1
And as He went out of the temple, one of His disciples said unto Him, "Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!"
2
And Jesus answering, said unto him, "Seest thou these great buildings? There shall not be left one stone upon another that shall not be thrown down."
3
And as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked Him privately,
4
"Tell us, when shall these things be? And what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?"
5
And Jesus answering them, began to say, "Take heed lest any man deceive you.
6
For many shall come in My name, saying, `I am Christ!' and shall deceive many.
7
And when ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be ye not troubled, for such things must come to pass; but the end shall not be yet.
8
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.
9
"But take heed for yourselves, for they shall deliver you up to councils, and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten. And ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony against them.
10
And the Gospel must first be proclaimed among all nations.
