and shall deceive many. (12)And because iniquity shall
abound, the love of many will grow cool. (13)But he that endureth to
the end, that man will be saved. (14)And this gospel of the kingdom
shall be preached through the whole world for a testimony to all the
nations: and then shall come the final close. (15)When therefore ye see
the abomination of desolation, spoken of by the prophet Daniel, erected
in the holy place, (let him that readeth, mark this,) (16)then let such
as are in Judea flee into the mountains. (17)Let not him who is upon
the roof go down to take any thing out of his house. (18)And he that is
in the field, let him not turn back to take his garment. (19)But wo to
those who are with child, and have an infant at their breasts in those
days! (20)And pray that your flight be not in winter, nor on the
sabbath. (21)For then the tribulation will be great, such as never was
from the beginning of the world, and never more shall be. (22)And
except those days were shortened, there would be no flesh saved: but
for the elect's sake these days shall be shortened. (23)Then if any man

east, and flashes to the west; so shall be the coming of the Son of
man. (28)For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be
gathered together. (29)Then, 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 the sign of the Son of man appear
in the heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth lament
bitterly, and they shall see the Son of man coming on the clouds of
heaven with power and great glory. (31)And he shall send forth his
angels with a trumpet, and a great shout, and they shall gather
together his elect from the four winds, from the extremities of the
heavens to the extremities of the same.

tender, and the leaves shoot forth, ye know that summer is nigh:
