3
And I beheld, and, lo, that man waxed strong with the thousands of heaven: and when he turned
his countenance to look, all the things trembled that were seen under him.
4
And whensoever the voice went out of his mouth, all they burned that heard his voice, like as
the earth faileth when it feeleth the fire.
5
And after this I beheld, and, lo, there was gathered together a multitude of men, out of number,
from the four winds of the heaven, to subdue the man that came out of the sea
6
But I beheld, and, lo, he had graved himself a great mountain, and flew up upon it.
7
But I would have seen the region or place whereout the hill was graven, and I could not.
8
And after this I beheld, and, lo, all they which were gathered together to subdue him were sore
afraid, and yet durst fight.
9
And, lo, as he saw the violence of the multitude that came, he neither lifted up his hand, nor
held sword, nor any instrument of war:
10
But only I saw that he sent out of his mouth as it had been a blast of fire, and out of his lips
a flaming breath, and out of his tongue he cast out sparks and tempests.
11
And they were all mixed together; the blast of fire, the flaming breath, and the great tempest;
and fell with violence upon 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
and smell of smoke: when I saw this I was afraid.
12
Afterward saw I the same man come down from the mountain, and call unto him another
peaceable Multitude.
13
And there came much people unto him, whereof some were glad, some were sorry, and some
of them were bound, and other some brought of them that were offered: then was I sick through
great fear, and I awaked, and said,
14
Thou hast shewed thy servant these wonders from the beginning, and hast counted me worthy
that thou shouldest receive my prayer:
15
Shew me now yet the interpretation of this dream.
16
For as I conceive in mine understanding, woe unto them that shall be left in those days and
much more woe unto them that are not left behind!
17
For they that were not left were in heaviness.
18
Now understand I the things that are laid up in the latter days, which shall happen unto them,
and to those that are left behind.
19
Therefore are they come into great perils and many necessities, like as these dreams declare.
20
Yet is it easier for him that is in danger to come into these things, than to pass away as a cloud
out of the world, and not to see the things that happen in the last days. And he answered unto me,
and said,
21
The interpretation of the vision shall I shew thee, and I will open unto thee the thing that thou
hast required.
22
Whereas thou hast spoken of them that are left behind, this is the interpretation:
