which did cause the earth to shake as if it were to divide asunder.

In the name of the Almighty God, I command you that ye touch me not,

for I am filled with the power of God,

even unto the consuming of my flesh;

and whoso shall lay his hands upon me

shall wither even as a dried reed;

and he shall be as naught before the power of God,

for God shall smite him.

I say, trample under their feet

but I would speak in other words —

from the four quarters of the earth.
