During that period the day is lengthened from the day, and the night curtailed from the night for thirty days. And then the day is longer by two parts than the night.

During that period the day is lengthened from the day, and the night curtailed from the night for thirty days. And then the day is longer by two parts than the night.

The day is precisely ten parts, and the night is eight.

The day is precisely ten parts, and the night is eight.

Then the day becomes lengthened by a second portion, so that it is eleven parts: while the night becomes shortened, and is only seven parts.

Then the day becomes lengthened by a second portion, so that it is eleven parts: while the night becomes shortened, and is only seven parts.

At that period the day is longer than the night, being twice _as long as_ the night; and becomes twelve parts;

But the night is shortened, and becomes six parts. Then the sun rises up, that the day may be shortened, and the night lengthened.

When that period is completed, the day becomes shortened precisely one part, so that it is eleven parts, while the night is seven parts.

When that period is completed, the day becomes shortened precisely one part, so that it is eleven parts, while the night is seven parts.

When that period is completed, the day becomes shortened precisely one part, so that it is eleven parts, while the night is seven parts.

At that period the day becomes shortened two parts; and is ten parts, while the night is eight parts.

At that period the day becomes shortened two parts; and is ten parts, while the night is eight parts.

At that period the day is made equal with the night; and, being equal with it, the night becomes nine parts, and the day nine parts.

At that period the night is lengthened from the day during thirty mornings, and the day is curtailed from the day during thirty days; the night being ten parts precisely, and the day eight parts.

At that period the night is lengthened from the day during thirty mornings, and the day is curtailed from the day during thirty days; the night being ten parts precisely, and the day eight parts.

At that period the night is eleven parts, and the day seven parts.

At that period the night is lengthened as much again as the day.

It is twelve parts precisely, while the day is six parts.

It is twelve parts precisely, while the day is six parts.

At that period the night is contracted in its length a fourth part, that is, one portion, and becomes eleven parts.

At that period the night is contracted in its length a fourth part, that is, one portion, and becomes eleven parts.

The day is seven parts.

At that period the night is contracted in its length. It becomes ten parts, and the day eight parts. Then the sun goes from that second gate, and sets in the west; but returns to the east, and rises in the east, in the third gate, thirty-one days, setting in the west of heaven.

At that period the night becomes shortened. It is nine parts. And the night is equal with the day. The year is precisely three hundred and sixty-four days.

At that period the night becomes shortened. It is nine parts. And the night is equal with the day. The year is precisely three hundred and sixty-four days.

At that period the night becomes shortened. It is nine parts. And the night is equal with the day. The year is precisely three hundred and sixty-four days.

By means of this progress the day is daily lengthened, and the night greatly shortened.

This is the law and progress of the sun, and its turning when it turns back, turning during sixty days, and going forth. This is the great everlasting luminary, that which he names the sun for ever and ever.

This is the law and progress of the sun, and its turning when it turns back, turning during sixty days, and going forth. This is the great everlasting luminary, that which he names the sun for ever and ever.

This also is that which goes forth a great luminary, and which is named after its peculiar kind, as God commanded.

After this law I beheld another law of an inferior luminary, the name of which is the moon, and the orb of which is as the orb of heaven.

Its chariot, _which_ it secretly ascends, the wind blows; and light is given to it by measure.

Every month at its exit and entrance it becomes changed; and its periods are as the periods of the sun. And when in like manner its light is to exist, its light is a seventh portion from the light of the sun.

Every month at its exit and entrance it becomes changed; and its periods are as the periods of the sun. And when in like manner its light is to exist, its light is a seventh portion from the light of the sun.

At that time it appears, and becomes to you the beginning of the month. Thirty days _it is_ with the sun in the gate from which the sun goes forth.

Half of it is in extent seven portions, one _half_; and the whole of its orb is void of light, except a seventh portion out of the fourteen portions of its light. And in a day it receives a seventh portion, or half _that portion_, of its light. Its light is by sevens, by one portion, and by the half _of a portion_. It sets with the sun.

And on that night it is dark _in_ its fourteen portions, that is, _in each_ half; but it rises on that day with one seventh portion precisely, and in its progress declines from the rising of the sun.

And on that night it is dark _in_ its fourteen portions, that is, _in each_ half; but it rises on that day with one seventh portion precisely, and in its progress declines from the rising of the sun.

I wrote down their months, as they occur, and the appearance of their light, until it is completed in fifteen days.

At those times there is an excess of thirty days belonging to the sun in five years; all the days belonging to each year of the five years, when completed, amount to three hundred and sixty-four days; and to the sun and stars belong six days; six days in each of the five years; _thus_ thirty days belong to them;

I saw likewise the chariots of heaven, running in the world above to those gates in which the stars turn, which never set. One of these is greater than all, which goes round the whole world.

From the third gate, which is westwards, proceed dew, rain, blight, and destruction.

After these are the winds to the north, which is called the sea. _They proceed_ from three gates. The first gate _is that_ which is on the east, inclining southwards; from this proceed dew, rain, blight, and destruction. From the middle direct gate proceed rain, dew, life, and health. And from the third gate, which is westwards, inclining towards the south, proceed mist, frost, snow, rain, dew, and blight.

And from the last gate, which is southwards, proceed drought, destruction, scorching, and perdition.

The _account of the_ twelve gates of the four quarters of heaven is ended.

The first wind is called the eastern, because it is the first.

The first wind is called the eastern, because it is the first.

The second is called the south, because the Most High there descends, and frequently there descends _he who_ is blessed for ever.

The second is called the south, because the Most High there descends, and frequently there descends _he who_ is blessed for ever.

The fourth wind, which is named the north, is divided into three parts; one of which is for the habitation of man; another for seas of water, with valleys, woods, rivers, shady places, and snow; and the third part _contains_ paradise.

Two come from the north to the sea, their waters flowing into the Erythræan sea, on the east. And with respect to the remaining four, they take their course in the cavity of the north, _two_ to their sea, the Erythræan sea, and two are poured into a great sea, where also it is said _there is_ a desert.

The moon has four names. The first is Asonya; the second, Ebla; the third, Benase; and the fourth, Erae.

In the orb of the sun _there is_ a seventh portion of light, which is added to it from the moon. By measure it is put in, until a seventh portion of _the light of_ the sun is departed. They set, enter into the western gate, circuit by the north, and through the eastern gate go forth over the face of heaven.

When the moon rises, it appears in heaven; and the half of a seventh portion of light is all _which is_ in it.

When the moon rises, it appears in heaven; and the half of a seventh portion of light is all _which is_ in it.

In fourteen _days_ the whole of its light is completed.

_By_ three quintuples light is put into it, until _in_ fifteen _days_ its light is completed, according to the signs of the year; it has three quintuples.

_By_ three quintuples light is put into it, until _in_ fifteen _days_ its light is completed, according to the signs of the year; it has three quintuples.

During its diminution on the first day its light decreases a fourteenth part; on the second day it decreases a thirteenth part; on the third day a twelfth part; on the fourth day an eleventh part; on the fifth day a tenth part; on the sixth day a ninth part; on the seventh day it decreases an eighth part; on the eighth day it decreases a seventh part; on the ninth day it decreases a sixth part; on the tenth day it decreases a fifth part; on the eleventh day it decreases a fourth part; on the twelfth day it decreases a third part; on the thirteenth day it decreases a second part; on the fourteenth day it decreases a half of its seventh part; and on the fifteenth day the whole remainder of its light is consumed.

Uriel likewise showed me another regulation, when light is poured into the moon, how it is poured into it from the sun.

Uriel likewise showed me another regulation, when light is poured into the moon, how it is poured into it from the sun.

All the time that the moon is in progress with its light, it is poured _into it_ in the presence of the sun, until _its_ light is in fourteen days completed in heaven.

All the time that the moon is in progress with its light, it is poured _into it_ in the presence of the sun, until _its_ light is in fourteen days completed in heaven.

And when it is wholly extinguished, its light is consumed in heaven; and on the first day it is called the new moon, for on that day light is received into it.

And when it is wholly extinguished, its light is consumed in heaven; and on the first day it is called the new moon, for on that day light is received into it.

And when it is wholly extinguished, its light is consumed in heaven; and on the first day it is called the new moon, for on that day light is received into it.

Where light comes to the moon, there again it decreases, until all its light is extinguished, and the days of the moon pass away.

In the night it appears for each twenty _days_ as _the face of_ a man, and in the day as heaven; for it is nothing else except its light.

And now, my son Mathusala, I have shown thee everything; and _the account of_ every ordinance of the stars of heaven is finished.

He showed me every ordinance respecting these, which _takes place_ at all times and in all seasons under every influence, in all years, at the arrival and under the rule of each, during every month and every week. _He showed me_ also the decrease of the moon, which is effected in the sixth gate; for in that sixth gate is its light consumed.

From this is the beginning of the month; and its decrease is effected in the sixth gate in its period, until a hundred and seventy-seven days are completed; according to the mode of computation by weeks, twenty-five _weeks_ and two days.

From this is the beginning of the month; and its decrease is effected in the sixth gate in its period, until a hundred and seventy-seven days are completed; according to the mode of computation by weeks, twenty-five _weeks_ and two days.

_Its period_ is less than that of the sun, according to the ordinance of the stars, by five days in one half year precisely.

When that _their_ visible situation is completed. Such is the appearance and likeness of every luminary, which Uriel, the great angel who conducts them, showed to me.

When that _their_ visible situation is completed. Such is the appearance and likeness of every luminary, which Uriel, the great angel who conducts them, showed to me.

He said, O Enoch, look on the book which heaven has gradually dropped down; and, reading that which is written in it, understand every part of it.

At that time I said, Blessed is the man, who shall die righteous and good, against whom no catalogue of crime has been written, and with whom iniquity is not found.

At that time I said, Blessed is the man, who shall die righteous and good, against whom no catalogue of crime has been written, and with whom iniquity is not found.

And they said unto me, Explain everything to Mathusala thy son; and inform all thy children, that no flesh shall be justified before the Lord; for he is their Creator.

Blessed are all the righteous; blessed all who walk in _the paths of_ righteousness; in whom no crime _is found_, as in sinners, when all their days are numbered.

So that the year is completed in three hundred and sixty-four days.

Truly has been stated, and accurately has been computed that which is marked down; for the luminaries, the months, the fixed periods, the years, and the days, Uriel has explained to me, and communicated to me; whom the Lord of all creation, on my account, commanded (according to the might of heaven, and the power which it possesses both by night and by day) to explain _the laws of_ light to man, of the sun, moon, and stars, and of all the powers of heaven, which are turned with their respective orbs.

This is the ordinance of the stars, which set in their places, in their seasons, in their periods, in their days, and in their months.
