Matthew 24:1–28

And ^aJesus went out, and ^bdeparted from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. ²And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, ^cThere shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. ³And as he sat upon ^dthe mount of Olives, ^ethe disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of ^fthe end of the world? ⁴And Jesus answered and said unto them, ^gTake heed that no man deceive you. ⁵For ^hmany shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; ⁱand shall deceive many. ⁶And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ^kye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. ⁷For ^lnation shall rise against nation, and ^mkingdom against kingdom: and there shall be ⁿfamines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. ⁸All these are the beginning of ^osorrows.

^9pThen shall they deliver you up ^qto be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. ¹⁰And then shall many ^rbe offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. ¹¹And many ^sfalse prophets shall rise, and ^tshall deceive many. ¹²And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. ^13uBut he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. ¹⁴And this ^xgospel of the kingdom ^yshall be preached in all ^zthe world ^zzfor a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

¹⁵When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by ^aDaniel the prophet, stand in ^bthe holy place, ^c(whoso readeth, let him understand:) ¹⁶Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: ^17dLet him which is on the ^ehousetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: ¹⁸Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. ¹⁹And ^fwoe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! ²⁰But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: ²¹For then shall be great ^gtribulation, ^ghsuch as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. ²²And except ⁱthose days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for ^kthe elect’s sake those days shall be shortened. ²³Then ^lif any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. ²⁴For there shall arise false Christs, and ^mfalse prophets, and ⁿshall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very ^kelect. ²⁵Behold, I have told you before. ²⁶Wherefore if ^othey shall say unto you, Behold, he is in ^pthe desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the ^qsecret chambers; believe it not. ^27rFor 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. ^28sFor wheresoever the ^sscarcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
