1 And as he was departing from the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Teacher, observe these fine stones and fine structures.”	1 And as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him: Master, behold what manner of stones and what buildings are here.
2 And in response, Jesus said to him: “Do you see all these great buildings? There shall not be left stone upon stone, which is not torn down.”	2 And Jesus answering, said to him: Seest thou all these great buildings? There shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.
3 And as he sat at the Mount of Olives, opposite the temple, Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew questioned him privately.	3 And as he sat on the mount of Olivet over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him apart:
4 “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign when all these things will begin to be fulfilled?”	4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall begin to be fulfilled?
5 And Jesus, answering, began to say to them: “See to it that no one leads you astray.	5 And Jesus answering, began to say to them, Take heed lest any man deceive you.
6 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘For I am he,’ and they will lead many astray.	6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am he; and they shall deceive many.
7 But when you will have heard of wars and rumors of wars, you should not be afraid. For these things must be, but the end is not so soon.	7 And when you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, fear ye not. For such things must needs be, but the end is not yet.
8 For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom over kingdom, and there shall be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are but the beginning of the sorrows.	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 see to yourselves. For they will hand you over to councils, and in the synagogues you will be beaten, and you shall stand before governors and kings because of me, as a testimony for them.	9 But look to yourselves.

10 And the Gospel must first be preached to all nations.	10 And unto all nations the gospel must first be preached.
11 And when they have seized you and handed you over, do not consider in advance what to say. But whatever will be given you in that hour, say that. For you will not be speaking, but the Holy Spirit.	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 Then brother will betray brother to death, and the father, a son; and children will rise up against their parents and will bring about their death.	12 And the brother shall betray his brother unto death, and the father his son; and children shall rise up against the parents, and shall work their death.
13 And you will be hated by all for the sake of my name. But whoever will have persevered unto the end, the same will be saved.	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 Then, when you have seen the abomination of desolation, standing where it ought not to be, let the reader understand: then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.	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 whoever is on the rooftop not descend to the house, nor enter so as to take anything from the house.	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 whoever may be in the field not return to take his garment.	16 And let him that shall be in the field, not turn back to take up his garment.

19 For those days shall have such tribulations as have not been since the beginning of the creation that God founded, even until now, and shall not be.	19 For in those days shall be such tribulations, as were not from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, neither shall be.
20 And unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would be saved. But, for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened the days.	20 And unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh should be saved: but for the sake of the elect which he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.
21 And then, if anyone will have said to you: ‘Behold, here is the Christ. Behold, in that place.’ Do not believe it.	21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; lo, he is here: do not believe.
22 For false Christs and false prophets will rise up, and they will present signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if it were possible, even the elect.	22 For there will rise up false Christs and false prophets, and they shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce (if it were possible) even the elect.

28 Now from the fig tree discern a parable. When its branch becomes tender and the foliage has been formed, you know that summer is very near.	28 Now of the fig tree learn ye a parable. When the branch thereof is now tender, and the leaves are come forth, you know that summer is very near.
29 So also, when you will have seen these things happen, know that it is very near, even at the doors.	29 So you also when you shall see these things come to pass, know ye that it is very nigh, even at the doors.
30 Amen I say to you, that this lineage shall not pass away, until all these things have happened.	30 Amen I say to you, that this generation shall not pass, until all these things be done.

34 It is like a man who, setting out on a sojourn, left behind his house, and gave his servants authority over every work, and instructed the doorkeeper to stand watch.	34 Even as a man who going into a far country, left his house; and gave authority to his servants over every work, and commanded the porter to watch.
35 Therefore, be vigilant, for you do not know when the lord of the house may arrive: in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at first light, or in the morning.	35 Watch ye therefor, (for you know not when the lord of the house cometh: at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning,)
36 Otherwise, when he will have arrived unexpectedly, he may find you sleeping.	36 Lest coming on a sudden, he find you sleeping.
37 But what I say to you, I say to all: Be vigilant.”	37 And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch.
