2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

15 "So when you see the dreadful desecration, of which the prophet Daniel spoke, set up in the Holy Place"??he reader must take note of this??16 "then those who are in Judea must fly to the hills;
15 “Therefore when you see the (T)abomination of desolation which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in (U)the holy place ((V)let the reader understand),
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
15 “So when you see the abomination that causes desolation,(e)(f) spoken of by the prophet Daniel,(N) standing in the holy place”(O) (let the reader understand(g)),
15 "So when you see the destructive desecration, mentioned by the prophet Daniel, standing in the Holy Place (let the reader take note),
16 a man on the roof of his house must not go down to get things out of it,
16 then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains.
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
16 “then those in Judea must flee to the mountains!
16 then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains.
19 And pray that you may not have to fly in winter or on the Sabbath,
19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
19 Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days!
19 "How terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or who are nursing babies in those days!
20 for there will be greater misery then than there has ever been from the beginning of creation until now, or ever will be again.
20 But pray that your flight will not be in the winter, or on a Sabbath.
20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
20 Pray that your escape may not be in winter or on a Sabbath.
20 Pray that it may not be in winter or on a Sabbath when you flee,
21 If those days had not been cut short, nobody would have escaped, but for the sake of God's people those days will be cut short.
21 For then there will be a (Y)great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will.
21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
21 For at that time there will be great tribulation,(Q) the kind that hasn’t taken place from the beginning of the world until now and never will again!
21 because at that time there will be great suffering, the kind that hasn't happened from the beginning of the world until now and certainly won't ever happen again.
22 "If anyone says to you at that time, 'Look! here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it,
22 Unless those days had been cut short, no (j)life would have been saved; but for (Z)the sake of the (k)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 Unless those days were limited, no one would(i) survive.(j) But those days will be limited because of the elect.(R)
22 If those days hadn't been limited, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be limited.
23 for false Christs and false prophets will appear, and they will show great signs and wonders to mislead God's chosen people if they can.
23 (AA)Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the (l)Christ,’ or ‘(m)There He is,’ do not believe him.
23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
23 “If anyone tells you then, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’(S) or, ‘Over here!’ do not believe it!(T)
23 "At that time, if anyone says to you, "Look! Here's the Messiah!' or "There he is!', don't believe it,
24 Here I have told you beforehand.
24 For false Christs and (AB)false prophets will arise and will (n)show great (o)(AC)signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even (AD)the (p)elect.
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
24 False messiahs(k) and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders to lead astray,(U) if possible, even the elect.
24 because false messiahs and false prophets will appear and display great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
26 For just as the lightning starts in the east and flashes to the west, so the coming of the Son of Man will be.
26 So if they say to you, ‘Behold, He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out, or, ‘Behold, He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe them.
26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
26 So if they tell you, ‘Look, He’s in the wilderness!’ don’t go out; ‘Look, He’s in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it.
26 So if they say to you, "Look! He's in the wilderness,' don't go out looking for him. And if they say, "Look! He's in the storeroom,' don't believe it,
27 Wherever there is a dead body, the vultures will flock.
27 (AE)For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes even to the west, so will the (AF)coming of the (AG)Son of Man be.
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 comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.(V)
27 because just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
28 "But immediately after the misery of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not shed its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the forces of the sky will shake.
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
28 Wherever there's a corpse, there the vultures will gather.
29 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will lament when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, in all his power and splendor.
29 “But immediately after the (AI)tribulation of those days (AJ)the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and (AK)the stars will fall from (r)the sky, and the powers of (s)the heavens will be shaken.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
29 “Immediately after the tribulation(X) of those days:The sun will be darkened,and the moon will not shed its light;the stars will fall from the sky,and the celestial powers will be shaken.
29 "Immediately after the troubles of those days, "The sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of heaven will be shaken loose.'
30 And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet-call, and they will gather his chosen people from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.
30 And then (AL)the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see (AM)the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
30 “Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the peoples of the earth(m) will mourn;(n) and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.(Y)
30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all "the tribes of the land will mourn' when they see "the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven' with power and great glory.
31 "Let the fig tree teach you the lesson. As soon as its branches grow soft and put forth leaves, you know that summer is coming.
31 And (AN)He will send forth His angels with (AO)a great trumpet and they will gather together His (t)(AP)elect from (AQ)the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.
31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
31 He will send out His angels with a loud trumpet,(Z) and they will gather His elect from the four winds,(AA) from one end of the sky to the other.
31 He'll send out his angels with a loud trumpet blast, and they'll gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to another."
32 So when you see all these things, you must know that he is just at the door.
32 “Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near;
32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
32 “Now learn this parable(AB) from the fig tree: As soon as its branch becomes tender and sprouts leaves, you know that summer is near.
32 "Now learn a lesson from the fig tree. When its branches become tender and it produces leaves, you know that summer is near.
33 I tell you, these things will all happen before the present age passes away.
33 so, you too, when you see all these things, (u)recognize that (v)He is near, right (AR)at the (w)door.
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
33 In the same way, when you see all these things, you'll know that the Son of Man is near, right at the door.
34 Earth and sky will pass away but my words will never pass away.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
34 I assure you: This generation will certainly not pass away until all these things take place.(AD)
34 I tell all of you with certainty, this generation won't disappear until these things happen.
36 For just as it was in the time of Noah, it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.
36 “But (AU)of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
36 “Now concerning that day and hour no one knows—neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son(q) —except the Father only.(AG)
36 "No one knows when that day or hour will come not the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father,
37 For just as in those days before the flood people were eating and drinking, marrying and being married, until the very day Noah entered the ark,
37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
37 As the days of Noah were, so the coming of the Son of Man will be.
37 because just as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be when the Son of Man comes.
38 and knew nothing about it until the flood came and destroyed them all, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.
38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, (AX)marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that (AY)Noah entered the ark,
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
38 For in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah boarded the ark.(AH)
38 In those days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage right up to the day when Noah went into the ark.
39 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left.
39 and they did not (z)understand until the flood came and took them all away; so will the (AZ)coming of the Son of Man be.
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
39 They didn’t know(r) until the flood came and swept them all away. So this is the way the coming of the Son of Man will be:
39 They were unaware of what was happening until the flood came and swept all of them away. That's how it will be when the Son of Man comes.
40 Two women will be grinding with the handmill; one will be taken and one left.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one left.
40 At that time, two people will be in the field. One will be taken, and one will be left behind.
41 So you must be on the watch, for you do not know on what day your Master is coming.
41 (BA)Two women will be grinding at the (ac)(BB)mill; one (ad)will be taken and one (ae)will be left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41 Two women will be grinding grain at the mill. One will be taken, and one will be left behind.
42 But you may be sure of this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have been on the watch, and would not have let his house be broken into.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
42 "So keep on watching, because you don't know on what day your Lord is coming.
43 Therefore you must be ready too, for the Son of Man is coming at a time when you do not expect him.
43 But (af)be sure of this, that (BD)if the head of the house had known (BE)at what time of the night the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert and would not have allowed his house to be (ag)broken into.
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
43 But know this: If the homeowner had known what time(t) the thief was coming, he would have stayed alert and not let his house be broken into.(AK)
43 But be sure of this: if the owner of the house had known when during the night the thief would be coming, he would have stayed awake and not allowed his house to be broken into.
44 "Who then will be the faithful, thoughtful slave whom his master put in charge of his household, to give the members of it their supplies at the proper time?
44 For this reason (BF)you also must be ready; for (BG)the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not think He will.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
44 This is why you also must be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.(AL)
44 So you, too, must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you are not expecting."
45 Blessed is that slave if his master when he returns finds him doing it.
45 “(BH)Who then is the (BI)faithful and (BJ)sensible slave whom his (ah)master (BK)put in charge of his household to give them their food at the proper time?
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
45 “Who then is a faithful and sensible slave,(AM) whom his master has put in charge of his household, to give them food at the proper time?(AN)
45 "Who, then, is the faithful and wise servant whom his master has put in charge of his household to give the others their food at the right time?
47 But if he is a bad slave and says to himself, 'My master is going to stay a long time,'
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
47 I assure you: He will put him in charge of all his possessions.
47 I tell all of you with certainty, he will put him in charge of all his property.
48 and begins to beat the other slaves, and eats and drinks with drunkards,
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
48 But if that wicked slave says in his heart, ‘My master is delayed,’
48 "But if that wicked servant says to himself, "My master has been delayed,'
49 that slave's master will come back some day when he does not expect him, and at some time of which he does not know
49 and begins to beat his fellow slaves and eat and drink with drunkards;
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
49 and begins to beat his fellow servants and eat and drink with the drunks,
50 and will cut him in two, and put him with the hypocrites, to weep and gnash his teeth.
50 the (al)master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour which he does not know,
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
50 that slave’s master will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not know.
50 that servant's master will come on a day when he doesn't expect him and at an hour that he doesn't know.
