Hear, therefore, the interpretation of the last dark waters appointed after the dark ones. This is the Word:
2
Behold, days are coming when the world’s time ripens and the harvest of its evil and good seed arrives. The Mighty One shall bring upon the earth, its inhabitants, and its rulers confusion of ruachot and bewilderment of heart.
3
They shall hate one another and provoke one another to battle. The despised shall rule over the honored, and the low be exalted over the praised.
4
The many shall be delivered to the few; those who were nothing shall rule the mighty; the poor shall surpass the rich, and the wicked be exalted over the warriors.
5
The wise shall be silent and fools speak. The thought of the sons of adam shall not be established, nor the counsel of the Mighty One, nor the hope of those who hope.
6
When the things spoken beforehand occur, confusion shall fall upon all the sons of adam. Some shall fall in battle, some be destroyed by distress, and some be hindered by those belonging to them.
7
Elyon shall reveal the peoples He prepared beforehand, and they shall come and fight the rulers then remaining.
8
Whoever escapes battle shall die in an earthquake; whoever escapes the earthquake shall burn in fire; whoever escapes fire shall be consumed by famine.
9
Whoever escapes and flees all the things spoken beforehand—whether conqueror or conquered—| shall be delivered into the hands of My servant Mashiyah.
10
For the whole earth shall devour its inhabitants.
