13 And as [Jesus] was coming out of the temple [^[a]area], one of His disciples said to Him, Look, Teacher! Notice the sort and quality of these stones and buildings!

² And Jesus replied to him, You see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be loosened and torn down.

³ And as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple [^[b]enclosure], Peter and James and John and Andrew asked Him privately,

⁴ Tell us when is this to take place and what will be the sign when these things, all [of them], are about to be accomplished?

⁵ And Jesus began to tell them, Be careful and watchful that no one misleads you [about it].

⁶ Many will come in [^[c]appropriating to themselves] the name [of Messiah] which belongs to Me [^[d]basing their claims on the use of My name], saying, I am [He]! And they will mislead many.

⁷ And when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not get alarmed (troubled and frightened); it is necessary [that these things] take place, but the end is not yet.

⁸ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places; there will be famines and calamities. This is but the beginning of the ^[e]intolerable anguish and suffering [only the first of the ^[f]birth pangs].

⁹ But look to yourselves; for they will turn you over to councils, and you will be beaten in the synagogues, and you will stand before governors and kings for My sake as a testimony to them.

¹⁰ And the good news (the Gospel) must first be preached to all nations.

¹¹ Now when they take you [to court] and put you under arrest, do not be anxious beforehand about what you are to say ^[g]nor [even] meditate about it; but say whatever is given you in that hour and at ^[h]the moment, for it is not you who will be speaking, but the Holy Spirit.
