[15] When ye therefore the abomination of desolation, by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) [16] Then let them which be in Judaea flee the mountains: [17] Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take 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 flight be in the winter, neither the sabbath day: [21] For then great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, shall be. [22] And 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 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, [26] Wherefore if they shall say Behold, in the desert; 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 also the coming of the Son of man [28] wheresoever the carcase there the eagles be gathered together. [29] Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon 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 all the tribes of the earth mourn, and 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 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 when all know that near, even at the doors. [34] Verily I say This generation pass, till all be fulfilled. [35] Heaven and earth shall pass away, but words pass away.
