The Book of Enoch

27.1 Then I said: "What is the purpose of this blessed land, which is

completely full of trees, and of this accursed valley in the middle of them?"

27.2 Then Raphael, one of the Holy Angels who was with me, answered

me, and said to me: "This accursed valley, is for those who are cursed for

ever. Here will be gathered together all who speak with their mouths
against the Lord - words that are not fitting, and say hard things about His

Glory. Here they will gather them together, and here will be their place of
judgment.

27.3 And in the last days there will be the spectacle of the righteous
judgment upon them, in front of the righteous, forever. For here, the

merciful will bless the Lord of Glory the Eternal King.

27.4 And in the days of the judgment on them they will bless Him, on

account of his mercy, according as He has assigned to them their lot."

27.5 Then I myself blessed the Lord of Glory, I addressed Him, and I

remembered His majesty, as was fitting.

28.1 And from there, I went towards the east, to the middle of the mountain

of the wilderness, and I saw only desert.

28.2 But it was full of trees from this seed and water gushed out over it

from above.

28.3 The torrent, which flowed towards the northwest, seemed copious, and

from all sides, there went up spray and mist.

29.1 And I went to another place, away from the wilderness; I came near to

the east of this mountain.

29.2 And there I saw Trees of Judgment, especially vessels of the fragrance

of incense and myrrh, and the trees were not alike.

30.1 And above it, above these, above the mountains of the east, and not far

away, I saw another place, valleys of water, like that which does not fail.

30.2 And I saw a beautiful tree, and its fragrance was like that of the

mastic.
