[[SECT. III.]]
[1]Before all these things Enoch was concealed; nor did any one of the sons of men know where he was concealed, where he had been, and what had happened. [No book]
[2]He was wholly engaged with the holy ones, and with the Watchers in his days. [No book]
[3]I, Enoch, was blessing the great Lord and King of peace. [No book]
[4]And behold the Watchers called me Enoch the scribe. [No book]
[5]Then the Lord said to me: Enoch, scribe of righteousness, go tell the Watchers of heaven, who have deserted the lofty sky, and their holy everlasting station, who have been polluted with women. [No book]
[6]And have done as the sons of men do, by taking to themselves wives, and who have been greatly corrupted on the earth; [No book]
[7]That on the earth they shall never obtain peace and remission of sin. For they shall not rejoice in their offspring; they shall behold the slaughter of their beloved; shall lament for the destruction of their sons; and shall petition for ever; but shall not obtain mercy and peace. [No book]
