Taken by Angels | I Enoch Chapter 6

And I saw the corner−stone of the earth, I saw the four winds which bear the firmament of the heaven.

Chapter 6

1 Angels took and brought me to a place in which those who were there were

like flaming fire, and when they wished, they appeared as men.

2 And they brought me to the place of darkness, and to a mountain the point of

whose summit reached to heaven.

3 And I saw the places of the luminaries and the treasuries of the stars and of the

thunder and in the uttermost depths, where were a fiery bow and arrows and

their quiver, and a fiery sword and all the lightnings.

4 And they took me to the living waters, and to the fire of the west, which

receives every setting of the sun.

5 And I came to a river of fire in which the fire flows like water and discharges

itself into the great sea towards the west.

6 I saw the great rivers and came to the great river and to the great darkness, and

went to the place where no flesh walks. I saw the mountains of the darkness of

winter and the place whence all the waters of the deep flow.

7 I saw the mouths of all the rivers of the earth and the mouth of the deep.

8 I saw the treasuries of all the winds, I saw how He had furnished with them the

whole creation and the firm foundations of the earth.

9 And I saw the corner−stone of the earth, I saw the four winds which bear the

firmament of the heaven.

10 And I saw how the winds stretch out the vaults of heaven, and have their

station between heaven and earth: these are the pillars of the heaven.

11 I saw the winds of heaven which turn and bring the circumference of the sun

and all the stars to their setting.

12 I saw the winds on the earth carrying the clouds: I saw the paths of the angels.

13 I saw at the end of the earth the firmament of the heaven above and I

proceeded and saw a place which burns day and night, where there are seven

mountains of magnificent stones.

14 Three towards the east, and three towards the south. And as for those towards

the east, was of coloured stone, and one of pearl, and one of jacinth, and those

towards the south of red stone.

15 But the middle one reached to heaven like the throne of God, of alabaster, and

the summit of the throne was of sapphire.

16 And I saw a flaming fire. And beyond these mountains is a region the end of

the great earth: there the heavens were completed.

17 And I saw a deep abyss, with columns of heavenly fire, and among them I

saw columns of fire fall, which were beyond measure alike towards the height

and towards the depth.

18 And beyond that abyss I saw a place which had no firmament of the heaven

above, and no firmly founded earth beneath it: there was no water upon it, and

no birds, but it was a waste and horrible place.

19 I saw there seven stars like great burning mountains, and to me, when I

inquired regarding them. The angel said: "This place is the end of heaven and

earth. This has become a prison for the stars and the host of heaven.

20 And the stars which roll over the fire are they which have transgressed the

commandment of the Lord in the beginning of their rising, because they did not

come forth at their appointed times.

21 And He was wroth with them, and bound them till the time when their guilt

should be consummated for ten thousand years."

22 And Uriel said to me: "Here shall stand the angels who have connected

themselves with women, and their spirits assuming many different forms are

defiling mankind and shall lead them astray into sacrificing to demons as gods.

23 Here shall they stand, till the day of the great judgement in which they shall

be judged till they are made an end of. And the women also of the angels who

went astray shall become sirens."

24 And I, Enoch, alone saw the vision, the ends of all things: and no man shall

see as I have seen.
