The Book of the Secrets of Enoch 55
Enoch tells his children the day of his term and time have approached for him.
1y children, behold, the day of my term and time have approached.
2 For the angels who shall go with me are standing before me and urge me to my departure from you; they are standing here on earth, awaiting what has been told them.
3 For to-morrow I shall go up on to heaven, to the uppermost Jerusalem to my eternal inheritance.
4 Therefore I bid you do before the Lord's face all (his) good pleasure.
