Chapter 92

1After this, Enoch began to speak from a book. 2And Enoch said, Concerning the children of righteousness, concerning the elect of the world, and concerning the plant of righteousness and integrity. 3Concerning these things will I speak, and these things will I explain to you, my children: I who am Enoch. In consequence of that which has been shown to me, from my heavenly vision and from the voice of the holy angels211 I have acquired knowledge; and from the tablet of heaven I have acquired understanding. 4Enoch then began to speak from a book, and said, I have been born the seventh in the first week, while judgment and righteousness wait with patience. 5But after me, in the second week, great wickedness shall arise, and fraud shall spring forth. 6 In that week212 the end of the first shall take place, in which a man will be saved. 7But when the first is completed,213 iniquity shall grow up; and during the second week he shall execute the decree214 upon sinners.215 8Afterwards, in the third week, during its completion, a man216 of the plant of righteous judgment shall be selected; and after him the plant217 of righteousness shall come for ever. 9Subsequently, in the fourth week, during its completion, the visions of the holy and the righteous shall be seen, the order of generation after generation shall take place, and a habitation shall be made for them.218 Then in the fifth week, during its completion, the house of glory and of dominion219 shall be erected for ever. 10After that, in the sixth week, all those who are in it shall be darkened, the hearts of all of them shall be forgetful of wisdom, and in it shall a man220 ascend. 11And during its completion he shall burn the house of dominion with fire, and all the race of the elect root shall be dispersed.221 12Afterwards, in the seventh week, a perverse generation shall arise; abundant shall be its deeds, and all its deeds perverse. During its completion, the righteous shall be selected from the everlasting plant of righteousness; and to them shall be given the sevenfold doctrine of his whole creation. 13Afterwards there shall be another week, the eighth222 of righteousness, to which shall be given a sword to execute judgment and justice upon all oppressors. 14Sinners shall be delivered up into the hands of the righteous, who during its completion shall acquire habitations by their righteousness; and the house of the great King shall be established for celebrations for ever. After this, in the ninth week, shall the judgment of righteousness be revealed to the whole world. 15Every work of the ungodly shall disappear from the whole earth; the world shall be marked for destruction; and all men shall be on the watch for the path of integrity. 16And after this, on the seventh day of the tenth week, there shall be an everlasting judgment, which shall be executed upon the Watchers; and a spacious eternal heaven shall spring forth in the midst of the angels. 17The former heaven shall depart and pass away; a new heaven223 shall appear; and all the celestial powers shall shine with sevenfold splendor for ever. Afterwards likewise shall there be many weeks, which shall externally exist in goodness and in righteousness. 18Neither shall sin be named there for ever and for ever.224 19Who is there of all the children of men, capable of hearing the voice of the Holy One without emotion? 20Who is there capable of thinking his thoughts? Who capable of contemplating all the workmanship of heaven? Who of comprehending the deeds of heaven? 21He may behold its animation, but not its spirit. He may be capable of conversing about it, but not of ascending to it. He may see all the boundaries of these things, and meditate upon them; but he can make nothing like them. 22Who of all men is able to understand the breadth and length of the earth? 23By whom have been seen the dimensions of all these things? Is it every man who is capable of comprehending the extent of heaven; what its elevation is, and by what it is supported? 24How many are the numbers of the stars; and where all the luminaries remain at rest?
