made us fit to be in the garden; and before I transgressed,
You made all beasts come to me, that I should name them.

4 Your grace was then on me; and I named every one according
to Your mind; and you made them all subject to me.

5 But now, O Lord God, that I have transgressed Your
commandment, all beasts will rise against me and will
devour me, and Eve Your handmaid; and will cut off our life
from the face of the earth.

6 I therefore beg you, O God, that since You have made
us come out of the garden, and have made us be in a strange
land, You will not let the beasts hurt us."

7 When the Lord heard these words from Adam, He had
pity on him, and felt that he had truly said that the
beasts of the field would rise and devour him and Eve,
because He, the Lord, was angry with the two of them on
account of their transgressions.

8 Then God commanded the beasts, and the birds, and
all that moves on the earth, to come to Adam and to be
familiar with him, and not to trouble him and Eve; nor yet
any of the good and righteous among their offspring.

9 Then all the beasts paid homage to Adam, according
to the commandment of God; except the serpent, against
which God was angry. It did not come to Adam, with the beasts.
