Originally a # # book of the Hebrew Bible (as attested by the Qumran manuscripts), # # it was removed from the Jewish and Catholic canons at a very early # # date, and now survives only in the Coptic Church canon. # # # # This file is derived from an HTML edition prepared by Michal # # Jerabek, Institute of Ancient Near Eastern Studies Charles # # University (Prague, Czech Republic). That HTML document was # # fetched on 1998-09-20 from # # "http://anes235-1.ff.cuni.cz/projects/semitic/ethiopian/books/Enoch/", # # files "book_1/gi1.htm" to "book_5/gv108.htm" (108 files). # # # # English translations are taken from "The Apocrypha and # # Pseudepigrapha of the Old Testament", R. H. Charles, The Clarendon # # Press (Oxford), Scanned and Edited by Joshua Williams, Northwest # # Nazarene College, 1995; fetched on 2004-02-20 from # # "http://wesley.nnu.edu/noncanon/ot/pseudo/enoch.htm" # # # # The following description is taken from M. Jerabek's # # introduction (file "about.html"), with minor adaptations: # # # # Composite pseudoepigraphic work, sometimes called 1st Enoch # # (to distinguish it from the 2nd -- Slavonic -- Enoch), # # completely preserved only in Ethiopic (Ge`ez). There are also # # two extensive fragments of the texts in Greek found in Akhmim # # in 1886. In addition several hundred Aramaic fragments were # # discovered in Cave IV in Qumran in 1952. # # # # This so-called "Book of Enoch" is divisible into five # # originally separate portions: # # # # Part 1 (The "Book of Watchers") -- chapters 1 - 36: # # # # Introduction; contemplation of Nature; descent of two # # hundreds angels to Earth -- they took human women for # # their wives, begot children (giants), led mankind astray # # but finally were destroyed by God; Enoch's journeys in # # Heavens, Earth and Underworld. # # # # This may be the most ancient part of the collection. Dated # # back to the 3rd century B.C. # # # # Part 2 (The "Book of Parables") -- chapters 37 - 71: # # # # Description of the days of the Last Judgement; journey to # # Heaven; meeting with the Chosen One; uncovering of all # # heavenly mysteries. # # # # Dating of this book varies from the 1st half of the first # # century B.C. to the end of the first century A.D. # # # # Part 3 (The "Astronomical Book") -- hapters 72 - 82: # # # # Description of revolution of heavenly bodies that showed # # Uriel the angel to Enoch. # # # # Qumran fragments of this text are dated to the end of the # # 3rd of the beginning of the 2nd century B.C. Existence of # # an older Hebrew text is possible but uncertain. # # # # Part 4 (The "Book of Dreams") -- chapters 83 - 90: # # # # Vision of destruction of Earth; vision of world history # # from Adam to the first days of heavenly Kingdom -- cattle, # # sheep and other animals represent main characters and # # their features. # # # # Aramaic fragments from Qumran corresponding to this texts # # are dated to the third quarter of the 2nd century B.C. # # # # Part 5 (The "Epistle of Enoch") -- chapters 91 - 108: # # # # Testament of Enoch; chapter 93:1 - 14 and 91:12 - 17 # # respectively -- so called Apocalypse of the Ten Weeks # # describing world history from the beginning the Last # # Judgement and creation of new heavens. # # # # Dated to the half of the 1st century BC. # # # # It is not clear when exactly and from which sources the # # Ethiopic translation was created. Most probably both Aramaic # # and Greek versions were used; influence (or even existence) # # of some Hebrew /vorlage/ was discussed but is still unclear. # # # # The English translation is only partly synchronized with the text # # --- sometimes at the sentence level, sometimes at the chapter # # level only. Compared to it, Jerabek's source file appears to be # # missing part of Chapter 5 (lines marked {6c} through {6g} in the # # translation), and the last line of chapter 20 (of the angel # # Remiel); and the angel list at the end of chapter 6 seems to be # # garbled. On the other hand, the translation too seems incomplete # # and garbled at times. Caveat lector. # # # # LANGUAGE, SPELLING AND ENCODING # # # # The language is Ge`ez (classical Ethiopian, the liturgical # # language of the Orthodox Ethiopian Church). It is an Afro-Asiatic # # ("Hamito-Semitic") language, related to Arabic and Hebrew. Unlike # # its cousins which are usually written with consonant-only scripts, # # Ge`ez is written with a complete syllabary (the "fidel" or # # "feedel") that fully records the vowels as well as the consonants. # # # # This file uses the SERA encoding, a semi-phonetic transliteration # # of the Ethiopian syllabary in ASCII. See the table at the end of # # this file. However, some punctuation signs were changed as # # follows: # # # # SERA ":" (Ge`ez word separator) --> ASCII SP and/or NL # # SERA "::" (Ge`ez full stop) --> "@{.}" # # # # The "Ethiopian stylized dot (SERA ".") was not used in the source # # file, so this change does not create any ambiguity. The SERA # # gemination mark "@{''}" and the voiced sads vowel "@{`'}" are not # # used. # # # # DOCUMENT STRUCTURE # # # # @section 1 {pN} = start of part (1 to 5) # # @section 2 {cN} = start of chapter N (1,2,...) # # @section 3 {cn} = chapter number ("kfl." + Ge`ez numeral). # # @section 3 {tx} = chapter text # # # # The chapters are numbered sequentially 1..108 across the whole book, # # ignoring the division into parts. Chapter titles are the # # word "kfl." followed by an Ethiopic numeral. # # # # CHANGES FOR THIS FILE # # # # The original files were concatenated and reformatted by J. Stolfi # # for the purposes linguistic analysis. # # # # The source files had no SERA paragraph marks ":|:". Therefore, the # # Ethiopian text below contains no explicit line or paragraph # # delimiters. (These are sometimes indicated by "÷" and "=" in the # # translation.) However, to improve legibility, a blank line was # # inserted after every text line that ended with a SERA full stop # # "::". # # # # In the original HTML files for chapters 1 through 7, the Ge`ez # # text was broken at intervals by numbers, in european digits, # # delimited by '\'s, and also by explicit paragraph breaks marked by # # "

" tags. Since these divisions did not coincide with each other # # or with sentence boundaries, and were not present in chapters # # 8-108, they were retained only as {}-comments embedded in the text. # # # # TEXTUAL CORRECTIONS # # # # The following localized changes were made in the text: # # # # chapter 3: "@{ze'iytnegef!u}" --> "@{ze'iytnegef`u}" # # chapter 37: deleted duplicate chapter title "@{kfl `30`7.}" # # chapter 69: "@{`10we`7 simapisi'El}" --> "@{`10 we `6 simapisi'El}" # # chapter 89: "@{leHe rgE}" --> "@{leHergE}" # # # # The word "@{we}" often occurs between the components of a Ge`ez # # numeral, as in "@{`10 we`3}" for 10+3 = 13.

' And # # thereupon there was a great commotion , on the earth, and a voice # # was heard from heaven, and I fell on my face.

And the second was named Asbeel: he # # imparted to the holy sons of God evil counsel, and led them astray # # so that they defiled {6} their bodies with the daughters of men. # # And the third was named Gadreel: he it is who showed the children # # of men all the blows of death, and he led astray Eve, and showed # # [the weapons of death to the sons of men] the shield and the coat # # of mail, and the sword for battle, and all the weapons {7} of # # death to the children of men.

And if five years are added # # together the sun has an overplus of thirty days, and all the days # # which accrue {11} to it for one of those five years, when they are # # full, amount to 364 days. And the overplus of the sun and of the # # stars amounts to six days: in 5 years 6 days every year come # # to 30 days: and the {12} moon falls behind the sun and stars to # # the number of 30 days. And the sun and the stars bring in all # # the years exactly, so that they do not advance or delay their # # position by a single day unto eternity; but complete the years # # with perfect justice in 364 days. In 3 years there are # # 1,092 days, and in 5 years 1,820 days, so that in 8 # # years there are 2,912 days. For the moon alone the days amount # # in 3 years to 1,062 days, and in 5 years she falls 50 # # days behind: [i.e. to the sum (of 1,770) there is 5 to be # # added (1,000 and) 62 days.] And in 5 years there are # # 1,770 days, so that for the moon the days 6 in 8 years # # amount to 21,832 days. [For in 8 years she falls behind to # # the amount of 80 days], all the 17 days she falls behind in # # 8 years are 80. And the year is accurately completed in # # conformity with their world-stations and the stations of the sun, # # which rise from the portals through which it (the sun) rises and # # sets 30 days. = # # @section 2 {c75} $ {p3}{c75} # @section 3 {cn} $ {p3}{c75}{cn} # @ 5756 a kfl s `70`5 p . # # @section 3 {tx} $ {p3}{c75}{tx} # @ 5760 a wemera`hyanihomu a le'ar'Iste a 'a'Ilaf a 'Ile a dibe @ 5761 a kWulu a fTret a wedibe a kWulu a kewakbt @ 5762 a wemsle s `4 a 'Ile a ytwEseku a we'iytlEleyu @ 5763 a Imnbaromu a bekeme a kWulu a Hesabe a `amet @ 5764 a we'Ilu a ytqeneyu s `4 a mewa`Ile a 'Ile @ 5765 a iytHesebu a beHesabe a `amet p . # @ 5767 a webe'Inti'ahomu a ygEgyu a bomu a seb'I a 'Isme @ 5768 a Imuntu a brhanat a ytqeneyu a beSdq a bemnbare @ 5769 a `alem s `1 a beqedami a `ho`ht s we`1 a be`sals @ 5770 a `ho`ht s we`1 a berab`I a `ho`ht s we`1 a besads @ 5771 a `ho`ht a weytfESem a TnqawE a `alem s bebe`3`100 s we`8 s we`4 @ 5772 a menbere a `alem p . # @ 5774 a Isme a let'Imrt a wele'azman a wele`ametat a welemewa`Il @ 5775 a ar'ayeni a 'ur'El a mel'ak a ze'anbero a 'Igzi'a @ 5776 a sbHet a zele`alem a dibe a kWulomu a brhanate @ 5777 a semay a besemay a webe`alem a keme a ymlku @ 5778 a begeSe a semay a weytre'ayu a dibe a mdr @ 5779 a weykunu a mera`hyane a leme`alt a welelElit a `SeHey @ 5780 a wewer`h a wekewakbt a wekWulu a qnyetat a 'Ile @ 5781 a ye'awdu a bekWulomu a seregelate a semay p . # @ 5783 a kemez s `10 s we`2 a `hewa`hwe a r`hwate @ 5784 a ar'ayeni a 'ur'El a bekbebe a seregelat a zeSeHey @ 5785 a besemay a 'Ile a 'ImnEhomu a yweS'u a 'Igeriha @ 5786 a leSeHey a we'ImnEhomu a yweS'I a moq a dibe @ 5787 a mdr a sobe a ytre`hewu a be'azman a 'Ile @ 5788 a Imuran a bomu p . # @ 5790 a welenefasat a welemenfese a Tel a sobe a ytre`hewu @ 5791 a be'azman a r`hwate a besemayat a dibe a 'aSnaf p . # @ 5793 s `10 s we`2 a `hewa`hwe a r'iku a besemay @ 5794 a be'aSnafe a mdr a 'Ile a 'ImnEhomu a yweS'u @ 5795 a `SeHey a wewer`h a wekewakbt a wekWulu a gbrate @ 5796 a semay a 'Imne a m`sraq a we'Imne a m`Irab p . # @ 5798 a wemesakw a r`hwat a bzu`hat a 'Im`Segamu a we'Imyemanu @ 5799 a we'aHeti a meskot a bezemene a zi'aha a tamewq @ 5800 a moqe a zekeme a 'Ilku a `hewa`hw a 'Ile @ 5801 a yweS'u a 'ImnEhomu a kewakbt a bekeme a 'azezomu @ 5802 a we'Ile a bomu a ye`erbu a bekeme a hWulqomu p . # @ 5804 a wer'iku a seregelate a besemay a 'Inze a yrew`Su @ 5805 a be`alem a 'Imel`Iltomu a we'ImetHtomu a le'Ilku a `hewa`hw @ 5806 a Ile a bomu a ytmeyeTu a kewakbt a 'Ile a 'iye`erbu p . # @ 5808 s we`1 a ye`ebyomu a lekWulomu a wew'Itu a ye'awd @ 5809 a lekWulu a `alem p . # # # {1} And the leaders of the heads of the thousands, who are placed # # over the whole creation and over all the stars, have also to do # # with the four intercalary days, being inseparable from their # # office, according to the reckoning of the year, and these render # # service on the four days which are not {2} reckoned in the # # reckoning of the year.

And in her waning # # (the moon) decreases on the first day to fourteen parts of her # # light, on the second to thirteen parts of light, on the third to # # twelve, on the fourth to eleven, on the fifth to ten, on the sixth # # to nine, on the seventh to eight, on the eighth to seven, on the # # ninth to six, on the tenth to five, on the eleventh to four, on # # the twelfth to three, on the thirteenth to two, on the {9} # # fourteenth to the half of a seventh, and all her remaining light # # disappears wholly on the fifteenth. And {10} in certain months the # # month has twenty-nine days and once twenty-eight. And Uriel showed # # me another law: when light is transferred to the moon, and on # # which side it is transferred to her by the sun. During all the # # period during which the moon is growing in her light, she is # # transferring it to herself when opposite to the sun during # # fourteen days [her light is accomplished in the heaven, {12} and # # when she is illumined throughout, her light is accomplished full # # in the heaven. And on the first {13} day she is called the new # # moon, for on that day the light rises upon her. She becomes full # # moon exactly on the day when the sun sets in the west, and from # # the east she rises at night, and the moon shines the whole night # # through till the sun rises over against her and the moon is seen # # over against the sun. On the side whence the light of the moon # # comes forth, there again she wanes till all the light vanishes and # # all the days of the month are at an end, and her circumference is # # empty, void of {5} light. And three months she makes of thirty # # days, and at her time she makes three months of twenty- nine days # # each, in which she accomplishes her waning in the first period of # # time, and in the first {6} portal for one hundred and # # seventy-seven days. And in the time of her going out she appears # # for three months (of) thirty days each, and for three months she # # appears (of) twenty-nine each. At night she appears like a man for # # twenty days each time, and by day she appears like the heaven, and # # there is nothing else in her save her light. = # # @section 2 {c79} $ {p3}{c79} # @section 3 {cn} $ {p3}{c79}{cn} # @ 6174 a kfl s `70`9 p . # # @section 3 {tx} $ {p3}{c79}{tx} # @ 6178 a wey'IzEni a weldye a matusala a 'ar'aykuke a kWulo @ 6179 a wetefeSeme a kWulu a `sr`ete a kewakbt a zesemay p . # @ 6181 a we'ar'ayeni a kWulo a `sr`etomu a le'Ilu a 'Inte @ 6182 a bekWulu a mewa`Il a webekWulu a zemen a zebekWulu @ 6183 a `slTan a webekWulu a `amet a webemu`Sa'u a webet'Izazu @ 6184 a bekWulu a wer`h a webekWulu a senbetat p . # @ 6186 a we`h`Se`Se a wer`h a zeytgeber a besadst a `ho`ht @ 6187 a Isme a bezati a `ho`ht a sadst a ytfESem @ 6188 a brhane a zi'ahu a we'ImnEhu a ykewn a r'Ise a wer`h p . # @ 6190 a weta`h`Sa`Sit a zeytgeber a be`ho`ht a qedamit a bezemene @ 6191 a zi'ahu a 'Iske a ytfESem a mewa`Il s `100 s we`70 s we`7 @ 6192 a webe`sr`ete a senbet s `20 s we`5 s we`2 a mewa`Il p . # @ 6194 a wezeyeHe`S`S a 'Im`SeHey a webe`sr`ete a kewakbt a `hemuse @ 6195 a mewa`Ile a bezemen s `1 a Tnquqe a wesobe @ 6196 a ytfESem a zmekan a zetrE'i p . # @ 6198 a kemez a 'ar'aya a we'amsal a 'ImkWulu a brhan @ 6199 a ze'ar'ayeni a 'ur'El a mel'ak a `ebiy a zew'Itu @ 6200 a mera`hihomu p . # # # {1} And now, my son, I have shown thee everything, and the law of # # all the stars of the heaven is {2} completed.

Two visions I # # saw before I took a wife, and the one was quite unlike the other: # # the first when I was learning to write: the second before I took # # thy mother, (when) I saw a terrible {3} vision. And regarding them # # I prayed to the Lord. I had laid me down in the house of my # # grandfather Mahalalel, (when) I saw in a vision how the heaven # # collapsed and was borne off and fell to {4} the earth. And when it # # fell to the earth I saw how the earth was swallowed up in a great # # abyss, and mountains were suspended on mountains, and hills sank # # down on hills, and high trees were rent {5} from their stems, and # # hurled down and sunk in the abyss. And thereupon a word fell into # # my mouth, {6} and I lifted up (my voice) to cry aloud, and said: ' # # The earth is destroyed.' And my grandfather Mahalalel waked me as # # I lay near him, and said unto me: ' Why dost thou cry so, my son, # # and why {7} dost thou make such lamentation?' And I recounted to # # him the whole vision which I had seen, and he said unto me: ' A # # terrible thing hast thou seen, my son, and of grave moment is thy # # dream- vision as to the secrets of all the sin of the earth: it # # must sink into the abyss and be destroyed with {8} a great # # destruction. And now, my son, arise and make petition to the Lord # # of glory, since thou art a believer, that a remnant may remain on # # the earth, and that He may not destroy the whole {9} earth. My # # son, from heaven all this will come upon the earth, and upon the # # earth there will be great {10} destruction. After that I arose and # # prayed and implored and besought, and wrote down my prayer for the # # generations of the world, and I will show everything to thee, my # # son Methuselah. And when I had gone forth below and seen the # # heaven, and the sun rising in the east, and the moon setting in # # the west, and a few stars, and the whole earth, and everything as # # He had known it in the beginning, then I blessed the Lord of # # judgement and extolled Him because He had made the sun to go forth # # from the windows of the east, and he ascended and rose on the face # # of the heaven, and set out and kept traversing the path shown unto # # him. = # # @section 2 {c84} $ {p4}{c84} # @section 3 {cn} $ {p4}{c84}{cn} # @ 6690 a kfl s `80`4 p . # # @section 3 {tx} $ {p4}{c84}{tx} # @ 6694 a we'al`alku a 'Idewye a beSdq a webarekwo a leqdus a wele`ebiy @ 6695 a wenegerku a bemenfese a 'afuye a webelsane a `sga a 'Inte a gebre @ 6696 a amlak a lewlude a seb'I a keme a ytnageru a bati a wewehebomu @ 6697 a menfese a welsane a we'afe a keme a ytnageru a botu p . # @ 6699 a buruk a 'ante a 'Igzi'o a ngu`s a we`ebiy a we`heyal a be`Ibeye @ 6700 a zi'ake a 'Igzi'a a kWulu a fTrete a semay a ngu`se a nege`st @ 6701 a we'amlake a kWulu a `alem a wemelekotke a wemeng`stke a we`Ibeyke @ 6702 a ynebr a le`alem a wele`aleme a `alem a welekWulu a twlde a twld @ 6703 a slTanke a wekWulomu a semayat a menberke a le`alem a wekWula a mdr @ 6704 a mekeyede a 'Igerike a le`alem a wele`aleme a `alem p . # @ 6706 a Isme a 'ante a geberke a wekWulo a 'ante a tmelk a we'iySen`eke @ 6707 a gbr a wei s `1 a we'i'aHeti a Tbeb a 'ite`helfeke a we'ittmeyeT @ 6708 a Imenberta a mnbarike a we'i'ImgeSke a we'ante a kWulo a te'amr @ 6709 a wetrE'i a wetsem`I a we'albo a zeyt`heba'I a 'ImnEke a 'Isme a kWulo @ 6710 a trE'i p . # @ 6712 a wey'IzEni a mela'Ikte a semayatike a y'Ebsu a wedibe a `sga @ 6713 a seb'I a tkewn a me`etke a 'Iske a `Ilete a `ebay a kWunenE p . # @ 6715 a wey'IzEni a 'amlak a we'Igzi'I a wengu`s a `ebiy a 'astebeqWu`I @ 6716 a we'Is'Il a keme a taqm a lite a s'Iletye a keme a tatrf a lite @ 6717 a de`harite a wste a mdr a we'itaTf'I a kWulo a `sga a seb'I @ 6718 a we'ita`Irqa a lemdr a weykewn a HegWul a le`alem p . # @ 6720 a wey'IzEni a 'Igzi'Iye a 'aTf'I a 'Imdibe a mdr a `sga a 'am`I`eteke @ 6721 a we`sga a Sdq a wert`I a 'aqm a letekle a zer'I a le`alem a we'itsewr @ 6722 a geSeke a 'Ims'Ilete a gebrke a 'Igzi'o p . # # # {1} And I lifted up my hands in righteousness and blessed the Holy # # and Great One, and spake with the breath of my mouth, and with the # # tongue of flesh, which God has made for the children of the flesh # # of men, that they should speak therewith, and He gave them breath # # and a tongue and a mouth that they should speak therewith: = # # # # {2} Blessed be Thou, O Lord, King, ÷ # # Great and mighty in Thy greatness, ÷ # # Lord of the whole creation of the heaven, ÷ # # King of kings and God of the whole world. = # # # # And Thy power and kingship and greatness # # abide for ever and ever, ÷ # # And throughout all generations Thy dominion;

# undertook the pasturing (of the sheep), and they severally # # completed their periods as did the first; and others received them # # into their {2} hands, to pasture them for their period, each # # shepherd in his own period. And after that I saw in my vision all # # the birds of heaven coming, the eagles, the vultures, the kites, # # the ravens; but the eagles led all the birds; and they began to # # devour those sheep, and to pick out their eyes and to {3} devour # # their flesh. And the sheep cried out because their flesh was being # # devoured by the birds, {4} and as for me I looked and lamented in # # my sleep over that shepherd who pastured the sheep. And I saw # # until those sheep were devoured by the dogs and eagles and kites, # # and they left neither flesh nor skin nor sinew remaining on them # # till only their bones stood there: and their bones too fell {5} to # # the earth and the sheep became few. And I saw until that # # twenty-three had undertaken the pasturing and completed in their # # several periods fifty-eight times. {6} But behold lambs were borne # # by those white sheep, and they began to open their eyes and to # # see, {7} and to cry to the sheep. Yea, they cried to them, but # # they did not hearken to what they said to {8} them, but were # # exceedingly deaf, and their eyes were very exceedingly blinded. # # And I saw in the vision how the ravens flew upon those lambs and # # took one of those lambs, and dashed the sheep {9} in pieces and # # devoured them. And I saw till horns grew upon those lambs, and the # # ravens cast down their horns; and I saw till there sprouted a # # great horn of one of those sheep, and their eyes {10} were opened. # # And it looked at them [and their eyes opened], and it cried to the # # sheep, and the {11} rams saw it and all ran to it. And # # notwithstanding all this those eagles and vultures and ravens and # # kites still kept tearing the sheep and swooping down upon them and # # devouring them: still the sheep remained silent, but the rams # # lamented and cried out. And those ravens fought and battled with # # it and sought to lay low its horn, but they had no power over it. # # All the eagles and vultures and ravens and kites were gathered # # together, and there came with them all the sheep of the field, # # yea, they all came together, and helped each other to break that # # horn of the ram. {19} And I saw till a great sword was given to # # the sheep, and the sheep proceeded against all the beasts of the # # field to slay them, and all the beasts and the birds of the heaven # # fled before their face. And I saw that man, who wrote the book # # according to the command of the Lord, till he opened that book # # concerning the destruction which those twelve last shepherds had # # wrought, and showed that they had destroyed much more than their # # predecessors, before the Lord of the sheep. And I saw till the # # Lord of the sheep came unto them and took in His hand the staff of # # His wrath, and smote the earth, and the earth clave asunder, and # # all the beasts and all the birds of the heaven fell from among # # those sheep, and were swallowed up in the earth and it covered # # them. {20} And I saw till a throne was erected in the pleasant # # land, and the Lord of the sheep sat Himself thereon, and the other # # took the sealed books and opened those books before the Lord of # # the sheep. {21} And the Lord called those men the seven first # # white ones, and commanded that they should bring before Him, # # beginning with the first star which led the way, all the stars # # whose privy members {22} were like those of horses, and they # # brought them all before Him. And He said to that man who wrote # # before Him, being one of those seven white ones, and said unto # # him: ' Take those seventy shepherds to whom I delivered the sheep, # # and who taking them on their own authority slew more {23} than I # # commanded them.' And behold they were all bound, I saw, and they # # all stood before Him. {24} And the judgement was held first over # # the stars, and they were judged and found guilty, and went to the # # place of condemnation, and they were cast into an abyss, full of # # fire and flaming, and full {25} of pillars of fire. And those # # seventy shepherds were judged and found guilty, and they were cast # # {26} into that fiery abyss. And I saw at that time how a like # # abyss was opened in the midst of the earth, full of fire, and they # # brought those blinded sheep, and they were all judged and found # # guilty and {27} cast into this fiery abyss, and they burned; now # # this abyss was to the right of that house. And I saw those sheep # # burning and their bones burning. {28} And I stood up to see till # # they folded up that old house; and carried off all the pillars, # # and all the beams and ornaments of the house were at the same time # # folded up with it, and they carried {29} it off and laid it in a # # place in the south of the land. And I saw till the Lord of the # # sheep brought a new house greater and loftier than that first, and # # set it up in the place of the first which had beer folded up: all # # its pillars were new, and its ornaments were new and larger than # # those of the first, the old one which He had taken away, and all # # the sheep were within it. {30} And I saw all the sheep which had # # been left, and all the beasts on the earth, and all the birds of # # the heaven, falling down and doing homage to those sheep and # # making petition to and obeying {31} them in every thing. And # # thereafter those three who were clothed in white and had seized me # # by my hand [who had taken me up before], and the hand of that ram # # also seizing hold of me, they {32} took me up and set me down in # # the midst of those sheep before the judgement took place. And # # those {33} sheep were all white, and their wool was abundant and # # clean. And all that had been destroyed and dispersed, and all the # # beasts of the field, and all the birds of the heaven, assembled in # # that house, and the Lord of the sheep rejoiced with great joy # # because they were all good and had returned to {34} His house. And # # I saw till they laid down that sword, which had been given to the # # sheep, and they brought it back into the house, and it was sealed # # before the presence of the Lord, and all the sheep {35} were # # invited into that house, but it held them not. And the eyes of # # them all were opened, and they {36} saw the good, and there was # # not one among them that did not see. And I saw that that house was # # large and broad and very full. {37} And I saw that a white bull # # was born, with large horns and all the beasts of the field and all # # the {38} birds of the air feared him and made petition to him all # # the time. And I saw till all their generations were transformed, # # and they all became white bulls; and the first among them became a # # lamb, and that lamb became a great animal and had great black # # horns on its head; and the Lord of the sheep {39} rejoiced over it # # and over all the oxen. And I slept in their midst: and I awoke and # # saw everything. {40} This is the vision which I saw while I slept, # # and I awoke and blessed the Lord of righteousness and {41} gave # # Him glory. Then I wept with a great weeping and my tears stayed # # not till I could no longer endure it: when I saw, they flowed on # # account of what I had seen; for everything shall come and {42} be # # fulfilled, and all the deeds of men in their order were shown to # # me. On that night I remembered the first dream, and because of it # # I wept and was troubled-because I had seen that vision. = # # # ####################################################################### # # Epistle of Enoch # # # # [Translator's note:] Section V.

And wait ye indeed till sin has passed away, for # # their names shall be blotted out of the book of life and out of # # the holy books, and their seed shall be destroyed for ever, and # # their spirits shall be slain, and they shall cry and make # # lamentation in a place that is a chaotic wilderness, and in the # # fire shall they burn; for there is no earth there. And I saw there # # something like an invisible cloud; for by reason of its depth I # # could not look over, and I saw a flame of fire blazing brightly, # # and things like shining {5} mountains circling and sweeping to and # # fro. And I asked one of the holy angels who was with me and said # # unto him: ' What is this shining thing? for it is not a heaven but # # only the flame of a blazing {6} fire, and the voice of weeping and # # crying and lamentation and strong pain.' And he said unto me: ' # # This place which thou seest-here are cast the spirits of sinners # # and blasphemers, and of those who work wickedness, and of those # # who pervert everything that the Lord hath spoken through the mouth # # {7} of the prophets-(even) the things that shall be. For some of # # them are written and inscribed above in the heaven, in order that # # the angels may read them and know that which shall befall the # # sinners, and the spirits of the humble, and of those who have # # afflicted their bodies, and been recompensed {8} by God; and of # # those who have been put to shame by wicked men: Who love God and # # loved neither gold nor silver nor any of the good things which are # # in the world, but gave over their bodies to torture. Who, since # # they came into being, longed not after earthly food, but regarded # # everything as a passing breath, and lived accordingly, and the # # Lord tried them much, and their spirits were {10} found pure so # # that they should bless His name. And all the blessings destined # # for them I have recounted in the books. And he hath assigned them # # their recompense, because they have been found to be such as loved # # heaven more than their life in the world, and though they were # # trodden under foot of wicked men, and experienced abuse and # # reviling from them and were put to shame, {11} yet they blessed # # Me. And now I will summon the spirits of the good who belong to # # the generation of light, and I will transform those who were born # # in darkness, who in the flesh were not recompensed {12} with such # # honour as their faithfulness deserved. And I will bring forth in # # shining light those who {13} have loved My holy name, and I will # # seat each on the throne of his honour. And they shall be # # resplendent for times without number; for righteousness is the # # judgement of God; for to the faithful {14} He will give # # faithfulness in the habitation of upright paths. And they shall # # see those who were , {15} born in darkness led into darkness, # # while the righteous shall be resplendent. And the sinners shall # # cry aloud and see them resplendent, and they indeed will go where # # days and seasons are prescribed for them.' = # # # END OF TEXT # ###################################################################### # # @include {sera-encoding.txt} # # Last edited on 2002-01-02 14:48:08 by stolfi # # SERA-based encoding of the Fidel (Ethiopian Syllabary) # # # # 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 # # g`Iz ka`Ib sals rab`I hams sads sab`I diqala --> # # # # 1 he hu hi ha hE h ho # # 2 le lu li la lE l lo lW/lWa # # 3 He Hu Hi Ha HE H Ho HW/HWa # # 4 me mu mi ma mE m mo mW/mWa # # 5 `se `su `si `sa `sE `s `so `sW/`sWa # # 6 re ru ri ra rE r ro rW/rWa # # 7 se su si sa sE s so sW/sWa # # 8 xe xu xi xa xE x xo xW/xWa # # 9 qe qu qi qa qE q qo qWe qW/qWu qWi qWa qWE # # 10 `qe `qu `qi `qa `qE `q `qo # # 11 Qe Qu Qi Qa QE Q Qo QWe QW/QWu QWi QWa QWE # # 12 be bu bi ba bE b bo bW/bWa # # 13 ve vu vi va vE v vo vW/vWa # # 14 te tu ti ta tE t to tW/tWa # # 15 ce cu ci ca cE c co cW/cWa # # 16 `he `hu `hi `ha `hE `h `ho hWe hW/hWu hWi hWa hWE # # 17 ne nu ni na nE n no nW/nWa # # 18 Ne Nu Ni Na NE N No NW/NWa # # 19 e/a* u i a E I o ea # # 20 ke ku ki ka kE k ko kWe kW/kWu kWi kWa kWE # # 21 `ke `ku `ki `ka `kE `k `ko # # 22 Ke Ku Ki Ka KE K Ko KWe KW/KWu KWi KWa KWE # # 23 Xe Xu Xi Xa XE X Xo # # 24 we wu wi wa wE w wo # # 25 `e `u `i `a `E `I `o # # 26 ze zu zi za zE z zo zW/zWa # # 27 Ze Zu Zi Za ZE Z Zo ZW/ZWa # # 28 ye yu yi ya yE y yo yW/yWa # # 29 de du di da dE d do dW/dWa # # 30 De Du Di Da DE D Do DW/DWa # # 31 je ju ji ja jE j jo jW/jWa # # 32 ge gu gi ga gE g go gWe gW/gWu gWi gWa gWE # # 33 `ge `gu `gi `ga `gE `g `go # # 34 Ge Gu Gi Ga GE G Go GWe GW/GWu GWi GWa GWE # # 35 Te Tu Ti Ta TE T To TW/TWa # # 36 Ce Cu Ci Ca CE C Co CW/CWa # # 37 Pe Pu Pi Pa PE P Po PW/PWa # # 38 Se Su Si Sa SE S So SW/SWa # # 39 `Se `Su `Si `Sa `SE `S `So # # 40 fe fu fi fa fE f fo fW/fWa # # 41 pe pu pi pa pE p po pW/pWa # # # # # # (*) ``a'' is only valid for (e) in transcription for Amharic. # # # # Extremely Rare Characters # # # # mYa, rYa, fYa # # # # Equivalents # # # # Consonant Series Special Series Lone Vowels # # # # B = b s2 = `s O = o # # F = f h2 = `h `O = `o # # J = j S2 = `S U = u # # L = l e2 = `e `U = `u # # M = m q2 = `q A = a # # R = r g2 = `g `A = `a # # V = v # # Y = y # # # # W = when not preceded by a consonant as defined above; it is left to # # the specific application to interpret. -- It may be ignored or # # given an additional phonetic character if available. # # # # Punctuation and Numbers in Fidel Text Zones # # # # , Ge'ez Comma # # ; Ge'ez Semicolon # # `: Ge'ez Wordspace # # :- Ge'ez Preface Colon # # -: Ge'ez Colon # # : Ge'ez Wordspace OR Ge'ez Colon, depending on default settings # # :: Ge'ez Full Stop # # << Ge'ez Left Quote # # >> Ge'ez Right Quote # # :|: Ge'ez Paragraph Terminator # # `!
