Luke 21:5-11

5Now while some were speaking about the temple, how it was adorned with beautiful stones and offerings, Jesus said,

6“As for these things that you are gazing at, the days will come when not one stone will be left on another. All will be torn down!”

7So they asked him, “Teacher, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that these things are about to take place?”

8He said, “Watch out that you are not misled. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them!

9And when you hear of wars and rebellions, do not be afraid. For these things must happen first, but the end will not come at once.”

10Then he said to them, “Nation will rise up in arms against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

11There will be great earthquakes, and famines and plagues in various places, and there will be terrifying sights and great signs from heaven.
