1 “And as for the angels you saw descending and ascending the ladder,
2 in the last years there will be a man from the Most High, and he will desire to join the upper (things) with the lower.
3 And before his coming your sons and daughters will tell about him and your young men will have visions about him.
4 Such will be the signs at the time of his coming:
5 A tree cut with an ax will bleed;
6 three-month-old babes will speak understanding;
7 a baby in the womb of his mother will speak of his way;
8 a youth will be like an Old man.
9 And then the expected one will come, whose path will not be noticed by anyone.
10 “Then the earth will be glorified, receiving heavenly glory.
11 What was above will be below also.c
12 And from your seed will bloom a root of kings;
13 it will emerged and overthrow the power of evil.
14 And he himself will be the Savior for every land and rest for those who toil, and a Cloud shading the whole world from the buming heat.
15 For otherwise the uncontrollede will not be controlled.
16 If he does not come,f the lower (things) cannot be joined with the upper.
17 At his coming the idols of brass, stone, and any sort of carving will give voice for three days.
18 They will give wise men news of him and let them know what will be on earth.
19 By a star, those who wish to see on earth him whom the angels do not see above will find the way to him.
20 Then the Almighty will be on earth in body, and, embraced by corporeal arms, he will restore human matter.
21 And he will revive Eve, who died by the fruit of the tree.
22 Then the deceit of the impious will be exposed and all the idols will fall face down.
23 For they will be put to shame by a dignitary.
24 For because (they were) lying by means of hallucinations, henceforth they will not be able to rule or to prophesy.
25 Honor will be tdcen from them and they will remain without glory.
26 “For he who comes will take power and might and will give Abraham the truth which he previously told him.
27 Everything Sharp he will make dull, and the rough will be smooth.
28 And he will cast all the iniquitous into the depths of the sea.
29 He will work wonders in heaven and on earth.
30 And he will be wounded in the midst of his beloved house.
31 And when he is wounded, then salvation will be ready, and the end to all perdition.
32 For those who have wounded him will themselves receive a wound which will not be cured in them forever.
33 And all creation will bow to him who was wounded, and many will frust in him.
34 And he will become known everywhere in all lands, and those who acknowledge his name will not be ashamed.
35 His own dominion and years will be unending forever.”
