Book of Noah


iconChapter - 3

1And Azazel taught men to make swords, and knives, and shields, and breastplates,
2and made known to them the metals of the earth and the art of working them,
3and bracelets, and ornaments,
4and the use of antimony, and the beautifying of the eyelids,
5and all kinds of costly stones, and all colouring tinctures.
6And there arose much godlessness, and they committed fornication,
7and they were led astray,
8and became corrupt in all their ways.
9Semjaza taught enchantments, and root-cuttings, '
10Armaros the resolving of enchantments,
11Baraqijal (taught) astrology,
12Kokabel the constellations,
13Ezeqeel the knowledge of the clouds,
14Araqiel the signs of the earth,
15Shamsiel the signs of the sun,
16and Sariel the course of the moon.
17And as men perished, they cried, and their cry went up to heaven .
