Matthew 24:16-28
16then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains. 171Whoever is on 2the housetop must not go down to get the things out that are in his house. 183Whoever is in the field must not turn back to get his cloak. 19But 4woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! 20But pray that your flight will not be in the winter, or on a Sabbath. 21For then there will be a 5great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will. 22Unless those days had been cut short, no 6life would have been saved; but for 7the sake of the 8elect those days will be cut short. 239Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the 10Christ,’ or ‘11There He is,’ do not believe him. 24For false Christs and 12false prophets will arise and will 13show great 1415signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even 16the 17elect. 25Behold, I have told you in advance. 26So if they say to you, ‘Behold, He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out, or, ‘Behold, He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe them. 2718For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes even to the west, so will the 19coming of the 20Son of Man be. 2821Wherever the corpse is, there the 22vultures will gather.
