5. For many will come in my name saying, 'I am the Christ.' And they will lead many astray.
6. For you will hear of battles and rumors of battles. Take care not to be disturbed. For these things must be, but the end is not so soon.
7. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be pestilences, and famines, and earthquakes in places.
8. But all these things are just the beginning of the sorrows.
9. Then they will hand you over to tribulation, and they will kill you. And you will be hated by all nations for the sake of my name.
10. And then many will be led into sin, and will betray one another, and will have hatred for one another.
11. And many false prophets will arise, and they will lead many astray.
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.
