Matthew 24:8-20

8 1But allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 are merely the beginningG746 of birthG5604 pangsG5604.

9“2ThenG5119 they will deliverG3860 you to tribulationG2347, and will killG615 you, and 3you will be hatedG3404 by allG3956 nationsG1484 becauseG1223 of My nameG3686. 10At that timeG5119 manyG4183 will 4 5fallG4624 awayG4624 and will 6betrayG3860 oneG240 anotherG240 and hateG3404 oneG240 anotherG240. 11ManyG4183 7falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will ariseG1453 and will misleadG4105 manyG4183. 12BecauseG1223 lawlessnessG458 is increasedG4129, 8mostG4183 people’sG4183 loveG26 will growG5594 coldG5594. 13 9But the one who enduresG5278 to the endG5056, he will be savedG4982. 14ThisG3778 10gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 11shall be preachedG2784 in the wholeG3650 12 13worldG3625 as a testimonyG3142 to allG3956 the nationsG1484, and thenG5119 the endG5056 will comeG2240.

15“ThereforeG3767 whenG3752 you seeG3708 the 14abominationG946 of desolationG2050 which was spokenG3004 of throughG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standingG2476 in 15the holyG40 placeG5117 (16let the readerG314 understandG3539), 16thenG5119 thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in JudeaG2453 must fleeG5343 to the mountainsG3735. 17 17WhoeverG3588 is on 18the housetopG1430 must not goG2597 downG2597 to getG142 the things out that are in his houseG3614. 18 19WhoeverG3588 is in the fieldG68 must not turnG1994 backG3694 G1994 to getG142 his cloakG2440. 19But 20woeG3759 to thoseG3588 who are pregnantG1064 and to thoseG3588 who are nursingG2337 babiesG2337 in thoseG3588 daysG2250! 20But prayG4336 that your flightG5437 will not be in the winterG5494, orG3366 on a SabbathG4521.
