He Adds and Storehouse 16

And the Man said to herself: Now, bring to myself also a honeycomb of honey.
And Storehouse said: I will send away, master, to the Field of the Inheritance of myself and bring yourself a honeycomb of honey.
And the Man said to her: Enter the Inner Room of yourself, and you will find a honeycomb of honey.
And Storehouse entered the Inner Room of herself and found a honeycomb of honey on the table lying, and the Honeycomb was white as if snow and full of honey, and the Blowing Breeze of itself an smell of zoe-life.
And Storehouse took the Honeycomb and brought it to self/him, and the Man said to her: Why did you say there is no honeycomb of honey within the Household of myself? Behold, you have brought it to myself!
And Storehouse said: I did not carry, master, within the Household of myself a honeycomb, but as you spoke, so it became; surely this came forth from out of the Mouth of yourself, for the Blowing Breeze of it is like the Blowing Breeze of sweet oil.
And the Man stretched out the Hand of himself and took power over the Head of herself and said: Blessed are you, Storehouse, for the Forbidden Things of God have been uncovered to yourself, and blessed are those attached to master the God in within a change of mind, for from out of this Honeycomb they will eat!
For this Honey has been made by the Bees of the Enclosed Park of the Luxury, and the Angels of the God eat from out of it, and everyone who eats from it shall never die into the Eternal (aion) One!
And the Man stretched out the Right Hand of himself and broke off from the Honeycomb, and he ate, and gave with the Hand of himself from out of the Honeycomb into the Mouth of Storehouse.
And he stretched out the Hand of himself and placed the Finger of himself into the Peak of the Honeycomb looking throughout the risings/east, and the Road of the Finger of himself became into blood.
And he stretched out the second Hand of himself and placed the Finger of himself upon the Peak of the Honeycomb, the one looking toward the north wind, and the Road of the Finger of himself became as blood.
And Storehouse stood from out of the Good-Named-Left sides window and she contemplated all that the Man made.
And bees climbed up from the Cells of the Honeycomb, white as if snow, and the Wings of themselves were like purple and hyacinth and like spun threads of gold, and they had golden wreath-crowns on the Heads of themselves and sharp stingers.
συμπλέκω - Plait, entangle, entwine together
And all the Bees entangled to Storehouse away from feet until head, and other mega bees, like queens, prevailed to the Storehouse upon the Lips.
And the Man said to the Bees: Now, bring under into the Positions of yourselves.
And all departed away from the Storehouse and all fell upon the Earthly One, and died away.
One Position
And the Man said: Now stand up and bring under into the Position of yourselves. And they stood up and departed, all of them, toward the Courtyard lying beside the Storehouse.

Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἄνθρωπος· φέρε δή μοι καὶ κηρίον μέλιτος.

Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀσενέθ· ἀποστείλω, κύριε, εἰς τὸν ἀγρὸν τῆς κληρονομίας μου καὶ οἴσω σοι κηρίον μέλιτος.

Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἄνθρωπος· εἴσελθε εἰς τὸν θάλαμόν σου καὶ εὑρήσεις κηρίον μέλιτος.

Καὶ εἰσῆλθεν Ἀσενὲθ εἰς τὸν θάλαμον αὐτῆς καὶ εὗρε κηρίον μέλιτος ἐπὶ τῆς τραπέζης κείμενον, καὶ ἦν τὸ κηρίον λευκὸν ὡσεὶ χιὼν καὶ πλήρης μέλιτος καὶ ἡ πνοὴ αὐτοῦ ὀσμὴ ζωῆς.

Καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἀσενὲθ τὸ κηρίον καὶ ἤνεγκεν αὐτῷ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἄνθρωπος· τί ὅτι εἶπας ὅτι οὐκ ἔστι κηρίον μέλιτος ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ μου; καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐνήνοχάς μοι αὐτό.

Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀσενέθ· οὐκ ἔσχον, κύριε, ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ μου κηρίον μέλιτος, ἀλλ᾽ ὡς εἶπας γέγονε· μήτιγε τοῦτο ἐκ τοῦ στόματός σου ἐξῆλθε, διότι ἡ πνοὴ αὐτοῦ ὡς πνοὴ μύρου ἐστί.

Καὶ ἐξέτεινε τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ὁ ἄνθρωπος καὶ ἐκράτησε τὴν κεφαλὴν αὐτῆς καὶ εἶπε· μακαρία εἶ σύ, Ἀσενέθ, ὅτι ἀπεκαλύφθη σοι τὰ ἀπόρρητα τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ μακάριοι οἱ προσκείμενοι κυρίῳ τῷ θεῷ ἐν μετανοίᾳ, ὅτι ἐκ τούτου τοῦ κηρίου φάγονται.

διότι τὸ μέλι τοῦτο πεποιήκασιν αἱ μέλισσαι τοῦ παραδείσου τῆς τρυφῆς, καὶ οἱ ἄγγελοι τοῦ θεοῦ ἐξ αὐτοῦ ἐσθίουσι, καὶ πᾶς ὃς φάγεται ἐξ αὐτοῦ οὐκ ἀποθανεῖται εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα.

Καὶ ἐξέτεινε τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ ὁ ἄνθρωπος τὴν δεξιὰν καὶ ἀπέκλασεν ἐκ τοῦ κηρίου, καὶ ἔφαγε καὶ ἔδωκε τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἐκ τοῦ κηρίου εἰς τὸ στόμα Ἀσενέθ.

Καὶ ἐξέτεινε τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐπέθηκεν τὸν δάκτυλον αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ κηρίου τοῦ βλέποντος κατὰ ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἡ ὁδὸς τοῦ δακτύλου αὐτοῦ ἐγένετο εἰς αἷμα.

Καὶ ἐξέτεινε τὴν χεῖρα αὐτοῦ τὸ δεύτερον καὶ ἔθηκε τὸν δάκτυλον αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ κηρίου τοῦ βλέποντος πρὸς βορρᾶν καὶ ἐγένετο ἡ ὁδὸς τοῦ δακτύλου ὡς αἷμα.

Καὶ εἱστήκει Ἀσενὲθ ἐξ εὐωνύμων καὶ ἐθεώρει πάντα ὅσα ἐποίει ὁ ἄνθρωπος.

Καὶ ἀνέβησαν μέλισσαι ἐκ τῶν σίμβλων τοῦ κηρίου καὶ ἦσαν λευκαὶ ὡσεὶ χιὼν καὶ αἱ πτέρυγες αὐτῶν ὡς πορφύρα καὶ ὡς ὑάκινθος καὶ ὡσεὶ νήματα χρυσοῦ καὶ ἦσαν διαδήματα χρυσᾶ ἐπὶ τὰς κεφαλὰς αὐτῶν καὶ κέντρα ὀξέα.

Καὶ συνεπλάκησαν πᾶσαι αἱ μέλισσαι τῇ Ἀσενὲθ ἀπὸ ποδῶν ἕως κεφαλῆς καὶ ἄλλαι μέλισσαι μεγάλαι ὡς βασίλισσαι ἐκράτησαν τῇ Ἀσενὲθ ἐπὶ τὰ χείλη.

εἶπεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ταῖς μελίσσαις· ὑπάγετε δὴ εἰς τοὺς τόπους ὑμῶν.

Καὶ ἀπῆλθον πᾶσαι ἀπὸ τῆς Ἀσενὲθ καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν πᾶσαι καὶ ἀπέθανον.

Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ ἄνθρωπος· ἀνάστητε δὴ καὶ ἀπέλθατε εἰς τὸν τόπον ὑμῶν. Καὶ ἀνέστησαν καὶ ἀπῆλθον ἅπασαι πρὸς τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν παρακειμένην τῇ Ἀσενέθ.
