And he said: Verily, I say to you that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all.
4
For all these have of their abundance cast into the offerings of God: but she of her want hath cast in all the living that she had.
5
And some saying of the temple that it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said:
6
These things which you see, the days will come in which there shall not be left a stone upon a stone that shall not be thrown down.
7
And they asked him, saying: Master, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign when they shall begin to come to pass?
8
Who said: Take heed you be not seduced: for many will come in my name, saying: I am he and the time is at hand. Go ye not therefore after them.
9
And when you shall hear of wars and seditions, be not terrified. These things must first come to pass: but the end is not yet presently.
10
Then he said to them: Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
11
And there shall be great earthquakes in divers places and pestilences and famines and terrors from heaven: and there shall be great signs.
12
But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and into prisons, dragging you before kings and governors, for my name’s sake.
13
And it shall happen unto you for a testimony.
