1
He answered me and said, "Measure carefully in your mind, and when you see that some of the predicted signs have occurred,
2
then you will know that it is the very time when the Most High is about to visit the world that he has made.
3
So when there shall appear in the world earthquakes, tumult of peoples, intrigues of nations, wavering of leaders, confusion of princes,
4
then you will know that it was of these that the Most High spoke from the days that were of old, from the beginning.
5
For just as with everything that has occurred in the world, the beginning is evident, and the end manifest;
6
so also are the times of the Most High: the beginnings are manifest in wonders and mighty works, and the end in penalties and in signs.
