The Assumption of Moses 6

1Then shall arise over them kings to reign and they shall be called priests of the Most High God, and they shall verily work impiety in the Holy of Holies.

2And to them shall succeed a self-willed king, who shall not be of the priestly line, a rash and wicked man, and he shall judge them as they deserve.

3He shall cut off their chief men with the sword and bury them in unknown places, so that no man may know where their bodies rest.

4He shall slay old men and young men and shall not spare.

5Then shall there be bitter fear of him among them in their land,

6And he shall execute judgement upon them, as did the Egyptians, for thirty and four years, and shall punish them. . . .

7And he shall beget sons that shall succeed him and reign for shorter periods.

8Into their parts shall come the strong and a mighty Western king, who shall conquer them,

9And lead them captive and burn part of their temple with fire, and crucify some around their "colony."
