Matthew 24

New International Version NIV

1 Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings.

2 “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you.

5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many.

6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.

7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.

9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me.

10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,

11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people.

12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold,

13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

15 “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand—

16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

17 Let no one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house.

18 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak.

19 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!

20 Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath.

21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

22 “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it.

24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

25 See, I have told you ahead of time.

26 “So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the wilderness,’ do not go out; or, ‘Here he is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it.

27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

28 Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.

29 “Immediately after the distress of those days “ ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’

30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earthwill mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory.

31 And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

32 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near.

33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that itis near, right at the door.

34 Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.

35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,but only the Father.

37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark;

39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.

40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.

41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.

42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.

43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.

44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time?

46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.

47 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

48 But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’

49 and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.

50 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of.

51 He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Lexham English Bible LEB

1 And [as] Jesus went out of the temple [courts] he was going along, and his disciples came up to point out to him the buildings of the temple.

2 But he answered [and] said to them, "Do you not see all these [things]? Truly I say to you, not [one] stone will be left here on [another] stone that will not be thrown down!"

3 And [as] he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came up to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these [things] happen, and what [will be] the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"

4 And Jesus answered [and] said to them, "Watch out that no one deceives you!

5 For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and they will deceive many.

6 And you are going to hear about wars and rumors of wars. See to it that you are not alarmed, for this must happen, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation will rise up against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in [various] places.

8 But all these [things] [are] the beginning of birth pains.

9 "Then they will hand you over to persecution and will kill you, and you will be hated by all the nations because of my name.

10 And then many will be led into sin and will betray one another and will hate one another,

11 and many false prophets will appear and will deceive many,

12 and because lawlessness will increase, the love of many will grow cold.

13 But the one who endures to the end--this person will be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed in the whole inhabited earth for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

15 "So when you see the abomination of desolation spoken about by the prophet Daniel standing in the holy place" (let the one who reads understand),

16 "then those in Judea must flee to the mountains!

17 The one who is on his housetop must not come down to take things out of his house,

18 and the one who is in the field must not turn back to pick up his cloak.

19 And woe to those {who are pregnant} and to those who are nursing [their babies] in those days!

20 But pray that your flight may not happen in winter or on a Sabbath.

21 For at that time there will be great tribulation, such as has not happened from the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will happen.

22 And unless those days had been shortened, {no human being would be saved}. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be shortened.

23 "At that time if anyone should say to you, 'Behold, here [is] the Christ,' or 'Here [he is],' do not believe [him]!

24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear, and will produce great signs and wonders in order to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

25 Behold, I have told you ahead of time!

26 Therefore if they say to you, 'Behold, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out, [or] 'Behold, he is in the inner rooms,' do not believe [it]!

27 For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so the coming of the Son of Man will be.

28 Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather.

29 "And immediately after the tribulation of those days, 'the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven will be shaken.'<note: A quotation from Isa 13:10; 34:4>

30 And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man arriving on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect together from the four winds, from [one] end of heaven to the [other] end of it.

32 "Now learn the parable from the fig tree: Whenever its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer [is] near.

33 So also you, when you see all these [things], know that he is near, at the door.

34 Truly I say to you that this generation will never pass away until all these [things] take place!

35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.

36 "But concerning that day and hour no one knows--not even the angels of heaven nor the Son--except the Father alone.

37 For just as the days of Noah [were], so the coming of the Son of Man will be.

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

39 And they did not know [anything] until the deluge came and swept [them] all away. So also the coming of the Son of Man will be.

40 Then there will be two men in the field; one will be taken and one left.

41 Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one left.

42 Therefore be on the alert, because you do not know what day your Lord is coming!

43 But understand this: that if the master of the house had known what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into.

44 For this [reason] you also must be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour that you do not think [he will come].

45 "Who then is the faithful and wise slave whom the master has put in charge of his household slaves to give them their food at the right time?

46 Blessed [is] that slave whom his master will find so doing [when he] comes back.

47 Truly I say to you that he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

48 But if that evil slave should say {to himself}, 'My master is staying away for a long time,'

49 and he begins to beat his fellow slaves and eats and drinks with drunkards,

50 the master of that slave will come on a day that he does not expect and at an hour that he does not know,

51 and will cut him in two and assign his place with the hypocrites. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth!
