The sons of light shall be undertaken against the forces
Of the sons of darkness, the army of belial. on that day,
The congregation of the gods and the congregation of men
Shall engage one another resulting in great carnage. in
Three lots the sons of light shall stand firm, so as to
Strike a blow at wickedness. and also in three, the army
Of belial shall edify themselves so as to impel the retreat
Of the forces of light. and when the banners of the infantry
Cause their hearts to melt, then the power of the almighty
Shall strengthen the sons of light. in the seventh lot, the
Great hand of god shall overcome belial and every angel in
His dominion. and all the men of his forces shall be
Destroyed forever.
