Chapter 12: The Parables of the Righteous

And after this Enoch spake, saying: 'I say unto you, my children, hear the words of your father, and turn aside from the works of iniquity.'

'For the judgment of the Lord is upon all the dwellers on the earth, and the doom has been sealed by the Holy One.'

'The righteous shall be vindicated, and the wicked shall be cast into darkness, where they shall weep and wail.'

'Therefore, keep the commandments of God, and walk in His ways, that ye may inherit the kingdom of heaven.'

'For blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.'

'Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.'

'Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.'

'Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God.'

'Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.'

'Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.'
