* And he looked up (5660 ), and saw (5627 ) the rich men casting (5723 ) their gifts into the treasury . * And he saw (5627 ) also a certain poor widow casting (5723 ) in thither two mites . * And he said (5627 ), Of a truth I say (5719 ) unto you , that this poor widow hath cast (5627 ) in more than they all : * For all these have of their abundance (5723 ) cast (5627 ) in unto the offerings of God : but she (5625 ) of her penury hath cast (5627 ) in all the living that she had (5707 ). * And as some spake (5723 ) of the temple , how it was adorned (5769 ) with goodly stones and gifts , he said (5627 ), * As for these things which ye behold (5719 ), the days will come (5695 ), in the which there shall not be left (5701 ) one stone upon another , that shall not be thrown down (5701 ). * And they asked (5656 ) him , saying (5723 ), Master , but when shall these things be (5704 )? and what sign will there be when these things shall (5725 ) come to pass (5738 )? * And he said (5627 ), Take heed (5720 ) that ye be not deceived (5686 ): for many shall come (5695 ) in my name , saying (5723 ), I am (5748 ) Christ ; and the time draweth near (5758 ): go ye (5680 ) not therefore after them . * But when ye shall hear (5661 ) of wars and commotions , be not terrified (5686 ): for these things must (5748 ) first come to pass (5635 ); but the end is not by and by . * Then said he (5707 ) unto them , Nation shall rise (5701 ) against nation , and kingdom against kingdom : * And great earthquakes shall be (5704 ) in divers places , and famines , and pestilences ; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be (5704 ) from heaven . * But before all these , they shall lay (5692 ) their hands on you , and persecute (5692 ) you , delivering (5723 ) you up to the synagogues , and into prisons , being brought (5746 ) before kings and rulers for my names sake . * And it shall turn (5695 ) to you for a testimony . * Settle (5640 ) it therefore in your hearts , not to meditate before (5721 ) what ye shall answer (5677 ): * For I will give (5692 ) you a mouth and wisdom , which all your adversaries (5740 ) shall not be able (5695 ) to gainsay (5629 ) nor resist (5629 ). * And ye shall be betrayed (5701 ) both by parents , and brethren , and kinsfolks , and friends ; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death (5692 ). * And ye shall be (5704 ) hated (5746 ) of all men for my names sake . * But there shall not an hair of your head perish (5643 ). * In your patience possess ye (5663 ) your souls . * And when ye shall see (5632 ) Jerusalem compassed (5746 ) with armies , then know (5628 ) that the desolation thereof is nigh (5758 ). * Then let them which are in Judaea flee (5720 ) to the mountains ; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out (5720 ); and let not them that are in the countries enter (5737 ) thereinto . * For these be (5748 ) the days of vengeance , that all things which are written (5772 ) may be fulfilled (5683 ). * But woe unto them that are with child (5723 ), and to them that give suck (5723 ), in those days ! for there shall be (5704 ) great distress in the land , and wrath upon this people . * And they shall fall (5699 ) by the edge of the sword , and shall be led away captive (5701 ) into all nations : and Jerusalem shall be (5704 ) trodden down (5746 ) of the Gentiles , until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled (5686 ). * And there shall be (5704 ) signs in the sun , and in the moon , and in the stars ; and upon the earth distress of nations , with perplexity ; the sea and the waves roaring (5723 ); * Mens hearts failing them (5723 ) for fear , and for looking after those things which are coming on (5740 ) the earth : for the powers of heaven shall be shaken (5701 ). * And then shall they see (5695 ) the Son of man coming (5740 ) in a cloud with power and great glory . * And when these things begin (5734 ) to come to pass (5738 ), then look up (5657 ), and lift up (5657 ) your heads ; for your redemption draweth nigh (5719 ). * And he spake (5627 ) to them a parable ; Behold (5628 ) the fig tree , and all the trees ; * When they now shoot forth (5632 ), ye see (5723 ) and know (5719 ) of your own selves that summer is (5748 ) now nigh at hand . * So likewise ye , when ye see (5632 ) these things come to pass (5740 ), know ye (5720 ) that the kingdom of God is (5748 ) nigh at hand . * Verily I say (5719 ) unto you , This generation shall not pass away (5632 ), till all be fulfilled (5638 ). * Heaven and earth shall pass away (5695 ): but my words shall not pass away (5632 ). * And take heed (5720 ) to yourselves , lest at any time your hearts be overcharged (5686 ) with surfeiting , and drunkenness , and cares of this life , and so that day come (5632 ) upon you unawares . * For as a snare shall it come (5695 ) on all them that dwell (5740 ) on the face of the whole earth . * Watch ye (5720 ) therefore , and pray (5740 ) always , that ye may be accounted worthy (5686 ) to escape (5629 ) all these things that shall (5723 ) come to pass (5738 ), and to stand (5683 ) before the Son of man . * And in the day time he was (5713 ) teaching (5723 ) in the temple ; and at night he went out (5740 ), and abode (5711 ) in the mount that is called (5746 ) the mount of Olives . * And all the people came early in the morning (5707 ) to him in the temple , for to hear (5721 ) him .
