Luke 21:29-38 ▼

29 And he spake a parable unto them, Behold the fig-tree, and all the trees,

30 when they now put forth, as soon as ye see it ye know in yourselves that the summer is now near:

31 so ye also, when ye see these things come to pass, know that the kingdom of God is at hand.

32 Verily I say unto you, That this generation shall in nowise pass away, until all these things come to pass.

33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall never pass away.

34 But take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts should be overloaded with surfeiting and drunkenness, and the anxious cares of life, and that day should come upon you unawares.

35 For as a snare shall it come upon all that are settled on the face of the whole earth.

36 Watch therefore, praying at every proper opportunity, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things which are ready to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

37 And during the day he continued teaching in the temple; but at night he went out, and lodged in the mountain called the mount of Olives.

38 And all the people came to him early in the morning at the temple, to hear him.
