Prophecy of the Castigation

Sacred text of the Disciples of the Sixfold Seal.
The Maker saw and abhorred the provoking of His sons and of His daughters.
And He said, they have provoked me to anger with their vanities.
I shall heap mischiefs upon them; I shall spend mine arrows upon them.
They shall be burnt with hunger, and devoured with bitter destruction.
I shall send the teeth of beasts upon them, with the poison of serpents of the dust.
The sword without, and terror within, shall destroy the young man and the virgin.
The suckling also with the man of gray hairs.

For they are a Nation void of counsel, neither is there any understanding in them.
To me belongeth vengeance and recompence; their foot shall slide in due time.
The day of their Calamity is at hand.
And the things that shall come upon them make haste.
See now that I, even I, am thy Maker, and there is no other god with me.
I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal.
Neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.

If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment;
I shall render vengeance to mine enemies, and shall reward them who love me.
I shall make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh.
I shall avenge the blood of my servants and render vengeance to mine adversaries.
And to my faithful I shall be merciful; I shall send my Angel to deliver them.
They shall chase a thousand, and put ten thousand to flight.
