Chapter 6 Peace be upon you, my lord and teacher, Prince of Peace, Heavenly Court from And accept my prayer with mercy and favor from before You May it be Your will that the gates of heaven be opened for me and that You grant wisdom in my heart and understanding in my thoughts, and may my heart be a dwelling for Your Presence, and may Your Holy Spirit rest upon me and bestow upon me a spirit of wisdom and understanding, a spirit of counsel and might, a spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord; and he shall be inspired by the fear of the Lord, and not by the sight of his eyes shall he judge, nor by the hearing of his ears shall he decide. And he shall judge the poor with righteousness, and decide with equity for the humble of the earth; and he shall strike the earth with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips he shall slay the wicked. And righteousness shall be the girdle of his loins, and faithfulness the girdle of his reins. And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid, and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them. And the cow and the bear shall feed; their young ones shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. And the sucking child shall play on the hole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the basilisk's den. They shall not hurt nor destroy in all My holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the root of Jesse, that standeth for an ensign of the peoples, unto him shall the nations seek; and his resting-place shall be glorious. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord will set His hand again the second time to recover the remnant of His people, that shall remain from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. And He shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth. And the envy of Ephraim shall depart, and they that harass Judah shall be cut off; Ephraim shall not envy Judah, and Judah shall not harass Ephraim. And they shall fly down upon the shoulder of the Philistines on the west; together they shall spoil the children of the east; Edom and Moab shall be the putting forth of their hand; and the children of Ammon shall obey them. And the Lord shall utterly destroy the tongue of the Egyptian sea; and with His scorching wind shall He shake His hand over the River, and shall smite it into seven streams, and cause men to march over in sandals. And there shall be a highway for the remnant of His people, that shall remain from Assyria, like as there was for Israel in the day that he came up out of the land of Egypt. Blessed be the Lord forever, Amen and Amen.

If a comet appeared in the west in the land of Syria, there will be war in Damascus and prices will drop in the world. And if another star rises in the east in the morning in the east, there will be much rain and great illness and death among the cattle and among the birds, and there will be disagreement between the kings, and there will be cheapness and abundance of wheat without rain. If the seed is ⟦false/failed⟧, dry. If the tail of Aries, there will be cheapness of chickens, fat, and oil, and everything will be cheap. If the tail of Taurus, there will be rain and much cold, and in winter much snow, and at the end of the winter there will be intense heat, and in the spring there will be rain, and in the summer there will be rain, and the sheep and all the fruits will be good, and the wine will be good, and all the people will have joy and much sustenance; and from God comes success, Amen, and praise be to God, Lord of the worlds, and may God's blessing be upon him. Likewise, it is necessary for anyone who has merchandise at sea to have fear of drowning.
