7/ What does Malbeth speak of, and who explains it to who and when? (if I'm not being clear let me know)

Malbeth speaks of a reunited kingdom but the rest i do not know...

he could of also spoke of Angmars wrath?

To make the question clearer - I am looking for a prophesy stated in ROTK.

over the land lies a showdow
westward reaching wings of darkness
the tower trembles;to the tombs of kings
doom aproches;the dead awaken;
for the hour has come for the outh breakers;
at the stone of erch they shall stand again
and here there a horn in the hills ringing
who shall the horn be?who shall call them
from the grey twilight,the forgotten people?
there heir of him to whom the oath swore
from the north he shall come,need will drive him:
he shall pass the doors of the dead.


Aragorn is telling Gimli and Legolas this when there about to enter the paths of the dead. it talks about the paths of the dead.
