Chapter XXXII - Adam and Eve go into the water to pray.
1 And Adam and Eve remained in the Cave of Treasures
until the seventh day; they neither ate of the fruit the
earth, nor drank water.
2 And when it dawned on the eighth day, Adam said to
Eve, "O Eve, we prayed God to give us something from the
garden, and He sent his angels who brought us what we had
desired.
3 But now, get up, let us go to the sea of water we
saw at first, and let us stand in it, praying that God will
again be favorable to us and take us back to the garden; or
give us something; or that He will give us comfort in some
other land than this in which we are."
4 Then Adam and Eve came out of the cave, went and
stood on the border of the sea in which they had before
thrown themselves, and Adam said to Eve:--
5 Come, go down into this place, and come not out of
it until the end of thirty days, when I shall come to you.
And pray to God with burning heart and a sweet voice, to
forgive us.
6 And I will go to another place, and go down into it,
and do like you.
