Matthew 24:9-14

Expanded Bible

⁹ “Then people will arrest you, hand you over to be ·hurt [persecuted; tortured], and kill you. ·They [The world; ^LAll nations] will hate you because ·you believe in me [you follow me; ^Lof my name]. ¹⁰ At that time, many will ·lose their faith [turn/fall away], and they will ·turn against [betray] each other and hate each other. ¹¹ Many false prophets will ·come [appear; arise] and ·cause many people to believe lies [deceive many]. ¹² There will be more and more ·evil [sin; lawlessness] in the world, so ·most people will stop showing their love for each other [^Lthe love of many/most will grow cold]. ¹³ But those people who ·keep their faith [endure; stand firm; persevere] until the end will be saved. ¹⁴ ·The Good News [This Gospel] about God’s kingdom will be preached in all the world, [^Las a testimony] to every nation. Then the end will come.
