Chapter XXXVII
XXXVII.

by me, in appearance white as snow, and his hands like ice, having the appearance of great frost, and he froze my face, because I could not endure the terror of the Lord, just as it is not possible to endure a stove's fire and the sun's heat, and the frost of the air.
2 And the Lord said to me: 'Enoch, if thy face be not frozen here, no man will be able to behold thy face.'
