1 And he said to me, "Look now beneath your feet at the firmament and understand the creation that was depicted of old on this expanse, (and) the creatures 30.
2 And He said to me, "Look now beneath your feet at the firmaments and understand the creation represented and foreshadowed in this expanse, the creatures who exist upon it, and the ages prepared for it." 2. which are in it and the age prepared after it." And I looked beneath the firmament at my feet and I saw the likeness of heaven and the things that were therein. 31.
3 And I saw beneath the surface of my feet, even beneath the sixth heaven and what was therein, and then the earth and its fruits, and what moved upon it and its animate beings, and the power of its men, and the ungodliness of some of its souls and the righteous deeds of other souls, and I saw the lower regions and the perdition therein, the abyss and its torments.
4 And I saw the sea and its islands, its monsters and its fishes, and Leviathan and his dominion, his camping-ground and his caves, and the world which lay above him, his movements and the destructions of the world on his account.
5 And I saw there the streams and the rivers, and the rising of their waters, and their windings in their courses.
6 And I saw there the Garden of Eden and its fruits, the source of the river that issues from it, the trees and their blossoms, and the ones who behaved righteously.
7 And I saw therein their foods and their blessedness.
8 And I saw there a great multitude, men and women and children, half of them on the right side of the vision, and half of them on the left side of the vision. 3.
9 And (I saw) there the earth and its fruit, and its moving things and its things that had souls, and its host of men and the impiety of their souls and their justification, and their pursuit of their works and the abyss and its torments, 4. and its lower depths and (the) perdition in it.
10 And I saw there the sea and its islands, and its cattle and its fish, and Leviathan and his realm and his bed and his lairs, and the world which lay upon him, and his motions and the destruction 5. he caused the world.
11 I saw there the rivers and their upper (reaches) and their circles. 6.
12 And I saw there the garden of Eden and its fruits, and the source and the river flowing from it, and its trees and their flowering, making fruits, and I saw men doing justice in it, their food and their rest. 7.
13 And I saw there a great crowd of men and women and children, half of them on the right side of the portrayal, and half of them on the left side of the portrayal.
