1
And as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him: Master, behold what manner of stones and what buildings are here.
2
And Jesus answering, said to him: Seest thou all these great buildings? There shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.
3
And as he sat on the mount of Olivet over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him apart:
4
Tell us, when shall these things be and what shall be the sign when all these things shall begin to be fulfilled?
5
And Jesus answering, began to say to them: Take heed lest any man deceive you.
6
For many shall come in my name saying, I am he: and they shall deceive many.
7
And when you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, fear ye not. For such things must needs be: but the end is not yet.
8
For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places and famines. These things are the beginning of sorrows.
9
But look to yourselves. For they shall deliver you Up to councils: and in the synagogues you shall be beaten: and you shall stand before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony unto them.
10
And unto all nations the gospel must first be preached.
