1 Book of Enoch 24

1 ⌈⌈And from thence I went to another place of the earthβŒ‰βŒ‰, and he showed me a mountain range of fire which burnt ⌈⌈day and nightβŒ‰βŒ‰.

2 And I went beyond it and saw seven magnificent mountains all differing each from the other, and the stones (thereof) were magnificent and beautiful, magnificent as a whole, of glorious appearance and fair exterior: ⌈⌈three towardsβŒ‰βŒ‰ the east, ⌈⌈oneβŒ‰βŒ‰ founded on the other, and three towards the south, one upon the other, and deep rough ravines, no one of which joined with any other.

3 And the seventh mountain was in the midst of these, and it excelled them in height, resembling the seat of a throne: and fragrant trees encircled the throne.

4 And amongst them was a tree such as I had never yet smelt, neither was any amongst them nor were others like it: it had a fragrance beyond all fragrance, and its leaves and blooms and wood wither not for ever: and its fruit ⌈⌈is beautiful, and its fruitβŒ‰βŒ‰ resembles the dates of a palm.

5 Then I said: '⌈HowβŒ‰ beautiful is this tree, and fragrant, and its leaves are fair, and its blooms ⌈⌈veryβŒ‰βŒ‰ delightful in appearance.'

6 Then answered Michael, one of the holy ⌈⌈and honouredβŒ‰βŒ‰ angels who was with me, and was their leader. Next: Chapter XXV
