Chapter 50

1 In those days shall the earth deliver up from her womb, and hell deliver up from hers, that which it has received; and destruction shall restore that which it owes. 2He shall select the righteous and holy from among them; for the day of their salvation has approached. 3And in those days shall the Elect One sit upon his throne, while every secret of intellectual wisdom shall proceed from his mouth, for the Lord of spirits has gifted and glorified him. The Book of Enoch the Prophet 50 4 In those days the mountains shall skip like rams, and the hills shall leap like young sheep71 satiated with milk; and all the righteous shall be like the angels in heaven.72 5Their countenance shall be bright with joy; for in those days shall the Elect One be exalted. The earth shall rejoice; the righteous shall inhabit it, and the elect possess it.73
