1 Adão e Eva 30

1Depois destas coisas, ordenou Deus ao anjo Gabriel que descesse ao jardim, e dissesse ao querubim que o guardava: Eis que Deus me ordenou vir ao jardim e tirar dele incenso de cheiro suave, e dá-lo a Adão.

1After these things, God commanded the angel Gabriel to go down to the garden, and say to the cherub who kept it, "Behold, God has commanded me to come into the garden, and to take from it sweet smelling incense, and give it to Adam."

2Então o anjo Gabriel desceu por ordem de Deus ao jardim, e falou ao querubim como Deus lhe havia mandado.

2Then the angel Gabriel went down by God's order to the garden, and told the cherub as God had commanded him.

3Disse então o querubim: Está bem. E Gabriel entrou e tomou o incenso.

3The cherub then said, "Well." And Gabriel went in and took the incense.

4Depois ordenou Deus ao seu anjo Rafael que descesse ao jardim e falasse ao querubim a respeito de mirra, para dá-la a Adão.

4Then God commanded his angel Raphael to go down to the garden, and speak to the cherub about some myrrh, to give to Adam.

5E o anjo Rafael desceu e falou ao querubim como Deus lhe havia ordenado, e o querubim disse: Está bem. Então Rafael entrou e tomou a mirra.

5And the angel Raphael went down and told the cherub as God had commanded him, and the cherub said, "Well." Then Raphael went in and took the myrrh.

6As varas de ouro eram do mar da Índia, onde há pedras preciosas. O incenso era do termo oriental do jardim; e a mirra, do termo ocidental, de onde a amargura sobreveio a Adão.

6The golden rods were from the Indian sea, where there are precious stones. The incense was from the eastern border of the garden; and the myrrh from the western border, from where bitterness came over Adam.

7E os anjos trouxeram estas coisas a Deus, junto à Árvore da Vida, no jardim.

7And the angels brought these things to God, by the Tree of Life, in the garden.

8Disse então Deus aos anjos: Mergulhai-as na fonte de água; depois tomai-as e aspergi a sua água sobre Adão e Eva, para que sejam consolados um pouco na sua tristeza, e dai-as a Adão e Eva.

8Then God said to the angels, "Dip them in the spring of water; then take them and sprinkle their water over Adam and Eve, that they be a little comforted in their sorrow, and give them to Adam and Eve.

9E fizeram os anjos como Deus lhes ordenara, e deram todas aquelas coisas a Adão e Eva no cume do monte em que Satanás os havia posto, quando procurava destruí-los.

9And the angels did as God had commanded them, and they gave all those things to Adam and Eve on the top of the mountain on which Satan had placed them, when he sought to make an end of them.

10E quando Adão viu as varas de ouro, o incenso e a mirra, alegrou-se e chorou, porque julgava que o ouro era um sinal do reino de onde viera, que o incenso era sinal da luz brilhante que lhe havia sido tirada, e que a mirra era sinal da dor em que se achava.

10And when Adam saw the golden rods, the incense and the myrrh, he was rejoiced and cried because he thought that the gold was a token of the kingdom from where he had come, that the incense was a token of the bright light which had been taken from him, and that the myrrh was a token of the sorrow in which he was.
