Darkness covered those men standing with Enoch as he was taken up on to the highest heaven.
1hen Enoch had talked to the people, the Lord sent out darkness on to the earth, and there was darkness, and it covered those men standing with Enoch, and they took Enoch up on to the highest heaven, where the Lord (is); and he received him and placed him before his face, and the darkness went off from the earth, and light came again.
2 And the people saw and understood not how Enoch had been taken, and glorified God, and found a roll in which was traced The Invisible (spiritual) God; and all went to their dwelling places.

Commentary
In brief
After Enoch talks to the people, darkness covers those with him and he is taken to the highest heaven, where the Lord places him before his face, then light returns. The people do not understand the taking, glorify God, find a roll tracing the Invisible God, and return to their homes.
