The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 1
1:1 1:1 The words of the blessing of Enoch where-with he blessed the chosen and just, who will	RHC	RL
1:2exist on the day of tribulation when all the wicked and impious shall be removed.1:2 And then answered and spoke Enoch, a just man, whose eyes were opened by God so that he saw a holy vision in the heavens, which the angels showed to me, and from them I heard everything, and I knew what I saw, but not for this generation, but for the far-off generations which are	RHC	RL
1:3to come.1:3 Concerning the chosen I spoke and conversed concerning them with the Holy and Great One, who will come from his abode,	RHC	RL
1:4the God of the world.1:4 And from there he will step on to Mount Sinai, and appear with his hosts, and appear in the strength of his power from heaven.	RHC	RL
1:5 1:5 And all will fear, and the watchers will tremble, and great fear and terror will seize them to the ends of the earth.	RHC	RL
1:6 1:6 And the exalted mountains will be shaken, and the high hills will be lowered, and will melt like wax before the flame.	RHC	RL
1:7 1:7 And the earth will be submerged, and everything that is on the earth will be destroyed, and there will be a judgment upon every thing, and upon all the just.	RHC	RL
1:8 1:8 But to the just he will give peace, and will protect the chosen, and mercy will abide over them, and they will all be God�s, and will be prosperous and blessed, and the light of God will shine for them.	RHC	RL
1:9 1:9 And behold, he comes with myriads of the holy to pass judgment upon them, and will destroy the impious, and will call to account all flesh for everything the sinners and the impious have done and committed against him.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 2 {Top}
2:1 2:1 I observed everything that took place in the heavens, how the luminaries, which are in the heavens, do not depart from their paths, that each one rises and sets in order, each in its time, and	RHC	RL
2:2they do not depart from their laws.2:2 See the earth and observe the things that are done on it, from the first to the last, how no work of God is irregular in appearing.	RHC	RL
2:3 2:3 See the summer and the winter, how then the whole earth is full of water, and clouds and dew and rain rest over it.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 3 {Top}
3:1 3:1 I observed and saw how then all the trees appeared as if withered, and all their leaves are shaken off, except fourteen trees, whose leaves are not shaken off, but which abide with the old from two to three years, till the new come.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 4 {Top}
4:1 4:1 And again I observed the days of summer, how the sun is then above it [i.e. the earth], opposite to it, but ye seek cool and shady places on account of the heat of the sun, and the earth also burns with fervent heat, but ye cannot step on the earth or on a rock because of their heat.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 5 {Top}
5:1 5:1 I observed how the trees cover themselves with the green of the leaves and bear fruit; but observe ye all this and learn how he who lives forever has made all these for you;	RHC	RL
5:2 5:2 how his works are before him in every year that comes, and all his works serve him and are not changed, but as God has ordained, so everything takes place.	RHC	RL
5:3 5:3 And see how the seas and the rivers together accomplish their work.	RHC	RL
5:4 5:4 But ye have not persevered and have not done the commandment of the Lord, but have transgressed, and have slandered his greatness with high and hard words from your unclean mouths. Ye hard-hearted, ye will have no peace.	RHC	RL
5:5 5:5 And therefore ye will curse your days, and the years of your lives perish; the everlasting curse will increase and ye will receive no mercy.	RHC	RL
5:6 5:6 On that day ye will give away your peace for an everlasting curse to all the just, and they will ever curse you as sinners, you together with the sinners.	RHC	RL
5:7 5:7 but for the chosen there will be light and joy and peace, and they will inherit the earth, but for you, the impious, there will be a curse.	RHC	RL
5:8 5:8 And then also wisdom will be given to the chosen, and they will all live and not continue to sin; neither through wickedness nor through pride; but they in whom there is wisdom will be humble	RHC	RL
5:9without continuing to sin.5:9 And they will not be punished all the days of their lives, and will not die through plagues or judgments of wrath, but the number of the days of their lives will be completed, and their lives will become old in peace, and the years of their joy will be many in everlasting happiness and peace, for all the days of their lives.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 6 {Top}
6:1 6:1 And it came to pass, after the children of men had increased in those days,	RHC	RL
6:2beautiful and comely daughters were born to them.6:2 And the angels, the sons of the heavens, saw and lusted after them, and said one to another: "Behold, we will choose for ourselves wives from among the children of men,	RHC	RL
6:3and will beget for ourselves children."6:3 And Semjaza, who was their leader, said to them: "I fear that perhaps ye will not	RHC	RL
6:4be willing to do this deed, and I alone shall suffer for this great sin."6:4 Then all answered him and said: "We all will swear an oath, and bind ourselves mutually by a curse,	RHC	RL
6:5that we will not give up this plan, but will make this plan a deed."6:5 Then they all swore together, and bound themselves	RHC	RL
6:6mutually by a curse; and together they were two hundred.6:6 And they descended on Ard�s, which is the summit of Mount Hermon; and they called it Mount Hermon, because they had sworn	RHC	RL
6:7on it and bound themselves mutually by a curse.6:7 And these are the names of their leaders: Semjaza, who was their leader, Urakibarameel, Akibeel, Tamiel, Ramuel, Danel, Ezeqeel, Saraqujal,	RHC	RL
6:8Asael, Armers, Batraal, Anan�, Zaqebe, Samsaveel, Sartael, Turel, Jomjael, Arazjal. 6:8 These are the leaders of the two hundred angels, and the others all were with them.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 7 {Top}
7:1 7:1 And they took unto themselves wives, and each chose for himself one, and they began to go in to them, and mixed with them, and taught them charms	RHC	RL
7:2and conjurations, and made them acquainted with the cutting of roots and of woods.7:2 And they	RHC	RL
7:3became pregnant and brought forth great giants whose stature was three thousand ells.7:3 These devoured	RHC	RL
7:4all the acquisitions of mankind till men were unable to sustain themselves.7:4 And the giants turned themselves against mankind	RHC	RL
7:5in order to devour them.7:5 And they began to sin against the birds and the beasts, and against the creeping things, and the	RHC	RL
7:6fish, and devoured their flesh among themselves, and drank the blood thereof.7:6 Then the earth complained of the unjust ones.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 8 {Top}
8:1 8:1 And Azazel taught mankind to make swords and knives and shields and coats of mail, and taught them to see what was behind them, and their works of art: bracelets and ornaments, and the use of rouge, and the beautifying of the eye-brows, and the dearest and choicest stones and all	RHC	RL
8:2coloring substances and the metals of the earth.8:2 And there was great wickedness and much fornication, and they	RHC	RL
8:3sinned, and all their ways were corrupt.8:3 Amezarak taught all the conjurers and root-cutters, Armar�s the loosening of conjurations, Baraq�al the astrologers, K�kabel the signs, and Temel taught astrology, and Asradel taught the course of the moon. 8:4 And in the destruction of mankind, they cried aloud, and their voices reached heaven.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 9 {Top}
9:1 9:1 Then Michael and Gabriel and Surjan and Urjan looked down from heaven and saw the great amount of blood which had been spilled on the earth, and all the wickedness which had been committed over the earth.	RHC	RL
9:2 9:2 And they said to one another: "The emptied earth re-echoes the sound of their [i.e. mankind�s] cries up to the gates of heaven.	RHC	RL
9:3 9:3 And now to you, O ye holy ones of heaven, cry the souls of men, saying: �Secure us judgment	RHC	RL
9:4before the Most High.�9:4 And they spoke to their Lord, to the King: �O Lord of lords, God of gods, King of kings, the throne of thy majesty is among all the generations of the	RHC	RL
9:5world, and thy name, holy and glorious, among all the generations of the world. Thou art blessed and praised! 9:5 Thou hast made all things and all power is with thee, all things are open before thee and uncovered, and thou seest all	RHC	RL
9:6things and nothing can hide itself from thee. 9:6 See then what Azazel has done, how he has taught all wickedness on earth and has revealed the secrets of the world which were prepared in the heavens.	RHC	RL
9:7 9:7 And Semjaza to whom thou hast given the power to be chief of his associates has made known conjurations. 9:8 And they have gone together to the daughters of men and have slept with them, with those	RHC	RL
9:9women, and have defiled themselves, and have revealed to them these sins.9:9 And the women have	RHC	RL
9:10brought forth giants, and thereby the whole earth has been filled with blood and wickedness.9:10 And now, behold, the souls which have died cry and lament to the gates of heaven, and their groans ascend, and they are not able to escape from the wickedness which is	RHC	RL
9:11committed on the earth.9:11 And thou knowest everything before it comes to pass, and thou knowest this and their circumstances, and yet thou dost not speak to us. What shall we therefore do in regard to this?"	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 10 {Top}
10:1 10:1 Then the Most High, the Great and Holy One, spoke and sent Arsjalalj�r to the son of Lamech,	RHC	RL
10:2and said to him:10:2 Tell him in my name: �Hide thyself!� and reveal to him the end which is to come. For the whole earth will be destroyed, and the water of the deluge is about to come	RHC	RL
10:3over the whole earth, and what is upon it will be destroyed.10:3 And now instruct him that he may escape	RHC	RL
10:4and his seed remain on the whole earth."10:4 And again the Lord spoke to Rufael: "Bind Azazel hand and foot, and put him in the darkness; make an opening	RHC	RL
10:5in the desert, which is in Dudael, and put him there.10:5 And lay upon him rough and pointed rocks, and cover him with darkness that he may remain there forever, and cover his face that he may	RHC	RL
10:6not see the light!10:6 And on the great day of judgment he will be cast into the fire.10:7 And heal the earth which the angels have defiled, and announce the healing of the earth that I will heal it, and that not all the sons of men shall be destroyed through the mystery of all the things which the	RHC	RL
10:8watchers have spoken and have taught their sons.10:8 And the whole earth was defiled	RHC	RL
10:9through the example of the deeds of Azazel; to him ascribe all the sins."10:9 And God said to Gabriel: "Go against the bastards and those cast off and against the children of fornication, and destroy the children of fornication and the children of the watchers from among men; lead them out, and let them loose that they may destroy each other by	RHC	RL
10:10murder; for their days shall not be long.10:10 And they will all supplicate thee, but their fathers will secure nothing for them, although they expect an everlasting life, and	RHC	RL
10:11that each one of them will live five hundred years."10:11 And God said to Michael: "Announce to Semjaza and to the others who are with him, who have bound themselves to women, to be destroyed	RHC	RL
10:12with them in all their contamination.10:12 When all their sons shall have slain one another, and they shall have seen the destruction of their beloved ones, bind them under the hills of the earth for seventy generations, till the day of their judgment and of their end, till the last judgment has	RHC	RL
10:13been passed for all eternity.10:13 And in those days they will be led to the abyss of fire,	RHC	RL
10:14in torture and in prison they will be locked for all eternity,10:14 And then he will burn, and be destroyed; they will be burned together from now on to the end of all	RHC	RL
10:15generations.10:15 And destroy all souls of lust and the children of the watchers, because	RHC	RL
10:16they have oppressed mankind.10:16 Destroy all oppression from the face of the earth, and all wicked deeds shall cease, and the plant of justice and righteousness shall appear, and deeds will become a blessing: justice and righteousness will be planted in joy forever.	RHC	RL
10:17 10:17 Then all the just will bend the knee, and they will remain alive till they beget a thousand children, and they will complete all the days of their youth and their sabbath in peace.	RHC	RL
10:18 10:18 And in those days the whole earth will be worked in justice, and will all be planted with trees, and	RHC	RL
10:19will be full of blessings.10:19 And all the trees of desire will be planted on it, and vines will be planted on it; the vine planted on it will bear fruit in abundance. And of all the seed sown on it one measure will bear ten thousand, and one measure of olives will make	RHC	RL
10:20ten presses of oil.10:20 And cleanse thou the earth of all oppression and all injustice and all sin and all wickedness and all uncleanness which are produced on the earth:	RHC	RL
10:21eradicate them from the earth. 10:21 And all the children of men shall become just, and all the nations	RHC	RL
10:22shall worship me as God, and bless and all will worship me.10:22 And the earth will be cleansed of all corruption and all sin and all punishment and all torment, and I will never again send a flood upon it, from generation to generation, to eternity."	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 11 {Top}
11:1 11:1 And in those days I will open the store-rooms of blessings which are in heaven, in order to bring	RHC	RL
11:2them down upon the earth, upon the deeds and labor of the children of men.11:2 Peace and rectitude will become associates in all the days of the world, and in all the generations of the world."	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 12 {Top}
12:112:1 And previous to all these things Enoch was hidden, and not one of the children of men knew where he was	RHC	RL
12:2hidden, and where he was, and what had become of him.12:2 And all his deeds were with the holy ones and with the watchers in his days.	RHC	RL
12:3 12:3 And I, Enoch, was praising the great Lord and the King of the world, and, behold, the watchers	RHC	RL
12:4called to me, Enoch, the scribe, and said to me:12:4 Enoch, thou scribe of justice, go, announce to the watchers of heaven, who have left the high heaven and the holy, eternal place, and have contaminated themselves with women, and have done as the children of men do, and have taken to themselves	RHC	RL
12:5wives, and are contaminated in great contamination upon the earth.12:5 But upon earth they shall have no peace, nor forgiveness	RHC	RL
12:6of sin; for they will not enjoy their children.12:6 They will see the murder of their beloved ones, and they will lament over the destruction of their children, and will petition to eternity, but mercy and peace will not be unto them."	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 13 {Top}
13:1 13:1 And Enoch, departing, said to Azazel: "Thou wilt have no peace; a great condemnation has come	RHC	RL
13:2upon thee, and he [i.e. Rufael, cf. 10:4] will bind thee;13:2 and alleviation and intercession and mercy will not be unto thee, because thou hast taught oppression, and because of all the deeds of abuse,	RHC	RL
13:3oppression, and sin which thou hast showed to the children of men."13:3 And then going, I spoke to them all	RHC	RL
13:4together; and they were all afraid, fear and trembling seized them.13:4 And they asked me to write a memorial petition for them that they thereby might attain forgiveness, and to carry their memorial petition before	RHC	RL
13:5God into heaven.13:5 For they could not, from now on, speak with him, nor could they raise their	RHC	RL
13:6eyes towards heaven from shame on account of their sins for which they were being punished.13:6 Then I wrote this memorial petition, and prayed with reference to their souls and for each of their deeds, and for that which	RHC	RL
13:7they had asked of me, that they thereby might obtain forgiveness and patience.13:7 And going I sat down near the waters of Dan in Dan, which is to the right [i.e. south] of the evening side [i.e. west] of Hermon, and read their memorial petition till I fell	RHC	RL
13:8asleep.13:8 And, behold, a dream came to me, and visions fell upon me, and I saw the vision of chastisement to show to the sons of heaven, and to upbraid them.	RHC	RL
13:9 13:9 And having become awake I went to them, and they were all sitting assembled lamenting at	RHC	RL
13:10Ublesjael, which is between the Lebanon and Seneser, with their faces covered.13:10 And I related before them all the visions that I had seen in my sleep, and commenced to speak those words of justice and to upbraid the watchmen of heaven.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 14 {Top}
14:1 14:1 This writing is the word of justice and the admonition of the watchers, who are from eternity, as	RHC	RL
14:2the Holy and Great One commanded it in this vision.14:2 I saw in my sleep what I now will relate with a tongue of flesh and with my breath, which the Great One has given to the mouth of men that they might	RHC	RL
14:3converse with it and understand it in their hearts.14:3 As he has created and given to men the power to understand the word of knowledge, thus also he has created me and given to me the power to upbraid	RHC	RL
14:4the watchers, the sons of heaven.14:4 I have written your petition, and in my vision it appeared to me thus, that your petition will not be granted in all the days of the world, and that judgment	RHC	RL
14:5has been passed over you, and nothing will be granted unto you.14:5 And from now on ye will not ascend into heaven to all eternity, and upon earth, it has been decreed,	RHC	RL
14:6they shall bind you for all the days of the world.14:6 But before this ye will have seen the destruction of your beloved children, and ye will not be able to possess them, but they shall fall before	RHC	RL
14:7you by the sword.14:7 Your petition for them will not be granted unto you, nor the one for yourselves; and while ye are weeping and praying ye cannot speak a single word from the writing which I have	RHC	RL
14:8written."14:8 And the vision appeared to me thus: behold, clouds in the vision invited me and a fog invited me; and the course of the stars and lightning drove and pressed me, and the winds in	RHC	RL
14:9the vision gave me wings and drove me.14:9 And they lifted me up into heaven, and I went till I approached near a wall which was built of crystals and a tongue of fire surrounded it; and it began to cause me to fear.	RHC	RL
14:10 14:10 And I went into the tongue of fire and approached near to a large house, which was built of crystals, and the walls of this house were like a floor inlaid with crystals, and the groundwork was	RHC	RL
14:11of crystals.14:11 The ceiling was like the course of the stars and of the lightning, and	RHC	RL
14:12Cherubim of fire were between them, and their heaven was water.14:12 A flaming fire surrounded the walls, and its	RHC	RL
14:13doors burned with fire.14:13 And I went into this house, and it was hot like fire and cold like ice, and there	RHC	RL
14:14was nothing pleasant and no life in it: fear covered me, and trembling seized me.14:14 And as I was shaking and trembling,	RHC	RL
14:15I fell down on my face and saw in a vision.14:15 And behold, there was a second house, larger	RHC	RL
14:16than the other, all whose doors stood open before me, and it was built with a tongue of fire.14:16 And in all things it excelled in grandeur and magnificence and size, so that I cannot describe to	RHC	RL
14:17you its magnificence and its size.14:17 Its floor was fire, and above it was lightning and the course	RHC	RL
14:18of the stars, and its ceiling was also a flaming fire.14:18 And I looked and saw therein a high throne; its appearance was like the hoar-frost, and its circuit like a shining sun and voices of	RHC	RL
14:19the Cherubim.14:19 And from under the great throne came streams of flaming fire, and it was impossible to look	RHC	RL
14:20at it.14:20 And he who is great in majesty sat thereon; his garment shone more brilliantly than the sun, and	RHC	RL
14:21was whiter than any hail.14:21 None of the angels were able to enter, nor any flesh to look upon the form of the face	RHC	RL
14:22of the Majestic and Honored One.14:22 Fire of flaming fire was round him, and a great fire stood before him, and none of those who were around him could approach him; ten thousand times	RHC	RL
14:23ten thousand were before him; but he required not any holy counsel.14:23 And the holy ones who were	RHC	RL
14:24near him did not leave day or night, nor did they depart from him.14:24 And I had had so long a veil upon my face, and I trembled; and the Lord called me with his own voice and said to me: "Come hither,	RHC	RL
14:25Enoch, and to my holy word!"14:25 And he cause me to arise and I went to the door; but I bent my face downwards.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 15 {Top}
15:115:1 And he answered and spoke to me with his word: "Hear, and fear not, Enoch, thou just	RHC	RL
15:2man and scribe of justice, approach hither, and hear my words.15:2 And go, say to the watchers of heaven, who have sent thee, that thou shouldst petition for them: �Ye should petition for men, and not men	RHC	RL
15:3for you.15:3 Why have ye left the high, holy, and everlasting heaven, and lain with women, and defiled yourselves with the daughters of men, and taken wives unto yourselves, and acted like the children	RHC	RL
15:4of earth, and begotten giants as sons?15:4 While ye were spiritual, holy, having eternal life, ye defiled yourselves with women, and with the blood of flesh have begotten children, and have lusted after the blood of men, and have produced flesh and blood as they produce who die	RHC	RL
15:5and are destroyed.15:5 Therefore I have given them wives that they might impregnate them and	RHC	RL
15:6children be born by them, as it is done on earth.15:6 Ye were formerly	RHC	RL
15:7spiritual, living an eternal life without death to all the generations of the world.15:7 Therefore I have not made for you any wives, for spiritual beings have their home in heaven.	RHC	RL
15:8 15:8 And now the giants, who have been begotten from body and flesh, will be called evil spirits on	RHC	RL
15:9earth, and their dwelling-places will be upon the earth.15:9 Evil spirits proceed from their bodies; because they are created from above, their beginning and first basis being from the holy watchers,	RHC	RL
15:10they will be evil spirits upon the earth, and will be called evil spirits.15:10 But the spirits of heaven have their dwelling-places in heaven, and the spirits of the earth, who were born on the earth, have their dwelling-places on earth.15:11 And the spirits of the giants, who cast themselves upon the clouds, will be destroyed and fall, and will battle and cause destruction on the earth, and do evil; they will take no kind of food, nor will they become	RHC	RL
15:12thirsty, and they will be invisible.15:12 And these spirits will not (?) rise up against the children of men and against the women, because they have proceeded from them.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 16 {Top}
16:1In the days of murder and destruction.16:1 and of the death of the giants, when the spirits have proceeded from the bodies, their flesh shall decay without judgment; thus they shall be destroyed till that day when the great judgment over all the great world shall be	RHC	RL
16:2completed over the watchers and the impious.16:2 And now to the watchers who have sent thee that thou shouldst petition for them who were formerly in heaven say:	RHC	RL
16:3 16:3 �Ye have been in heaven, and though the secrets were not yet revealed to you, still ye knew illegitimate mysteries, and these ye have, in the hardness of your hearts, related to the women, and through these mysteries women and men increase wickedness over the earth.�	RHC	RL

17:1 17:1 And they took me to a place where there were images like flaming fire,	RHC	RL
17:2and when they wished they appeared like men.17:2 And he led me to the place of the whirlwind, and on a hill, the point of whose summit reached to heaven.17:3 And I saw shining places, and the thunder at the ends thereof; in the depths thereof	RHC	RL
17:4a bow of fire, and arrows and their quiver, and a sword of fire, and all lightning.17:4 And they took	RHC	RL
17:5me to the so-called water of life, and to the fire of the west, which receives every setting of the sun.17:5 And I came to a river of fire, whose fire flows like water, and is emptied into a great sea which is towards	RHC	RL
17:6the west.17:6 And I saw all the great rivers, and came to a great darkness, and went	RHC	RL
17:7there where all flesh wanders.17:7 And I saw the mountains of the black clouds of winter, and the place	RHC	RL
17:8whither all the waters of the deep flow.17:8 And I saw the mouths of all the rivers of the earth and the mouth of the deep.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 18 {Top}
18:1 18:1 And I saw the repositories of all the winds, and I saw how he had ornamented all the creation	RHC	RL
18:2and the foundations of the earth with them.18:2 And I saw the corner-stone of the earth, and I saw the four	RHC	RL
18:3winds which support the earth and the firmament of the heavens.18:3 And I saw how the winds expand the heights of the heavens; and they remained between heaven and earth, and they are pillars	RHC	RL
18:4of heaven.18:4 And I saw the winds which turn the heavens, which lead down the course of the sun and	RHC	RL

18:6of the angels; I saw at the end of the earth the firmament of the heavens above.18:6 And I proceeded towards the south; and it burns day and night there where seven hills of precious stones are,	RHC	RL
18:7three towards the east, three towards the south.18:7 But of those towards the east, one of colored stone, one of pearls, and one of antimony; and those towards the south of red stone.	RHC	RL
18:8 18:8 But the middle one reached up to heaven, like the throne of God, of alabaster, and the summit of the	RHC	RL
18:9throne of sapphire.18:9 And I saw a burning fire which was in all the hills.18:10 And there I saw a place, beyond the great earth; there the waters collected.18:11 And I saw a great abyss in the earth, with columns of heavenly fire; and I saw among them columns of heavenly fire, which fall. and are without number, either towards	RHC	RL
18:12the height or towards the depth.18:12 And over that abyss I saw a place which had no firmament of heaven above it, and no foundation of earth beneath it, and no water above it, and no	RHC	RL
18:13birds upon it; it was a void place.18:13 And there I saw a terrible thing: seven stars, like great burning mountains	RHC	RL
18:14and like spirits, that petitioned me.18:14 The angel said: "This is the place of the consummation of heaven and earth; it is a prison for the stars of heaven, and for the host of heaven.18:15 And the stars that roll over the fire are they who have transgressed the command of God before	RHC	RL
18:16their rising, because they did not come forth in their time.18:16 And he was enraged at them, and bound them till the time of the consummation of their sins in the year of the mystery."	RHC	RL

19:1 19:1 And Uriel said to me: "Here will stand the souls of those angels who have united themselves with women, and having assumed many different forms, have contaminated mankind, and have led them astray so that they brought offerings to the demons as to gods, namely on the day when the great judgment,	RHC	RL
19:2on which they will be judged, shall be consummated.19:2 And their women having	RHC	RL

The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 21 {Top}
21:1 21:1 And I went around to a place where not one thing took place.21:2 And I saw there something terrible, no high heavens, no	RHC	RL
21:3founded earth, but a void place, awful and terrible.21:3 And there I saw	RHC	RL
21:4seven stars of heaven, tied together to it, like great mountains, and flaming as if by fire.21:4 At that time	RHC	RL
21:5I said: "On account of what sin are these bound, and why have they been cast hither?"21:5 And then answered Uriel, one of the holy angels, who was with me, conducting me, and said to me: "Enoch, concerning what	RHC	RL
21:6dost thou ask, and concerning what dost thou inquire, and ask and art anxious?21:6 These are of the stars who have transgressed the command of God, the Highest, and are bound here till ten thousand worlds,	RHC	RL
21:7the number of the days of their sins, shall have been consummated."21:7 And from there I went to another place which was still more terrible than the former. And I saw a terrible thing: a great fire was there, which burned and flickered and appeared in sections; it was bounded by a complete abyss, great columns of	RHC	RL
21:8fire were allowed to fall into it; its extent and size I could not see, and I was unable to see its origin.21:8 At that time I said: "How	RHC	RL
21:9terrible this place is, and painful to look at!"21:9 At that time answered Uriel, one of the holy angels, who was with me; he answered and said to me: "Enoch, why such fear and	RHC	RL
21:10terror in thee concerning this terrible place and in the presence of this pain?"21:10 And he said to me: "This is the prison of the angels, and here they are held to eternity."	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 22 {Top}
22:1 22:1 And from here I went to another place, and he showed me in the west a great and high mountain-chain and hard rocks	RHC	RL
22:2and four beautiful places.22:2 And beneath them there were places deep and broad and entirely smooth, as smooth as if a thing were rolled, and deep and dark to look at.	RHC	RL
22:3 22:3 And this time, Rufael, one of the holy angels, who was with me, answered and said to me: "These beautiful places are intended for this, that upon them may be assembled the spirits, the souls of the dead; for they have been created, that here all the souls of the sons of men might be	RHC	RL
22:4assembled.22:4 These places have been made their dwellings till the day of their judgment, and to their fixed period; and this period is long, till the great judgment will come over them."22:5 And I saw the spirits of the children of men who had died,	RHC	RL
22:5and their voices reached up to heaven, and lamented.22:6 At that time I asked the angel Rufael, who was	RHC	RL
22:6with me, and said to him: "Whose soul is that one whose voice thus reaches to heaven and laments?"	RHC	RL
22:7 22:7 And he answered and said to me, saying: "That is the spirit that proceeded from Abel, whom his brother Cain slew; and it laments on his account till his seed be destroyed from the face of the earth and his seed disappear from among the seed of men."	RHC	RL
22:8 22:8 And at that time I therefore asked concerning him, and concerning the judgment of all, and said: "Why is one separated from the other?"	RHC	RL
22:9 22:9 And he answered and said to me: "These three apartments are made in order to separate the souls of the dead. And thus are the souls of the just separated: there is a spring of	RHC	RL
22:10water, above it, light.22:10 And thus also is one such apartment made for the sinners when they die, and are buried in the earth, without a judgment having been passed upon them during their	RHC	RL
22:11lives.22:11 Here their souls are separated in this great affliction until the great day of judgment and punishment and affliction upon the revilers to eternity, and the vengeance for their souls, and here	RHC	RL
22:12he binds them to eternity.22:12 And if it was before eternity, then this apartment has been made for the souls of those who lament and those who reveal their destruction when they were killed in the days	RHC	RL
22:13of the sinners.22:13 And thus it has been created for the souls of men who were not just, but sinners, who were complete in their crimes; and they will be with criminals like themselves; but their souls will not be killed on the day of judgment and will not be taken from here."	RHC	RL

24:1 24:1 And from there I went to another place of the earth; and he showed me a mountain-chain of	RHC	RL

24:3joining with the other.24:3 And the seventh hill was between these; and in their	RHC	RL
24:4heights they were all like the seats of a throne and surrounded with fragrant trees.24:4 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;	RHC	RL
24:5its fruit is beautiful, like the fruit of the vine and the palm-tree.24:5 And at that time I said: "Behold, this is a beautiful tree and beautiful to look at, and its leaves are fair, and its fruit very pleasant to the eye."	RHC	RL

25:3know, but especially concerning this tree."25:3 And he answered me, saying: "This high mountain which thou hast seen, whose summit is like the throne of God, is the throne where the holy and great God of glory, the Eternal King, will sit when he shall descend to visit	RHC	RL
25:4the earth with goodness,25:4 And this tree of beautiful fragrance cannot be touched by any flesh until the time of the great judgment; when all things will be atoned for and consummated	RHC	RL
25:5for eternity, this will be given to the just and humble.25:5 From its fruits life will be given to the chosen; it will be planted towards the north, in a holy place, towards the house of the Lord, the Eternal King.	RHC	RL
25:6 25:6 Then they will rejoice greatly, and be glad in the Holy One; they will let its fragrance enter their members, and live a long life upon the earth, as thy fathers lived; and in their days no sorrow or sickness or trouble or affliction will touch them."	RHC	RL

26:3and beneath the mountain, towards the east, water which flowed towards the south.26:3 And I saw towards the east another mountain of the same height, and between them a deep	RHC	RL
26:4valley, but not broad: therein also water flowed along the mountain.26:4 And towards the west of this was another mountain, lower than the former, not high, and below, between them a valley; and other deep and sterile valleys were at the end of the three.26:5 And all the valleys were deep and not broad, of hard rock.

41:8 41:8 For the shining sun makes many changes for a blessing and for a curse, and the course of the path of the moon is light to the just, and darkness to the sinners in the name of the Lord who created a separation between light and darkness, and divided the spirits of men, and strengthened the spirits of the just, in the name of his own justice.

46:1 46:1 And there I saw one who had a head of days [i.e. was old], and his head was white like wool; and with him was a second whose countenance was like the appearance of a man, and his countenance was full of agreeableness, like one of the holy angels.	RHC	RL
46:2 46:2 And I asked one of the angels, who went with me, and who showed me all the secrets, concerning this	RHC	RL

RHC	RL
46:4 46:4 And this Son of Man, whom thou hast seen, will arouse the kings and mighty from their couches, and the strong from their thrones, and will loosen the bands of the strong, and will break the teeth of the sinners.	RHC	RL

46:6 46:6 And he will expel the countenance of the strong; and shame will fill them: darkness will be their dwelling-place and worms will become their couches, and they will have no hope of rising from their couches, because they do not exalt the name of the Lord of spirits.	RHC	RL
46:7 46:7 And these are they who master the stars of heaven, and raise their hands against the Most High, and tread the earth and live thereon, and all their doing is injustice and their doing manifests injustice, and their power is in their riches, and their faith is in gods which they have made with their hands, and they have denied the name of the Lord of the spirits.

48:7 48:7 And the wisdom of the Lord of the spirits has revealed him to the holy and the just, for he preserves the portion of the just, because they have hated and despised this world of injustice, and have hated all its deeds and ways in the name of the Lord of the spirits; for in his name they will be saved, and he will be the revenger of their lives.	RHC	RL
48:8 48:8 And in those days the countenances of the kings of the earth, and of the mighty who possess the earth, will be bent down on account of the deeds of their hands, for on the day of their terror and trouble their souls will not be saved.48:9 And I will put them into the hands of my chosen, like straw in fire and like lead in water; thus they will burn before the face of the just, and sink before the face of the holy, and no trace of them will be found.

60:4 60:4 And the holy Michael sent another holy angel, one of the holy angels, and he raised me up. And as he raised me my spirit returned, for I had not been able to endure the sight of this host and	RHC	RL

72:27the day six parts.72:27 And with that the sun has completed his stations, and he again returns to his station and enters in this portal thirty mornings; he rises and sets	RHC	RL
72:28opposite it in the west.72:28 And on that day the night diminishes in length by ONE part, and	RHC	RL
72:29is eleven parts and the day seven parts.72:29 And the sun returns and goes into the second portal of the east and returns to his course thirty mornings, rising	RHC	RL

72:34of the sun they are made separated.72:34 On that account the day-course becomes	RHC	RL
72:35longer daily and the night-course shorter nightly.72:35 And this is the law and the course of the sun and his return when he returns; sixty times he returns and comes out, that is the great, eternal luminary which is called the sun to all eternity.72:36 And that which thus ascends is the great luminary, as it is called on account of	RHC	RL
72:37its appearance, according to the command of the Lord.72:37 And thus he ascends and descends, and is not diminished, and does not rest, but runs day and night in his chariot, and his light shines seven times stronger than that of the moon; but as regards size they are both equal.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 73 {Top}
73:1 73:1 And after this law I saw another law with reference to the smaller luminary whose name is moon.	RHC	RL
73:2 73:2 And her circuit is like the circuit of the heavens, and her chariot in which she rides is driven by the wind, and in a measure light is given to her.	RHC	RL
73:3 73:3 Every month her ascent and her descent is changed; her days are like the days of the sun, and when her light is equal [full] her light is the seventh part of the light of the sun.	RHC	RL
73:4 73:4 And thus she rises. And her beginning in the east comes forth on the thirtieth morning, and on that day she becomes visible and is for you the beginning of the moon, on the thirtieth morning, together with the sun in the portal whence the sun proceeds.	RHC	RL
73:5 73:5 And the one half is prominent by the seventh part, and her whole circuit is empty, and there is no light with the exception of the one seventh part of the	RHC	RL
73:6fourteen parts of light.73:6 And on that day when she takes up the seventh part and the half of her light, her light	RHC	RL
73:7contains one seventh and one seventh part and the half of it. She sets with the sun.73:7 And when the sun rises the moon also rises with him and takes a half portion of light, and in that night in the beginning of her morning on her first day the moon sets with the sun, and	RHC	RL
73:8is darkened in that night, with the seventh and the seventh portions and the half of one.73:8 And she will rise on that day with exactly the seventh part, and will come out and become smaller from the rising of the sun and shine the rest of her days, with the seventh and the seventh part.

The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 74 {Top}
74:1 74:1 And I saw another course and law for her, making her monthly course according to that law.	RHC	RL
74:2 74:2 And Uriel, the holy angel, who is the leader of them all, showed me all things, and I wrote down all their positions as he showed them to me, and I wrote down their months	RHC	RL
74:3as they were and the appearance of their lights till fifteen days are completed.74:3 And in seven single parts she completes all her light in the east, and in seven single parts she completes all her	RHC	RL
74:4darkness in the west.74:4 And in certain months she changes her settings, and in certain months she goes	RHC	RL
74:5her peculiar course.74:5 And in two the moon sets with the sun, in those two portals which are in the middle,	RHC	RL
74:6in the third and in the fourth portal.74:6 She comes forth seven days, and turns and returns again by that portal through which the sun comes; and in that she completes all her light and recedes from the sun; and enters in eight	RHC	RL
74:7days into the sixth portal, through which the sun comes forth.74:7 And when the sun comes out of the fourth portal she comes out seven days, so that she comes out of the fifth, and returns again in seven days into the fourth portal and completes all her light, and recedes and enters the	RHC	RL
74:8first portal in eight days.74:8 And she returns again in seven days to the fourth portal, through which the	RHC	RL
74:9sun comes forth.74:9 Thus I saw their places, the sun rising and setting according to the order of their months.74:10 And in those days, if five years are taken together, the sun has thirty superabundant days; and all the days which belong	RHC	RL
74:11to him for one of these five years, when they are full, are three hundred and sixty-four days.74:11 And the superabundance of the sun and of the stars is six days; of five years, each at six, are thirty days, and the	RHC	RL
74:12moon recedes from the sun and the stars thirty days.74:12 And the moon brings in all the years exact, so that their place neither precedes nor recedes ONE day, but she changes the years with exact justice in three hundred and sixty-four days.74:13 Three years have one thousand and ninety-two days; and five years, eighteen hundred and twenty days; so that there will be in eight years two thousand nine hundred and twelve days.74:14 To the moon alone belongs for three years one thousand and sixty-two days, and for five years she recedes fifty days, viz. to the sum of these are added sixty-two days.74:15 And thus in five years there will be seventeen hundred and seventy days, so that the days of the moon for eight years will be two thousand eight hundred and thirty-two days.74:16 For her receding in eight years is eighty days, and all the	RHC	RL
74:17days she remains behind in eight years are eighty days.74:17 And the year is justly finished, in accordance with their stations and the stations of the sun, rising through their portals, through which they rise and set thirty days.	RHC	RL

75:1 75:1 And the leaders of the heads of the thousands, who are over all creation and over all the stars, are also with the four intercalary days, which cannot be separated from their places, according to the whole reckoning of the years, and these serve the four days which are not	RHC	RL
75:2counted in the reckoning of the years.75:2 And on their account men make a mistake in them, for these luminaries serve in reality on the stations of the world, one in the first portal and one in the third portal and one in the fourth portal and one in the sixth portal; and the harmony of the course of the world	RHC	RL
75:3is brought about by its separate three hundred and sixty-four stations.75:3 For the signs and the times and the years and the days, these the angel Uriel showed to me, he whom the eternal Lord of glory had placed over all the luminaries of heaven in the heavens and in the world, that they should rule on the surface of the heavens, and be seen on the earth, and be leaders for the day and for the night, viz. the sun and the moon and the stars and all the serving creatures who keep their course in all the chariots	RHC	RL
75:4of heaven.75:4 The angel Uriel showed me also twelve openings in the circuit of the chariot of the sun from which the feet [i.e. the rays] of the sun come forth; and from them comes the warmth	RHC	RL
75:5over the earth, when they are opened at times destined for them.75:5 There are also some for the winds and	RHC	RL
75:6for the spirit of the dew, when they are opened at times, standing open in the heavens at the ends.75:6 Twelve doors I saw in the heavens, in the ends of the earth, out of which come forth the sun and the moon and the stars	RHC	RL
75:7and all the deeds of heaven, from the east and from the west.75:7 And many window-openings are to the left and to the right thereof, and ONE window in its time produces warmth, like those portals from which the stars come forth as he has commanded them,	RHC	RL
75:8and in which they set according to their number.75:8 And I saw chariots in heaven, running	RHC	RL
75:9in the world, above and below these portals, in which the stars that never set turn.75:9 And one is greater than all, and this one courses through the whole world.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 76 {Top}
76:1 76:1 And on the ends of the earth I saw for all the winds twelve portals opened, from	RHC	RL
76:2which the winds come and blow over the earth.76:2 Three of them are open on the face [i.e. the east] of the heavens, and three in the west, and three on the right [i.e. south] of heaven, and	RHC	RL
76:3three on the left [i.e. north].76:3 And the first three are those towards the east, and three towards the	RHC	RL
76:4north, and three behind those which are on the left, towards the south, and three in the west.76:4 Through four of these come winds of blessing and of peace, and through those eight come winds of injury: when they are sent they bring destruction to all the earth and to the water on it and to all those who dwell on it and to everything that is in the water and on the land.	RHC	RL
76:5 76:5 And the first wind from these portals, which is called the eastern, comes forth from the first portal which is towards the east, inclining towards the south; out of it comes destruction, dryness and heat	RHC	RL
76:6and death.76:6 And through the second middle portal comes forth the right mixture; there come forth rain and fruitfulness and peace and dew. And through the third portal, which is towards the north, come forth coldness and dryness.	RHC	RL
76:7 76:7 And after these the winds towards the south come forth through three portals; firstly through the first portal of	RHC	RL
76:8them, which inclines towards the east, there comes forth the wind of heat.76:8 And from the middle portal, which is beside that one, there	RHC	RL
76:9come forth a sweet incense and dew and rain and peace and life.76:9 And through the third portal, which is towards the west, there come forth dew and rain and grasshoppers and destruction.	RHC	RL
76:10 76:10 And after these northerly winds from the seventh portal, which is towards the east, inclining to the south, there come forth dew and rain, grasshoppers and destruction.76:11 And out of the middle portal direct there come forth rain and dew and life and peace, and through the third portal, which is towards the west, which inclines towards the north, there come forth fog and hoar-frost and snow and rain and dew and grasshoppers.	RHC	RL
76:12 76:12 And after these the winds which are towards the west: through the first portal, which inclines towards the north, there come forth dew and rain and grasshoppers and coldness and snow and frost.76:13 And from the middle portal there come forth dew and rain, peace and blessing, and through the last portal, which is towards the south, there come forth dryness and destruction, burning and death.76:14 Thereby the twelve portals of the four portals [directions] of heaven are completed, and all their laws and all their destructions and their virtues I have showed to you, my son Methuselah.

77:1 77:1 They call the first wind the eastern, because it is the first, and they call the second the southern because the Most High descends there, and especially does the Blessed One in eternity	RHC	RL
77:2descend there.77:2 And the name of the west wind is the diminishing, because there the luminaries of the	RHC	RL

78:10in certain months the moon has each time twenty-nine days, and once twenty-eight.

78:12and when she shines in full her light is completed in the heavens.78:12 And on the first	RHC	RL
78:13day she is called the new moon, for on that day the light is raised upon her.78:13 And she is completed exactly on the day the sun descends in the west and when at night she ascends from the east and shines all night till the sun rises opposite her and the moon is seen opposite the sun.78:14 Whence the light of the moon comes, there again she decreases till all her light disappears, and the days of the moon cease, and her circuit remains empty without light.78:15 And three months she makes thirty days in her time, and three months she makes each time twenty-nine days, in which she makes her decrease, in the first time and in the first portal for one hundred and seventy-seven days.78:16 And in the time of her departure she is seen each time thirty days during three months, and each time twenty-nine days during three months.78:17 At night she appears each time as a man twenty times, and during the day like the heavens, for there is nothing in her except her light.

83:7dost thou lament so?"83:7 And I related to him the whole vision which I had seen, and he said to me: "A terrible thing thou hast seen, my son, and the power of the vision of thy dream is concerning the secrets of all the sins of the earth; it will be about to descend into the abyss and be destroyed	RHC	RL
83:8terribly.83:8 And now, my son, arise and petition the Lord of glory�since thou art a believer�that a remnant may remain on the earth and all the earth be not destroyed.	RHC	RL
83:9 83:9 My son, from heaven all this will come on the earth, and over the earth there will be a great	RHC	RL
83:10destruction."83:10 After that I arose and prayed and petitioned, and wrote down my prayer for the generations of the world, and I will show thee everything, my son, Methuselah.83:11 And as I went out below, and looked at the heavens and the sun rising in the east, and the moon descending in the west, and some few stars, and everything as he had known it from the first, I blessed the Lord of the judgment, and to him I gave greatness, because he led forth the sun from the windows of the east, and he ascends and rises on the surface of the heavens, and elevates himself, and goes the path which is shown to him.

The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 84 {Top}
84:1 84:1 And I raised my hands in justice, and blessed the Holy and the Great One, and I spoke with the breath of my mouth and with the tongue of flesh, which God has made for the children of men, that they should speak with it, and gave them breath and the tongue and the mouth, that they might speak therewith:	RHC	RL
84:2 84:2 Blessed art thou, O Lord, King both great and powerful in thy greatness, the Lord of all the creation of heaven, King of kings, and God of all the world, thy Godship and thy kingdom and thy greatness will remain in eternity, and to all eternity, and to all the generations thy power, and all the heavens are thy throne in eternity, and all the earth thy footstool in eternity and to all eternity.	RHC	RL
84:3 84:3 For thou hast made and dost govern all things, and nothing is too difficult for thee, and no wisdom escapes thee; she does not turn away from her throne, thy throne, and not from thy face, and thou dost know and see and hear all things, and there is nothing that is hidden before thee, for thou dost see all things.

84:4 84:4 And now the angels of thy heavens do sin, and thy wrath is over the flesh of men to the day of the great judgment.	RHC	RL
84:5 84:5 And now, God and Lord and great King, I petition and ask that thou wouldst establish my prayer for me, that there remain to me a posterity on earth, and that thou wouldst not annihilate all the flesh of men, and not make empty the whole earth, and there be an everlasting destruction.	RHC	RL
84:6 84:8 And now, my Lord, annihilate from the earth the flesh which has angered thee, but the flesh of justice and of rectitude establish as a plant of the seed to eternity, and do not hide thy face from the prayer of thy servant, O Lord!"	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 85 {Top}
85:1 85:1 And after this I saw another dream, and I will show thee all, my son.85:2 And Enoch began, and said to his son Methuselah: "To thee, my son, I will speak; hear my words, and lend thy ear to the vision of the dream of thy father.85:3 Before I took thy mother Edna, I saw in a vision on my couch, and behold, a bullock came out of the earth, and this bullock was white; and after him there came a female of the same species, and together with this one came other cattle, one of them was black and	RHC	RL
85:4one red.85:4 And that black one horned the red one, and followed it over the earth; and then	RHC	RL
85:5I could no longer see that red one.85:5 And that black one grew, and a cow came with it, and	RHC	RL
85:6I saw that many cattle, like it and following it, came from it.85:6 And that cow, the first one, came from the presence of that first bullock, seeking that red one, and did	RHC	RL
85:7not find it, and then raised a great cry, and hunted it.85:7 And I looked until that	RHC	RL
85:8first bullock came to her and quieted her; and from that time she did not cry aloud.85:8 And after that she brought forth another white bullock, and after that she brought forth many bullocks and black cows.	RHC	RL
85:9 85:9 And I saw in my sleep that white bullock grow and become a large white bullock, and from him came many white bullocks, and they were similar to him.85:10 And they commenced to beget many white bullocks, and these were similar to them, and one followed the other.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 86 {Top}
86:1 86:1 And again I saw with my eyes, while I was sleeping, and I saw the heavens above, and behold one star fell	RHC	RL
86:2from heaven, and arose and ate and pastured among those bullocks.86:2 And after that I saw the large and the black bullocks, and behold all changed their stalls and their pastures and their cattle, and began	RHC	RL
86:3to lament one with the other.86:3 And again I saw in the vision, and looked at the heavens, and behold I saw many stars; and they fell from heaven, and were thrown from heaven near that first star, and	RHC	RL
86:4among those cattle and bullocks; there they were with them, pasturing among them.86:4 And I looked at them, and behold they all let out their sexual members, like horses, and began to mount the cows of the bullocks;	RHC	RL
86:5and these all became pregnant, and brought forth elephants and camels and asses.86:5 And all the bullocks feared them, and were affrighted at them; and they commenced to bite with their teeth, and to devour, and to push with their	RHC	RL
86:6horns.86:6 And they then began to devour those bullocks, and behold all the children of the earth began to tremble, and to shake before them, and fled.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 87 {Top}
87:1 87:1 And again I saw them as they began to horn each other, and to devour each other, and the earth	RHC	RL
87:2began to cry aloud.87:2 And I again raised my eyes to heaven, and saw in the vision, and behold there came from heaven those who were like white men: one came out from that place,	RHC	RL
87:3and three with him.87:3 And those three who came out last took me by the hand, and bore me away from the generations of the earth, and elevated me to a large place, and showed me	RHC	RL
87:4a tower higher than the earth, and all the hills were lower.87:4 And they said to me: "Remain here until thou seest everything that comes over those elephants and camels and asses, and over the stars, and over all the bullocks."	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 88 {Top}
88:1 88:1 And I saw one of those four who had come out before, and he took that star which had first fallen from heaven, and bound it hand and foot, and put it in an abyss; and this abyss was	RHC	RL
88:2narrow and deep and terrible and dark.88:2 And one of them drew his sword, and gave it to those elephants and camels and asses; and they began to beat one another, and the whole earth shook	RHC	RL
88:3on their account.88:3 And as I saw in the vision, behold then one of those four who had descended threw from heaven, and gathered and took all the great stars, whose sexual members were like the sexual members of horses, and bound them all hand and foot, and put them in an abyss of the earth.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 89 {Top}
89:1 89:1 And one of those four went to that white bullock, and taught him a mystery while he was trembling; he was born a bullock, and became a man, and he made for himself a large vessel, and lived in it;	RHC	RL
89:2and three bullocks lived with him in that vessel, and it was covered over above them.89:2 And I again raised my eyes towards heaven, and saw a high roof and seven sluices to it; and those sluices	RHC	RL
89:3emptied much water into a yard.89:3 And I saw again, and behold fountains were opened on the earth, in that great yard; and that water began to swell, and to be lifted above the land,	RHC	RL
89:4and caused that yard to disappear, until all the land was covered with water.89:4 And the water and the darkness and the fog increased over it; and as I looked at the height of this water, this water was elevated over that yard, and emptied over the yard, and stood on the earth.	RHC	RL
89:5 89:5 And all the bullocks which were in the yard were collected, so that I immediately saw how they sank down and	RHC	RL
89:6came to naught, and were destroyed in that water.89:6 But that vessel swam on the water, and all the bullocks and elephants and camels and asses on the earth sank down, and all the animals; and I was not able to see them, and they were unable to come out, but were destroyed, and sank down into the abyss.89:7 And again I saw in the vision till those sluices were put away from that high roof, and the fountains	RHC	RL
89:8of the earth dried up, and other abysses were opened.89:8 Then the water began to run into these till the earth became uncovered; but that vessel reached the earth, and the darkness	RHC	RL
89:9retreated, and it became light.89:9 But that white bullock, which had become a man, came out of that vessel, and the three bullocks with him; and one of the three bullocks was white, similar to that [first] bullock, and one of them was red like blood, and one black; and that one, the white bullock, went away from them.	RHC	RL
89:10 89:10 And they began to bring forth animals of the desert and birds, so that there arose out of them a varied diversity of kinds: lions and panthers and dogs and wolves and hyenas and wild boars and foxes and squirrels and hogs and falcons and vultures and buzzards and eagles and crows; and among them was born a white bullock.89:11 And they began to bite one another; but that white bullock which was born among them begat a wild ass and a white bullock with it; and the	RHC	RL
89:12wild ass increased.89:12 But that bull which was born from him begat a black wild boar and a white	RHC	RL
89:13sheep; and this wild boar begat many boars, but that sheep produced twelve sheep.89:13 And when these twelve sheep had grown, they gave one of them to the asses, and these asses then gave that sheep to the wolves, and that sheep grew up among the wolves.89:14 And the Lord brought the eleven sheep to live with it, and to pasture with it among the wolves; and they increased, and became many herds of sheep.89:15 And the wolves began to fear, and oppressed them till they [the wolves] finally destroyed their [i.e. the sheep�s] young, and threw their young into a stream of much water; but these sheep began to	RHC	RL
89:16cry aloud, on account of their young, before the Lord.89:16 And a sheep which had been saved from the wolves fled, and escaped to the wild asses; and I saw the sheep as they lamented and cried and asked their Lord with all their power, till that Lord of the sheep descended at the voice of the sheep from his high abode, and came and looked after them.89:17 And he called to that sheep which had escaped from the wolves, and spoke with it concerning the wolves, that it should	RHC	RL
89:18counsel them not to touch the sheep.89:18 And that sheep went to the wolves by the voice of the Lord; and another sheep met that sheep, and went with it, and these two came together to the abode of those wolves, and spoke with them, and admonished them that henceforth they should not touch the	RHC	RL
89:19sheep.89:19 And then I saw the wolves, and how they exceedingly oppressed the sheep	RHC	RL
89:20with all their power; and the sheep cried aloud.89:20 And their Lord came to the sheep, and began to beat those wolves, and the wolves began to lament; but the sheep became	RHC	RL
89:21quiet, and from then on did not cry.89:21 And I saw the sheep till they had gone away from the wolves, and the wolves were blinded as to their eyes, and those wolves went out that they might follow the sheep	RHC	RL
89:22with all their power.89:22 And the Lord of the sheep went with them, leading them, and all the sheep	RHC	RL
89:23followed him; and his face was shining, and this appearance terrible and sublime.89:23 But the wolves	RHC	RL
89:24commenced to follow those sheep till they reached them in a sea of water.89:24 And this sea of water was divided, and the water stood from this side and from that before their faces; and their Lord leading them stood also between	RHC	RL
89:25them and the wolves.89:25 And as those wolves did not yet see the sheep, they went into the middle of the sea of water; and the wolves followed the sheep, and ran after them into the sea of water.	RHC	RL
89:26 89:26 And when they saw the Lord of the sheep they turned that they might flee from before his face; but this sea of water gathered itself together, suddenly took again its own character, and the water swelled and rose till it covered	RHC	RL
89:27those wolves.89:27 And I saw till all the wolves which had followed those sheep were destroyed, and sank down.	RHC	RL
89:28 89:28 But the sheep escaped from that water, and went into the desert, where there was no water and no grass; and they began to open their eyes and to see; and I saw the Lord of the sheep	RHC	RL
89:29pasturing them and giving them water and grass, and that [former] sheep going and leading them.89:29 And this	RHC	RL
89:30sheep ascended to the height of a high rock, and the Lord of the sheep sent it to them.89:30 And after that I saw the Lord of the sheep as he stood before them; and his appearance was	RHC	RL
89:31terrible and powerful, and all those sheep saw him, and were afraid before his face.89:31 And they were all afraid, and trembled before him, and cried after that sheep which was with him to the other sheep which was among	RHC	RL
89:32them: "We are not able to exist before our Lord, or to look at him."89:32 And that sheep which led them returned, and ascended to the height of that rock; but the sheep began to be blinded as to their eyes, and erred	RHC	RL
89:33from the path which it had showed to them; but this sheep did not know it.89:33 And the Lord of the sheep was enraged over them greatly; and that sheep discovered it, and descended from the height of the rock, and came to the sheep, and found the greater part of them blinded as to their eyes, and erring	RHC	RL
89:34from his path.89:34 And as they saw it they feared and trembled before its face, and desired to return to their	RHC	RL
89:35folds.89:35 And that sheep took other sheep with it, and came to those erring sheep; and then it began to kill them, and the sheep feared its countenance; and thus that sheep brought back those	RHC	RL
89:36erring sheep, and they returned to their folds.89:36 And I saw there in the vision till that sheep became a man, and built the Lord of the sheep a house, and placed all the sheep in that house.	RHC	RL
89:37 89:37 And I saw till that sheep that had met the sheep which led the sheep reposed [in death]; and I saw till all the large sheep were destroyed, and small ones arose in their places; and they came to a pasture, and	RHC	RL
89:38approached a stream of water.89:38 And this sheep which led them, and which became a man, was separated	RHC	RL
89:39from them, and reposed [in death]; and all the sheep sought it, and cried over it exceedingly.89:39 And I saw till they became quiet from their crying over this sheep, and they crossed that stream of water; and there always arose other sheep that led them in the place of those which had departed, and led	RHC	RL
89:40them.89:40 And I saw the sheep until they came into a good place, and into a pleasant and glorious land; and I saw these sheep till they were satisfied; but the house stood among them in the beautiful land.	RHC	RL
89:41 89:41 And sometimes their eyes were opened, and sometimes they were blinded, till another sheep arose, and led them, and conducted them all back, and their eyes were opened.	RHC	RL
89:42 89:42 And the dogs and the foxes and the wild boars began to devour those sheep till another sheep arose, a buck, in their	RHC	RL
89:43midst, which led them.89:43 And this buck began to butt those dogs and those foxes and those wild	RHC	RL
89:44boars from both sides, till he had destroyed them all.89:44 And that sheep had its eyes opened, and saw this buck which was among the sheep departing from his honor, and beginning to butt those sheep, and to tramp on them, and to walk	RHC	RL
89:45unseemly.89:45 And the Lord of the sheep sent that sheep to another sheep, and exalted it to become a buck, and to lead the sheep in the place of that	RHC	RL
89:46sheep which had deserted his honor.89:46 And it went to it, and spoke to it alone, and elevated it to become a buck, and made it the prince and leader of the sheep; but during all that time those dogs	RHC	RL
89:47oppressed the sheep.89:47 And the first buck pursued the second buck, and the second buck arose, and fled before its face; and I saw till those dogs cast	RHC	RL
89:48down the first buck.89:48 And that second buck arose,	RHC	RL
89:49and led the smaller sheep, and this buck begat many sheep, and reposed [in death]; and a small sheep became the buck in its place, and was the prince and leader of those sheep.89:49 And those sheep grew and increased; and the dogs and the foxes and the wild boars were afraid, and fled before it; and that buck butted and killed all the wild beasts, and those wild beasts had no more power among the sheep, and never robbed them of anything.	RHC	RL
89:50 89:50 And that house became great and broad, and a large tower was built on that house of the Lord of the sheep for those sheep; and the house was low, but the tower was high and broad; and the Lord of the sheep stood on that tower, and they placed a full table before him.	RHC	RL
89:51 89:51 And I again saw those sheep that they again erred, and went many ways, and left their house; and the Lord of the sheep called some from among them, and sent them to the sheep,	RHC	RL
89:52but the sheep began to kill them.89:52 And one of them was saved, and was not killed, but escaped, and cried over the sheep; and they wanted to kill it, but the Lord of the sheep saved it out of the hands of	RHC	RL
89:53the sheep, and brought it up to me, and caused it to dwell there.89:53 And he sent many other sheep to those sheep to admonish them, and to lament over them.89:54 And after that I saw, as they left the house of the Lord of the sheep and his tower, they departed entirely, and their eyes were blinded; and I saw the Lord of the sheep that he caused much death among them in each one of their herds, til	RHC	RL
89:55these sheep even called for this death, and they betrayed his place.89:55 And he left them in the hand of the lions and tigers and wolves and jackals, and in the hand of foxes and all the wild	RHC	RL
89:56beasts, and these wild beasts began to tear those sheep to pieces.89:56 And I saw that he left that house of theirs and their tower and gave them all into the hand of lions that they should tear and devour them,	RHC	RL
89:57into the hand of all the wild beasts.89:57 And I began to cry aloud with all my power, and called upon the Lord of the sheep and showed him this in reference to the sheep, that they were being devoured	RHC	RL
89:58by all the wild beasts.89:58 But he remained silent, seeing it, and rejoiced that they were devoured and swallowed and robbed, and left them in the hand of all the wild beasts as food.	RHC	RL
89:59 89:59 And he called seventy shepherds and put away those sheep, in order that they should pasture them, and he spoke to the shepherds and to their companions: "Each single one of you shall now pasture the sheep,	RHC	RL
89:60and everything I command you, do!89:60 And I deliver them over to you according to number, and will tell you which of them shall be destroyed; those kill!"89:61 And	RHC	RL
89:61he gave those sheep over to them. And to another he called and said to him: "Watch, and see everything that the shepherds do concerning these sheep; for they will destroy more of them than	RHC	RL
89:62I have commanded.89:62 And each superabundance and the destruction which the shepherds do to these write down, how many they destroy by my command, and how many they destroy by their own will, and write down separately each destruction by each shepherd.	RHC	RL
89:63 89:63 And according to the number recite before me how many they have destroyed of their own account and how many were given them for destruction, that this may be a testimony for me against them, that I may know every deed of the shepherds to give them over, and may see what they do, whether they do my	RHC	RL
89:64commands which I have commanded them or not.89:64 And they shall not know, and thou shalt not let them know nor admonish them, but write down all the destruction of	RHC	RL
89:65the shepherds, each one in its time, and lay everything before me."89:65 And I saw till those shepherds pastured in their times and began to kill and to destroy more than was commanded them, and left	RHC	RL
89:66those sheep in the hands of the lions.89:66 And the lions and the tigers devoured and swallowed the greater part of those sheep, and the wild boars devoured with them; and they burned that tower and demolished	RHC	RL
89:67that house.89:67 And I mourned a great deal over that tower because that house of the sheep was demolished; and after that I could no longer see those sheep whether they entered that house.	RHC	RL
89:68 89:68 And the shepherds and their companions delivered over those sheep to all the wild beasts to devour them, and each one of them received in his time a certain number, and of each one the other wrote down	RHC	RL
89:69in a book how many he destroyed.89:69 And each one killed and destroyed	RHC	RL
89:70more than was ordered him; and I began to cry and to lament exceedingly concerning those sheep.89:70 And in the vision I saw that scribe as he wrote each one that was destroyed by those shepherds on each day and brought up and opened and showed this whole book to the Lord of the sheep, everything that they had done and every one that each single one had	RHC	RL
89:71removed and every one that they had handed over for destruction,89:71 And the book was read before the Lord of the sheep, and he took the book in his hand, and read it and sealed it and laid it down.	RHC	RL
89:72 89:72 And after that I saw that shepherds pastured twelve hours, and behold, three of those sheep turned around and came and entered and began to build everything that was demolished of the	RHC	RL
89:73house, but the wild boars attempted to hinder them, and they could not.89:73 And they again began to build, as before, and put up that tower, and it was called "the high tower"; and they again began to place a table before that tower, and all the bread on it was unclean and not pure.	RHC	RL
89:74 89:74 And concerning all this the sheep were blinded as to their eyes, and did not see, and their shepherds likewise; and a great many were delivered to their shepherds for	RHC	RL
89:75destruction, and they trod on the sheep with their feet and devoured them.89:75 And the Lord of the sheep remained quiet till all the sheep were scattered in the field and mixed themselves with them	RHC	RL
89:76and did not save them from the hands of the wild beasts.89:76 And he who wrote the book brought it to the houses of the Lord of the sheep, and showed it and read it and petitioned him on their account and asked him, while showing him all the deeds	RHC	RL
89:77of their shepherds and testifying before him against all the shepherds.89:77 And he took the book and laid it beside him, and departed.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 90 {Top}
90:1 90:1 And I saw to the time when thirty-six shepherds thus pastured, and each one completed his time like the first; and others received them in their	RHC	RL
90:2hands to pasture them in their time, each shepherd in his own time.90:2 And after that I saw in the vision all the birds of heaven coming: the eagles and the vultures and the buzzards and the crows; but the eagles led all the birds; and they began to devour those sheep and to pick out their eyes and to	RHC	RL
90:3devour their flesh.90:3 And the sheep cried out because their flesh was being devoured by the birds.	RHC	RL
90:4And I cried and lamented in my sleep over that shepherd who was pasturing the sheep.90:4 And I saw until those sheep were devoured by the dogs and the eagles and the buzzards, and they did not leave on them meat or skin or muscles till the skeletons stood there alone, and the skeletons fell	RHC	RL
90:5to the ground also, and the sheep became less.90:5 And I saw to the time when twenty-three shepherds pastured, and they completed, each in his time, fifty-eight times.	RHC	RL
90:6 90:6 But small lambs were born from those white sheep, and they began to open their eyes and to see	RHC	RL
90:7and to cry to the sheep.90:7 But the sheep did not cry to them and did not hear what they said to	RHC	RL
90:8them, but were exceedingly deaf, and their eyes exceedingly and powerfully blinded.90:8 And I saw in the vision that the crows flew on to those lambs and took one of those lambs, but broke the sheep	RHC	RL
90:9and devoured them.90:9 And I saw till horns came to those lambs and the crows threw down those horns; and I saw till ONE great horn came forth, ONE of those sheep, and their eyes	RHC	RL
90:10were opened.90:10 And it looked at them, and their eyes were opened, and it cried to the sheep, and the	RHC	RL
90:11bucks saw it, and all ran to it.90:11 And with all that those eagles and vultures and crows and buzzards to that time were tearing those sheep to pieces, and flew down on them and devoured them; but the sheep remained quiet, and the bucks lamented and cried out.90:12 And those crows fought and battled with it and sought to remove that horn, but had no power over it.	RHC	RL
90:12	RHC	RL
90:13 90:13 And I saw them till the shepherds and the eagles and those vultures and buzzards came, and they cried to those crows that they should break that horn of the buck; and they fought and battled with it, and it fought with them and cried that its help might come to it.	RHC	RL
90:14 90:14 And I saw till that man who had written down the names of the shepherds and brought them up to the Lord of the sheep came, and he helped that buck and showed it everything, that its help had come down.	RHC	RL
90:15 90:15 And I saw till that Lord of the sheep came to them in anger, and all who saw him fled, and all fell into his shadow before his face.	RHC	RL
90:19 90:16 All the eagles and vultures and crows and buzzards assembled and brought with them all the sheep of the desert, and they all came together and assisted one another in order to break that horn of the buck.90:17 And I saw that man who had written the book by the voice of God till he opened that book of destruction which those last twelve shepherds had practiced, and showed that they had destroyed more that those before them, before the Lord of the sheep.90:18 And I saw till the Lord of the sheep came to them and took the rod of anger in his hand, and struck the earth so that the earth was rent apart, and all the beasts and the birds of heaven fell away from those sheep, and sank down into the earth, and it was covered over them.90:19 And I saw till a great sword was given to the sheep, and the sheep came to those wild beasts to kill them, and all the beasts and the birds of heaven fled from their face.	RHC	RL
90:20 90:20 And I saw till a throne was built on the earth in the pleasant land, and the Lord of the sheep sat upon it, and he took all the sealed books and opened those books before the Lord of the sheep.	RHC	RL
90:21 90:21 And the Lord called to those first six white ones, and commanded that they should bring to him, from the first star on, which had come forth, all the stars whose sexual members	RHC	RL
90:22had been similar to the sexual members of horses, and also the first star that had first fallen; and they brought all before him.90:22 And he said to that man who wrote before him, who was one of the six white ones, and said to him: "Take those seventy shepherds to whom I have delivered the sheep, and taking them, they of their own account killed more	RHC	RL

101:7High, and has he not sealed all its doings, and bound it all in the sand?101:7 It dries up at his threats, and is afraid, and all its fish die, and all that is in it; and ye sinners who are	RHC	RL
101:8on the earth do not fear him.101:8 Has he not made heaven and earth, and all that is in them? And who has given understanding and wisdom to all who move on the earth, and to those on the sea?	RHC	RL
101:9 101:9 Do not the kings of the ships fear the sea? but the sinners do not fear the Most High.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 102 {Top}
102:1 102:1 And in those days when he brings a painful fire upon you, whither will ye flee, and where will ye save yourselves? and when he brings his word upon you, will ye then not be aghast and fear?	RHC	RL
102:2 102:2 And all the luminaries will tremble in great fear, and all the earth will be aghast, and will tremble and quake.	RHC	RL
102:3 102:3 And all the angels will fulfil their commands, and will desire to hide themselves from before him, great in glory, and the children of the earth will tremble and shake; and ye, sinners, are cursed to eternity, and will have no peace.	RHC	RL
102:4 102:4 Fear not, ye souls of the just, and hope for the day of your death in justice.	RHC	RL
102:5 102:5 And be not sorrowful that your souls descend into Sheol, in great trouble and lamentation and sorrow, and in grief, and that your bodies have not found it in your life as your goodness deserved, but rather on a day on which ye were like the sinners, and on the day of the curse and the punishment.	RHC	RL
102:6 102:6 And when ye die the sinners speak over you: "As we die the just die, and what benefit have they in their deeds?	RHC	RL
102:7 102:7 Behold, as we, they have died in anxiety and in darkness, and what advantage have they over us? from now on we are equal.	RHC	RL
102:8 102:8 And what will they receive, and what will they see to eternity? For behold they too have died, and from now on to eternity they do not see the light."	RHC	RL
102:9 102:9 I tell you sinners: it is sufficient for you to eat and drink and to make a man naked, and	RHC	RL
102:10to rob and to sin, and to acquire wealth, and to see good days.102:10 Have ye seen the just, how their end was peace, because no	RHC	RL
102:11oppression was found in them to the day of their death?102:11 "And they were destroyed, and became as if they had not been, and the souls descended in Sheol in trouble."	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 103 {Top}
103:1 103:1 And now I swear to you the just, by his great glory and his honor, and by his	RHC	RL
103:2glorious kingdom and by his greatness I swear to you:103:2 I know this mystery, and have read it in the tablets of heaven, and have seen the book of the holy ones, and have found written in it and inscribed on their account,	RHC	RL
103:3 103:3 that all goodness and joy and honor are prepared for them, and are written down for the spirits of those who have died in justice, and that much good is given to you as a reward for your labor, and that your portion is better than the portion of the living.	RHC	RL
103:4 103:4 And your souls will live, ye who have died in justice, and your spirits will rejoice and be glad, and their remembrance will be before the face of the Great One to all the generations of eternity. And now do not fear their shame.	RHC	RL
103:5 103:5 Woe to you, sinners, if ye die in your sins, and those who are like you say concerning you: "Blessed are they, the sinners, they have seen all their days;	RHC	RL
103:6 103:6 and now they have died in good fortune and in wealth, and have not seen trouble or murder in their life; in glory they have died, and judgment has not been passed over them in their life."	RHC	RL
103:7 103:7 Do ye know that their souls will be caused to descend into Sheol, and it will be ill with them, and their trouble great?	RHC	RL
103:8 103:8 And in darkness and in toils and in a burning flame their spirits will burn at the great judgment; and a great judgment will be for all generations to eternity. Woe to you, for ye will have no peace!	RHC	RL
103:9 103:9 Say not to the just and good who are in life: "In the days of our need we have endured labor, and have seen all need, and have met much evil, and have been injured and diminished, and our spirit has become small.	RHC	RL
103:10 103:10 We have been destroyed, and there was none to help us; with word and deed we were incapable, and attained to nothing whatever; we were tortured and destroyed, and did not hope to see life, day by day.	RHC	RL
103:11 103:11 We hoped to be the head, and were the tail; we labored exceedingly, and did not gain by our labor; we became food for sinners, and the unjust laid their yoke heavily upon us.	RHC	RL
103:12 103:12 Those who hated and those who beat us became our rulers; and we bent our neck to our haters, and they did not pity us.	RHC	RL
103:13 103:13 And we desired to go from them in order to flee and to rest, but we did not find whither to flee and to save ourselves from them.	RHC	RL
103:14 103:14 We complained to the rulers in our trouble and in our pain over those who devoured us; but they did not attend to our cry, and did not wish to hear our voice.	RHC	RL
103:15 103:15 And they helped those who robbed and devoured us, and those who diminished us, and they made secret their oppression, so that they did not remove their yoke from us, but devoured us and scattered us and murdered us; and they kept secret our murder, and did not think of it that they had lifted up their hands against us."

The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 104 {Top}
104:1 104:1 I swear to you, just ones, that in heaven the angels will have a remembrance concerning you for good before the glory of the Great	RHC	RL
104:2One. Your names will be written before the glory of the Great One.104:2 Hope, for at first ye were disgraced in evil and need, but now ye will shine like the luminaries of heaven,	RHC	RL
104:3and will be seen, and the portals of heaven will be opened to you.104:3 And continue your cry for a judgment; it will appear to you, for all your trouble will be avenged on the	RHC	RL
104:4rulers, and on all those who help those who oppressed you.104:4 Hope, and do not cease your hope, for ye will have great joy, like the angels in heaven.104:5 Since such will be yours, ye will not hide on the day of the great judgment, and ye will not be found as sinners, and the everlasting	RHC	RL
104:6judgment will be far from you for all the generations of the world.104:6 And now, fear not, ye just, when ye see the sinners strengthening and rejoicing in their desires, and be not associates with them,	RHC	RL
104:7but keep far from their oppression, for ye shall be companions of the hosts of heaven.104:7 Ye sinners, although ye say: "Ye cannot search it out, and all our sins are not written down; still	RHC	RL
104:8they will continually write down your sins every day.104:8 And now I show it to you, that light and darkness,	RHC	RL
104:9day and night, see all your sins.104:9 Be not impious in your hearts, and do not lie, and do not change the words of rectitude, and do not call a lie the words of the Holy and Great One, and do not glorify your	RHC	RL
104:10idols; for all your untruths and all your impiety will not be to you for a justification, but for a great sin.104:10 And now, I know this mystery that the words of rectitude will be changed, and many sinners will rebel, and will speak wicked words, and will lie and make great works, and write books concerning	RHC	RL
104:11their words.104:11 But when they write all my words in rectitude in their languages, and do not change or abridge anything of my words, but write all in rectitude, all that I have first testified	RHC	RL
104:12on their account,104:12 then I know another mystery, that books will be given to just and to the	RHC	RL
104:13wise for joy and for rectitude and for much wisdom.104:13 And the books will be given to them, and they will believe in them and will rejoice in them; and then all the just, who have learned all the paths of rectitude out of them, will be rewarded.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 105 {Top}
105:1 105:1 And in those days, says the Lord, "they will call and testify over the sons of the earth concerning their wisdom: show it to them, for ye are their leaders, and the rewards over all the earth.	RHC	RL
105:2 105:2 For I and my son will join with them to eternity in the paths of rectitude in their lives. And peace will be to you; rejoice, ye children of rectitude, in truth!"	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 106 {Top}
106:1 106:1 And after some days, my son Methuselah took a wife for his son Lamech, and she became	RHC	RL
106:2pregnant by him, and gave birth to a son.106:2 His body was white as snow and red as the bloom of a rose, and the hair of his head was white as wool, and his eyes beautiful; and when he opened his eyes, they illuminated the whole house like the sun, and the whole house	RHC	RL
106:3became exceedingly light.106:3 And as he was taken from the hand of the midwife, he opened his mouth, and conversed with the Lord of justice.	RHC	RL
106:4 106:4 And his father Lamech was afraid of him, and	RHC	RL
106:5fled, and came to his father Methuselah.106:5 And he said to him: "I have begotten a singular son, unlike a man, but similar to the children of the angels of heaven, and his creation is different, and not like ours, and his eyes are like the feet [i.e. rays] of the sun, his	RHC	RL
106:6face glorious.106:6 And it seems to me he is not from me, but from the angels; and I fear that wonderful things will happen in his days	RHC	RL
106:7over the earth.106:7 And now, my father, I am here petitioning and asking of thee that thou shouldst go to Enoch, our father, and hear of him the truth, for he has his dwelling-place	RHC	RL
106:8with the angels."106:8 And when Methuselah had heard the words of his son, he came to me, at the ends of the earth, for he had heard that I was there, and cried aloud, and I heard his voice and came to him. And I said to him: "Behold, here I am, my son, because	RHC	RL
106:9thou hast come to me."106:9 And he answered and said to me: "I have come to thee concerning a great thing, and concerning a disturbing vision	RHC	RL
106:10 it is that I have approached.106:10 And now, my father, hear me, for there has been born to my son Lamech a son, whose similarity and kind is not like the kind of men; his color is whiter than snow, and redder than the bloom of a rose, and the hair of his head is whiter than white wool, and his eyes like the feet [i.e. rays] of the sun; and he opened his eyes, and	RHC	RL
106:11they illuminated the whole house.106:11 And when he was taken from the hands of the midwife, he opened	RHC	RL
106:12his mouth, and blessed the Lord of heaven.106:12 And his father Lamech was afraid, and fled to me, and did not believe that he was from him, but that his similarity was from the angels of heaven; and behold I have come to thee that thou shouldst teach me justice [i.e. the truth]."106:13 And I, Enoch, answered, and said to him: "The Lord will make new things on the earth, and this I know, and have seen in a vision, and I announce it to thee that in the generations of my father Jared some from the heights of heaven departed from the word of the Lord.106:14 And behold, they committed sin, and departed from the law, and united themselves with women, and committed sin with them, and married some of them, and begat children from them.106:17 [They beget on earth giants, not according to the spirit, but according to the flesh, and there will be great punishment on the earth, and the earth will be washed of all of its uncleanness.]106:15 And great destruction will be over all the earth, and there will be the water of a deluge, and	RHC	RL
106:16a great destruction will be for one year.106:16 This son who is born to thee will be left on the earth, and his three children will be saved with him; when all men who are on the earth shall die, he and his children will be saved.106:18 And now announce to thy son Lamech that he who was born to him is in truth his son, and call his name Noah, for he will be a remnant of you; and he and his children will be saved from the destruction which will come over the earth on account of all the sins and all the injustice which will be completed in his days over the earth.106:19 And after that, injustice will exceed that which was first committed on the earth; for I know the mysteries of the holy ones, for he, the Lord, has showed me, and has instructed me, and I have read in the tablets of heaven.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 107 {Top}
107:1 107:1 And I saw written upon them that generation upon generation will transgress till a generation of justice arises, and transgression will be destroyed, and sin will disappear from the earth, and all	RHC	RL
107:2good will come over it.107:2 And now, my son, go and announce to thy son Lamech, that this	RHC	RL
107:3son who is born is really his, and that this is not a falsehood."107:3 And when Methuselah had heard the words of his father Enoch�for he had showed him everything that was secret�he returned, after his having seen him, and called the name of that son Noah, for he will make glad the earth for all destruction.	RHC	RL
The Book of Enoch ~ Chapter 108 {Top}
108:1 108:1 Another book that Enoch wrote for his son Methuselah, and for those who come after him,	RHC	RL
108:2and keep the law in the last days.108:2 Ye who kept it, and now wait in those days till those who did evil are completed, and the power of the transgressors has been completed,108:3 wait till sin disappears, for their names will be erased from the books of the holy ones, and their seed will be destroyed to eternity, and their spirits will be killed, and they will cry and lament in a void, empty place, and burn in a fire where there is no end.108:4 And there I saw something like a cloud which could not be seen, for from its depths I could not look over it; and I saw a flame of fire burning brightly, and there circled things like shining	RHC	RL
108:5mountains, and they shook to and fro.108:5 And I asked one of the holy angels who were with me, and said to him; "What is this shining thing? for it is not a heaven, but only the flame of a burning	RHC	RL
108:6fire, and the voice of shouting and crying and lamenting and of great pain."108:6 And he said to me: "This place which thou seest�here are brought the souls of the sinners and of the revilers and of those who do evil and change everything that God speaks through the mouth	RHC	RL
108:7of the prophets concerning things to take place.108:7 For some of these have been written down, and noted above in heaven, that the angels may read and know what will happen to the sinners and to the spirits of the humble who have chastised their bodies, and for that receive their reward	RHC	RL
108:8from God, and of those who are reviled by wicked men;108:8 who loved God, and did not love gold or silver or all the riches of the world, but gave over their bodies to torture;108:9 and who, since they existed, did not long for terrestrial food, but considered themselves a breath that passes away, and lived accordingly, and were often tried by God, and their spirits were	RHC	RL
108:10found in cleanness to praise his name.108:10 All the blessings they received I have marked down in the books; and he has destined for them their wages, because they have been shown as those who loved the everlasting heaven more than their life, and while they were trodden down by wicked men, and heard abuse and reviling from them,	RHC	RL
108:11praised me."108:11 And now I will call to the spirits of the good, from the generation of light, and change those who were born in darkness, who have not been rewarded in their bodies	RHC	RL
108:12with honor, as was meet for their fidelity.108:12 And I will lead out in a shining light those who	RHC	RL
108:13love my holy name, and will set each one on the throne of honor, of his honor.108:13 And they will glitter in times without number, for justice is the judgment of God, for he will give fidelity	RHC	RL
108:14to the faithful in the dwellings of the paths of rectitude.108:14 And they will see how those who were	RHC	RL
108:15born in darkness will be cast into darkness, while the just will glitter.108:15 And the sinners will cry, and see them as they shine; and they will go there where days and times are written for them.	RHC	RL
