Matthew 24:11-24

11And manyG4183 1falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will riseG1453 upG1453 and 2misleadG4105 manyG4183 peopleG4183. 12And becauseG1223 lawlessnessG458 is increasedG4129, 3mostG4183 people’sG4183 loveG26 will becomeG5594 coldG5594. 13 4But the one who enduresG5278 to the endG5056 is theG3778 oneG3778 who will be savedG4982. 14ThisG3778 5gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 6shall be preachedG2784 in the wholeG3650 7 8worldG3625 as a testimonyG3142 to allG3956 the nationsG1484, and thenG5119 the endG5056 will comeG2240.

15“ThereforeG3767 whenG3752 you seeG3708 the 9abominationG946 of desolationG2050 which was spokenG3004 of throughG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standingG2476 in 10the holyG40 placeG5117--11 12let the 13readerG314 understandG3539-- 16thenG5119 thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in JudeaG2449 must fleeG5343 to the mountainsG3735. 17 14WhoeverG3588 is on 15the 16housetopG1430 must not goG2597 downG2597 to getG142 things out of his houseG3614. 18And 17whoeverG3588 is in the fieldG68 must not turnG1994 backG3694 G1994 to getG142 his cloakG2440. 19But 18woeG3759 to thoseG3588 womenG3588 who are pregnantG2192 G1064, and to thoseG3588 who are nursingG2337 babiesG2337 in thoseG3588 daysG2250! 20MoreoverG1161, prayG4336 that 19whenG5437 you fleeG5437, it will not be in the winterG5494, orG3366 on a SabbathG4521. 21For thenG5119 there will be a 20greatG3173 tribulationG2347, suchG3634 as has not occurredG1096 sinceG575 the beginningG746 of the worldG2889 untilG2193 nowG3568, norG3761 everG3756 G3361 will again. 22And ifG1487 thoseG1565 daysG2250 had not been cutG2856 shortG2856, noG3756 G3956 21lifeG4561 would have been savedG4982; but for 22the sakeG1223 of the 23electG1588 thoseG1565 daysG2250 will be cutG2856 shortG2856. 23 24ThenG5119 ifG1437 anyoneG5100 saysG3004 to you, ‘BeholdG2400, hereG5602 is the 25ChristG5547,’ orG2228 ‘He is over hereG5602,’ do not believeG4100 him. 24For falseG5580 christsG5580 and 26falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will ariseG1453 and will provideG1325 greatG3173 27 28signsG4592 and wondersG5059, soG5620 as to misleadG4105, ifG1487 possibleG1415, evenG2532 29the 30electG1588.
