and to soil you will return.’
20 καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Αδαμ

τῷ Αδαμ καὶ τῇ γυναικὶ αὐτοῦ
for Adam and his wife

22 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ θεός
And God said:
Ἰδοὺ Αδαμ γέγονεν
‘See, Adam has become
ὡς εἷς ἐξ ἡμῶν
like one of us
τοῦ γινώσκειν καλὸν καὶ πονηρόν,
in knowing good and bad,
καὶ νῦν μήποτε
and now, may he never

καὶ ἔταξεν τὰ χερουβιμ
and he placed the cherubim
καὶ τὴν φλογίνην ῥομφαίαν
and the flaming sword
τὴν στρεφομένην
which was wheeling round
φυλάσσειν τὴν ὁδὸν
to guard the way
τοῦ ξύλου τῆς ζωῆς.
