28. Where is Uriel the angel, who came to me at the first? for he has caused me to fall into this great trance, and mine end is turned into corruption, and my prayer to rebuke.
29. And as I was speaking these words, behold, the angel who had come to me at the first came to me, and he looked upon me:
30. and, behold, I lay as one that had been dead, and mine understanding was taken from me; and he took me by the right hand, and comforted me, and set me upon my feet, and said to me,
31. What aileth you? and why are you so disquieted? and why is your understanding troubled, and the thoughts of your heart?
32. And I said, Because you have forsaken me: yet I did according to your words, and went into the field, and, behold, I have seen, and yet see, that which I am not able to express.
33. And he said to me, Stand up like a man, and I will advise you.
34. Then said I, Speak on, my Lord; only forsake me not, lest I die frustrate of my hope.
35. For I have seen that I knew not, and hear that I do not know.
36. Or is my sense deceived, or my soul in a dream?
37. Now therefore I beseech you to show your servant concerning this trance.
38. And he answered me, and said, Hear me, and I shall inform you, and tell you concerning the things whereof you are afraid: For the Most High has revealed many secret things to you.
