Segment 1א׳

סִתְּרָא דְסִתְּרִין, מִגּוֹ דְתּוּקְפָּא דְטִיהֲרָא דְיִצְּחָק (נפק), מִגּוֹ דוּרְדַּיָא דְחַמְרָא, נָפַּק חַד נְעִיצּוּ קְטִירָא, כָּלִיל חַד דְּכַר וְנוּקְבָא, סוּמְקָא כְּוַורְדָא, מִתְּפָּרְשָׁן לְכַמָּה סִטְרִין וּשְׁבִילִין. דְּכוּרָא אִקְרֵי סמאל, נוּקְבֵיהּ כְּלִילָא בְּגַוִּיהּ תָּדִיר. כְּמָה דְאִיהוּ בִּסְטַר קְדוּשָׁה, הָכִי נָמֵי בְּסִטְרָא אָחֳרָא, דְּכַר וְנוּקְבָא כְּלִילָן דָּא בְּדָא. נוּקְבָא דִּסמאל, נָחָשׁ, אִקְרֵי אשתּ זְנוּנִים, (בראשית י) קֵץ כָּל בָּשָׂר, קֵץ הַיָּמִים.

The secret of secrets: from within the force of the midday of Isaac, from within the lees of the wine, there went forth a certain knotted implantation, comprising together male and female, red as a rose, branching out into many sides and paths. The male is called Samael; his female is comprised within him always. As it is on the side of holiness, so also on the other side: male and female comprised one within the other. The female of Samael, a serpent, is called “a wife of harlotry”, “the end of all flesh” (Gen. 10), “the end of days”.

Segment 2ב׳

תְּרֵין רוּחִין בִּישִׁין מִתְּדַּבְּקָן כְּחֲדָא, רוּחָא דִדְכוּרָא דַּקִּיק. רוּחָא דְּנוּקְבָא, בְּכַמָּה אוֹרְחִין וּשְׁבִילִין מִתְּפַּרְשָׁא, וּמִתְּדַּבְּקָא בְּהַהוּא רוּחא דִּדְכוּרָא. קַשִׁיטַתּ גַּרְמָהּ בְּכַמָּה תַּכְשִׁיטִין סִתְּרָא (ס"א סטרא) דְרָזָא כְּזוֹנָה, מְרַחֲקָא קָיְימַתּ בְּרֵישׁ אוֹרְחִין וּשְׁבִילִין, לְפַּתָּאָה בְּנֵי נָשָׁא.

Two evil spirits cleave together: the spirit of the male is fine, while the spirit of the female spreads out into many ways and paths and cleaves to that spirit of the male. She adorns herself with many ornaments — the secret of the mystery — like a harlot, and stands afar off at the head of the ways and the paths, to entice the sons of men.

Segment 3ג׳

שַׁטְיָא דְּקָרִיב בַּהֲדָהּ, אַתְּקִיפַּתּ בֵּיהּ וְנַשְׁקַתּ לֵיהּ, מָסְכַתּ לֵיהּ חַמְרָא דְּדוּרְדַיָא, דִּמְרוֹרַתּ פְּתָּנִים. כֵּיוָן דְּשָׁתֵּי, אַסְטֵי אֲבַתְּרָהּ, לְבָתַּר דְּחָמַאתּ לֵיהּ סָטֵי אֲבַתְּרָהּ מֵאוֹרְחָא דִקְשׁוֹט, אַפְּשִׁיטַתּ גַּרְמָהּ מִכָּל אִינוּן תִּקּוּנִין דְּהֲוַתּ מִתְּתַּקְנָא לְגַבֵּי דְהַהוּא שַׁטְיָא.

The fool who draws near her — she takes hold of him and kisses him, and pours him wine of the lees, the gall of asps. As soon as he drinks he turns aside after her. Afterwards, when she sees that he has turned aside after her from the way of truth, she strips herself of all those adornments with which she had adorned herself for that fool.
