22 “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

22 And if those days had not been cut short, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

22 In fact, unless that time of calamity is shortened, not a single person will survive. But it will be shortened for the sake of God’s chosen ones.

22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

22 God has decided to make that terrible time short. Otherwise, no one would go on living. But God will make that time short to help the people he has chosen.

22 And except those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

22 and if those days had not been cut short, no flesh had been saved; but on account of the elect those days shall be cut short.

22 If God does not reduce the number of those days, no one will be saved. But those days will be reduced because of those whom God has chosen. 

22 Unless those days were limited, no one would survive. But those days will be limited because of the elect.

22 And if those days had not been cut short, no one would be saved, but for the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

22 And unless those days had been shortened, no human being would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be shortened.

22 If the time had not been cut short, no one would live. But because of God’s chosen people, it will be shortened.

27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

27 For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

27 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.

27 For as the lightning flashes in the east and shines to the west, so it will be when the Son of Man comes.

27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

27 When the Son of Man comes, he will be seen by everyone, like lightning flashing from the east to the west.

27 For as the lightning cometh forth from the east, and is seen even unto the west; so shall be the coming of the Son of man.

27 For as the lightning goes forth from the east and shines to the west, so shall be the coming of the Son of man.

27 The Son of Man will come again just as lightning flashes from east to west.

27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

27 For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

27 For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so the coming of the Son of Man will be.

27 Lightning that comes from the east can be seen in the west. It will be the same when the Son of Man comes.
