New Testament

Matthew 24:12-22 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

12. And because iniquity has abounded, the charity of many will grow cold.

13. But whoever will have persevered until the end, the same shall be saved.

14. And this Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached throughout the entire world, as a testimony to all nations. And then the consummation will occur.

15. Therefore, when you will have seen the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place, may he who reads understand,

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

17. And whoever is on the roof, let him not descend to take anything from his house.

18. And whoever is in the field, let him not turn back to take his tunic.

19. So then, woe to those who are pregnant or nursing in those days.

20. But pray that your flight may not be in winter, or on the Sabbath.

21. For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until the present, and such as will not be.

22. And unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days shall be shortened.
