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.
11
And when they shall lead you and deliver you up, be not thoughtful beforehand what you shall speak: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye. For it is not you that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
12
And the brother shall betray his brother unto death, and the father his son; and children shall rise up against their parents and shall work their death.
13
And you shall be hated by all men for my name’s sake. But he that shall endure unto the end, he shall be saved.
14
And when you shall see the abomination of desolation, standing where it ought not (he that readeth let him understand): then let them that are in Judea flee unto the mountains.
15
And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house nor enter therein to take any thing out of the house.
16
And let him that shall be in the field not turn back to take up his garment.
17
And woe to them that are with child and that give suck in those days.
18
But pray ye that these things happen not in winter.
