Luke 21:20-24

20One day you will see Jerusalem with armies all around it. Then you will know that enemies will soon destroy that city.

21People in Judea must then run away to the hills to hide. People that are inside the city must leave it. People that are outside in the fields must not go back into the city.

22This is when God will punish Israel's people. Then all the things will happen that his servants wrote about in the Bible.

23That will be a very bad time for women who are soon to have a baby! It will also be a bad time for those women who have little babies! Yes, very bad things will happen to all the people of this country. God will be very angry with the people who live here.

24At that time, enemies will fight God's people and kill many of them in war. They will take some of them away as prisoners to live in all the other countries. They will not be free to return home. People that are not Jews will destroy Jerusalem. They will rule here until it is time for them to stop.’
