Matthew 24:3-7

3After that, Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives. While he was alone, his disciples came to him. They said to him, ‘Please tell us when all these things will happen. Also tell us what will show us that you will soon return? What will show us that the world will soon end?’

4Jesus said, ‘You must be careful! Some people will tell you things that are not true. Do not believe them.

5Many people will say that they have come on my behalf. They will say, “I am the Messiah.” Many people will believe their false words.

6You will hear about wars. You will hear reports about wars in other places. But you must not be afraid. Those things must happen first, but it is not yet the end of everything.

7People in one country will attack the people in another country. Kings and their armies will fight against other kings and their armies. In some places, people will be hungry, with no food. The ground will shake in many different places.
