And they ceased
not from prayer the whole of that night.
12 Then when the morning dawned at the rising of the
sun, they said their prayers after their custom; and then
went out of the cave.
13 And Adam said to Eve, "Since we don't know what there is
to the west of this cave, let us go out and see it today."
Then they came forth and went toward the western border.
Chapter LIII - The prophecy of the Western Lands
and of the great flood.
1 They were not very far from the cave, when Satan
came towards them, and hid himself between them and the
cave, under the form of two ravenous lions three days
without food, that came towards Adam and Eve, as if to
break them in pieces and devour them.
2 Then Adam and Eve cried, and prayed God to deliver
them from their paws.
3 Then the Word of God came to them, and drove away
the lions from them.
4 And God said to Adam, "O Adam, what do you seek on
the western border? And why have you left of thine own
accord the eastern border, in which was your living place?
5 Now then, turn back to your cave, and remain in it,
so that Satan won't deceive you or work his purpose over you.
