Luke 21:12-24
12“But beforeG4253 allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778, 1they will layG1911 their handsG5495 on you and persecuteG1377 you, turningG3860 you overG3860 to the synagoguesG4864 and prisonsG5438, 2bringingG520 you beforeG1909 kingsG935 and governorsG2232 onG1752 accountG1752 ofG1752 My nameG3686. 133It will leadG576 to 4an opportunity for your testimonyG3142. 145SoG3767 6makeG5087 upG5087 your mindsG2588 not to prepareG4304 beforehandG4304 to defendG626 yourselves; 15for 7I will provideG1325 you 8eloquenceG4750 and wisdomG4678 whichG3739 noneG3756G537 of your adversariesG480 will be ableG1410 to opposeG436 orG2228 refuteG471. 16But you will be betrayedG3860 evenG2532 by parentsG1118, brothersG80 and sisters, other relativesG4773, and friendsG5384, and they will putG2289 some of you toG2289 deathG2289, 17and you will be hatedG3404 by allG3956 peopleG3956 becauseG1223 of My nameG3686. 18And yet 9not a hairG2359 of your headG2776 will perishG622. 1910By your enduranceG5281 you will gainG2932 your 11livesG5590.
20“But whenG3752 you seeG3708 JerusalemG2419 12surroundedG2944 by armiesG4760, thenG5119 13recognizeG1097 that her desolationG2050 is nearG1448. 21ThenG5119 thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in JudeaG2449 must fleeG5343 to the mountainsG3735, and thoseG3588 whoG3588 are insideG3319 14the cityG846 must leaveG1633, and 15thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in the countryG5561 must not enterG1525 16the cityG846; 22becauseG3754 theseG3778 are 17daysG2250 of punishmentG1557, so that allG3956 thingsG3956 which have been writtenG1125 will be fulfilledG4092. 23WoeG3759 to thoseG3588 womenG3588 who are pregnantG2192G1722G1064, and to thoseG3588 who are nursingG2337 babiesG2337 in thoseG3588 daysG2250; for 18there will be greatG3173 distressG318 upon the 19landG1093, and wrathG3709 to thisG3778 peopleG2992; 24and they will fallG4098 by 20the edgeG4750 of the swordG3162, and will be ledG163 captiveG163 into allG3956 the nationsG1484; and 21JerusalemG2419 will be 22trampledG3961 underfootG3961 by the GentilesG1484 untilG891 23the timesG2540 of the GentilesG1484 are fulfilledG4137.
