Chapter 5

1But there shall arise also in the West a king of foreign race, a prince of great craft, godless,$ a homicide, a deceiver, a lover of gold, great at devices,? a hater of the faithful,” a persecutor44; and he shall bear rule also over barbarous nations, and shall shed much blood. At that time silver shall be despised and gold be honoured; and in every city and every country there shall be spoiling and robbery, and there shall be # spilling of blood.
