'This Generation' in the Bible

And LORD said to Noah, Come, thou and all thy house into the ark, for I have seen thee righteous before me in this generation.

Thou will keep them, O LORD. Thou will preserve them from this generation forever.

But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, calling to their companions,

The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.

The queen of the south will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.

Truly I say to you, that all these things will come upon this generation.

Truly I say to you, this generation will, no, not pass away, until all these things happen.

And having sighed deeply in his spirit, he says, Why does this generation seek a sign? Truly I am telling you, if a sign will be given to this generation.

Truly I say to you, that this generation will, no, not pass away, until all these things happen.

To what, then will I compare the men of this generation, and to what are they like?

And when the multitudes gathered together he began to say, This generation is evil. They seek a sign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah, the prophet.

For as Jonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of man will be to this generation.

The queen of the south will awake in the judgment with the men of this generation, and will condemn them, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, a greater than Solomon is here.

The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation, and will condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, a greater than Jonah is here.

so that the blood of all the prophets that was shed from the foundation of the world may be required of this generation,

from the blood of Abel to the blood of Zachariah, who perished between the altar and the sanctuary. Yes, I say to you, it will be required of this generation.

(But first it is necessary for him to suffer many things and be rejected from this generation.)

Truly I say to you, that this generation will, no, not pass away until all things happen.
