12 Strengthen your heart, and be not afraid. This
darkness is not a punishment. But, O Adam, I have made the
day, and have placed the sun in it to give light; in order
that you and your children should do your work.
13 For I knew you would sin and transgress, and come
out into this land. Yet I wouldn't force you, nor be heard
over you, nor shut up; nor doom you through your fall; nor
through your coming out from light into darkness; nor yet
through your coming from the garden into this land.
14 For I made you of the light; and I willed to bring
out children of light from you and like to you.
15 But you did not keep My commandment one day; until
I had finished the creation and blessed everything in it.
16 Then, concerning the tree, I commanded you not to
eat of it. Yet I knew that Satan, who deceived himself,
would also deceive you.
17 So I made known to you by means of the tree, not to
come near him. And I told you not to eat of the fruit
thereof, nor to taste of it, nor yet to sit under it, nor
to yield to it.
