XXXIII.

You see in what manner of fasting and prayer the saints

‹ Section 32 Section 34 ›

will

exercise

themselves

at

that

time

.

Observe

,

also

,

how

hard

the

season

and

the

times

will

be

that

are

to

come

upon

those

in

city

and

country

alike

.

At

that

time

they

will

be

brought

from

the

east

even

unto

the

west

;

and

they

will

come

up

from

the

west

even

unto

the

east

,

and

will

weep

greatly

and

wail

vehemently

.

And

when

the

day

begins

to

dawn

they

will

long

for

the

night

,

in

order

that

they

may

find

rest

from

their

labours

;

and

when

the

night

descends

upon

them

,

by

reason

of

the

continuous

earthquakes

and

the

tempests

in

the

air

,

they

will

desire

even

to

behold

the

light

of

the

day

,

and

will

seek

how

they

may

hereafter

meet

a

bitter

death

.

At

that

time

the

whole

earth

will

bewail

the

life

of

anguish

,

and

the

sea

and

air

in

like

manner

will

bewail

it

;

and

the

sun

,

too

,

will

wail

;

and

the

wild

beasts

,

together

with

the

fowls

,

will

wail

;

mountains

and

hills

,

and

the

trees

of

the

plain

,

will

wail

on

account

of

the

race

of

man

,

because

all

have

turned

aside

from

the

holy

God

,

and

obeyed

the

deceiver

,

and

received

the

mark

of

that

abominable

one

,

the

enemy

of

God

,

instead

of

the

quickening

cross

of

the

Saviour

.
