Chapter 14 40 And I took it, and drank: and when I had drunk of it, my heart uttered understanding, and wisdom grew in my breast, for my spirit strengthened my memory:41 And my mouth was opened, and shut no more.42 The Highest gave understanding unto the five men, and they wrote the wonderful visions of the night that were told, which they knew not: and they sat forty days, and they wrote in the day, and at night they ate bread.43 As for me. I spake in the day, and I held not my tongue by night.44 In forty days they wrote two hundred and four books.45 And it came to pass, when the forty days were filled, that the Highest spake, saying, The first that thou hast written publish openly, that the worthy and unworthy may read it:46 But keep the seventy last, that thou mayest deliver them only to such as be wise among the people:47 For in them is the spring of understanding, the fountain of wisdom, and the stream of knowledge.48 And I did so.

Chapter 15 1 Behold, speak thou in the ears of my people the words of prophecy, which I will put in thy mouth, saith the Lord:2 And cause them to be written in paper: for they are faithful and true.3 Fear not the imaginations against thee, let not the incredulity of them trouble thee, that speak against thee.4 For all the unfaithful shall die in their unfaithfulness.5 Behold, saith the Lord, I will bring plagues upon the world; the sword, famine, death, and destruction.6 For wickedness hath exceedingly polluted the whole earth, and their hurtful works are fulfilled.7 Therefore saith the Lord,8 I will hold my tongue no more as touching their wickedness, which they profanely commit, neither will I suffer them in those things, in which they wickedly exercise themselves: behold, the innocent and righteous blood crieth unto me, and the souls of the just complain continually.9 And therefore, saith the Lord, I will surely avenge them, and receive unto me all the innocent blood from among them.10 Behold, my people is led as a flock to the slaughter: I will not suffer them now to dwell in the land of Egypt:11 But I will bring them with a mighty hand and a stretched out arm, and smite Egypt with plagues, as before, and will destroy all the land thereof.12 Egypt shall mourn, and the foundation of it shall be smitten with the plague and punishment that God shall bring upon it.13 They that till the ground shall mourn: for their seeds shall fail through the blasting and hail, and with a fearful constellation.14 Woe to the world and them that dwell therein!
