Chanuk (Enoch) — 71

1 Afterward, my ruach was concealed, ascending into the Shamaym. I beheld the Qadash Malakym treading on flaming fire, whose garments and robes were white, and whose countenances were transparent as crystal.

2 I saw two rivers of fire glittering like the hyacinth.

3 Then I fell on my face before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH Tsaba'ut.

4 And Maky'AL, one of the high Malak, took me by my right hand, raised me up, and brought me out where was every secret mercy and secret righteousness.

5 He showed me all the hidden things of the extremities of Shamaym, all the receptacles of the stars, and the splendors of all, from whence they went forth before the face of the Qadash.

6 And he concealed the ruach of Chanuk in the Shamaym.

7 There I beheld, in the midst of that light, a building raised with stones of ice;

8 And in the midst of these stone tongues of living fire. My ruach saw around the circle of this flaming habitation, on one of its extremities, rivers full of living fire, which encompassed it.

9 Then the Saraphiym, the Karubym, and Uphaniym surrounded it: these are those who never sleep but watch the throne of His Kabad.

10 And I beheld Malakym innumerable, thousands of thousands, and myriads and myriads, who surrounded that habitation.

11 Maky'AL, Rapha'AL, Gabry'AL, Panu'AL and the Qadash Malakym who were in the Shamaym above, went in and out of it. Maky'AL, Rapha'AL, and Gabry'AL went out of that habitation, and Qadash Malakym innumerable.

12 With them was the Ancient of Days, whose head was white as wool, and pure, and his robe was indescribable.

13 Then I fell upon my face, while all my flesh was dissolved, and my ruach became changed.

14 I cried out with a loud voice, with a powerful ruach, Barakah, Esteeming, and exalting.

15 And those Barakah, which proceeded from my mouth, became acceptable in the presence of the Ancient of Days.

16 The Ancient of Days came with Maky'AL and Gabry'AL, Rapha'AL and Panu'AL, with thousands of thousands, and myriads and myriads, which could not be numbered.

17 Then that Malak came to me, and with his voice saluted me, saying: You are the Son of A'dam, who is born for righteousness, and righteousness has rested upon you.

18 The righteousness of the Ancient of Days shall not forsake you.

19 He said: On you shall he confer Shalum in the name of the existing world; for from thence has Shalum gone forth since the world was created.

20 And thus shall it happen to you forever and ever.

21 All who shall exist, and who shall walk in your path of righteousness, shall not forsake you forever.

22 With you shall be their habitations, with you, their lot; nor from you shall they be separated forever and ever.

23 And thus shall length of days be with the Son of A'dam.

24 Shalum shall be to the righteous; and the path of integrity shall the righteous pursue, in the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄_YAHUAH Tsaba'ut, forever and ever.
