1 Enoch Chapter 58
Previous Chapter -- Next Chapter -- Section

1 And I began to speak the third Parable concerning the righteous and elect.
2 Blessed are ye, ye righteous and elect,

   For glorious shall be your lot.

3 And the righteous shall be in the light of the sun.

   And the elect in the light of eternal life:

   The days of their life shall be unending,

   And the days of the holy without number.

4 And they shall seek the light and find righteousness with

      the Lord of Spirits:

   There shall be peace to the righteous in the name

      of the Eternal Lord.

5 And after this it shall be said to the holy in heaven

   That they should seek out the secrets of righteousness,

      the heritage of faith:

   For it has become bright as the sun upon earth,

   And the darkness is past.

6 And there shall be a light that never endeth,

   And to a limit (lit. ' number ') of days they shall not come,

   For the darkness shall first have been destroyed,

   [And the light established before the Lord of Spirits]

   And the light of uprightness established for ever before

      the Lord of Spirits.
