Segment 1א׳

(במדבר כ״ד:י״ז) אֶרְאֶנּוּ וְלֹא עַתָּה, דְּהָא מִלִּין אִלֵּין מִנַּיְיהוּ אִתְקָיָּימוּ בְּהַהוּא זִמְנָא, וּמִנַּיְיהוּ לְבָתַר, וּמִנַּיְיהוּ בְּזִמְנָא דְּמַלְכָּא מְשִׁיחָא. (מה שחסר כאן תמצא בזוהר חדש דף ס"ח ע"א עי"ש) תְּנָן, זַמִּין קוּדְשָׁא בְּרִיךְ הוּא לְמִבְנֵי יְרוּשָׁלַם, וּלְאַחְזָאָה חַד כֹּכָבָא קְבִיעָא, מְנַצְּצָא בְּע' רָהֲטִין, וּבְע' זִיקִין נַהֲרִין מִנֵּיהּ בְּאֶמְצָעוּת רְקִיעַ, וְיִשְׁתָּאֲלוּן בֵּיהּ ע' כֹּכָבִין אַחֲרָנִין, וִיהֵא נָהִיר וְלָהִיט ע' יוֹמִין.

since some of these things were fulfilled at that time and some later, while some are left for the Messiah. We have learnt that God will one day build Jerusalem and display a certain fixed star flashing with seventy streamers and seventy flames in the midst of the firmament, and it will shine and flash for seventy days.

Segment 2ב׳

וּבְיוֹמָא שְׁתִיתָאָה, יִתְחֲזֵי בְּכ"ה יוֹמִין לְיַרְחָא שְׁתִּיתָאָה, וְיִתְכְּנִישׁ בְּיוֹמָא שְׁבִיעָאָה, לְסוֹף ע' יוֹמִין, יוֹמָא קַדְמָאָה יִתְחֲזֵי בְּקַרְתָּא (חדא) דְּרוֹמָא. וְהַהוּא יוֹמָא יִנְפְּלוּן ג' שׁוּרִין עִלָּאִין מֵהַהִיא קַרְתָּא דְּרוֹמִי, וְהֵיכָלָא רַבְרְבָא יִנְפּוֹל, וְשַׁלִּיטָא דְּהַהִיא קַרְתָּא יְמוּת. כְּדֵין יִתְפָּשַּׁט הַהוּא כֹּכָבָא לְאִתְחֲזָאָה בְּעָלְמָא. וּבְהַהוּא זִמְנָא יִתְּעֲרוּן קְרָבִין תַּקִּיפִין בְּעָלְמָא, לְכָל ד' סִטְרִין, וּמְהֵימְנוּתָא לָא יִשְׁתְּכַּח בֵּינַיְיהוּ.

It will appear on the sixth day of the week on the twenty-fifth of the sixth month, and will disappear on the seventh day after seventy days. On the first day it will be seen in the city of Rome, and on that day three lofty walls of that city shall fall and a mighty palace shall be overthrown, and the ruler of that city shall die. Then that star will become visible throughout the whole world. In that time mighty wars will arise in all quarters of the world, and no faith shall be found among men.

Segment 3ג׳

וּבְאֶמְצָעוּת עָלְמָא, כַּד יִתְּנְהִיר הַהוּא כֹּכָבָא, בְּאֶמְצָעוּת רְקִיעָא. יְקוּם מַלְכָּא חַד רַב וְשָׁלִיט בְּעַלְמָא, וְיִתְגָּאֶה רוּחֵיהּ עַל כָּל מַלְכִין, וְיִתְּעַר קְרָבִין בִּתְרֵין סִטְרִין, וְיִתְגַּבָּר עָלַיְיהוּ.

When that star shines in the midst of the firmament, a certain powerful king shall arise who will seek domination over all kings and make war on two sides and prevail against them.
