LI. Enoch instructs his Sons, not to hide their Treasures upon Earth, but bids them give Alms to the Needy.
LII. GOD instructs His faithful Servants how they are to praise His Name.
LIII. Let us not say that our father is with GOD, and will plead for us at the Day of Judgement, for I know that a father cannot help his son, nor a son a father.

LV. Here Enoch makes a Declaration to his Sons: and speaks to them with Tears: ‘My children, my Hour draws near, that I should go to Heaven. Lo! Angels stand before me!’

LXIV. How the Lord calls Enoch: the People take Counsel to go to kiss him in the Place called Achuzan.
LXV. Of the Exhortation of Enoch to his Sons.
LXVI. Enoch instructs his Sons, and all the Elders of the People: how with Fear and Trembling they ought to walk before the Lord, and serve Him alone, and not to worship Idols; for GOD made Heaven and Earth and every Creature and its form.
LXVII. The Lord sent a Darkness upon the Earth, and covered the People and Enoch; and he was taken up on high; and there was Light in the Heavens.
