Book 📖 of the Secret of Enoch
Chapter LI
LI.
Enoch instructs his sons, that they hide not treasures in the earth, but bids them give alms to the poor.
STRETCH out your hands to the poor according to your strength.
2 Hide not your silver in the earth.
3 Help the faithful man in affliction, and affliction will not find you in the time of your trouble.
4 And every grievous and cruel yoke that come upon you bear all for the sake of the Lord, and thus you will find your reward in the day of judgement.
5 It is good to go morning, midday, and evening into the Lord's dwelling, for the glory of your creator.
6 Because every breathing thing glorifies him, and every creature visible and invisible returns him praise.
