We no
longer belong to the inhabitants of the garden; but from
now on we are earthy and of the dust, and of the
inhabitants of the earth. We shall not return to the
garden, until the day in which God has promised to save us,
and to bring us again into the garden, as He promised us."
10 Then they prayed to God that He would have mercy on
them; after which, their mind was quieted, their hearts
were broken, and their longing was cooled down; and they
were like strangers on earth. That night Adam and Eve
spent in the cave, where they slept heavily by reason of
the food they had eaten.
Chapter LXVI - Adam does his first day's work.
1 When it was morning, the day after they had eaten
food, Adam and Eve prayed in the cave, and Adam said to
Eve, "Look, we asked for food of God, and He gave it. But
now let us also ask Him to give us a drink of water."
2 Then they got up, and went to the bank of the stream
of water, that was on the south border of the garden, in
which they had before thrown themselves. And they stood on
the bank, and prayed to God that He would command them to
drink of the water.
