| 4. Among these there was a tree of an unceasing smell; nor of those which were in Eden was there one of all the fragrant trees which smelt like this. Its leaf, its flower, and its bark never withered, and its fruit was beautiful. Its fruit resembled the cluster of the palm.
|
And among them was a tree such as I had never smelt before, neither among these nor among others; nor was there a fragrance like its; its leaves and buds and wood do not wither in eternity; its fruit is beautiful, like the fruit of the vine and the palm-tree.
|
And amongst them was a tree such as I had never yet smelt, neither was any amongst them nor were others like it: it had a fragrance beyond all fragrance, and its leaves and blooms and wood wither not for ever: and its fruit is beautiful, and its fruit resembles the dates of a palm.

Ibland dessa var ett träd af en oupphörlig lukt; och af alla som voro i Eden fanns ej något träd, som luktade såsom detta. Dess löf, dess blommor och dess bark vissnade aldrig, och dess frukt var skön. Dess frukt liknade palmens klase.
|
Och bland dem fanns ett med en doft, hvars like jag ännu aldrig hade känt och hvars blad och blommor icke vissna i evighet och vars ved aldrig multnar och vars frukter äro sköna och likna palmdruvor.
