1It happened after the children of men had increased in those days, that daughters were born unto them elegant and beautiful.
2And when the angels the sons of heaven saw them, they were inflamed with love of them, and said to each other, Come, let us choose for ourselves wives from the daughters of men, and let us beget children.
3Then Samiaza their leader said to them, I fear that you may perhaps be averse to the performance of this undertaking,
4And that I alone shall suffer for so great a crime.
5But they answered, and said unto him, We all swear:
6And bind ourselves by mutual execrations, that we will not change our intention, but will perform our intended undertaking.
7Then they all swore one another, and bound themselves by mutual execrations. Their whole number was two hundred, who descended in the days of Jared, upon the top of Mount Armon.
8Therefore they called that mountain Armon, because they had sworn upon it, and bound them selves by mutual execrations.
9These are the names of their chiefs, the first Samiaza, who was their leader; the second Arstikapha; the third, Armen; the fourth, Akibeel; the fifth, Tamiel; the sixth, Ramiel; the seventh, Danyal; the eight, Zakiel; the ninth, Barakel; the tenth, Azaziel; the eleventh, Armers; the twelfth, Bataryal; the thirteenth, Ananel; the fourteenth, Thausael; the fifteenth, Samiel; the sixteenth, Ertael; the seventeenth, Tumael; the eighteenth, Tarel; the nineteenth, Yomyael; the twentieth, Sariel.
10These, with all the others, in the thousand one hundred and seventieth year of the world, took to themselves wives, and they continued in their madness with them until the flood. *
11And there were born unto them three sorts, the first were great giants, and to the giants were born Nephilim, and to the Nephilim were born Elioud.
12And they increased in their power, and taught each other and their wives sorcery and incantations.
