1 And as He was going out of the temple, one of his
disciples saith to Him, Master, behold what fine stones
are here, and what stately buildings!
2 And Jesus answering
said unto him, Thou seest these grand buildings:
but there shall not be left one note stone upon another,
which shall not be thrown down.
3 And as He
was sitting on the mount of Olives over against the
temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked
Him privately,
4 saying, Tell us when these things shall
be, and what shall be the sign when all these things are
note to be accomplished.
5 But Jesus note answered them and
-- --
said, Beware least any one deceive you:
6 for many shall
come in my name saying, note I am note the Christ, and shall
deceive many.
7 And when ye hear of wars, and rumors
of wars, be not troubled; for such things must
happen; but the end will not be yet.
8 For nation shall
rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and
there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and note famines
and note troubles: these will be the beginnings of
sorrows.
9 But look to yourselves; for they will deliver you up
to councils, and note synagogues: and ye shall be scourged,
and set before governors and kings on my account, for
a testimony against them.
10 And the gospel must first be
published to all nations.
11 But when they shall lead you
to deliver you up, be not anxiously careful beforehand
what ye shall speak, neither premeditate: but whatever
shall be note suggested to you at that very time, this speak:
for it is not you that speak, but the holy Spirit.
12 noteOne
brother shall betray another note to death, and the father
the son: and children shall note appear against their parents,
and cause them to be put to death.
13 And ye shall be
hated by all men for my note sake: but he that note endures
to the end note shall be saved.
14 Now when ye shall see the note desolating abomination,
spoken of by Daniel the prophet, note set up where it ought
not to be, (let him that readeth, attend) then let those
in Judea flee to the mountains:
15 and let not him that is
at the top of the house come down into the house, nor
go in to fetch any thing out of his house:
16 nor let him
that is in the field return back note for his clothes.
17 But
wo to them that are with child, and to them that give
suck in those days.
18 But pray that your flight may not
be in the winter;
19 for in those days shall be such affliction
as note never was from the beginning of the note world,
note unto this day, nor ever shall be.
20 And if the Lord
did not shorten those days, note none could note escape: but
for the sake of the note elect, whom He hath chosen, He
-- --
note hath shortened note those days.
21 And then if any shall say
to you, Behold, here is the note Christ, or, Behold, He is
there, believe it not:
22 for there shall rise up false Christs,
and false prophets, note who shall work signs and wonders,
to seduce, if possible, even the elect.
23 But do ye beware:
behold, I have told you all before.
24 But in those days, after that affliction, the sun shall
be darkened, and the moon shall not give it's light;
and the stars of heaven shall fall,
25 and the powers in the
heavens shall be shaken;
26 and then shall they see the
Son of man coming in clouds, with great power and
glory.
27 And He will then send forth his messengers,
and will gather his elect together from the four winds,
from the end of the earth to the end of heaven.
28 Now
learn a parable from the fig-tree: when it's branch is
note tender and bringeth forth leaves, ye know that summer
is nigh;
29 so ye also, when ye see these things come to
pass, know that note He is near, even at the doors.
30 Verily
I tell you, that this generation shall not pass away until
all these things be fulfilled.
31 Heaven and earth shall
pass away, but my words note cannot pass away.
32 But of THAT day and note hour knoweth no one,
not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but
the Father only.
33 Take heed therefore, watch and
pray; for ye know not when the time is:
34 as a man
travelling abroad, who left his house, and gave note charge
to his servants, note to each his work, and bid the porter
be watchful.
35 Watch ye therefore; for ye know not
when the note master of the house cometh: (in the evening,
or at midnight, or at the cock-crowing, or in the
morning:
36 ) least coming on a sudden he should find
you sleeping.
37 And what I say to you, I say to all,
Watch.
