Examples from texts

If something happens later on, it'll be: 'Ah, the holy man foresaw it, prophesied it!' though it's a poor sort of prophecy, flopping like that. '
Потом, что случится: "ах, ведь это старец святой предрек, напророчествовал", -- хотя какое бы в том пророчество, что он лбом стукнулся?

On that particular morning, the old servant foresaw a more grievous attack than usual, and poured forth an amazing flood of talk, while continuing her wary manoeuvres with the spoon, which threatened to burn her tongue.
В это утро старая служанка предчувствовала особенно жестокий припадок. И, не переставая осторожно работать ложкой, обжигавшей ей язык, она болтала без умолку.

It was a sudden, extreme effort of his intellectual faculties, which was bound in his overstrained condition, of course-Sofya Matveyevna foresaw it with distress all the time he was talking-to result immediately afterwards in extreme exhaustion.
Это было внезапное напряжение умственных сил, которое, конечно, - и это с тоской предвидела Софья Матвеевна во всё время его рассказа, - должно было отозваться тотчас же потом чрезвычайным упадком сил в его уже расстроенном организме.

Prince Ivan Ivanovitch was a commander-in-chief, as well as old, wealthy, and a bachelor. Consequently, I foresaw that vis-a-vis conversation between him and myself - myself a sixteen-year-old student! - was not likely to be interesting.
Князь Иван Иваныч был генерал-аншеф, старик, богач и один; стало быть, я, шестнадцатилетний студент, должен был иметь с ним прямые отношения, которые, я предчувствовал, не могли быть для меня лестны.
