Matthew 24:3-8 - Signs Of The End Of The Age

³ And as he sat on the mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, Tell us, when will these things be? And what is the sign of thy coming, and of the termination of the age?

⁴ And having answered, Jesus said to them, See that not any man may lead you astray. ⁵ For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ, and will lead many astray. ⁶ And ye are going to hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that ye not be alarmed, for all the things must happen, but the end is not yet. ⁷ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and plagues and earthquakes in places. ⁸ But all these things are the beginning of travail.

³ And as he sat upon the mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew questioned him privately, ⁴ Tell us, when will these things be? And what is the sign when all these things are going to be fulfilled?

⁵ And having answered them, Jesus began to say to them, Watch that not any man lead you astray. ⁶ For many will come in my name, saying, I am, and they will lead many astray. ⁷ And when ye may hear of wars and rumors of wars, be not alarmed, for it must happen, but the end is not yet. ⁸ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These things are the beginnings of travails.

⁷ And they questioned him, saying, Teacher, when therefore will these things be? And what is the sign when these things are going to happen?

⁸ And he said, Watch that ye may not be led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, I am, and, The time has come near. Go ye not therefore after them. ⁹ And when ye may hear of wars and tumults, do not be alarmed, for these things must first happen, but the end is not straightaway.

¹⁰ Then he said to them, Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. ¹¹ And great earthquakes will be in various places, and famines and plagues. And there will be fearful sights and great signs from the sky.
