| 1 | And after that I saw thousands of thousands and ten thousand times ten thousand, I saw a multitude beyond number and reckoning, who stood before the Lord of Spirits. |
| 2 | And on the four sides of the Lord of Spirits I saw four presences, different from those that sleep not, and I learnt their names: for the angel that went with me made known to me their names, and showed me all the hidden things. |
| 3 | And I heard the voices of those four presences as they uttered praises before the Lord of glory. |
| 4 | The first voice blesses the Lord of Spirits for ever and ever. |
| 5 | And the second voice I heard blessing the Elect One and the elect ones who hang upon the Lord of Spirits. |
| 6 | And the third voice I heard pray and intercede for those who dwell on the earth and supplicate in the name of the Lord of Spirits. |
| 7 | And I heard the fourth voice fending off the Satans and forbidding them to come before the Lord of Spirits to accuse them who dwell on the earth. |
| 8 | After that I asked the angel of peace who went with me, who showed me everything that is hidden: ‘Who are these four presences which I have seen and whose words I have heard and written down?’ |
| 9 | And he said to me: ‘This first is Michael, the merciful and long-suffering: and the second, who is set over all the diseases and all the wounds of the children of men, is Raphael: and the third, who is set over all the powers, is Gabriel: and the fourth, who is set over the repentance unto hope of those who inherit eternal life, is named Phanuel.’ |
| 10 | And these are the four angels of the Lord of Spirits and the four voices I heard in those days. |
