1 Enoch (Ethiopic Book of Enoch)
1From thence I went to another place to the west of the ends of the earth.
1ወእምህየ፡ ርኢኩ፡ ካልአ፡ መካነ፡ መንገለ፡ ዐረብ፡ እስከ፡ አጽናፈ፡ ምድር።
2And I saw a 〚burning〛 fire which ran without resting, and paused not from its course day or night but (ran) regularly.
2ወርኢኩ፡ እሳተ፡ ዘይነድድ፡ ወይረውጽ፡ እንዘ፡ ኢየዐርፍ፡ ወኢይነትግ፡ እምሩጸቱ፡ መዓልተ፡ ወሌሊተ፡ አላ፡ ከማሁ፡ ክመ።
3And I asked saying: ‘What is this which rests not?’
3ወተስእልኩ፡ እንዘ፡ እብል፡ ዝንቱ፡ ምንት፡ ውእቱ፡ ዘአልቦ፡ ዕረፍት።
4Then Raguel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered me 〚and said unto me〛: ‘This course ⌜of fire⌝ 〚which thou hast seen〛 is the fire in the west which †persecutes† all the luminaries of heaven.’
4ውእተ፡ ጊዜ፡ አውሥአኒ፡ ራጉኤል፡ አሐዱ፡ እመላእክት፡ ቅዱሳን፡ ዘሀሎ፡ ምስሌየ፡ ወይቤለኒ፡ ዝንቱ፡ ዘርኢከ፡ ሩጸተ፡ ዘመንገለ፡ ዐረብ፡ እሳት፡ ዘይነድድ፡ ውእቱ፡ ኵሉ፡ ብርሃናተ፡ ሰማይ።
