1 And there I saw One who had a head of days, and His head was white like wool, and with Him was another Being whose face had the appearance of a man, and His face was full of favour, like one of the qodesh messangers.
2 And I asked the messenger who went with me and showed me all the hidden matters, concerning the Bĕn of Aḏam, who He was, and where He was, why He went with the Head of Days. And he answered and said to me,
3 “This is the Bĕn of Aḏam who has righteousness, with whom dwelt righteousness, and who revealed all the treasures of that which is hidden, because 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts has chosen Him, and whose lot has the preeminence before 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts in uprightness forever.
4 “And this Bĕn of Aḏam whom you have seen shall raise up the sovereigns and the mighty from their thrones, and shall loosen the kidneys of the strong, and break the teeth of the sinners.
5 “And He shall put down the sovereigns from their thrones and reigns because they do not exalt and praise Him, nor humbly acknowledge where the reign was bestowed upon them.
6 “And He shall put down the pride of the strong, and shall fill them with shame. And darkness shall be their dwelling, and worms shall be their bed, and they shall have no expectancy of rising from their beds, because they do not exalt the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts.
7 “And these are they who judge the stars of the shamayim, and raise their hands against the Most High, and tread upon the earth and dwell upon it. And all their deeds manifest unrighteousness, and their power rests upon their riches, and their belief is in the mighty ones which they have made with their hands, and they deny the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts,
8 “And they persecute the houses of His congregations, and the trustworthy who hang upon the Name of 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 of hosts.”
