And they give thanks and praise and rest not; For unto them is their thanksgiving rest. 8For the sun changes oft for a blessing or a curse, And the course of the path of the moon is light to the righteous, And darkness to the sinners in the name of the Lord, Who made a separation between the light and the darkness, And divided the spirits of men, And strengthened the spirits of the righteous, In the name of His righteousness. 9For no angel hinders and no power is able to hinder; for He appoints a judge for them all and he judges them all before Him. ‹Previous chapter1 Enoch 40Next chapter1 Enoch 42›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
