Or

Hear thou the things which must come to pass in the last times

There shall be famine and war and earthquakes in diverse places

Snow and ice and great drought shall there be

And many dissentions amongst people

Blasphemy inequity envy and villainy

Indolence pride and intemperance

So that every man shall speak that which pleaseth him

And the priests shall not have peace amongst themselves

Shall sacrifice unto making deceit for mind

Therefore will I not look upon them

Then shall the priests behold the people

Departing from the house of the Lord and

Turning unto the world and setting up

Landmarks in the house of God

They shall claim for themselves many things

And places that are lost and shall be

Subject unto Caesar as also they were

Of all times giving poll taxes of the cities

Even gold and silver

And the chief men of the city shall be condemned

And their substance brought into the treasuries of the kings

And they shall be killed

For there shall be great disturbance throughout all the people

And death also

The house of the Lord shall be desolate

And their altars shall be abhorred

So that spiders weave their webs there

The place of holiness too shall be corrupted

Priests all corrupted

Agony shall increase

Virtue shall be overcome

Joy perish

And gladness depart

In those days evil shall abound

There shall be respecters of persons

Hymns shall seize out of the house of the Lord

Truth shall be no more

Covetousness shall abound amongst the priests

And the bright man shall not be found

On some nation shall arise there the last time a king

A lover of the Lord

Who shall hold rule not or long

He shall leave two sons

The first is named after the first letter A

The second named after the eight letter H

The first shall die before the second

Thereafter shall rise two princes to oppress the nations

Under whose hands there shall be a very great famine

In the right hand part of the east

So that nation shall rise against nation

And be driven out from their own borders

Again another king shall rise

A crafty man

Who shall command a golden image of Caesar to be made

Therefore martyrdom shall abound

Then shall faith return unto the servants of the Lord

And holiness shall be multiplied

And agony increased

The mountains shall be comforted

And shall drop down sweepeth the fire from the face

Of the number of the saints maybe accomplished

After a little space there shall arise another king out of the east

A lover of the Lord

Who shall cause all good things and necessary to abound in the house of the Lord
