adam 9

And after these words... 

God made a three-cornered seal, and sealed the tomb...

that no one should do anything to him in the six days...

until his rib should return to him. 

And the beneficent God and the holy angels having laid him in his place...

after the six days Eve also died. 

And while she lived, she wept about her falling asleep...

because she knew not where her body was to be laid. 

For when the Lord was present in paradise when they buried Adam... 

both she and her children fell asleep, except Seth, as I said. 

And Eve, in the hour of her death, besought [smeekte]...

that she might be buried where Adam her husband was, saying thus: 

My Lord, Lord and God of all virtue, do not separate me, Your servant...

from the body of Adam, for of his members You made me. 

But grant to me, even me, the unworthy and the sinner, to be buried by his body. 

And as I was along with him in paradise, and not separated from him after the transgression...

so also let no one separate us. 

After having prayed, therefore, she looked up into heaven... 

and stood up, and said, beating her breast: God of all, receive my spirit. 

And straightway she gave up her spirit to God.

-

And when she was dead... 

the archangel Michael stood beside her. 

And there came three angels, and took her body...

and buried it where the body of Abel was. 

Shiva (2008)

And the archangel Michael said to Seth: 

Thus bury every man that dies, until the day of the resurrection. 

And after having given this Law, he said to him: 

Do not mourn beyond six days. 

And on the seventh day, rest and rejoice in it... 

because in it, God and we the angels rejoice... 

in the righteous soul that has departed from earth. 

Having thus spoken, the archangel Michael went up into heaven, glorifying, and saying the Alleluia: Holy, holy, holy Lord, to the glory of God the Father, because to Him is due glory, honour, and adoration, with His unbeginning and life-giving Spirit, now and forever, and to the ages of ages. 

Amen.
