¹“Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom.

KJVThen^G5119 shall the kingdom^G932 of heaven^G3772 be likened^G3666^(G5701) unto ten^G1176 virgins^G3933, which^G3748 took^G2983^(G5631) their^G846 lamps^G2985, and went forth^G1831^(G5627) to meet^G529^G1519 the bridegroom^G3566.

² Five of them were foolish, and five were wise.

KJVAnd^G1161 five^G4002 of^G1537 them^G846 were^G2258^(G5713) wise^G5429, and^G2532 five^G4002 were foolish^G3474.

³ Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them,

KJVThey^G3748 that were foolish^G3474 took^G2983^(G5631) their^G846^G1438 lamps^G2985, and took^G2983^(G5627) no^G3756 oil^G1637 with^G3326 them^G1438:

⁴ but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

KJVBut^G1161 the wise^G5429 took^G2983^(G5627) oil^G1637 in^G1722 their^G846 vessels^G30 with^G3326 their^G846 lamps^G2985.

⁵ Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept.

KJVWhile^G1161 the bridegroom^G3566 tarried^G5549^(G5723), they all^G3956 slumbered^G3573^(G5656) and^G2532 slept^G2518^(G5707).

⁶ But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!’

KJVAnd^G1161 at midnight^G3319^G3571 there was a cry^G2906 made^G1096^(G5754), Behold^G2400^(G5628), the bridegroom^G3566 cometh^G2064^(G5736); go ye out^G1831^(G5737) to^G1519 meet^G529 him^G846.

⁷ Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

KJVThen^G5119 all^G3956 those^G1565 virgins^G3933 arose^G1453^(G5681), and^G2532 trimmed^G2885^(G5656) their^G846 lamps^G2985.

⁸ The foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’

KJVAnd^G1161 the foolish^G3474 said^G2036^(G5627) unto the wise^G5429, Give^G1325^(G5628) us^G2254 of^G1537 your^G5216 oil^G1637; for^G3754 our^G2257 lamps^G2985 are gone out^G4570^(G5743).

⁹ But the wise answered, saying, ‘What if there isn’t enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’

KJVBut^G1161 the wise^G5429 answered^G611^(G5662), saying^G3004^(G5723), Not so; lest^G3379 there be^G714 not^G3756 enough^G714^(G5661) for us^G2254 and^G2532 you^G5213: but^G1161 go ye^G4198^(G5737) rather^G3123 to them^G4314 that sell^G4453^(G5723), and^G2532 buy^G59^(G5657) for yourselves^G1438.

¹⁰ While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut.

KJVAnd^G1161 while they^G846 went^G565^(G5740) to buy^G59^(G5658), the bridegroom^G3566 came^G2064^(G5627); and^G2532 they that were ready^G2092 went in^G1525^(G5627) with^G3326 him^G846 to^G1519 the marriage^G1062: and^G2532 the door^G2374 was shut^G2808^(G5681).

¹¹ Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us.’

KJVAfterward^G1161^G5305 came^G2064^(G5736) also^G2532 the other^G3062 virgins^G3933, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, Lord^G2962, open^G455^(G5657) to us^G2254.

¹² But he answered, ‘Most certainly I tell you, I don’t know you.’

KJVBut^G1161 he answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627), Verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, I know^G1492^(G5758) you^G5209 not^G3756.

¹³ Watch therefore, for you don’t know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.

KJVWatch^G1127^(G5720) therefore^G3767, for^G3754 ye know^G1492^(G5758) neither^G3756 the day^G2250 nor^G3761 the hour^G5610 wherein^G1722^G3739 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 cometh^G2064^(G5736).

¹⁴ “For it is like a man going into another country, who called his own servants and entrusted his goods to them.

KJVFor^G1063 the kingdom of heaven is as^G5618 a man^G444 travelling into a far country^G589^(G5723), who called^G2564^(G5656) his own^G2398 servants^G1401, and^G2532 delivered^G3860^(G5656) unto them^G846 his^G846 goods^G5224^(G5723).

¹⁵ To one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his own ability. Then he went on his journey.

KJVAnd^G2532 unto one^G3739^G3303 he gave^G1325^(G5656) five^G4002 talents^G5007,^G1161 to another^G3739 two^G1417, and^G1161 to another^G3739 one^G1520; to every man^G1538 according^G2596 to his several^G2398 ability^G1411; and^G2532 straightway^G2112 took his journey^G589^(G5656).

¹⁶ Immediately he who received the five talents went and traded with them, and made another five talents.

KJVThen^G1161 he that had received^G2983^(G5631) the five^G4002 talents^G5007 went^G4198^(G5679) and traded^G2038^(G5662) with^G1722 the same^G846, and^G2532 made^G4160^(G5656) them other^G243 five^G4002 talents^G5007.

¹⁷ In the same way, he also who got the two gained another two.

KJVAnd^G2532 likewise^G5615 he that had received^G3588 two^G1417, he^G846 also^G2532 gained^G2770^(G5656) other^G243 two^G1417.

¹⁸ But he who received the one talent went away and dug in the earth and hid his lord’s money.

KJVBut^G1161 he that had received^G2983^(G5631) one^G1520 went^G565^(G5631) and digged^G3736^(G5656) in^G1722 the earth^G1093, and^G2532 hid^G613^(G5656) his^G846 lord's^G2962 money^G694.

¹⁹ “Now after a long time the lord of those servants came, and settled accounts with them.

KJVAfter^G1161^G3326 a long^G4183 time^G5550 the lord^G2962 of those^G1565 servants^G1401 cometh^G2064^(G5736), and^G2532 reckoneth^G4868^(G5719)^G3056 with^G3326 them^G846.

²⁰ He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, ‘Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents in addition to them.’

KJVAnd so^G2532 he that had received^G2983^(G5631) five^G4002 talents^G5007 came^G4334^(G5631) and brought^G4374^(G5656) other^G243 five^G4002 talents^G5007, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, thou deliveredst^G3860^(G5656) unto me^G3427 five^G4002 talents^G5007: behold^G2396, I have gained^G2770^(G5656) beside^G1909 them^G846 five^G4002 talents^G5007 more^G243.

²¹ “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

KJV^G1161 His^G846 lord^G2962 said^G5346^(G5713) unto him^G846, Well done^G2095, thou good^G18 and^G2532 faithful^G4103 servant^G1401: thou hast been^G2258^(G5713) faithful^G4103 over^G1909 a few things^G3641, I will make^G2525 thee^G4571 ruler^G2525^(G5692) over^G1909 many things^G4183: enter thou^G1525^(G5628) into^G1519 the joy^G5479 of thy^G4675 lord^G2962.

²² “He also who got the two talents came and said, ‘Lord, you delivered to me two talents. Behold, I have gained another two talents in addition to them.’

KJV^G1161 He also^G2532 that had received^G2983^(G5631) two^G1417 talents^G5007 came^G4334^(G5631) and said^G2036^(G5627), Lord^G2962, thou deliveredst^G3860^(G5656) unto me^G3427 two^G1417 talents^G5007: behold^G2396, I have gained^G2770^(G5656) two^G1417 other^G243 talents^G5007 beside^G1909 them^G846.

²³ “His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things. I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

KJVHis^G846 lord^G2962 said^G5346^(G5713) unto him^G846, Well done^G2095, good^G18 and^G2532 faithful^G4103 servant^G1401; thou hast been^G2258^(G5713) faithful^G4103 over^G1909 a few things^G3641, I will make^G2525 thee^G4571 ruler^G2525^(G5692) over^G1909 many things^G4183: enter thou^G1525^(G5628) into^G1519 the joy^G5479 of thy^G4675 lord^G2962.

²⁴ “He also who had received the one talent came and said, ‘Lord, I knew you that you are a hard man, reaping where you didn’t sow, and gathering where you didn’t scatter.

KJVThen^G1161^G2532 he which had received^G2983^(G5761) the one^G1520 talent^G5007 came^G4334^(G5631) and said^G2036^(G5627), Lord^G2962, I knew^G1097^(G5627) thee^G4571 that^G3754 thou art^G1488^(G5748) an hard^G4642 man^G444, reaping^G2325^(G5723) where^G3699 thou hast^G4687 not^G3756 sown^G4687^(G5656), and^G2532 gathering^G4863^(G5723) where^G3606 thou hast^G1287 not^G3756 strawed^G1287^(G5656):

²⁵ I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the earth. Behold, you have what is yours.’

KJVAnd^G2532 I was afraid^G5399^(G5679), and went^G565^(G5631) and hid^G2928^(G5656) thy^G4675 talent^G5007 in^G1722 the earth^G1093: lo^G2396, there thou hast^G2192^(G5719) that is thine^G4674.

²⁶ “But his lord answered him, ‘You wicked and slothful servant. You knew that I reap where I didn’t sow, and gather where I didn’t scatter.

KJV^G1161 His^G846 lord^G2962 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Thou wicked^G4190 and^G2532 slothful^G3636 servant^G1401, thou knewest^G1492^(G5715) that^G3754 I reap^G2325^(G5719) where^G3699 I sowed^G4687^(G5656) not^G3756, and^G2532 gather^G4863^(G5719) where^G3606 I have^G1287 not^G3756 strawed^G1287^(G5656):

²⁷ You ought therefore to have deposited my money with the bankers, and at my coming I should have received back my own with interest.

KJVThou^G4571 oughtest^G1163^(G5713) therefore^G3767 to have put^G906^(G5629) my^G3450 money^G694 to the exchangers^G5133, and^G2532 then at my coming^G2064^(G5631) I^G1473 should^G302 have received^G2865^(G5668) mine own^G1699 with^G4862 usury^G5110.

²⁸ Take away therefore the talent from him and give it to him who has the ten talents.

KJVTake^G142^(G5657) therefore^G3767 the talent^G5007 from^G575 him^G846, and^G2532 give^G1325^(G5628) it unto him which hath^G2192^(G5723) ten^G1176 talents^G5007.

²⁹ For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have abundance, but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away.

KJVFor^G1063 unto every one^G3956 that hath^G2192^(G5723) shall be given^G1325^(G5701), and^G2532 he shall have abundance^G4052^(G5701): but^G1161 from^G575 him^G846 that hath^G2192^(G5723) not^G3361 shall be taken away^G142^(G5701)^G575 even^G2532 that which^G3739 he hath^G2192^(G5719).

³⁰ Throw out the unprofitable servant into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

KJVAnd^G2532 cast ye^G1544^(G5720) the unprofitable^G888 servant^G1401 into^G1519 outer^G1857 darkness^G4655: there^G1563 shall be^G2071^(G5704) weeping^G2805 and^G2532 gnashing^G1030 of teeth^G3599.

³¹ “But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.

KJVWhen^G1161^G3752 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 shall come^G2064^(G5632) in^G1722 his^G846 glory^G1391, and^G2532 all^G3956 the holy^G40 angels^G32 with^G3326 him^G846, then^G5119 shall he sit^G2523^(G5692) upon^G1909 the throne^G2362 of his^G846 glory^G1391:

³² Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.

KJVAnd^G2532 before^G1715 him^G846 shall be gathered^G4863^(G5701) all^G3956 nations^G1484: and^G2532 he shall separate^G873^(G5692) them^G846 one^G240 from^G575 another^G240, as^G5618 a shepherd^G4166 divideth^G873^(G5719) his sheep^G4263 from^G575 the goats^G2056:

³³ He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.

KJVAnd^G2532 he shall set^G2476^(G5692)^G3303 the sheep^G4263 on^G1537 his^G846 right hand^G1188, but^G1161 the goats^G2055 on^G1537 the left^G2176.

³⁴ Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;

KJVThen^G5119 shall the King^G935 say^G2046^(G5692) unto them on^G1537 his^G846 right hand^G1188, Come^G1205^(G5773), ye blessed^G2127^(G5772) of my^G3450 Father^G3962, inherit^G2816^(G5657) the kingdom^G932 prepared^G2090^(G5772) for you^G5213 from^G575 the foundation^G2602 of the world^G2889:

³⁵ for I was hungry and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty and you gave me drink. I was a stranger and you took me in.

KJVFor^G1063 I was an hungred^G3983^(G5656), and^G2532 ye gave^G1325^(G5656) me^G3427 meat^G5315^(G5629): I was thirsty^G1372^(G5656), and^G2532 ye gave^G4222 me^G3165 drink^G4222^(G5656): I was^G2252^(G5713) a stranger^G3581, and^G2532 ye took^G4863 me^G3165 in^G4863^(G5627):

³⁶ I was naked and you clothed me. I was sick and you visited me. I was in prison and you came to me.’

KJVNaked^G1131, and^G2532 ye clothed^G4016^(G5627) me^G3165: I was sick^G770^(G5656), and^G2532 ye visited^G1980^(G5662) me^G3165: I was^G2252^(G5713) in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 ye came^G2064^(G5627) unto^G4314 me^G3165.

³⁷ “Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you a drink?

KJVThen^G5119 shall the righteous^G1342 answer^G611^(G5700) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, when^G4219 saw we^G1492^(G5627) thee^G4571 an hungred^G3983^(G5723), and^G2532 fed^G5142^(G5656) thee? or^G2228 thirsty^G1372^(G5723), and^G2532 gave thee drink^G4222^(G5656)?

³⁸ When did we see you as a stranger and take you in, or naked and clothe you?

KJV^G1161 When^G4219 saw we^G1492^(G5627) thee^G4571 a stranger^G3581, and^G2532 took thee in^G4863^(G5627)? or^G2228 naked^G1131, and^G2532 clothed^G4016^(G5627) thee?

³⁹ When did we see you sick or in prison and come to you?’

KJV^G1161 Or when^G4219 saw we^G1492^(G5627) thee^G4571 sick^G772, or^G2228 in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 came^G2064^(G5627) unto^G4314 thee^G4571?

⁴⁰ “The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’

KJVAnd^G2532 the King^G935 shall answer^G611^(G5679) and say^G2046^(G5692) unto them^G846, Verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Inasmuch^G1909 as^G3745 ye have done^G4160^(G5656) it unto one^G1520 of the least^G1646 of these^G5130 my^G3450 brethren^G80, ye have done^G4160^(G5656) it unto me^G1698.

⁴¹ Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels;

KJVThen^G5119 shall he say^G2046^(G5692) also^G2532 unto them on^G1537 the left hand^G2176, Depart^G4198^(G5737) from^G575 me^G1700, ye cursed^G2672^(G5772), into^G1519 everlasting^G166 fire^G4442, prepared^G2090^(G5772) for the devil^G1228 and^G2532 his^G846 angels^G32:

⁴² for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink;

KJVFor^G1063 I was an hungred^G3983^(G5656), and^G2532 ye gave^G1325^(G5656) me^G3427 no^G3756 meat^G5315^(G5629): I was thirsty^G1372^(G5656), and^G2532 ye gave^G4222 me^G3165 no^G3756 drink^G4222^(G5656):

⁴³ I was a stranger, and you didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’

KJVI was^G2252^(G5713) a stranger^G3581, and^G2532 ye took^G4863 me^G3165 not^G3756 in^G4863^(G5627): naked^G1131, and^G2532 ye clothed^G4016^(G5627) me^G3165 not^G3756: sick^G772, and^G2532 in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 ye visited^G1980^(G5662) me^G3165 not^G3756.

⁴⁴ “Then they will also answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn’t help you?’

KJVThen^G5119 shall they^G846 also^G2532 answer^G611^(G5700) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Lord^G2962, when^G4219 saw we^G1492^(G5627) thee^G4571 an hungred^G3983^(G5723), or^G2228 athirst^G1372^(G5723), or^G2228 a stranger^G3581, or^G2228 naked^G1131, or^G2228 sick^G772, or^G2228 in^G1722 prison^G5438, and^G2532 did^G1247 not^G3756 minister^G1247^(G5656) unto thee^G4671?

⁴⁵ “Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t do it to me.’

KJVThen^G5119 shall he answer^G611^(G5700) them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, Inasmuch^G1909 as^G3745 ye did^G4160^(G5656) it not^G3756 to one^G1520 of the least^G1646 of these^G5130, ye did^G4160^(G5656) it not^G3761 to me^G1698.

⁴⁶ These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

KJVAnd^G2532 these^G3778 shall go away^G565^(G5695) into^G1519 everlasting^G166 punishment^G2851: but^G1161 the righteous^G1342 into^G1519 life^G2222 eternal^G166.

WEB·Matthew 24

¹Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 went out^G1831^(G5631), and departed^G4198^(G5711) from^G575 the temple^G2411: and^G2532 his^G846 disciples^G3101 came^G4334^(G5656) to him for to shew^G1925^(G5658) him^G846 the buildings^G3619 of the temple^G2411.

² But he answered them, “You see all of these things, don’t you? Most certainly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down.”

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, See ye^G991^(G5719) not^G3756 all^G3956 these things^G5023? verily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, There shall^G863 not^G3364 be left^G863^(G5686) here^G5602 one stone^G3037 upon^G1909 another^G3037, that^G3739 shall^G2647 not^G3364 be thrown down^G2647^(G5701).

³ As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?”

KJVAnd^G1161 as he^G846 sat^G2521^(G5740) upon^G1909 the mount^G3735 of Olives^G1636, the disciples^G3101 came^G4334^(G5656) unto him^G846 privately^G2596^G2398, saying^G3004^(G5723), Tell^G2036^(G5628) us^G2254, when^G4219 shall^G2071 these things^G5023 be^G2071^(G5704)? and^G2532 what^G5101 shall be the sign^G4592 of thy^G4674 coming^G3952, and^G2532 of the end^G4930 of the world^G165?

⁴ Jesus answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.

KJVAnd^G2532 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Take heed^G991^(G5720) that no^G3361 man^G5100 deceive^G4105^(G5661) you^G5209.

⁵ For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.

KJVFor^G1063 many^G4183 shall come^G2064^(G5695) in^G1909 my^G3450 name^G3686, saying^G3004^(G5723), I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) Christ^G5547; and^G2532 shall deceive^G4105^(G5692) many^G4183.

⁶ You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.

KJVAnd^G1161 ye shall^G3195^(G5692) hear^G191^(G5721) of wars^G4171 and^G2532 rumours^G189 of wars^G4171: see^G3708^(G5720) that ye be^G2360 not^G3361 troubled^G2360^(G5744): for^G1063 all^G3956 these things must^G1163^(G5748) come to pass^G1096^(G5635), but^G235 the end^G5056 is^G2076^(G5748) not yet^G3768.

⁷ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.

KJVFor^G1063 nation^G1484 shall rise^G1453^(G5701) against^G1909 nation^G1484, and^G2532 kingdom^G932 against^G1909 kingdom^G932: and^G2532 there shall be^G2071^(G5704) famines^G3042, and^G2532 pestilences^G3061, and^G2532 earthquakes^G4578, in divers^G2596 places^G5117.

⁸ But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.

KJVAll^G1161^G3956 these^G5023 are the beginning^G746 of sorrows^G5604.

⁹ “Then they will deliver you up to oppression and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name’s sake.

KJVThen^G5119 shall they deliver^G3860 you^G5209 up^G3860^(G5692) to^G1519 be afflicted^G2347, and^G2532 shall kill^G615^(G5692) you^G5209: and^G2532 ye shall be^G2071^(G5704) hated^G3404^(G5746) of^G5259 all^G3956 nations^G1484 for^G1223 my^G3450 name's sake^G3686.

¹⁰ Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.

KJVAnd^G2532 then^G5119 shall many^G4183 be offended^G4624^(G5701), and^G2532 shall betray^G3860^(G5692) one another^G240, and^G2532 shall hate^G3404^(G5692) one another^G240.

¹¹ Many false prophets will arise and will lead many astray.

KJVAnd^G2532 many^G4183 false prophets^G5578 shall rise^G1453^(G5701), and^G2532 shall deceive^G4105^(G5692) many^G4183.

¹² Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.

KJVAnd^G2532 because^G1223 iniquity^G458 shall abound^G4129^(G5683), the love^G26 of many^G4183 shall wax cold^G5594^(G5691).

¹³ But he who endures to the end will be saved.

KJVBut^G1161 he that shall endure^G5278^(G5660) unto^G1519 the end^G5056, the same^G3778 shall be saved^G4982^(G5701).

¹⁴ This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

KJVAnd^G2532 this^G5124 gospel^G2098 of the kingdom^G932 shall be preached^G2784^(G5701) in^G1722 all^G3650 the world^G3625 for^G1519 a witness^G3142 unto all^G3956 nations^G1484; and^G2532 then^G5119 shall the end^G5056 come^G2240^(G5692).

¹⁵ “When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),

KJVWhen^G3752 ye therefore^G3767 shall see^G1492^(G5632) the abomination^G946 of desolation^G2050, spoken of^G4483^(G5685) by^G1223 Daniel^G1158 the prophet^G4396, stand^G2476^(G5756)^(G5625)^G2476^(G5761) in^G1722 the holy^G40 place^G5117,(whoso readeth^G314^(G5723), let him understand^G3539^(G5720):)

¹⁶ then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

KJVThen^G5119 let them which be in^G1722 Judaea^G2449 flee^G5343^(G5720) into^G1909 the mountains^G3735:

¹⁷ Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out the things that are in his house.

KJVLet him which is on^G1909 the housetop^G1430 not^G3361 come down^G2597^(G5720) to take^G142^(G5658) any thing^G5100 out of^G1537 his^G846 house^G3614:

¹⁸ Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.

KJV^G2532 Neither^G3361 let him which is in^G1722 the field^G68 return^G1994^(G5657) back^G3694 to take^G142^(G5658) his^G846 clothes^G2440.

¹⁹ But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!

KJVAnd^G1161 woe^G3759 unto them that are^G2192^(G5723) with^G1722 child^G1064, and^G2532 to them that give suck^G2337^(G5723) in^G1722 those^G1565 days^G2250!

²⁰ Pray that your flight will not be in the winter nor on a Sabbath,

KJVBut^G1161 pray ye^G4336^(G5737) that^G3363 your^G5216 flight^G5437 be^G1096^(G5638) not^G3363 in the winter^G5494, neither^G3366 on^G1722 the sabbath day^G4521:

²¹ for then there will be great suffering, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.

KJVFor^G1063 then^G5119 shall be^G2071^(G5704) great^G3173 tribulation^G2347, such as^G3634 was^G1096^(G5754) not^G3756 since^G575 the beginning^G746 of the world^G2889 to this^G2193 time^G3568, no^G3761, nor ever^G3364 shall be^G1096^(G5638).

²² Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.

KJVAnd^G2532 except^G1508 those^G1565 days^G2250 should be shortened^G2856^(G5681), there^G3756 should^G302 no^G3956 flesh^G4561 be saved^G4982^(G5681): but^G1161 for^G1223 the elect's sake^G1588 those^G1565 days^G2250 shall be shortened^G2856^(G5701).

²³ “Then if any man tells you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There!’ don’t believe it.

KJVThen^G5119 if^G1437 any man^G5100 shall say^G2036^(G5632) unto you^G5213, Lo^G2400^(G5628), here^G5602 is Christ^G5547, or^G2228 there^G5602; believe^G4100^(G5661) it not^G3361.

²⁴ For false christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.

KJVFor^G1063 there shall arise^G1453^(G5701) false Christs^G5580, and^G2532 false prophets^G5578, and^G2532 shall shew^G1325^(G5692) great^G3173 signs^G4592 and^G2532 wonders^G5059; insomuch that^G5620, if^G1487 it were possible^G1415, they shall deceive^G4105^(G5658) the very^G2532 elect^G1588.

²⁵ “Behold, I have told you beforehand.

KJVBehold^G2400^(G5628), I have told^G4280 you^G5213 before^G4280^(G5758).

²⁶ “If therefore they tell you, ‘Behold, he is in the wilderness,’ don’t go out; or ‘Behold, he is in the inner rooms,’ don’t believe it.

KJVWherefore^G3767 if^G1437 they shall say^G2036^(G5632) unto you^G5213, Behold^G2400^(G5628), he is^G2076^(G5748) in^G1722 the desert^G2048; go^G1831 not^G3361 forth^G1831^(G5632): behold^G2400^(G5628), he is in^G1722 the secret chambers^G5009; believe^G4100^(G5661) it not^G3361.

²⁷ For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.

KJVFor^G1063 as^G5618 the lightning^G796 cometh^G1831^(G5736) out of^G575 the east^G395, and^G2532 shineth^G5316^(G5727) even unto^G2193 the west^G1424; so^G3779 shall^G2071 also^G2532 the coming^G3952 of the Son^G5207 of man^G444 be^G2071^(G5704).

²⁸ For wherever the carcass is, that is where the vultures gather together.

KJVFor^G1063 wheresoever^G1437^G3699 the carcase^G4430 is^G5600^(G5753), there^G1563 will^G4863 the eagles^G105 be gathered together^G4863^(G5701).

²⁹ “But immediately after the suffering of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;

KJVImmediately^G1161^G2112 after^G3326 the tribulation^G2347 of those^G1565 days^G2250 shall the sun^G2246 be darkened^G4654^(G5701), and^G2532 the moon^G4582 shall^G1325 not^G3756 give^G1325^(G5692) her^G846 light^G5338, and^G2532 the stars^G792 shall fall^G4098^(G5699) from^G575 heaven^G3772, and^G2532 the powers^G1411 of the heavens^G3772 shall be shaken^G4531^(G5701):

³⁰ and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.

KJVAnd^G2532 then^G5119 shall appear^G5316^(G5691) the sign^G4592 of the Son^G5207 of man^G444 in^G1722 heaven^G3772: and^G2532 then^G5119 shall^G2875 all^G3956 the tribes^G5443 of the earth^G1093 mourn^G2875^(G5695), and^G2532 they shall see^G3700^(G5695) the Son^G5207 of man^G444 coming^G2064^(G5740) in^G1909 the clouds^G3507 of heaven^G3772 with^G3326 power^G1411 and^G2532 great^G4183 glory^G1391.

³¹ He will send out his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

KJVAnd^G2532 he shall send^G649^(G5692) his^G846 angels^G32 with^G3326 a great^G3173 sound^G5456 of a trumpet^G4536, and^G2532 they shall gather together^G1996^(G5692) his^G846 elect^G1588 from^G1537 the four^G5064 winds^G417, from^G575 one end^G206 of heaven^G3772 to^G2193 the other^G206^G846.

³² “Now from the fig tree learn this parable: When its branch has now become tender and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near.

KJVNow^G1161 learn^G3129^(G5628) a parable^G3850 of^G575 the fig tree^G4808; When^G3752 his^G846 branch^G2798 is^G1096^(G5638) yet^G2235 tender^G527, and^G2532 putteth forth^G1631^(G5725) leaves^G5444, ye know^G1097^(G5719) that^G3754 summer^G2330 is nigh^G1451:

³³ Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that he is near, even at the doors.

KJVSo^G3779 likewise^G2532 ye^G5210, when^G3752 ye shall see^G1492^(G5632) all^G3956 these things^G5023, know^G1097^(G5719) that^G3754 it is^G2076^(G5748) near^G1451, even at^G1909 the doors^G2374.

³⁴ Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things are accomplished.

KJVVerily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, This^G3778 generation^G1074 shall not^G3364 pass^G3928^(G5632), till^G302^G2193 all^G3956 these things^G5023 be fulfilled^G1096^(G5638).

³⁵ Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

KJVHeaven^G3772 and^G2532 earth^G1093 shall pass away^G3928^(G5695), but^G1161 my^G3450 words^G3056 shall^G3928 not^G3364 pass away^G3928^(G5632).

³⁶ “But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

KJVBut^G1161 of^G4012 that^G1565 day^G2250 and^G2532 hour^G5610 knoweth^G1492^(G5758) no^G3762 man, no, not^G3761 the angels^G32 of heaven^G3772, but^G1508 my^G3450 Father^G3962 only^G3441.

³⁷ As the days of Noah were, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.

KJVBut^G1161 as^G5618 the days^G2250 of Noe^G3575 were, so^G3779 shall^G2071 also^G2532 the coming^G3952 of the Son^G5207 of man^G444 be^G2071^(G5704).

³⁸ For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ship,

KJVFor^G1063 as^G5618 in^G1722 the days^G2250 that were^G2258^(G5713) before^G4253 the flood^G2627 they were eating^G5176^(G5723) and^G2532 drinking^G4095^(G5723), marrying^G1060^(G5723) and^G2532 giving in marriage^G1547^(G5723), until^G891 the day^G2250 that^G3739 Noe^G3575 entered^G1525^(G5627) into^G1519 the ark^G2787,

³⁹ and they didn’t know until the flood came and took them all away, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.

KJVAnd^G2532 knew^G1097^(G5627) not^G3756 until^G2193 the flood^G2627 came^G2064^(G5627), and^G2532 took^G142 them all^G537 away^G142^(G5656); so^G3779 shall^G2071 also^G2532 the coming^G3952 of the Son^G5207 of man^G444 be^G2071^(G5704).

⁴⁰ Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one will be left.

KJVThen^G5119 shall^G2071 two^G1417 be^G2071^(G5704) in^G1722 the field^G68; the one^G1520 shall be taken^G3880^(G5743), and^G2532 the other^G1520 left^G863^(G5743).

⁴¹ Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and one will be left.

KJVTwo^G1417 women shall be grinding^G229^(G5723) at^G1722 the mill^G3459; the one^G3391 shall be taken^G3880^(G5743), and^G2532 the other^G3391 left^G863^(G5743).

⁴² Watch therefore, for you don’t know in what hour your Lord comes.

KJVWatch^G1127^(G5720) therefore^G3767: for^G3754 ye know^G1492^(G5758) not^G3756 what^G4169 hour^G5610 your^G5216 Lord^G2962 doth come^G2064^(G5736).

⁴³ But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

KJVBut^G1161 know^G1097^(G5719) this^G1565, that^G3754 if^G1487 the goodman of the house^G3617 had known^G1492^(G5715) in what^G4169 watch^G5438 the thief^G2812 would come^G2064^(G5736), he would^G302 have watched^G1127^(G5656), and^G2532 would^G302 not^G3756 have suffered^G1439^(G5656) his^G846 house^G3614 to be broken up^G1358^(G5650).

⁴⁴ Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don’t expect, the Son of Man will come.

KJVTherefore^G1223^G5124 be^G1096^(G5737) ye^G5210 also^G2532 ready^G2092: for^G3754 in such^G3739 an hour^G5610 as ye think^G1380^(G5719) not^G3756 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 cometh^G2064^(G5736).

⁴⁵ “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?

KJVWho^G5101 then^G686 is^G2076^(G5748) a faithful^G4103 and^G2532 wise^G5429 servant^G1401, whom^G3739 his^G846 lord^G2962 hath made ruler^G2525^(G5656) over^G1909 his^G846 household^G2322, to give^G1325^(G5721) them^G846 meat^G5160 in^G1722 due season^G2540?

⁴⁶ Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.

KJVBlessed^G3107 is that^G1565 servant^G1401, whom^G3739 his^G846 lord^G2962 when he cometh^G2064^(G5631) shall find^G2147^(G5692) so^G3779 doing^G4160^(G5723).

⁴⁷ Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.

KJVVerily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, That^G3754 he shall make^G2525 him^G846 ruler^G2525^(G5692) over^G1909 all^G3956 his^G846 goods^G5224^(G5723).

⁴⁸ But if that evil servant should say in his heart, ‘My lord is delaying his coming,’

KJVBut and^G1161 if^G1437 that^G1565 evil^G2556 servant^G1401 shall say^G2036^(G5632) in^G1722 his^G846 heart^G2588, My^G3450 lord^G2962 delayeth^G5549^(G5719) his coming^G2064^(G5629);

⁴⁹ and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,

KJVAnd^G2532 shall begin^G756^(G5672) to smite^G5180^(G5721) his fellowservants^G4889, and^G1161 to eat^G2068^(G5721) and^G2532 drink^G4095^(G5721) with^G3326 the drunken^G3184^(G5723);

⁵⁰ the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn’t expect it and in an hour when he doesn’t know it,

KJVThe lord^G2962 of that^G1565 servant^G1401 shall come^G2240^(G5692) in^G1722 a day^G2250 when^G3739 he looketh^G4328^(G5719) not^G3756 for him, and^G2532 in^G1722 an hour^G5610 that^G3739 he is^G1097 not^G3756 aware of^G1097^(G5719),

⁵¹ and will cut him in pieces and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.

KJVAnd^G2532 shall cut^G1371 him^G846 asunder^G1371^(G5692), and^G2532 appoint^G5087^(G5692) him his^G846 portion^G3313 with^G3326 the hypocrites^G5273: there^G1563 shall be^G2071^(G5704) weeping^G2805 and^G2532 gnashing^G1030 of teeth^G3599.
