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,
And as Jesus went out, and was departing from the temple, his disciples came to observe to Him the magnificent buildings.
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.”
But Jesus said unto them, Do ye see all these things? Verily I tell you, there shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be demolished.
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)
And when He was got to the mount of olives, the disciples came to Him in private and said, Tell us when these things shall be, and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world. (aiōn g165)
4 And Jesus answering said to them, “Take heed that no one may lead you astray,
And Jesus answered them, See that no one deceive you:
5 for many will come in My Name, saying, I am the Christ, and they will lead many astray,
for many shall come in my name saying, I am the Christ, and shall deceive many.
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.
And ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, but be not troubled; for all these must indeed 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;
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in several places:
8 and all these [are the] beginning of travails;
all which are but the beginning of sorrows.
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;
Then shall they afflict you, and kill you; and ye shall be hated by all nations for my name:
10 and then will many be stumbled, and they will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
and then will many take offense, and betray one another, and hate one another: and many false prophets will rise up and deceive many:
11 And many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray;
and because iniquity shall abound,
12 and because of the abounding of the lawlessness, the love of the many will become cold;
the love of many will grow cold.
13 but he who endured to the end, he will be saved;
But he that endures to the end, shall be saved:
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.
and this gospel of the kingdom of heaven shall be preached in all the world, for a testimony to all the nations; and then shall the end come.
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)
When therefore ye shall see the desolating abomination, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing at the holy place, (let him, that readeth, attend) then let those in Judea flee to the mountains:
16 then those in Judea—let them flee to the mountains;
let not him that is at the top of the house come down into it,
17 he on the housetop—do not let him come down to take up anything out of his house;
to take any thing out of his house;
18 and he in the field—do not let him turn back to take his garments.
nor let him that is in the field return back to take his clothes.
19 And woe to those with child, and to those giving suck in those days;
But wo to them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days.
20 and pray that your flight may not be in winter, nor on a Sabbath;
Pray that your flight be not in the winter, nor on the 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.
for there shall be then great affliction, such as has not been from the beginning of the world unto this time, no, nor ever shall 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.
And unless those days be shortened, no one would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days shall be shortened.
23 Then if anyone may say to you, Behold, here [is] the Christ! Or, Here! You may not believe;
Then if any shall say to you, Behold here is the Messiah, or there; believe it not:
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.
for there shall rise up false Christs, and false prophets, who shall shew great signs and prodigies, so as to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
25 Behold, I told you beforehand.
Lo, I have told you before-hand: and therefore if they say to you,
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;
Behold, he is in the desert, go not out: behold, he is the secret chambers, believe them not:
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;
for as the lightning cometh from the east, and flashes in an instant even to the west, so shall be the coming of the Son of man.
28 for wherever the carcass may be, there the eagles will be gathered together.
For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles 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;
And immediately after the affliction of those days, the fun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give it's light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
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;
and then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and then shall all the tribes of the land mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming as on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory:
31 and He will send His messengers with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His chosen from the four winds, from the ends of the heavens to the ends thereof.
and He will send forth his messengers with a trumpet of a loud voice, and they shall gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
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,
Now learn a parable from the fig-tree: when it's branch is tender and bringeth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh;
33 so also you, when you may see all these, you know that it is near—at the doors.
so ye also, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near even at the doors.
34 Truly I say to you, this generation may not pass away until all these may come to pass.
Verily I tell you, this generation shall not pass away, till all these be fulfilled.
35 The heaven and the earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
36 And concerning that day and the hour no one has known—not even the messengers of the heavens—except My Father only;
But of THAT day and hour knoweth no one, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only:
37 and as the days of Noah—so will also be the coming of the Son of Man;
for as the days of Noah were, so shall be also the coming of the Son of man;
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,
for as in the days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, till the day that Noah entered into the ark,
39 and they did not know until the flood came and took all away, so will also be the coming of the Son of Man.
and knew not of it till the deluge came and took them all away; so shall be also the coming of the Son of man.
40 Then two [men] will be in the field: one is received, and one is left;
Then there shall be two in the field, the one shall be taken and the other left:
41 two [women] will be grinding in the mill: one is received, and one is left.
and two women grinding at the mill, one taken and one left.
42 Watch therefore, because you have not known in what hour your Lord comes;
Watch therefore, for ye know not at what hour your Lord cometh:
43 and know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief comes, he had watched, and did not permit his house to be broken through;
but this ye know, that if the master of the house had known at what hour the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broke open: therefore be ye also ready;
44 because of this also you, become ready, because in what hour you do not think, the Son of Man comes.
for the Son of man cometh at a time that ye think not of.
45 Who, then, is the servant, faithful and wise, whom his lord set over his household, to give them the nourishment in season?
Who then is the faithful and prudent servant, whom his lord hath set over his family to give them food in due season?
46 Blessed that servant, whom his lord, having come, will find doing so;
blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so employed:
47 truly I say to you that he will set him over all his substance.
verily I tell you, that he will set him over his whole estate.
48 And if that evil servant may say in his heart, My lord delays to come,
But if that servant be wicked and say in his heart, my master delayeth his coming,
49 and may begin to beat the fellow-servants, and to eat and to drink with the drunken,
and begin to beat his fellow-servants, and to revel with drunkards:
50 the lord of that servant will arrive in a day when he does not expect, and in an hour of which he does not know,
the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doth not expect him, and in an hour which he knows not,
51 and will cut him off, and will appoint his portion with the hypocrites; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.”
and will cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with hypocrites: where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
