1 Enoch 100:6

In 1 translation

1En-Charles

And (then) the children of the earth shall see the wise in security, And shall understand all the words of this book, And recognize that their riches shall not be able to save them In the overthrow of their sins.Text = πιστόν or πεποιθότα - a wrong rendering of בֶּטַח used pregnantly = dwelling in security. Cf. Gen. xxxiv. 25.I have transposed 'the children of the earth' from the second line to the first, and with 1gq taken 'the wise' in the acc. and not in the nom. as gmt, β. 'The wicked see the bliss of the wise.' Cf. 4 Ezra vii. 85; Wisdom iv. 17, etc.
