New American Standard Bible 1995

Matthew 24:6-12

6You will be hearing of 1wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. 7For 2nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be 3famines and earthquakes. 8 4But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs.

9“5Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and 6you will be hated by all nations because of My name. 10At that time many will 7 8fall away and will 9betray one another and hate one another. 11Many 10false prophets will arise and will mislead many. 12Because lawlessness is increased, 11most people’s love will grow cold.
