4 And they thought how they could make garments of
those skins; for they had no skill for it.
5 Then God sent to them His angel to show them how to
work it out. And the angel said to Adam, "Go forth, and
bring some palm-thorns." Then Adam went out, and brought
some, as the angel had commanded him.
6 Then the angel began before them to work out the
skins, after the manner of one who prepares a shirt. And
he took the thorns and stuck them into the skins, before
their eyes.
7 Then the angel again stood up and prayed God that
the thorns in those skins should be hidden, so as to be, as
it were, sewn with one thread.
8 And so it was, by God's order; they became garments
for Adam and Eve, and He clothed them therewith.
9 From that time the nakedness of their bodies was
covered from the sight of each other's eyes.
10 And this happened at the end of the fifty-first day.
11 Then when Adam's and Eve's bodies were covered,
they stood and prayed, and sought mercy of the Lord, and
forgiveness, and gave Him thanks for that He had had mercy
on them, and had covered their nakedness.
