1. And it came to pass after seven days, I dreamed a dream by night:
2. and, behold, there arose a wind from the sea, that it moved all the waves thereof.
3. And I saw, and, behold, [this wind caused to come up from the midst of the sea as it were the likeness of a man, and I saw, and, behold,] that man flew with the clouds of heaven: and when he turned his countenance to look, all things trembled that were seen under him.
4. And whenever the voice went out of his mouth, all they burned that heard his voice, like as the wax melteth when it feeleth the fire.
5. And after this I saw, and, behold, there was gathered together a multitude of men, out of number, from the four winds of heaven, to make war against the man that came out of the sea.
6. And I saw, and, behold, he carved himself a great mountain, and flew upon it.
7. But I sought to see the region or place whereout the mountain was graven, and I could not.
8. And after this I saw, and, behold, all they which were gathered together to fight against him were sore afraid, and yet dared fight.
9. And, behold, as he saw the assualt of the multitude that came, he neither lifted up his hand, nor held spear, nor any instrument of war:
10. but only I saw how that he sent out of his mouth as it had been a flood of fire, and out of his lips a flaming breath, and out of his tongue he cast forth sparks of the storm.
11. And these were all mingled together; the flood of fire, the flaming breath, and the great storm; and fell upon the assault of the multitude which was prepared to fight, and burned them up every one, so that upon a sudden of an innumerable multitude nothing was to be perceived, but only dust of ashes and smell of smoke: when I saw this I was amazed.
12. Afterward I saw the same man come down from the mountain, and call to him another multitude which was peaceful.
