Matthew 24:3-14

New King James Version

The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age^(A)

³Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, ^(B)the disciples came to Him privately, saying, ^(C)“Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

⁴And Jesus answered and said to them: ^(D)“Take heed that no one deceives you. ⁵For ^(E)many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ ^(F)and will deceive many. ⁶And you will hear of ^(G)wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for ^[a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. ⁷For ^(H)nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be ^(I)famines, ^[b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. ⁸All these are the beginning of sorrows.

⁹^(J)“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. ¹⁰And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. ¹¹Then ^(K)many false prophets will rise up and ^(L)deceive many. ¹²And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow ^(M)cold. ¹³^(N)But he who endures to the end shall be saved. ¹⁴And this ^(O)gospel of the kingdom ^(P)will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

New King James Version

The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age^(A)

³Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, ^(B)Peter, ^(C)James, ^(D)John, and ^(E)Andrew asked Him privately, ⁴^(F)“Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign when all these things will be fulfilled?”

⁵And Jesus, answering them, began to say: ^(G)“Take heed that no one deceives you. ⁶For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and will deceive many. ⁷But when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such things must happen, but the end is not yet. ⁸For nation will rise against nation, and ^(H)kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines ^[a]and troubles. ^(I)These are the beginnings of ^[b]sorrows.

⁹“But ^(J)watch out for yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be beaten in the synagogues. You will ^[c]be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them. ¹⁰And ^(K)the gospel must first be preached to all the nations. ¹¹^(L)But when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand, ^[d]or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that; for it is not you who speak, ^(M)but the Holy Spirit. ¹²Now ^(N)brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death. ¹³^(O)And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But ^(P)he who ^[e]endures to the end shall be saved.
