1. Nevertheless as concerning the tokens, behold, the days shall come, that they which dwell upon earth shall be taken with great amazement, and the way of truth shall be hidden, and the land shall be barren of faith.
2. But iniquity shall be increased above that which now you see, or that you have heard long ago.
3. And the land, that you see now to have rule, shall be waste and untrodden, and men shall see it desolate.
4. But if the Most High grant you to live, you shall see that which is after the third kingdom to be troubled; and the sun shall suddenly shine forth in the night, and the moon in the day:
5. and blood shall drop out of wood, and the stone shall give his voice, and the peoples shall be troubled; and their goings shall be changed:
6. and he shall rule, whom they that dwell upon the earth look not for, and the fowls shall take their flight away together:
7. and the Sodomite sea shall cast out fish, and make a noise in the night, which many have not known: but all shall hear the voice thereof.
