53 O ye people of the land, that ye would hear my words. And I pray that the anger of the Lord be turned away from you, and that ye would repent and be saved.

54 And now it came to pass that Samuel, the Lamanite, did prophesy a great many more things which can not be written.

55 And behold, he said unto them, Behold, I give unto you a sign: for five years more cometh, and behold, then cometh the Son of God to redeem all those who shall believe on his name.

56 And behold, this will I give unto you for a sign at the time of his coming; for behold, there shall be great lights in heaven, insomuch that in the night before he cometh, there shall be no darkness, insomuch that it shall appear unto man as if it was day;

57 Therefore there shall be one day and a night, and a day, as if it were one day, and there were no night; and this shall be unto you for a sign; for ye shall know of the rising of the sun, and also of its setting;

58 Therefore they shall know of a surety that there shall be two days and a night; nevertheless the night shall not be darkened; and it shall be the night before he is born.

59 And behold there shall be a new star arise, such an one as ye never have beheld; and this also shall be a sign unto you.

60 And behold this is not all, there shall be many signs and wonders in heaven.

61 And it shall come to pass that ye shall all be amazed, and wonder, insomuch that ye shall fall to the earth.

62 And it shall come to pass that whosoever shall believe on the Son of God, the same shall have everlasting life.

63 And behold, thus hath the Lord commanded me, by his angel, that I should come and tell this thing unto you; yea, he hath commanded that I should prophesy these things unto you; yea, he hath said unto me, Cry unto this people, Repent and prepare the way of the Lord.
