The Prophecy ends with "The one with the power to vanquish the Dark
Lord WILL BE BORN as the Seventh month dies (this is Harry).
JKR stated in an interview that, "She and Trelawney worded the
Prophecy very carefully". There are two - THE ONE BORN as the
seventh month dies and THE ONE WILL BE BORN when the seventh month
dies.
"B.G."
