CHAPTER 1.
1.The words of the blessing of Enoch, wherewith he blessed the 'elect and righteous', who
will be 2. living in the day of tribulation, when all the wicked and disobedient are to be
removed. And he took up his parable and said, Enoch a righteous man. whose
eyes are opened by Elohim, saw the vision of the Kodesh 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 3. for to come. Concerning
'the 'Elect' I said, and took up my parable concerning them. The Kodesh One will come
forth from His dwelling 4. And the eternal Elohim will tread upon the earth even Mt
Sinai and appear from His camp And appear in the strength of His might from the heaven
of heavens. 5. 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. 6. And the high mountains
shall be shaken and the high hills shall be made low, and shall melt like wax before the
flame. 7. 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. 8. 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 Elohim and they shall be prospered, and they shall be blessed. And He will
help them all and light shall appear unto them. And He will make peace with them. 9.
And behold He comes with ten thousands of His set-apart ones to execute judgement
upon all. And to destroy all the unbelieving. And to convict all flesh of all the works
of their unrighteousness which they have unbelieving committed. And all the hard
things which unbelieving sinners have spoken against Him.CHAPTER 2.
l. Observe everything that takes place in the heaven, how they do not change their orbits,
and the luminaries which are in the heavens, how they all rise and set in its season. 2. and
transgress not against their appointed order. Behold you the earth, and give heed to the
things which take place upon it from the last, how steadfast they are, how none of the
things upon the earth 3. change, but all the works of Elohim appear to you. Behold the
summer and the winter. how the whole earth is filled with water, and clouds and dew and
rain lie upon it. Observe and see how in the winter all the trees seem as though they had
withered and shed all their leaves, 8. except fourteen trees, which do not lose their
foliage but retain the old foliage from two to three years till the new comes.CHAPTER 4.
And again observe ye the days of summer how the sun is above the earth over against it.
And you seek the shade and shelter by reason of the heat of the sun, so 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.CHAPTER 5.
1. 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 lives for
ever has made them so. 2. 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
a Elohim has ordained so is it done. 3. And behold how the sea and the rivers in like
manner accomplish and change not their tasks from His commandments.4. But you have not been steadfast nor done the commandments of YHWH, but you have
turned away and spoken proud and hard words with your impure mouths against His
greatness. Oh, you hard hearted, you shall find no peace. 5. Therefore shall you execrate
your days, and the years of your life shall perish. And the years of your destruction shall
be multiplied in eternal execration, and you shall find no mercy. 6.In those days you shall
make your names an eternal execration unto all the righteous, and by you shall all who
curse, curse. And all sinners and disobedient shall imprecate by you. 7. And for you the
disobedient there shall be a curse. Andall the (Righteous) shall rejoice And there shall be
forgiveness of sins and every mercy and peace and forbearance there shall be salvation
unto them. a goodly light. And for all you sinners there shall be no salvation but on you
all shall abide a curse. But for the 'elect' there shall be light and joy and peace, and they
shall inherit the earth. 8. And there shall be bestowed upon the elect wisdom and they
shall live and never again sin, either through unbelief or through pride. But they who are
wise shall be humble. 9. And they shall not again transgress nor shall they sin all the days
of their life, nor shall they die of 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.CHAPTER 6.
1. And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days were
born 2. unto them beautiful and comely daughters. And the Angels, the children of the
heaven saw and lusted after them, and said one to another; "Come, let us choose us wives
from among the children of men 3. and beget us children." And Semjaza. who was their
leader, said unto them; "I fear you will not 4. indeed agree to this deed, and I alone shall
have to pay the penalty of a great sin." And they all answered him and said; "Let us all
swear an oath, and all bind ourselves by mutual curses5. not to abandon this plan but to
do this thing." Then swear they all together and bound themselves 6. by mutual curses
upon it. And they were all two hundred who descended in the days of Jared on the
summit of Mount Hermon. and they called it Mt Hermon, because they had sworn 7. and
bound themselves by mutual curses upon it. And these are the names of their leaders;
Samlazaz their leader, Arakalba, Rameel, Kokablel. Famlel, Ramlel, Danel, Ezeqeel,
Baraqijal, 8. Aseal, Armaros, Batarel, Ananel, Zaqiel, Samsapeel, Satarel, Turel. Jomjael,
Sariel, These are their chiefs of tens.CHAPTER 8.
1. And all the others together with them took unto themselves wives, and each chose for
himself one and they began to go into them and to defile themselves with them. and they
taught them 'charms' 2.and enchantments, and cutting of roots, and made them
acquainted with plants. 3. And they became pregnant, and they bare great giants, whose
height was three thousand ells: Who consumed 4. all the acquisitions of men. And when
men could no longer sustain them, the giants turned against them and devoured mankind.
And they began to sin against 'birds' and 'beast’ and ‘reptiles' and ‘fish' and to devour one
another's flesh, and drink the blood. Then the earth laid accusation against the lawless
ones.CHAPTER 8.
1. And Azazel 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............. 2......... tinctures. And there arose
much disobedience, and they committed fornication, and they 3. were led astray, and
became corrupt in all their ways. Semjaza taught enchantments, and root cuttings,
Armaros the resolving of enchantments, Baraqijal taught 'astrology'. Kokabel the
constellations. Ezeqeel the knowledge of clouds. Araqiel the signs of the earth. Shamsiel
the signs of the sun. and Sariel the course of the moon. And men perished, and they cried,
and their cry went up to heaven.CHAPTER 9.
1. And then 'Michael' - 'Uriel' - 'Raphael' - and 'Gabriel' looked down from heaven and
saw much blood being 2. shed upon the earth, and all lawlessness being wrought upon
the earth. And they said one to another "The earth made without inhabitant cries the
voice of their crying comes up to the gates of heaven. 3. And now to you, the set-apart
ones of heaven, the souls of men make their suit. saying, "Bring our cause 4. before the
Most High." And they said to the King of the ages; "Master of masters, Elohim of elohim,
King of kings, and Elohim of the ages, Your throne of Your esteem stands unto all
generations of the 5. ages and Your Name Kodesh and great and blessed unto all the
ages." You have made all things, and power over all things You have; and all things are
naked and open in Your sight, and You see all things, 6. and nothing can hide itself from
You. You see what Azazel has done, and has taught all unrighteousness on the earth and
revealed the eternal secrets which were preserved in heaven and 7. men were striving top
learn. And Semjaza, to whom You has 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 9.
women and have defiled themselves, and revealed to them all kinds of sins. And the
women have 10. borne giants, and the whole earth has thereby been filled with blood and
unrighteousness 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 11.wrought on the earth and You know all
things before they come to pass, and You see these things and You do suffer them, and
You do not say to us, what we are to do to them in regard to these!"CHAPTER 10.
1. Then said the Most High, the Kodesh and Great One spake, and sent Uriel to the son of
Lamech, 2. and said to him; "Go to Noah and tell him in My Name 'Hide yourself and
reveal to him the end that is approaching; that the whole earth will be destroyed. and a
deluge is about to come 3. upon the whole earth and will destroy all that is on it. And
now instruct him that he may escape 4. and his seed may be preserved for all generations
of the world." And again YHWH said to Raphael: "Bind Azazel hand and foot and cast
him into the darkness and make an opening 5. in the desert, which is 'Dudael and cast
him therein. 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 6.7. not see light. And on
the day of the great judgement he shall be cast into the fire. 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 8. Watchers have disclosed and have taught their sons. "And the whole earth has been
corrupted 9. through the works that were taught be Azazel, and to him ascribe all sin." And
Gabriel said to YHWH: "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 10. in battle for length of days they shall not have. And
no request that they make of you shall be granted unto their fathers on their behalf: for
they hope to live an eternal life, and ii. that each one of them will live five-hundred
years.' And YHWH said to Michael "Go, bind Semjaza and his associates who have
united themselves with women so as to have defiled themselves 12. with them in all their
uncleanness. 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 13. is forever and ever is consummated. " In those days they shall be led off to the
abyss of fire and to the torment and............. 14. the prison in which they shall be confined
for ever. And whosoever shall be condemned and destroyed from henceforth be bound
together with them to the end of all generations. 15. "And destroy all the 'SPIRITS" of
the reprobates and the children of the Watchers because 16. they have wronged
mankind. 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.. 17. 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. 18. And then
shall the earth be tilled in righteousness, and shall be planted with trees and 19. be full of
blessing. And all the desirable trees shall be planted on it. And they shall plant vines on
it; And the vine which they shall plant thereon shall yield wine in abundance, and as for
all the seed which is sown thereon each measure shall bear a thousand, and each measure
of olives shall yield 20. ten presses of oil. And cleanse the earth from all oppression, and
from all unrighteousness, and from all sin, and from all ubelief: and all the uncleanness
that is wrought upon the earth 21. destroy from off the earth. And all the children of men
shall become righteous. And all Nations 22. shall offer adoration and shall praise Me,
and all shall worship Me. And the earth shall be cleansed from all defilement, and from
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.CHAPTER 11.
And in those days I will open the store chambers of blessing which are in heaven, so as to
send 2. them down upon the earth over the work and labour of the children of men. And
truth and peace shall be associated together throughout all the days of the world and
throughout all the generations of men.CHAPTER 12.
1. Before these things, Enoch was hidden, and no one of the children of men knew where
he was 2. hidden, and where he abode, and what had become of him. And his activities
had to do with the 'Watchers', and his days were with the set-apart ones. 3. And I Enoch
was blessing the Sovereign of Majesty and the King of the ages , and LO! The Watchers
4. Called me - "Enoch the Scribe" - and said to me!; "Enoch, you scribe of righteousness,
go! Declare to the Watchers of heaven who have left the high heaven, the set-apart
eternal place, and have defiled themselves with women, and done as the children of earth
do, and have taken unto themselves wives" 5. "You have wrought great destruction on the
earth; and ey shall have no peace nor forgiveness of sin. 6. and inasmuch as they delight
themselves in their children, 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 you not attain."CHAPTER 13.
1. And Enoch went and said "Azazel! You shall have no peace; a severe sentence has
gone forth 2. against you to put you in bonds; And you shall not have toleration nor
request granted to you, because of the unrighteousness which you have taught, and
because of all the works of disobedience 3.. and unrighteousness and sin which you have
shown to men." Then I went and spoke to them all together, and they were all afraid, and
fear and trembling seized them. And they besought me to draw up a petition for them that
they might find forgiveness, and to read their petition in the presence 5. of the Sovereign
of heaven. For from that time they could not speak with Him nor lift up their 6. eyes to
heaven for shame of their sins for which they had been condemned. Then I wrote their
petition, and the prayer in regard to their 'spirits' and their deeds individually and in
regard to their 7. requests that they should have forgiveness and length. 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 8. asleep. And behold a dream came to me, and
visions fell down upon me, and I saw visions of chastisements, and a voice came bidding
me, to tell it to the sons of heaven, reprimand them. 9. And when I awakened, I came
unto them, and they were all sitting gathered together, weeping in "Abeisjail' 10. which is
between Lebanon and Senser with their faces covered. 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.CHAPTER 14.
1. The book of the words of righteousness, and of the reprimand of the eternal Watchers
in accordance with 2. the command of the Kodesh Great One in that vision I saw in my
sleep what I will now say with a tongue of flesh and with a breath of my mouth which the
Great One has given to men to 3. converse therewith and understand with the heart. As
He has created and given to man the power of understanding the words of wisdom, so has
He created me also and given me the power of reprimanding 4. the Watchers, the
children of heaven. I wrote out your petition, and in my vision it appeared thus: that your
petition will not he granted unto you throughout all the days of eternity, and that judge-
ment 5. has been finally passed upon you: Yea your petition will not be granted to you.
And from henceforth you shall not ascend into heaven unto all eternity, and in bonds of
the earth the decree 6. has gone forth to bind you for all the days of the world. And that
previously you shall have seen the destruction of your beloved sons and you shall have no
pleasure in them, but they shall fall before you by 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 8. written. 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 lightning sped and hastened me, and the winds in 9 the
vision caused me to fly lifted me upwards, and bore me into heaven. And I went in until 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 crystals. Its ceiling was like the path of the stars
and lightnings, and between them were 12. fiery cherubim, and their heaven was clear as
water A flaming fire surrounded the walls, and its 13. portals blazed with fire. And I
entered into that house, and it was hot as fire and cold as ice; 14. There were no delights
of life therein: fear covered me, and trembling got hold upon me. And as I quaked 15.and
trembled I fell upon my face And behold a vision. And Lo! There was a second house,
greater 16. than the former and the entire portal stood open before me and it was built of
flames of fire. And in every respect it so excelled in splendour and magnificence and
extent that I cannot describe to 17. you its splendour and its extent. And its floor was of
fire and above it were lightnings and the path 18. of the stars. And its ceiling also was a
flaming fire, And I looked and I saw therein a lofty throne: its appearance was a crystal,
and the wheels thereof as the shining sun, and there was the vision of the cherubim. 19.
And from underneath the throne came streams of flaming fire so that I could not look
thereon 20. And the Great Brilliance sat thereon, and His raiment shone more brightly
than the sun, 21. and was brighter than any snow. None of the angels could enter and
could behold His face by reason of the magnificence. 22. and brightness and no flesh
could behold Him. The flaming fire was round about Him, and a great fire stood before
Him. and none around could draw nigh Him: ten thousand times 23. ten thousand stood
before Him, yet He needed no counsellor. And the most set-apart ones who were 24. nigh
to Him did not leave by night nor depart from Him. And until then I had been prostrate
on my face, trying, and YHWH called me with His own Mouth, and said to me, come
hither Enoch, and hear my word" and one of the set-apart ones came to me and waked
me, and he made me rise up and approach the door and I bowed my face downwards.CHAPTER 15.
1. And He answered me and said to me and I heard His voice "Fear not Enoch you
righteous man 2. and scribe of righteousness; approach hither and hear My voice. And
go! Say to the Watchers of heaven, who have sent you to intercede for them, "You should
intercede for men" and not men for you. 3 Wherefore have you left the high, set-apart
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 the earth 4. And begotten
giants as your sons?" And though you were set-apart, spiritual living the eternal life, you
have defiled yourselves with the blood of women, and 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. 6. that, thus nothing might be wanting to them on earth
7, But you were formerly spiritual, living the eternal life. and immortal for all generations
of the world. And therefore I have not appointed wives for you; for as for the spiritual
ones of heaven , in heaven is there dwelling. 8. And now the 'giants' who are produced
from the spirits of flesh, shall be called 'evil-spirits' upon the earth 9. And on the earth
shall be there dwelling. Evil spirits have proceeded from their bodies, because they are
born from men and from the 'set-apart Watchers' is their beginning and primal origins 10.
They shall be ‘evil’ spirits on earth, and 'evil-spirits' shall they be called. 11. As for the
'spirits' of heaven, in heaven shall be their dwelling. 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 12. hunger and thirst, and cause offences. And these
'spirits' shall rise up against the children of men and against women, because they have
proceeded from them...CHAPTER 16.
1. From the days of the slaughter and destruction and death of the giants, from the souls
of whose flesh their spirits, having gone forth, shall destroy without incurring judgement;
Thus shall they destroy until the day of the consummation, the great day of judgement in
which the 'age' shall be consummated over the 'Watchers' and the 'disobedient'. Yea shall
be wholly consummated" And now as to the Watchers who have sent you to intercede for
them, who had been previously 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 women, and through these
mysteries women and men work much evil on earth".. 4. Say to them therefore; "You
have no peace!"
