1 Enoch (Ethiopic) Parallel Translations

XXXI

1And I saw other mountains, and amongst them were groves of trees, and there flowed forth from 2them nectar, which is named sarara and galbanum. And beyond these mountains I saw another mountain to the east of the ends of the earth, whereon were aloe-trees, and all the trees were full 3of stacte, being like almond-trees. And when one burnt it, it smelt sweeter than any fragrant odour.
