4 Because, when they came to Adam the first time,
there came over him from them, peace and joy, through their
bringing him good tokens; so Adam thought that they had
come a second time to give him other tokens for him to
rejoice therewith. For he did not know it was Satan;
therefore he received them with joy and consorted with
them.
5 Then Satan, the tallest of them, said, "Rejoice, O
Adam, and be glad. Look, God has sent us to you to tell
you something."
6 And Adam said, "What is it?" Then Satan answered,
"It is a simple thing, yet it is the Word of God, will you
accept it from us and do it? But if you will not accept
it, we will return to God, and tell Him that you would not
receive His Word."
7 And Satan said again to Adam, "Don't be afraid and
don't tremble; don't you know us?"
8 But Adam said, "I do not know you."
9 Then Satan said to him, "I am the angel that brought
you gold, and took it to the cave; this other angel is the
one that brought you incense; and that third angel, is the
one who brought you myrrh when you were on top of the
mountain, and who carried you to the cave.
