CHAPTER 5:
1 The signs of the times to come. 23 He asks
why Elohim choosing but one people, did
cast them off. 30 He is taught, that Yahuah’s
Judgments are unsearchable: 46 and that
Yahuah does not all at once.
Signs of the End
Shall be

Or, that thou
treadest upon
and sees.
Cf. Rev. 8:12.
After the 3rd

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,
10 And shall be sought of
many, and yet not be found:
then shall unrighteousness and
incontinency be multiplied
upon earth.
11 One land also shall
ask another, and say, Is
righteousness that makes a
man righteous, gone through
you? And it shall say, No.
12 At the same time shall men
hope, but nothing obtain: they
shall labor, but their ways shall
not prosper.
13 To show you such tokens
I have leave: and if you will
pray again, and weep as now,
and fast seven days, you shall
hear yet greater things.
1 Nevertheless as concerning
the tokens, behold, the days
shall come that they which
dwell upon earth, shall be
taken in a great number, 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 root, shall you see
wasted suddenly.
4 But if the Most High grant
you to live, you shall 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

the fouls shall take their flight
away together.
