Matthew 24:1-31
King James Version (KJV)
24Â And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
2Â And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3Â And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
4Â And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5Â For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6Â And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7Â For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8Â All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9Â Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.
10Â And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11Â And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12Â And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13Â But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14Â And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.
15Â When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16Â Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
17Â Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
18Â Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19Â And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20Â But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21Â For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22Â And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
23Â Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24Â For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25Â Behold, I have told you before.
26Â Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27Â For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28Â For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29Â Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun 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:
30Â And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31Â And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Mark 13:1-27
13Â And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!
2Â And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3Â And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
4Â Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?
5Â And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:
6Â For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
7Â And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.
8Â For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
9Â But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.
10Â And the gospel must first be published among all nations.
11Â But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
12Â Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death.
13Â And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14Â But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:
15Â And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house:
16Â And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment.
17Â But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
18Â And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.
19Â For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.
20Â And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.
21Â And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:
22Â For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.
23Â But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
24Â But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
25Â And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.
26Â And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
27Â And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.
Luke 21:5-27
5Â And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,
6Â As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
7Â And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?
8Â And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
9Â But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.
10Â Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11Â And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
12Â But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake.
13Â And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14Â Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
15Â For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16Â And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17Â And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake.
18Â But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
19Â In your patience possess ye your souls.
20Â And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
21Â Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
22Â For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23Â But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24Â And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
25Â And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
26Â Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27Â And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
