Predict, foretell (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

prophesy

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">I believe this is a double definition.<br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">predict</span>' is the first definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(prophesying is a kind of predicting)</span><br/ ><br/ >'<span class="explanation-format__original">foretell</span>' is the second definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(prophesying is a kind of foretelling)</span><br/ ><br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for prophesy that I've seen before include "Foretell - portend" , "Say that something will happen in the future" , "Predict" , "Reveal through divine inspiration" , "Prediction" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
