I saw the treasuries of all the winds; I saw how He had furnished with them the whole creation and the firm foundations of the earth.
And I saw the corner-stone of the earth: I saw the four winds which bear [the earth and] the firmament of the heaven.
〚And I saw how the winds stretch out the vaults of heaven〛, and have their station between heaven and earth: 〚these are the pillars of the heaven〛.
I saw the winds of heaven which turn and bring the circumference of the sun and all the stars to their setting.
I saw the winds on the earth carrying the clouds: I saw 〚the paths of the angels: I saw〛 at the end of the earth the firmament of the heaven above.
And I proceeded and saw a place which burns day and night, where there are seven mountains of magnificent stones, three towards the east, and three towards the south.
And as for those towards the east ‹one› was of coloured stone, and one of pearl, and one of jacinth, and those towards the south of red stone.
But the middle one reached to heaven like the throne of God, of alabaster, and the summit of the throne was of sapphire.
And I saw a flaming fire. And beyond these mountains
is a region, the end of the great earth: there the heavens were completed.
And I saw a deep abyss, with columns 〚of heavenly fire, and among them I saw columns〛 of fire fall, which were beyond measure alike towards the height and towards the depth.
And beyond that abyss I saw a place which had no firmament of the heaven above, and no firmly founded earth beneath it: there was no water upon it, and no birds, but it was a waste and horrible place.
I saw there seven stars like great burning mountains, and to me, when I inquired regarding them,
The angel said: ‘This place is the end of heaven and earth: this has become a prison for the stars and the host of heaven.
And the stars which roll over the fire are they which have transgressed the commandment of the Lord in the beginning of their rising, because they did not come forth at their appointed times.
And He was wroth with them, and bound them till the time when their guilt should be consummated (even) ⌜for ten thousand years⌝.’
Text sources and edition

The traditional KJV Common Cambridge Text is used, with its supplied-word italics. This is not the NKJV or a facsimile of the first 1611 printing. Bible text and original Strong’s dictionaries are public domain in the United States; the Greek electronic edition has a CC0 dedication. See the included source manifest. Administrators can correct text; corrections are recorded separately from the imported source.

Additional texts: Book of Enoch (1 Enoch), R. H. Charles, 1917; Book of Jasher, historical English translation reproduced in the 1887 edition. These are separate from the KJV. The category title is the site’s chosen designation. The surviving Jasher edition is not established as the lost book cited in Joshua 10:13 and 2 Samuel 1:18. Charles’s critical symbols and parallel readings are retained; numbered subverses share their parent verse. See the supplied source notes.
