Mark 13:3-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Signs of the End of the Age
3 While He was sitting on the Mount of Olives(A) across from the temple complex,(B) Peter,(C) James,(D) John,(E) and Andrew(F) asked Him privately, 4 “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign when all these things are about to take place?”
5 Then Jesus began by telling them: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 6 Many will come in My name,(G) saying, ‘I am He,’(H) and they will deceive(I) many. 7 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars,(J) don’t be alarmed;(K) these things must take place,(L) but the end is not yet. 8 For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.(M) There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines.[a] These are the beginning(N) of birth pains.(O)

International Standard Version
Cults, Revolutions, Famines, and Earthquakes(A)
3 As Jesus[a] was sitting on the Mount of Olives facing the Temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew were asking him privately, 4 “Tell us, when will these things happen, and what is to be the sign when these things will be put into effect?”
5 Jesus began by telling them, “See to it that no one deceives you. 6 Many will come in my name, proclaiming, ‘I AM,’ and they will deceive many people.[b] 7 But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, don’t panic. These things must take place, but the end won’t have come yet, 8 because nation will rise up in arms against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. Furthermore, there will be earthquakes and famines in various places. These things are only a beginning of agonies.”
