was fulfilled. Seth was 302, and Enos 200 and 8. In the 600th year, Adam, having repented, knew through a revelation the things concerning the Watchers and the flood and the things concerning repentance and the divine incarnation and the things concerning the prayers sent up to God each day and night hour from all creation through Uriel the archangel of repentance, as follows. In the first hour of the day, the first prayer is offered in heaven, the 2nd, the prayer of angels, the 3rd, the prayer of birds, the 4th, the prayer of cattle, the 5th, the prayer of beasts, the 6th, the presentation of angels and the judgment of all creation, the 7th, the entrance of angels to God and the exit of angels, the 8th, the praise and sacrifices of angels, the 9th, the supplication and worship of men, the 10th, the overseeing of the waters and the prayers of heavenly and earthly beings, the 11th, the confession and exultation of all, the 12th, the intercession of men for goodwill. In the 625th year, Kenan was born to Enos. This one, when he was 170 years old, begat Mahalalel. In the 707th year from Adam, Kenan took Maleth as his wife. In the 775th year, Kenan begat Mahalalel, being 170 years old. Mahalalel, when he was 165 years old, begat Jared, in the 960th year of the world. 11 In the 930th year Adam fell asleep, leaving behind 33 male sons and 27 daughters. He ruled the race of men for all the years of his life. In the same 930th year Cain also died, when his house fell upon him. For he himself had also killed Abel with stones. Therefore, when a year was completed after the death of Adam, he died. Seth ruled the people of that time after Adam. But two hundred Watchers from his race, in the first year of the cosmogony, when Jared was forty, and Seth himself 770, went astray and came down, and took for themselves wives from the daughters of men, and begot the giants of renown, as the scripture says. But since some speak against these things, I thought it good to set forth in order a few things concerning them, both from the first book of Enoch and from Moses himself and Peter the chief of the apostles. In the 960th year Mahalalel begat Jared. Jared, when he was 162 years old, begat Enoch in the 1122nd year of the world. The 40th year of Jared in the 1st of the world. From the first book of Enoch concerning the Watchers And it came to pass when the sons of men had multiplied that beautiful daughters were born to them, and the Watchers desired them and went astray after them. And they said to one another: Let us choose for ourselves wives from the daughters of the men of the earth. And Semiazas, their ruler, said to them: I fear that you will not wish to do this thing, and I alone shall be a debtor for a great sin. And they all answered him and said: Let us all swear an oath and bind one another with a curse not to turn away from this plan until we accomplish it. Then they all swore together and bound one another with a curse. And these were the 200 who came down in the days of Jared to the summit of Mount 12 Hermon, and they called the mountain Hermom, because they swore and bound one another with a curse upon it. And these are the names of their rulers: Semiazas their ruler, 2nd Atarkouph, 3rd Arakiel, 4th Chobabiel, 5th Horammame, 6th Ramiel, 7th Sampsik, 8th Zakiel, 9th Balkiel, 10th Azazel, 11th Pharmaros, 12th Amariel, 13th Anagemas, 14th Thausael, 15th Samiel, 16th Sarinas, 17th Eumiel, 18th Tyriel, 19th Ioumiel, 20th Sariel. These and all the rest, in the 1170th year of the world, took wives for themselves and began to defile themselves with them until the flood. And they bore to them three races: 1st, great giants. The giants begot the Napheleim, and to the Napheleim were born the Elioud. And they grew according to their greatness, and they taught themselves and their wives sorcery and incantations. First Azael, the tenth of the rulers, taught how to make swords and breastplates and every instrument of war and the metals of the earth and how they should work gold, and make them as ornaments for their wives, and the
