Matthew 24:15-20

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

The Desolating Sacrilege

¹⁵ ‘So when you see the desolating sacrilege standing in the holy place, as was spoken of by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand), ¹⁶ then those in Judea must flee to the mountains; ¹⁷ someone on the housetop must not go down to take what is in the house; ¹⁸ someone in the field must not turn back to get a coat. ¹⁹ Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing infants in those days! ²⁰ Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a sabbath.
