1And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple. 2And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
3¶ And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? 4And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you. 5For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 6And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places. 8All these are the beginning of sorrows. 9Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. 10And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. 11And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. 12And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. 13But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. 14And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. 15When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) 16Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains: 17Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: 18Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. 19And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 20But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: 21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened. 23Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25Behold, I have told you before. 26Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
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: 30And 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. 31And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. 32Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: 33So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. 34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. 35Heaven 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. 37But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42¶ Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 43But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. 44Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. 45Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season? 46Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. 47Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. 48But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming; 49And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; 50The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of, 51And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
預言聖殿被毀
1耶穌離開聖殿時，門徒上前把宏偉的聖殿指給祂看。 2耶穌對他們說：「你們看見這殿宇了嗎？我實在告訴你們，將來它要被完全拆毀，在這裡找不到兩塊疊在一起的石頭。」
世界末日的預兆
3耶穌正坐在橄欖山上，門徒私下來問祂：「請告訴我們，這事什麼時候會發生？你再來和世界末日的時候會有什麼預兆？」
4耶穌回答說：「你們要小心，免得被人迷惑。 5因為將來會有許多人冒我的名而來，說『我是基督』，欺騙許多人。 6你們聽見戰爭爆發、戰訊頻傳時，不要驚慌，因為這些事必然發生，只是末日還沒有到。 7民族將與民族互鬥，國家將與國家相爭，各處將有饑荒和地震。 8這些只是災難24·8 「災難」希臘文是「生產之痛」。的開始。
9「那時，你們將遭人迫害、殺害，並因我的名而被萬民憎恨。 10那時，許多人會放棄信仰，互相出賣，彼此憎恨。 11許多假先知也會出現，迷惑許多人。 12由於罪惡氾濫，許多人的愛逐漸冷淡。 13但堅忍到底的必定得救。 14這天國的福音將傳遍天下，讓萬民都聽見，然後末日才會來臨。
15「當你們看見但以理先知所說的『那帶來毀滅的可憎之物』站立在聖地的時候（讀者須會意）， 16住在猶太地區的人要趕快逃到山上去， 17在屋頂上的人不要下來進屋收拾行李， 18在田間工作的人也不要回家取外衣。 19那時，孕婦和哺育嬰兒的母親們可就遭殃了！ 20你們要祈求上帝，不要讓你們在冬天或安息日逃難， 21因為那時世上將有空前絕後的大災難。 22如果不縮短災期，恐怕沒有人能活命。但為了選民的緣故，災期必被縮短。
23「那時，如果有人對你們說，『看啊！基督在這裡』，或說，『基督在那裡』，你們不要相信。 24因為假基督和假先知將出現，行很大的神蹟奇事來迷惑人，如果可能，甚至要迷惑上帝揀選的子民。 25你們要記住，我已經預先告訴你們了。
26「因此，如果有人對你們說，『看啊！基督在曠野』，你們不要出去；或者說，『看啊！基督在屋裡』，你們也不要相信。 27人子降臨時的情形就像閃電從東方發出一直照到西方。 28屍體在哪裡，禿鷹就會聚集在哪裡。
29「當災難的日子一過，
『太陽變黑，
月亮無光，
眾星隕落，
天體震動。』
30「那時，天上會出現人子降臨的預兆，地上的萬族都要哀哭，他們將看見人子帶著能力和極大的榮耀駕著天上的雲降臨。 31在響亮的號聲中，祂將差遣天使從四面八方、天涯海角招聚祂揀選的人。
無花果樹的比喻
32「你們可以從無花果樹學個道理。當無花果樹發芽長葉的時候，你們就知道夏天快來了。 33同樣，當你們看見這一切事發生時，就知道人子快來了，就在門口。 34我實在告訴你們，這個世代還沒有過去，這一切都要發生。 35天地都要過去，但我的話永遠長存。
警醒準備
36「但沒有人知道那日子和時辰何時來到，連天上的天使也不知道，人子24·36 「人子」希臘文是「子」。也不知道，只有天父知道。 37人子降臨時的情形就像挪亞的時代。 38洪水來臨之前，人們吃吃喝喝，男婚女嫁，一直到挪亞進方舟那天； 39他們懵然不知，直到洪水來把他們全沖走了。人子降臨時的情形也是這樣。 40那時，兩個人在田裡，一個將被接去，一個將被撇下； 41兩個婦人推磨，一個將被接去，一個將被撇下。 42所以，你們要警醒，因為你們不知道你們的主會在哪一天來。 43你們都知道，如果一家的主人知道賊會在半夜幾點來，就必警醒，不讓賊入屋偷竊。 44同樣，你們也要做好準備，因為在你們意想不到的時候，人子就來了。
兩種奴僕
45「誰是那個受主人委託管理家中大小僕役、按時分糧食給他們、又忠心又精明的奴僕呢？ 46主人回家時，看見他盡忠職守，他就有福了。 47我實在告訴你們，主人一定會把所有產業都交給他管理。 48但如果奴僕邪惡，以為主人不會那麼快回來， 49就毆打同伴，跟醉漢一起吃喝玩樂， 50主人會在他想不到的日子、不知道的時辰回來， 51嚴厲地懲罰24·51 「嚴厲地懲罰」或作「腰斬」。他，判他和偽君子同樣的罪。他必在那裡哀哭切齒。
