Matthew 24:9-28

9“1ThenG5119 they will handG3860 you overG3860 to tribulationG2347 and killG615 you, and 2you will be hatedG3404 by allG3956 nationsG1484 becauseG1223 of My nameG3686. 10And at that timeG5119 manyG4183 will 34fallG4624 awayG4624, and they will 5betrayG3860 oneG240 anotherG240 and hateG3404 oneG240 anotherG240. 11And manyG4183 6falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will riseG1453 upG1453 and 7misleadG4105 manyG4183 peopleG4183. 12And becauseG1223 lawlessnessG458 is increasedG4129, 8mostG4183 people’sG4183 loveG26 will becomeG5594 coldG5594. 139But the one who enduresG5278 to the endG5056 is theG3778 oneG3778 who will be savedG4982. 14ThisG3778 10gospelG2098 of the kingdomG932 11shall be preachedG2784 in the wholeG3650 1213worldG3625 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--1617let the 18readerG314 understandG3539-- 16thenG5119 thoseG3588 whoG3588 are in JudeaG2449 must fleeG5343 to the mountainsG3735. 1719WhoeverG3588 is on 20the 21housetopG1430 must not goG2597 downG2597 to getG142 things out of his houseG3614. 18And 22whoeverG3588 is in the fieldG68 must not turnG1994 backG3694G1994 to getG142 his cloakG2440. 19But 23woeG3759 to thoseG3588 womenG3588 who are pregnantG2192G1064, and to thoseG3588 who are nursingG2337 babiesG2337 in thoseG3588 daysG2250! 20MoreoverG1161, prayG4336 that 24whenG5437 you fleeG5437, it will not be in the winterG5494, orG3366 on a SabbathG4521. 21For thenG5119 there will be a 25greatG3173 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 26lifeG4561 would have been savedG4982; but for 27the sakeG1223 of the 28electG1588 thoseG1565 daysG2250 will be cutG2856 shortG2856. 2329ThenG5119 ifG1437 anyoneG5100 saysG3004 to you, ‘BeholdG2400, hereG5602 is the 30ChristG5547,’ orG2228 ‘He is over hereG5602,’ do not believeG4100 him. 24For falseG5580 christsG5580 and 31falseG5578 prophetsG5578 will ariseG1453 and will provideG1325 greatG3173 3233signsG4592 and wondersG5059, soG5620 as to misleadG4105, ifG1487 possibleG1415, evenG2532 34the 35electG1588. 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. 2736For justG5618 as the lightningG796 comesG1831 from the eastG395 and flashesG5316 asG2193 farG2193 asG2193 the westG1424, soG3779 will the 37comingG3952 of the 38SonG5207 of ManG444 39be. 2840WhereverG3699G1437 the corpseG4430 is, thereG1563 the 41vulturesG105 will gatherG4863.
