And there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

Now as Jesus was going out of the temple courts, one of his disciples said to him, "Teacher, look at these tremendous stones and buildings!" Jesus said to him, "Do you see these great buildings?

There will be great earthquakes, and famines and plagues in various places, and there will be terrifying sights and great signs from heaven.
