1 Enoch 1 — Enoch's opening theophany prophecy

1

The words of blessing of Enoch, with which he blessed the elect and the righteous, who shall be living in the day of tribulation, when all the wicked and the godless shall be removed.

The words of the blessing of Enoch, wherewith he blessed the elect ⌈⌈and⌉⌉ righteous, who will be living in the day of tribulation, when all the wicked ⌈⌈and godless⌉⌉ are to be removed. 2. And he took up his parable and said—Enoch a righteous man, whose eyes were opened by God, saw the vision of the Holy One in the heavens, ⌈which⌉ the angels showed me, and from them I heard everything, and from them I understood as I saw, but not for this generation, but for a remote one which is for to come. 3. Concerning the elect I said, and took up ⌈my⌉ parable concerning them: The Holy Great One will come forth from His dwelling,

מלי millē ברכתא birktāʾ די dī חנוך Ḥanōk די dī ברך bārek לבחירין lě-bĕḥīrīn וזכאין wĕ-zakkāʾīn די dī להון lěhōn להוון lěhěwōn ביום bě-yōm עקתא ʿāqětāʾ לאעדיה lě-ʾaʿdāyāh כל kol בישין bīšīn ורשיעין wĕ-rašīʿīn

2

And he took up his parable and said: Enoch, a righteous man, to whom a vision from God was opened, had the vision of the Holy One and of heaven, which the Watchers and the Holy Ones showed me; and from them I heard all things, and I understood what I saw — not for this generation, but for a generation that is far off, that is yet to come.

3

Concerning the elect I speak, and concerning them I take up my parable: the Holy Great One will come forth from his dwelling,

Καὶ Kai περὶ peri τῶν tōn ἐκλεκτῶν eklektōn λέγω, legō, καὶ kai περὶ peri ἐκείνων ekeinōn ἔλαβον elabon τὴν tēn παραβολήν parabolēn μου· mou; καὶ kai ἐξελεύσεται exeleusetai ὁ ho ἅγιός hagios μου mou ὁ ho μέγας megas ἐκ ek τῆς tēs κατοικήσεως katoikēseōs αὐτοῦ, autou,

4

and the eternal God will tread upon the earth, upon Mount Sinai, and he will appear from his camp, and he will appear in the power of his might from heaven.

And the eternal God will tread upon the earth, (even) on Mount Sinai, [And appear from His camp] And appear in the strength of His might from the heaven ⌈of heavens⌉.

καὶ kai ὁ ho θεὸς theos τοῦ tou αἰῶνος aiōnos ἐπὶ epi γῆν gēn πατήσει patēsei ἐπὶ epi τὸ to Σινὰ Sina ὄρος, oros, καὶ kai φανήσεται phanēsetai ἐκ ek τῆς tēs παρεμβολῆς parembolēs αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai φανήσεται phanēsetai ἐν en τῇ tē δυνάμει dynamei τῆς tēs ἰσχύος ischyos αὐτοῦ autou ἀπὸ apo τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ. ouranou.

5

And all shall fear, and the Watchers shall believe, and they shall take up a hymn in hidden places throughout all the ends of the earth;

And all shall be smitten with fear, And the Watchers shall quake, And great fear and trembling shall seize them unto the ends of the earth.

Καὶ Kai φοβηθήσονται phobēthēsontai πάντες, pantes, καὶ kai πιστεύσουσιν pisteusousin οἱ hoi ἐγρήγοροι, egrēgoroi, καὶ kai λήμψονται lēmpsontai ὕμνον hymnon ἐν en ἀποκρύφοις apokryphois τόποις topois πάντων pantōn τῶν tōn ἄκρων akrōn τῆς tēs γῆς· gēs;

6

and the high mountains shall be shaken and shall be brought low, and shall melt like wax before the flame at the face of the fire.

And the high mountains shall be shaken, And the high hills shall be made low, And shall melt like wax before the flame.

καὶ kai σεισθήσονται seisthēsontai καὶ kai συντελεσθήσονται syntelesthēsontai τὰ ta ὑψηλὰ hypsēla τῶν tōn ὀρέων, oreōn, καὶ kai ταπεινωθήσονται tapeinōthēsontai καὶ kai τακήσονται takēsontai ὡς hōs κηρὸς kēros ἀπὸ apo προσώπου prosōpou τοῦ tou πυρὸς pyros ἐν en φλογί. phlogi.

7

And the earth shall be wholly rent asunder, and all that is upon the earth shall perish, and there shall be judgment upon all.

And the earth shall be ⌈wholly⌉ rent in sunder, And all that is upon the earth shall perish, And there shall be a judgement upon all (men).

Καὶ Kai ἡ hē γῆ gē καταβραχήσεται, katabrachēsetai, καὶ kai πάντα panta τὰ ta ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs ἀπολοῦνται, apolountai, καὶ kai κρίσις krisis ἔσται estai ἐπὶ epi πάντας. pantas.

8

But with the righteous he will make peace, and upon the elect there shall be preservation and peace, and upon them mercy shall come, and they shall all belong to God, and he shall give them his good pleasure, and he shall bless them all, and he shall help us all, and light shall appear upon them, and he shall make peace with them.

But with the righteous He will make peace. And will protect the elect, And mercy shall be upon them. And they shall all belong to God, And they shall be prospered, And they shall ⌈all⌉ be blessed. ⌈And He will help them all⌉, And light shall appear unto them, ⌈And He will make peace with them⌉.

Καὶ Kai μετὰ meta τῶν tōn δικαίων dikaiōn τὴν tēn εἰρήνην eirēnēn ποιήσει, poiēsei, καὶ kai ἐπὶ epi τοὺς tous ἐκλεκτοὺς eklektous ἔσται estai συντήρησις syntērēsis καὶ kai εἰρήνη, eirēnē, καὶ kai ἐπ' ep' αὐτοὺς autous γενήσεται genēsetai ἔλεος, eleos, καὶ kai ἔσονται esontai πάντες pantes τοῦ tou θεοῦ, theou, καὶ kai εὐδοκίαν eudokian δώσει dōsei αὐτοῖς, autois, καὶ kai πάντας pantas εὐλογήσει eulogēsei καὶ kai πάντων pantōn ἀντιλήμψεται antilēmpsetai καὶ kai βοηθήσει boēthēsei ἡμῖν, hēmin, καὶ kai φανήσεται phanēsetai αὐτοῖς autois φῶς, phōs, καὶ kai ποιήσει poiēsei ἐπ' ep' αὐτοὺς autous εἰρήνην. eirēnēn.

9

Behold, he comes with the myriads of his holy ones, to execute judgment upon all, and to destroy all the ungodly, and to convict all flesh of all the works of their ungodliness which they have ungodly committed, and of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.

And behold! He cometh with ten thousands of ⌈His⌉ holy ones To execute judgement upon all, And to destroy ⌈all⌉ the ungodly: And to convict all flesh Of all the works ⌈of their ungodliness⌉ which they have ungodly committed, ⌈And of all the hard things which⌉ ungodly sinners ⌈have spoken⌉ against Him.

1 Enoch 2 — Contemplate the heavens: natural-order argument

1

Observe all the works in heaven, how they have not changed their courses; and the luminaries in heaven, how they all rise and set in order, each one in its own season, and they do not transgress their appointed orders.

Observe ye everything that takes place in the heaven, how they do not change their orbits, ⌈and⌉ the luminaries which are in the heaven, how they all rise and set in order each in its season, and transgress not against their appointed order. 2. Behold ye the earth, and give heed to the things which take place upon it from first to last, ⌈how steadfast they are⌉, how ⌈none of the things upon earth⌉ change, ⌈but⌉ all the works of God appear ⌈to you⌉. 3. Behold the summer and the winter, ⌈⌈how the whole earth is filled with water, and clouds and dew and rain lie upon it.⌉⌉

2

Behold the earth, and observe the works that take place on it from the beginning to the end, how no work of God transgresses its appointed order; thus all things appear to you.

Behold summer and winter, how the whole world is full of water, and cloud and dew and rain rest upon it.

1 Enoch 3 — The fourteen evergreen trees

1

Observe and behold all the trees, how all their leaves wither and fall — except fourteen trees, which do not shed their leaves, but retain their old foliage for two or three years until the new comes.

Observe and see how (in the winter) all the trees ⌈⌈seem as though they had withered and shed all their leaves, except fourteen trees, which do not lose their foliage but retain the old foliage from two to three years till the new comes.

Κατανοήσατε Katanoēsate καὶ kai ἴδετε idete πάντα panta τὰ ta δένδρα, dendra, ὅπως hopōs ξηραίνεται xērainetai πάντα panta φύλλα phylla ἐπ' ep' αὐτῶν, autōn, χωρὶς chōris τεσσαρεσκαίδεκα tessareskaideka δένδρων, dendrōn, ἃ ha οὐ ou φυλλοροεῖ, phylloroei, τὰ ta ἕως heōs δευτέρου deuterou ἢ ē τρίτου tritou ἔτους etous μένουσιν menousin παλαιὰ palaia φύλλα. phylla.

1 Enoch 4 — The heat of summer

1

And again observe the days of summer, how at its beginning the sun stands directly above it; and you seek shelter and shade because of the heat, and the earth burns with scorching heat, and you cannot tread upon the earth or upon a rock because of the burning.

And again, observe ye the days of summer how the sun is above the earth over against it. And you seek shade and shelter by reason of the heat of the sun, and the earth also burns with growing heat, and so you cannot tread on the earth, or on a rock by reason of its heat.

Καὶ Kai πάλιν palin κατανοήσατε katanoēsate τὰς tas ἡμέρας hēmeras τῆς tēs θερείας, thereias, πῶς pōs ἐν en ἀρχῇ archē αὐτῆς autēs ὁ ho ἥλιος hēlios γίνεται ginetai ἐπάνω epanō αὐτῆς· autēs; ὑμεῖς hymeis δὲ de ζητεῖτε zēteite σκέπην skepēn καὶ kai σκιὰν skian ἀπὸ apo προσώπου prosōpou τῆς tēs θερμότητος, thermotētos, καὶ kai ἡ hē γῆ gē καίεται kaietai καύσει kausei θαλπούσῃ, thalpousē, καὶ kai ὑμεῖς hymeis οὐ ou δύνασθε dynasthe πατῆσαι patēsai ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs ἢ ē ἐπὶ epi τὴν tēn πέτραν petran διὰ dia τὴν tēn καῦσιν kausin αὐτῆς. autēs.

1 Enoch 5 — The elect-righteous covenant

1

Observe how the trees are covered with green leaves and bear fruit; and observe all things and know that he who lives forever has made all these things for you.

Observe ye⌉⌉ how the trees cover themselves with green leaves and bear fruit: wherefore give ye heed ⌈and know⌉ with regard to all ⌈His works⌉, and recognize how He that liveth for ever hath made them so.

Κατανοήσατε Katanoēsate πῶς pōs τὰ ta δένδρα dendra κατακαλύπτεται katakalyptetai φύλλοις phyllois χλωροῖς, chlōrois, καὶ kai καρπὸν karpon φέρει· pherei; καὶ kai πάντα panta κατανοεῖτε katanoeite καὶ kai ἐπιγνῶτε, epignōte, ὅτι hoti ὁ ho ζῶν zōn εἰς eis τοὺς tous αἰῶνας aiōnas πάντα panta ταῦτα tauta ποιεῖ poiei ὑμῖν. hymin.

2

And his works come to pass before him year by year, and all his works serve him and do not change, but as God has ordained, so all things are done.

And ⌈all⌉ His works go on ⌈thus⌉ from year to year ⌈for ever⌉, and all the tasks which they accomplish for Him, and ⌈their tasks⌉ change not, but according as God hath ordained so is it done.

καὶ kai τὰ ta ἔργα erga αὐτοῦ autou ἐνώπιον enōpion αὐτοῦ autou γίνεται ginetai ἔτος etos κατ' kat' ἔτος, etos, καὶ kai πάντα panta τὰ ta ἔργα erga αὐτοῦ autou δουλεύουσιν douleuousin αὐτῷ autō καὶ kai οὐκ ouk ἀλλοιοῦνται, alloiountai, ἀλλὰ alla καθὼς kathōs ὁ ho θεὸς theos ἔταξεν, etaxen, οὕτως houtōs πάντα panta γίνεται. ginetai.

3

And behold how the seas and the rivers alike accomplish their work, and do not alter their works from his words.

And behold how the sea and the rivers in like manner accomplish and ⌈change not⌉ their tasks ⌈from His commandments⌉.

καὶ kai ἴδετε idete πῶς pōs αἱ hai θάλασσαι thalassai καὶ kai οἱ hoi ποταμοὶ potamoi ὁμοίως homoiōs ἀποτελοῦσιν apotelousin καὶ kai οὐκ ouk ἀλλοιοῦσιν alloiousin ἀπὸ apo τῶν tōn λόγων logōn αὐτοῦ autou τὰ ta ἔργα erga αὐτῶν. autōn.

4

But you have not stood firm, nor have you done according to his commandments, but you have turned aside, and you have spoken great and hard words with your unclean mouths against his majesty. You hard-hearted, there shall be no peace for you.

But ye—ye have not been steadfast, nor done the commandments of the Lord, But ye have turned away and spoken proud and hard words With your impure mouths against His greatness. Oh, ye hard-hearted, ye shall find no peace.

Ὑμεῖς Hymeis δὲ de οὐκ ouk ἐνεμείνατε enemeinate οὐδὲ oude ἐποιήσατε epoiēsate κατὰ kata τὰς tas ἐντολὰς entolas αὐτοῦ, autou, ἀλλὰ alla ἀπέστητε apestēte καὶ kai κατελαλήσατε katelalēsate μεγάλους megalous καὶ kai σκληροὺς sklērous λόγους logous ἐν en στόματι stomati ἀκαθαρσίας akatharsias ὑμῶν hymōn κατὰ kata τῆς tēs μεγαλωσύνης megalōsynēs αὐτοῦ· autou; σκληροκάρδιοι, sklērokardioi, οὐκ ouk ἔσται estai ὑμῖν hymin εἰρήνη. eirēnē.

5

Therefore you shall curse your days, and the years of your life shall perish, and the years of your destruction shall be multiplied in an eternal curse, and there shall be no mercy and no peace for you.

Therefore shall ye execrate your days, And the years of your life shall perish, And the ⌈years of your destruction⌉ shall be multiplied in eternal execration, And ye shall find no mercy. 6a. In those days ye shall make your names an eternal execration unto all the righteous, b. And by you shall ⌈all⌉ who curse, curse, ⌈And all⌉ the sinners ⌈and godless⌉ shall imprecate by you, 7c. And for you the godless there shall be a curse. 6d. ⌈And all the . . . shall rejoice, e. And there shall be forgiveness of sins, f. And every mercy and peace and forbearance: g. There shall be salvation unto them, a goodly light. i. And for all of you sinners there shall be no salvation, j. But on you all shall abide a curse⌉. 7a. But for the elect there shall be light and joy and peace, b. And they shall inherit the earth.

διὰ dia τοῦτο touto καταράσησθε katarasēsthe τὰς tas ἡμέρας hēmeras ὑμῶν, hymōn, καὶ kai τὰ ta ἔτη etē τῆς tēs ζωῆς zōēs ὑμῶν hymōn ἀπολεῖται, apoleitai, καὶ kai τὰ ta ἔτη etē τῆς tēs ἀπωλείας apōleias ὑμῶν hymōn πληθυνθήσεται, plēthynthēsetai, ἐν en καταρᾷ katarā αἰωνίᾳ, aiōnia, καὶ kai οὐκ ouk ἔσται estai ὑμῖν hymin ἔλεος eleos καὶ kai εἰρήνη. eirēnē.

6

Then your name shall be an eternal curse to all the righteous, and by you all who curse shall curse, and all sinners and ungodly shall swear by you, and all the [...] shall curse by you. And the righteous shall bless the elect, and they shall have light and joy and peace, and they shall inherit the earth.

Τότε Tote ἔσται estai τὸ to ὄνομα onoma ὑμῶν hymōn εἰς eis κατάραν kataran αἰώνιον aiōnion πᾶσι pasi τοῖς tois δικαίοις, dikaiois, καὶ kai ἐν en ὑμῖν hymin καταρασθήσονται katarasthēsontai οἱ hoi καταρώμενοι· katarōmenoi; πάντες pantes οἱ hoi ἁμαρτωλοὶ hamartōloi καὶ kai ἀσεβεῖς asebeis ἐν en ὑμῖν hymin ὀμοῦνται omountai καὶ kai ἐν en ὑμῖν hymin πάντες pantes οἱ hoi ἀνα... ana... καὶ kai εὐλογήσουσιν eulogēsousin τοῖς tois ἐκλεκτοῖς eklektois οἱ hoi δικαίοι, dikaioi, καὶ kai ἕξουσιν hexousin φῶς phōs καὶ kai χαρὰν charan καὶ kai εἰρήνην, eirēnēn, καὶ kai κληρονομήσουσιν klēronomēsousin τὴν tēn γῆν. gēn.

7

And for the elect there shall be light and grace and peace, and they shall inherit the earth; but for the ungodly there shall be a curse.

καὶ kai τοῖς tois ἐκλεκτοῖς eklektois ἔσται estai φῶς phōs καὶ kai χάρις charis καὶ kai εἰρήνη, eirēnē, καὶ kai αὐτοὶ autoi κληρονομήσουσιν klēronomēsousin τὴν tēn γῆν· gēn; τοῖς tois δὲ de ἀσεβέσιν asebesin ἔσται estai κατάρα. katara.

8

And then wisdom shall be given to the elect, and they shall all live and shall not sin again — neither in ungodliness nor in pride; and in the enlightened one shall be light, and in the understanding one shall be insight, and they shall not sin.

And then there shall be bestowed upon the elect wisdom, And they shall all live and never again sin, Either through ungodliness or through pride: But they who are wise shall be humble.

Καὶ Kai τότε tote δοθήσεται dothēsetai τοῖς tois ἐκλεκτοῖς eklektois σοφία, sophia, καὶ kai πάντες pantes αὐτοὶ autoi ζήσονται zēsontai καὶ kai οὐχ ouch ἁμαρτήσονται hamartēsontai ἔτι eti οὔτε oute ἐν en ἀσεβείᾳ asebeia οὔτε oute ἐν en ὑπερηφανίᾳ· hyperēphania; καὶ kai ἔσται estai ἐν en ἀνθρώπῳ anthrōpō πεφωτισμένῳ pephōtismenō φῶς, phōs, καὶ kai ἐν en ἀνθρώπῳ anthrōpō ἐπιστήμονι epistēmoni νόημα, noēma, καὶ kai οὐχ ouch ἁμαρτήσουσιν. hamartēsousin.

9

And they shall not sin all the days of their life, and they shall not die in the flame of wrath; but the number of the days of their life they shall complete, and their life shall increase in peace, and the years of their joy shall be multiplied in gladness and in eternal peace all the days of their life.

And they shall not again transgress, Nor shall they sin all the days of their life, Nor shall they die of (the divine) anger or wrath, But they shall complete the number of the days of their life. And their lives shall be increased in peace, And the years of their joy shall be multiplied, In eternal gladness and peace, All the days of their life.

1 Enoch 6 — The Watchers' descent on Mount Hermon

1

And it came to pass, when the sons of men had multiplied on the earth, that there were born to them daughters, beautiful and fair.

And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days were born unto them beautiful and comely daughters. 2. And the angels, the children of the heaven, saw and lusted after them, and said to one another: ‘Come, let us choose us wives from among the children of men and beget us children.’ 3. And Semjâzâ, who was their leader, said unto them: ‘I fear ye will not indeed agree to do this deed, and I alone shall have to pay the penalty of a great sin.’ 4. And they all answered him and said: ‘Let us all swear an oath, and all bind ourselves by mutual imprecations not to abandon this plan but to do this thing.’ 5. Then sware they all together and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it. 6. And they were in all two hundred; who descended ⌈in the days⌉ of Jared on the summit of Mount Hermon, and they called it Mount Hermon, because they had sworn and bound themselves by mutual imprecations upon it. 7. And these are the names of their leaders: Samîazâz, their leader, Arâkîba, Râmêêl, Kôkabîêl, Tâmîêl, Râmîêl, Dânêl, Êzêqêêl, Barâqîjâl, Asâêl, Armârôs, Batârêl, Anânêl, Zaqîêl, Samsâpêêl, Satarêl, Tûrêl, Jômjâêl, Sariêl. 8. These are their chiefs of tens.

והוה wa-hăwāh כדי kědī שגיו šāgīw בני běnē אנשא ʾănāšāʾ בארעא bě-ʾarʿāʾ והתילדו wĕ-hitēlědū להון lěhōn בנן bĕnān בנת bĕnāt שפירן šappīrān

2

And the Watchers, the sons of heaven, beheld them and lusted after them, and said one to another: Come, let us choose for ourselves wives from the daughters of men, and let us beget for ourselves children.

וחזו wa-ḥăzō אנון ʾinnōn עירין ʿīrīn בני bĕnē שמיא šĕmayyāʾ וחמדו wĕ-ḥămadū אנון ʾinnōn ואמרו wĕ-ʾamarū דן dēn לדן lě-dēn איתון ʾītōn נבחר niḇḥar לן lan נשין něšīn מן min בנת běnāt אנשא ʾănāšāʾ ונולד wĕ-nōlēd לן lan בנין běnīn

3

And Šemiḥazah, their chief, said to them: I fear that you will not consent to do this deed, and I alone shall be held guilty of a great sin.

ואמר wa-ʾămar שמיחזה Šĕmīḥăzāh רבהון rabbhōn דחל dāḥel אנה ʾanāh דלא dī-lāʾ תצבון tiṣbōn למעבד lě-meʿbad עבדא ʿăbādāʾ דנא dĕnāʾ ואנה wa-ʾănāh בלחודי bi-lḥōdī אהוה ʾehēweh חיב ḥayyāḇ חטא ḥăṭāʾ רב rab

4

And they all answered him and said: Let us all swear an oath, and let us all bind ourselves by a mutual anathema, that we will not abandon this plan, but will carry out this deed.

וענו wa-ʿănō כלהון kullhōn ואמרו wa-ʾămarū לה leh נומה nōmāh כלן kullan וניחרים wĕ-niḥrim אנחנא ʾănaḥnāʾ כלן kullan בחרמא bě-ḥermāʾ דלא dī-lāʾ נשבק nišbōq עצא ʿēṣāʾ דא dāʾ ועד wĕ-ʿad דנעבד dī-naʿbed עבדא ʿăbādāʾ דן dēn

5

Then they all swore together, and bound themselves by anathema upon it.

באדין bě-ʾēdayin כלהון kullhōn אומיו ʾōmīw כחדא kě-ḥădāʾ וחרמו wĕ-ḥerimū כלהון kullhōn על ʿal כן kēn

6

And they were in all two hundred, who descended in the days of Jared upon the summit of Mount Hermon.

והוו wa-hăwō כלהון kullhōn מאתין mě-ʾātīn די dī נחתו něḥătū ביומי bě-yōmē ירד Yāred לראש lě-rēʾš טור ṭūr חרמון Ḥermōn

7

And these are the names of their chiefs: Šemiḥazah, who was their chief; ʾArʿătqōp, second to him; Rāmʾēl, third; Kōkabʾēl, fourth; Bărāqʾēl, fifth; Zīqīʾēl, sixth; ʾArtĕqīpā, seventh; Ḥănānʾēl, eighth; Tūrīʾēl, ninth; Šamšīʾēl, tenth; Šaḥrīʾēl, eleventh; Tūrʾēl, twelfth; Yōmʾēl, thirteenth; Yōmīʾēl, fourteenth; Sahrīʾēl, fifteenth; Asael, sixteenth; Raʿamʾēl, seventeenth; ʿAzazʾēl, eighteenth; Mašrīʾēl, nineteenth; Rūbʾēl, twentieth — ʿAzīʾēl.

8

These are the chiefs of their tens. These and all the rest with them took to themselves wives, and they began to defile themselves with them until the flood.

1 Enoch 7 — The giants and the earth's complaint

1

And they took to themselves wives, and each one chose for himself a wife; and they began to go in unto them and to defile themselves with them. And they taught them sorceries and enchantments and the cutting of roots, and made them acquainted with plants.

And all the others together with them took unto themselves wives, and each chose for himself one, and they began to go in unto them and to defile themselves with them, and they taught them charms and enchantments, and the cutting of roots, and made them acquainted with plants. 2. And they became pregnant, and they bare great giants, whose height was three thousand ells: 3. Who consumed all the acquisitions of men. 4. And when men could no longer sustain them, the giants turned against them and devoured mankind. 5. And they began to sin against birds, and beasts, and reptiles, and fish, and to devour one another's flesh, and drink the blood. 6. Then the earth laid accusation against the lawless ones.

ונסבו wa-něsabū להון lěhōn נשין něšīn כל kol חד ḥad וחד wĕ-ḥad מנהון minhōn אתבחר ʾitběḥar לה leh אנתה ʾinttāh ושריו wĕ-šārīw למעלה lě-meʿlāh עליהן ʿălēhēn ולסאבה wĕ-lě-saʾāḇāh עמהן ʿimhēn ואלפו wa-ʾallēpū אנון ʾinnōn חרשין ḥăršīn ולחרסה wĕ-lě-ḥāršāh ולקטיעת wĕ-lě-qěṭīʿat שרשין šoršīn ועקרין wĕ-ʿiqqārīn ואחויו wĕ-ʾaḥwīw להון lěhōn עשבין ʿiśbīn

2

And these conceived from them, and bore great giants, whose height was three hundred cubits.

3

These devoured the labor of mankind; and when men could no longer sustain them,

οὗτοι houtoi κατήσθιον katēsthion τοὺς tous κόπους kopous τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων, anthrōpōn, ὡς hōs δὲ de οὐχ ouch ὑπέφερον hypepheron αὐτοὺς autous τρέφειν trephein οἱ hoi ἄνθρωποι, anthrōpoi,

4

the giants turned against them and devoured mankind.

5

And they began to sin against birds and beasts and reptiles and fish, and to devour one another's flesh, and they drank the blood.

6

Then the earth brought a complaint against the lawless ones.

1 Enoch 8 — Asael's knowledge-transmission catalog

1

And Asael taught men to make swords and knives and shields and breastplates; and he showed them the metals of the earth and the working of them, and bracelets and ornaments, and the use of antimony, and the beautifying of the eyelids, and all kinds of costly stones, and all the dyes — and the world was changed.

And Azâzêl taught men to make swords, and knives, and shields, and breastplates, and made known to them the metals 〈of the earth〉 and the art of working them, and bracelets, and ornaments, and the use of antimony, and the beautifying of the eyelids, and all kinds of costly stones, and all colouring tinctures. 2. And there arose much godlessness, and they committed fornication, and they were led astray, and became corrupt in all their ways. 3. Semjâzâ taught enchantments, and root-cuttings, Armârôs the resolving of enchantments, Barâqîjâl (taught) astrology, Kôkabêl the constellations, Êzêqêêl the knowledge of the clouds, 〈Araqiêl the signs of the earth, Shamsiêl the signs of the sun〉, and Sariêl the course of the moon. 4. And as men perished, they cried, and their cry went up to heaven . . .

2

And there arose much ungodliness, and they committed fornication, and they were led astray and became corrupt in all their ways.

καὶ kai ἐγένετο egeneto ἀσέβεια asebeia πολλὴ pollē καὶ kai ἐπόρνευσαν, eporneusan, καὶ kai ἐπλανήθησαν eplanēthēsan καὶ kai ἠφανίσθησαν ēphanisthēsan ἐν en πᾶσι pasi τοῖς tois ὁδοῖς hodois αὐτῶν. autōn.

Šemiḥazah taught sorceries and the cutting of roots; Ḥarmoni taught the loosing of sorceries; Bărāqʾēl taught the divination of lightnings; Kōkabʾēl, the divination of the stars; Zīqīʾēl, the divination of shooting-stars; Šamšīʾēl, the divination of the sun; Šaḥrīʾēl, the divination of the moon. And they all began to reveal mysteries to their wives.

4

And as men were perishing, they cried out, and their cry went up to heaven.

Καὶ Kai ἀπολλυμένων apollymenōn τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn ἐβόησαν, eboēsan, καὶ kai ἡ hē φωνὴ phōnē αὐτῶν autōn ἀνέβη anebē εἰς eis τὸν ton οὐρανόν. ouranon.

Chapter 9

1 Enoch 9 — The four archangels' intercession

1

Then Michael and Sariel and Raphael and Gabriel looked down from heaven, and they beheld much blood that was shed upon the earth, and all the violence that was wrought upon it.

And then Michael, Uriel, Raphael, and Gabriel looked down from heaven and saw much blood being shed upon the earth, and all lawlessness being wrought upon the earth. 2. And they said one to another: ‘The earth made †without inhabitant cries the voice of their cryings† up to the gates of heaven. 3. ⌈⌈And now to you, the holy ones of heaven⌉⌉, the souls of men make their suit, saying, “Bring our cause before the Most High.”’ 4. And they said to the Lord of the ages: ‘Lord of lords, God of gods, King of kings, 〈and God of the ages〉, the throne of Thy glory (standeth) unto all the generations of the ages, and Thy name holy and glorious and blessed unto all the ages! 5. Thou hast made all things, and power over all things hast Thou: and all things are naked and open in Thy sight, and Thou seest all things, and nothing can hide itself from Thee. 6. Thou seest what Azâzêl hath done, who hath taught all unrighteousness on earth and revealed the eternal secrets which were (preserved) in heaven, which men were striving to learn: 7. And Semjâzâ, to whom Thou hast given authority to bear rule over his associates. 8. And they have gone to the daughters of men upon the earth, and have slept with the women, and have defiled themselves, and revealed to them all kinds of sins. 9. And the women have borne giants, and the whole earth has thereby been filled with blood and unrighteousness. 10. And now, behold, the souls of those who have died are crying and making their suit to the gates of heaven, and their lamentations have ascended: and cannot cease because of the lawless deeds which are wrought on the earth. 11. And Thou knowest all things before they come to pass, and Thou seest these things and Thou dost suffer them, and Thou dost not say to us what we are to do to them in regard to these.’

באדין bě-ʾēdayin אדיקו ʾaddīqū מיכאל Mīkāʾēl ושריאל wĕ-Śarīʾēl ורפאל wĕ-Rāpāʾēl וגבריאל wĕ-Gabrīʾēl מן min שמיא šĕmayyāʾ וחזו wa-ḥăzō דמא děmāʾ שגיא śaggīʾ די dī אשתפך ʾištěpak על ʿal ארעא ʾarʿāʾ וכל wĕ-kol חמסא ḥāmsāʾ דעבד dī-ʿăḇīd עליה ʿălēh

2

And they said one to another: The voice of those who cry out upon the earth reaches up to the gates of heaven.

καὶ kai εἶπαν eipan πρὸς pros ἑαυτούς· heautous; Φωνὴ Phōnē βοώντων boōntōn ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs μέχρι mechri πυλῶν pylōn τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ. ouranou.

3

And now to you, O Holy Ones of heaven, the souls of men make their plea, saying: Bring our cause before the Most High.

καὶ kai νῦν nyn ὑμῖν, hymin, οἱ hoi ἅγιοι hagioi τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ, ouranou, ἐντυγχάνουσιν entynchanousin αἱ hai ψυχαὶ psychai τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn λέγουσαι· legousai; Εἰσαγάγετε Eisagagete τὴν tēn κρίσιν krisin ἡμῶν hēmōn πρὸς pros τὸν ton ὕψιστον. hypsiston.

4

And they said to the Lord of the ages: You are the God of gods and Lord of lords and King of kings and God of the ages; and the throne of your glory endures throughout all the generations of the ages, and your name is holy and glorious and blessed throughout all the ages.

Καὶ Kai εἶπαν eipan τῷ tō κυρίῳ kyriō τῶν tōn αἰώνων· aiōnōn; Σὺ Sy εἶ ei ὁ ho θεὸς theos τῶν tōn θεῶν theōn καὶ kai κύριος kyrios τῶν tōn κυρίων kyriōn καὶ kai βασιλεὺς basileus τῶν tōn βασιλευόντων basileuontōn καὶ kai θεὸς theos τῶν tōn αἰώνων· aiōnōn; καὶ kai ὁ ho θρόνος thronos τῆς tēs δόξης doxēs σου sou εἰς eis πάσας pasas τὰς tas γενεὰς geneas τῶν tōn αἰώνων, aiōnōn, καὶ kai τὸ to ὄνομά onoma σου sou ἅγιον hagion καὶ kai ἔνδοξον endoxon καὶ kai εὐλογητὸν eulogēton εἰς eis πάντας pantas τοὺς tous αἰῶνας. aiōnas.

5

You have made all things, and you hold authority over all; and all things are open and uncovered before you, and you see all things, and there is nothing that can be hidden from you.

Σὺ Sy πάντα panta ἐποίησας epoiēsas καὶ kai πάντων pantōn τὴν tēn ἐξουσίαν exousian ἔχεις· echeis; καὶ kai πάντα panta ἐνώπιόν enōpion σου sou φανερὰ phanera καὶ kai ἀκάλυπτα, akalypta, καὶ kai πάντα panta ὁρᾷς horas σὺ sy καὶ kai οὐδέν ouden ἐστιν estin ὃ ho δύναται dynatai κρυβῆναι krybēnai σε. se.

6

You know what Asael has done — who has taught all unrighteousness upon the earth, and has revealed the mysteries of the age that are in heaven.

Σὺ Sy οἶδας oidas τί ti ἐποίησεν epoiēsen Ἀζαὴλ, Azaēl, ὃς hos ἐδίδαξεν edidaxen πᾶσαν pasan ἀδικίαν adikian ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs καὶ kai ἀπεκάλυψεν apekalypsen τὰ ta μυστήρια mystēria τοῦ tou αἰῶνος aiōnos τὰ ta ἐν en τῷ tō οὐρανῷ. ouranō.

7

And Šemiḥazah, to whom you gave authority to rule over those who were with him, has made known these things.

καὶ kai ἐγνώρισεν egnōrisen Σεμιαζᾶς, Semiazas, ᾧ hō τὴν tēn ἐξουσίαν exousian ἔδωκας edōkas ἄρχειν archein τῶν tōn σὺν syn αὐτῷ autō ἅμα hama ὄντων. ontōn.

8

And they have gone in unto the daughters of men upon the earth, and have lain with them, and the women were defiled; and they revealed to them all these sins.

καὶ kai εἰσῆλθον eisēlthon πρὸς pros τὰς tas θυγατέρας thygateras τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς, gēs, καὶ kai συνεκοιμήθησαν synekoimēthēsan μετ' met' αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai ἐμιάνθησαν emianthēsan αἱ hai θηλείαι, thēleiai, καὶ kai ἀπεκάλυψαν apekalypsan αὐταῖς autais πάσας pasas τὰς tas ἁμαρτίας hamartias ταύτας. tautas.

9

And the women bore giants, by whom the whole earth was filled with blood and unrighteousness.

καὶ kai ἐγέννησαν egennēsan αἱ hai γυναῖκες gynaikes αὐτῶν autōn τιτᾶνας, titanas, ὑφ' hyph' ὧν hōn ὅλη holē ἡ hē γῆ gē ἐπλήσθη eplēsthē αἵματος haimatos καὶ kai ἀδικίας. adikias.

10

And behold, the souls of those who have died cry out and bring their plea up to the gates of heaven, and their groaning has gone up, and it cannot cease in the face of the lawless deeds that are wrought upon the earth.

καὶ kai νῦν nyn ἰδοὺ idou αἱ hai ψυχαὶ psychai τῶν tōn ἀποθανόντων apothanontōn ἀναβοῶσιν anaboōsin καὶ kai ἐντυγχάνουσιν entynchanousin μέχρι mechri πυλῶν pylōn τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ, ouranou, καὶ kai ἀνέβη anebē ὁ ho στεναγμὸς stenagmos αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai οὐ ou δύναται dynatai ἐξελθεῖν exelthein ἀπὸ apo προσώπου prosōpou τῶν tōn ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs γινομένων ginomenōn ἀνομιῶν. anomiōn.

11

But you know all things before they come to pass, and you know these things, yet you allow them, and you do not even tell us what we are to do with them concerning these matters.

Σὺ Sy δὲ de πάντα panta οἶδας oidas πρὶν prin αὐτὰ auta γενέσθαι, genesthai, καὶ kai σὺ sy οἶδας oidas ταῦτα tauta καὶ kai ἐᾷς eas αὐτούς, autous, καὶ kai οὐδὲ oude ἡμῖν hēmin λέγεις legeis τί ti δεῖ dei ποιεῖν poiein αὐτοῖς autois περὶ peri τούτων. toutōn.

Chapter 10

1 Enoch 10 — The Most High's commission to the archangels

1

Then the Most High spoke, and the Holy Great One uttered his word, and he sent Asuryal to the son of Lamech,

Then said the Most High, the Holy and Great One spake, and sent Uriel to the son of Lamech, and said to him: 2. 〈’Go to Noah and〉 tell him in my name “Hide thyself!” and reveal to him the end that is approaching: that the whole earth will be destroyed, and a deluge is about to come upon the whole earth, and will destroy all that is on it. 3. And now instruct him that he may escape and his seed may be preserved for all the generations of the world.’ 4. And again the Lord said to Raphael: ‘Bind Azâzêl hand and foot, and cast him into the darkness: and make an opening in the desert, which is in Dûdâêl, and cast him therein. 5. And place upon him rough and jagged rocks, and cover him with darkness, and let him abide there for ever, and cover his face that he may not see light. 6. And on the day of the great judgement he shall be cast into the fire. 7. And heal the earth which the angels have corrupted, and proclaim the healing of the earth, that they may heal the plague, and that all the children of men may not perish through all the secret things that the Watchers have disclosed and have taught their sons. 8. And the whole earth has been corrupted through the works that were taught by Azâzêl: to him ascribe all sin.’ 9. And to Gabriel said the Lord: ‘Proceed against the bastards and the reprobates, and against the children of fornication: and destroy [the children of fornication and] the children of the Watchers from amongst men [and cause them to go forth]: send them one against the other that they may destroy each other in battle: for length of days shall they not have. 10. And no request that they (i.e. their fathers) make of thee shall be granted unto their fathers on their behalf; for they hope to live an eternal life, and that each one of them will live five hundred years.’ 11. And the Lord said unto Michael: ‘Go, bind Semjâzâ and his associates who have united themselves with women so as to have defiled themselves with them in all their uncleanness. 12. And when their sons have slain one another, and they have seen the destruction of their beloved ones, bind them fast for seventy generations in the valleys of the earth, till the day of their judgement and of their consummation, till the judgement that is for ever and ever is consummated. 13. In those days they shall be led off to the abyss of fire: 〈and〉 to the torment and the prison in which they shall be confined for ever. 14. And whosoever shall be condemned and destroyed will from thenceforth be bound together with them to the end of all generations. 15. And destroy all the spirits of the reprobate and the children of the Watchers, because they have wronged mankind. 16. Destroy all wrong from the face of the earth and let every evil work come to an end: and let the plant of righteousness and truth appear: ⌈and it shall prove a blessing; the works of righteousness and truth⌉ shall be planted in truth and joy for evermore.

Καὶ Kai τότε tote ὁ ho ὕψιστος hypsistos εἶπεν, eipen, καὶ kai ὁ ho ἅγιος hagios ὁ ho μέγας megas ἐλάλησεν, elalēsen, καὶ kai ἀπέστειλεν apesteilen Ἀρσυαλαλιοὺρ Arsyalalalour πρὸς pros τὸν ton υἱὸν huion Λάμεχ, Lamech,

2

saying: Go to Noah, and say to him in my name: Hide yourself. And reveal to him the end that is coming, for the whole earth will perish, and the water of the flood is about to come upon the whole earth, and it will destroy all that is upon it.

3

And now teach him, that he may escape, and that his seed may endure throughout all the generations of the age.

Καὶ Kai νῦν nyn δίδαξον didaxon αὐτὸν auton ὅπως hopōs ἐκφύγῃ, ekphygē, καὶ kai μενεῖ menei τὸ to σπέρμα sperma αὐτοῦ autou εἰς eis πάσας pasas τὰς tas γενεὰς geneas τοῦ tou αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

4

And again the Lord said to Raphael: Bind Asael hand and foot, and cast him into the darkness; and make an opening in the wilderness which is in Dudael, and there cast him in.

Καὶ Kai πάλιν palin εἶπεν eipen ὁ ho κύριος kyrios τῷ tō Ῥαφαὴλ· Rhaphaēl; Δῆσον Dēson τὸν ton Ἀζαὴλ Azaēl ποσὶν posin καὶ kai χερσίν, chersin, καὶ kai βάλε bale αὐτὸν auton εἰς eis τὸ to σκότος, skotos, καὶ kai ἄνοιξον anoixon τὴν tēn ἔρημον erēmon τὴν tēn οὖσαν ousan ἐν en Δουδαὴλ, Doudaēl, καὶ kai ἐκεῖ ekei βάλε bale αὐτόν. auton.

5

And place upon him rough and jagged stones, and cover him with darkness, and let him dwell there forever; and cover his face, that he may not see the light.

Καὶ Kai ὑπόθες hypothes αὐτῷ autō τραχεῖς tracheis καὶ kai ὀξεῖς oxeis λίθους, lithous, καὶ kai ἐπικάλυψον epikalypson αὐτῷ autō τὸ to σκότος, skotos, καὶ kai οἰκείτω oikeitō ἐκεῖ ekei εἰς eis τὸν ton αἰῶνα, aiōna, καὶ kai τὴν tēn ὄψιν opsin αὐτοῦ autou πώμασον pōmason καὶ kai φῶς phōs μὴ mē θεωρείτω. theōreitō.

6

And on the day of the great judgment, he shall be cast into the burning.

Καὶ Kai ἐν en τῇ tē ἡμέρᾳ hēmera τῆς tēs μεγάλης megalēs κρίσεως kriseōs ἀπενεχθήσεται apenechthēsetai εἰς eis τὸν ton ἐμπυρισμόν. empyrismon.

7

And heal the earth, which the Watchers have corrupted; and proclaim the healing of the earth, that they may heal the plague, and that not all the sons of men may perish through the whole mystery which the Watchers handed down and taught to their sons.

Καὶ Kai ἴασαι iasai τὴν tēn γῆν, gēn, ἣν hēn ἠφάνισαν ēphanisan οἱ hoi ἐγρήγοροι, egrēgoroi, καὶ kai τὴν tēn ἴασιν iasin τῆς tēs γῆς gēs δήλωσον, dēlōson, ἵνα hina ἰάσωνται iasōntai τὴν tēn πληγὴν plēgēn καὶ kai μὴ mē ἀπολῶνται apolōntai πάντες pantes οἱ hoi υἱοὶ huioi τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn ἐν en τῷ tō μυστηρίῳ mystēriō τῷ tō ὅλῳ holō ᾧ hō κατέλιπον katelipon οἱ hoi ἐγρήγοροι egrēgoroi καὶ kai ἐδίδαξαν edidaxan τοὺς tous υἱοὺς huious αὐτῶν. autōn.

8

For the whole earth has been corrupted by the work of the teaching of Asael; and against him write down all the sins.

καὶ kai ἠφανίσθη ēphanisthē πᾶσα pasa ἡ hē γῆ gē ἐν en τῷ tō ἔργῳ ergō τῆς tēs διδασκαλίας didaskalias Ἀζαήλ, Azaēl, καὶ kai ἐπ' ep' αὐτὸν auton γράψον grapson πάσας pasas τὰς tas ἁμαρτίας. hamartias.

9

And to Gabriel the Lord said: Go against the bastards and the reprobates and against the sons of the Watchers; and destroy the sons of the Watchers from among men, and drive them out, and send them against one another, that they may destroy each other in battle, for length of days shall not be theirs.

Καὶ Kai τῷ tō Γαβριὴλ Gabriēl εἶπεν eipen ὁ ho κύριος· kyrios; Πορεύου Poreuou ἐπὶ epi τοὺς tous υἱοὺς huious τῶν tōn πορνῶν pornōn καὶ kai ἐπὶ epi τοὺς tous ἐκλεκτοὺς eklektous καὶ kai ἐπὶ epi τοὺς tous υἱοὺς huious τῶν tōn Ἐγρηγόρων· Egrēgorōn; καὶ kai ἀπόλεσον apoleson τοὺς tous υἱοὺς huious τῶν tōn πορνῶν pornōn καὶ kai τοὺς tous υἱοὺς huious τῶν tōn Ἐγρηγόρων Egrēgorōn ἐκ ek τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων, anthrōpōn, καὶ kai ἔκβαλε ekbale αὐτούς, autous, καὶ kai ἀπόστειλον aposteilon αὐτοὺς autous πρὸς pros ἑαυτούς, heautous, ἵνα hina ἀπόλωνται apolōntai ἑαυτοὺς heautous ἐν en αὐτοῖς autois ἐν en πολέμῳ polemō ἀπωλείας, apōleias, διότι dioti μακρότης makrotēs ἡμερῶν hēmerōn οὐκ ouk ἔσται estai αὐτοῖς. autois.

10

And no petition shall be granted to their fathers on their behalf, though they hope to live an eternal life, and that each of them shall live five hundred years.

καὶ kai πᾶσα pasa ἐρώτησις erōtēsis οὐκ ouk ἔσται estai τοῖς tois πατράσιν patrasin αὐτῶν autōn περὶ peri αὐτῶν, autōn, ὅτι hoti ἐλπίζουσιν elpizousin ζῆσαι zēsai ζωὴν zōēn αἰώνιον, aiōnion, καὶ kai ὅτι hoti ζήσεται zēsetai ἕκαστος hekastos αὐτῶν autōn ἔτη etē πεντακόσια. pentakosia.

11

And to Michael the Lord said: Go, Michael, and bind Šemiḥazah and the others with him, who have united themselves with the women, so that they have defiled themselves with them in their uncleanness.

Καὶ Kai τῷ tō Μιχαὴλ Michaēl εἶπεν eipen ὁ ho κύριος· kyrios; Πορεύου, Poreuou, Μιχαήλ, Michaēl, καὶ kai δῆσον dēson Σεμιαζᾶν Semiazan καὶ kai τοὺς tous ἄλλους allous τοὺς tous σὺν syn αὐτῷ autō τοὺς tous συμμιγέντας symmigentas τοῖς tois θηλείαις thēleiais τοῦ tou μιανθῆναι mianthēnai ἐν en αὐταῖς autais ἐν en τῇ tē ἀκαθαρσίᾳ akatharsia αὐτῶν. autōn.

12

And when their sons are slaughtered, and they see the destruction of their beloved ones, bind them for seventy generations in the valleys of the earth, until the day of their judgment and of their consummation, until the eternal judgment is completed.

Καὶ Kai ὅταν hotan κατασφαγῶσιν katasphagōsin οἱ hoi υἱοὶ huioi αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai ἴδωσιν idōsin τὴν tēn ἀπώλειαν apōleian τῶν tōn ἀγαπητῶν agapētōn αὐτῶν, autōn, δῆσον dēson αὐτοὺς autous ἑβδομήκοντα hebdomēkonta γενεὰς geneas εἰς eis τὰς tas νάπας napas τῆς tēs γῆς gēs μέχρι mechri ἡμέρας hēmeras κρίσεως kriseōs αὐτῶν autōn καὶ kai συντελείας, synteleias, ἕως heōs τοῦ tou τελεσθῆναι telesthēnai κρίμα krima τοῦ tou αἰῶνος aiōnos τῶν tōn αἰώνων. aiōnōn.

13

And in those days they shall be led away to the abyss of fire, to the torment and to the prison in which they shall be confined forever.

Καὶ Kai ἐν en ταῖς tais ἡμέραις hēmerais ἐκείναις ekeinais ἀπενεχθήσονται apenechthēsontai εἰς eis τὸν ton δεσμωτήριον desmōtērion τὸν ton ἄσβεστον asbeston τοῦ tou πυρὸς pyros εἰς eis τὸ to καυτήριον kautērion καὶ kai εἰς eis ἀφανισμὸν aphanismon τοῦ tou αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

14

And whoever from now on shall be condemned and destroyed along with them shall be bound with them until the consummation of their generation.

Καὶ Kai πᾶς pas ὃς hos ἂν an κατακριθῇ katakrithē καὶ kai ἀφανισθῇ aphanisthē ἀπὸ apo τοῦ tou νῦν nyn σὺν syn αὐτοῖς, autois, μέχρι mechri συντελείας synteleias γενεᾶς geneas δεθήσονται. dethēsontai.

15

And destroy all the spirits of the bastards and the sons of the Watchers, because they have wronged mankind.

Καὶ Kai ἀπόλεσον apoleson πάντα panta τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata τῶν tōn κιβδήλων kibdēlōn καὶ kai τοὺς tous υἱοὺς huious τῶν tōn Ἐγρηγόρων, Egrēgorōn, διότι dioti ἠδίκησαν ēdikēsan τοὺς tous ἀνθρώπους. anthrōpous.

16

And destroy all unrighteousness from the face of the earth, and let every work of unrighteousness come to an end; and let the plant of righteousness and of truth appear, and the work of righteousness shall be a blessing, and it shall be planted in truth as joy forever.

Καὶ Kai ἀπόλεσον apoleson πᾶσαν pasan ἀδικίαν adikian ἀπὸ apo προσώπου prosōpou τῆς tēs γῆς, gēs, καὶ kai πᾶν pan ἔργον ergon ἀδικίας adikias ἐκλιπέτω· eklipetō; καὶ kai ἐμφανήτω emphanētō τὸ to φυτὸν phyton τῆς tēs δικαιοσύνης dikaiosynēs καὶ kai τῆς tēs ἀληθείας, alētheias, καὶ kai ἔσται estai εἰς eis εὐλογίαν eulogian τὸ to ἔργον ergon τῆς tēs δικαιοσύνης, dikaiosynēs, καὶ kai ἐν en ἀληθείᾳ alētheia φυτευθήσεται phyteuthēsetai εἰς eis εὐφροσύνην euphrosynēn τοῦ tou αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

17

And now all the righteous shall escape, and shall live until they beget thousands; and all the days of their youth and their sabbath rest shall be completed in peace.

And then shall all the righteous escape, And shall live till they beget thousands of children, And all the days of their youth and their old age Shall they complete in peace.

And then shall the whole earth be tilled in righteousness, and trees shall be planted in it, and it shall be filled with blessing.

And then shall the whole earth be tilled in righteousness, and shall all be planted with trees and be full of blessing. 19. And all desirable trees shall be planted on it, and they shall plant vines on it: and the vine which they plant thereon shall yield wine in abundance, and as for all the seed which is sown thereon each measure (of it) shall bear a thousand, and each measure of olives shall yield ten presses of oil. 20. And cleanse thou the earth from all oppression, and from all unrighteousness, and from all sin, and from all godlessness: and all the uncleanness that is wrought upon the earth destroy from off the earth. 21. ⌈And all the children of men shall become righteous⌉, and all nations shall offer adoration and shall praise Me, and all shall worship Me. 22. And the earth shall be cleansed from all defilement, and from all sin, and from all punishment, and from all torment, and I will never again send (them) upon it from generation to generation and for ever.

And all the trees of joy shall be planted in it, and vines shall be planted in it; and the vine which is planted in it shall yield wine in abundance; and as for every seed that is sown in it, each measure shall yield a thousand, and each measure of olives shall yield ten baths.

Cleanse the earth from all unrighteousness, and from all uncleanness, and from all wrath, and from all plague.

And all the sons of men shall be righteous, and all the nations shall serve and bless him, and all shall worship.

And the earth shall be cleansed from all uncleanness, and from all lawlessness, and from all sin; and I will not again send wrath and plague upon it throughout all the generations of the age.

1 Enoch 11 — The eschatological promise of peace

1

And in those days I will open the storehouses of blessing which are in heaven, to send them down upon the earth, upon the works and the labor of the sons of men.

And in those days I will open the store chambers of blessing which are in the heaven, so as to send them down ⌈upon the earth⌉ over the work and labour of the children of men. 2. And truth and peace shall be associated together throughout all the days of the world and throughout all the generations of men.’

1 Enoch 12 — Enoch the scribe of righteousness

1

Before these things, Enoch was taken; and none of mankind knew where he had been taken, or where he was, or what had become of him.

Before these things Enoch was hidden, and no one of the children of men knew where he was hidden, and where he abode, and what had become of him. 2. And his activities had to do with the Watchers, and his days were with the holy ones.

Πρὸ Pro τούτων toutōn τῶν tōn λόγων logōn ἐλήμφθη elēmphthē Ἑνώχ, Henōch, καὶ kai οὐδεὶς oudeis τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn ἔγνω egnō ποῦ pou ἐλήμφθη, elēmphthē, καὶ kai ποῦ pou ἐστιν, estin, καὶ kai τί ti ἐγένετο egeneto αὐτῷ. autō.

And his days were with the Holy Ones, and his days were with the Watchers.

3

And I, Enoch, was blessing the Lord of majesty and the King of the age, and behold, the Watchers of the Great Holy One called me — Enoch the scribe — and they said to me:

And I Enoch was blessing the Lord of majesty and the King of the ages, and lo! the Watchers called me—Enoch the scribe—and said to me: 4. ‘Enoch, thou scribe of righteousness, go, †declare† to the Watchers of the heaven who have left the high heaven, the holy eternal place, and have defiled themselves with women, and have done as the children of earth do, and have taken unto themselves wives: 5. “Ye have wrought great destruction on the earth: And ye shall have no peace nor forgiveness of sin: and inasmuch as †they† delight themselves in †their† children, 6. The murder of †their† beloved ones shall †they† see, and over the destruction of †their† children shall †they† lament, and shall make supplication unto eternity, but mercy and peace shall ye not attain.”’

4

Enoch, scribe of righteousness, go and say to the Watchers of heaven — who have abandoned the high heaven, the holy and eternal station, and have defiled themselves with women, and have done as the sons of men do, and have taken wives to themselves, and have wrought great corruption upon the earth:

5

There shall be no peace for them upon the earth, nor any forgiveness of sins; for they shall not rejoice in their sons.

And the slaughter of their beloved ones they shall behold, and over the destruction of their sons they shall groan, and they shall make petition throughout the whole age, but there shall be no mercy and no peace for them.

Chapter 13

1 Enoch 13 — Enoch the intercessor and the Watchers' petition

1

And Enoch went and said to Asael: Go, there shall be no peace for you. A great sentence has gone forth against you, to bind you.

And Enoch went and said: ‘Azâzêl, thou shalt have no peace: a severe sentence has gone forth against thee to put thee in bonds: 2. And thou shalt not have toleration nor †request† granted to thee, because of the unrighteousness which thou hast taught, and because of all the works of godlessness and unrighteousness and sin which thou hast shown to men.’ 3. Then I went and spoke to them all together, and they were all afraid, and fear and trembling seized them. 4. And they besought me to draw up a petition for them that they might find forgiveness, and to read their petition in the presence of the Lord of heaven. 5. For from thenceforward they could not speak (with Him) nor lift up their eyes to heaven for shame of their sins for which they had been condemned. 6. Then I wrote out their petition, and the prayer †in regard to their spirits and their deeds individually and in regard to their requests that they should have forgiveness and length†. 7. And I went off and sat down at the waters of Dan, in the land of Dan, to the south of the west of Hermon: I read their petition till I fell asleep. 8. And behold a dream came to me, and visions fell down upon me, and I saw visions of chastisement, ⌈and a voice came bidding (me)⌉ I to tell it to the sons of heaven, and reprimand them. 9. And when I awaked, I came unto them, and they were all sitting gathered together, weeping in ’Abelsjâîl, which is between Lebanon and Sênêsêr, with their faces covered. 10. And I recounted before them all the visions which I had seen in sleep, and I began to speak the words of righteousness, and to reprimand the heavenly Watchers.

Καὶ Kai Ἑνὼχ Henōch πορευθεὶς poreutheis εἶπεν eipen τῷ tō Ἀζαήλ· Azaēl; Πορεύου, Poreuou, οὐκ ouk ἔσται estai σοι soi εἰρήνη· eirēnē; κρῖμα krima μέγα mega ἐξῆλθεν exēlthen κατὰ kata σοῦ sou τοῦ tou δῆσαί dēsai σε. se.

2

And there shall be no respite or petition granted to you on account of the unrighteous things you have shown — on account of all the unrighteousness and ungodliness and sin which you have shown to mankind.

καὶ kai ἄνεσις anesis καὶ kai ἐρώτησις erōtēsis οὐκ ouk ἔσται estai σοι soi περὶ peri ὧν hōn ὑπέδειξας hypedeixas ἀδικιῶν, adikiōn, καὶ kai περὶ peri πασῶν pasōn τῶν tōn ἀδικιῶν adikiōn καὶ kai τῆς tēs ἀσεβείας asebeias καὶ kai ἁμαρτίας hamartias ὅσα hosa ὑπέδειξας hypedeixas τοῖς tois ἀνθρώποις. anthrōpois.

3

And I went and spoke to them all together, and they were all afraid, and trembling and fear took hold of them.

Καὶ Kai πορευθεὶς poreutheis ἐλάλησα elalēsa πᾶσιν pasin αὐτοῖς autois ὁμοῦ, homou, καὶ kai ἐφοβήθησαν ephobēthēsan πάντες, pantes, καὶ kai τρόμος tromos καὶ kai φόβος phobos ἐπέλαβον epelabon αὐτούς. autous.

4

And they asked me to write a memorial of petition for them, that they might find forgiveness, and that I might bring the memorial of their petition before the Lord of heaven.

Καὶ Kai ἠρώτησάν ērōtēsan με me γράψαι grapsai αὐτοῖς autois ἐρωτήσεως erōtēseōs ὑπόμνημα, hypomnēma, ἵνα hina γένηται genētai αὐτοῖς autois ἄφεσις, aphesis, καὶ kai ἵνα hina ἀναγάγω anagagō τὸ to ὑπόμνημα hypomnēma τῆς tēs ἐρωτήσεως erōtēseōs αὐτῶν autōn ἐνώπιον enōpion τοῦ tou κυρίου kyriou τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ. ouranou.

5

For they themselves could no longer speak, nor lift up their eyes to heaven, for shame on account of the sins they had committed and for which they had been condemned.

Διότι Dioti αὐτοὶ autoi οὐκέτι ouketi ἠδύναντο ēdynanto λαλῆσαι lalēsai οὐδὲ oude ἐπᾶραι eparai τοὺς tous ὀφθαλμοὺς ophthalmous αὐτῶν autōn εἰς eis τὸν ton οὐρανὸν ouranon ἀπὸ apo αἰσχύνης aischynēs περὶ peri ὧν hōn ἡμάρτοσαν hēmartosan καὶ kai ὧν hōn κατεκρίθησαν. katekrithēsan.

6

Then I wrote out the memorial of their petition, and the prayers of their spirits, concerning each of their deeds and what they asked — that they might have forgiveness and length of days.

Τότε Tote ἔγραψα egrapsa τὸ to ὑπόμνημα hypomnēma τῆς tēs ἐρωτήσεως erōtēseōs αὐτῶν autōn καὶ kai τὰς tas δεήσεις deēseis τῶν tōn πνευμάτων pneumatōn αὐτῶν autōn περὶ peri ἑκάστου hekastou ἔργου ergou αὐτῶν autōn καὶ kai περὶ peri ὧν hōn ἠρώτουν, ērōtoun, ἵνα hina γένηται genētai αὐτοῖς autois ἄφεσις aphesis καὶ kai μακρότης. makrotēs.

7

And I went and sat down by the waters of Dan, in the land of Dan, to the south-west of Hermon, and I read their memorial of petition until I fell asleep.

Καὶ Kai πορευθεὶς poreutheis ἐκάθισα ekathisa ἐπὶ epi τὰ ta ὕδατα hydata Δαν Dan τὰ ta ἐν en Δάν, Dan, τὰ ta ἐκ ek δεξιῶν dexiōn τοῦ tou Ἑρμωνιεὶμ Hermōnieim τὰ ta πρὸς pros δυσμάς, dysmas, καὶ kai ἀνεγίνωσκον aneginōskon τὸ to ὑπόμνημα hypomnēma τῶν tōn δεήσεων deēseōn αὐτῶν autōn μέχρι mechri οὗ hou ἐκοιμήθην. ekoimēthēn.

8

And behold, dreams came upon me, and visions fell upon me, and I saw visions of the great judgment in my eyes — and a voice came to me, saying: Speak to the sons of heaven, that they may be rebuked.

Καὶ Kai ἰδοὺ idou ὁράματα horamata ἤρχοντο, ērchonto, καὶ kai ὁπτασίαι optasiai ἐπ' ep' ἐμοῦ emou ἔπιπτον, epipton, καὶ kai τὰς tas βλεφαρίδας blepharidas τῶν tōn ὀφθαλμῶν ophthalmōn μου mou ἐπὶ epi τὰς tas πύλας pylas τοῦ tou παλατίου palatiou ἐπέλαβον. epelabon.

9

And when I awoke, I went to them, and they were all gathered together in mourning at Abel-segael, which is between Lebanon and Senesēr, with their faces covered.

Καὶ Kai πορευθεὶς poreutheis ἐλάλησα elalēsa πᾶσιν pasin αὐτοῖς autois ὁμοῦ, homou, καὶ kai συνήχθησαν synēchthēsan πάντες pantes πενθοῦντες penthountes ἐν en Ἀβελ-σεγαὴλ, Abel-segaēl, ἥ hē ἐστιν estin μεταξὺ metaxy Λιβάνου Libanou καὶ kai Σενεσὲρ, Seneser, κεκαλυμμένοι kekalymmenoi τοῖς tois προσώποις. prosōpois.

10

And I told them all the visions which I had seen in my sleep, and I began to speak the words of righteousness, and to rebuke the Watchers of heaven.

Καὶ Kai ἐλάλησα elalēsa ἐνώπιον enōpion αὐτῶν autōn πάντα panta τὰ ta ὁράματα horamata ἃ ha εἶδον eidon ἐν en τῷ tō ὕπνῳ, hypnō, καὶ kai ἠρξάμην ērxamēn λαλεῖν lalein τοὺς tous λόγους logous τῆς tēs δικαιοσύνης, dikaiosynēs, καὶ kai κατὰ kata τῶν tōn Ἐγρηγόρων Egrēgorōn τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ ouranou ἐπιτιμῶν. epitimōn.

Chapter 14

1 Enoch 14 — The throne-vision and the Great Glory

1

The book of the words of righteousness, and of the rebuke of the Watchers from of old, according to the command of the Holy Great One — in that vision which I saw.

The book of the words of righteousness, and of the reprimand of the eternal Watchers in accordance with the command of the Holy Great One in that vision. 2. I saw in my sleep what I will now say with a tongue of flesh and with the breath of my mouth: which the Great One has given to men to converse therewith and understand with the heart. 3. As He has created and given ⌈⌈to man the power of understanding the word of wisdom, so hath He created me also and given⌉⌉ me the power of reprimanding the Watchers, the children of heaven. 4. I wrote out your petition, and in my vision it appeared thus, that your petition will not be granted unto you ⌈⌈throughout all the days of eternity, and that judgement has been finally passed upon you: yea (your petition) will not be granted unto you⌉⌉. 5. And from henceforth you shall not ascend into heaven unto all eternity, and ⌈in bonds⌉ of the earth the decree has gone forth to bind you for all the days of the world. 6. And (that) previously you shall have seen the destruction of your beloved sons and ye shall have no pleasure in them, but they shall fall before you by the sword. 7. And your petition on their behalf shall not be granted, nor yet on your own: even though you weep and pray and speak all the words contained in the writing which I have written. 8. And the vision was shown to me thus: Behold, in the vision clouds invited me and a mist summoned me, and the course of the stars and the lightnings sped and hastened me, and the winds in the vision caused me to fly and lifted me upward, and bore me into heaven. 9. And I went in till I drew nigh to a wall which is built of crystals and surrounded by tongues of fire: and it began to affright me. 10. And I went into the tongues of fire and drew nigh to a large house which was built of crystals: and the walls of the house were like a tesselated floor (made) of crystals, and its groundwork was of crystal. 11. Its ceiling was like the path of the stars and the lightnings, and between them were fiery cherubim, and their heaven was (clear as) water. 12. A flaming fire surrounded the walls, and its portals blazed with fire. 13. And I entered into that house, and it was hot as fire and cold as ice: there were no delights of life therein: fear covered me, and trembling got hold upon me. 14. And as I quaked and trembled, I fell upon my face. 15. And I beheld a vision, And lo! there was a second house, greater than the former, and the entire portal stood open before me, and it was built of flames of fire. 16. And in every respect it so excelled in splendour and magnificence and extent that I cannot describe to you its splendour and its extent. 17. And its floor was of fire, and above it were lightnings and the path of the stars, and its ceiling also was flaming fire. 18. And I looked and saw ⌈⌈therein⌉⌉ a lofty throne: its appearance was as crystal, and the wheels thereof as the shining sun, and there was the vision of cherubim. 19. And from underneath the throne came streams of flaming fire so that I could not look thereon. 20. And the Great Glory sat thereon, and His raiment shone more brightly than the sun and was whiter than any snow. 21. None of the angels could enter and could behold His face by reason of the magnificence and glory and no flesh could behold Him. 22. The flaming fire was round about Him, and a great fire stood before Him, and none around could draw nigh Him: ten thousand times ten thousand (stood) before Him, yet He needed no counsellor. 23. And the most holy ones who were nigh to Him did not leave by night nor depart from Him. 24. And until then I had been prostrate on my face, trembling: and the Lord called me with His own mouth, and said to me: ‘Come hither, Enoch, and hear my word.’ 25. ⌈And one of the holy ones came to me and waked me⌉, and He made me rise up and approach the door: and I bowed my face downwards.

Βίβλος Biblos λόγων logōn δικαιοσύνης dikaiosynēs καὶ kai ἐπιτίμησις epitimēsis τῶν tōn Ἐγρηγόρων Egrēgorōn τῶν tōn ἀπ' ap' αἰῶνος aiōnos κατὰ kata τὴν tēn ἐντολὴν entolēn τοῦ tou ἁγίου hagiou τοῦ tou μεγάλου megalou ἐν en τῷ tō ὁράματι horamati ἐκείνῳ ekeinō ᾧ hō εἶδον. eidon.

2

In this my vision I beheld: a cloud was covering me, and a mist was covering me, and a star was passing through the vapor, and flashes of lightning and peals of thunder were urging me on.

ἐν en τῷ tō ὁράματί horamati μου mou τούτῳ toutō θεωρῶ theōrō ὅτι hoti νέφος nephos ἐκάλυπτέν ekalypten με, me, καὶ kai ὁμίχλη homichlē με me ἐκάλυπτεν, ekalypten, καὶ kai ἀστὴρ astēr διώδευεν diōdeuen διὰ dia τῆς tēs ἀτμίδος, atmidos, καὶ kai ἀστραπαὶ astrapai καὶ kai βρονταὶ brontai ἐσπούδαζόν espoudazon με. me.

3

And in my vision, the winds gave me wings, and they bore me upward, and they brought me into heaven.

καὶ kai οἱ hoi ἄνεμοι anemoi ἐν en τῷ tō ὁράματί horamati μου mou τοῦ tou ἐνυπνίου enypniou ἐπτέρωσάν epterōsan με me καὶ kai ἐπῆράν epēran με me ἄνω, anō, καὶ kai εἰσήνεγκάν eisēnenkan με me εἰς eis τὸν ton οὐρανόν. ouranon.

4

And I went in, until I drew near to a wall that was built of stones of hail, and tongues of fire encircled it; and it began to fill me with fear.

Καὶ Kai εἰσῆλθον, eisēlthon, ἕως heōs ἤγγισα ēngisa ἐπὶ epi τοῖχον, toichon, ὁκοδομημένον ōkodomēmenon ἐν en λίθοις lithois χαλάζης, chalazēs, καὶ kai γλῶσσαι glōssai πυρὸς pyros κύκλῳ kyklō αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai ἤρξατο ērxato ἐκφοβεῖν ekphobein με. me.

5

And I entered into the tongues of fire, and I drew near to a great house, built of stones of hail; and the walls of that house were as slabs of stone, and they were all of snow, and the floor was of snow.

Καὶ Kai εἰσῆλθον eisēlthon εἰς eis τὰς tas γλώσσας glōssas τοῦ tou πυρός, pyros, καὶ kai ἤγγισα ēngisa εἰς eis οἶκον oikon μέγαν megan ὁκοδομημένον ōkodomēmenon ἐν en λίθοις lithois χαλάζης, chalazēs, καὶ kai οἱ hoi τοῖχοι toichoi τοῦ tou οἴκου oikou ἐκείνου ekeinou ὡς hōs λιθόπλακες, lithoplakes, καὶ kai πᾶσαι pasai ἦσαν ēsan ἐκ ek χιόνος, chionos, καὶ kai τὰ ta ἐδάφη edaphē χιών. chiōn.

6

And the ceilings were as the passing stars and lightnings, and in their midst were cherubim of fire, and their heaven was water.

Καὶ Kai τὰ ta στεγάσματα stegasmata ἦν ēn ὡς hōs διοδεύοντες diodeuontes ἀστέρες asteres καὶ kai ἀστραπαί, astrapai, καὶ kai μέσον meson αὐτῶν autōn Χερουβὶν Cheroubin πυρὸς, pyros, καὶ kai ὁ ho οὐρανὸς ouranos αὐτῶν autōn ὕδωρ. hydōr.

7

And a flaming fire encircled its walls, and the door blazed with fire.

Καὶ Kai πῦρ pyr φλεγόμενον phlegomenon ἦν ēn κύκλῳ kyklō τοῖχον toichon αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai ἡ hē θύρα thyra ἐκαίετο ekaieto πυρί. pyri.

8

And I entered into that house, and it was hot as fire and cold as snow; and there was no delight of life within it. Fear covered me, and trembling took hold of me.

Καὶ Kai εἰσῆλθον eisēlthon εἰς eis τὸν ton οἶκον oikon ἐκεῖνον, ekeinon, καὶ kai ἦν ēn θερμὸς thermos ὡς hōs πῦρ pyr καὶ kai ψυχρὸς psychros ὡς hōs χιών, chiōn, καὶ kai οὐκ ouk ἦν ēn τέρψις terpsis ζωῆς zōēs ἐν en αὐτῷ· autō; φόβος phobos μου mou ἐκάλυψέν ekalypsen με, me, καὶ kai τρόμος tromos με me ἔλαβεν. elaben.

9

And quaking and trembling, I fell upon my face; and I beheld in my vision, and behold, there was another house, greater than this, and all its doors were open before me, and it was built of tongues of fire.

Καὶ Kai σειόμενος seiomenos καὶ kai τρέμων tremōn ἔπεσον epeson ἐπὶ epi πρόσωπόν prosōpon μου, mou, καὶ kai ἐθεώρουν etheōroun ἐν en τῷ tō ὁράματί horamati μου, mou, καὶ kai ἰδοὺ idou ἄλλος allos οἶκος oikos μείζων meizōn τούτου, toutou, καὶ kai πᾶσαι pasai αἱ hai θύραι thyrai ἀνεωγμέναι aneōgmenai ἐνώπιόν enōpion μου, mou, καὶ kai ὁκοδομημένος ōkodomēmenos ἐν en γλώσσαις glōssais πυρός. pyros.

10

And in all things it so excelled in glory and honor and majesty that I cannot recount to you its glory and its majesty.

Καὶ Kai ἐν en παντὶ panti ὑπερεῖχεν hyperechen ἐν en δόξῃ doxē καὶ kai ἐν en τιμῇ timē καὶ kai ἐν en μεγαλωσύνῃ megalōsynē ὥστε hōste ἀδύνατόν adynaton με me ὑμῖν hymin ἐκδιηγήσασθαι ekdiēgēsasthai περὶ peri τῆς tēs δόξης doxēs καὶ kai τῆς tēs μεγαλωσύνης megalōsynēs αὐτοῦ. autou.

11

And its floor was of fire, and above it were lightnings and passing stars, and its ceiling was of flaming fire.

Καὶ Kai τὸ to ἔδαφος edaphos ἦν ēn πυρός, pyros, καὶ kai τὰ ta ἐπάνω epanō αὐτοῦ autou ἀστραπαὶ astrapai καὶ kai διοδεύοντες diodeuontes ἀστέρες, asteres, καὶ kai τὰ ta στεγάσματα stegasmata αὐτοῦ autou πῦρ pyr φλεγόμενον. phlegomenon.

12

And I beheld, and I saw therein a lofty throne; and its appearance was as of crystal, and its wheel was as the shining sun, and there was the voice of cherubim.

Καὶ Kai ἐθεώρουν, etheōroun, καὶ kai εἶδον eidon ἐν en αὐτῷ autō θρόνον thronon ὑψηλόν, hypsēlon, καὶ kai τὸ to εἶδος eidos αὐτοῦ autou ὡσεὶ hōsei κρύσταλλος, krystallos, καὶ kai ὁ ho τροχὸς trochos ὡς hōs ἥλιος hēlios λάμπων, lampōn, καὶ kai φωνὴ phōnē Χερουβίν. Cheroubin.

13

And from beneath the throne came forth rivers of flaming fire, and I could not look upon it.

Καὶ Kai ὑποκάτωθεν hypokatōthen τοῦ tou θρόνου thronou ἐξεπορεύοντο exeporeuonto ποταμοὶ potamoi πυρὸς pyros φλεγομένου, phlegomenou, καὶ kai οὐκ ouk ἠδυνάμην ēdynamēn ἰδεῖν. idein.

14

And the Great Glory was seated upon it; his raiment was as the appearance of the shining sun, and whiter than any snow.

Καὶ Kai ἡ hē δόξα doxa ἡ hē μεγάλη megalē ἐκάθητο ekathēto ἐπ' ep' αὐτῷ, autō, τὸ to περιβόλαιον peribolaion αὐτοῦ autou ὡς hōs εἶδος eidos ἡλίου hēliou λάμπον, lampon, καὶ kai λευκότερον leukoteron πάσης pasēs χιόνος. chionos.

15

And none of the angels could enter into that house, nor look upon his face, by reason of its honor and glory; and no flesh could behold him.

Καὶ Kai οὐδεὶς oudeis τῶν tōn ἀγγέλων angelōn οὐκ ouk ἠδύνατο ēdynato εἰσελθεῖν eiselthein εἰς eis τὸν ton οἶκον oikon τοῦτον touton καὶ kai ἰδεῖν idein τὸ to πρόσωπον prosōpon αὐτοῦ autou διὰ dia τὸ to ἔντιμον entimon καὶ kai ἔνδοξον, endoxon, καὶ kai οὐκ ouk ἠδύνατο ēdynato πᾶσα pasa σὰρξ sarx ἰδεῖν idein αὐτόν. auton.

16

Flaming fire encircled him, and a great fire stood before him, and none of those who surrounded him drew near to him.

Πῦρ Pyr φλεγόμενον phlegomenon ἦν ēn κύκλῳ kyklō αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai πῦρ pyr μέγα mega ἑστήκει hestēkei ἐνώπιον enōpion αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai οὐδεὶς oudeis οὐκ ouk ἤγγιζεν ēngizen αὐτῷ autō ἐκ ek τῶν tōn κυκλούντων kykloutōn αὐτόν. auton.

17

Ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him, and every word of his is deed.

Μύριαι Myriai μυριάδες myriades ἑστήκασιν hestēkasin ἐνώπιον enōpion αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai πᾶς pas λόγος logos αὐτοῦ autou ἔργον. ergon.

18

And his holy angels and the honored ones did not depart by night or by day, standing before him.

Καὶ Kai οἱ hoi ἅγιοι hagioi ἄγγελοι angeloi αὐτοῦ autou καὶ kai οἱ hoi τίμιοι timioi οὐκ ouk ἀφίσταντο aphistanto νυκτὸς nyktos οὐδὲ oude ἡμέρας hēmeras ἑστηκότες hestēkotes ἐνώπιον enōpion αὐτοῦ. autou.

19

And until then I was on my face, trembling; and the Lord spoke with his lips, and I heard his voice: Fear not, Enoch, you man of truth and scribe of truth — draw near here, and hear my voice.

Καὶ Kai ἐγὼ egō ἤμην ēmēn ἕως heōs τότε tote ἐπὶ epi προσώπου prosōpou μου mou τρέμων, tremōn, καὶ kai εἶπεν eipen ὁ ho κύριος kyrios τοῖς tois χείλεσιν cheilesin αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai ἤκουσα ēkousa αὐτοῦ autou τὴν tēn φωνήν· phōnēn; Μὴ Mē φοβοῦ, phobou, Ἑνὼχ Henōch ἄνθρωπε anthrōpe ἀληθινὲ alēthine καὶ kai γραμματεὺ grammateu τῆς tēs ἀληθείας, alētheias, πρόσελθε proselthe ὧδε hōde καὶ kai ἄκουσον akouson τὴν tēn φωνήν phōnēn μου. mou.

20

And one of the Holy Ones came to me, and raised me up, and set me upon my feet, and brought me near to the door; and I had my face bent downward.

Καὶ Kai προσελθὼν proselthōn εἷς heis τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn πρὸς pros ἐμὲ eme ἤγειρέν ēgeiren με me καὶ kai ἔστησέν estēsen με me ἐπὶ epi τοὺς tous πόδας, podas, καὶ kai προσῆξεν prosēxen ἕως heōs τῆς tēs θύρας· thyras; καὶ kai ἐγὼ egō τὸ to πρόσωπόν prosōpon μου mou κάτω katō ἔνευον. eneuon.

21

And the Lord called me with his own mouth and said to me: Draw near here, Enoch, and hear my holy word.

Καὶ Kai ὁ ho κύριος kyrios τῷ tō στόματι stomati αὐτοῦ autou ἐκάλεσέν ekalesen με me καὶ kai εἶπέν eipen μοι· moi; Ἔγγισον Engison ὧδε, hōde, Ἑνὼχ, Henōch, καὶ kai τῷ tō λόγῳ logō μου mou τῷ tō ἁγίῳ. hagiō.

22

And he raised me up, and brought me near to the door; and I kept my face bent downward.

Καὶ Kai ἤγειρέν ēgeiren με me καὶ kai ἤγγισέν ēngisen με me ἕως heōs τῆς tēs θύρας· thyras; καὶ kai ἐγὼ egō τὸ to πρόσωπόν prosōpon μου mou κάτω katō ἔνευον. eneuon.

23

And his holy angels, beyond number, stood at the gates, standing before him.

Καὶ Kai οἱ hoi ἅγιοι hagioi ἄγγελοι angeloi αὐτοῦ autou ἀναρίθμητοι anarithmētoi παριστάμενοι paristamenoi ἐν en ταῖς tais πύλαις pylais ἑστήκασιν hestēkasin ἐνώπιον enōpion αὐτοῦ. autou.

24

And until then I had been on my face, covered and trembling; and the Lord called me with his own mouth and said to me: Draw near here, Enoch, and hear my holy word.

Καὶ Kai ἕως heōs τότε tote ἤμην ēmēn ἐπὶ epi προσώπου prosōpou μου mou σκεπασμένος skepasmenos καὶ kai τρέμων· tremōn; καὶ kai ἐκάλεσέν ekalesen με me ὁ ho κύριος kyrios τῷ tō στόματι stomati αὐτοῦ autou καὶ kai εἶπέν eipen μοι· moi; Πρόσελθε Proselthe ὧδε, hōde, Ἑνώχ, Henōch, καὶ kai τῷ tō λόγῳ logō μου mou τῷ tō ἁγίῳ. hagiō.

25

And he raised me up, and brought me near to the door; and I kept my face bent downward.

Καὶ Kai ἤγειρέν ēgeiren με me καὶ kai προσήνεγκεν prosēnenken ἕως heōs τῆς tēs θύρας· thyras; καὶ kai ἐγὼ egō τὸ to πρόσωπόν prosōpon μου mou κάτω katō ἔνευον. eneuon.

Chapter 15

1 Enoch 15 — God's reply: the giants become evil spirits

1

And he answered me and spoke to me, and I heard his voice: Fear not, Enoch, you man of truth, scribe of truth — draw near here, and hear my voice.

And He answered and said to me, and I heard His voice: ‘Fear not, Enoch, thou righteous man and scribe of righteousness: approach hither and hear my voice. 2. And go, say to ⌈⌈the Watchers of heaven⌉⌉, who have sent thee to intercede ⌈⌈for them: "You should intercede⌉⌉ for men, and not men for you: 3. Wherefore have ye left the high, holy, and eternal heaven, and lain with women, and defiled yourselves with the daughters of men and taken to yourselves wives, and done like the children of earth, and begotten giants (as your) sons? 4. And though ye were holy, spiritual, living the eternal life, you have defiled yourselves with the blood of women, and have begotten (children) with the blood of flesh, and, as the children of men, have lusted after flesh and blood as those ⌈also⌉ do who die and perish. 5. Therefore have I given them wives also that they might impregnate them, and beget children by them, that thus nothing might be wanting to them on earth. 6. But you were ⌈formerly⌉ spiritual, living the eternal life, and immortal for all generations of the world. 7. And therefore I have not appointed wives for you; for as for the spiritual ones of the heaven, in heaven is their dwelling. 8. And now, the giants, who are produced from the spirits and flesh, shall be called evil spirits upon the earth, and on the earth shall be their dwelling. 9. Evil spirits have proceeded from their bodies; because they are born from men ⌈⌈and⌉⌉ from the holy Watchers is their beginning and primal origin; ⌈they shall be evil spirits on earth, and⌉ evil spirits shall they be called. 10. [As for the spirits of heaven, in heaven shall be their dwelling, but as for the spirits of the earth which were born upon the earth, on the earth shall be their dwelling.] 11. And the spirits of the giants afflict, oppress, destroy, attack, do battle, and work destruction on the earth, and cause trouble: they take no food, ⌈but nevertheless hunger⌉ and thirst, and cause offences. 12. And these spirits shall rise up against the children of men and against the women, because they have proceeded ⌈from them⌉.

Καὶ Kai ἀποκριθεὶς apokritheis εἶπέν eipen μοι, moi, καὶ kai τὴν tēn φωνὴν phōnēn αὐτοῦ autou ἤκουσα· ēkousa; Μὴ Mē φοβοῦ, phobou, Ἑνὼχ, Henōch, ἄνθρωπε anthrōpe ἀληθινὲ alēthine καὶ kai τῆς tēs ἀληθείας alētheias γραμματεύς· grammateu; πρόσελθε proselthe ὧδε hōde καὶ kai ἄκουσον akouson τὴν tēn φωνήν phōnēn μου. mou.

2

And go, say to the Watchers of heaven who have sent you to petition on their behalf: It is you who ought to petition on behalf of mankind, and not mankind on behalf of you.

καὶ kai πορεύου poreuou εἰπὲ eipe τοῖς tois Ἐγρηγόροις Egrēgorois τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ, ouranou, οἵτινες hoitines ἀπέστειλάν apesteilan σε se ἐρωτῆσαι erōtēsai περὶ peri αὐτῶν· autōn; Ὑμεῖς Hymeis ὀφείλετε opheilete ἐρωτᾶν erōtan περὶ peri τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων, anthrōpōn, καὶ kai μὴ mē οἱ hoi ἄνθρωποι anthrōpoi περὶ peri ὑμῶν. hymōn.

3

Why did you abandon the high, the holy, the eternal heaven, and lie with women, and defile yourselves with the daughters of men, and take wives to yourselves, and do as the sons of the earth do, and beget giant sons?

Διὰ Dia τί ti ἀφήκατε aphēkate τὸν ton οὐρανὸν ouranon τὸν ton ὑψηλὸν hypsēlon τὸν ton ἅγιον hagion τοῦ tou αἰῶνος, aiōnos, καὶ kai μετὰ meta τῶν tōn γυναικῶν gynaikōn ἐκοιμήθητε, ekoimēthēte, καὶ kai μετὰ meta τῶν tōn θυγατέρων thygaterōn τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn ἐμιάνθητε, emianthēte, καὶ kai ἐλάβετε elabete ἑαυτοῖς heautois γυναῖκας, gynaikas, καὶ kai ὥσπερ hōsper οἱ hoi υἱοὶ huioi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs ἐποιήσατε, epoiēsate, καὶ kai ἐγεννήσατε egennēsate υἱοὺς huious γίγαντας; gigantas?

4

And you — though you were sanctuaries of living, immortal spirits throughout all the generations of the age — yet you defiled yourselves with the blood of women, and begot offspring in the blood of flesh, and lusted after the blood of men, and did as those who are flesh and blood do.

Καὶ Kai ὑμεῖς hymeis ἁγιάσματα hagiasmata πνευμάτων pneumatōn ζώντων zōntōn ἀθανάτων athanatōn εἰς eis πάσας pasas τὰς tas γενεὰς geneas τοῦ tou αἰῶνος aiōnos ὑπήρξατε, hypērxate, καὶ kai ἐν en τῷ tō αἵματι haimati τῶν tōn γυναικῶν gynaikōn ἐμιάνθητε, emianthēte, καὶ kai ἐν en αἵματι haimati σαρκὸς sarkos ἐγεννήσατε, egennēsate, καὶ kai ἐν en αἵματι haimati ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn ἐπεθυμήσατε, epethymēsate, καὶ kai ἐποιήσατε epoiēsate ὥσπερ hōsper ποιοῦσιν poiousin σὰρξ sarx καὶ kai αἷμα. haima.

5

Therefore I gave them wives, that they might sow seed in them, and that children might be born of them, so that nothing should fail them upon the earth.

Διὰ Dia τοῦτο touto ἔδωκα edōka αὐτοῖς autois γυναῖκας, gynaikas, ἵνα hina σπείρωσιν speirōsin εἰς eis αὐτὰς autas καὶ kai τεκνωθήσονται teknōthēsontai τέκνα tekna ἐξ ex αὐτῶν, autōn, ἵνα hina μηδὲν mēden ἐκλίπῃ eklipē αὐτοῖς autois ἀπὸ apo τῆς tēs γῆς. gēs.

6

But you from the beginning were spiritual, living an eternal life, immortal throughout all the generations of the age.

Ὑμεῖς Hymeis δὲ de τὸ to πρῶτον prōton πνευματικοὶ pneumatikoi ζῶντες zōntes αἰωνίως aiōniōs ἀθάνατοι athanatoi εἰς eis πάσας pasas τὰς tas γενεὰς geneas τοῦ tou αἰῶνος aiōnos ὑπήρχετε. hypērchete.

7

Therefore I did not make females among you; the spiritual ones of heaven — their dwelling is in heaven.

διὰ dia τοῦτο touto οὐκ ouk ἐποίησα epoiēsa ἐν en ὑμῖν hymin θηλείας· thēleias; οἱ hoi πνευματικοὶ pneumatikoi τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ, ouranou, ἐν en τῷ tō οὐρανῷ ouranō ἡ hē κατοίκησις katoikēsis αὐτῶν. autōn.

8

And now the giants, who have been born of spirits and flesh — they shall be called evil spirits upon the earth, and their dwelling shall be upon the earth.

Καὶ Kai νῦν nyn οἱ hoi γίγαντες gigantes οἱ hoi γεννηθέντες gennēthentes ἀπὸ apo τῶν tōn πνευμάτων pneumatōn καὶ kai σαρκὸς, sarkos, πνεύματα pneumata ἰσχυρὰ ischyra ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs καλέσουσιν kalesousin αὐτούς, autous, καὶ kai ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs ἔσται estai ἡ hē κατοίκησις katoikēsis αὐτῶν. autōn.

9

Evil spirits shall come forth out of their bodies, because they were born from those above; and from the holy Watchers is the beginning of their creation and their first foundation. Evil spirits they shall be upon the earth, and they shall be called evil spirits.

πνεύματα pneumata πονηρὰ ponēra ἐκ ek τοῦ tou σώματος sōmatos αὐτῶν autōn ἐξελεύσονται, exeleusontai, διότι dioti ἀπὸ apo τῶν tōn ἄνωθεν anōthen γεγένηνται, gegenēntai, καὶ kai ἐκ ek τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn Ἐγρηγόρων Egrēgorōn ἡ hē ἀρχὴ archē τῆς tēs κτίσεως ktiseōs αὐτῶν autōn καὶ kai ἀρχὴ archē θεμελίου, themeliou, πνεύματα pneumata πονηρὰ ponēra ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs ἔσται, estai, καὶ kai πνεύματα pneumata πονηρὰ ponēra καλέσουσιν kalesousin αὐτά. auta.

10

The spirits of heaven — their dwelling is in heaven; but the spirits born on the earth — their dwelling is on the earth.

Τὰ Ta πνεύματα pneumata τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ ouranou ἐν en τῷ tō οὐρανῷ ouranō ἡ hē κατοίκησις katoikēsis αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata τὰ ta ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs γεννώμενα gennōmena ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs ἡ hē κατοίκησις katoikēsis αὐτῶν. autōn.

11

And the spirits of the giants — wronging the clouds, corrupting, attacking, fighting, and crushing upon the earth, and causing grief — eat nothing, but they hunger and thirst, and they cause offense.

καὶ kai τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata τῶν tōn γιγάντων gigantōn νεφέλας nephelas ἀδικοῦντα adikounta φθείροντα phtheironta προσπίπτοντα prospiptonta μαχόμενα machomena καὶ kai συντρίβοντα syntribonta ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς, gēs, καὶ kai λύπην lypēn ποιοῦντα· poiounta; καὶ kai οὐκ ouk ἐσθίοντα esthionta οὐθέν, outhen, ἀλλὰ alla ἀσιτοῦντα, asitounta, καὶ kai διψῶντα, dipsōnta, καὶ kai προσκόπτοντα. proskoptonta.

12

And these spirits shall rise up against the sons of men and against the women, because they have come forth from them.

Καὶ Kai ἐξανίστανται exanistantai ταῦτα tauta τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata ἐπὶ epi τοὺς tous υἱοὺς huious τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn καὶ kai ἐπὶ epi τὰς tas γυναῖκας, gynaikas, ὅτι hoti ἐξεληλύθασιν exelēlythasin ἀπ' ap' αὐτῶν. autōn.

Chapter 16

1 Enoch 16 — The Watchers' indictment sealed

1

From the day of the time of the slaughter and destruction and death of the giants — from whom the spirits have come forth — those bringing shame shall perish; and until the day of the consummation of the great judgment, in which the great age shall be completed, it shall be completed together with the Watchers and the ungodly.

From the days of the slaughter and destruction and death ⌈of the giants⌉, from the souls of whose flesh the spirits, having gone forth, shall destroy without incurring judgement—thus shall they destroy until the day of the consummation, the great ⌈judgement⌉ in which the age shall be consummated, over the Watchers and the godless, yea, shall be wholly consummated." 2. And now as to the watchers who have sent thee to intercede for them, who had been ⌈⌈aforetime in heaven⌉⌉, (say to them): 3. “You have been in heaven, but ⌈all⌉ the mysteries had not yet been revealed to you, and you knew worthless ones, and these in the hardness of your hearts you have made known to the women, and through these mysteries women and men work much evil on earth."

Ἀπὸ Apo ἡμέρας hēmeras τοῦ tou καιροῦ kairou τῆς tēs σφαγῆς sphagēs καὶ kai ἀπωλείας apōleias καὶ kai θανάτου thanatou τῶν tōn γιγάντων, gigantōn, οἱ hoi ὁπόθεν hopothen τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata ἐξεληλύθασιν, exelēlythasin, οἱ hoi καταισχύνοντες kataischynontes ἀπολῶνται· apolountai; καὶ kai μέχρι mechri ἡμέρας hēmeras τελειώσεως teleiōseōs τῆς tēs κρίσεως kriseōs τῆς tēs μεγάλης, megalēs, ἐν en ᾗ hē ὁ ho αἰὼν aiōn ὁ ho μέγας megas τελεσθήσεται, telesthēsetai, ἅμα hama τοῖς tois Ἐγρηγόροις Egrēgorois καὶ kai ἀσεβέσιν, asebesin, τελεσθήσεται. telesthēsetai.

2

And now, to the Watchers who sent you to petition on their behalf — who from the beginning were in heaven — say:

Καὶ Kai νῦν nyn τοῖς tois Ἐγρηγόροις, Egrēgorois, οἵτινες hoitines ἀπέστειλάν apesteilan σε se ἐρωτῆσαι erōtēsai περὶ peri αὐτῶν, autōn, οἵτινες hoitines τὸ to πρῶτον prōton ἐν en τῷ tō οὐρανῷ ouranō ἦσαν, ēsan, εἰπέ· eipe;

3

You were in heaven, and though no mystery had been revealed to you, yet a worthless mystery you knew; and this you made known to the women in the hardness of your hearts; and through this mystery the women and men multiplied evils upon the earth.

Ὑμεῖς Hymeis ἦτε ēte ἐν en τῷ tō οὐρανῷ, ouranō, καὶ kai πᾶν pan μυστήριον mystērion ὃ ho οὐκ ouk ἀνεκαλύφθη anekalyphthē ὑμῖν, hymin, καὶ kai μυστήριον mystērion τὸ to ἐκ ek τοῦ tou θεοῦ theou γεγονὸς gegonos ἔγνωτε, egnōte, καὶ kai τοῦτο touto ἐμηνύσατε emēnysate ταῖς tais γυναιξὶν gynaixin ἐν en τῇ tē σκληροκαρδίᾳ sklērokardia ὑμῶν, hymōn, καὶ kai ἐν en τῷ tō μυστηρίῳ mystēriō τούτῳ toutō πληθύνουσιν plēthynousin αἱ hai θήλειαι thēleiai καὶ kai οἱ hoi ἄνθρωποι anthrōpoi τὰ ta κακὰ kaka ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς. gēs.

4

Say to them: There shall be no peace for you.

Say to them therefore: “You have no peace.”’

Λέγε Lege αὐτοῖς· autois; Οὐκ Ouk ἔσται estai ὑμῖν hymin εἰρήνη. eirēnē.

1 Enoch 17 — Enoch's first cosmic tour: the fiery mountain, the river of fire, and the abyss

1

And they took me and led me to a certain place, in which those who were there become as flaming fire, and when they wish, they appear as men.

And they took ⌈and brought⌉ me to a place in which those who were there were like flaming fire, and, when they wished, they appeared as men. 2. And they brought me to the place of darkness, and to a mountain the point of whose summit reached to heaven. 3. And I saw the places of the luminaries ⌈and the treasuries of the stars⌉ and of the thunder ⌈and⌉ in the uttermost depths, where were a fiery bow and arrows and their quiver, ⌈⌈and a fiery sword⌉⌉ and all the lightnings. 4. And they took me to the living waters, and to the fire of the west, which receives every setting of the sun. 5. And I came to a river of fire in which the fire flows like water and discharges itself into the great sea towards the west. 6. I saw the great rivers and came to the great ⌈river and to the great⌉ darkness, and went to the place where no flesh walks. 7. I saw the mountains of the darkness of winter and the place whence all the waters of the deep flow. 8. I saw the mouths of all the rivers of the earth and the mouth of the deep.

Καὶ Kai παραλαβόντες paralabontes με me εἴς eis τινα tina τόπον topon ἤγαγον, ēgagon, ἐν en ᾧ hō οἱ hoi ὄντες ontes ἐκεῖ ekei γίνονται ginontai ὡς hōs πῦρ pyr φλεγόμενον, phlegomenon, καὶ kai ὅταν hotan θέλωσιν thelōsin φαίνονται phainontai ὡς hōs ἄνθρωποι. anthrōpoi.

2

And they led me to a dark place, and to a mountain, the summit of which reached to heaven.

Καὶ Kai ἤγαγόν ēgagon με me εἰς eis τόπον topon σκοτεινόν, skoteinon, καὶ kai εἰς eis ὄρος, oros, οὗ hou ἡ hē κεφαλὴ kephalē ἀφικνεῖτο aphikneito εἰς eis τὸν ton οὐρανόν. ouranon.

3

And I saw the places of the luminaries, and the storehouses of the stars and of the thunders, and into the uttermost depths of the abyss, where were a bow of fire and its arrows and their quiver, and all the lightnings.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τόπους topous τῶν tōn φωστήρων phōstērōn καὶ kai τοὺς tous θησαυροὺς thēsaurous τῶν tōn ἀστέρων asterōn καὶ kai τῶν tōn βροντῶν, brontōn, καὶ kai εἰς eis τὰ ta ἀκρότατα akrotata τοῦ tou ἀβύσσου, abyssou, ὅπου hopou τόξον toxon πυρὸς pyros καὶ kai τὰ ta βέλη belē αὐτῶν autōn καὶ kai ἡ hē θήκη thēkē αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai πᾶσαι pasai αἱ hai ἀστραπαί. astrapai.

4

And they led me as far as the gloomy water, and as far as the fire of the west, which receives every setting of the sun.

Καὶ Kai ἤγαγόν ēgagon με me μέχρι mechri τοῦ tou ζοφώδους zophōdous ὕδατος hydatos καὶ kai μέχρι mechri τοῦ tou πυρὸς pyros τῆς tēs δύσεως, dyseōs, τὸ to προσδεχόμενον prosdechomenon πάντας pantas τοὺς tous φωστῆρας phōstēras τοῦ tou ἡλίου. hēliou.

5

And I came to a river of fire, whose fire flows like water, and pours itself into the great sea toward the west.

Καὶ Kai ἦλθον ēlthon ἐπὶ epi ποταμὸν potamon πυρός, pyros, οὗ hou τὸ to πῦρ pyr ῥεῖ rhei ὡς hōs ὕδωρ, hydōr, καὶ kai ἐκχεῖται ekcheitai εἰς eis θάλασσαν thalassan μεγάλην megalēn πρὸς pros δυσμάς. dysmas.

6

And I saw the great rivers, and I drew near as far as the great river and as far as the great darkness, and I went forth to where no flesh walks.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τοὺς tous ποταμοὺς potamous τοὺς tous μεγάλους, megalous, καὶ kai ἕως heōs τοῦ tou μεγάλου megalou ποταμοῦ potamou καὶ kai ἕως heōs τοῦ tou μεγάλου megalou σκότους skotous ἤγγισα, ēngisa, καὶ kai ἀπῆλθον apēlthon ὅπου hopou πᾶσα pasa σὰρξ sarx οὐ ou περιπατεῖ. peripatei.

7

And I saw the mountains of the darkness of winter, and the place where all the water of the abyss pours itself out.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τὰ ta ὄρη orē τοῦ tou σκότους skotous τοῦ tou χειμῶνος cheimōnos καὶ kai τὸν ton τόπον topon οὗ hou ἐκχεῖται ekcheitai πᾶν pan τὸ to ὕδωρ hydōr τῆς tēs ἀβύσσου. abyssou.

8

And I saw the mouth of all the rivers of the earth, and the mouth of the abyss.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τὸ to στόμα stoma πάντων pantōn τῶν tōn ποταμῶν potamōn τῆς tēs γῆς gēs καὶ kai τὸ to στόμα stoma τῆς tēs ἀβύσσου. abyssou.

Chapter 18

1 Enoch 18 — The seven mountains of God and the prison of the fallen stars

1

And I saw the storehouses of all the winds; and I saw that by them he has ordered all creation and the foundations of the earth.

I saw the treasuries of all the winds: I saw how He had furnished with them the whole creation and the firm foundations of the earth. 2. And I saw the corner-stone of the earth: I saw the four winds which bear [the earth and] the firmament of the heaven. 3. ⌈⌈And I saw how the winds stretch out the vaults of heaven⌉⌉, and have their station between heaven and earth: ⌈⌈these are the pillars of the heaven⌉⌉. 4. I saw the winds of heaven which turn and bring the circumference of the sun and all the stars to their setting. 5. I saw the winds on the earth carrying the clouds: I saw ⌈⌈the paths of the angels. I saw⌉⌉ at the end of the earth the firmament of the heaven above. 6. And I proceeded and saw a place which burns day and night, where there are seven mountains of magnificent stones, three towards the east, and three towards the south. 7. And as for those towards the east, 〈one〉 was of coloured stone, and one of pearl, and one of jacinth, and those towards the south of red stone. 8. But the middle one reached to heaven like the throne of God, of alabaster, and the summit of the throne was of sapphire. 9. And I saw a flaming fire. 10. And beyond these mountains Is a region the end of the great earth: there the heavens were completed. 11. And I saw a deep abyss, with columns ⌈⌈of heavenly fire, and among them I saw columns⌉⌉ of fire fall, which were beyond measure alike towards the height and towards the depth. 12. And beyond that abyss I saw a place which had no firmament of the heaven above, and no firmly founded earth beneath it: there was no water upon it, and no birds, but it was a waste and horrible place. 13. I saw there seven stars like great burning mountains, and to me, when I inquired regarding them, 14. The angel said: ‘This place is the end of heaven and earth: this has become a prison for the stars and the host of heaven. 15. And the stars which roll over the fire are they which have transgressed the commandment of the Lord in the beginning of their rising, because they did not come forth at their appointed times. 16. And He was wroth with them, and bound them till the time when their guilt should be consummated (even) ⌈for ten thousand years⌉.’

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τοὺς tous θησαυροὺς thēsaurous τῶν tōn ἀνέμων anemōn πάντων· pantōn; καὶ kai εἶδον eidon ὅτι hoti ἐν en αὐτοῖς autois ἐκόσμησεν ekosmēsen πᾶσαν pasan τὴν tēn κτίσιν ktisin καὶ kai τοὺς tous θεμελίους themelious τῆς tēs γῆς. gēs.

2

And I saw the cornerstone of the earth; and I saw the four winds which bear up the earth and the firmament of heaven.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τὸν ton λίθον lithon τῆς tēs γωνίας gōnias τῆς tēs γῆς· gēs; καὶ kai εἶδον eidon τοὺς tous τέσσαρας tessaras ἀνέμους anemous τοὺς tous βαστάζοντας bastazontas τὴν tēn γῆν gēn καὶ kai τὸ to στερέωμα stereōma τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ. ouranou.

3

And I saw that the winds stretch out the heights of heaven, and stand between heaven and earth: these are the pillars of heaven.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon ὅτι hoti οἱ hoi ἄνεμοι anemoi ἐκτείνουσιν ekteinousin τὰ ta ὕψη hypsē τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ, ouranou, καὶ kai ἑστήκασιν hestēkasin ἀνὰ ana μέσον meson οὐρανοῦ ouranou καὶ kai γῆς· gēs; οὗτοί houtoi εἰσιν eisin οἱ hoi στῦλοι styloi τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ. ouranou.

4

And I saw the winds of heaven turning and bringing along the orb of the sun, and all the stars.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τοὺς tous ἀνέμους anemous τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ ouranou στρέφοντας strephontas καὶ kai ἐπιφέροντας epipherontas τὸν ton τροχὸν trochon τοῦ tou ἡλίου, hēliou, καὶ kai πάντας pantas τοὺς tous ἀστέρας. asteras.

5

And I saw the winds upon the earth bearing the clouds. And I saw the paths of the angels; I saw at the end of the earth the firmament of heaven above.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τοὺς tous ἀνέμους anemous ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς gēs βαστάζοντας bastazontas τὰς tas νεφέλας. nephelas. Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon τὰς tas ὁδοὺς hodous τῶν tōn ἀγγέλων· angelōn; εἶδον eidon ἐπὶ epi τοῦ tou πέρατος peratos τῆς tēs γῆς gēs τὸ to στερέωμα stereōma τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ ouranou ἐπάνω. epanō.

6

And I passed on and saw a place which burns night and day, where there are seven mountains of precious stones, three toward the east and three toward the south.

Καὶ Kai διώδευσα diōdeusa καὶ kai εἶδον eidon τόπον topon καιόμενον kaiomenon νυκτὸς nyktos καὶ kai ἡμέρας, hēmeras, ὅπου hopou ἑπτὰ hepta ὄρη orē ἐκ ek λίθων lithōn πολυτελῶν, polytelōn, τρία tria πρὸς pros ἀνατολὰς anatolas καὶ kai τρία tria πρὸς pros νότον. noton.

7

And of those toward the east, one was of colored stone, and one of pearl, and one of jasper; and those toward the south were of red stone.

Καὶ Kai τῶν tōn πρὸς pros ἀνατολὰς anatolas ἓν hen ἐκ ek λίθου lithou χρωματιστοῦ, chrōmatistou, καὶ kai ἓν hen ἐκ ek μαργαρίτου, margaritou, καὶ kai ἓν hen ἐξ ex ἰάσπεως· iaspeōs; καὶ kai τὰ ta τοῦ tou νότου notou ἐκ ek λίθου lithou ἐρυθροῦ. erythrou.

8

And the middle one among them reached to heaven, like the throne of God, of alabaster stone, and the summit of the throne was of sapphire.

Τὸ To δὲ de μέσον meson αὐτῶν autōn προσήγγιζεν prosēngizen τῷ tō οὐρανῷ, ouranō, ὡσεὶ hōsei θρόνος thronos θεοῦ theou ἐκ ek λίθου lithou ἀλάβαστρου, alabastrou, καὶ kai τὸ to ἄκρον akron τοῦ tou θρόνου thronou ἐκ ek σαπφείρου. sappheirou.

9

And I saw a flaming fire. And beyond those mountains I saw a place — the end of the great earth: there the heavens come to completion.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon πῦρ pyr φλεγόμενον. phlegomenon. Καὶ Kai τὰ ta πέρα pera τῶν tōn ὀρέων oreōn ἐκείνων ekeinōn εἶδον eidon τόπον, topon, πέρας peras τῆς tēs μεγάλης megalēs γῆς· gēs; ἐκεῖ ekei συντελοῦνται syntelountai οἱ hoi οὐρανοί. ouranoi.

10

And I saw a great chasm with pillars of celestial fire, and I saw within it pillars of celestial fire descending — without measure, without height, without depth.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon χάσμα chasma μέγα mega ἐν en στύλοις stylois πυρὸς pyros οὐρανίου, ouraniou, καὶ kai εἶδον eidon ἐν en αὐτῷ autō καταβαίνοντας katabainontas στύλους stylous τοῦ tou πυρὸς pyros οὐρανίου, ouraniou, οὔτε oute εἰς eis μέτρον metron οὔτε oute εἰς eis ὕψος hypsos οὔτε oute εἰς eis βάθος. bathos.

11

And beyond this chasm I saw a place which had no firmament of heaven above it, nor any earth firmly founded beneath it; and there was no water upon it, and no birds — but it was a desolate and terrible place.

Καὶ Kai ἐπέκεινα epekeina τοῦ tou χάσματος chasmatos τούτου toutou εἶδον eidon τόπον topon οὐχ ouch ἔχοντα echonta στερέωμα stereōma οὐρανοῦ ouranou ἐπάνω, epanō, οὔτε oute γῆν gēn τεθεμελιωμένην tethemeliōmenēn ὑποκάτω hypokatō αὐτοῦ· autou; καὶ kai ὕδωρ hydōr οὐκ ouk ἦν ēn ἐπ' ep' αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai οὐδὲ oude πετεινά, peteina, ἀλλὰ alla τόπος topos ἦν ēn ἔρημος erēmos καὶ kai φοβερός. phoberos.

12

And I saw there a terrible place, with no heaven above and no earth firmly founded — only a desolate and terrible place.

Καὶ Kai τόπον topon εἶδον eidon ἐκεῖ ekei φοβερόν, phoberon, οὔτε oute οὐρανὸν ouranon ἄνω anō οὔτε oute γῆν gēn τεθεμελιωμένην, tethemeliōmenēn, ἀλλὰ alla τόπος topos ἔρημος erēmos καὶ kai φοβερὸς phoberos ἦν. ēn.

13

And I saw seven stars like great burning mountains, and like spirits, when I asked about them.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon ἑπτὰ hepta ἀστέρας asteras ὡς hōs ὄρη orē μεγάλα megala καιόμενα, kaiomena, καὶ kai ὡς hōs πνεύματα pneumata μοι moi ὁ ho ἐπερωτῶντος. eperōtōntos.

14

And the angel said: This place is the end of heaven and earth; this has become a prison for the stars of heaven and for the host of heaven.

Καὶ Kai εἶπεν eipen ὁ ho ἄγγελος· angelos; Οὗτος Houtos ὁ ho τόπος topos τέλος telos οὐρανοῦ ouranou καὶ kai γῆς· gēs; δεσμωτήριον desmōtērion τοῦτο touto ἐγένετο egeneto τοῖς tois ἀστράσιν astrasin τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ ouranou καὶ kai τῇ tē στρατιᾷ stratia τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ. ouranou.

15

And the stars which roll over in the fire are those which transgressed the commandment of God before their rising, because they did not come at their appointed time.

Καὶ Kai οἱ hoi ἀστέρες asteres οἱ hoi κυλιόμενοι kyliomenoi ἐν en τῷ tō πυρὶ pyri οὗτοί houtoi εἰσιν eisin οἱ hoi παραβάντες parabantes τὴν tēn ἐντολὴν entolēn τοῦ tou θεοῦ theou πρὸ pro τοῦ tou ἀνατεῖλαι anateilai αὐτούς, autous, ὅτι hoti οὐκ ouk ἦλθον ēlthon ἐν en τῷ tō καιρῷ kairō αὐτῶν. autōn.

16

And he was wrathful with them, and bound them until the time of the completion of their sin, until ten thousand years.

Καὶ Kai ὠργίσθη ōrgisthē αὐτοῖς, autois, καὶ kai ἔδησεν edēsen αὐτοὺς autous μέχρι mechri καιροῦ kairou τελειώσεως teleiōseōs τῆς tēs ἁμαρτίας hamartias αὐτῶν, autōn, ἕως heōs μυρίων myriōn ἐτῶν. etōn.

1 Enoch 19 — Uriel on the spirits of the fallen Watchers and the women-as-sirens

1

And Uriel said to me: Here shall stand the angels who united with women, and their spirits — having taken many forms — defile humankind and lead them astray into sacrificing to demons as to gods, until the day of the great judgment, on which they shall be judged unto consummation.

And Uriel said to me: ‘Here shall stand the angels who have connected themselves with women, and their spirits assuming many different forms are defiling mankind and shall lead them astray into sacrificing to demons ⌈⌈as gods⌉⌉, (here shall they stand,) till ⌈⌈the day of⌉⌉ the great judgement in which they shall be judged till they are made an end of. 2. And the women also of the angels who went astray shall become sirens.’ 3. And I, Enoch, alone saw the vision, the ends of all things: and no man shall see as I have seen.

Καὶ Kai εἶπέν eipen μοι moi Οὐριήλ· Ouriēl; Ἐνταῦθα Entautha στήσονται stēsontai οἱ hoi ἄγγελοι angeloi οἱ hoi συμμίξαντες symmixantes ταῖς tais γυναιξίν, gynaixin, καὶ kai τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata αὐτῶν autōn πολυμόρφοι polymorphoi γενόμενοι genomenoi λυμαίνονται lymainontai τοὺς tous ἀνθρώπους anthrōpous καὶ kai πλανήσουσιν planēsousin αὐτοὺς autous εἰς eis τὸ to θύειν thyein τοῖς tois δαιμονίοις daimoniois ὡς hōs θεοῖς, theois, ἕως heōs ἡμέρας hēmeras τῆς tēs μεγάλης megalēs κρίσεως, kriseōs, ἐν en ᾗ hē κριθήσονται krithēsontai εἰς eis ἀποτελείωσιν. apoteleiōsin.

2

And the women of the transgressing angels shall become sirens.

Καὶ Kai αἱ hai γυναῖκες gynaikes τῶν tōn παραβάντων parabantōn ἀγγέλων angelōn εἰς eis σειρῆνας seirēnas γενήσονται. genēsontai.

3

And I, Enoch, alone saw the vision, the ends of all things; and no man shall see as I have seen.

1 Enoch 21 — The prison of the rebellious stars and the prison of the fallen angels

1

And I went round about as far as a place where nothing is made.

And I proceeded to where things were chaotic. 2. And I saw there something horrible: I saw neither a heaven above nor a firmly founded earth, but a place chaotic and horrible. 3. And there I saw seven stars of the heaven bound together in it, like great mountains and burning with fire. 4. Then I said: ‘For what sin are they bound, and on what account have they been cast in hither?’ 5. Then said Uriel, one of the holy angels, who was with me, and was chief over them, and said: ‘Enoch, why dost thou ask, and why art thou eager for the truth? 6. These are of the number of the stars ⌈of heaven⌉, which have transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and are bound here till ten thousand years, the time entailed by their sins, are consummated.’ 7. And from thence I went to another place, which was still more horrible than the former, and I saw a horrible thing: a great fire there which burnt and blazed, and the place was cleft as far as the abyss, being full of great descending columns of fire: neither its extent or magnitude could I see, nor could I conjecture. 8. Then I said: ‘How fearful is the place and how terrible to look upon!’ 9. Then Uriel answered me, one of the holy angels who was with me, and said unto me: ‘Enoch, why hast thou such fear and affright?’ And I answered: ‘Because of this fearful place, and because of the spectacle of the pain.’ 10. And he said ⌈⌈unto me⌉⌉: ‘This place is the prison of the angels, and here they will be imprisoned for ever.’

Καὶ Kai ἐκύκλωσα ekyklōsa ἕως heōs τόπου topou ὅπου hopou οὐδὲν ouden ἐποίηται. epoiētai.

2

And I saw there a terrible thing: no height of heaven, no earth firmly founded, but an unformed and terrible place.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon ἐκεῖ ekei φοβερὸν phoberon ἔργον· ergon; οὐκ ouk οὐρανὸν ouranon ὕψος hypsos οὔτε oute γῆν gēn τεθεμελιωμένην, tethemeliōmenēn, ἀλλὰ alla τόπον topon ἀκατασκεύαστον akataskeuaston καὶ kai φοβερόν. phoberon.

3

And there I saw seven stars of heaven bound in it, like great mountains, and burning in fire.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖ ekei εἶδον eidon ἑπτὰ hepta ἀστέρας asteras τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ ouranou δεδεμένους dedemenous ἐν en αὐτῷ autō ὁμοίους homoious ὄρεσι oresi μεγάλοις, megalois, καὶ kai ἐν en πυρὶ pyri καιομένους. kaiomenous.

4

Then I said: For what cause are they bound, and why have they been cast here?

Τότε Tote εἶπον· eipon; Διὰ Dia ποίαν poian αἰτίαν aitian δέδενται dedentai καὶ kai διὰ dia τί ti ὧδε hōde ἐρρίφησαν; errhiphēsan?

5

Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me and who was leading them, said to me: Enoch, why do you ask, and why do you search out, and why are you eager for knowledge?

Τότε Tote εἶπέν eipen μοι moi Οὐριήλ, Ouriēl, ὁ ho εἷς heis τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn ἀγγέλων, angelōn, ὃς hos μετ' met' ἐμοῦ emou ἦν ēn καὶ kai αὐτὸς autos ἡγεῖτο hēgeito αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai εἶπεν· eipen; Ἑνώχ, Henōch, διὰ dia τί ti ἐρωτᾷς erōtas καὶ kai διὰ dia τί ti ἀνερευνᾷς anereunas καὶ kai φιλομαθεῖς; philomatheis?

6

These are of the stars of heaven, those who transgressed the commandment of the Lord, and they were bound here until the completion of ten thousand thousands of years, the time of their transgressions.

Οὗτοί Houtoi εἰσιν eisin τῶν tōn ἀστέρων asterōn τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ ouranou οἱ hoi παραβάντες parabantes τὴν tēn ἐντολὴν entolēn τοῦ tou κυρίου kyriou καὶ kai ἐδέθησαν edethēsan ὧδε hōde μέχρι mechri τοῦ tou τελειῶσαι teleiōsai μυρίων myriōn χιλιάδων chiliadōn ἐτῶν etōn τοῦ tou χρόνου chronou τῶν tōn ἁμαρτημάτων hamartēmatōn αὐτῶν. autōn.

7

And from there I went to another place, more terrible than the former; and I saw a terrible sight — a great fire there burning and blazing — and the place had divisions and reached to the abyss, full of great pillars of fire descending. Its measure and its size I could not see, nor could I conjecture.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖθεν ekeithen ἀπῆλθον apēlthon εἰς eis ἄλλον allon τόπον, topon, φοβερώτερον phoberōteron τοῦ tou ἐκείνου· ekeinou; εἶδον eidon δὲ de φοβερὸν phoberon θέαμα, theama, πῦρ pyr μέγα mega ἐκεῖ ekei καιόμενον kaiomenon καὶ kai φλεγόμενον, phlegomenon, καὶ kai διαιρέσεις diaireseis εἶχεν eichen ὁ ho τόπος topos καὶ kai τέλος telos εἶχεν eichen ἕως heōs τῆς tēs ἀβύσσου, abyssou, μεστὸς mestos στύλων stylōn πυρὸς pyros μεγάλων megalōn καταφερομένων· katapheromenōn; οὔτε oute μέτρον metron αὐτοῦ autou οὔτε oute μέγεθος megethos ἠδυνάμην ēdynamēn ἰδεῖν, idein, οὔτε oute εἰκάσαι. eikasai.

8

Then I said: How terrible is this place, and how dreadful to behold!

Τότε Tote εἶπον· eipon; Ὡς Hōs φοβερὸς phoberos ὁ ho τόπος topos καὶ kai ὡς hōs δεινὸς deinos εἰς eis θεωρίαν. theōrian.

9

Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered me and said: Enoch, why do you have such fear and trembling? And I answered: Because of this terrible place, and because of the sight of pain.

Τότε Tote ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē μοι moi Οὐριήλ, Ouriēl, ὁ ho εἷς heis τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn ἀγγέλων angelōn ὃς hos μετ' met' ἐμοῦ emou ἦν, ēn, καὶ kai εἶπέν eipen μοι· moi; Ἑνώχ, Henōch, διὰ dia τί ti φόβον phobon τοιοῦτον toiouton ἔχεις echeis καὶ kai τρόμον; tromon?

10

And he said: This place is the prison of the angels, and here they shall be kept forever.

Καὶ Kai εἶπεν· eipen; Οὗτος Houtos ὁ ho τόπος topos δεσμωτήριον desmōtērion τῶν tōn ἀγγέλων angelōn ἐστὶν, estin, καὶ kai ὧδε hōde συσχεθήσονται syschethēsontai ἕως heōs αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

1 Enoch 22 — The four hollow places for the spirits of the dead

1

And from there I journeyed to another place, and he showed me toward the west a great and lofty mountain, and a hard rock, and four places.

And thence I went to another place, and he showed me in the west ⌈another⌉ great and high mountain [and] of hard rock. {| class="wikitable" |- ! Ethiopic !! Greek |- | 2. And there was in it †four† hollow places, deep and wide and very smooth. †How† smooth are the hollow places and deep and dark to look at.|| 2. And there were †four† hollow places in it, deep and very smooth: †three† of them were dark and one bright and there was a fountain of water in its midst. And I said: ‘†How† smooth are these hollow places, and deep and dark to view.’ |}

ומן ū-min תמן tammān הלכת hălaktī לאתר lě-ʾătar אחרן ʾoḥrān ואחזיני wĕ-ʾaḥzěyānī למערבא lě-maʿarbāʾ טור ṭūr רב rab ורם wĕ-rām וכף wĕ-kēf קשי qašī וארבעת wĕ-ʾarbaʿat אתרין ʾatrīn

2

And three of them were dark, and one was bright, with a spring of water in its midst.

Καὶ Kai ἦσαν ēsan τρεῖς treis αὐτῶν autōn σκοτεινοί, skoteinoi, καὶ kai εἷς heis φωτεινός, phōteinos, καὶ kai πηγὴ pēgē ὕδατος hydatos ἀνὰ ana μέσον meson αὐτοῦ. autou.

3

And Raphael, one of the holy angels who was with me, said to me: These are the hollow places, that the spirits of the souls of the dead may be gathered into them.

Then Raphael answered, one of the holy angels who was with me, and said unto me: ‘These hollow places have been created for this very purpose, that the spirits of the souls of the dead should assemble therein, yea that all the souls of the children of men should assemble here. 4. And these places have been made to receive them till the day of their judgement and till their appointed period [till the period appointed], till the great judgement (comes) upon them.’ {| class="wikitable" |- ! Ethiopic !! Greek |- | 5. I saw the spirits of the children of men who were dead, and their voice went forth to heaven and made suit. 6. Then I asked Raphael the angel who was with me, and I said unto him: ‘This spirit—whose is it, whose voice goeth forth and maketh suit?’|| 5. I saw 〈the spirit of〉 a dead man making suit, and his voice went forth to heaven and made suit. 6. And I asked Raphael the angel who was with me, and I said unto him: ‘This spirit which maketh suit, whose is it, whose voice goeth forth and maketh suit to heaven?’ |}

Καὶ Kai εἶπέν eipen μοι moi Ῥαφαὴλ Raphaēl ὁ ho εἷς heis τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn ἀγγέλων angelōn ὃς hos μετ' met' ἐμοῦ emou ἦν, ēn, καὶ kai εἶπέν eipen μοι· moi; Οὗτοι Houtoi οἱ hoi τόποι topoi οἱ hoi κοῖλοι, koiloi, ἵνα hina ἐπισυνάγωνται episynagōntai εἰς eis αὐτοὺς autous τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata τῶν tōn ψυχῶν psychōn τῶν tōn νεκρῶν. nekrōn.

4

For this purpose they were created, that here all the souls of human beings may be gathered together.

Εἰς Eis τοῦτο touto ἐκτίσθησαν, ektisthēsan, ἵνα hina ἐνταῦθα entautha ἐπισυνάγωνται episynagōntai πᾶσαι pasai αἱ hai ψυχαὶ psychai τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων. anthrōpōn.

5

And I beheld the spirits of the sons of men who had died, and their voice reached to heaven, and made accusation.

Καὶ Kai ἐθεώρουν etheōroun τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata τῶν tōn υἱῶν huiōn τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn τῶν tōn τεθνηκότων, tethnēkotōn, καὶ kai ἡ hē φωνὴ phōnē αὐτῶν autōn εἰς eis οὐρανὸν ouranon ἐνέτυχεν enetychen καὶ kai ἐνεκαλεῖτο. enekaleito.

6

Then I asked Raphael, the angel who was with me, and said: Whose spirit is this which is making accusation, whose voice goes forth and makes accusation up to heaven?

Τότε Tote ἠρώτησα ērōtēsa Ῥαφαὴλ Raphaēl τὸν ton ἄγγελον angelon τὸν ton μετ' met' ἐμοῦ emou καὶ kai εἶπον· eipon; Τίνος Tinos τὸ to πνεῦμα pneuma τοῦτο touto τὸ to ἐγκαλούμενον, enkaloumenon, οὗ hou ἡ hē φωνὴ phōnē αὐτοῦ autou ἐξέρχεται exerchetai καὶ kai ἐγκαλεῖ enkalei εἰς eis τὸν ton οὐρανόν; ouranon?

7

And he answered me, saying: This is the spirit which went forth from Abel, whom Cain his brother slew; and it makes accusation against him until his seed is destroyed from the face of the earth, and his seed is blotted out from among the seed of men.

And he answered me saying: ‘This is the spirit which went forth from Abel, whom his brother Cain slew, and he makes his suit against him till his seed is destroyed from the face of the earth, and his seed is annihilated from amongst the seed of men.’ {| class="wikitable" |- ! Ethiopic !! Greek |- | 8. Then I asked regarding it, and regarding all the hollow places: ’Why is one separated from the other?’ || 8. Then I asked regarding all the hollow places: ‘Why is one separated from the other?’ |} {| class="wikitable" |- ! Ethiopic !! Greek |- | 9. And he answered me and said unto me: ‘These three have been made that the spirits of the dead might be separated. And such a division has been made 〈for〉 the spirits of the righteous, in which there is the bright spring of water. 10. And such has been made for sinners when they die and are buried in the earth and judgement has not been executed on them in their lifetime. 11. Here their spirits shall be set apart in this great pain till the great day of judgement and punishment and torment of those who curse for ever and retribution for their spirits. There He shall bind them for ever. 12. And such a division has been made for the spirits of those who make their suit, who make disclosures concerning their destruction, when they were slain in the days of the sinners. 13. Such has been made for the spirits of men who were not righteous but sinners, who were complete in transgression, and of the transgressors they shall be companions: but their spirits shall not be slain in the day of judgement nor shall they be raised from thence. 14. Then I blessed the Lord of glory and said: ‘Blessed be my Lord, the Lord of righteousness, who ruleth for ever.’ || 9. And he answered me saying: ‘These three have been made that the spirits of the dead might be separated.

And this division has been made for the spirits of those who make their suit, who make disclosures concerning their destruction, when they were slain in the days of the sinners. 13. And this has been made for the spirits of men who shall not be righteous but sinners, who are godless, and of the lawless they shall be companions: but their spirits shall not be punished in the day of judgement nor shall they be raised from thence. 14. Then I blessed the Lord of glory and said: ’Blessed art Thou, Lord of righteousness, who ruleth over the world.’ |}

8

Then I asked concerning him and concerning the judgment of all, and said: Why is one separated from another?

Τότε Tote ἠρώτησα ērōtēsa περὶ peri αὐτοῦ autou καὶ kai περὶ peri τῆς tēs κρίσεως kriseōs πάντων pantōn καὶ kai εἶπον· eipon; Διὰ Dia τί ti ἕτερος heteros ἀφ' aph' ἑτέρου heterou διακεχώρισται; diakechōristai?

9

And he answered me, saying: These three have been made, that the spirits of the dead might be separated. And thus the spirits of the righteous have been set apart — that one in which is the bright spring of water.

Καὶ Kai ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē μοι moi λέγων· legōn; Οὗτοι Houtoi οἱ hoi τρεῖς treis ἐποιήθησαν, epoiēthēsan, ἵνα hina διαχωρίζωνται diachōrizōntai τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata τῶν tōn νεκρῶν· nekrōn; καὶ kai οὕτως houtōs διεκρίθησαν diekrithēsan τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata τῶν tōn δικαίων, dikaiōn, οὗ hou ἡ hē πηγὴ pēgē τοῦ tou ὕδατος hydatos ἐν en αὐτῷ autō φωτεινή. phōteinē.

10

And this has been made for sinners, when they die and are buried in the earth, and judgment has not been executed upon them in their lifetime.

Καὶ Kai οὕτως houtōs ἐκτίσθη ektisthē τοῖς tois ἁμαρτωλοῖς, hamartōlois, ὅταν hotan ἀποθάνωσιν apothanōsin καὶ kai ταφῶσιν taphōsin εἰς eis τὴν tēn γῆν gēn καὶ kai κρίσις krisis οὐκ ouk ἐγένετο egeneto ἐπ' ep' αὐτοῖς autois ἐν en τῇ tē ζωῇ zōē αὐτῶν. autōn.

11

Here their spirits shall be set apart into this great torment, until the great day of judgment, and of the scourgings and torments of the accursed forever.

Ὧδε Hōde χωρίζεται chōrizetai τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata αὐτῶν autōn εἰς eis τὴν tēn μεγάλην megalēn βάσανον basanon ταύτην, tautēn, ἕως heōs ἡμέρας hēmeras μεγάλης megalēs τῆς tēs κρίσεως kriseōs καὶ kai τῶν tōn μαστιγώσεων mastigōseōn καὶ kai βασάνων basanōn τῶν tōn κατηραμένων katēramenōn μέχρι mechri αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

12

And this has been made for the spirits of the righteous who make accusation, those who disclose what happened to their destruction, when they were slain in the days of sinners.

Καὶ Kai οὗτος houtos ἐκτίσθη ektisthē τοῖς tois πνεύμασιν pneumasin τῶν tōn δικαίων dikaiōn τῶν tōn ἐγκαλούντων, enkalouтōn, οἵτινες hoitines ὑποδηλοῦσιν hypodēlousin περὶ peri τῆς tēs ἀπωλείας, apōleias, ὅταν hotan ἀνῃρέθησαν anērēthēsan ἐν en ταῖς tais ἡμέραις hēmerais τῶν tōn ἁμαρτωλῶν. hamartōlōn.

13

And this has been made for the spirits of those who are not holy but sinners, who are completed in ungodliness, and shall be companions with the lawless. And their spirits shall not be punished on the day of judgment, nor shall they be raised from there.

Καὶ Kai οὕτως houtōs ἐκτίσθη ektisthē τοῖς tois πνεύμασιν pneumasin τῶν tōn ἀνθρώπων anthrōpōn ὅσοι hosoi οὐχ ouch ὅσιοι hosioi ἀλλὰ alla ἁμαρτωλοί, hamartōloi, οἵτινες hoitines συντετελεσμένοι syntetelesmenoi ἀσεβεῖς asebeis εἰσιν eisin καὶ kai μετὰ meta τῶν tōn ἀνόμων anomōn ἔσονται esontai μέτοχοι, metochoi, καὶ kai τὰ ta πνεύματα pneumata αὐτῶν autōn οὐ ou τιμωρηθήσονται timōrēthēsontai ἐν en ἡμέρᾳ hēmera τῆς tēs κρίσεως, kriseōs, οὐδὲ oude μὴ mē μετεγερθῶσιν metegerthōsin ἐντεῦθεν. enteuthen.

14

Then I blessed the Lord of glory, and said: Blessed are you, Lord of righteousness, who rules forever.

Τότε Tote εὐλόγησα eulogēsa τὸν ton κύριον kyrion τῆς tēs δόξης doxēs καὶ kai εἶπον· eipon; Εὐλογητὸς Eulogētos εἶ, ei, κύριε kyrie τῆς tēs δικαιοσύνης dikaiosynēs ὁ ho κυριεύων kyrieuōn τοῦ tou αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

Chapter 23

1 Enoch 23 — The fire of the West that chases the luminaries

1

And from there I went to another place of the earth, and he showed me toward the west a mountain of blazing fire, which ran by day and by night.

From thence I went to another place to the west of the ends of the earth. 2. And I saw a burning fire which ran without resting, and paused not from its course day or night but (ran) regularly. 3. And I asked saying: ‘What is this which rests not?’ 4. Then Raguel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered me ⌈⌈and said unto me⌉⌉: ‘This course ⌈of fire⌉ ⌈⌈which thou hast seen⌉⌉ is the fire in the west which †persecutes† all the luminaries of heaven.’

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖθεν ekeithen ἀπῆλθον apēlthon εἰς eis ἄλλον allon τόπον topon τῆς tēs γῆς, gēs, καὶ kai ἔδειξέν edeixen μοι moi πρὸς pros δυσμὰς dysmas ὄρος oros πυρὸς pyros ἀνάπτοντος, anaptontos, διώκοντος diōkontos ἡμέρας hēmeras καὶ kai νυκτός. nyktos.

2

And I went toward it, and I saw seven glorious mountains, all differing from one another.

Καὶ Kai ἐπορεύθην eporeuthēn πρὸς pros αὐτό, auto, καὶ kai εἶδον eidon ἑπτὰ hepta ὄρη orē ἔνδοξα, endoxa, πάντα panta διαφόρους diaphorous ἀλλήλων allēlōn ἔχοντα. echonta.

3

And I asked the angel, saying: My lord, what is this fire which does not rest?

Καὶ Kai ἠρώτησα ērōtēsa τὸν ton ἄγγελον angelon λέγων· legōn; Κύριέ Kyrie μου, mou, τί ti ἐστιν estin τὸ to πῦρ pyr τοῦτο touto τὸ to μὴ mē ἀναπαυόμενον; anapauomenon?

4

Then Raguel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered me and said: This is the course of the fire, which pursues all the luminaries of heaven toward the west.

Τότε Tote ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē μοι moi Ῥαγουὴλ Raguēl ὁ ho εἷς heis τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn ἀγγέλων angelōn ὁ ho μετ' met' ἐμοῦ emou ὤν, ōn, καὶ kai εἶπέν eipen μοι· moi; Οὗτος Houtos ὁ ho δρόμος dromos τοῦ tou πυρός, pyros, τοῦ tou διώκοντος diōkontos πρὸς pros τὰ ta δυσμὰς dysmas πάντας pantas τοὺς tous φωστῆρας phōstēras τοῦ tou οὐρανοῦ. ouranou.

Chapter 24

1 Enoch 24 — The seven mountains revisited and the fragrant tree on the throne-mountain

1

And from there I went to another place of the earth, and he showed me a mountain of fire, which burned night and day.

⌈⌈And from thence I went to another place of the earth⌉⌉, and he showed me a mountain range of fire which burnt ⌈⌈day and⌉⌉ night. 2. And I went beyond it and saw seven magnificent mountains all differing each from the other, and the stones (thereof) were magnificent and beautiful, magnificent as a whole, of glorious appearance and fair exterior: ⌈⌈three towards⌉⌉ the east, ⌈⌈one⌉⌉ founded on the other, and three towards the south, ⌈⌈one⌉⌉ upon the other, and deep rough ravines, no one of which joined with any other. 3. And the seventh mountain was in the midst of these, and it excelled them in height, resembling the seat of a throne: and fragrant trees encircled the throne. 4. And amongst them was a tree such as I had never yet smelt, neither was any amongst them nor were others like it: it had a fragrance beyond all fragrance, and its leaves and blooms and wood wither not for ever: and its fruit ⌈⌈is beautiful, and its fruit⌉⌉ resembles the dates of a palm. 5. Then I said: ‘⌈How⌉ beautiful is this tree, and fragrant, and its leaves are fair, and its blooms ⌈⌈very⌉⌉ delightful in appearance.’ 6. Then answered Michael, one of the holy ⌈⌈and honoured⌉⌉ angels who was with me, and was their leader.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖθεν ekeithen ἀπῆλθον apēlthon εἰς eis ἄλλον allon τόπον topon τῆς tēs γῆς, gēs, καὶ kai ἔδειξέν edeixen μοι moi ὄρος oros πυρός, pyros, ὃ ho νυκτὸς nyktos καὶ kai ἡμέρας hēmeras ἀνῆπτεν. anēpten.

2

And I went toward it and saw seven glorious mountains, all differing from one another, of precious and beautiful stones, glorious in appearance and lovely to look upon — three toward the east, one founded upon another, and three toward the south, one upon another, and deep ravines between them which did not approach one another.

Καὶ Kai ἐπορεύθην eporeuthēn πρὸς pros αὐτὸ auto καὶ kai εἶδον eidon ἑπτὰ hepta ὄρη orē ἔνδοξα, endoxa, πάντα panta τὰ ta μὲν men διαφέροντα diapheronta ἀλλήλων, allēlōn, λίθων lithōn ἐντίμων entimōn καὶ kai ὡραίων, hōraiōn, ἔνδοξα endoxa ἐν en εἴδει eidei καὶ kai ὡραῖα hōraia τὴν tēn ὄψιν· opsin; τρία tria πρὸς pros ἀνατολὰς anatolas ἓν hen ἐπὶ epi τοῦ tou ἑνὸς henos ἐστηριγμένον, estērigmenon, καὶ kai τρία tria πρὸς pros νότον noton ἓν hen ἐπὶ epi τοῦ tou ἑνός, henos, καὶ kai φάραγγες pharanges βαθεῖαι, batheiai, μήτε mēte ἐγγίζουσαι engizousai ἀλλήλαις. allēlais.

3

And there was a seventh mountain in the midst of them, exceeding them in height, like the seat of a throne; and fragrant trees encircled it.

Καὶ Kai ἕβδομον hebdomon ὄρος oros ἀνὰ ana μέσον meson αὐτῶν, autōn, ὑπερεῖχεν hypereichen αὐτοῖς autois ἐν en ὕψει, hypsei, ὅμοιον homoion καθέδρᾳ kathedra θρόνου, thronou, καὶ kai ἐκύκλουν ekykloun αὐτὸ auto δένδρα dendra εὐώδη. euōdē.

4

And among them was a tree such as I had never smelled, and none other was like it; its fragrance was sweeter than every fragrance, and its leaves and flower and wood never wither; its fruit is beautiful, its fruit like the clusters of a date palm.

Καὶ Kai ἐν en αὐτοῖς autois ἦν ēn δένδρον dendron τοιοῦτον toiouton οἷον hoion οὐ ou ἐγὼ egō οὔπω oupō ὠσφράνθην, ōsphranthēn, καὶ kai οὐδὲν ouden ἕτερον heteron ἦν ēn αὐτοῦ autou ὅμοιον· homoion; ὀσμὴν osmēn ἦν ēn εὐωδέστατος euōdestatos πάντων pantōn εὐωδῶν, euōdōn, καὶ kai τὰ ta φύλλα phylla αὐτοῦ autou καὶ kai τὸ to ἄνθος anthos καὶ kai τὸ to ξύλον xylon οὐδέποτε oudepote ξηραίνεται· xērainetai; ὁ ho καρπὸς karpos αὐτοῦ autou ὡραῖος, hōraios, ὁ ho καρπὸς karpos αὐτοῦ autou ὅμοιος homoios βότρυσιν botrysin φοίνικος. phoinikos.

5

Then I said: How beautiful is this tree, and how fragrant; and lovely are its leaves, and its flowers most lovely.

Τότε Tote εἶπον· eipon; Ὡς Hōs καλὸν kalon τὸ to δένδρον dendron τοῦτο touto καὶ kai εὐῶδες, euōdes, καὶ kai ὡραῖα hōraia τὰ ta φύλλα, phylla, καὶ kai τὰ ta ἄνθη anthē αὐτοῦ autou ὡραιότατα. hōraiotata.

6

Then Michael, one of the holy angels who was with me, and he was leading them, answered me.

Τότε Tote ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē μοι moi Μιχαὴλ, Michaēl, ὁ ho εἷς heis τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn ἀγγέλων angelōn ὁ ho μετ' met' ἐμοῦ emou ὤν, ōn, καὶ kai αὐτὸς autos αὐτῶν autōn ἡγεῖτο. hēgeito.

Chapter 25

1 Enoch 25 — Michael interprets the throne-mountain and the tree of life

1

And he said to me: Enoch, why do you ask, and why do you wonder at the fragrance of this tree, and why do you wish to know the truth?

And he said unto me: ‘Enoch, why dost thou ask me regarding the fragrance of the tree, and ⌈why⌉ dost thou wish to learn the truth?’ 2. Then I answered him ⌈⌈saying⌉⌉: ‘I wish to know about everything, but especially about this tree.’ 3. And he answered saying: ‘This high mountain ⌈⌈which thou hast seen⌉⌉, whose summit is like the throne of God, is His throne, where the Holy Great One, the Lord of Glory, the Eternal King, will sit, when He shall come down to visit the earth with goodness. 4. And as for this fragrant tree no mortal is permitted to touch it till the great judgement, when He shall take vengeance on all and bring (everything) to its consummation for ever. It shall then be given to the righteous and holy. 5. Its fruit shall be for food to the elect: it shall be transplanted to the holy place, to the temple of the Lord, the Eternal King.

Καὶ Kai εἶπέν eipen μοι· moi; Ἑνώχ, Henōch, διὰ dia τί ti ἐπερωτᾷς eperōtas καὶ kai διὰ dia τί ti θαυμάζεις thaumazeis περὶ peri τῆς tēs εὐωδίας euōdias τοῦ tou δένδρου dendrou τούτου, toutou, καὶ kai διὰ dia τί ti τὸ to ἀληθὲς alēthes ἐθέλεις etheleis γνῶναι; gnōnai?

2

Then I, Enoch, answered him, saying: I wish to know about all things, but most of all about this tree.

Τότε Tote ἀπεκρίθην apekrithēn αὐτῷ autō ἐγὼ egō Ἑνώχ, Henōch, λέγων· legōn; Περὶ Peri πάντων pantōn εἰδέναι eidenai θέλω, thelō, μάλιστα malista δὲ de περὶ peri τοῦ tou δένδρου dendrou τούτου. toutou.

3

And he answered me, saying: This high mountain, whose summit is like the throne of God, is the seat where the Holy and Great One, the Lord of glory, the eternal King, shall sit, when he descends to visit the earth with goodness.

Καὶ Kai ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē μοι moi λέγων· legōn; Τοῦτο Touto τὸ to ὄρος oros τὸ to ὑψηλόν, hypsēlon, οὗ hou ἡ hē κορυφὴ koryphē ὁμοία homoia θρόνῳ thronō θεοῦ, theou, καθέδρα kathedra ἐστὶν estin οὗ hou καθέσει kathesei ὁ ho ἅγιος hagios καὶ kai μέγας, megas, ὁ ho κύριος kyrios τῆς tēs δόξης, doxēs, ὁ ho βασιλεὺς basileus τοῦ tou αἰῶνος, aiōnos, ὅταν hotan κατέλθῃ katelthē ἐπισκέψασθαι episkepsasthai τὴν tēn γῆν gēn μετ' met' ἀγαθοῦ. agathou.

4

And this fragrant tree — no flesh has authority to touch it, until the great judgment, in which there shall be vengeance upon all and consummation forever.

Καὶ Kai τοῦτο touto τὸ to δένδρον dendron εὐωδίας, euōdias, οὐδεμία oudemia σὰρξ sarx ἐξουσίαν exousian ἔχει echei τοῦ tou ἅψασθαι, hapsasthai, μέχρι mechri τῆς tēs μεγάλης megalēs κρίσεως, kriseōs, ἐν en ᾗ hē ἐκδίκησις ekdikēsis πάντων pantōn καὶ kai τελείωσις teleiōsis μέχρι mechri αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

5

Then it shall be given to the righteous and the holy: its fruit for the elect, unto life; and it shall be transplanted to a holy place, beside the house of God, the eternal King.

Τότε Tote δικαίοις dikaiois καὶ kai ὁσίοις hosiois δοθήσεται· dothēsetai; ὁ ho καρπὸς karpos αὐτοῦ autou τοῖς tois ἐκλεκτοῖς eklektois εἰς eis ζωήν, zōēn, καὶ kai μεταφυτευθήσεται metaphyteuthēsetai εἰς eis τόπον topon ἅγιον, hagion, παρὰ para τὸν ton οἶκον oikon τοῦ tou θεοῦ, theou, τοῦ tou βασιλέως basileōs τοῦ tou αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

6

Then they shall rejoice with joy and be glad, and they shall enter the holy place; and its fragrance shall be in their bones, and they shall live a long life on earth, such as their fathers lived, and in their days no sorrow nor scourge nor torment nor plague shall touch them.

Then shall they rejoice with joy and be glad, And into the holy place shall they enter; And its fragrance shall be in their bones, And they shall live a long life on earth, Such as thy fathers lived: And in their days shall no ⌈⌈sorrow⌉⌉ or plague Or torment or calamity touch them.’

Τότε Tote εὐφρανθήσονται euphranthēsontai εὐφραινόμενοι euphrainomenoi καὶ kai χαρήσονται, charēsontai, καὶ kai εἰς eis τὸν ton ναὸν naon εἰσελεύσονται· eiseleusontai; καὶ kai ὀσμὴ osmē αὐτοῦ autou ἔσται estai ἐν en τοῖς tois ὀστέοις osteois αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai ζωὴν zōēn ζήσονται zēsontai μακρὰν makran ἐπὶ epi τῆς tēs γῆς, gēs, ὁποίαν hopoian ἔζησαν ezēsan οἱ hoi πατέρες pateres αὐτῶν, autōn, καὶ kai ἐν en ταῖς tais ἡμέραις hēmerais αὐτῶν autōn λύπη lypē καὶ kai μάστιξ mastix καὶ kai βάσανος basanos καὶ kai πληγὴ plēgē οὐχ ouch ἅψεται hapsetai αὐτῶν. autōn.

7

Then I blessed the Lord of glory, the eternal King, because he had prepared such things for righteous people, and had created such things, and had said that they should be given to them.

Then blessed I the God of Glory, the Eternal King, who hath prepared such things for the righteous, and hath created them and promised to give to them.

Τότε Tote εὐλόγησα eulogēsa τὸν ton κύριον kyrion τῆς tēs δόξης doxēs τὸν ton βασιλέα basilea τοῦ tou αἰῶνος, aiōnos, ὅτι hoti ἡτοίμασεν hētoimasen τὰ ta τοιαῦτα toiauta ἀνθρώποις anthrōpois δικαίοις, dikaiois, καὶ kai τὰ ta τοιαῦτα toiauta ἔκτισεν ektisen καὶ kai εἶπεν eipen αὐτοῖς autois δοθῆναι. dothēnai.

Chapter 26

1 Enoch 26 — The blessed center of the earth and the holy mountain

1

And from there I went to the middle of the earth, and I saw a blessed place, with trees having shoots that remained and flourished.

And I went from thence to the middle of the earth, and I saw a blessed place ⌈in which there were trees⌉ with branches abiding and blooming [of a dismembered tree]. 2. And there I saw a holy mountain, ⌈⌈and⌉⌉ underneath the mountain to the east there was a stream and it flowed towards the south. 3. And I saw towards the east another mountain higher than this, and between them a deep and narrow ravine: in it also ran a stream ⌈underneath⌉ the mountain. 4. And to the west thereof there was another mountain, lower than the former and of small elevation, and a ravine ⌈deep and dry⌉ between them: and another deep and dry ravine was at the extremities of the three ⌈mountains⌉. 5. And all the ravines were deep ⌈⌈and narrow⌉⌉, (being formed) of hard rock, and trees were not planted upon them. 6. And I marvelled ⌈⌈at the rocks, and I marvelled⌉⌉ at the ravine, yea, I marveled very much.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖθεν ekeithen ἀπῆλθον apēlthon εἰς eis μέσον meson τῆς tēs γῆς, gēs, καὶ kai εἶδον eidon τόπον topon εὐλογημένον, eulogēmenon, δένδρα dendra ἔχοντα echonta παραφυάδας paraphyadas μενούσας menousas καὶ kai θαλλούσας. thallousas.

2

And there I saw a holy mountain, and beneath the mountain water from the east, and its course flowed toward the south.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖ ekei εἶδον eidon ὄρος oros ἅγιον, hagion, καὶ kai ὑποκάτω hypokatō τοῦ tou ὄρους orous ὕδωρ hydōr ἀπ' ap' ἀνατολῶν, anatolōn, καὶ kai ἔρρει errei τὴν tēn ῥύσιν rhysin πρὸς pros νότον. noton.

3

And toward the east I saw another mountain like it, and between them a deep, narrow ravine.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon πρὸς pros ἀνατολὰς anatolas ἄλλο allo ὄρος oros ὅμοιον, homoion, καὶ kai ἀνὰ ana μέσον meson αὐτῶν autōn φάραγγα pharanga βαθεῖαν, batheian, οὐ ou πλατεῖαν. plateian.

4

And from there water flowed toward the mountain to the west of it, and lower than it; and between them was a deep and dry ravine.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖθεν ekeithen ὕδωρ hydōr ἔρρει errei ἐπὶ epi τὸ to ὄρος oros τὸ to δυτικὸν dytikon αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai ταπεινότερον tapeinoteron αὐτοῦ· autou; καὶ kai ἐν en αὐτοῖς autois φάραγξ pharanx ἀνὰ ana μέσον meson αὐτῶν autōn βαθεῖα batheia καὶ kai ξηρά. xēra.

5

And another ravine ran between the three mountains, and there were deep, dry ravines between all three; and all the deep ravines were of hard stone.

Καὶ Kai ἄλλη allē φάραγξ pharanx ἀνὰ ana μέσον meson τῶν tōn τριῶν triōn ὀρέων, oreōn, καὶ kai φάραγγες pharanges βαθεῖαι batheiai καὶ kai ξηραὶ xērai ἐκ ek τῶν tōn τριῶν· triōn; καὶ kai πᾶσαι pasai φάραγγες pharanges βαθεῖαι batheiai ἐκ ek λίθων lithōn στερεῶν. stereōn.

6

And trees were planted upon them. And I marveled greatly at the mountains and at the ravine.

Καὶ Kai δένδρα dendra ἐπ' ep' αὐτοῖς autois πεφυτευμένα. pephyteumena. Καὶ Kai ἐθαύμαζον ethaumazon ἐπὶ epi τοῖς tois ὄρεσιν oresin καὶ kai ἐπὶ epi τῇ tē φάραγγι pharangi λίαν. lian.

1 Enoch 27 — The accursed valley and the gathering place of the condemned

1

Then I said: Why is this land — which is blessed and filled with trees — and this ravine in the midst of it accursed?

Then said I: ‘For what object is this blessed land, which is entirely filled with trees, and this accursed valley ⌈⌈between⌉⌉?’ 2. ⌈⌈Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered and said: ‘This⌉⌉ accursed valley is for those who are accursed for ever: Here shall all ⌈the accursed⌉ be gathered together who utter with their lips against the Lord unseemly words and of His glory speak hard things. {| class="wikitable" |- ! Ethiopic !! Greek |- | Here shall they be gathered together, and here shall be their place of judgement. 3. In the last days there shall be upon them the spectacle of righteous judgement in the presence of the righteous for ever: here shall the merciful bless the Lord of glory, the Eternal King. || Here shall they be gathered together, and here shall be the place of their habitation. 3. In the last times, in the days of the true judgement in the presence of the righteous for ever: here shall the godly bless the Lord of glory, the Eternal King. |}

2

Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered me and said: This accursed ravine is for those who are accursed forever; here shall be gathered together all the accursed, those who shall speak with their mouth against the Lord unfit words, and shall utter hard things against his glory; here shall they be gathered together, and here shall be their habitation.

Τότε Tote ἀπεκρίθη apekrithē μοι moi Οὐριήλ, Ouriēl, ὁ ho εἷς heis τῶν tōn ἁγίων hagiōn ἀγγέλων angelōn ὃς hos μετ' met' ἐμοῦ emou ἦν, ēn, καὶ kai εἶπεν· eipen; Αὕτη Hautē ἡ hē φάραγξ pharanx ἡ hē κατηραμένη katēramenē τῶν tōn κατηραμένων katēramenōn μέχρι mechri αἰῶνος· aiōnos; ὧδε hōde συναχθήσονται synachthēsontai πάντες pantes οἱ hoi κατηραμένοι, katēramenoi, οἵτινες hoitines λαλήσουσιν lalēsousin τῷ tō στόματι stomati αὐτῶν autōn κατὰ kata κυρίου kyriou λόγον logon ἀπρεπῆ aprepē καὶ kai περὶ peri τῆς tēs δόξης doxēs αὐτοῦ autou σκληρὰ sklēra λαλήσουσιν· lalēsousin; ὧδε hōde συναχθήσονται synachthēsontai καὶ kai ὧδε hōde ἔσται estai τὸ to οἰκητήριον oikētērion αὐτῶν. autōn.

3

And in the last days there shall be upon them the spectacle of righteous judgment before the righteous, throughout all the ages; here shall the merciful bless the Lord of glory, the eternal King.

Καὶ Kai ἐν en ταῖς tais ἐσχάταις eschatais ἡμέραις hēmerais ἔσται estai ἐπ' ep' αὐτῶν autōn τὸ to θέαμα theama τῆς tēs κρίσεως kriseōs τῆς tēs δικαίας dikaias ἐνώπιον enōpion τῶν tōn δικαίων dikaiōn εἰς eis ἅπαντα hapanta τὸν ton αἰῶνα· aiōna; ὧδε hōde εὐλογήσουσιν eulogēsousin οἱ hoi ἐλεήμονες eleēmones τὸν ton κύριον kyrion τῆς tēs δόξης, doxēs, τὸν ton βασιλέα basilea τοῦ tou αἰῶνος. aiōnos.

4

And in the days of their judgment they shall bless him for the mercy which he has apportioned to them.

In the days of judgement over the former, they shall bless Him for the mercy in accordance with which He has assigned them (their lot).’ 5. Then I blessed the Lord of Glory and set forth His ⌈glory⌉ and lauded Him gloriously.

Καὶ Kai ἐν en ταῖς tais ἡμέραις hēmerais τῆς tēs κρίσεως kriseōs αὐτῶν autōn εὐλογήσουσιν eulogēsousin αὐτὸν auton ἐπὶ epi τῷ tō ἐλέει, eleei, ὃ ho ἐμέρισεν emerisen αὐτοῖς. autois.

5

Then I blessed the Lord of glory, and made known his glory, and sang a hymn of his majesty.

Τότε Tote εὐλόγησα eulogēsa τὸν ton κύριον kyrion τῆς tēs δόξης doxēs καὶ kai τὴν tēn δόξαν doxan αὐτοῦ autou ἐδήλωσα edēlōsa καὶ kai ὕμνησα hymnēsa μεγαλωσύνῃ. megalōsynē.

1 Enoch 28 — The eastern wilderness with its watered trees

1

And from there I went to the middle of Mandobara, and I saw a wilderness, solitary; but it was full of trees and seeds.

And thence I went ⌈⌈towards the east⌉⌉, into the midst ⌈⌈of the mountain range⌉⌉ of the desert, and I saw a wilderness and it was solitary, full of trees and plants. 2. ⌈⌈And⌉⌉ water gushed forth from above. 3. Rushing like a copious watercourse [which flowed] towards the north-west it caused clouds and dew to ascend on every side.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖθεν ekeithen ἀπῆλθον apēlthon εἰς eis τὸ to μέσον meson τοῦ tou Μανδοβάρα, Mandobara, καὶ kai εἶδον eidon ἔρημον erēmon καὶ kai μόνον· monon; ἦν ēn δὲ de μεστὸς mestos δένδρων dendrōn καὶ kai ἐκ ek τῶν tōn σπερμάτων. spermatōn.

And water ran over them from above.

And it appeared to be full of water; and as an aqueduct flowed over the place from the north, it brought water and dew.

1 Enoch 29 — The frankincense and myrrh trees of the eastern paradise

1

And from there I went to another place in the wilderness, and I went away further to the east of that mountain.

And thence I went to another place in the desert, and approached to the east of this mountain range. 2. And ⌈⌈there⌉⌉ I saw aromatic trees exhaling the fragrance of frankincense and myrrh, and the trees also were similar to the almond tree.

Καὶ Kai ἐκεῖθεν ekeithen ἀπῆλθον apēlthon εἰς eis ἄλλον allon τόπον topon ἐν en τῇ tē ἐρήμῳ, erēmō, καὶ kai ἐχωρίσθην echōristhēn ἀνατολικώτερον anatolikōteron τοῦ tou ὄρους orous τούτου. toutou.

And there I saw trees of judgment exhaling fragrance, and there above all the trees of aromatic frankincense and of myrrh, and these trees were not alike.

1 Enoch 30 — The fragrant cinnamon and ever-flowing waters of the east

1

And beyond them, high above and not far to their east, I saw another place — valleys of water that did not fail.

And beyond these, I went afar to the east, and I saw another place, a valley (full) of water. 2. And therein there was a tree, the colour (?) of fragrant trees such as the mastic. 3. And on the sides of those valleys I saw fragrant cinnamon. And beyond these I proceeded to the east.

Καὶ Kai ἐπάνω epanō αὐτῶν autōn ὑπεράνω, hyperanō, ἀπὸ apo πρὸς pros ἀνατολὰς anatolas αὐτῶν autōn οὐ ou μακράν, makran, εἶδον eidon ἄλλον allon τόπον, topon, φάραγγας pharangas ὕδατος hydatos ὥσπερ hōsper ἐκλείπον. ekleipon.

2

And I saw a beautiful tree, with a fragrance like that of mastic-laurel.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon δένδρον dendron καλόν, kalon, καὶ kai τὴν tēn ὀσμὴν osmēn τοῦ tou μαστιχοδαφνου mastichodaphnou ὁμοίαν. homoian.

And on the lips of these valleys I saw the fragrant cinnamon; and beyond these valleys I journeyed toward the east.

1 Enoch 31 — The mountains of galbanum, aloes, and the trees of bruised fragrance

1

And I saw another mountain on which were trees, and water flowed out of it, and there came forth like a nectar called sarara, and galbanum.

And I saw other mountains, and amongst them were ⌈groves of⌉ trees, and there flowed forth from them nectar, which is named sarara and galbanum. 2. And beyond these mountains I saw another mountain ⌈to the east of the ends of the earth⌉, ⌈⌈whereon were aloe-trees⌉⌉, and all the trees were full of stacte, being like almond-trees. 3. And when one burnt it, it smelt sweeter than any fragrant odour.

Καὶ Kai εἶδον eidon ἄλλο allo ὄρος oros ἐν en ᾧ hō δένδρα, dendra, καὶ kai ἐξέρρει exerrei ὕδωρ hydōr ἐξ ex αὐτοῦ, autou, καὶ kai ἐξήρχετο exērcheto ὥσπερ hōsper νέκταρ nektar καλούμενον kaloumenon σαραρά sarara καὶ kai γαλβανῆ. galbanē.

2

And above this mountain I saw another mountain, and on it were aloe trees, and the trees were full of a substance like the harder stacte.

Καὶ Kai ἐπάνω epanō τούτου toutou τοῦ tou ὄρους orous εἶδον eidon ἄλλο allo ὄρος, oros, καὶ kai ἐν en αὐτῷ autō δένδρα dendra ἀλόης aloēs ἦν, ēn, καὶ kai τὰ ta δένδρα dendra πεπληρωμένα peplērōmena ὁμοία homoia στακτῇ staktē τῇ tē σκληροτέρᾳ. sklēroterā.

3

And when anyone bruises these trees, that fragrance is exhaled more sweetly than any other.

1 Enoch 32 — The Garden of Righteousness and the tree of wisdom

And after these aromatic places, toward the north I beheld the seven mountains, filled with pure nard and fragrant trees and cinnamon and pepper.

And from there I journeyed to the summits of all these mountains, far toward the east of the earth, and I passed over the Erythraean Sea, and went on far beyond it, and I passed over by Zotiel.

And thence I went over the summits of ⌈all⌉ these mountains, far towards the east ⌈of the earth⌉, and passed above the Erythraean sea and went far from it, and passed over ⌈⌈the angel⌉⌉ Zotîêl. {| class="wikitable" |- !

And that tree was like the carob, and its fruit was like the cluster of the vine, exceedingly beautiful; and the fragrance of the tree ran out from afar.

⌈That tree is in height like the fir, and its leaves are⌉ like (those of) the Carob tree: and its fruit is like the clusters of the vine, very beautiful: and the fragrance of the tree penetrates afar. 5. Then I said: ‘⌈How⌉ beautiful is the tree, and how attractive is its look!’ 6. Then Raphael the holy angel, who was with me, answered me ⌈⌈and said⌉⌉: ‘This is the tree of wisdom, of which thy father old (in years) and thy aged mother, who were before thee, have eaten, and they learnt wisdom and their eyes were opened, and they knew that they were naked and they were driven out of the garden.’

And Raphael, the holy angel who was with me, answered and said: This is the tree of wisdom, from which your ancient father and your ancient mother — those who came before you — ate, and learned wisdom, and their eyes were opened, and they knew that they were naked, and they were driven out of the garden.

1 Enoch 33 — The eastern ends of the earth and the eastern gates of heaven

1

And from there I went to the ends of the earth, and I saw there great beasts, each differing from the other; and birds also differing from one another in appearance, in color, and in voice.

And from thence I went to the ends of the earth and saw there great beasts, and each differed from the other; and (I saw) birds also differing in appearance and beauty and voice, the one differing from the other. 2. And to the east of those beasts I saw the ends of the earth whereon the heaven rests, and the portals of the heaven open. 3. And I saw how the stars of heaven come forth, and I counted the portals out of which they proceed, and wrote down all their outlets, of each individual star by itself, according to their number and their names, their courses and their positions, and their times and their months, as Uriel the holy angel who was with me showed me. 4. He showed all things to me and wrote them down for me: also their names he wrote for me, and their laws and their companies.

And toward the east of those beasts I saw the ends of the earth, where the heavens come to rest; and the gates of heaven stood open.

And I saw how the stars of heaven came out from them, and I numbered them. Uriel, the holy angel who was with me, showed me all the stations of the stars and all their names, their seasons, their hours, their paths, and their courses.

1 Enoch 34 — The northern gates of heaven and the winds of dew, rain, and storm

1

And from there I went toward the northern ends of the earth, and there I saw a great and glorious work at all the ends of the whole earth.

And from thence I went towards the north to the ends of the earth, and there I saw a great and glorious device at the ends of the whole earth. 2. And here I saw three portals of heaven open in the heaven: through each of them proceed north winds: when they blow there is cold, hail, frost, snow, dew, and rain. 3. And out of one portal they blow for good: but when they blow through the other two portals, †it is with violence and affliction on the earth, and they blow with violence.†

And from there I went toward the western ends of the earth, and there I saw three gates of heaven open, just as I had seen toward the east — gates and outlets equal in number.

1 Enoch 36 — The southern gates and the closing doxology of the Book of the Watchers

1

And from there I went toward the southern ends of the earth, and there I saw three gates of heaven open from the south; and from them go forth dew, and rain, and wind.

And from thence I went to the south to the ends of the earth, and saw there three open portals of the heaven: and thence there come dew, rain, †and wind†. 2. And from thence I went to the east to the ends of the heaven, and saw here the three eastern portals of heaven open and small portals above them. 3. Through each of these small portals pass the stars of heaven and run their course to the west on the path which is shown to them. 4. And as often as I saw I blessed always the Lord of Glory, and I continued to bless the Lord of Glory who has wrought great and glorious wonders, to show the greatness of His work to the angels and to spirits and to men, that they might praise His work and all His creation: that they might see the work of His might and praise the great work of His hands and bless Him for ever.

And from there I went toward the eastern ends of all the heavens, and there I saw the ends of heaven open toward the east, and small openings above it from which the stars of heaven come forth and travel toward the west along the path that has been shown to them.

And when I saw these things, I blessed — and always shall bless — the Lord of glory, who has wrought great and glorious wonders, to show forth the greatness of his work to his host of angels and to spirits and to humankind, that they might bless his work, and that all his work might see the work of his power and bless him for the greatness of the work of his hands and bless him forever and ever.

1 Enoch 72 — The sun's annual circuit through the gates of heaven

1

The book of the courses of the luminaries of heaven, each of them as they are, according to their classes, their times, their names, their origins, and their months, which Uriel, the holy angel who was with me, who is their leader, showed me; he showed me their whole record, how it stands for all the years of the world and forever, until the new creation is made which abides forever.

The second vision which he saw, the vision of wisdom—which Enoch the son of Jared, the son of Mahalalel, the son of Cainan, the son of Enos, the son of Seth, the son of Adam, saw. 2. And this is the beginning of the words of wisdom which I lifted up my voice to speak and say to those which dwell on earth: Hear, ye men of old time, and see, ye that come after, the words of the Holy One which I will speak before the Lord of Spirits. 3. It were better to declare (them only) to the men of old time, but even from those that come after we will not withhold the beginning of wisdom. 4. Till the present day such wisdom has never been given by the Lord of Spirits as I have received according to my insight, according to the good pleasure of the Lord of Spirits by whom the lot of eternal life has been given to me. 5. Now three Parables were imparted to me, and I lifted up my voice and recounted them to those that dwell on the earth.

And this is the first law of the luminaries: the light of the sun has its rising in the eastern gates of heaven, and its setting in the western gates of heaven.

And I saw six gates through which the sun comes forth, and six gates through which the sun sets; and the moon also rises and sets in those gates, together with the leaders of the stars and those whom they lead: six in the east and six in the west, all of them ranged one after another in their order; and many side-windows are alongside them on the right and on the left of those gates.

And in that fourth gate from which the sun comes forth in the first month there are twelve windows opened, from which a flame issues whenever they are opened in their seasons.

When the sun rises in heaven, it comes forth through that fourth gate for thirty days, and sets, according to its law, in the fourth gate of the western heaven.

And in those days the day grows longer than the night, and the day continues to grow longer than the night until the sun's rising reaches the fourth gate. The day approaches twice the night, and the day amounts to twelve parts and the night to ten parts.

And the sun comes forth from that fourth gate and sets in the fourth gate, and it returns to the fifth gate in the east for thirty days, and it comes forth from it and sets in the fifth gate.

And when the sun comes forth from the fifth gate for thirty days, the day grows longer, and amounts to thirteen parts, and the night to nine parts.

And from then the day adds to the day, and the night adds to the night; and they complete their count in their seasons — three hundred and sixty-four days.

Such is the measure of the turning of day and night for the sun; and such is the lesser turning of the sun whose light grows and whose light is diminished.

37

And this is the great sun whose light is sevenfold the moon's; in the great reckoning, its light measured sevenfold against the moon's light, and the moon's light is diminished. Sevenfold against the sun's light is reckoned, and the sun's light becomes full; and sevenfold against the sun's light her light is reckoned.

Chapter 73

1 Enoch 73 — The moon's nature and her monthly waxing

1

And after this law I saw another law for the lesser luminary, whose name is the moon.

The First Parable. When the congregation of the righteous shall appear, And sinners shall be judged for their sins, And shall be driven from the face of the earth:

ወእምድኅረዝ፡ wa-ʾəmdəḫrazə ሕግ፡ ḥəg ርእኩ፡ rəʾku ሕገ፡ ḥəga ካልዕተ፡ kāləʿta ለብርሃን፡ la-bərhān ዘንዑስ፡ zanəʿus ዘስሙ፡ zasəmu ወርኅ፡ warḫ

2

And he set forth for it its whole course according to its laws, and the reckoning of its light for all its days.

And when the Righteous One shall appear before the eyes of the righteous, Whose elect works hang upon the Lord of Spirits, And light shall appear to the righteous and the elect who dwell on the earth, Where then will be the dwelling of the sinners, And where the resting-place of those who have denied the Lord of Spirits? It had been good for them if they had not been born.

ወሰፍሐ፡ wa-safḥa ሎቱ፡ lotu ኵሎ፡ kwəlo ሑረቶ፡ ḥurato በበ፡ baba ሕገጊሁ፡ ḥəgagihu ወብርሃኖ፡ wa-bərhāno ኆለቆ፡ ḫolaqo ለመዋዕሊሁ፡ la-mawāʿəlihu ኵሉ፡ kwəlu

3

And her light is the moon's light, which is sevenfold less than the light of the sun; and in the great reckoning the light of the sun is measured against the full light of the moon.

When the secrets of the righteous shall be revealed and the sinners judged, And the godless driven from the presence of the righteous and elect,

ወብርሃኑ፡ wa-bərhānu ሰብዐ፡ sabʿa ምስለ፡ məsla ብርሃና፡ bərhānā ለፀሐይ፡ la-ḍaḥay ይከውን፡ yəkawwən ብርሃና፡ bərhānā ለወርኅ፡ la-warḫ ወበዐቢይ፡ wa-ba-ʿabəy ኆለቅ፡ ḫolaq ይከውን፡ yəkawwən ብርሃና፡ bərhānā ለፀሐይ፡ la-ḍaḥay ይትዌቅሕ፡ yətwaḳḳəḥ ምልዕተ፡ məlʿta ብርሃና፡ bərhānā ለወርኅ፡ la-warḫ

4

And in her first phase she rises in the east on the fourteenth day; and when she ascends to her fullness, in two weeks of days her light is full.

From that time those that possess the earth shall no longer be powerful and exalted: And they shall not be able to behold the face of the holy, For the Lord of Spirits has caused His light to appear On the face of the holy, righteous, and elect.

וקדמי u-qadmē קומה qōmaha במדנחא bě-madnāḥāʾ יפק yippōq ביום bě-yōm ארבעת ʾarbaʿat עשר ʿaśar וכד wě-kad יסלק yissalleq לסיהרא lě-sahrāʾ יהוה yěhěwēh לתרין li-trēn שבעין šābūʿīn יומין yōmīn מלי malē נהורהא něhōrahā

5

And her light reaches her by one seventh part out of the light of the sun.

Then shall the kings and the mighty perish And be given into the hands of the righteous and holy.

ወትበጽሕ፡ wa-təbaṣṣəḥ ብርሃና፡ bərhānā ላዕሌሃ፡ lāʿlēhā ለስብዕት፡ la-səbʿət ክፍል፡ kəfl አሐደ፡ ʾaḥada እምነ፡ ʾəmənna ብርሃኑ፡ bərhānu ለፀሐይ፡ la-ḍaḥay

6

And on her first day her light is one seventh together with one fourteenth part; and her light returns on her first day — her light is one seventh together with one fourteenth.

And thenceforward none shall seek for themselves mercy from the Lord of Spirits For their life is at an end.

And her light enters in by seven parts in full, and her light reaches her horn in the east, and she rises and shines.

1 Enoch 74 — The moon's irregular cycle and the 354-day lunar year

1

And again he showed me another course of the moon, and the laws of their courses — all the laws month by month.

[And it †shall come to pass in those days that elect and holy children †will descend from the high heaven, and their seed† will become one with the children of men. 2. And in those days Enoch received books of zeal and wrath, and books of disquiet and expulsion.] And mercy shall not be accorded to them, saith the Lord of Spirits.

ወካዕበ፡ wa-kāʿba ሑረታ፡ ḥuratā ካልዕተ፡ kāləʿta አርአየኒ፡ ʾarʾayanī ለወርኅ፡ la-warḫ ወሕገገ፡ wa-ḥəgaga ሑረቶሙ፡ ḥuratomu ኵሎ፡ kwəlo ሕገገ፡ ḥəgaga ለበበ፡ laba-warḫ ወርኅ፡

2

And Uriel, the holy angel who was with me, showed me all their laws; and I wrote down their names according to their stations, as they are.

ወኵሉ፡ wa-kwəlu ሕገጊሆሙ፡ ḥəgagihomu አርአየኒ፡ ʾarʾayanī ኦሪኤል፡ ʾUrʾēl መልአክ፡ malʾak ቅዱስ፡ qəddus ዘሀሎ፡ zahallo ምስሌየ፡ məslēya ወከመ፡ wa-kama ይከውን፡ yəkawwən ለቀዋምቶሙ፡ la-qawāmtomu ስማቲሆሙ፡ səmātihomu ጸሐፍኩ፡ ṣaḥafku

3

And he wrote down for me their stations, month by month, and the increase of their light, until it is completed in fourteen days.

And in those days a whirlwind carried me off from the earth, And set me down at the end of the heavens.

ወጸሐፈ፡ wa-ṣaḥafa ሊተ፡ lita መንበሮሙ፡ manbaromu ዘበበ፡ zababa ወርኆሙ፡ warḫomu ወዘበበ፡ wa-zababa ብርሃኖሙ፡ bərhānomu እስከ፡ ʾəska ይትፌጸም፡ yətfēṣam በበ፡ baba ዐሥር፡ ʿaśr ወአርባዕቱ፡ wa-ʾarbāʿtu ዕለታት፡ ʿəlatāt

4

In the seven first stations of her light her light becomes full, according to seven parts.

And there I saw another vision, the dwelling-places of the holy, And the resting-places of the righteous.

በስብዐቱ፡ ba-səbʿatu ቀዳምያን፡ qadāməyān መንበራት፡ manbarāt ለብርሃና፡ la-bərhānā ምሉአ፡ məluʾa ብርሃና፡ bərhānā ይከውን፡ yəkawwən በበ፡ baba ስብዕ፡ səbʿ ምክፋላት፡ məkəfālāt

5

And the seven stations of her light, by seven parts, return again in the western places.

Here mine eyes saw their dwellings with His righteous angels, And their resting-places with the holy. And they petitioned and interceded and prayed for the children of men, And righteousness flowed before them as water, And mercy like dew upon the earth: Thus it is amongst them for ever and ever. 6a. And in that place mine eyes saw the Elect One of righteousness and of faith, 7a. And I saw his dwelling-place under the wings of the Lord of Spirits. 6b. And righteousness shall prevail in his days, And the righteous and elect shall be without number before Him for ever and ever. 7b. And all the righteous and elect before Him shall be †strong† as fiery lights, And their mouth shall be full of blessing, And their lips extol the name of the Lord of Spirits, And righteousness before Him shall never fail, [And uprightness shall never fail before Him.]

And the stations are distinguished according to all their laws, month by month and year by year.

And he brings and returns to the sun its first station through the gate which is separated by eight days.

8

And there are the gates from which the sun comes forth; the sun travels through them for thirty days, together with the leaders, each in its time.

There I wished to dwell, And my spirit longed for that dwelling-place: And there heretofore hath been my portion, For so has it been established concerning me before the Lord of Spirits.

9

And the gates through which the moon comes forth — there are six gates; they are the moon's course, and from their courses she again returns.

In those days I praised and extolled the name of the Lord of Spirits with blessings and praises, because He hath destined me for blessing and glory according to the good pleasure of the Lord of Spirits. 10. For a long time my eyes regarded that place, and I blessed Him and praised Him, saying: ‘Blessed is He, and may He be blessed from the beginning and for evermore. 11. And before Him there is no ceasing. He knows before the world was created what is for ever and what will be from generation unto generation. 12. Those who sleep not bless Thee: they stand before Thy glory and bless, praise, and extol, saying: “Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord of Spirits: He filleth the earth with spirits.”’ 13. And here my eyes saw all those who sleep not: they stand before Him and bless and say: ‘Blessed be Thou, and blessed be the name of the Lord for ever and ever.’ 14. And my face was changed; for I could no longer behold.

And by the fifth portion of days, the solar year is completed in three hundred and sixty-four days.

And the lunar year falls short of the solar year by ten days, and it amounts to three hundred and fifty-four days.

12

And the sun and the stars return to their former stations in the midst of all the years; and there are left over, in their season, four days which are not counted in the reckoning of the year.

1 Enoch 75 — The four season-leaders and the epact-days that humans err in not counting

1

And the leaders of the heads of the days, whose rule is over the world together with the leaders over the seven stations of the sun — these their leaders encompass and supervise them.

And after that I saw thousands of thousands and ten thousand times ten thousand, I saw a multitude beyond number and reckoning, who stood before the Lord of Spirits. 2. And on the four sides of the Lord of Spirits I saw four presences, different from those that sleep not, and I learnt their names: for the angel that went with me made known to me their names, and showed me all the hidden things.

ወአዕራግ፡ wa-ʾaʿrāg ርእሰ፡ rəʾsa ዕለታት፡ ʿəlatāt መርሖሙ፡ marḥomu ዘበዐርብ፡ zaba-ʿarb መንግሥቶሙ፡ mangəśtomu ላዕለ፡ lāʿla ዓለም፡ ʿālam ላዕለ፡ lāʿla ስብዓቱ፡ səbʿātu መንበራት፡ manbarāt ለፀሐይ፡ la-ḍaḥay መርሖሙ፡ marḥomu ይትኬለልዎሙ፡ yətkēlaləwwomu ወያስተሣዕልዎሙ፡ wa-yāstaśāʿəlwommu

2

And those four leaders of the east are surrounded by their leaders in their times; and Uriel, the holy angel who is their leader, said to me: their cause is the four days that are added, that are not counted in the reckoning of the year.

ወእልክቱ፡ wa-ʾəlləktu አርባዕቱ፡ ʾarbāʿtu ዘዐሥርቱ፡ zaʿaśərtu ምሥራቅ፡ məśrāq ይትኬለሉ፡ yətkēlalu መርሖሙ፡ marḥomu በበ፡ baba ጊዜሆሙ፡ gizēhomu ወይቤለኒ፡ wa-yəbēlanī ዑርኤል፡ ʿUrʾēl መልአክ፡ malʾak ዘውእቱ፡ zawəʾətu መርሖሙ፡ marḥomu ምክንያቶሙ፡ məkənyātomu አርባዕተ፡ ʾarbāʿta ዕለታት፡ ʿəlatāt ዘይትዌሰክ፡ zayətwēsak ኢተሐስቡ፡ ʾitaḥasabu በውስተ፡ ba-wəsta ኆለቅ፡ ḫolaq ለዓመት፡ la-ʿāmat

3

And humans err in these — they swiftly go astray concerning them — for those luminaries truly serve the seasons of the world in the stations of the world: one in the first gate, one in the third, one in the fourth, and one in the sixth.

And I heard the voices of those four presences as they uttered praises before the Lord of glory. 4. The first voice blesses the Lord of Spirits for ever and ever. 5. And the second voice I heard blessing the Elect One and the elect ones who hang upon the Lord of Spirits. 6. And the third voice I heard pray and intercede for those who dwell on the earth and supplicate in the name of the Lord of Spirits. 7. And I heard the fourth voice fending off the Satans and forbidding them to come before the Lord of Spirits to accuse them who dwell on the earth. 8. After that I asked the angel of peace who went with me, who showed me everything that is hidden: ‘Who are these four presences which I have seen and whose words I have heard and written down?’ 9. And he said to me: ‘This first is Michael, the merciful and long-suffering: and the second, who is set over all the diseases and all the wounds of the children of men, is Raphael: and the third, who is set over all the powers, is Gabriel: and the fourth, who is set over the repentance unto hope of those who inherit eternal life, is named Phanuel.’ 10. And these are the four angels of the Lord of Spirits and the four voices I heard in those days.

5

For the causes of the world are performed for it according to the laws of the sun and the moon and the stars, and of all the host of the world which he created — that by their conjoined order all the stations of the world might be ordered together.

And there are twelve great windows of the sun and the moon, from which their light comes forth upon their stations seven times — those that encompass their stations — and the windows receive them again in their times.

And after the reckoning of the twelve windows of the sun, they return to the east, and through them the sun sets.

1 Enoch 76 — The twelve gates of the four winds at the ends of the earth

1

And at the ends of the earth I saw twelve gates open for all the winds, from which the winds come forth and blow upon the earth.

And after that I saw all the secrets of the heavens, and how the kingdom is divided, and how the actions of men are weighed in the balance. 2. And there I saw the mansions of the elect and the mansions of the holy, and mine eyes saw there all the sinners being driven from thence which deny the name of the Lord of Spirits, and being dragged off: and they could not abide because of the punishment which proceeds from the Lord of Spirits.

ובאפי u-ba-ʾappē ארעא ʾarʿāʾ חזית ḥăzēt עשרה ʿaśrāh ותרין u-tĕrēn תרעין tarʿīn פתיחין pětīḥīn לכל lě-kol רוחיא rūḥayyāʾ דמנהון dī נפקין minhōn רוחיא nāpĕqīn ונשבין rūḥayyāʾ על wě-nāšbīn ארעא ʿal

2

Three of them are in the east of heaven, and three in the west, and three on the right of heaven, and three on the left.

תלתא tělātāʾ אנון ʾinnōn במדנח bě-madnāḥ שמיא šĕmayyāʾ ותלתא ū-tělātāʾ במערב bě-maʿărāb ותלתא ū-tělātāʾ בימינא bě-yāminā דשמיא dī-šĕmayyāʾ ותלתא ū-tělātāʾ בשמאלא bi-śĕmālāʾ

3

And the first among them, on the side of the north, which is raised up — there is upon it a wind of cold and hoarfrost, fatigue, sickness, and sorrow.

And there mine eyes saw the secrets of the lightning and of the thunder, and the secrets of the winds, how they are divided to blow over the earth, and the secrets of the clouds and dew, and there I saw from whence they proceed in that place and from whence they saturate the dusty earth. 4. And there I saw closed chambers out of which the winds are divided, the chamber of the hail and winds, the chamber of the mist, and of the clouds, and the cloud thereof hovers over the earth from the beginning of the world. 5. And I saw the chambers of the sun and moon, whence they proceed and whither they come again, and their glorious return, and how one is superior to the other, and their stately orbit, and how they do not leave their orbit, and they add nothing to their orbit and they take nothing from it, and they keep faith with each other, in accordance with the oath by which they are bound together. 6. And first the sun goes forth and traverses his path according to the commandment of the Lord of Spirits, and mighty is His name for ever and ever. 7. And after that I saw the hidden and the visible path of the moon, and she accomplishes the course of her path in that place by day and by night—the one holding a position opposite to the other before the Lord of Spirits. And they give thanks and praise and rest not; For unto them is their thanksgiving rest.

And from the three gates of the east of heaven: the first, whose side is raised toward the north — from it come forth dew and rain and locusts and fatigue.

8

And from the other gate there comes forth a wind of heat and drought and sickness and deaths.

For the sun changes oft for a blessing or a curse, And the course of the path of the moon is light to the righteous And darkness to the sinners in the name of the Lord, Who made a separation between the light and the darkness, And divided the spirits of men, And strengthened the spirits of the righteous, In the name of His righteousness.

9

And from the three gates on the right of heaven: the first, on the side of the east — from it comes forth a wind of heat.

For no angel hinders and no power is able to hinder; for He appoints a judge for them all and He judges them all before Him.

And from the second gate, on its side, there come forth dew and rain and locusts and fatigue.

And from the third gate, on the side of the west, there come forth dew and rain and locusts and fatigue.

12

And from the west of heaven, three gates: the first, on the side of the north — from it come forth dew and rain and hoarfrost and deaths.

And from the third gate, on the side of the south, there comes forth a wind of silence and cold and fatigue and sorrow. And this is the reckoning of the winds that blow and circle from the four corners of heaven — such is their reckoning.

1 Enoch 77 — The four quarters of the earth, the seven mountains, the seven rivers

1

And the first they call the east, because it is the first; and the second they call the south, because there the hand of every living thing is bowed down.

Wisdom found no place where she might dwell; Then a dwelling-place was assigned her in the heavens.

וקדמיתא u-qadmaytāʾ קרין qārēn לה lāh מדנחא madnāḥāʾ דהיא dī-hīʾ קדמיתא qadmaytāʾ ותניתא u-tinyāytāʾ קרין qārēn לה lāh ימינא yāminā דבה dī-bāh כפיף kāpēp ידא yědāʾ דכל dī-kol חי ḥay

2

And the third they call the west, because there all the lights of heaven are gathered in, and they set there toward the west; and the fourth they call the north, because in it are hidden all the works of the Cherubim and the Seraphim, and there is the dwelling-place of the Most High.

Wisdom went forth to make her dwelling among the children of men, And found no dwelling-place: Wisdom returned to her place, And took her seat among the angels.

ותליתיתא u-tělītāytāʾ קרין qārēn לה lāh מערבא maʿarbāʾ די dī תמן tammān עזלין ʿāzělīn כל kol נהורי něhōrē שמיא šěmayyāʾ ותתבון wě-yātbūn תמן tammān למערב lě-maʿărāb ורביעיתא u-rěbīʿāytāʾ קרין qārēn לה lāh צפונא ṣěpōnāʾ די dī-bāh בה mistattěrīn מסתתרין kol כל ʿōbědē עבדי kěrūbīm כרובים wě-śěrāpīm ושרפים u-bāh ובה miškěnāʾ משכנא dī-ʿillāʾāʾ דעליא

3

And the regions of the earth are three: the first toward the east, and the second toward the south, and the third toward the west.

And unrighteousness went forth from her chambers: Whom she sought not she found, And dwelt with them, As rain in a desert And dew on a thirsty land.

4

And I saw seven great mountains, greater than all the mountains that are upon the earth; from them come forth snow, and the days and the seasons and the years pass by.

5

And I saw seven great rivers, greater than all the rivers — the first of them, the great one called Gihon; and the second, the Tigris; and the third, the Euphrates.

ושבעה u-šibʿāh נהרין nahărīn רברבין rabrěbīn חזית ḥăzēt מן min כל kol נהריא nahărayyāʾ קדמיא qadmāyāʾ מנהון minhōn רבא rabbāʾ דאקרי dī-ʾiqrē גיחון Gēḥōn ותנינא u-tinyānāʾ דקלת Diqlat ותליתיא u-tělītāyāʾ פרת Pěrāt

6

And the rest of them go toward the west — the Harmon, and another, the Nile, and that one called the Gihan; and it flows in the land of Egypt, and it goes on from kingdom to kingdom.

And I saw seven great islands, greater than all that are in the earth: the first in the northern sea, the second in the western sea, and the third in the sea which is called Erythraean.

And the seventh of them, the reckoning of the days has their stations; and one great station upon it is called the dwelling-place of the Cherubim, who abide as chiefs that encompass his stations.

Chapter 78

1 Enoch 78 — The names of the sun and moon, and the lunar month

1

And the names of the sun are these: the first, Oryares; the second, Tomos.

And I saw other lightnings and the stars of heaven, and I saw how He called them all by their names and they hearkened unto Him. 2. And I saw how they are weighed in a righteous balance according to their proportions of light: (I saw) the width of their spaces and the day of their appearing, and how their revolution produces lightning: and (I saw) their revolution according to the number of the angels, and (how) they keep faith with each other. 3. And I asked the angel who went with me who showed me what was hidden: ‘What are these?’ 4. And he said to me: ‘The Lord of Spirits hath showed thee their parabolic meaning (lit. 'their parable'): these are the names of the holy who dwell on the earth and believe in the name of the Lord of Spirits for ever and ever.’

2

And the moon has four names: the first, Asanaya; the second, Abal; the third, Banase; the fourth, Erae.

ወወርኅሰ፡ wa-warḫəsa አርባዕቱ፡ ʾarbāʿtu ስማቲሁ፡ səmātihu ቀዳማይ፡ qadāmāyə አሰናያ፡ ʾAsanāyā ወካልዕ፡ wa-kāləʿ አበል፡ ʾAbal ወሣልስ፡ wa-śāləs በናሴ፡ Banāsē ወራብዕ፡ wa-rābəʿ ኤራዔ፡ ʾĒraʾē

3

These are the two great luminaries; their orb is equal, and their light, great according to its measure, is set in each.

እሉ፡ ʾəllu ክልኤቱ፡ kəlʾētu ብርሃናት፡ bərhānāt ዐበይት፡ ʿabayt ዘክብ፡ zakəb ዘክብ፡ zakəb ብርሃኖሙ፡ bərhānomu ዐቢይ፡ ʿabəy ለበበ፡ laba-gədəfātomu ግድፋቶሙ፡ yəkawwən ይከውን፡

4

And the sun's orb is sevenfold the moon's light when measured against it, until it diminishes against the sun's light by a seventh.

5

By the sun, sevenfold against the sun's light, the moon's light is fixed — the law of her light's lengthening.

6

And on her first day her light becomes a measure — by seven parts, one of the sun's light becomes hers; and her light diminishes from what was of the first day: seven parts of seven.

And her light returns by a measure: in her day, by seven parts of seven, of her first light, it becomes a second full measure.

And there comes a time, a hidden place, a measure: seven parts together with all — for her first light, seven.

And her light returns by seven parts; it returns from her full light to extinction in seven days at a time.

And in the bad days her light diminishes day by day across the fourteen days.

And when the sun's station is written down toward the west, it returns to the station of the sun's light in the east at the appointed time of sixty days.

And the moon's light returns to a full measure in the east, on her first day, by seven by seven measures.

14

And in the third-year reckoning her measure for the sun is sixty days, which is completed by ten parts for the moon, and two days are shortened.

15

And the moon brings the law of its days for thirty days; but it falls short, and the days become hollow and lacking, with no full light.

And fifty-six are their stations of days for the seven-day reckoning of the moon's restoration to her full light, whose reckoning is two hundred and sixty-two days.

And the measure of the days for the seven stations is completed in due measure; in the first days her light goes to its extinction, and in seven days her light is restored to its fullness.

1 Enoch 79 — Uriel's closing summary of the astronomical revelation

1

And now, my son, I have shown you everything; and the reckoning of all the stars of heaven is completed.

Also another phenomenon I saw in regard to the lightnings: how some of the stars arise and become lightnings and cannot part with their new form.

And I have shown you all the laws for every day, and for every law, and for every dominion.

And this is the law of the moon, which brings their reckoning according to her festivals, according to her stations of dominion in the appointed path which is completed month by month.

And the laws of the sun, with its stations and east and west: seven that order the reckoning of all the sun's dominion.

And this east shines long and this west shines short; and the sun's stations return — those of the law which is encompassed in its proper time.

These are the leaders of the days; they are the reckoning of the laws of the luminaries, which Uriel showed me — he who is the leader of all their reckonings.

And at that time Uriel the angel said to me: Behold, Enoch, I have shown you all, and I have disclosed all to you, that you might see this sun and this moon and the leaders of the stars of heaven, and all who order them — their works and their dominions and their times.

And this is the second Parable concerning those who deny the name of the dwelling of the holy ones and the Lord of Spirits.

2

And in the days of the sinners the years shall be shortened, and the seed of grain shall be late in their lands and in their fields; and everything upon the earth shall be afflicted, and the rains of the earth shall be withheld, and the seed of their days shall not come up upon their lands.

And into the heaven they shall not ascend, And on the earth they shall not come: Such shall be the lot of the sinners Who have denied the name of the Lord of Spirits, Who are thus preserved for the day of suffering and tribulation.

3

And every fruit-bearing blossom on the earth shall be withheld; the tree shall withhold its fruit, and the vine shall withhold its fruit; and much seed shall be sown but shall come to nothing.

On that day Mine Elect One shall sit on the throne of glory And shall try their works, And their places of rest shall be innumerable. And their souls shall grow strong within them when they see Mine elect ones, And those who have called upon My glorious name:

4

And the moon shall change her laws and shall not appear in her appointed times.

Then will I cause Mine Elect One to dwell among them. And I will transform the heaven and make it an eternal blessing and light:

And in those days there shall appear in heaven a great drought upon the eastern horizon of heaven, before the station of the stars.

And I will transform the earth and make it a blessing: And I will cause Mine elect ones to dwell upon it: But the sinners and evil-doers shall not set foot thereon.

And many chiefs of the host of the stars shall transgress the order of the command, and shall change their courses and their tasks, and shall not appear in their appointed times — the times prescribed for them.

For I have provided and satisfied with peace My righteous ones And have caused them to dwell before Me: But for the sinners there is judgement impending with Me, So that I shall destroy them from the face of the earth.

1 Enoch 81 — The heavenly tablets and the seven holy ones' charge to Enoch

1

And he said to me: Enoch, look upon the tablets of heaven, and read what is written upon them, and learn everything in detail.

And there I saw One who had a head of days, And His head was white like wool, And with Him was another being whose countenance had the appearance of a man, And his face was full of graciousness, like one of the holy angels.

2

And I looked upon all the tablets of heaven, and read all that was written upon them, and understood all; and I read the book of all the deeds of mankind and of all the children of flesh that shall be upon the earth, unto their generations forever.

And I asked the angel who went with me and showed me all the hidden things, concerning that Son of Man, who he was, and whence he was, (and) why he went with the Head of Days? 3. And he answered and said unto me: This is the Son of Man who hath righteousness, With whom dwelleth righteousness, And who revealeth all the treasures of that which is hidden, Because the Lord of Spirits hath chosen him, And whose lot hath the pre-eminence before the Lord of Spirits in uprightness for ever.

3

And I blessed the Lord, the King of Glory, who has made all the works of the world; and I gave thanks to the Lord because of his long-suffering toward the children of Adam.

4

And I said in that hour: Blessed is the man who dies righteous and good, against whom no record of unrighteousness has been written, and against whom no day of judgment shall be found.

And this Son of Man whom thou hast seen Shall †raise up† the kings and the mighty from their seats, [And the strong from their thrones] And shall loosen the reins of the strong, And break the teeth of the sinners.

5

And those seven holy ones brought me and set me upon the earth, before the gate of my house; and they said to me: Tell all things to your son Methuselah, and show all your children that no flesh is justified before the Lord, for he is the Creator.

[And he shall put down the kings from their thrones and kingdoms] Because they do not extol and praise Him, Nor humbly acknowledge whence the kingdom was bestowed upon them.

For one year I will leave you with your children, until you have gained strength again, that you may teach your children, write down for them, and testify to them concerning everything; and tell your children's children also.

And he shall put down the countenance of the strong, And shall fill them with shame. And darkness shall be their dwelling, And worms shall be their bed, And they shall have no hope of rising from their beds, Because they do not extol the name of the Lord of Spirits.

And in the second year they shall take you from their midst; and your heart shall be strengthened, for the righteous shall be reckoned with the righteous, and the sinners shall be punished for each of their sins.

And these are they who †judge† the stars of heaven, [And raise their hands against the Most High], †And tread upon the earth and dwell upon it†. And all their deeds manifest unrighteousness, And their power rests upon their riches, And their faith is in the gods which they have made with their hands, And they deny the name of the Lord of Spirits,

And whoever desires righteousness in their times shall accomplish for them every good work, without falsehood and without sin.

And they persecute the houses of His congregations, And the faithful who hang upon the name of the Lord of Spirits.

1 Enoch 82 — Enoch's instructions to Methuselah and the names of the season-leaders

1

And now, my son Methuselah, I am telling you all this and writing it for you; I have disclosed all to you, and have given you the book concerning all these things.

And in those days shall have ascended the prayer of the righteous, And the blood of the righteous from the earth before the Lord of Spirits.

2

Keep, my son Methuselah, this book from the hand of your father, and hand it on to the generations of the world.

In those days the holy ones who dwell above in the heavens Shall unite with one voice And supplicate and pray [and praise, And give thanks and bless the name of the Lord of Spirits] On behalf of the blood of the righteous which has been shed, And that the prayer of the righteous may not be in vain before the Lord of Spirits, That judgement may be done unto them, And that they may not have to suffer for ever.

3

I have given wisdom to you and to your children, and to those who shall be your children, that they may give it to their children and to their generations — wisdom which is wrought from the reckoning of the sun and the moon and the stars.

In those days I saw the Head of Days when He seated himself upon the throne of His glory, And the books of the living were opened before Him: And all His host which is in heaven above and His counsellors stood before Him,

4

Blessed are all the righteous, blessed are those who walk in the way of righteousness and have no sin like the sinners in the reckoning of the days during which the sun travels in the heaven through the six gates and through what is before them.

And the hearts of the holy were filled with joy; Because the number of the righteous had been offered, And the prayer of the righteous had been heard, And the blood of the righteous been required before the Lord of Spirits.

5

And they err concerning them — these four days that are added to the solar year — those who do not reckon them with the dominion of the sun and with the dominion of the stars.

וטעין wě-ṭāʿēn בהון běhōn אלין ʾillēn ארבעת ʾarbaʿat יומיא yōmayyāʾ די dī מסתפין mistappīn לשנת lě-šěnat שמשא šimšāʾ די dī לא lāʾ חשבין ḥāšbīn בהון běhōn עם ʿim מלכות malkūt שמשא šimšāʾ ועם wě-ʿim מלכות malkūt כוכביא kōkěbayyāʾ

6

For humans do not count them in the reckoning of the year, and they err concerning them; these are for the well-being of the year. For humans go astray concerning them and do not know them in the reckoning of the year. But the righteous shall heed them, and the book shall reckon them rightly.

Four leaders, who distinguish the four parts of the year, are set in their places; and after them three leaders of the months, and three after them of the days.

And these are the names of their leaders who are over the reckoning of the days: Saman, and Yan, Qelil, and Heliyammamo.

And the paths of their dominion are one for each one — after their dominion come the leaders of the days, one for each.

Three leaders are distinguished after the manner of the seven windows, after the manner of the stations of the sun in each east, of his stations again — for each station in its time; three leaders who come after the leaders, each in their times.

Over the first part of the year is set Melkiel; and these are his leaders for the first part of the year. Melkiel, who is called Tsefada — his dominion and the shadow of his dominion are over the stations of the seven [windows of the] east.

In his days there is light upon the earth, and the days lengthen; and the beasts and the herbs spread out over the earth; and day grows longer than day.

And these are the names of the leaders who are after him: Berbeel, and Zalabeel, and the third, who is added, whose name is Heleyammamo; and the days of their leading are completed.

19

And in the days of his dominion the days lengthen and the night is shortened; and the laws of his dominion bring drought and heat, and the beasts multiply, and the light lengthens, and the night is shortened.
