Matthew 24:4-28

4And JesusG2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004 to them, “1SeeG991 to it that noG3361 oneG5100 2misleadsG4105 you. 5For 3manyG4183 will comeG2064 in My nameG3686, sayingG3004, ‘I amG1510 the 4ChristG5547,’ and they will 5misleadG4105 manyG4183 peopleG4183. 6And you willG3195 be hearingG191 of 6warsG4171 and rumorsG189 of warsG4171. SeeG3708 that you are not alarmedG2360, for those things mustG1163 takeG1096 placeG1096, but that is not yetG3768 the endG5056. 7For 7nationG1484 will riseG1453 againstG1909 nationG1484, and kingdomG932 againstG1909 kingdomG932, and there will be 8faminesG3042 and earthquakesG4578 in variousG2596 placesG5117. 89But allG3956 theseG3778 thingsG3778 are merely the beginningG746 of birthG5604 painsG5604.

9“10ThenG5119 they will handG3860 you overG3860 to tribulationG2347 and killG615 you, and 11you will be hatedG3404 by allG3956 nationsG1484 becauseG1223 of My nameG3686. 10And at that timeG5119 manyG4183 will 1213fallG4624 awayG4624, and they will 14betrayG3860 oneG240 anotherG240 and hateG3404 oneG240 anotherG240. 11And manyG4183 15falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will riseG1453 upG1453 and 16misleadG4105 manyG4183 peopleG4183. 12And becauseG1223 lawlessnessG458 is increasedG4129, 17mostG4183 people’sG4183 loveG26 will becomeG5594 coldG5594. 1318But the one who enduresG5278 to the endG5056 is theG3778 oneG3778 who will be savedG4982. 14ThisG3778 19gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 20shall be preachedG2784 in the wholeG3650 2122worldG3625 as a testimonyG3142 to allG3956 the nationsG1484, and thenG5119 the endG5056 will comeG2240.

15“ThereforeG3767 whenG3752 you seeG3708 the 23abominationG946 of desolationG2050 which was spokenG3004 of throughG1223 DanielG1158 the prophetG4396, standingG2476 in 24the holyG40 placeG5117--2526let the 27readerG314 understandG3539-- 16thenG5119 thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in JudeaG2449 must fleeG5343 to the mountainsG3735. 1728WhoeverG3588 is on 29the 30housetopG1430 must not goG2597 downG2597 to getG142 things out of his houseG3614. 18And 31whoeverG3588 is in the fieldG68 must not turnG1994 backG3694G1994 to getG142 his cloakG2440. 19But 32woeG3759 to thoseG3588 womenG3588 who are pregnantG2192G1064, and to thoseG3588 who are nursingG2337 babiesG2337 in thoseG3588 daysG2250! 20MoreoverG1161, prayG4336 that 33whenG5437 you fleeG5437, it will not be in the winterG5494, orG3366 on a SabbathG4521. 21For thenG5119 there will be a 34greatG3173 tribulationG2347, suchG3634 as has not occurredG1096 sinceG575 the beginningG746 of the worldG2889 untilG2193 nowG3568, norG3761 everG3756G3361 will again. 22And ifG1487 thoseG1565 daysG2250 had not been cutG2856 shortG2856, noG3756G3956 35lifeG4561 would have been savedG4982; but for 36the sakeG1223 of the 37electG1588 thoseG1565 daysG2250 will be cutG2856 shortG2856. 2338ThenG5119 ifG1437 anyoneG5100 saysG3004 to you, ‘BeholdG2400, hereG5602 is the 39ChristG5547,’ orG2228 ‘He is over hereG5602,’ do not believeG4100 him. 24For falseG5580 christsG5580 and 40falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will ariseG1453 and will provideG1325 greatG3173 4142signsG4592 and wondersG5059, soG5620 as to misleadG4105, ifG1487 possibleG1415, evenG2532 43the 44electG1588. 25BeholdG2400, I have toldG4275 you inG4275 advanceG4275. 26SoG3767 ifG1437 they sayG3004 to you, ‘BeholdG2400, He is in the wildernessG2048,’ do not goG1831 outG1831; or, ‘BeholdG2400, He is in the innerG5009 roomsG5009,’ do not believeG4100 them. 2745For justG5618 as the lightningG796 comesG1831 from the eastG395 and flashesG5316 asG2193 farG2193 asG2193 the westG1424, soG3779 will the 46comingG3952 of the 47SonG5207 of ManG444 48be. 2849WhereverG3699G1437 the corpseG4430 is, thereG1563 the 50vulturesG105 will gatherG4863.
