Chapter 80 Section XV

1. And in those days Uriel answered and said to me: "Behold, I have showed thee all things, O Enoch, and have revealed to thee that thou shouldst see this sun and this moon, and those who lead the stars of heaven and all those that revolve, their deeds and their times and their departures.

2. And in the days of the sinners the years will be shortened, and their seed will be tardy on their lands and on their meadows, and everything on the earth will change and will not appear in its time; the rain will be prevented, and the heavens will retain it.

3. And in those times the fruit of the earth will be tardy and will not grow in its time; and the fruit of the trees will be prevented in its time.

4. And the moon will change her order and will not appear in her time.

5. And in those days it will be seen on the heavens that a great unfruitfulness will come on the outermost chariot in the west; and she will shine more brightly that according to the order of light.

6. And many of the leaders of the stars of command will err, and they will change their paths and deeds, and those subject to them will not appear in their time.

7. And the whole order of the stars will be kept from the sinners, and the thoughts of those who dwell on the earth will err concerning them, and they will be turned from all their ways, and will err and consider them gods.

8. And evil will increase over them, and punishment will come upon them to destroy them all."
