Book of Enoch

Chapter XLII

Jewish Apocrypha trans. R.H. Charles • c. 3rd-1st century BCE

42:1

Wisdom found no place where she might dwell; Then a dwelling-place was assigned her in the heavens.

42:2

Wisdom went forth to make her dwelling among the children of men, And found no dwelling-place: Wisdom returned to her place, And took her seat among the angels.

42:3

And unrighteousness went forth from her chambers: Whom she sought not she found, And dwelt with them, As rain in a desert And dew on a thirsty land.
