DISCOURS SUR LE MONT DES OLIVIERS, 24–25

Destruction de Jérusalem et avènement du Fils de l’homme

24 Comme Jésus s’en allait, au sortir du temple, ses disciples s’approchèrent pour lui en faire remarquer les constructions. 2 Mais il leur dit: Voyez-vous tout cela? Je vous le dis en vérité, il ne restera pas ici pierre sur pierre qui ne soit renversée.

3 Il s’assit sur la montagne des Oliviers. Et les disciples vinrent en particulier lui poser cette question: Dis-nous, quand cela arrivera-t-il, et quel sera le signe de ton avènement et de la fin du monde?

4 Jésus leur répondit: Prenez garde que personne ne vous séduise. 5 Car plusieurs viendront sous mon nom, disant: C’est moi qui suis le Christ. Et ils séduiront beaucoup de gens. 6 Vous entendrez parler de guerres et de bruits de guerres: gardez-vous d’être troublés, car il faut que ces choses arrivent. Mais ce ne sera pas encore la fin. 7 Une nation s’élèvera contre une nation, et un royaume contre un royaume, et il y aura, en divers lieux, des famines et des tremblements de terre. 8 Tout cela ne sera que le commencement des douleurs. 9 Alors on vous livrera aux tourments, et l’on vous fera mourir; et vous serez haïs de toutes les nations, à cause de mon nom. 10 Alors aussi plusieurs succomberont, et ils se trahiront, se haïront les uns les autres. 11 Plusieurs faux prophètes s’élèveront, et ils séduiront beaucoup de gens. 12 Et, parce que l’iniquité se sera accrue, l’amour du plus grand nombre se refroidira. 13 Mais celui qui persévérera jusqu’à la fin sera sauvé. 14 Cette bonne nouvelle du royaume sera prêchée dans le monde entier, pour servir de témoignage à toutes les nations. Alors viendra la fin.

15 C’est pourquoi, lorsque vous verrez l’abomination de la désolation, dont a parlé le prophète Daniel, établie en lieu saint – que celui qui lit fasse attention! – 16 alors, que ceux qui seront en Judée fuient dans les montagnes; 17 que celui qui sera sur le toit ne descende pas pour prendre ce qui est dans sa maison; 18 et que celui qui sera dans les champs ne retourne pas en arrière pour prendre son manteau. 19 Malheur aux femmes qui seront enceintes et à celles qui allaiteront en ces jours-là! 20 Priez pour que votre fuite n’arrive pas en hiver, ni un jour de sabbat. 21 Car alors, la détresse sera si grande qu’il n’y en a point eu de pareille depuis le commencement du monde jusqu’à présent, et qu’il n’y en aura jamais. 22 Et, si ces jours n’étaient abrégés, personne ne serait sauvé; mais, à cause des élus, ces jours seront abrégés. 23 Si quelqu’un vous dit alors: Le Christ est ici, ou: Il est là, ne le croyez pas. 24 Car il s’élèvera de faux christs et de faux prophètes; ils feront de grands prodiges et des miracles, au point de séduire, s’il était possible, même les élus. 25 Voici, je vous l’ai annoncé d’avance. 26 Si donc on vous dit: Voici, il est dans le désert, n’y allez pas; voici, il est dans les chambres, ne le croyez pas. 27 Car, comme l’éclair part de l’orient et se montre jusqu’en occident, ainsi sera l’avènement du Fils de l’homme. 28 En quelque lieu que soit le cadavre, là s’assembleront les vautours[a].

29 Aussitôt après ces jours de détresse, le soleil s’obscurcira, la lune ne donnera plus sa lumière, les étoiles tomberont du ciel, et les puissances des cieux seront ébranlées. 30 Alors le signe du Fils de l’homme paraîtra dans le ciel, toutes les tribus de la terre se lamenteront, et elles verront le Fils de l’homme venant sur les nuées du ciel avec puissance et une grande gloire. 31 Il enverra ses anges avec la trompette retentissante, et ils rassembleront ses élus des quatre vents, d’une extrémité des cieux à l’autre. 32 Instruisez-vous par une comparaison tirée du figuier. Dès que ses branches deviennent tendres, et que les feuilles poussent, vous savez que l’été est proche. 33 De même, quand vous verrez toutes ces choses, sachez que le Fils de l’homme est proche, à la porte. 34 Je vous le dis en vérité, cette génération ne passera point, que tout cela n’arrive. 35 Le ciel et la terre passeront, mais mes paroles ne passeront point.

Exhortation à la vigilance

36 Pour ce qui est du jour et de l’heure, personne ne le sait, ni les anges des cieux, ni le Fils, mais le Père seul. 37 Ce qui arriva du temps de Noé arrivera de même à l’avènement du Fils de l’homme. 38 Car, dans les jours qui précédèrent le déluge, les hommes mangeaient et buvaient, se mariaient et mariaient leurs enfants, jusqu’au jour où Noé entra dans l’arche; 39 et ils ne se doutèrent de rien, jusqu’à ce que le déluge vienne et les emporte tous: il en sera de même à l’avènement du Fils de l’homme. 40 Alors, de deux hommes qui seront dans un champ, l’un sera pris et l’autre laissé; 41 de deux femmes qui moudront à la meule, l’une sera prise et l’autre laissée. 42 Veillez donc, puisque vous ne savez pas quel jour votre Seigneur viendra. 43 Sachez-le bien, si le maître de la maison savait à quelle veille de la nuit le voleur doit venir, il veillerait et ne laisserait pas percer sa maison. 44 C’est pourquoi, vous aussi, tenez-vous prêts, car le Fils de l’homme viendra à l’heure où vous n’y penserez pas.

45 Quel est donc le serviteur fidèle et prudent, que son maître a établi sur ses gens, pour leur donner la nourriture au temps convenable? 46 Heureux ce serviteur, que son maître, à son arrivée, trouvera faisant ainsi! 47 Je vous le dis en vérité, il l’établira sur tous ses biens. 48 Mais, si c’est un méchant serviteur, qui dise en lui-même: Mon maître tarde à venir, 49 s’il se met à battre ses compagnons, s’il mange et boit avec les ivrognes, 50 le maître de ce serviteur viendra le jour où il ne s’y attend pas et à l’heure qu’il ne connaît pas, 51 il le mettra en pièces, et lui donnera sa part avec les hypocrites: c’est là qu’il y aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents.

Matthew 24
Tree of Life Version

24 Now when Yeshua went out and was going away from the Temple, His disciples came up to point out to Him the Temple buildings. 2 “Don’t you see all these?” He responded to them. “Amen, I tell you, not one stone will be left here on top of another—every one will be torn down!”

Signs of the End of Time

3 As He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things happen? What will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”

4 Yeshua answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray! 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will lead many astray. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must happen but it is not yet the end. 7 For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.[a] And there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 But all these things are only the beginning of birth pains.

9 “Then they will hand you over to persecution and will kill you. You will be hated by all the nations because of My name. 10 And then many will fall away and will betray one another and hate one other. 11 Many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12 Because lawlessness will multiply, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved. 14 This Good News of the kingdom shall be proclaimed in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

15 “So when you see ‘the abomination of desolation,’[b] which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the Holy Place (let the reader understand), 16 then those in Judea must flee to the mountains. 17 The one on the roof must not go down to take what is in his house, 18 and the one in the field must not turn back to get his coat. 19 Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! 20 Pray that your escape will not happen in winter, or on Shabbat. 21 For then there will be great trouble,[c] such as has not happened since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will. 22 And unless those days were cut short, no one would be delivered. But for the sake of the chosen, those days will be cut short.

23 “Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here’s the Messiah,’ or ‘There He is,’ do not believe it. 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will rise up[d] and show great signs and wonders so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.

26 “So if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the wilderness,’ do not go out. Or, ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. 27 For just as lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so also will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28 For wherever the carcass is, there the vultures will gather.

29 “But immediately after the trouble of those days,

‘the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light
and the stars will fall from heaven
and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’[e]

30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the land will mourn, and they will see ‘the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven’[f] with power and great glory. 31 He will send out His angels with a great shofar, and they will gather together His chosen from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”[g]

Watching for Messiah’s Return

32 “Now learn the parable from the fig tree. When its branch becomes tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 So also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, at the door. 34 Amen, I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things happen. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away. [h] 36 But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven nor the Son,[i] except the Father alone.

37 “For just as the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in those days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered the ark. 39 And they did not understand until the flood came and swept them all away.[j] So shall it be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Then two men will be in the field, one taken and one left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the mill, one taken and one left. [k] 42 Therefore stay alert; for you do not know what day your Lord is coming. 43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what time the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and not let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.”

The Faithful Servant

45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master put in charge of his household to give them food at the proper time? 46 Blessed is that servant whose master finds him so doing when he comes. 47 Amen, I tell you, his master will put him in charge of all his possessions. 48 But if that wicked servant says in his heart, ‘My master is taking a long time,’ 49 and he begins to beat his fellow servants, and he eats and drinks with drunkards, 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know. 51 And he will cut him in two and assign his place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”

Matthew 24
Worldwide English (New Testament)

24 Jesus left the temple and was going away. His disciples came to him. They wanted to show him the different buildings that were a part of the temple.

2 But Jesus answered them, `Do you see these buildings? I tell you the truth. Not one stone here will be left on top of another stone. They will all be thrown down!'

3 Jesus was sitting on the hill called the Mount of Olives. The disciples came to him alone. They said, `Tell us, when will this happen? What will be the sign to show you are coming and that it is the end of this world?'

4 Jesus answered them, `Take care. Do not let anyone fool you.

5 Many men will come in my name. They will say, "I am the Christ". They will fool many people.

6 You will hear about wars. You will hear that war is coming. But do not fear. These things must happen, but that is not yet the end.

7 One tribe will fight against another tribe. And one country will fight against another country. The people will have no food to eat. Many people will be sick. The earth will shake in many different places.

8 All these troubles are only the beginning of troubles that will come.

9 `Then people will trouble you and kill you. All nations will hate you because you are true to me.

10 Then many people will stop believing. They will give one another over to trouble. They will hate one another.

11 Many people will come and say they are prophets of God. But they will not be true. They will fool many people.

12 People will do more and more wrong things and many people will stop loving me.

13 But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end, that one will be saved.

14 This good news about the kingdom will be told in all the world. The people in all countries must know about it. And then the end will come.'

15 `Daniel the prophet said that people would put something very bad in the temple.' (Let the one who reads this understand it.)

16 `When that happens, the people in Judea must go quickly to the hills.

17 A person who is on the top of a house must not go down into the house to get things from the house.

18 A person who is working in the fields must not go back home to get his coat.

19 In those days it will be very hard for women who are to have a child. It will be very hard for mothers who have a baby.

20 Ask God that you may not have to go in the cold time of the year or on the Sabbath day.

21 The trouble then will be bigger than any other trouble since God made the world. And there never will be any trouble as big as that.

22 No person would be saved if the Lord did not cut the time of trouble shorter. He will cut it shorter for the sake of his chosen people.

23 `If anyone says to you then, "Look, here is the Christ!" or "There he is!" do not believe it.

24 People will come and say they are the Christ. People will come and say they are prophets. But they are not true. They will show big signs and do wonderful things to fool people. They will fool God's chosen people if they can.

25 Watch! I have told you these things before they happen.

26 So if people say to you, "He is in the wilderness," do not go there. If they say, "He is hiding somewhere," do not believe it.

27 When lightning shines in the east, it can be seen in the west. It will be like that when the Son of Man comes.

28 The big birds that eat meat will all go to the place where the dead body is.'

29 `Right after that time of trouble, the sun will be dark. The moon will not shine. The stars will fall from the sky. And the powers in the sky will be shaken.

30 Then people will see the sign of the Son of Man in the sky. Then all the people of the earth will cry. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds in the sky. He will have much power and will be very great.

31 He will send his angels to call with a loud trumpet or horn. They will gather his chosen people from everywhere all over the earth.'

32 `Learn a lesson from the fig tree. As soon as its branches begin to grow and the leaves come, then you know it will soon be the warm time of the year.

33 It is the same when you see all these things. You will know that the time is very near, right at the door.

34 I tell you the truth. The people who are living then, will not die before all these things happen.

35 The sky and the earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.'

36 `But no one knows the day and the hour when the Son of Man will come. Even the angels in heaven and the Son do not know. Only the Father knows.

37 When the Son of Man comes, it will be as it was in the time of Noah.

38 In the days before the water covered the earth, people ate and drank. They married and gave their daughters to be married. Then one day Noah went into his house built on a boat.

39 The people did not know until much water came and killed them all. When the Son of Man comes, it will be like that.

40 Two men will be working together in the field. One will be taken and the other will be left.

41 Two women will be making flour together. One woman will be taken away and one woman will be left.

42 So watch! You do not know what day your Lord will come.

43 And remember this. The owner of the house does not know at what time of the night a man will come to steal something. If he knew, he would watch and not let the man break into his house.

44 So, be ready! The Son of Man will come at a time when you are not looking for him.

45 `Who is like a wise servant who can be trusted? His master will put him in charge of his other servants. He gives them their food at the right time.

46 The servant who is doing this when his master comes, will be blessed.

47 I tell you the truth. His master will put him in charge of all that he has.

48 But if the servant is bad, he will say to himself, "My master will not come just now."

49 Then he will begin to beat the other servants. He will eat and drink with men who are drunk.

50 The master of that servant will come on a day the servant is not looking for him. He will not know the time he is coming home.

51 The master will punish him and lock him in with people who are not true. People there will cry and grind [make a noise with] their teeth.'

24  And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

2 And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

New International Version

The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times(A)

24 Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. 2 “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another;(B) every one will be thrown down.”

3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives,(C) the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming(D) and of the end of the age?”(E)

4 Jesus answered: “Watch out that no one deceives you.(F) 5 For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and will deceive many.(G) 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.(H) There will be famines(I) and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.

9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted(J) and put to death,(K) and you will be hated by all nations because of me.(L) 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets(M) will appear and deceive many people.(N) 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.(O) 14 And this gospel of the kingdom(P) will be preached in the whole world(Q) as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

15 “So when you see standing in the holy place(R) ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’[a](S) spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let no one on the housetop(T) go down to take anything out of the house. 18 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 19 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!(U) 20 Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.(V)

22 “If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect(W) those days will be shortened. 23 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it.(X) 24 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders(Y) to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time.

26 “So if anyone tells you, ‘There he is, out in the wilderness,’ do not go out; or, ‘Here he is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it. 27 For as lightning(Z) that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming(AA) of the Son of Man.(AB) 28 Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.(AC)

29 “Immediately after the distress of those days

“‘the sun will be darkened,
    and the moon will not give its light;
the stars will fall from the sky,
    and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’[b](AD)

30 “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth[c] will mourn(AE) when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven,(AF) with power and great glory.[d] 31 And he will send his angels(AG) with a loud trumpet call,(AH) and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

32 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it[e] is near, right at the door.(AI) 34 Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.(AJ) 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.(AK)

The Day and Hour Unknown(AL)(AM)

36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[f] but only the Father.(AN) 37 As it was in the days of Noah,(AO) so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage,(AP) up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.(AQ) 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.(AR) 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.(AS)

42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.(AT) 43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming,(AU) he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you also must be ready,(AV) because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant,(AW) whom the master has put in charge of the servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? 46 It will be good for that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.(AX) 47 Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.(AY) 48 But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself, ‘My master is staying away a long time,’ 49 and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.(AZ) 50 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he is not aware of. 51 He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.(BA)
