LUKE Chapter 21 1 He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury; 2 and he saw a poor widow put in two copper coins. 3 And he said, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them; 4 for they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all the living that she had." 5 And as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with noble stones and offerings, he said, 6 "As for these things which you see, the days will come when there shall not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down." 7 And they asked him, "Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign when this is about to take place?" 8 And he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he!' and, 'The time is at hand!' Do not go after them. 9 And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be terrified; for this must first take place, but the end will not be at once." 10 Then he said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; 11 there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven. 12 But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake. 13 This will be a time for you to bear testimony. 14 Settle it therefore in your minds, not to meditate beforehand how to answer; 15 for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict. 16 You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends, and some of you they will put to death; 17 you will be hated by all for my name's sake. 18 But not a hair of your head will perish. 19 By your endurance you will gain your lives. 20 "But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation has come near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it; 22 for these are days of vengeance, to fulfil all that is written. 23 Alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days! For great distress shall be upon the earth and wrath upon this people; 24 they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led captive among all nations; and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. 25 "And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, 26 men fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 27 And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28 Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near." 29 And he told them a parable: "Look at the fig tree, and all the trees; 30 as soon as they come out in leaf, you see for yourselves and know that the summer is already near. 31 So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near. 32 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all has taken place. 33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. 34 "But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a snare; 35 for it will come upon all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth. 36 But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of man." 37 And every day he was teaching in the temple, but at night he went out and lodged on the mount called Olivet. 38 And early in the morning all the people came to him in the temple to hear him.

MARK Mark 12:41 And he sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the multitude putting money into the treasury. Many rich people put in large sums. Mark 12:42 And a poor widow came, and put in two copper coins, which make a penny. Mark 12:43 And he called his disciples to him, and said to them, "Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than all those who are contributing to the treasury. Mark 12:44 For they all contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, her whole living." Mark 13:1 And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, "Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!" Mark 13:2 And Jesus said to him, "Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down." Mark 13:3 And as he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, Mark 13:4 "Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign when these things are all to be accomplished?" Mark 13:5 And Jesus began to say to them, "Take heed that no one leads you astray. Mark 13:6 Many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he!' and they will lead many astray. Mark 13:7 And when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed; this must take place, but the end is not yet. Mark 13:8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places, there will be famines; this is but the beginning of the birth-pangs. Mark 13:9 "But take heed to yourselves; for they will deliver you up to councils; and you will be beaten in synagogues; and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to bear testimony before them. Mark 13:10 And the gospel must first be preached to all nations. Mark 13:11 And when they bring you to trial and deliver you up, do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say; but say whatever is given you in that hour, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit. Mark 13:12 And brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death; Mark 13:13 and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved. Mark 13:14 "But when you see the desolating sacrilege set up where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; Mark 13:15 let him who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter his house, to take anything away; Mark 13:16 and let him who is in the field not turn back to take his mantle. Mark 13:17 And alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days! Mark 13:18 Pray that it may not happen in winter. Mark 13:19 For in those days there will be such tribulation as has not been from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be. Mark 13:20 And if the Lord had not shortened the days, no human being would be saved; but for the sake of the elect, whom he chose, he shortened the days. Mark 13:21 And then if any one says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or'Look, there he is!' do not believe it. Mark 13:22 False Christs and false prophets will arise and show signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, the elect. Mark 13:23 But take heed; I have told you all things beforehand. Mark 13:24 "But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, Mark 13:25 and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. Mark 13:26 And then they will see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory. Mark 13:27 And then he will send out the angels, and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven. Mark 13:28 "From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near. Mark 13:29 So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that he is near, at the very gates. Mark 13:30 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away before all these things take place. Mark 13:31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. Mark 13:32 "But of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Mark 13:33 Take heed, watch; for you do not know when the time will come. Mark 13:34 It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to be on the watch. Mark 13:35 Watch therefore for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning Mark 13:36 lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. Mark 13:37 And what I say to you I say to all: Watch."

MATTHEW Matthew 24:1 Jesus left the temple and was going away, when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple. Matthew 24:2 But he answered them, "You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down." Matthew 24:3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the close of the age?" Matthew 24:4 And Jesus answered them, "Take heed that no one leads you astray. Matthew 24:5 For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and they will lead many astray. Matthew 24:6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not alarmed; for this must take place, but the end is not yet. Matthew 24:7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places: Matthew 24:8 all this is but the beginning of the birth-pangs. Matthew 24:9 "Then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and put you to death; and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake. Matthew 24:10 And then many will fall away, and betray one another, and hate one another. Matthew 24:11 And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. Matthew 24:12 And because wickedness is multiplied, most men's love will grow cold. Matthew 24:13 But he who endures to the end will be saved. Matthew 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come. Matthew 24:15 "So when you see the desolating sacrilege spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), Matthew 24:16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; Matthew 24:17 let him who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house; Matthew 24:18 and let him who is in the field not turn back to take his mantle. Matthew 24:19 And alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days! Matthew 24:20 Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a sabbath. Matthew 24:21 For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. Matthew 24:22 And if those days had not been shortened, no human being would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. Matthew 24:23 Then if any one says to you, 'Lo, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it. Matthew 24:24 For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. Matthew 24:25 Lo, I have told you beforehand. Matthew 24:26 So, if they say to you, 'Lo, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out; if they say, 'Lo, he is in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. Matthew 24:27 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. Matthew 24:28 Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together. Matthew 24:29 "Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken; Matthew 24:30 then will appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory; Matthew 24:31 and he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Matthew 24:32 "From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near. Matthew 24:33 So also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very gates. Matthew 24:34 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all these things take place. Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. Matthew 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. Matthew 24:37 As were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of man. Matthew 24:38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, Matthew 24:39 and they did not know until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of man. Matthew 24:40 Then two men will be in the field; one is taken and one is left. Matthew 24:41 Two women will be grinding at the mill; one is taken and one is left. Matthew 24:42 Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. Matthew 24:43 But know this, that if the householder had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched and would not have let his house be broken into. Matthew 24:44 Therefore you also must be ready; for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Matthew 24:45 "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time? Matthew 24:46 Blessed is that servant whom his master when he comes will find so doing. Matthew 24:47 Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions. Matthew 24:48 But if that wicked servant says to himself, 'My master is delayed,' Matthew 24:49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eats and drinks with the drunken, Matthew 24:50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know, Matthew 24:51 and will punish him, and put him with the hypocrites; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.
