Looking for ideas to decipher a strange text

I found a short text in the belongings of my late father 13 years ago. He was a learned man, passionate about science, history, and esotericism.

Since that time I have tried to decipher the text and to find its origin. 13 years ago, I posted the text in the r/linguistics subreddit  and I received very valuable hints which helped me to find that the text was very likely written in a strangely transliterated Hebrew and linked to Kabbalah. I didn't make progress since 13 years and a few days ago I tried to use AI assistants to try to go further. That was quite an interesting experience and I got a few more hints. Now I am posting to the r/Esotericism community with the hope that it will ring a bell to someone.

The text is:

Nêm Jabad' aod 
An' g' aïl Kêmon r' lud ha Nêm - Jabad' aod 
Adam - Kêmon Jesseoth' Kêm - adamon
An' g' aïl eleh Nêm - Jabad' aod
Aon Necham Kheveoth' mi Kêmon
An' g' aïl Kebur nistar han' aod
An' g' aïl mi' soforoth' aïn - Kêmon
An' g' aïl Kêmon Thot' han Gêon Kaoth'
Or Kadima Kheveoth' Kemonah Kearim
Yenoch' hasra-maïm Am' Ani debekeoth
Kheveoth' hou Galuth hau Jeru-Elohim

We can identify: 

  • Adam Kemon is probably Adam Kadmon: the original human
  • Or Kadima: the original light
  • Soforoth is probably Sephirot
  • Jessseoth is probably Yesod - The foundation in the kabbalistic tree of life
  • Maïm is the water
  • Gêon could be Gaon - Glory / majesty
  • Aïn could be the Divine Nothingness
  • Galuth is probably the exile
  • Elohim is God

I also found a list of Hebrew vocabulary in my father's papers that seems to be related with the text.

All together the text seems to point to the Kabbalah, "An' g' aïl" seems to be an incantation which is repeated over and over. Gemini suggested that it could be something related to a freemason prayer.

Any idea would be very welcome.
