This manuscript was "discovered" by an anonymous individual and transcripts of the Greek and Latin were sent to me by mail in 2005. This is the first time I have worked on the translation.
Here, I present the Greek text with the literal English and the Latin text and its literal rendering. Finally, I present my translation in plain English.
I can not vouch for the authenticity of this document. However, I present it here, in PDF format, for historical reasons.

THE ACCOUNT OF ENOCH THE PROPHET
1 Enoch was shown a vision of the coming deluge. The LORD said, My servant, Enoch, you must warn the wicked generation that I tend to keep my promise. I will destroy every creation in the land for they have corrupted all that I have made.
2 Enoch asked, Who will survive, my Lord? God said, I have a chosen vessel that will carry on the pure seed of righteousness. You will be taken before this great destruction comes. Warn the infidels!
3 Enoch went out to the multitude and said, Behold, the LORD is coming with ten thousand of his holy ones to mete out judgment to all those who are ungodly. You have sinned a grievous sin and forgotten the creator of the worlds.
4 After he said this, the multitude took up arms to kill him. Suddenly, a whirlwind came from heaven, as a storm of fire. Within the whirlwind of fire were seraphim, dragons of the power of God. All who saw this became blind in that moment for their eyes were burned from their sockets.
5 Enoch was then taken up into the heavens and disappeared from the land. No one knew where he went. He could not be found, for God took him to an appointed place, even to a place of holy ground.
6 In this place, Enoch wrote books about the history of his people, from Adam until the time of his generation.
7 At that time, God showed him a vision of the great Leviathan and Behemoth. These two beasts were stirring up the population in the end of days. Behemoth was a beast of liberty and Leviathan was one of royalty and power. They began as one beast with a name called Phoenix. The Phoenix died and from the ashes arose these two great beasts. Behemoth eventually became greater and dictated its laws to the whole earth. It attacked Ishmael continually, even when he did not deserve to be punished.
8 Then another beast came up. It awoke from a slumber. The beast was a dragon-like beast with ten horns returning to reclaim its two severed heads, that is, Leviathan and Behemoth. The two beasts fought for a while but gave in afterwards. Now the dragon-like beast was again whole and it ruled the whole earth. It placed its seal upon the multitude until one like the son of man came and destroyed the beast.
9 After this vision, Enoch was afraid and stricken with awe.
10 It came to pass that Noah entered the ark and God fulfilled his will.
