Secrets of Enoch: Chapter LV

Here Enoch shows his sons, telling them with tears: 'My children, the hour has approached for me to go up on to heaven; behold, the angels are standing before me.'

1. MY children, behold, the day of my term and the time nave approached.

2. For the angels who shall go with me are standing before me and urge me to my departure from you; they are standing here on earth, awaiting what has been told them.

3. For to-morrow I shall go up on to heaven, to the uppermost Jerusalem to my eternal inheritance.

4. Therefore I bid you do before the Lord's face all his good pleasure.
