And His footsteps stand firm on the water, and are not injured; they are as firm as a tree that is truly set up.

And His footsteps stand firm on the water, and are not injured; they are as firm as a tree that is truly set up.

And the waves were lifted up on this side and on that, but the footsteps of our Lord Messiah stand firm and are not obliterated and are not defaced.

And the waves were lifted up on this side and on that, but the footsteps of our Lord Messiah stand firm and are not obliterated and are not defaced.

And His inheritance is immortal life, and those who participate in it are incorrupt. Hallelujah.

All my persecutors are dead; and they sought after me who hoped in me, because I was alive:

For they are free men and they are mine. Hallelujah.

For they are free men and they are mine. Hallelujah.

'Have you seen all that this people are doing to Me, that the evils which these two tribes which remained have done are greater than (those of) the ten tribes which were carried away captive?

'Have you seen all that this people are doing to Me, that the evils which these two tribes which remained have done are greater than (those of) the ten tribes which were carried away captive?

For I have said these things to you that you may bid Jeremiah, and all those that are like you, to retire from this city.

For your works are to this city as a firm pillar, And your prayers as a strong wall.'

And the Lord said unto me: 'My name and My glory are unto all eternity; And My judgment shall maintain its right in its own time.

And he spoke to the earth with a loud voice: 'Earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the mighty God, And receive what I commit to you, And guard them until the last times, So that, when you are ordered, you may restore them, So that strangers may not get possession of them.

Or why, again, should mankind have sons? Or why should the seed of their kind again be named, Where this mother is desolate, And her sons are led into captivity?

Moreover, (you priests) take you the keys of the sanctuary, And cast them into the height of heaven, And give them to the Lord and say: "Guard Your house Thyself, For lo! we are found false stewards.

But now, lo! the grief is infinite, And the lamentation measureless, For lo! you are prospered And Zion desolate.

"Blessed are you more than we who live."

But now, you peoples and nations, you are guilty Because you have always trodden down the earth, And used the creation unrighteously.

And now I know that those who have sinned are many, and they have lived in prosperity,' and departed from the world, but the few nations will be left in those times, to whom those words shall he said which you did say.

For what advantage is there in this, or what (evil), worse than what' we have seen befall us, are we to expect to see?

Or who will be able to think out Your incomprehensible counsel? Or who of those that are born has ever found The beginning or end of Your wisdom?

But as for us-woe to us, who also are now shamefully entreated, and at that time look forward (only) to evils.

But you know accurately what you have done by means of Your servants; for we are not able to understand that which is good as you art, our Creator.

And the Lord answered and said unto me: 'You are rightly astonished regarding the departure of man, but you have not judged well regarding the evils which befall those who sin.

And as regards what you have said, that the righteous are carried off and the impious are prospered,

And as regards what you have said, that the righteous are carried off and the impious are prospered,

And I answered and said: 'O LORD, my Lord, lo! the years of this time are few and evil, and who is able in his little time to acquire that which is measureless?'

And I answered and said: 'He that lighted has taken from the light, and there are but few that have imitated him. But those many whom he has lighted have taken from the darkness of Adam and have not rejoiced in the light of the lamp.'

'Therefore, behold! the days come, And the times shall hasten more than the former, And the seasons shall speed on more than those that are past, And the years shall pass more quickly than the present (years).

And then I will show you the judgment of My might, And My ways which are unsearchable.

And afterwards come to that place and I will reveal Myself to you, and speak true things with you, and I will give you commandment regarding the method of the times; for they are coming and tarry not.'

You that have commanded the air by Your nod, and have seen those things which are to be as those things which you are doing.

You that have commanded the air by Your nod, and have seen those things which are to be as those things which you are doing.

For you alone are able to sustain all who are, and those who have passed away, and those who are to be, those who sin, and those who are to righteous [as living (and) being past finding out].

For what we were formerly now we no longer are and what we now are we shall not afterwards remain.

For what we were formerly now we no longer are and what we now are we shall not afterwards remain.

And reprove accordingly the angel of death, and let Your glory appear, and let the might of Your beauty be known, and let Sheol be sealed so that from this time forward it may not receive the dead, and let the treasuries of souls restore those which are enclosed in them.

For there have been many years like those that are desolate from the days of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and of all those who are like them, who sleep in the earth, on whose account you did say that you had created the world.

For there have been many years like those that are desolate from the days of Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, and of all those who are like them, who sleep in the earth, on whose account you did say that you had created the world.

Baruch, Baruch, why are you troubled?

And He answered and said unto me: 'Why therefore are you troubled about that which you know not, and why are you ill at ease about things in which you are ignorant?

And He answered and said unto me: 'Why therefore are you troubled about that which you know not, and why are you ill at ease about things in which you are ignorant?

And He answered and said unto me: 'Why therefore are you troubled about that which you know not, and why are you ill at ease about things in which you are ignorant?

For as you have not forgotten the people who now are and those who have passed away, so I remember those who are appointed to come.

For as you have not forgotten the people who now are and those who have passed away, so I remember those who are appointed to come.

And again it is given to you to hear what things are to come after these times.

'For behold! the days come and the books shall be opened in which are written the sins of all those who have sinned, and again also the treasuries in which the righteousness of all those who have been righteous in creation is gathered.

For it shall come to pass at that time that you shall see-and the many that are with you-the long-suffering of the Most High, which has been throughout all generations, who has been long-suffering towards all who are born, (alike) those who sin and (those who) are righteous.'

For it shall come to pass at that time that you shall see-and the many that are with you-the long-suffering of the Most High, which has been throughout all generations, who has been long-suffering towards all who are born, (alike) those who sin and (those who) are righteous.'

And I answered and said: 'But, behold! O Lord, no one knowsthe number of those things which have passed nor yet of those things which are to come.

For these parts of that time are reserved, and shall be mingled one with another and minister one to another.

For some shall leave out some of their own, and receive (in its stead) from others, and some complete their own and that of others, so that those may not understand who are upon the earth in those days that this is the consummation of the times.

For the measure and reckoning of that time are two parts a week of seven weeks.'

Will he who is incorruptible despise those things which are corruptible, and whatever befalls in the case of those things which are corruptible, so that he might look only to those things which are not corruptible?]

Will he who is incorruptible despise those things which are corruptible, and whatever befalls in the case of those things which are corruptible, so that he might look only to those things which are not corruptible?]

Will he who is incorruptible despise those things which are corruptible, and whatever befalls in the case of those things which are corruptible, so that he might look only to those things which are not corruptible?]

Is it in one place or in one of the parts of the earth that those things are come to pass, or will the whole earth experience (them) ?'

For at that time I will protect only those who are found in those self-same days in this land.

And Behemoth shall be revealed from his place and Leviathan shall ascend from the sea, those two great monsters which I created on the fifth day of creation, and shall have kept until that time; and then they shall be for food for all that are left.

And it shall come to pass at that self-same time that the treasury of manna shall again descend from on high, and they will eat of it in those years, because these are they who have come to the consummation of time.

To where are you departing from us, Baruch, and are you forsaking us as a father who forsakes his orphan children, and departs from them?

To where are you departing from us, Baruch, and are you forsaking us as a father who forsakes his orphan children, and departs from them?

'Are these the commands which your companion, Jeremiah the prophet, commanded you, and said unto you:

And I prayed and said: 'O LORD, my Lord, you do always enlighten those who are led by understanding.

And by it the truth will be hidden, and all those who are polluted with iniquity will flee to it, as evil beasts flee and creep into the forest.

And his principate will stand for ever, until the world of corruption is at an end, and until the times aforesaid are fulfilled.

But, do thou, Baruch, direct your heart to that which has been said to you, And understand those things which have been shown to you; For there are many eternal consolations for you.

For you shall depart from this place, And you shall pass from the regions which are now seen by you, And you shall forget whatever is corruptible, And shall not again recall those things which happen among mortals.

For the judgment of the Mighty One shall (thereby) be made known, And His ways, which, though past finding out, are right.

For these are they who shall inherit that time which has been spoken of, And theirs is the inheritance of the promised time.

These are they who have acquired for themselves treasures of wisdom, And with them are found stores of understanding, And from mercy have they not withdrawn, And the truth of the law I have they preserved.

These are they who have acquired for themselves treasures of wisdom, And with them are found stores of understanding, And from mercy have they not withdrawn, And the truth of the law I have they preserved.

For to them shall be given the world to come, But the dwelling of the rest who are many shall be in the fire.'

'Do you therefore so far as you are able instruct the people, for that labor is ours.

And truly we shall be in darkness, And there shall be no light to the people who are left,

But only prepare you your hearts, that you may obey the law, And be subject to those who in fear are wise and understanding; And prepare your souls that you may not depart from them.

You care for the number which pass away that they may be preserved, And you prepare an abode for those that are to be.

For in a little time are we born, And in a little time do we return.

But with you hours are as a time, And days as generations.

And take not account of our works; For what are we? For lo! by Your gift do we come into the world, And we depart not of our own will.

What therefore is our strength that we should bear Your wrath, Or what are we that we should endure Your judgment?

Behold the little ones that are subject unto you, And save all that draw near unto you: And destroy not the hope of our people, And cut not short the times of our aid.

For this is the nation which you have chosen, And these are the people, to whom you find no equal.

[To all time are we blessed at all events in this that we have not mingled with the Gentiles.]

For we are all one celebrated people, Who have received one law from One: And the law which is amongst us will aid us, And the surpassing wisdom which is in us will help us.'

And whilst they are meditating these things, Then envy shall arise in those who had not thought aught of themselves (?) And passion shall seize him that is peaceful, And many shall be stirred up in anger to injure many, And they shall rouse up armies in order to shed blood, And in the end they shall perish together with them.

And I answered and said: 'O Adam, what have you done to all those who are born from you? And what will be said to the first Eve who hearkened to the serpent?

For all this multitude are going to corruption, Nor is there any numbering of those whom the fire devours.

For you did of old command the dust to produce Adam, and you know the number of those who are born from him, and how far they have sinned before you, who have existed and not confessed you as their Creator.

"In what shape will those live who live in Your day? Or how will the splendor of those who (are) after that time continue?

Will they then resume this form of the present, And put on these entrammelling members, Which are now involved in evils, And in which evils are consummated, Or will you perchance change these things which have been in the world As also the world?"

Will they then resume this form of the present, And put on these entrammelling members, Which are now involved in evils, And in which evils are consummated, Or will you perchance change these things which have been in the world As also the world?"

And it shall come to pass, when that appointed day has gone by, that then shall the aspect of those who are condemned be afterwards changed, and the glory of those who are justified.
