2 BARUCH 84
84:1 Now, I gave you knowledge, while I still live. For I have said that you should particularly learn my mighty commandments which HE has instructed you. And I shall set before you some of the commandments of HIS judgment before I die.
84:2 Remember that once Mosheh called heaven and earth to witness against you and said, "If you trespass the Torah, you shall be dispersed. And if you shall keep it, you shall be planted.'
84:3 And also other things he said to you when you were in the desert as twelve tribes together.
84:4 And after his death you cast it away from you and, therefore, that which has been said before has come upon you.
84:5 And now, Mosheh spoke to you before it befell you and, behold, it has befallen you for you have forsaken the Torah.
84:6 Also I, behold, I say to you after you suffered that if you obey the things which I have said to you, you shall receive from YAHWEH the Mighty One everything which has been prepared and has been preserved for you.
84:7 Therefore, let this letter be a witness between me and you that you may remember the commandments of YAHWEH the Mighty One, and that it also may serve as my defense in the presence of HIM who has sent me.
84:8 And remember Zion and the Torah and the kodesh land and your brothers and the covenant and your fathers, and do not forget the Festivals and the Shabbats.
84:9 And give this letter and the doctrine of the Torah to your children after you as also your fathers handed down to you.
84:10 And ask always and pray seriously with your whole soul that YAHWEH the Mighty One may accept you in mercy and that HE may not reckon the multitude of your sinners, but remember the integrity of your fathers.
84:11 For if HE judges us not according to the multitude of HIS free unmerited favor and pardon, woe to all us who are born.!
