Testament of Levi 2

1I, Levi, was born in Haran, and I came with my father to Shechem.

2And I was still young, about twenty years old, and then I carried out vengeance with Simeon for our sister Dinah against Hamor.

3And as I was shepherding in Abelmaul, a spirit of understanding from the Lord came upon me, and I saw all people destroying their way, and sin was being built upon a wall, and injustice sat upon towers.

4And I was grieved over the race of the sons of men, and I prayed to the Lord that I might be saved.

5Then sleep fell upon me, and I saw a high mountain, and I was on it.

6And behold, the heavens were opened, and an angel of the Lord said to me, “Levi, Levi, enter.”
