Dear Citizena,
Here is the translation. Only it wasn't "a little" longer - it takes 6
pages (the Swedish text was 1.5 pages).

The Fisherman from the Arctic Sea: Anton Johansson (1858-1929)
He was born in Sweden. His family emigrated to Norway in 1874. He
lived as a fisherman and a tiller in Lebesby, part of the Province
Finnmark (= the Finnish Mark). He was also active in the community, as
a volunteer policeman and for many years he was also an assistant of
the Norwegian Land Survey Agency. Already in his early youth he had
visions and an inside voice had told him that he had been called to
warn the people from mischief.
He foresaw various disasters at the same time, also a devastating storm:
?About the same time as the earthquake, I also experienced in my
spirit a dreadful gale that hurtled along on two oceans. Because I saw
the volcanic eruption at the same time, I am not sure, which of these
catastrophes happened first. It is difficult for me to differentiate
between them, but I think it was the gale that was first. I cannot
say, to which extent these two catastrophes are connected. They must
have happened during the autumn or spring, because there is no snow
lying around. I have been also led to the Pacific Ocean, more exactly
to the Panama Canal, where this gale had started. The names of these
places were stated very clearly to me, and from that point in space,
where I found myself, I could quite exactly distinguish between
different forms: enormous mountain ranges, rocky deserts, and islands
were detached from each other.
From this area the gale moved towards north and north-east, directing
North America. The gale moved on the sea-side countries, with their
big cities (of millions), plantations, ports and other assets, with
such an awful force, that whole areas have been desolated and the
ground has been equalised. A mass of buildings has been downright
blown, and wreckage swirled through the air. The big plantations have
been desolated, highly visible territories have been afloat, and
constantly large waves cast themselves on the land. All over countless
ships have sank, or have flung on the shore. Ports and dockyards were
demolished in a way ? so has the voice told me ? it is questionable if
they ever could ever be reconstructed. I heard in addition, that the
Americans will be unable to reconstruct everything, and therefore the
activity and the navigation in this area would be inactive for a long
time.
Among the plantation states, Virginia has been particularly damaged,
but also other states have been taken along. It wasn?t much better in
the Gulf of Mexico and in states further in, including Florida. The
gale raved through a wide belt of land, from the Atlantic Coast to the
Mississippi Valley. In the In den Mississippi Valley States the gale
raged with just the same force it had on the Atlantic Coast; between
the two territories I saw an infertile, stony environment, that was
partly unhurt.
Among the North American cities the following could be described as
especially affected: Chicago, Minneapolis, Washington and New York;
the latter was also struck the worst. Ruins and assailed buildings
attested that; the gale went through the street of the metropolis, and
high skyscrapers staggered. The voice explained, that these buildings
are threatened by demolition. Everything was full with clouds of
smoke; small and larger objects have been torn apart by the storm, and
swirled in quantities through the air. In many neighbourhoods blasts
broke.
In the port, breakers in the size of houses gush the land. Large
lagers and storage houses collapsed and became a prey of the see. Many
ships flung to the land, others sank in the port. Big fires raged not
only in New York City but also in its environment, and the sky looked
for a moment like a sea of flames. I also saw huge fires in the
Canadian woodlands.
I heard that Canada was the victim of large fire catastrophes even
more; I saw it burns several times. But also the devastation by the
gale was awful in these lands, and I saw how grand forests twisted.
The area around the Big Lakes seemed especially badly affected. Quebec
was mentioned more than once among the cities most damaged. The gale
continued it way from North America and Canada over the Atlantic to
Europe, in which the western and south-western countries were the
first to be caught in the raving storm.
All of the countries of the North Sea were tangibly affected, but no
country seemed to me so affected as Great Britain and in there,
especially the east coast. The voice said, that this disaster is the
punishment for England?s arrogance. The twilight lay on all of the
northern countries. One could not see a star and wind blew from the
see. There was no snow on the Norwegian territories yet. In spirit I
was led to the nearby of Trondheim. I stand over the shore and looked
over the sea. The earth began suddenly to rock.
The houses of the city trembled like aspen leaves and several tall
wood buildings on the shore collapsed. Immediately afterwards an awful
roar has risen from the sea and a huge wave approached to the shore
wrecked on the rock face. In the plain areas the flood proceeded into
the country, taking with it large parts of Trondheim and causing great
damages. Large lagers and storage houses collapsed and were washed
into the sea. The flood reached all over the Norwegian shore, from
Southern Norway to the area of Bod?. I heard the names of many of the
cities over there.
I was then led in spirit to the big towns on the English east coast,
where the forces of nature caused the worst damage. All of the eastern
English coast was drawn till deep into the country. The city of Hull
and its nearby areas were especially afflicted. There must have been
an especially serious impact on Scotland, because it seemed, that
larger parts have sunk into the see. Then I saw London. Here the
catastrophes reached their zenith. Ports and wharfs were totally
destructed, countless houses demolished, and the wrecks were covered
with water. The ships in the port have been sunk; some have flung as
far as between the houses. In the sea ships have sunk and countless
sailors have drowned.
The breakers then forced themselves through the English Channel and
ruined there ports and cities on both sides. Rouen has been
especially affected, but also other cities on the French northern
shore have suffered badly. I don?t recall anymore the names of these
cities. Larger parts of Holland, of Belgium and of the northern German
shore were horribly afflicted, too. Antwerp and Hamburg belong to the
cities that have had especially large damage. I also saw the latter
(=Hamburg) and it seemed, that after London, it suffered the worst. I
have been also told that huge amounts of goods have been lost there.
The consequences were felt also in the western and northern Danish
coast and the cities there, and in the whole of Sweden?s western
coast, especially G?teborg, H?lsingborg und Malm?.
Of the rest of the countries in the continent, it has been also this
time Belgium, the Netherlands and the northern German coast that have
saw the most devastation. Again whole pieces of land were under water.
The flooding and the desolation by the gale dominated also in western
Germany. In Italy there has been serious affliction and especially in
Sicily. Italy was also affected by another disaster; which nature at
that point I didn?t know. I heard that also Austria and especially the
area of Vienna has suffered under the gale. It wasn?t better in
France, where the South, the western coast as well as the coast
regions next to the Channel were demolished the worst. Marseille and
Rouen have been mentioned as badly affected cities.
Spain was also very affected. England was rocked by the raging gale
just like North America. In the ports and along the shore countless
ships have sunk. Especially Southampton on the southern English coast
, like all the cities in both sides of the Channel, was badly
affected. The gale advanced above France, Spain and Morocco into the
Mediterranean. All of the countries in the area have suffered
devastation. The gale then raved above the Black Sea, Crimea and
southern Russia. From there it proceeded to northern Russia, to the
coast of Murman and Siberia. On its way the Ladoga and Onega lakes
have been battered.?
Johansson also foresaw lots of the Third World War. In the book
'Hellseher schauen in die Zukunft' (= Clairvoyances Foresee the
Future) by Dr. Norbert Backmund Persia and Turkey would be occupied by
presumably Russian forces and would lose their oil-resources and rich.
India would be occupied by the Chinese. The English would lose their
predominance in India for good (Anton couldn?t remember more exactly
here).
?A ?germ war? causes the death of approximately 25 million people. The
Balkan would be occupied by Russia. It would be very bad for it
(=Balkan). There would be lots of destruction in Italy and many would
become homeless. A red storm against France would be initiated
by/through Hungary, Austria, northern Italy and Switzerland. France
would be occupied from within and from outside. The American weapon
stocks there would fall in the hands of the East. The Bolshevism would
be the master of France for a long time, and would lead a war against
England, Spain and Scandinavia from there.
He war will be terrible for the world and above all for France.
Diseases that were unknown before that arouse blindness, craziness,
and total destruction of the human body, would spread among masses of
people, above all among young French people. Germany would be attacked
from the East. There will be a civil war there, Germans would fight
against Germans. It will be free again, like Poland and other
countries in the East. Finnland will fall and be oppressed. The
Russians and the French at their behest would intervene in Sweden and
in Norway. G?teborg will be occupied by the French.
Both kingdoms would lose the war and would have to submit their
northern provinces to the Russians. England and all of the countries
around the Baltic See would be destructed by a horrible storm, and
parts of Scotland would sink in the sea, cities would go under water.
The English currency would lose its value, and it will lose most of
its colonies, the East Bloc would cause an explosion in England
(Revolution) that would surpass the German civil war in its
bloodiness. There will be a bloody war in Ireland, rebellion and
bloodshed in southern Wales. England?s predominance would be forever
lost.
Five wars threaten the United States after 1907. One of this war would
consist of an entanglement with Canada. Russia would launch an attack
against this country, so the American troupes would be unable to
assist the ailing Europe. As a consequence of the usage of new type of
weapons, there are horrible gales and catastrophic fires in the United
States and the big cities are demolished. Such a gale, that destructs
everything, would start in the northern, then the northeastern
direction over the United States, towards Europe, where the
Mediterranean countries are above all devastated, and then would
proceed towards East. A quarter of all of humanity would fall victim
to this war. Lastly, two civil wars would break in the USA that would
lead to the division of the country to four or five parts.?
Preconditions for the out break of the Third World War are according
to Johansson the following circumstances:
- It is summer in northern Sweden, and there are terrible weapons;
- There is a socialist regime in Sweden when the war breaks;
- There is an English war in Ireland;
- There is no snow yet on the Norwegian mountains;
- The gale comes in springtime or in the autumn.

I hope this answered your question. Please note, regarding Johansson's
origin, that he is from a region called the Finnmark
(nor/swe.:Finnmarken; which literally means Finnish Mark), but he's
not *from* Finnland - and you might want to amend the former text
consequently. Here is a bit about the region:
