Marqos (Mark) 13

1And as He went out of the Set-apart Place, one of His taught ones said to Him, “Teacher, see what stones! And what buildings!”
2And יהושע answering, said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone shall be left upon another at all, which shall not be thrown down.”#See Mat. 24
3And as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the Set-apart Place, Kĕpha, and Ya‛aqoḇ, and Yoḥanan, and Andri asked Him separately,
4Say to us, when shall these events be? And what shall be the sign when all this is going to be accomplished?
5And יהושע began to say to them, “Take heed that no one leads you astray,
6for many shall come in My Name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and they shall lead many astray.
7“And when you hear of fightings and reports of fightings, do not be troubled – it has to take place, but the end is not yet.
8“For nation shall rise against nation, and reign against reign. And there shall be earthquakes in various places, and there shall be scarcities of food, and disturbances. These are the beginnings of birth-pains.
9“But take heed to yourselves, for they shall deliver you up to councils and to congregations. You shall be beaten, and you shall be brought before rulers and sovereigns for My sake, for a witness to them.
10“And the Good News has to be proclaimed first to all the nations.
11“And when they lead you away and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand what you are to say. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that, for it is not you who are speaking, but the Set-apart Spirit.
12“And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and a father his child. And children shall rise up against parents and shall put them to death.
13And you shall be hated by all because of My Name. But he who shall have endured to the end, he shall be saved.#See Mat. 10:22; Mat. 24:13
14And when you see the ‘abomination that lays waste,’#See Explanatory Notes "Abomination that lays waste" spoken of by Dani’ĕl the prophet, set up where it should not be” – he who reads, let him understand – “then let those who are in Yehuḏah flee to the mountains.
15“And he who is on the house-top, let him not go down into the house, nor come in to take whatever out of his house.
16“And he who is in the field, let him not go back to get his cloak.
17“And woe to those who are pregnant and to those nursing children in those days!
18“And pray that your flight does not take place in winter.
19“For in those days there shall be distress, such as has not been from the beginning of creation which Elohim created until this time, nor ever shall be.
20“And if the Master had not shortened those days, no flesh would have been saved; but because of the chosen ones, whom He chose, He shortened the days.
21“And if anyone then says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ do not believe it.
22“For false messiahs and false prophets shall rise and show signs and wonders to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
23“And you, take heed. See, I have forewarned you of it all.
24But in those days, after that distress, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give its light,
25and the stars of heaven shall fall,# Isa. 13:10 and the powers in the heavens shall be shaken.# Isa. 34:4#See also Eze. 32:7; Joel 2:10; Joel 2:31; Joel 3:15; Hag. 2:6; Hag. 2:21
26“And then they shall see the Son of Aḏam coming in the clouds# Dan. 7:13 with much power and esteem.
27And then He shall send His messengers, and assemble His chosen ones from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven.# Deu. 30:4; Zech. 2:6
28“And learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near.
29“So you also, when you see these taking place, know that it is near, at the door.
30“Truly, I say to you, this generation shall by no means pass away till all this takes place.
31“The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but My words shall by no means pass away.
32“But concerning that day and the hour no one knows, not even the messengers in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
33Take heed, watch and pray, for you do not know when the time is - ”
34as a man going abroad, having left his house and given authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.
35“Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming – in the evening or at midnight, or at the crowing of the cock, or in the morning,
36lest, coming suddenly, he should find you sleeping.
37“And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!”

Mark 13

The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times
1As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!”
2 “Do you see all these great buildings?” replied Jesus. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”
3As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John and Andrew asked him privately, 4“Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?”
5Jesus said to them: “Watch out that no one deceives you. 6Many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and will deceive many. 7When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 8Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.
9 “You must be on your guard. You will be handed over to the local councils and flogged in the synagogues. On account of me you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them. 10And the gospel must first be preached to all nations. 11Whenever you are arrested and brought to trial, do not worry beforehand about what to say. Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.
12 “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death. 13Everyone will hate you because of me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.
14 “When you see ‘the abomination that causes desolation’#13:14 Daniel 9:27; 11:31; 12:11 standing where it#13:14 Or he does not belong — let the reader understand — then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 15Let no one on the housetop go down or enter the house to take anything out. 16Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 17How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 18Pray that this will not take place in winter, 19because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world, until now — and never to be equaled again.
20 “If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them. 21At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it. 22For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and perform signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 23So be on your guard; I have told you everything ahead of time.
24 “But in those days, following that distress,
“ ‘the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light;
25 the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’#13:25 Isaiah 13:10; 34:4
26 “At that time people will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory. 27And he will send his angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens.
28 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 29Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that it#13:29 Or he is near, right at the door. 30Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 31Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
The Day and Hour Unknown
32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33Be on guard! Be alert#13:33 Some manuscripts alert and pray! You do not know when that time will come. 34Itʼs like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
35 “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back — whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’ ”
