And ye will be about to hear of wars and rumors of war: see, be not terrified; for all must be, but the end is not yet. For nation shall be raised up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines, and plagues, and shakings in places. And all these the beginning of anguish. Then shall they deliver you to pressure, and they shall kill you: and ye shall be hated by all nations, for my name. And then shall many be offended, and they shall deliver up one another, and they shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall be raised up, and deceive many. And because anxiety shall increase, the love of many shall be cooled. But he having persevered to the end, this shall be saved.

Therefore, when ye see the abomination of devastation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place, (let him reading, understand:) Then let them in Judea flee to the mountain; He upon the house-tops, let him not come down to take away anything out of his house: And he in the field, let him not turn back to take up his garments: And woe to those having in the womb, and to those giving suck, in those days!

For as the lightning comes forth from the sunrisings, and shines to the descents; so also shall be the arrival of the Son of man. For wherever be the fall, there will the eagles be gathered together. And quickly after the pressure of those days, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from the heavens, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken; And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven; and then shall the tribes of the earth lament bitterly, and they shall see the Son of man coming upon the clouds of heaven with power and much glory. And he shall send his messengers, with the great voice of the trumpet, and they shall bring together his chosen from the four winds, from the extremities of the heavens to the extremities.
