1 Enoch (Ethiopic Book of Enoch)
1And I saw another course, a law for her, (and) how according to that law she performs her monthly revolution.
1ወካልአ፡ ምሕዋረ፡ ወትእዛዘ፡ ርኢኩ፡ ሎቱ፡ እንተ፡ በውእቱ፡ ትእዛዝ፡ ይገብር፡ ምሕዋሮ፡ ዘአውራኅ።
2And all these Uriel, the holy angel who is the leader of them all, showed to me, and their positions, and I wrote down their positions as he showed them to me, and I wrote down their months as they were, and the appearance of their lights till fifteen days were accomplished.
2ወኵሎ፡ አርአየኒ፡ ኡርኤል፡ መልአክ፡ ቅዱስ፡ ዘውእቱ፡ መራሒሆሙ፡ ለኵሎሙ፡ ወምንባሪሆሙ፡ ጸሐፍኩ፡ በከመ፡ አርአየኒ፡ ወጸሐፍኩ፡ አውራኂሆሙ፡ በከመ፡ ሀለዉ፡ ወርእየተ፡ ብርሃኖሙ፡ እስከ፡ ተፈጸመ፡ ዐሠርቱ፡ ወኀምስቱ፡ መዋዕል።
3In single seventh parts she accomplishes all her light in the east, and in single seventh parts accomplishes all her darkness in the west.
3በአሐዱ፡ ሰብዐተ፡ ሰብዐተ፡ እደ፡ ይፌጽም፡ ኵሎ፡ ብርሃኖ፡ በምሥራቅ፡ ወበበ፡ ሰብዐቱ፡ ሰብዐቱ፡ እድ፡ ይፌጽም፡ ኵሎ፡ ጽልመቶ፡ በምዕራብ።
4And in certain months she alters her settings, and in certain months she pursues her own peculiar course.
4ወበአውራኅ፡ እሙራት፡ ይፌጽም፡ ምዕራባቲሁ፡ ወበአውራኅ፡ እሙራት፡ የሐውር፡ ምሕዋሪሁ፡ አሐደ፡ አሐደ።
5In two months the moon sets with the sun in those two middle portals the third and the fourth.
5በክልኤቱ፡ ወርኅ፡ የዐርብ፡ ምስለ፡ ፀሓይ፡ በእሉ፡ ክልኤቱ፡ ኀዋኅው፡ እለ፡ በማእከል፡ በሣልስ፡ ወበራብዕ፡ ኆኅት።
6She goes forth for seven days, and turns about and returns again through the portal where the sun rises, and accomplishes all her light: and she recedes from the sun, and in eight days enters the sixth portal from which the sun goes forth.
6ይወፅእ፡ ሰብዐተ፡ መዋዕለ፡ ወየዐውድ፡ ወይገብእ፡ ካዕበ፡ በኆኅት፡ እንተ፡ ይወፅእ፡ ፀሓይ፡ ወበውእቱ፡ ይፌጽም፡ ኵሎ፡ ብርሃኖ፡ ወይጸንን፡ እምፀሓይ፡ ወይበውእ፡ ሰሙነ፡ መዋዕለ፡ በሳድስት፡ ኆኅት፡ እንተ፡ እምኔሃ፡ ይወፅእ፡ ፀሓይ።
7And when the sun goes forth from the fourth portal she goes forth seven days, until she goes forth from the fifth and turns back again in seven days into the fourth portal and accomplishes all her light: and she recedes and enters into the first portal in eight days.
7ወሶበ፡ ይወፅእ፡ ፀሓይ፡ እምራብዕት፡ ኆኅት፡ ይወፅእ፡ ሰቡዐ፡ መዋዕለ፡ እስከ፡ ይወፅእ፡ እምነ፡ ኀምስት፡ ወካዕበ፡ ይገብእ፡ ሰቡዐ፡ መዋዕለ፡ በኆኅት፡ ራብዕ፡ ወይፌጽም፡ ኵሎ፡ ብርሃኖ፡ ወይጸንን፡ ወይበውእ፡ በቀዳሚት፡ ኆኅት፡ ሰሙነ፡ መዋዕለ።
8And she returns again in seven days into the fourth portal from which the sun goes forth.
8ወካዕበ፡ ይገብእ፡ ሰቡዐ፡ መዋዕለ፡ በራብዕት፡ ኆኅት፡ እንተ፡ እምኔሃ፡ ይወፅእ፡ ፀሓይ።
9Thus I saw their position—how the moons rose and the sun set in those days.
9ወከመ፡ ዝ፡ ርኢኩ፡ ምንባሮሙ፡ በከመ፡ ሥርዐተ፡ አውራኂሆሙ፡ ይሠርቅ፡ ወየዐርብ፡ ፀሐይ።
10And if five years are added together the sun has an overplus of thirty days, and all the days which accrue to it for one of those five years, when they are full, amount to 364 days.
10ወበእማንቱ፡ መዋዕል፡ ኀምስቱ፡ ዓመት፡ ወይበጽሖ፡ ለፀሓይ፡ ሠላሳ፡ መዋዕል፡ ወኵሎሙ፡ መዋዕላት፡ ይበጽሕዎ፡ ለአሐዱ፡ ዓመት፡ እምእልኩ፡ ኀምስቱ፡ ዓመት፡ ተመሊኦሙ፡ ይከውኑ፡ ሠለስተ፡ ምእተ፡ ወስሳ፡ ወረቡዐ፡ መዋዕለ።
11And the overplus of the sun and of the stars amounts to six days: in 5 years 6 days every year come to 30 days: and the moon falls behind the sun and stars to the number of 30 days.
11ወይበጽሕ፡ ምብጻሒሆሙ፡ ለፀሓይ፡ ወለከዋክብት፡ ስሱ፡ መዋዕል፡ እምኀምስቱ፡ ዓመታት፡ በበ፡ ስሱ፡ ይበጽሖሙ፡ ሠላሳ፡ ዕለት፡ ወየሐጽጽ፡ ወርኅ፡ እምፀሓይ፡ ወእምከዋክብት፡ ሠላሳ፡ መዋዕለ።
12And the sun and the stars bring in all the years exactly, so that they do not advance or delay their position by a single day unto eternity; but complete the years with perfect justice in 364 days.
12ወወርኅ፡ ያመጽኦሙ፡ ለዓመታት፡ ጥንቁቀ፡ ወኵሎሙ፡ በከመ፡ ምንባሪሆሙ፡ ኢይበድሩ፡ ወኢይዴኀሩ፡ አሐተ፡ ዕለተ፡ አላ፡ ይዌልጡ፡ ዓመተ፡ በጽድቅ፡ ጥንቁቀ፡ በበ፡ ሠለስቱ፡ ምእት፡ ወስሳ፡ ወረቡዕ፡ መዋዕል።
13In 3 years there are 1092 days, and in 5 years 1820 days, so that in 8 years there are 2912 days.
13ለሠለስቱ፡ ዓመት፡ መዋዕሊሁ፡ ዐሠርቱ፡ ምእት፡ ወተስዓ፡ ወክልኤቱ፡ ወለኀምስቱ፡ ዓመት፡ መዋዕሊሁ፡ ዐሠርቱ፡ ወሰመንቱ፡ ምእት፡ ወዕሥራ፡ መዋዕል፡ ከመ፡ ይኩን፡ ለሰመንቱ፡ ዓመት፡ ዕሥራ፡ ወተስዓቱ፡ ምእት፡ ወዐሠርቱ፡ ወክልኤቱ፡ መዋዕልይ።
14For the moon alone the days amount in 3 years to 1062 days, and in 5 years she falls 50 days behind: [i. e. to the sum (of 1770) there is to be added (1000 and) 62 days].
14ለወርኅ፡ ለባሕቲቱ፡ ይበጽሕ፡ መዋዕሊሁ፡ ለሠለስቱ፡ ዓመት፡ ዐሠርቱ፡ ምእት፡ ወስሳ፡ ወክልኤቱ፡ መዋዕል፡ ወለኀምስቱ፡ ዓመት፡ የሐጽጽ፡ ኀምሳ፡ መዋዕለ፡ እስመ፡ ይትዌሰክ፡ በፀአቱ፡ ዲበ፡ ስሳ፡ ወክልኤቱ፡ መዋዕል።
15And in 5 years there are 1770 days, so that for the moon the days in 8 years amount to 2832 days.
15ወይከውን፡ ለኀምስቱ፡ ዓመት፡ ዐሠርቱ፡ ወሰብዐቱ፡ ምእት፡ ወሰብዓ፡ መዋዕል፡ ከመ፡ ይኩን፡ ለወርኅ፡ በሰመንቱ፡ ዓመት፡ መዋዕሊሁ፡ ዕሥራ፡ ምእት፡ ወሰመንቱ፡ ምእት፡ ሠላሳ፡ ወክልኤቱ፡ መዋዕል።
16[For in 8 years she falls behind to the amount of 80 days], all the days she falls behind in 8 years are 80.
16እስመ፡ ሕጸጹ፡ ለሰመንቱ፡ ዓመት፡ መዋዕሊሁ፡ ሰማንያ፡ ወኵሎሙ፡ መዋዕል፡ ዘሐጸ፡ እምሰመንቱ፡ ዓም፡ ሰማንያ።
17And the year is accurately completed in conformity with their world-stations and the stations of the sun, which rise from the portals through which it (the sun) rises and sets 30 days.
17ወይትፌጸም፡ ዓመት፡ በጽድቅ፡ በከመ፡ መንበረ፡ ዚኣሆሙ፡ ወመንበረ፡ ፀሓይ፡ እለ፡ ይሠርቁ፡ እምነ፡ ኆኅት፡ እለ፡ እምኔሆሙ፡ ይሠርቅ፡ ወየዐርብ፡ መዋዕለ፡ ሠላሳ።
