30 When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near.

32 I assure you that this generation won't pass away until everything has happened.

33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will certainly not pass away.

34 "Take care that your hearts aren't dulled by drinking parties, drunkenness, and the anxieties of day-to-day life. Don't let that day fall upon you unexpectedly,

36 Stay alert at all times, praying that you are strong enough to escape everything that is about to happen and to stand before the Human One."
