If a woman is suckling a child she should not join her husband while the child is awake, nor give it suck afterwards until time enough has elapsed for walking two miles, or one mile if the child cries for milk. If all this is done, Lilith will never be able to harm them.
Happy are the righteous whom God has taught the secrets of the Torah, of heaven and earth, and all for the sake of the Torah, for whoever studies the Torah is crowned with the crowns of the holy Name, and knows secret ways and the mysteries of heaven and earth, and never comes to harm.
מַאן דְּיַנְקָא לְרַבְיָּא, לָא תִּזְדַּוִּוג לְבַר נָשׁ, אֶלָּא בְּשַׁעֲתָא דְּרַבְיָא נָאִים. וּלְבָתַר לָא תָּנִיק לֵיהּ, עַד שַׁעֲתָא חֲדָא, כִּתְרֵין מִילִּין, אוֹ חַד מִיל, אִי לָא יַכְלָא בְּגִין צַעֲרָא דְּרַבְיָא, בְּזִמְנָא דְּאִיהוּ בָּכֵי. וּבְדָא לָא מִסְתָּפֵי מִנָּהּ לְעָלְמִין.
