Blessed, be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with every spiritual blessing, in the heavenlies, in Christ, According as he made choice of us, in him, before the founding of a world, that we might be holy and blameless in his presence; in love, marking us out beforehand unto sonship, through Jesus Christ, for himself, according to the good pleasure of his will, read more.
Unto the praise of the glory of his favour wherewith he favoured us in the Beloved One, - In whom we have the redemption through his blood, the remission of our offences, according to the riches of his favour, which he made to superabound towards us; in all wisdom and prudence, making known to us the sacred secret of his will, according to his good pleasure which he purposed in him, - For an administration of the fulness of the seasons, to reunite for himself (under one head) the all things in the Christ, the things upon the heavens, and the things upon the earth, in him: In whom also we were taken as an inheritance, according to the purpose of him who energiseth all things according to the counsel of his will,

But, concerning the times and the seasons, brethren, - ye have, no need, that, unto you, anything be written; For, ye yourselves, perfectly well know - that, the day of the Lord, as a thief in the night, so, cometh; As soon as they begin to say - Peace! and safety! then, suddenly, upon them, cometh destruction, - just as the birth-throe unto her that is with child, - and in nowise shall they escape. read more.
But, ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that, the day, upon you, as upon thieves, should lay hold; For, all ye, are, sons of light, and sons of day, - we are not of night, nor of darkness: Hence, then, let us not be sleeping, as the rest, but let us watch and be sober: - For, they that sleep, by night, do sleep, and, they that drink, by night, do drink: - But, we, being of the day, let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and, for helmet, the hope of salvation. Because God did not appoint us unto anger, but unto acquiring salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ: - Who died for us, in order that, whether we be watching or sleeping, together with him, we should live.

But we request you, brethren, - in behalf of the Presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together unto him, That ye be not quickly tossed from your mind, nor be put in alarm - either by spirit, or by discourse, or by letter as by us, as that the day of the Lord, hath set in: That no one may cheat, you, in any one respect. Because that day will not set in - except the revolt come first, and there he revealed the man of lawlessness, the son of destruction, read more.

And, what now restraineth, ye know, to the end he may be revealed in his own fitting time; For, the secret, of lawlessness, already, is inwardly working itself, - only, until, he that restraineth at present, shall be gone, out of the midst: And, then, shall be revealed the lawless one, - whom, the Lord Jesus, will slay with the Spirit of his mouth, and paralyse with the forthshining of his Presence: - Whose, presence, shall be according to an inworking of Satan, with all manner of mighty work and sign and wonders of falsehood, And with all manner of deceit of unrighteousness, in them who are destroying themselves, because, the love of the truth, they did not welcome, that they might be saved; - And, for this cause, God sendeth them an inworking of error, to the end they should believe in the falsehood, - In order that should be judged who would not believe in the truth, but were well-pleased with the unrighteousness.

And, Jesus coming forth, from the temple, was taking his departure, when his disciples came forward to point out to him the buildings of the temple. But, he, answering, said unto them - Are ye not beholding all these things? Verily, I say unto you - in no wise, shall there be left here, stone upon stone, which shall not be thrown down. And, as he was sitting upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him, privately, saying - Tell us, when these things shall be, - and what the sign of thy presence, and the conclusion of the age. read more.
And, answering, Jesus said unto them - Be taking heed, lest anyone, deceive, you; For, many, will come upon my name, saying - I, am the Christ, - and will, deceive many. Moreover ye will be sure to be hearing of wars, and rumours of wars: Mind! be not alarmed, for it must needs happen, - but, not yet, is, the end; For there will arise - nation against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, - and there will be famines and earthquakes, in places. But, all these things, are a beginning of birth-pangs. Then, will they deliver you up into tribulation, and will slay you, - and ye will be men hated by all the nations, because of my name And, then, will many be caused to stumble, and, one another, will deliver up, and will hate one another; And, many false prophets, will arise, and deceive, many; And, because of lawlessness being brought to the full, the love of the many, will grew cold. But, he that hath endured throughout, the same, shall be saved. And this glad message of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the inhabited earth, for a witness unto all the nations, - and, then, will have come, the end. Whensoever, therefore, ye shall see the abomination desolation, that was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in a holy place, - he that readeth, let him think, Then, they who are in Judaea, let them flee into the mountains; And, he that is on the house-top, let him not come down, to take away the things out of his house; And, he that is in the field, let him not turn back, to take away his mantle. But alas! for the women with child, and for them that are giving suck, in those days; But be praying that your flight, may not happen in winter, nor on sabbath; For there will be then, Great tribulation, such as hath not happened, from the beginning of the world, until the present time, neither in any wise shall happen. And, except those days had been shortened, no flesh had been saved; but, for the sake of the chosen, those days shall be shortened. Then, if any, unto you, say - Lo! here, is the Christ, or, there, Do not believe it; For there will arise, false Christs, and false prophets, - and they will show great signs and wonders, so that, if possible, even the chosen, should be deceived: - Lo! I have foretold you. If therefore they should say unto you, Lo! in the desert, he is, Do not go forth; Lo! in the chambers, Do not believe it. For, just as the lightning goeth forth from the east, and shineth unto the west, so, shall be the presence of the Son of Man. Wheresoever, the corpse, shall be, there, shall be gathered, the vultures! But, straightway after the tribulation of those days, the sun, will be darkened, and, the moon, will not give her brightness, and, the stars, will fall from heaven, - and, the powers of the heavens, will be shaken; And, then, will be displayed - The sign of the Son of Man in heaven, and, then, will smite their breasts - all the tribes of the earth; and they will see the Son of Man - coming upon the clouds of heaven, with great power and glory. And he will send forth his messengers, with a great trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen - Out of the four winds, from heavens' bounds, unto their bounds. Now, from the fig-tree, learn ye, the parable: - When, already, her young branch, becometh tender, and the leaves, may be sprouting, ye observe, that, near, is, the summer: Thus, ye also, when ye shall see all these things, observe ye, that, near, he is, at the doors. Verily, I say unto you - In nowise, shall this generation, pass away, until all these things, shall happen: The heaven and the earth, shall pass away, but, my words, shall, in nowise, pass away. But, concerning that day and hour, no one, knoweth, neither the messengers of the heavens, nor the Son, - save the Father only. For, just as the days of Noah, so, will be the presence of the Son of Man; For, as they were in those days that were before the flood, feeding and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, - until the day Noah entered into the ark; And they observed not, until the flood came and took away all together, so, will be, the presence of the Son of Man. Then, shall there be two men in the field, - one, is taken near, and, one, is left behind: Two women grinding at the mill, - one, is taken near, and, one, is left behind. Be watching, therefore, for ye know not, on what manner of day, your Lord is coming. But there is, one thing, ye know - That, if the householder, had known, in what watch, the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert, and not have suffered his house to be dug through. Wherefore, ye also, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are, not thinking, The Son of Man doth come.

And, as he was going forth out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him - Teacher! see what manner of stones, and what manner of buildings! And, Jesus, said unto him - Art thou beholding these great buildings? In nowise, shall there be left here, stone upon stone, which shall, in any wise, not be thrown down. And, as he was sitting within the mount of Olives, over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew were questioning him, privately - read more.
Tell us, When, these things, shall be, and, what the sign, when all these things shall be about to be concluded. And, Jesus, began to be saying unto them - Beware, lest anyone, deceive, you; For, many, will come on my name, saying, I, am he! and, will deceive, many. And, when ye shall hear of wars, and rumours of wars, be not alarmed - it must needs come to pass, but, not yet, is, the end. For there will arise - Nation against nation, and, kingdom against kingdom, - there will be earthquakes in places, there will be famines: - A beginning of birth-pangs, are these things. But be, ye, taking heed, unto yourselves: they will deliver you up into high-councils, and, in synagogues, shall ye be beaten, - and, before governors and kings, shall ye be set, for my sake, for a witness unto them. And, unto all the nations, first, must needs be proclaimed, the glad-message. And, when they are leading you, as they are delivering you up, be not beforehand anxious, what ye shall speak; but, whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, the same, speak, - for, ye, are not the speakers, but the Holy Spirit. And, brother, will deliver up, brother, unto death, and, father, child, and, children, will rise up, against parents, and put them to death; And ye will be men hated by all, because of my name; but, he that hath endured throughout, the same, shall be saved. But, when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, standing where it ought not, he that readeth, let him, think, then, they who are in Judaea, let them flee into the mountains; He that is on the house-top, let him not come down, neither let him enter, to take away anything out of his louse; And, he that hath gone into the field, let him not turn back unto the things behind, to take away his mantle. But alas for the women with child, and for them who are giving suck, - in those days. But be praying, that it may not happen in winter. For in those days shall be a tribulation - such, that there hath not happened, the like, from the beginning of creation which God created, until the present time, and shall in nowise happen. And, save that the Lord hath shortened the days, no flesh should be saved; but, for the sake of the chosen of whom he hath made choice, he hath shortened the days. And, then, if any, unto you, say - See! Here, is the Christ! See! there, do not believe it; For there will arise, false Christs, and false prophets; and they will show signs and wonders, so as to deceive, if possible, the chosen. But, ye, beware: I have foretold you, all things. But, in those days, after that tribulation, the sun, shall be darkened, and, the moon, will not give her brightness, And, the stars, will, out of the heavens, be falling, - and, the powers which are in the heavens, will be shaken; And, then, will they see the Son of Man - coming in clouds, with great power and glory. And, then, will he send forth the messengers, and they will gather together his chosen - out of the four winds, from utmost bound of earth, unto utmost bound of heaven. Now, from the fig-tree, learn ye, the parable: - When, already, her young branch, becometh tender, and, the leaves, are sprouting, ye observe that, near, is, the summer: Thus, ye also, when ye shall see these things coming to pass, observe ye, that, near, he is, at the doors. Verily, I say unto you - In nowise, shall this generation pass away, until all these things, shall happen:

And, certain saying, of the temple - With beautiful stones and offerings, hath it been adorned! he said - As to these things, which ye are looking upon, There will come days, in which there will not be left here, stone upon stone, which will not be taken down. And they questioned him, saying - Teacher! when, therefore, will these things be? And, what the sign, when these things shall be about to come to pass? read more.
And, he, said - Be taking heed ye be not deceived; for, many, will come upon my name, saying - I, am he, - and - The season, hath drawn near! Do not go after them. But, whensoever ye shall hear of wars and revolutions, be not terrified, - for these things, must needs, come to pass first, but, not immediately, is the end. Then, said he unto them - There will rise up, nation against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; As well great earthquakes, as also, in places, pestilences and famines, will there be, as well objects of terror, as also, from heaven, great signs, will there be. And before, all these things, they will thrust upon you their hands, and persecute you, delivering you up into the synagogues and prisons, - when ye have been led away before kings and governors, for the sake of my name; But it shall turn out to you for a witness. Settle, then, in your hearts, not to be studying beforehand, how to make defense; For, I, will give you a mouth and wisdom, which one-and-all who are setting themselves against, you shall be unable to withstand or gainsay. But ye will be delivered up, even by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolk, and friends, and they will put to death some from among you; And ye will be hated by all, because of my name: And, a hair of your head, in nowise shall perish, - By your endurance, shall ye gain your lives for a possession. But whensoever ye shall see Jerusalem, encompassed by armies, then, know, that her desolation hath drawn near. Then they who are in Judaea, let them flee into the mountains, and they who are in her midst, let them go forth, - and they who are in the fields, let them not enter into her; For, days of avenging, are, these, for all the things written to be fulfilled. Alas! for the women with child, and for them who are giving suck, in those days; for there will be great distress upon the land, and anger against this people. And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be carried away captive into all the nations, and, Jerusalem, shall be trodden down by the nations, until the seasons of the nations shall be fulfilled and shall be. And there will he signs in sun, and moon, and stars, and, on the earth, anguish of nations in embarrassment - sea and surge resounding, - Men fainting, from fear and expectation of the things overtaking the inhabited earth. For, the powers of the heavens, will be shaken. And, then, will they see the Son of Man - coming in a cloud, with great power and glory. And, when these things are beginning to come to pass, unbend and lift up your heads, because that, your redemption, is drawing near. And he spake a parable unto them: See the fig-tree, and all the trees, - Whensoever they have already budded, seeing it, of yourselves, ye observe that, already near, is, the summer: Thus, ye also, whensoever ye shall see, these, things coming to pass, observe ye, that, near, is the kingdom of God! Verily, I say unto you - In nowise shall this generation pass away, until, all things, shall happen: Heaven and earth, will pass away, but, my word, in nowise will pass away. But be taking heed unto yourselves, lest once your hearts be made heavy - with debauch and drunkenness and anxieties about livelihood, and that day come upon you suddenly, as a snare, - For it will come in by surprise, upon all them that are dwelling on the face of all the earth. But be watching in every season, making supplication, that ye may gain full vigour, to escape all these things that are about to be coming to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.


But we do not wish you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them who are falling asleep, - lest ye be sorrowing, even as the rest also, who are without hope; For, if we believe that, Jesus, died, and rose again, so, also will, God, bring forth with him, them who have fallen asleep through Jesus; For, this, unto you, do we say, by a word of the Lord, - that, we, the living who are left unto the Presence of the Lord, shall in nowise get before them who have fallen asleep; read more.
Because, the Lord himself, with a word of command, with a chief-messenger's voice, and with a trumpet of God, shall descend from heaven, - and, the dead in Christ, shall rise, first, After that, we, the living who are left, together with them, shall be caught away, in clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: - and, thus, evermore, with the Lord, shall we be! So then, be consoling one another with these words.

But, now, hath Christ been raised from among the dead, - a firstfruit of them who have fallen asleep; For, since indeed, through a man, came death, through a man, also cometh the raising of the dead; For, just as, in the Adam, all die, so, also, in the Christ, shall all be made alive. read more.
But, each, in his own rank: - A firstfruit, Christ, after that, they who are the Christ's, in his presence,

If, therefore, ye have been raised together with the Christ, the things on high, be seeking, where, the Christ, is - on the right hand of God, sitting; The things on high, hold in esteem, not the things upon the earth: For ye have died, and, your life, is hid, together with the Christ, in God, - read more.
As soon as, the Christ, shall be made manifest - our life, then, ye also, together with him, shall be made manifest in glory;


Then, will the kingdom of the heavens become like unto, ten virgins, who, taking their torches, went forth to meet the bridegroom. Now, five of them, were foolish, and, five, prudent. For, the foolish - though they took, their torches, took not with them, oil: read more.
But, the prudent, took oil in their vessels, with their torches. Now, the bridegroom, delaying, they all became drowsy, and were sleeping. And, at midnight, an outcry hath been made - Lo! the bridegroom! Be going forth to meet him! Then, arose all those virgins, and trimmed their torches. And, the foolish, unto the prudent, said - Give us of your oil, because, our torches, are going out. But the prudent, answered, saying - Lest once, by any means, there be not enough for us and you, be going rather unto them that sell, and buy for yourselves But, as they were going away to buy, the bridegroom came; and, they who were ready, went in with him, into the marriage-feast, and, the door was locked. But, afterwards, came the other virgins also, saying - Lord! Lord! open unto us! And, he, answering, said - Verily, I say unto you, I know you not. Be watching, therefore, because ye know, neither the day nor the hour.

Be taking heed, be watching, for ye know not, when, the season is: - As a man from home - having left his house, and given his servants the authority, to each one, his work, - and, unto the porter, hath given command, that he should watch: - Be watching, therefore, for ye know not, when, the master of the house, is coming, - whether at even, or at midnight, or at cock-crowing, or at early morn; - read more.
Lest, coming suddenly, he find you, sleeping. But, what, unto you, I say, unto all, I say: - Be watching.

Let your loins be girded, and your lamps burning, And, ye yourselves, like unto men awaiting their own lord, once he may break up out of the marriage-feast, - that, when he cometh and knocketh, straightway, they may open unto him. Happy those servants, whom the lord, when he cometh, shall find watching! Verily, I say unto you - he will gird himself, and make them recline, and, coming near, will minister unto them. read more.
And, if, in the second, or if, in the third, watch, he come and find, thus, happy, are, they! But, of this, be taking note - Had the householder known, in what hour the thief was coming, he would have watched, and not suffered his house, to be digged through. Ye, therefore, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are not thinking, The Son of an cometh!

And, because they were hearing these things, he added and spake a parable, because of his being near Jerusalem, and their supposing that, instantly, was the kingdom of God to shine forth. He said, therefore - A certain man, of noble birth, went into a country far away, to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. And, calling ten servants of his own, he gave unto them ten minas, and said unto them - Do business, till I come. read more.
But, his citizens, hated him, and sent off an embassy after him, saying - We desire not, this, man, to be made king over us! And it came to pass, when he returned, having received the kingdom, that he bade be called unto him these servants, to whom he had given the silver, that he might take note, what business they had done. And the first came near, saying - Lord! thy mina, hath made, ten minas. And he said to him - Well done! good servant. Because, in a very small thing, thou hast been, faithful, have thou authority over, ten cities. And the second came, saying - Thy mina, lord, hath made five minas. And he said, to him also, And, thou, be over five cities. And, the other, came, saying - Lord, lo! thy mina, which I kept lying by in a napkin; For I was afraid of thee, because, a harsh man, thou art, - Thou takest up, what thou layedst not down, and reapest, what thou sowedst not! He saith to him - Out of thy mouth, do I judge thee, O wicked servant! Thou knewest that, I, a harsh man, am, - taking up, what I laid not down, and reaping, what I did not sow; Wherefore, then, didst thou not place my silver upon a money-changer'stable, and, I, when I came, with interest might have exacted it? And, unto the by-standers, he said - Take, from him, the mina, and give unto him that hath, the ten minas; - And they said to him, Lord! he hath ten minas; - I tell you - Unto everyone that hath, shall be given, whereas, from him that hath not, even what he hath, shall be taken away. But, these mine enemies who desired not that I should be made king over them, bring ye here, and slay them outright before me.

And he spake a parable unto them: See the fig-tree, and all the trees, - Whensoever they have already budded, seeing it, of yourselves, ye observe that, already near, is, the summer: Thus, ye also, whensoever ye shall see, these, things coming to pass, observe ye, that, near, is the kingdom of God! read more.
Verily, I say unto you - In nowise shall this generation pass away, until, all things, shall happen: Heaven and earth, will pass away, but, my word, in nowise will pass away. But be taking heed unto yourselves, lest once your hearts be made heavy - with debauch and drunkenness and anxieties about livelihood, and that day come upon you suddenly, as a snare, - For it will come in by surprise, upon all them that are dwelling on the face of all the earth. But be watching in every season, making supplication, that ye may gain full vigour, to escape all these things that are about to be coming to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.


And, unto the messenger of the assembly, in Sardis, write: - These things, saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, - that, a name, thou hast, that thou art living, and art, dead. Become thou watchful, and strengthen the things that remain, that were about to die; for I have not found thy works fulfilled before my God. Remember, therefore, how thou hast received, and didst hear, and keep it and repent. If then thou shall not watch, I will have come as a thief, and in nowise shalt thou get to know, during what sort of hour, I will have come upon thee.

But, straightway after the tribulation of those days, the sun, will be darkened, and, the moon, will not give her brightness, and, the stars, will fall from heaven, - and, the powers of the heavens, will be shaken; And, then, will be displayed - The sign of the Son of Man in heaven, and, then, will smite their breasts - all the tribes of the earth; and they will see the Son of Man - coming upon the clouds of heaven, with great power and glory. And he will send forth his messengers, with a great trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen - Out of the four winds, from heavens' bounds, unto their bounds. read more.
Now, from the fig-tree, learn ye, the parable: - When, already, her young branch, becometh tender, and the leaves, may be sprouting, ye observe, that, near, is, the summer: Thus, ye also, when ye shall see all these things, observe ye, that, near, he is, at the doors. Verily, I say unto you - In nowise, shall this generation, pass away, until all these things, shall happen: The heaven and the earth, shall pass away, but, my words, shall, in nowise, pass away. But, concerning that day and hour, no one, knoweth, neither the messengers of the heavens, nor the Son, - save the Father only.


Now, from the fig-tree, learn ye, the parable: - When, already, her young branch, becometh tender, and, the leaves, are sprouting, ye observe that, near, is, the summer: Thus, ye also, when ye shall see these things coming to pass, observe ye, that, near, he is, at the doors. Verily, I say unto you - In nowise, shall this generation pass away, until all these things, shall happen: read more.
The heaven and the earth, shall pass away, but, my words, shall not pass away. But, concerning that day or hour, no one, knoweth, neither the messengers in heaven, nor the Son, - save the Father. Be taking heed, be watching, for ye know not, when, the season is: - As a man from home - having left his house, and given his servants the authority, to each one, his work, - and, unto the porter, hath given command, that he should watch: - Be watching, therefore, for ye know not, when, the master of the house, is coming, - whether at even, or at midnight, or at cock-crowing, or at early morn; - Lest, coming suddenly, he find you, sleeping. But, what, unto you, I say, unto all, I say: - Be watching.


And, unto the messenger of the assembly, in Sardis, write: - These things, saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars: I know thy works, - that, a name, thou hast, that thou art living, and art, dead. Become thou watchful, and strengthen the things that remain, that were about to die; for I have not found thy works fulfilled before my God. Remember, therefore, how thou hast received, and didst hear, and keep it and repent. If then thou shall not watch, I will have come as a thief, and in nowise shalt thou get to know, during what sort of hour, I will have come upon thee.

Be watching, therefore, for ye know not, on what manner of day, your Lord is coming. But there is, one thing, ye know - That, if the householder, had known, in what watch, the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert, and not have suffered his house to be dug through. Wherefore, ye also, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are, not thinking, The Son of Man doth come. read more.
Who then is the faithful and prudent servant, whom the master hath appointed over his household, to give them food in season? Happy! that servant, whom his master, when he cometh, shall find so doing! Verily, I say unto you - Over all his substance, will he appoint him. But, if that wicked servant should say in his heart - My master, delayeth, And begin to be striking his fellow-servants, and eating and drinking with the drunken, The master of that servant, will have come, on a day when he is not expecting, and in an hour when he is not observing, - And will cut him asunder; and, his part, with the hypocrites, will appoint: There, shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth!

Ye, therefore, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are not thinking, The Son of an cometh!


As a man from home - having left his house, and given his servants the authority, to each one, his work, - and, unto the porter, hath given command, that he should watch: - Be watching, therefore, for ye know not, when, the master of the house, is coming, - whether at even, or at midnight, or at cock-crowing, or at early morn; -

Let not your heart be troubled: Believe on God, and, on me, believe. In the house of my Father, are, many dwellings; or else I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you. And, if I go, and prepare a place for you, again, am I coming, and will take you home unto - myself, that, where, I, am, ye also, may be. read more.
And, whither, I, go, ye know, the way. Thomas saith unto him - Lord! we know not whither thou goest: How know we, the way? Jesus saith unto him - I, am the way, and the truth, and the life: No one, cometh unto the Father, but through me.

Jesus took note, that they were wishing to question him, and said unto them - Concerning this, are ye enquiring one with another, - because I said: - A little while, and ye behold me not, and, again, a little while, and ye shall see me? Verily, verily, I say unto you - Ye, shall weep and lament, but, the world, shall rejoice: Ye, shall be grieved, but, your grief, into joy, shall be turned. A woman, as soon as she is about to bring forth, hath, grief, because her hour hath come; but, as soon as she hath given birth to the child, no longer, remembereth she the anguish, by reason of the joy, that a human being into the world hath been born. read more.

But we request you, brethren, - in behalf of the Presence of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together unto him, That ye be not quickly tossed from your mind, nor be put in alarm - either by spirit, or by discourse, or by letter as by us, as that the day of the Lord, hath set in: That no one may cheat, you, in any one respect. Because that day will not set in - except the revolt come first, and there he revealed the man of lawlessness, the son of destruction,

Be patient, therefore, brethren, until the Presence of the Lord: - Lo! the husbandman, awaiteth the precious fruit of the earth, having patience for it, until it receive the early and the latter rain: Be, ye also, patient, Stablish your hearts, because, the Presence of the Lord, hath drawn near.


For, just as the days of Noah, so, will be the presence of the Son of Man; For, as they were in those days that were before the flood, feeding and drinking, marrying and being given in marriage, - until the day Noah entered into the ark; And they observed not, until the flood came and took away all together, so, will be, the presence of the Son of Man. read more.
Then, shall there be two men in the field, - one, is taken near, and, one, is left behind: Two women grinding at the mill, - one, is taken near, and, one, is left behind.

But there is, one thing, ye know - That, if the householder, had known, in what watch, the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert, and not have suffered his house to be dug through. Wherefore, ye also, be getting ready, because, in what hour ye are, not thinking, The Son of Man doth come. Who then is the faithful and prudent servant, whom the master hath appointed over his household, to give them food in season? Happy! that servant, whom his master, when he cometh, shall find so doing! Verily, I say unto you - Over all his substance, will he appoint him. But, if that wicked servant should say in his heart - My master, delayeth, And begin to be striking his fellow-servants, and eating and drinking with the drunken, The master of that servant, will have come, on a day when he is not expecting, and in an hour when he is not observing, - And will cut him asunder; and, his part, with the hypocrites, will appoint: There, shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth!

And, as it came to pass in the days of Noah, so, will it be, even in the days of the Son of Man: They were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were being given in marriage, - until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. In like manner, as it came to pass in the days of Lot, They were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building, - read more.
But, on the day Lot came out from Sodom, it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all: - According to the same things, will it be on the day the Son of Man is revealed. In that day, he that shall be on the housetop, and his utensils in the house, let him not go down, to take them away! And, he that is in the field, in like manner, let him not turn unto the things behind, Bear in mind the wife of Lot! Whosoever shall seek to make his life his own, shall lose it, But, whosoever shall lose it, shall give it a living birth. I say unto you - On the selfsame night, there shall be two men on onebed, - the one, shall be taken near, and, the other, left behind; There shall be two women grinding together, - the one, shall be taken near, and, the other, left behind. And, answering, they say unto him - Where, Lord? And, he, said unto them - Where the body is, there, the vultures also, will be gathered together.

Who, is the False One; - save he that denieth that, Jesus, is the Christ? The same, is the Antichrist, - he that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, neither hath he, the Father: He that confesseth the Son, hath, the Father also. As for you, what ye have heard from the beginning, in you, let it abide. If, in you, shall abide, that which, from the beginning, ye have heard, ye also, in the Son, and inthe Father, shall abide. read more.
And, this, is the promise, which he hath promised unto us, - The age-abiding life. These things, have I written unto you, concerning them who would lead you astray. And, as for you, the anointing which ye have received from him, abideth in you, and ye have, no need, that anyone be teaching you; but, as, his anointing, is teaching you, and is, true, and is no falsehood, even just as it hath taught you, abide ye in him. And, now, dear children, abide ye in him, in order that, if he be made manifest, we may have boldness, and not be shamed away from him by his presence.


This, already, beloved, is the second letter I am writing unto you; and, in these letters, I am stirring up - by way of calling to remembrance - your uncorrupted mind, To remember the fore-spoken declarations made by the holy prophets, and the commandment of the Lord and Saviour, by your apostles. Of this, first, taking note - that there will come, in the last of the days, with scoffing, scoffers, after their own covetings, going on, read more.
and saying - Where is the promise of his presence? For, since the fathers fell asleep, all things, thus remain, from the beginning of creation. For this they, willfully, forget - that there were, heavens, from of old, and, an earth, on account of water and by means of water, compacted, by God's word, - By which means, the world that then was, with water being flooded, perished; While, the heavens and the earth that now are, by the same word, have been stored with fire, being kept unto the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly men.


Thus, the Christ also, once for all having been offered, for the bearing of the sins, of many, a second time, apart from sin, will appear, to them who for him are ardently waiting - unto salvation.
