Your Law has been destroyed by fire, so no one can know what you have done in the past or what you are planning to do in the future.
22
Please send your holy spirit to me, so that I can write down everything that has been done in this world from the beginning, everything that was written in your Law. Then in these last days, people will be able to find the right way and obtain life if they want to."
23

24
Prepare a large number of writing tablets, and take with you these five men who can write fast: Seraiah, Dabriah, Shelemiah, Ethan, and Asiel.
25
Then come here, and I will light the lamp of understanding in your heart, and it will not go out until you have finished what you are supposed to write.
