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

³ And while he was seated on the Mountain of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, Make clear to us, when will these things be? and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the world?

⁴ And Jesus said to them in answer, Take care that you are not tricked. ⁵ For people will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and a number will be turned from the true way through them. ⁶ And news will come to you of wars and talk of wars: do not be troubled, for these things have to be; but it is still not the end. ⁷ For nation will be moved against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and men will be without food, and the earth will be shaking in different places; ⁸ But all these things are the first of the troubles.

³ And while he was seated on the Mountain of Olives opposite the Temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew said to him privately, ⁴ Say when these things will be, and what will be the sign when these things are all about to be done.

⁵ And Jesus said to them, Take care that you are not tricked by anyone. ⁶ People will come in my name, saying, I am he; and a number will be turned from the true way. ⁷ And when you have news of wars and talk of wars, do not be troubled; these things have to be, but it is still not the end. ⁸ Nation will go to war with nation, and kingdom with kingdom: there will be earth-shocks in different places; there will be times when there is no food; these things are the first of the troubles.

⁷ And they said to him, Master, when will these things be? and what sign will there be when these events are to take place?

⁸ And he said, Take care that you are not tricked: for a number of people will come in my name, saying, I am he; and, The time is near: do not go after them. ⁹ And when news of wars and troubled times comes to your ears, have no fear; for these things have to be, but the end will not be now.

¹⁰ Then he said to them, Nation will be moved against nation and kingdom against kingdom: ¹¹ There will be great earth-shocks and outbursts of disease in a number of places, and men will be without food; and there will be wonders and great signs from heaven.
