Mark 13:3-23

3As He was sittingG2521 on 1the MountG3735 of OlivesG1636 oppositeG2713 the templeG2413, 2PeterG4074, 3JamesG2385, JohnG2491, and AndrewG406 were questioningG1905 Him privatelyG2596G2398, 4“TellG3004 us, whenG4219 will theseG3778 thingsG3778 comeG1510 aboutG1510, and whatG5101 will be the 4signG4592 whenG3752 allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 areG3195 goingG3195 toG3195 be fulfilledG4931?” 5And JesusG2424 beganG757 to sayG3004 to them, “SeeG991 to it that noG3361 oneG5100 misleadsG4105 you. 6ManyG4183 will comeG2064 in My nameG3686, sayingG3004, ‘5I amG1510 He!’ and they will misleadG4105 manyG4183. 7WhenG3752 you hearG191 of warsG4171 and rumorsG189 of warsG4171, do not be alarmedG2360; those things mustG1163 takeG1096 placeG1096; but that is not yetG3768 the endG5056. 8For nationG1484 will riseG1453 upG1453 againstG1909 nationG1484, and kingdomG932 againstG1909 kingdomG932; there will be earthquakesG4578 in variousG2596 placesG5117; there will also be faminesG3042. TheseG3778 thingsG3778 are only the beginningG746 of birthG5604 painsG5604.

9“But 6be on your guardG991; for they will 7handG3860 you overG3860 to the 8courtsG4892, and you will be floggedG1194 9in the synagoguesG4864, and you will standG2476 beforeG1909 governorsG2232 and kingsG935 for My sakeG1752, as a testimonyG3142 to them. 1010And the gospelG2098 mustG1163 firstG4413 be preachedG2784 to allG3956 the nationsG1484. 1111And whenG3752 they 12arrestG71 you and handG3860 you overG3860, do not worryG4305 beforehandG4305 aboutG4305 whatG5101 you are to sayG2980, but sayG2980 whateverG3739G1437 is givenG1325 you at that timeG5610; for you are not the ones speakingG2980, but it is the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 12And brotherG80 will betrayG3860 brotherG80 to deathG2288, and a fatherG3962 his childG5043; and childrenG5043 will riseG1881 upG1881 againstG1909 parentsG1118 and 13have them putG2289 toG2289 deathG2289. 13And 14you will be hatedG3404 by everyoneG3956 becauseG1223 of My nameG3686, but it is the one who has enduredG5278 to the endG5056 whoG3778 will be savedG4982.

14“NowG1161 15whenG3752 you seeG3708 the 16abominationG946 of desolationG2050 standingG2476 whereG3699 it shouldG1163 not be--17let the 18readerG314 understandG3539--thenG5119 thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in JudeaG2449 must fleeG5343 to the mountainsG3735. 151920WhoeverG3588 is on the 21housetopG1430 must not goG2597 downG2597, norG3366 goG1525 inG1525 to getG142 anythingG5100 out of his houseG3614. 16And 22whoeverG3588 is in the fieldG68 must not turnG1994 backG3694G1994 to getG142 his cloakG2440. 17But woeG3759 to thoseG3588 womenG3588 who are pregnantG1064, and to thoseG3588 who are nursingG2337 babiesG2337 in thoseG3588 daysG2250! 18MoreoverG1161, prayG4336 that it will not happenG1096 in winterG5494. 19For thoseG1565 daysG2250 will be suchG3634 a time of tribulationG2347 as has not occurredG1096 23sinceG575 the beginningG746 of the creationG2937 whichG3739 GodG2316 createdG2936 untilG2193 nowG3568, and neverG3756G3361 will again. 20And ifG1487 the LordG2962 had not shortenedG2856 those daysG2250, noG3756G3956 24lifeG4561 would have been savedG4982; but for the sakeG1223 of the 25electG1588, whomG3739 He choseG1586, He shortenedG2856 the daysG2250. 21And thenG5119 ifG1437 anyoneG5100 saysG3004 to you, ‘LookG2396, hereG5602 is the 26ChristG5547’; or, ‘LookG2396, thereG1563 He is’; do not believeG4100 it; 22for falseG5580 christsG5580 and 27falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will ariseG1453, and will provideG4160 28signsG4592 and 29wondersG5059, inG4314 orderG4314 toG4314 misleadG635, ifG1487 possibleG1415, the electG1588. 23But bewareG991; I have toldG4275 you everythingG3956 inG4275 advanceG4275.
