Mark 13:28-31
World English Bible
28 “Now from the fig tree, learn this parable. When the branch has now become tender, and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near; 29 even so you also, when you see these things coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors. 30 Most certainly I say to you, this generation[a] will not pass away until all these things happen. 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

New Living Translation
28 “Now learn a lesson from the fig tree. When its branches bud and its leaves begin to sprout, you know that summer is near. 29 In the same way, when you see all these things taking place, you can know that his return is very near, right at the door. 30 I tell you the truth, this generation[a] will not pass from the scene before all these things take place. 31 Heaven and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear.
