“When this passes, on the day of full moon, in the dusk of the early morning, at the time when the sun’s rays strike the mountain tops, then the earth shall behold a youth sitting within the eye of the sun, one like the taboo child of my god.  Afterwards the earth shall behold a great destruction and shall see all the haughty snatched away out of the land; then we shall be blessed, and our seed.”

When his daughters heard the seer’s prophecy, they wondered within themselves that he should prophesy at this distance, without knowing anything about their sister’s mission for which they waited.

As a prophet it was his privilege to proclaim about Kauai those things which he saw would come to pass.

So, before leaving his daughters, he commanded them and said, “My daughters, I am giving you my instructions before leaving you, not, indeed, for long; but I go to announce those things which I have told you, and shall return hither.  Therefore, dwell here in this place, which my god has pointed out to me, and keep yourselves pure until my prophecy is fulfilled.”

The prophet went away, as he had determined, and he went into the presence of the chiefs and men of position, at the place where the chiefs were assembled; there he proclaimed what he had seen.

And first he came to Aiwohikupua and said, “From this day, erect flag signals around your dwelling, and bring inside all whom you love.

“For there comes shortly a destruction over the earth; never has any destruction been seen before like this which is to come; never will any come hereafter when this destruction of which I tell is ended.

“Before the coming of the wonder-worker he will give you a sign of destruction, not over all the people of the land, but over you yourself and your people; then the high ones of earth shall lie down before him and your pride shall be taken from you.

“If you listen to my word, then you will be spared from the destruction that is verily to come; therefore, prepare yourselves at once.”

And because of the seer’s words, he was driven away from before the face of the chief.

Thus he proclaimed to all the chiefs on Kauai, and the chiefs who listened to the seer, they were spared.

He went to Kekalukaluokewa, with his wife and all in their company.

And as he said to Aiwohikupua, so he said to Kekalukaluokewa, and he believed him.

But Waka would not listen, and answered, “If a god is the one to bring destruction, then I have another god to save me and my chiefs.”

And at Waka’s words the seer turned to the chiefs and said, “Do not listen to your grandmother, for a great destruction is coming over the chiefs.  Plant flag signals at once around you, and bring all dear to you inside the signals you have set up, and whoever will not believe me, let them fall in the great day of destruction.

“When that day comes, the old women will lie down before the soles of the feet of that mighty youth, and plead for life, and not get it, because they have disbelieved the words of the prophet.”
