St Matthew 24:14-24 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

14. And this gospel of the kingdom, shall be preached in the whole world, for a testimony to all nations, and then shall the consummation come.

15. When therefore you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place: he that readeth let him understand.

16. Then they that are in Judea, let them flee to the mountains:

17. And he that is on the housetop, let him not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18. And he that is in the field, let him not go back to take his coat.

19. And woe to them that are with child, and that give suck in those days.

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

21. For there shall be then great tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, neither shall be.

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

23. Then if any man shall say to you: Lo here is Christ, or there, do not believe him.

24. For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show great signs and wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect.
