2
But iniquity shall be increased above that which now thou seest, or that thou hast heard long ago.
3
And the land, that thou seest now to have root, shalt thou see wasted suddenly.
4
But if the most High grant thee to live, thou shalt see after the third trumpet that the sun shall suddenly shine again in the night, and the moon thrice in the day:
5
And blood shall drop out of wood, and the stone shall give his voice, and the people shall be troubled:
6
And even he shall rule, whom they look not for that dwell upon the earth, and the fowls shall take their flight away together:
7
And the Sodomitish sea shall cast out fish, and make a noise in the night, which many have not known: but they shall all hear the voice thereof.
8
There shall be a confusion also in many places, and the fire shall be oft sent out again, and the wild beasts shall change their places, and menstruous women shall bring forth monsters:
9
And salt waters shall be found in the sweet, and all friends shall destroy one another; then shall wit hide itself, and understanding withdraw itself into his secret chamber,
