UprightnessTeachings of Enoch to his sons,
|
Hear, ye sons of Enoch, all the words of your father, And hearken aright to the voice of my mouth; For I exhort you and say unto you, beloved: Love uprightness and walk therein. And draw not nigh to uprightness with a double heart, And associate not with those of a double heart, But walk in righteousness, my sons. And it shall guide you on good paths, And righteousness shall be your companion. .... [Book of Enoch 91:2-4] |
LORD to Noah :
| " Noah, thy lot has come up before Me, a lot without blame, a lot of love and uprightness. " [Fragment of Book of Noah, inside Book of Enoch 67:1] |
