The Book of Enoch (R. H. Charles, 1917)
1ወበእማንቱ፡ መዋዕል፡ ያስተበቍዑ፡ ነገሥት፡ አዚዛን፡ እለ፡ ይእኅዝዋ፡ ለየብስ፡ እመላእክተ፡ መቅሠፍቱ፡ በኀበ፡ ሀለዉ፡ ምጥዋነ፡ ከመ፡ የሀብዎሙ፡ ዕረፍተ፡ ንስቲተ፡ ወከመ፡ ይደቁ፡ ወይስግዱ፡ በቅድመ፡ እግዚአ፡ መናፍስት፡ ወይትአመኑ፡ ኀጢአቶሙ፡ በቅድሜሁ።
1In those days shall the mighty and the kings who possess the earth implore (Him) to grant them a little respite from His angels of punishment to whom they were delivered, that they might fall down and worship before the Lord of Spirits, and confess their sins before Him.
2ወይባርክዎ፡ ወይሴብሕዎ፡ ለእግዚአ፡ መናፍስት፡ ወይብሉ፡ ቡሩክ፡ ውእቱ፡ እግዚእ፡ እግዚአ፡ መናፍስት፡ ወእግዚአ፡ ነገሥት፡ እግዚኦሙ፡ ለአዚዛን፡ ወእግዚኡ፡ ለባዕል፡ ወእግዚአ፡ ስብሐት፡ ወእግዚአ፡ ጥበብ፡ ወይበርህ፡ ቦቱ፡ ኵሉ፡ ኅቡእ።
2And they shall bless and glorify the Lord of Spirits, and say: ‘Blessed is the Lord of Spirits and the Lord of kings, And the Lord of the mighty and the Lord of the rich, And the Lord of glory and the Lord of wisdom;
3ኀይልከ፡ ለትውልደ፡ ትውልድ፡ ወስብሐቲከ፡ ለዓለመ፡ ዓለም፡ ዕሙቅ፡ ውእቱ፡ ኅቡኣተ፡ ዚኣከ፡ ኵሉ፡ ወኍልቊ፡ አልቦ፡ ወለጽድቀ፡ ዚኣከ፡ ሐሳብ፡ አልቦ።
3And splendid in every secret thing is Thy power from generation to generation, And Thy glory for ever and ever: Deep are all Thy secrets and innumerable, And Thy righteousness is beyond reckoning.
4ይእዜ፡ አእመርነ፡ ከመ፡ ንሰብሕ፡ ወንባርክ፡ ለእግዚአ፡ ነገሥት፡ ወለዘይነግሥ፡ ዲበ፡ ኵሎሙ፡ ነገሥት።
4We have now learnt that we should glorify And bless the Lord of kings and Him who is King over all kings.’
5ወይቤሉ፡ መኑ፡ እምወሀበነ፡ ዕረፍተ፡ ከመ፡ ንሰብሖ፡ ወናእኵትቶ፡ ወንባርኮ፡ ወንእመን፡ ስብሐቲሁ።
5And they shall say: ‘Would that we had rest to glorify and give thanks And confess our faith before His glory!
6ወይእዜኒ፡ ንስቲተ፡ ዕረፍተ፡ ንትሜነይ፡ ወኢንረክብ፡ ንሰደድ፡ ወኢንእኅዝ፡ ወብርሃን፡ እምቅድሜነ፡ ኀለፈ፡ ወጽልመት፡ ምንባሪነ፡ ለዓለመ፡ ዓለም።
6And now we long for a little rest, but find it not: We follow hard upon (it) and obtain (it) not: And light has vanished from before us, And darkness is our dwelling-place for ever and ever:
7እስመ፡ በቅድሜሁ፡ ኢአመነ፡ ወኢሰባሕነ፡ በስሙ፡ ለእግዚአ፡ ነገሥት፡ ወኢሰባሕናሁ፡ ለእግዚእ፡ በኵሉ፡ ተግባሩ፡ ወተስፋነ፡ ኮነ፡ ዲበ፡ በትረ፡ መንበረ፡ መንግሥትነ፡ ወስብሐቲነ።
7For we have not believed before Him, Nor glorified the name of the Lord of Spirits, [nor glorified our Lord] But our hope was in the sceptre of our kingdom, And in our glory.
8በዕለተ፡ ሥራሕነ፡ ወምንዳቤነ፡ ኢያድኅነነ፡ ወኢንረክብ፡ ዕረፍተ፡ ንእመን፡ እስመ፡ መሃይምን፡ ውእቱ፡ እግዚእነ፡ በኵሉ፡ ምግባሩ፡ ወበኵሉ፡ ኵነኔሁ፡ ወጽድቁ፡ ወገጸ፡ ኵነኔሁ፡ ኢይነሥኡ።
8And in the day of our suffering and tribulation He saves us not, And we find no respite for confession, That our Lord is true in all His works, and in His judgements and His justice; And His judgements have no respect of persons.
9ወነኀልፍ፡ እምቅድመ፡ ገጹ፡ በእንተ፡ ምግባሪነ፡ ወኵሉ፡ ኀጢአትነ፡ በጽድቅ፡ ተኈለቈ።
9And we pass away from before His face on account of our works, And all our sins are reckoned up in righteousness.’
10ወይእዜኒ፡ ይብልዎሙ፡ ትጽገብ፡ ነፍሰነ፡ እምንዋየ፡ ዐመፃ፡ ወኢትከልእ፡ ወሪዶተነ፡ እምላህባ፡ ለክበደ፡ ሲኦል።
10Now they will say unto themselves: ‘Our souls are full of unrighteous gain, but it does not prevent us from descending from the midst thereof into the †burden† of Sheol.’
11ወእምድኅረ፡ ዝ፡ ይመልእ፡ ገጾሙ፡ ጽልመተ፡ ወኀፍረተ፡ በቅድመ፡ ዝኩ፡ ወልደ፡ ዕጓለ፡ እመሕያው፡ ወእምቅድመ፡ ገጹ፡ ይሰደዱ፡ ወሰይፍ፡ የኀድር፡ ቅድመ፡ ገጹ፡ ማእከሎሙ።
11And after that their faces shall be filled with darkness And shame before that Son of Man, And they shall be driven from his presence, And the sword shall abide before his face in their midst.
12ወከመ፡ ዝ፡ ይቤ፡ እግዚአ፡ መናፍስት፡ ዝንቱ፡ ውእቱ፡ ሥርዐቶሙ፡ ወኵነኔሆሙ፡ ለአዚዛን፡ ወለነገሥት፡ ወለልዑላን፡ ወለእለ፡ ይእኅዝዋ፡ ለየብስ፡ በቅድመ፡ እግዚአ፡ መናፍስት።
12Thus spake the Lord of Spirits: ‘This is the ordinance and judgement with respect to the mighty and the kings and the exalted and those who possess the earth before the Lord of Spirits.’
