21
And then if any man shall say to you: Lo, here is Christ. Lo, he is here: do not believe.
22
For there will rise up false Christs and false prophets: and they shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce (if it were possible) even the elect.
23

24
But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give her light.
25
And the stars of heaven shall be falling down and the powers that are in heaven shall be moved.
26
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds, with great power and glory.
27
And then shall he send his angels and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.
28

29
So you also when you shall see these things come to pass, know ye that it is very nigh, even at the doors.
30
Amen, I say to you that this generation shall not pass until all these things be done.
