Book of Enoch


iconChapter - 8

1Then Uriel said, Here the angels, who cohabited with women, appointed their leaders;
2And assuming many forms they made men profane, and caused them to err; so that they sacrificed to devils as to gods.
3For in the great day there shall be a judgment, with which they shall be judged, until they are consumed; and their wives also shall be judged, who led astray the angels of heaven that they might salute them.
4And I, Enoch, I alone saw the likeness of the end of all things.
5Nor did any human being see it, as I saw it.
6These are the names of the angels who watch.
7Uriel, one of the holy angels, who presides over clamor and terror.
8Raphael, one of the holy angels, who presides over the spirits of men.
9Raguel, one of the holy angels, who inflicts punishment on the world and the luminaries.
10Michael, one of the holy angels, who, presiding over human virtue, commands the nations.
11Sarakiel, one of the holy angels, who presides over the spirits of the children of men that transgress.
12Gabriel, one of the holy angels, who presides over Ikisat, (the serpents) over paradise, and over the cherubim.
