And he showed me in his right hand the souls of all men.
2And on the palm of his right hand the image of that which shall be accomplished at the last day: and how the righteous and the sinners shall be separated, and how they do that are upright in heart, and how the evil-doers shall be rooted out unto all eternity.
3We beheld how the sinners wept (weep) in great affliction and sorrow, until all that saw it with their eyes wept, whether righteous or angels, and he himself also.
4And I asked him and said unto him: Lord, suffer me to speak thy word concerning the sinners: It were better for them if they had not been created.
5And the Saviour answered and said unto me: Peter, wherefore speakest thou thus, that not to have been created were better for them?
6Thou resistest God.
7Thou wouldest not have more compassion than he for his image: for he hath created them and brought them forth out of not being.
8Now because thou hast seen the lamentation which shall come upon the sinners in the last days, therefore is thine heart troubled; but I will show thee their works, whereby they have sinned against the Most High.
9Behold now what shall come upon them in the last days, when the day of God and the day of the decision of the judgement of God cometh.
10From the east unto the west shall all the children of men be gathered together before my Father that liveth for ever.
11And he shall command hell to open its bars of adamant and give up all that is therein.
