King James VersionMark13

Mark

1 And as he went out of the tem­ple, one of his dis­ci­ples saith unto him, Mas­ter, see what man­ner of stones and what build­ings are here! 2 And Je­sus an­swer­ing said unto him, Seest thou these great build­ings? there shall not be left one stone upon an­oth­er, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the tem­ple, Pe­ter and James and John and An­drew asked him pri­vate­ly, 4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be ful­filled? 5 And Je­sus an­swer­ing them be­gan to say, Take heed lest any man de­ceive you: 6 For many shall come in my name, say­ing, I am Christ; and shall de­ceive many. 7 And when ye shall hear of wars and ru­mours of wars, be ye not trou­bled: for ­such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. 8 For na­tion shall rise against na­tion, and king­dom against king­dom: and there shall be earth­quakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and trou­bles: these are the be­gin­nings of sor­rows. 9 But take heed to your­selves: for they shall de­liv­er you up to coun­cils; and in the syn­a­gogues ye shall be beat­en: and ye shall be brought be­fore rulers and kings for my sake, for a tes­ti­mo­ny against them. 10 And the gospel must first be pub­lished among all na­tions. 11 But when they shall lead you, and de­liv­er you up, take no thought be­fore­hand what ye shall speak, nei­ther do ye pre­med­i­tate: but what­so­ev­er shall be giv­en you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. 12 Now the broth­er shall be­tray the broth­er to death, and the fa­ther the son; and chil­dren shall rise up against their par­ents, and shall cause them to be put to death. 13 And ye shall be hat­ed of all men for my name's sake: but he that shall en­dure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14 But when ye shall see the abom­i­na­tion of des­o­la­tion, spo­ken of by Daniel the prophet, stand­ing where it ought not, (let him that read­eth un­der­stand, ) then let them that be in Ju­daea flee to the moun­tains: 15 And let him that is on the house­top not go down into the house, nei­ther en­ter therein, to take any thing out of his house: 16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his gar­ment. 17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the win­ter. 19 For in those days shall be af­flic­tion, such as was not from the be­gin­ning of the cre­ation which God cre­at­ed unto this time, nei­ther shall be. 20 And ex­cept that the Lord had short­ened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath cho­sen, he hath short­ened the days. 21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; be­lieve him not: 22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and won­ders, to se­duce, if it were pos­si­ble, even the elect. 23 But take ye heed: be­hold, I have fore­told you all things. 24 But in those days, af­ter that tribu­la­tion, the sun shall be dark­ened, and the moon shall not give her light, 25 And the stars of heav­en shall fall, and the pow­ers that are in heav­en shall be shak­en. 26 And then shall they see the Son of man com­ing in the clouds with great pow­er and glo­ry. 27 And then shall he send his an­gels, and shall gath­er to­geth­er his elect from the four winds, from the ut­ter­most part of the earth to the ut­ter­most part of heav­en. 28 Now learn a para­ble of the fig tree; When her branch is yet ten­der, and put­teth forth leaves, ye know that sum­mer is near: 29 So ye in like man­ner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors. 30 Ver­i­ly I say unto you, that this gen­er­a­tion shall not pass, till all these things be done. 31 Heav­en and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the an­gels which are in heav­en, nei­ther the Son, but the Fa­ther. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34 ­For the Son of man is as a man tak­ing a far jour­ney, who left his house, and gave au­thor­i­ty to his ser­vants, and to ev­ery man his work, and com­mand­ed the porter to watch. 35 Watch ye there­fore: for ye know not when the mas­ter of the house cometh, at even, or at mid­night, or at the cock­crow­ing, or in the morn­ing: 36 Lest com­ing sud­den­ly he find you sleep­ing. 37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
