Chapter 5: The Watchers' Punishment Continued

And in those days the word of the Lord came unto me, and he said: 'Go, say to the Watchers of heaven, who have left the high heaven, the holy eternal place, and have defiled themselves with women, and done as the children of earth do, and have taken unto them wives.'

'Ye have wrought great destruction on the earth: And ye shall have no peace nor forgiveness of sin: and inasmuch as they delight themselves through their children, the murder of their beloved ones shall they witness, and over the destruction of their children shall they lament, and petition for ever; but their petition shall not be granted unto them.'

And Enoch said: 'The watchers indeed waited for me on the walls; and all their evil deeds and cruelties were recounted in my presence.'

'Now therefore know that all their secret things, and all their sins are written and sealed in the high heavens: for all their works are done in unrighteousness, and their unrighteousness is complete.'

'Corruption has increased, crime has grown, injustice has been multiplied on the earth: violence, murders, and all manner of iniquity have become widespread.'

'Therefore I swear to you by the Holy One that speedily and without delay the judgment shall come upon all the dwellers on the earth for their evil deeds.'
