Jesus Predicts the Destruction of the Temple(A)

(B)Then, as some spoke of the temple, how it was [a]adorned with beautiful stones and donations, He said, “These things which you see—the days will come in which (C)not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down.”

The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age(D)

So they asked Him, saying, “Teacher, but when will these things be? And what sign will there be when these things are about to take place?”

And He said: (E)“Take heed that you not be deceived. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time has drawn near.’ [b]Therefore do not [c]go after them. But when you hear of (F)wars and commotions, do not be terrified; for these things must come to pass first, but the end will not come immediately.”

10 (G)Then He said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11 And there will be great (H)earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.
