ḤANOḴ 1

WATCHERS

1 The words of the beraḵah of Ḥanoḵ, with which he baraḵ the elect and righteous, who will be living in the day of tribulation, when all the wicked and unrighteous are to be removed.

2 And he took up his parable and said, “Ḥanoḵ a righteous man, whose eyes were opened by Elohim, saw the vision of the Qadosh One in the shamayim, which the messengers showed me. And from them I heard all matters, and from them I understood as I saw, but not for this generation, but for a distant one which is to come.”

3 Concerning the elect I said, and took up my parable concerning them, “The Qadosh Great One will come forth from His dwelling,

4 and the eternal Elohim will tread upon the earth, on Mount Sinai, and appear from His camp and appear in the strength of His might from the shamayim of shamayim.

5 “And all shall be smitten with fear and the watchers shall quake, and great fear and trembling shall seize them unto the ends of the earth.

6 “And the high mountains shall be shaken, and the high hills shall be made low, and shall melt like wax before the flame.

7 “And the earth shall be completely torn in pieces, and all that is upon the earth shall perish, and there shall be a judgment upon all.

8 “But with the righteous He will make peace. And will protect the elect, and compassion shall be upon them. And they shall all belong to Elohim, and they shall be prospered, and they shall all be baruḵ. And He will help them all, and light shall appear unto them, and He will make peace with them.

9 “And see! He comes with ten thousands of His qodeshim to execute judgment upon all, and to destroy all the wicked, and to convict all flesh of all the works of their wickedness which they have committed wickedly, and of all the harsh matters which wicked sinners have spoken against Him.
