23
and they shall say to you, Lo, here; or lo, there; ye may not go away, nor follow;
24
for as the lightning that is lightening out of the one [part] under heaven, to the other part under heaven doth shine, so shall be also the Son of Man in his day;
25
and first it behoveth him to suffer many things, and to be rejected by this generation.
26
`And, as it came to pass in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of Man;
27
they were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, they were given in marriage, till the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the deluge came, and destroyed all;
28
in like manner also, as it came to pass in the days of Lot; they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building;
29
and on the day Lot went forth from Sodom, He rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed all.
30
`According to these things it shall be, in the day the Son of Man is revealed;
31
in that day, he who shall be on the house top, and his vessels in the house, let him not come down to take them away; and he in the field, in like manner, let him not turn backward;
32
remember the wife of Lot.
33
Whoever may seek to save his life, shall lose it; and whoever may lose it, shall preserve it.
