1And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury. 2And he sawe also a certaine poore widowe which cast in thither two mites: 3And he sayd, Of a trueth I say vnto you, that this poore widowe hath cast in more then they all. 4For they all haue of their superfluitie cast into the offerings of God: but she of her penurie hath cast in all the liuing that she had. 5And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said, 6Are these ye things that ye looke vpon? the dayes will come wherein a stone shall not be left vpon a stone, that shall not be throwen downe. 7Then they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what signe shall there be when these things shall come to passe? 8And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. 9But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end [is] not by and by. 10Then said hee vnto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdome against kingdome, 11And great earthquakes shall be in diuers places, and hunger, and pestilence, and fearefull things, & great signes shall there be from heauen. 12But before all these, they shal lay their hands on you, and persecute you, deliuering you vp to the assemblies, and into prisons, and bring you before Kings and rulers for my Names sake. 13And it shall turn to you for a testimony. 14Lay it vp therefore in your heartes, that ye cast not before hand, what ye shall answere. 15For I will giue you a mouth and wisdome, where against all your aduersaries shall not be able to speake, nor resist. 16Yea, ye shalbe betrayed also of your parents, and of your brethren, and kinsmen, and friendes, and some of you shall they put to death. 17And ye shall bee hated of all men for my Names sake. 18Yet there shall not one heare of your heads perish. 19In your patience possess ye your souls. 20And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh. 21Then let them which are in Iudea, flee to the mountaines: and let them which are in the middes thereof, depart out: and let not them that are in the countrey, enter therein. 22For these be the dayes of vengeance, to fulfill all things that are written. 23But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people. 24And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled. 25And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring; 26Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken. 27And then shall they see the Sonne of man come in a cloude, with power and great glory. 28And when these things beginne to come to passe, then looke vp, and lift vp your heades: for your redemption draweth neere. 29And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees; 30When they nowe shoote foorth, ye seeing them, knowe of your owne selues, that sommer is then neere. 31So likewise yee, when yee see these thinges come to passe, knowe ye that the kingdome of God is neere. 32Verely I say vnto you, This age shall not passe, till all these things be done: 33Heauen and earth shall passe away, but my wordes shall not passe away. 34Take heede to your selues, lest at any time your hearts be oppressed with surfeting and drunkennesse, and cares of this life, and least that day come on you at vnwares. 35For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man. 37Nowe in the day time hee taught in the Temple, and at night hee went out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Oliues. 38And all the people came in the morning to him, to heare him in the Temple.
