For I, the Lord God, shall come to judge between the three races of men; woe be unto the empty handed, the slothful and the coward. I shall bring judgment upon them with fire and with brimstone, even the baby at the mother’s breast shall not escape, saith the Lord. Prepare ye a bill of arrangement, saith the Lord, and give it in the hands of thy colleague that he go to the land of Ethiopia (Africa) and to the nations at the entrance of the land and request them to open the door for the return of thy children.
