The Journeys of Gubir and Jaresh
1And Jaresh prayed in his heart to know the meaning of these things. And he pondered for a time. And after pondering he did speak unto King Oram saying, This dream which you have seen speaketh of the future of the lands southward. For this whole land shall become part of the Kingdom of God. And the lands southward shall be the center part of the Kingdom. And many people of your kingdom shall become inhabitants of that land. And this dream doth concern them. For behold the creatures in this dream do symbolize specific kingdoms. For the young water buffalo doth symbolize that region of land southward. And in the future a kingdom shall come into those lands from a great distance away. And they shall seize power in the lands southward. And the people of the lands southward shall fight but the foreign kingdom shall take power in the land. And this kingdom shall retain power over the lands southward for a great many years. And after this time another kingdom shall come, which is symbolized by the eagle, Yea the people of this kingdom do rally behind the symbol of an eagle. And this kingdom shall come unto the lands southward and shall take power from them. And the kingdom of the eagle shall have power over the lands southward. And after some years a third kingdom which is symbolized by dragon, shall attack the lands southward under the control of the kingdom of the eagle. And the third kingdom shall cast out the nation of the eagle and take power over the lands southward. And the dragon shall gain power in other islands for this is what is meant by the wings spreading. And there shall be one among the forces of the kingdom of the eagle which before fleeing the lands southward shall vow to return unto those lands. And there shall be a time when the kingdom of the eagle shall return to the lands southward and they shall drive the third kingdom out of those lands. And they shall establish a rule in the lands southward. And they shall organize a kingdom of the native people of those lands. And thus shall the people of the lands southward be nurtured. And the time shall come when the kingdom of the eagle will leave and return to their own land. And the power of the kingdom in the lands southward shall be retained in the hands of those native peoples. And the people who control the kingdom shall make foolish mistakes. And they shall lead the kingdom to near destruction. And there shall come a record among the people which is symbolized by the scroll. And the people of the lands southward shall take up this record and accept it. And they who accept the record shall become a mighty and strong people. And they shall gain so much power that they shall gain control beyond their borders. Yea even the people of this land shall be united as part of the kingdom. And this kingdom shall have so much power that they shall gain control over a portion of land in the kingdom of the eagle. And they shall gain control over a small portion of land in the third kingdom. They shall also gain control over a portion of land in the first kingdom. And this is what is meant by those things that you have seen in your dream. And King Oram stood silent, and he did not speak a word. For he was amazed that Gubir and Jaresh spoke the same things. And He knew that this must mean they were truly guided by their God. And it came to pass that King Oram did flee from the presence of Jaresh. And after the space of many hours he did order that Gubir and Jaresh be brought unto him. And he spake unto them saying, You know not of my plans concerning you. For I had commanded that if your interpretations of my dream be different then I would know that you were not guided by your God and that you were spies sent to kill me. And I commanded that if it be so, you should be killed. But behold your interpretations of my dream did not vary even in the slightest degree. And when I heard this I did flee into the forest and did cry. For I knew that what you have spoken is true. But even more I know that you do speak for God. And His words do come from your mouths. Now I would ask of you to teach unto me the ways of God. And I will command my entire kingdom to obey them. And we shall all obey God according to your words. And Gubir spoke saying, It cannot be, for a man must gain his own witness of the truthfulness of these words. For if a man is forced unto belief, he doth not truly believe. Wherefore command that our words should be carried unto all your people that they may read them and learn for themselves. And King Oram did command it.
