118
O Adam, what have you done? For though it was you who sinned, the fall was not yours alone, but ours also who are your descendants.
119
For what good is it to us, if an immortal time has been promised to us, but we have done deeds that bring death?
120
And what good is it that an everlasting hope has been promised to us, but we have miserably failed?
121
Or that safe and healthful habitations have been reserved for us, but we have lived wickedly?
122
Or that the glory of the Most High will defend those who have led a pure life, but we have walked in the most wicked ways?
