From the article "Landau said the eighth-century manuscript had been in the Vatican Library for many years, but no one had translated it into English. Syriac is a literary language based on an eastern Aramaic dialect. He said the earliest version of the text probably was written in the second or third century."

This is just some old texts found in the Vatican LIBRARY remember, this has not been validated in any way -- the vatican Library also contains texts from the ancient Greek and other worlds, so this does not in any way indicate the text's validity or authenticity. Furthermore, the text is an 8th century text, supposedly a copy of an earlier one -- but that "supposedly" is a conjecture by Landau.

There is no prophecy about (for or against) Mormonism in this text.
