Emerald Tablet

This is the version we include in Tarot and Kabbalah. It is also the version that is quoted in the Exorcism of the Water.

It is true, no lie, certain, and to be
depended upon, the Superior agrees with
the Inferior, and the Inferior with the
Superior, to effect that one truly wonderful
work. As all things owe their existence
to the Will of the Only One, so all things
owe their origin to the One Only Thing,
the most hidden, by the arrangement of
the only God. The Father of that one only
thing is the Sun, its Mother is the Moon;
the Wind carries it in its belly, but its nurse
is a spiritous Earth. That One Only Thing
(after God) is the Father of all things in the
Universe. Its power is perfect after it has
been united to a spiritous Earth. Separate
that spiritous Earth from the dense or
crude by means of a gentle heat with much
attention. In Great Measure it ascends
from the Earth up to Heaven and descends
again, newborn, on the Earth, and the
Superior and the Inferior are increased
in Power. By this wilt thou partake of
the Honours of the whole world. And
darkness will fly from thee. This is the
Strength of all Powers. With this thou
wilt be able to overcome all things, and
to transmute all what is fine and what is
coarse. In this manner the world was created;
the arrangements to follow this road
are hidden. For this reason I am called
Chiram Telat Mechasot, One in essence,
but Three in aspect. In this trinity is
hidden the wisdom of the whole world. It is
ended now, what I have said concerning
the effects of the Sun.
