Chapter 97: The Epistle - The Counsel of the Righteous
Epistle of Enoch
97:1
Now then, I say unto you, hear the words of the righteous, and walk ye in the ways of wisdom.
97:2
For wisdom is a light that shineth in the darkness, and it guideth those who follow it unto eternal life.
97:3
And those who despise wisdom shall be cast into the outer darkness, where there is weeping and gnashing of teeth.
97:4
But those who love wisdom shall be exalted in the presence of the Lord, and shall sit upon thrones of glory.
97:5
Therefore, I exhort you, seek wisdom with all your heart, and walk ye in the way of righteousness.
