Matthew 24:8-20

8All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.

9"Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake.

10And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another.

11And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray.

12And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.

13But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

14And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

15"So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),

16then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

17Let the one who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house,

18and let the one who is in the field not turn back to take his cloak.

19And alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days!

20Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath.
