19. And woe to them that are with child, and to them that nurse infants in those days!
20. But pray ye that your flight may not be in the winter, neither on the sabbath:
21. For then shall be great tribulation, such as hath not been since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22. And except those days should be shortened, there would no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
23. Then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
24. For false Christs will arise, and false prophets, and will show great signs and wonders; so that, if it were possible, they would deceive the very elect.
25. Behold, I have told you before.
26. Wherefore, if they shall say to you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
27. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28. For wherever the carcass is, there will the eagles be collected.
29. Immediately after the tribulation of those days, shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30. And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31. And he will send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
32. Now learn a parable of the fig-tree; When its branch is yet tender and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
33. So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34. Verily I say to you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things shall be fulfilled.
35. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
36. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
37. But as the days of Noah were, so will also the coming of the Son of man be.
