This is God’s promise which He will manifest Himself through five earthquakes. And God’s promise will not be deferred and must come to pass. It should be remembered that prophecies are of two kinds.

If such a warning comes from God Almighty, it can be averted through expressions of fear and repentance, and seeking forgiveness, or giving of alms and offering supplications. The prophecy made by the Prophet Jonah as , for instance, was averted and did not come to 18 God is about to reveal Himself. [Translator]
