**13:1** Behold, I have foretold you all things, that I may be clear from the sin of your souls.

**13:2** Now, if ye remove from you your envy, and all your stiffneckedness, as a rose shall my bones flourish in Israel, and as a lily my flesh in Jacob, and my odour shall be as the odour of Libanus; and as cedars shall holy ones be multiplied from me for ever, and their branches shall stretch afar off.

**13:3** Then shall perish the seed of Canaan, and a remnant shall not be to Amalek, and all the Cappadocians shall perish, and all the Hittites shall be utterly destroyed.

**13:4** Then shall fail the land of Ham, and every people shall perish.

**13:5** Then shall all the earth rest from trouble, and all the world under heaven from war.

**13:6** Then shall Shem be glorified, because the Lord God, the Mighty One of Israel, shall appear upon earth as man, and saved by Him Adam.

**13:7** Then shall all the spirits of deceit be given to be trampled under foot, and men shall rule over the wicked spirits.

**13:8** Then will I arise in joy, and will bless the Most High because of His marvellous works, because God hath taken a body and eaten with men and saved men.
