Matthew 24
1 And having gone forth, Jesus departed from the temple, and His disciples came near to show Him the buildings of the temple,
ⲁ̅ⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲓ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲙⲡⲣⲡⲉ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲕ. ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲟϥ ⲉⲡⲕⲱⲧ ⲙⲡⲣⲡⲉ.
2 and Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these? Truly I say to you, there may not be left here a stone on a stone that will not be thrown down.”
ⲃ̅ⲛⲧⲟϥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲛⲁⲓ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ϩⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲏⲧⲛ. ϫⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲩⲕⲁⲟⲩⲱⲛⲉ ϩⲓϫⲛⲟⲩⲱⲛⲉ ⲙⲡⲉⲓⲙⲁ ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲃⲟⲗϥ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ.
3 And when He is sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came near to Him by Himself, saying, “Tell us, when will these be? And what [is] the sign of Your coming, and of the full end of the age?” (aiōn g165)
ⲅ̅ⲉϥϩⲙⲟⲟⲥ ⲇⲉ ϩⲓϫⲙⲡⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲛϫⲟⲉⲓⲧ. ⲁⲩϯⲡⲉⲩⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛϭⲓⲙⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲥⲁⲟⲩ(ⲥ)ⲁ ⲉⲩϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲥ. ϫⲉ ⲁϫⲓⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲛ ϫⲉ ⲉⲣⲉⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲧⲛⲁⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲟⲩ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲛⲧⲉⲕⲡⲁⲣⲣⲟⲩⲥⲓⲁ ⲙⲛⲧⲥⲩⲛⲧⲉⲗⲉⲓⲁ ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲱⲛ. (aiōn g165)
4 And Jesus answering said to them, “Take heed that no one may lead you astray,
ⲇ̅ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱϣⲃ ⲛϭⲓⲓ̅ⲥ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ. ϫⲉ ϭⲱϣⲧ ⲙⲏⲡⲟⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲉⲟⲩⲁ ⲡⲗⲁⲛⲁ ⲙⲙⲱⲧⲛ.
5 for many will come in My Name, saying, I am the Christ, and they will lead many astray,

6 and you will begin to hear of wars, and reports of wars; see, do not be troubled, for it is necessary for all [these] to come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in various places;

8 and all these [are the] beginning of travails;
ⲏ̅ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ ⲧⲁⲣⲭⲏ ⲛⲛⲛⲁⲁⲕⲉ ⲛⲉ.
9 then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all the nations because of My Name;

10 and then will many be stumbled, and they will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.

11 And many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray;

12 and because of the abounding of the lawlessness, the love of the many will become cold;
ⲓ̅ⲃ̅ϩⲙⲡⲧⲣⲉⲥⲁϣⲁⲓ ⲛϭⲓⲧⲁⲛⲟⲙⲓⲁ ⲥⲛⲁⲁⲣⲟϣ ⲛϭⲓⲧⲁⲅⲁⲡⲏ ⲛϩⲁϩ.
13 but he who endured to the end, he will be saved;
ⲓ̅ⲅ̅ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁϩⲩⲡⲟⲙⲉⲓⲛⲉ ⲇⲉ ϣⲁⲃⲟⲗ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ.
14 and this good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the world, for a testimony to all the nations, and then will the end arrive.
ⲓ̅ⲇ̅ⲛⲥⲉⲧⲁϣⲉⲟⲉⲓϣ ⲙⲡⲉⲓⲉⲩⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲓⲟⲛ ⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲣⲟ ϩⲣⲁⲓ ϩⲛⲧⲟⲓⲕⲟⲩⲙⲉⲛⲏ ⲧⲏⲣⲥ. ⲉⲩⲙⲛⲧⲙⲛⲧⲣⲉ ⲛⲛϩⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣⲟⲩ. ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲥⲛⲏⲩ ⲛϭⲓⲑⲁⲏ.
15 Whenever, therefore, you may see the abomination of the desolation, that was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever is reading let him observe)
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅ϩⲟⲧⲁⲛ ⲇⲉ ⲧⲉⲧⲛϣⲁⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲧⲃⲟⲧⲉ ⲙⲡϣⲱϥ. ⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩϫⲟⲟⲥ ϩⲓⲧⲛⲇⲁⲛⲓⲏⲗ ⲡⲉⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲥⲁϩⲉⲣⲁⲧⲥ ϩⲙⲡⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲁⲁⲃ. ⲡⲉⲧⲱϣ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲛⲟⲓ.
16 then those in Judea—let them flee to the mountains;
ⲓ̅ⲋ̅ⲧⲟⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲧϩⲛϯⲟⲩⲇⲁⲓⲁ ⲙⲁⲣⲟⲩⲡⲱⲧ ⲉⲛⲧⲟⲩⲉⲓⲏ.
17 he on the housetop—do not let him come down to take up anything out of his house;

18 and he in the field—do not let him turn back to take his garments.

19 And woe to those with child, and to those giving suck in those days;
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲛⲛⲉⲧⲉⲉⲧ ⲙⲛⲛⲉⲧⲥⲛⲕⲟ ϩⲛⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
20 and pray that your flight may not be in winter, nor on a Sabbath;

21 for there will then be great tribulation, such as was not from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor may be.

22 And if those days were not shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but because of the chosen will those days be shortened.

23 Then if anyone may say to you, Behold, here [is] the Christ! Or, Here! You may not believe;

24 for there will arise false Christs, and false prophets, and they will give great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, also the chosen.
ⲕ̅ⲇ̅ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲧⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⲅⲁⲣ ⲛϭⲓϩⲁϩ ⲛⲭⲣⲏⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫ ⲙⲛϩⲉⲛⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲛⲛⲟⲩϫ. ⲛⲥⲉϯ ⲛϩⲛⲛⲟϭ ⲙⲙⲁⲉⲓⲛ ⲙⲛϩⲉⲛϣⲡⲏⲣⲉ ϩⲱⲥⲧⲉ ⲉϣϫⲉⲟⲩⲛϣϭⲟⲙ ⲉⲡⲗⲁⲛⲁ ⲛⲛⲁⲕⲉⲥⲱⲧⲡ.
25 Behold, I told you beforehand.

26 If therefore they may say to you, Behold, He is in the wilderness, you may not go forth; Behold, in the inner chambers, you may not believe;

27 for as the lightning comes forth from the east, and appears to the west, so will also be the coming of the Son of Man;

28 for wherever the carcass may be, there the eagles will be gathered together.

29 And immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;
ⲕ̅ⲑ̅ⲛⲧⲉⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲙⲛⲛⲥⲁⲧⲉⲑⲗⲓⲯⲓⲥ ⲛⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲡⲣⲏ ⲛⲁϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲛⲕⲁⲕⲉ. ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲟⲟϩ ⲛⲁϯ ⲁⲛ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲉⲓⲛ. ⲛⲥⲓⲟⲩ ⲥⲉⲛⲁϩⲉ ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲛⲧⲡⲉ. ⲛϭⲟⲙ ⲛⲙⲡⲏⲩⲉ ⲥⲉⲛⲁⲛⲟⲉⲓⲛ.
30 and then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in the sky; and then will all the tribes of the earth strike the breast, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of Heaven, with power and much glory;

32 And from the fig tree learn the allegory: when its branch may have already become tender, and it may put forth the leaves, you know that summer [is] near,

38 for as they were, in the days before the flood, eating, and drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered into the Ark,
