13:1 And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings:

13:2 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:

13:3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately:

13:4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled:

13:5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any [man] deceive you:

13:6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and shall deceive many:

13:7 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:

13:8 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:

13:9 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:

13:10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations:

13:11 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:

13:12 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:

13:13 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:

13:14 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:

13:15 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:

13:16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment:

13:17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days:

13:18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter:

13:19 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:

13:20 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:

13:21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here [is] Christ; or, lo, [he is] there; believe [him] not:

13:22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if [it were] possible, even the elect:

13:23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things:

13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light:

13:25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken:

13:26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory:

13:27 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:

13:28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near:

13:29 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, [even] at the doors:

13:30 Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done:

13:31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away:

13:32 But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father:

13:33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is:

13:34 as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch:

13:35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

13:36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping:

13:37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch:
