1 And it came to be after this, that my spirit was translated and it ascended into the shamayim: and I saw the qodesh sons of Elohim. They were stepping on flames of fire: their garments were white and their faces shone like snow.
2 And I saw two streams of fire, and the light of that fire shone like jacinth, and I fell on my face before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts.
3 And the messenger Miḵa’ĕl seized me by my right hand, and lifted me up and led me forth into all the secrets, and he showed me all the secrets of righteousness.
4 And he showed me all the secrets of the ends of the shamayim, and all the chambers of all the stars, and all the lights, where they proceed before the face of the qodeshim.
5 And he translated my spirit into the shamayim of shamayim, and I saw there as it were, a structure built of crystals, and between those crystals – tongues of living fire.
6 And my spirit saw the girdle which surrounded that house of fire, and on its four sides were streams full of living fire, and they surrounded that house.
7 And round about were seraphim, keruḇim, and ophannim: and these are they who do not sleep but guard the throne of His esteem.
8 And I saw messengers who could not be counted, a thousand thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand, encircling that house. And Miḵa’ĕl, and Repha’ĕl, and Gaḇri’ĕl, and Phanu’ĕl, and the qodesh messengers who are above the shamayim, go in and out of that house.
9 And they came forth from that house, and Miḵa’ĕl and Gaḇri’ĕl, Repha’ĕl and Phanu’ĕl, and many qodesh messengers without number.
10 And with them the Head of Days, His head white and pure as wool, and His garments indescribable.
11 And I fell on my face, and my whole body became relaxed, and my spirit was transfigured; and I cried with a loud voice, with the spirit of power, and baraḵ and esteemed and exalted.
12 And these bireḵoth which went forth out of my mouth were well pleasing before that Head of Days.
13 And that Head of Days came with Miḵa’ĕl and Gaḇri’ĕl, Repha’ĕl and Phanu’ĕl, thousands and ten thousands of messengers without number.
14 And he came to me and greeted me with his voice, and said to me, “This is the Bĕn of Aḏam who is born unto righteousness, and righteousness abides over Him, and the righteousness of the Head of Days does not forsake Him.
15 And he said to me, “He proclaims unto you peace in the name of the world to come. For from here has proceeded peace since the creation of the world, and so shall it be unto you forever and forever and ever.
16 “And all shall walk in His ways since righteousness never forsakes Him. With Him will be their dwelling-places, and with Him their heritage, and they shall not be separated from Him forever and ever and ever.
17 “And so there shall be length of days with the Bĕn of Aḏam, and the righteous shall have peace and an upright Way in the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts forever and ever.”
