Book of Enoch 14:9
From Book of Enoch
14:9 And I went in till I drew nigh to a wall which is built of crystals and surrounded by flames of fire: and it began to affright me. And I went into the flames of fire and drew nigh to a large house which was built of crystals: and the walls of the house were like a tesselated floor (made) of crystals, and its groundwork was of crystal.
