‏ Mark 13

1 And as Jesus went out of the temple, his disciples came to him for to hear him, saying, Master, show us concerning the buildings of the Temple. 2 And he said unto them, Behold ye these stones of the temple, and all this great work, and buildings of the temple? 3 Verily I say unto you, they shall be thrown down and left unto the Jews desolate. 4 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things, and do ye not understand them? 5 Verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here upon this temple, one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 6 And Jesus left them and went upon the mount of Olives. 7 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, 8 Tell us, when shall these things be which thou hast said, concerning the destruction of the temple, and the Jews? 9 And what is the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world, (or the destruction of the wicked, which is the end of the world?) 10 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you, for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ, and shall deceive many. 11 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and kill you, and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. 12 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another; and many false prophets shall arise, and shall deceive many; 13 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold; but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoked of by Daniel the prophet concerning the destruction of Jerusalem, then ye shall stand in the holy place. (Whoso readeth let him understand.) 15 Then let them who be in Judea flee into the mountains; 16 And let him who is on the housetop flee, and not return to take anything out of his house; 17 Neither let him who is in the field, return back to take his clothes. 18 And woe unto them that are with child, and unto them that give suck in those days. 19 Therefore pray ye the Lord, that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day. 20 For then, in those days, shall be great tribulation on the Jews, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem; such as was not before sent upon Israel, of God, since the beginning of their kingdom, (for it is written their enemies shall scatter them,) until this time; no, nor ever shall be sent again upon Israel. 21 All these things are the beginnings of sorrows. 22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved; but for the elect's sake, according to the covenant, those days shall be shortened. 23 Behold these things I have spoken unto you concerning the Jews. 24 And then immediately after the tribulation of those days which shall come upon Jerusalem if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ; or there, believe him not. 25 For in those days there shall also arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders; insomuch, that if possible, they shall deceive the very elect, who are the elect according to the covenant. 26 Behold, I speak these things unto you, for the elect's sake. 27 And ye also shall hear of wars, and rumors of wars; see that ye be not troubled; for all I have told you must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 28 Behold, I have told you before, wherefore it they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth; Behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 29 For as the light of the morning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west, and covereth the whole earth, so shall also the coming of the Son of Man be. 30 And now I show unto you a parable. Behold, wheresoever the carcass is, there will the eagles be gathered together; 31 So likewise, shall mine elect be gathered from the four quarters of the earth. 32 And they shall hear of wars and rumors of wars. Behold, I speak unto you for mine elect's sake. 33 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; 34 There shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes in divers places. 35 And again, because iniquity shall abound, the love of men shall wax cold; but he who shall not be overcome, the same shall be saved. 36 And again this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world, for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come, or the destruction of the wicked. 37 There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth; and thus cometh the end.
