My LORD’s Bible1 Enoch 91
1And now, my son Mathusala, call to me all thy brethren, and assemble for me all the children of thy mother; for a voice calls me, and the spirit is poured out upon me, that I may show you everything which shall happen to you for ever.
2Then Mathusala went, called to him all his brethren, and assembled his kindred.
3And conversing with all his children in truth,
4_Enoch_ said, Hear, my children, every word of your father, and listen in uprightness to the voice of my mouth; for I would gain your attention, while I address you. My beloved, be attached to integrity, and walk in it.
5Approach not integrity with a double heart; nor be associated with double-minded men: but walk, my children, in righteousness, which will conduct you in good paths; and be truth your companion.
6For I know, that oppression will exist and prevail on earth; that on earth great punishment shall in the end take place; and that there shall be a consummation of all iniquity, which shall be cut off from its root, and every fabric _raised by_ it shall pass away. Iniquity, however, shall again be renewed, and consummated on earth. Every act of crime, and every act of oppression and impiety, shall be a second time embraced.
7When therefore iniquity, sin, blasphemy, tyranny, and every _evil_ work, shall increase, and _when_ transgression, impiety, and uncleanness also shall increase, _then_ upon them all shall great punishment be inflicted from heaven.
8The holy Lord shall go forth in wrath, and upon them all shall great punishment from heaven be inflicted.
9The holy Lord shall go forth in wrath, and with punishment, that he may execute judgment upon earth.
10In those days oppression shall be cut off from its roots, and iniquity with fraud shall be eradicated, perishing from under heaven.
11Every place of strength shall be surrendered with its inhabitants; with fire shall it be burnt. They shall be brought from every part of the earth, and be cast into a judgment of fire. They shall perish in wrath, and by a judgment overpowering them for ever.
12Righteousness shall be raised up from slumber; and wisdom shall be raised up, and conferred upon them.
13Then shall the roots of iniquity be cut off; sinners perish by the sword; and blasphemers be annihilated everywhere.
14Those who meditate oppression, and those who blaspheme, by the sword shall perish.
15And now, my children, I will describe and point out to you the path of righteousness and the path of oppression.
16I will again point them out to you, that you may know what is to come.
17Here now, my children, and walk in the path of righteousness, but shun that of oppression; for all who walk in the path of iniquity shall perish for ever.
