I saw also the mouths of all the rivers in the world, and the mouths of the deep.

I went from thence to another place, and saw a mountain of fire flashing both by day and night. I proceeded towards it; and perceived seven splendid mountains, which were all different from each other.
Their stones were brilliant and beautiful; all were brilliant and splendid to behold; and beautiful was their surface. Three _mountains_ were towards the east, and strengthened by being placed one upon another; and three were towards the south, strengthened in a similar manner. There were likewise deep valleys, which did not approach each other. And the seventh mountain was in the midst of them. In length they all resembled the seat of a throne, and odoriferous trees surrounded them.

There were likewise deep valleys, which did not approach each other. And the seventh mountain was in the midst of them. In length they all resembled the seat of a throne, and odoriferous trees surrounded them.
Among these there was a tree of an unceasing smell; nor of those which were in Eden was there one of all the fragrant trees which smelt like this. Its leaf, its flower, and its bark never withered, and its fruit was beautiful.
And that tree of an agreeable smell, not one of carnal _odour_, there shall be no power to touch, until the period of the great judgment. When all shall be punished and consumed for ever, this shall be bestowed on the righteous and humble. The fruit of this _tree_ shall be given to the elect. For towards the north life shall be planted in the holy place, towards the habitation of the everlasting King.
There was a valley, but not a wide one, below it; and in the midst of them were other deep and dry valleys towards the extremity of the three. All these valleys, which were deep, but not wide, consisted of a strong rock, with a tree which was planted in them. And I wondered at the rock and at the valleys, being extremely surprised.
Then I said, What means this blessed land, all these lofty trees, and the accursed valley between them?
Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who were with me, replied, This valley is the accursed of the accursed for ever. Here shall be collected all who utter with their mouths unbecoming language against God, and speak harsh things of His glory. Here shall they be collected. Here shall be their territory.

I numbered them as they proceeded out of the gate, and wrote them all down, as they came out one by one according to their number. _I wrote down_ their names altogether, their times and their seasons, as the angel Uriel, who was with me, pointed them out to me.
He showed them all to me, and wrote down _an account of_ them.
When I beheld _them_, I blessed; every time _in which they appeared_, I blessed the Lord of glory, who had made those great and splendid signs, that they might display the magnificence of his works to angels and to the souls of men; and that these might glorify all his works and operations; might see the effect of his power; might glorify the great labour of his hands; and bless him for ever.

The second is he who _presides_ over every suffering and every affliction of the sons of men, the holy Raphael. The third, who _presides_ over all that is powerful, is Gabriel.

These are the four angels of the most high God, and their four voices, which at that time I heard.
After this I beheld the secrets of the heavens and of paradise, according to its divisions; and of human action, as they weigh it there in balances.

I beheld another splendour, and the stars of heaven. I observed that he called them all by their respective names, and that they heard.

He answered and said to me, This is the Son of man, to whom righteousness belongs; with whom righteousness has dwelt; and who will reveal all the treasures of that which is concealed: for the Lord of spirits has chosen him; and his portion has surpassed all before the Lord of spirits in everlasting uprightness.

And that angel of peace answered me, saying, Wait but a short time, and thou shalt understand, and every secret thing shall be revealed to thee, which the Lord of spirits has decreed. Those mountains which thou hast seen, the mountain of iron, the mountain of copper, the mountain of silver, the mountain of gold, the mountain of fluid metal, and the mountain of lead, all these in the presence of the Elect One shall be like a honeycomb before the fire, and like water descending from above upon these mountains; and shall become debilitated before his feet.

They shall stand up, and shall not fail for ever and ever.
