MARK – CHAPTER 13
1
And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings <i>are here! </i>
2
And Jesus answering said unto him, <span class="j">Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. </span>
3
And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
4
Tell us, when shall these things be? and what <i>shall be</i> the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?
5
And Jesus answering them began to say, <span class="j">Take heed lest any <i>man</i> deceive you: </span>
6
<span class="j">For many shall come in my name, saying, I am <i>Christ;</i> and shall deceive many. </span>
7
<span class="j">And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for <i>such things</i> must needs be; but the end <i>shall</i> not <i>be</i> yet. </span>
8
<span class="j">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 <i>are</i> the beginnings of sorrows. </span><span class="j"></span>
9
<span class="j">But take heed to 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. </span>
10
<span class="j">And the gospel must first be published among all nations. </span>
11
<span class="j">But when they shall lead <i>you,</i> and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. </span>
12
<span class="j">Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against <i>their</i> parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. </span>
13
<span class="j">And ye shall be hated of all <i>men</i> for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. </span><span class="j"></span>
14
<span class="j">But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not,</span> (let him that readeth understand,) <span class="j">then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains: </span>
15
<span class="j">And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter <i>therein,</i> to take any thing out of his house: </span>
16
<span class="j">And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment. </span>
17
<span class="j">But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! </span>
18
<span class="j">And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. </span>
19
<span class="j">For <i>in</i> those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. </span>
20
<span class="j">And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days. </span>
21
<span class="j">And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here <i>is</i> Christ; or, lo, <i>he is</i> there; believe <i>him</i> not: </span>
22
<span class="j">For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if <i>it were</i> possible, even the elect. </span>
23
<span class="j">But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. </span><span class="j"></span>
24
<span class="j">But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, </span>
25
<span class="j">And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. </span>
26
<span class="j">And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. </span>
27
<span class="j">And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven. </span>
28
<span class="j">Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near: </span>
29
<span class="j">So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, <i>even</i> at the doors. </span>
30
<span class="j">Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done. </span>
31
<span class="j">Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. </span><span class="j"></span>
32
<span class="j">But of that day and <i>that</i> hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. </span>
33
<span class="j">Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. </span>
34
<span class="j"><i>For the Son of man is</i> as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. </span>
35
<span class="j">Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: </span>
36
<span class="j">Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. </span>
37
<span class="j">And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch. </span><span class="j"></span>
