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

³ Now 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?”

⁴ And Jesus answered and said to them: ^(D)“Take heed that no one deceives you. ⁵ For ^(E)many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ ^(F)and will deceive many. ⁶ And 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. ⁷ For ^(H)nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be ^(I)famines, ^[b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. ⁸ All these are the beginning of sorrows.
