Engelse vertaling
Melker declared to John, “I have always kept these words in my heart; it was difficult for me to speak them here, but now that I have spoken, let it be known to all: Adam...” he had not forgotten; Melker said, ‘I have seen a great and majestic being, and I have entered Paradise and established a throne there, and I have received the reward of the righteous from the Most High.’
But he committed a sin; he disobeyed Him, and thus he was cast out from Paradise, and this is the consequence of his disobedience. I ask for the grace of that noble one, the most generous, the one who clothes the souls in light. He is the one who created us, and I ask for the light of that noble one, the one who created us, to illuminate my heart through the Almighty.

dr trı cmı ḥau an nuḳ yā rānı nnḳ aul ḥau anā bı ḳım ādem ḳun mdn raḥmete ınā bı mnh sumīdī ' He created Adam from clay, shaping him with His mercy,
and He created him with mercy.
He also created the soul of the beloved
and placed it in the head of the human
and called it the merciful one.
