Luke 21:1-13 ▼

1 And he loked vp, and behelde ye riche, how they put in their offerynges in to the Gods chest.

2 He sawe also a poore wedowe, which put in two mytes,

3 and he sayde: Verely I saye vnto you: This poore wedowe hath put in more the they all:

4 For these all haue of their excesse put in vnto the offerynge of God, but she of hir pouerte hath put in all hir lyuynge that she had.

5 And wha some spake of the temple, that it was garnished with goodly stones and Iewels, he saide:

6 The time shal come, wherin of all this that ye se, there shal not be left one stone vpon another, which shal not be broken downe.

7 They axed him, and sayde: Master, wha shal these be? and what shalbe the token, whan these shal come to passe?

8 He sayde: Take hede, that ye be not disceaued: For many shal come in my name, and saye, I am he, & the tyme is come hard by. Folowe them not.

9 But whan ye heare of warres and insurreccions, be not ye afrayed, for soch must come to passe, but the ende is not yet there so soone.

10 Then sayde he vnto them: One people shal ryse agaynst another, and one realme ageynst another,

11 & shal be greate earthquakes here and there, pestilence, and derth, and fearfull thinges. And greate tokes shal there be fro heaue.

12 But before all these, they shal laye handes vpon you, and persecute you, and delyuer you vp in to their synagoges and presons, and brynge you before kynges & prynces for my names sake.

13 But this shal happen vnto you for a wytnesse.
