Mark 13:28-37 ▼

28 But learn the parable from the fig-tree: when her branches may be now tender, and she may grow out leaves, know that the summer is nigh.

29 So you also, when you may see these things take place, know that it is already at the doors.

30 Truly I say unto you, this race may not pass away, until all these things may be fulfilled.

31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

32 But concerning that day or hour no one knows, neither the angels who are in heaven, or the Son, but the Father.

33 Beware, watch; for you know not when the time is.

34 As a man, going away, leaving his own house, and giving authority to his servants, and to each one his work, and commanded the porter that he should watch.

35 Watch therefore: for you know not when the Lord of the house cometh, late, or at midnight, or at the crowing of the cock, or in the morning;

36 lest having come suddenly he may find you sleeping.

37 And the things I say to you, I say to all, Watch.
