"Destruction," (Plagues to Come).

Do you think that in vain the
burning plague was created
to cover the earth with the
girth of its reach...

Perfecttly accurate
circumference in every
direction

Salting the land for 30 years
at least; killing off, man and
beast...

No vegetation can be produced...

But be not dismayed, it waits till
the pollutants have been purged;
waiting dormant, patiently,
sub-terra until it is once again,
prompted to give its yield
                                                             
City centers and surrounding
suburbs, leveled from the West
to the East

Men, from the four corners of
the earth will celebrate at the site
that they behold

For, for so long the Eagle that was
the pride over many waters will
succumb to the bear that growls
in its ferocity

The lion of the East is his arm and
together, they will go forth and
cause a great alarm...

The one who exalted itself for a
century and two centuries and nearly
three will be rained down from the
heavens with fire that will not be
quenched; and forever in its Kingdom
will only be heard, silence

And in the minds of those who knew
her will be s memorial: how did a
nation that we all knew so well and
loved, be annihilated so that it is not
even mentioned anymore

So throw away your pride and think
not in your hearts that every Kingdom
that arises reigns forever

They rise and they fall but the one
who lives and reigns forever, is the,
"All-Father, "

So fiery rain will fall and reduce to
ashes, all those who have not secured
for themselves, a life everlasting
