4. And behold the Watchers called me Enoch the scribe.

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.

6. And have done as the sons of men do, by taking to themselves wives,

and _who_ have been greatly corrupted on the earth;

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.
