13 And when he went out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, Master, behold^[a], what manner stones, and what manner buildings.

² And Jesus answered, and said to him, Seest thou all these great buildings? there shall not be left a stone on a stone, which shall not be destroyed.^[b]

³ And when he sat in the mount of Olives against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him by themselves,

⁴ Say thou to us, when these things shall be done, and what token shall be [and what sign shall be], when all these things shall begin to be ended.

⁵ And Jesus answered, and began to say to them, Look ye, that no man deceive you; [And Jesus answering began to say to them, See ye, that no man deceive you;]

⁶ for many shall come in my name, saying, That I am; and they shall deceive many.

⁷ And when ye [shall] hear battles and opinions of battles, dread ye not; for it behooveth these things to be done, but not yet at once [anon] is the end [for it behooveth that these things be done, but the end is not yet].

⁸ For folk shall rise on [upon] folk, and realm on [upon] realm, and earth-movings and hunger shall be by places [and earth-moving shall be by places and hunger]; these things shall be beginnings of sorrows.

⁹ But see ye yourselves, for they shall take you in councils, and ye shall be beaten in synagogues; and ye shall stand before kings and doomsmen for me, in witnessing to them.

¹⁰ And it behooveth, that the gospel be first preached among all folk.

¹¹ And when they [shall] take you, and lead you forth, do not ye before think what ye shall speak, but speak ye that thing that shall be given to you in that hour; for ye be not the speakers [soothly ye be not speaking], but the Holy Ghost.

¹² For the brother shall betake the brother into death [Forsooth the brother shall betray the brother into death], and the father the son, and sons shall rise together against fathers and mothers, and [shall] punish them by death.

¹³ And ye shall be in hate to all men for my name; but he that lasteth into the end, shall be safe.^[c]

¹⁴ But when ye shall see the abomination of discomfort, standing where it oweth not; he that readeth, understand; then they that be in Judaea, flee to the mountains.

¹⁵ And he that is above in the roof, come not down into the house, neither enter he, to take any thing of his house;

¹⁶ and he that shall be in the field, turn not again behind to take his cloak. [and he that shall be in the field, turn he not again behind for to take his cloth.]

¹⁷ But woe to them that be with child, and nourishing [and nursing] in those days.

¹⁸ Therefore pray ye, that those things be not done in winter. [Therefore pray ye, that your flying be not done in winter, or in sabbath.]

¹⁹ But those days of tribulation shall be such, which manner were not from the beginning of creature, which God hath made [which God made], till now, neither shall be.

²⁰ And but the Lord had abridged those days, all flesh had not be safe; but for the chosen which he chose [whom he chose], the Lord hath made short the days.

²¹ And then if any man [shall] say to you, Lo! here is Christ, lo! there, believe ye not.

²² For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall give tokens and wonders, to deceive, if it may be done, yea, them that be chosen.^[d]

²³ Therefore take ye keep; lo! I have before-said to you all things.

²⁴ But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be made dark, and the moon shall not give her light,

²⁵ and the stars of heaven shall fall down, and the virtues that be in heavens, shall be moved.

²⁶ And then they shall see man's Son coming in the clouds of heaven, with great virtue and glory.

²⁷ And then he shall send his angels, and shall gather his chosen from the four winds, from the highest thing of earth till to the highest thing of heaven [from the lowest thing of earth unto the highest thing of heaven].

²⁸ But of the fig tree learn ye the parable [Forsooth of the fig tree learn ye a parable]. When now his branch is tender, and leaves be sprung out, ye know that summer is nigh.

²⁹ So [and] when ye [shall] see these things be done, know ye, that it is nigh in the doors.

³⁰ Truly I say to you, that this generation shall not pass away, till all these things be done.

³¹ Heaven and earth shall pass, but my words shall not pass.

³² But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither angels in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

³³ See ye, wake ye, and pray ye; for ye know not, when the time is.

³⁴ For as a man that is gone far in pilgrimage, left his house, and gave to his servants power of every work, and commanded to the porter, that he wake [that he should wake].

³⁵ Therefore wake ye, for ye know not, when the lord of the house cometh, in the eventide [in the even], or at midnight, or at cock's crowing, or in the morning;

³⁶ lest when he come suddenly, he find you sleeping.

³⁷ Forsooth that that I say to you, I say to all, Wake ye.
