1Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple.

1As Jesus left the Temple and was walking away, his disciples came up to him to point out to him the Temple buildings.

2And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”

2But he told them, "You see all these things, don't you? I tell all of you with certainty, there isn't a single stone here that will be left standing on top of another. They will all be torn down."

3Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

3While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately and said, "Tell us, when will these things take place, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"

4And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you.

4Jesus answered them, "See to it that no one deceives you,

5For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.

5because many will come in my name and say, 'I'm the Messiah,' and they will deceive many people.

6And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

6You'll hear of wars and rumors of wars. See to it that you aren't alarmed. These things must take place, but the end hasn't come yet,

7For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.

7because nation will rise up in arms against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8All these are the beginning of sorrows.

8But all these things are only the beginning of the birth pains."

9“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake.

9"Then they'll hand you over to suffer and will kill you, and you'll be hated by all the nations because of my name.

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

10Then many people will fall away, will betray one another, and will hate one another.

11Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.

11Many false prophets will appear and deceive many people,

12And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.

12and because lawlessness will increase, the love of many people will grow cold.

13But he who endures to the end shall be saved.

13But the person who endures to the end will be saved.

14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.

14And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come."

15“Therefore when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (whoever reads, let him understand),

16“then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

16then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains.

17Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house.

17Anyone who's on the housetop must not come down to get what is in his house,

18And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.

18and anyone who's in the field must not turn back to get his coat.

19But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!

19"How terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or who are nursing babies in those days!

20Pray that it may not be in winter or on a Sabbath when you flee,

21For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.

21because at that time there will be great suffering, the kind that hasn't happened from the beginning of the world until now and certainly won't ever happen again.

22And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened.

22If those days hadn't been limited, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be limited.

23“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it.

23"At that time, if anyone says to you, 'Look! Here's the Messiah!' or 'There he is!', don't believe it,

24For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

24because false messiahs and false prophets will appear and display great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

25See, I have told you beforehand.

25Remember, I've told you this beforehand.

26“Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it.

26So if they say to you, 'Look! He's in the wilderness,' don't go out looking for him. And if they say, 'Look! He's in the storeroom,' don't believe it,

37But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

37because just as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be when the Son of Man comes.

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

38In those days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage right up to the day when Noah went into the ark.

39and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

39They were unaware of what was happening until the flood came and swept all of them away. That's how it will be when the Son of Man comes.

43But be sure of this: if the owner of the house had known when during the night the thief would be coming, he would have stayed awake and not allowed his house to be broken into.

44Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

44So you, too, must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you are not expecting him."
