THE BOOK OF ENOCH

SECTION XI.

CHAPTER 67. [The word comes to Noah, with the Judgment for the rulers of TODAY: "... as in the days of Noe."]

[Notice that this part of what today we call The Book of Enoch was actually written by his great-grandson NOAH. There were five (5) books attributed to Enoch, which were bound together into one: as were the many "books of the bible" which were gathered together in one book.]

1. And in those days the voice of God was with me, and he said to me: "Noah, behold thy portion has ascended to me, a portion without blame, a portion of love and of rectitude.

2. And now the angels are making a wooden building, and when they are gone to that work, I will lift up my hands upon it and will preserve it; and out of it will be [i.e. come] the seed of life, and a change will come so that the earth does not remain empty.

3. And I will strengthen thy seed before me to all eternity, and will scatter those who dwell with thee over the face of the earth, and it [i.e. the seed] will be blessed and increased over the earth in the name of the Lord."

4. And they will enclose those angels who have showed injustice in that flaming valley which my grandfather Enoch showed to me before, in the west, in the mountains of gold and of silver and of iron and of soft metal and of zinc.

5. And I saw that valley, in which there was a great shaking and a shaking of the waters.

6. And as this took place there was produced from that flaming, flowing metal, and out of the shaking that shook them, at that place, an odor of sulphur, and it united with those waters; and that valley of the angels who had led astray burned under that earth.

7. And through the valley of that earth come rivers of fire, where those angels who had led astray those who dwell on the earth are condemned.

8. And those waters will be in those days for the kings and the powerful and exalted and those who dwell on the earth, a medicine of the soul and of the body, but for a judgment of the spirit, because their spirits are full of lust, that they be punished in their bodies, because they have denied the Lord of the spirits, and see their judgments daily, and still believe not in his name.

9. And as the burning of their bodies increases there will be a change in their spirit to all eternity; for no one will speak a vain word before the Lord of the spirits.

10. For the judgment comes over them, because they believe in the lust of their flesh, and deny the spirit of the Lord.

11. And those waters themselves, in those days, suffer a change, for when those angels shall be condemned on those days, the heat of those fountains of the waters changes, and when the angels ascend, this water of the fountains changes and becomes cold.

12. And I heard the holy Michael answering and saying: "This judgment wherewith the angels are condemned is a testimony for the kings and the powerful and for those who hold the earth.

13. "For these waters of judgment are a healing of the angels, and a death to their bodies, but they will not see and will not believe that those waters change, and will become a fire, which burns to eternity."
