And Jesus went out, and was going forth from the temple, and his disciples came to [him] to show him the buildings of the temple.
But he answered and said to them, See ye not all these things? Verily I say to you, Not a stone shall be in anywise left here on a stone, which shall not be thrown down.
And as he was sitting upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, Tell us when shall these things be? and what [is] the sign of thy coming, and of the completion of the age?
And Jesus answering said to them, See that no one mislead you.
For many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ, and they shall mislead many.
And ye shall be about to hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled; for they must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines and pestilences and earthquakes in places.
But all these [are the] beginning of travails.
Then shall they give you up to tribulation and shall kill you; and ye shall be hated by all the nations for my name’s sake.
And then shall many be stumbled, and give up one another, and hate one another:
and many false prophets shall arise, and shall mislead many.
And because lawlessness shall be multiplied, the love of the many shall grow cool.
But he that endured to [the] end shall be saved.
And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole habitable [earth] for a witness to all the nations, and then shall the end come.
When therefore ye shall see the abomination of desolation that was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in [the] holy place (let the reader understand),
then let those in Judea flee unto the mountains;
let not him that is upon the house come down to take the things out of the house;
and let not him that is in the field return back to take his cloak.
But woe to those with child and to them that suckle in those days!
But pray that your flight be not in winter nor on Sabbath.
For then shall be great tribulation, such as hath not been from world’s beginning until now, no, nor ever shall be.
And except those days had been cut short, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days shall be cut short.
Then if anyone say to you, Behold, here [is] the Christ, or there, believe [him] not;
for there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall give great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even the elect.
Behold, I have told you before.
If therefore they say to you, Behold, [he is] in the desert, go not forth; Behold, [he is] in the inner chambers, believe not.
For as the lightning cometh forth from the east and appeareth unto the west, so shall be the coming of the Son of man.
Wherever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered.
But immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven; and then shall all the tribes of the land mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
And he shall send his angels with great sound of trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from [one] end of heavens to the other.
Now learn the parable from the fig-tree. When its branch is now become tender, and putteth forth its leaves, ye know that the summer is nigh;
even so ye also, when ye see all these things, know that it is near, at the doors.
Verily I say to you, This generation shall not pass away till all these things have come to pass.
The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Of that day and hour knoweth no one, not even the angels of the heavens, but the Father only.
But as the days of Noah, so shall be the coming of the Son of man;
for as in those days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage until the day that Noah entered into the ark,
and they knew not until the flood came and took them all away, so shall the coming of the Son of man be.
Then shall two be in the field; one is taken and one is left.
Two women [shall be] grinding at the mill, one is taken and one is left.
Watch therefore, for ye know not on what day your Lord doth come.
But know this, that if the house-master had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be digged through.
Therefore, be ye also ready, for in an hour that ye think not the Son of man cometh.
Who then is the faithful and prudent bondman whom his lord set over his household, to give them their food in due season?
Blessed [is] that bondman whom his lord on coming shall find so doing.
Verily I say to you, that he will set him over all that he hath.
But if that evil bondman shall say in his heart, My lord tarrieth;
and shall begin to beat his fellow-bondmen, and shall eat and drink with the drunken,
the lord of that bondman shall come in a day when he expecteth not, and in an hour that he knoweth not,
and shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
