Matthew 24:1-13 ▼

1 Jesus having gone out departed from the temple, and His disciples came to Him to show Him the buildings of the temple.

2 And responding, He said to them, Do you not see all these? Truly, I say unto you, that stone may not be left here upon stone, which shall not be thrown down.

3 And He sitting upon the Mount of Olives; the disciples came to Him privately, saying, Tell us, when these things shall be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming and the end of the age?

4 And Jesus responding said to them, See, lest any one may deceive you.

5 For many will come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and they will deceive many.

6 And you will be about to hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you are not disturbed: for it behooveth all these things to be, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines and earthquakes in divers places.

8 And all these things are the beginning of travails.

9 Then they will deliver you into tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations on account of my name,

10 and then many will be offended; and they will betray one another, and hate one another.

11 And many false prophets will arise and deceive many.

12 And because iniquity doth abound, the divine love of many will grow cold.

13 But the one persevering to the end, the same shall be saved.
