1 There, my eyes saw a deep valley with open mouths, where all who live on earth, sea, and islands will bring gifts, presents, and tributes, yet the valley will never fill. 2 They commit unlawful acts, and the sinners consume all they oppress unlawfully: yet, sinners will be destroyed from the presence of the Lord of Spirits, expelled from His earth, and they will be gone forever. 3 I saw all the angels of punishment waiting there, preparing all the instruments of Satan. 4 I asked the angel of peace who accompanied me, 'For whom are they preparing these instruments?' 5 He replied, 'They are preparing these for the kings and the powerful of this earth, so that they may be destroyed through them.' 6 Afterwards, the Righteous and Elect One will establish the house of his followers, and they will no longer be hindered in the name of the Lord of Spirits. 7 The mountains will not stand firm like the earth before his righteousness, but the hills will be like a fountain of water, and the righteous will rest from the oppression of sinners.'
