Jesus

and he who did swear by the sanctuary, doth swear by it, and by Him who is dwelling in it;

`Because of this, lo, I send to you prophets, and wise men, and scribes, and of them ye will kill and crucify, and of them ye will scourge in your synagogues, and will pursue from city to city;

verily I say to you, all these things shall come upon this generation.

`Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that art killing the prophets, and stoning those sent unto thee, how often did I will to gather thy children together, as a hen doth gather her own chickens under the wings, and ye did not will.

for I say to you, ye may not see me henceforth, till ye may say, Blessed is he who is coming in the name of the Lord.'

And having gone forth, Jesus departed from the temple, and his disciples came near to show him the buildings of the temple,

and Jesus said to them, `Do ye not see all these? verily I say to you, There may not be left here a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.'

And when he is sitting on the mount of the Olives, the disciples came near to him by himself, saying, `Tell us, when shall these be? and what is the sign of thy presence, and of the full end of the age?'

And Jesus answering said to them, `Take heed that no one may lead you astray,

for many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ, and they shall lead many astray,

then they shall deliver you up to tribulation, and shall kill you, and ye shall be hated by all the nations because of my name;

`Then if any one may say to you, Lo, here is the Christ! or here! ye may not believe;

Lo, I did tell you beforehand.

`If therefore they may say to you, Lo, in the wilderness he is, ye may not go forth; lo, in the inner chambers, ye may not believe;

for as the lightning doth come forth from the east, and doth appear unto the west, so shall be also the presence of the Son of Man;

and then shall appear the sign of the Son of Man in the heaven; and then shall all the tribes of the earth smite the breast, and they shall see the Son of Man coming upon the clouds of the heaven, with power and much glory;

and he shall send his messengers with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his chosen from the four winds, from the ends of the heavens unto the ends thereof.

Verily I say to you, this generation may not pass away till all these may come to pass.

The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

`And concerning that day and the hour no one hath known--not even the messengers of the heavens--except my Father only;

and as the days of Noah--so shall be also the presence of the Son of Man;

and they did not know till the flood came and took all away; so shall be also the presence of the Son of Man.

`Watch ye therefore, because ye have not known in what hour your Lord doth come;

because of this also ye, become ye ready, because in what hour ye do not think, the Son of Man doth come.

verily I say to you, that over all his substance he will set him.
