¹⁵ He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846, With desire^G1939 I have desired^G1937^(G5656) to eat^G5315^(G5629) this^G5124 passover^G3957 with^G3326 you^G5216 before^G4253 I^G3165 suffer^G3958^(G5629):

¹⁶ for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in God’s Kingdom.”

KJVFor^G1063 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213,^G3754 I will^G5315 not^G3765 any more^G3364 eat^G5315^(G5632) thereof^G846^G1537, until^G2193^G3755 it be fulfilled^G4137^(G5686) in^G1722 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316.

¹⁷ He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this and share it among yourselves,

KJVAnd^G2532 he took^G1209^(G5666) the cup^G4221, and gave thanks^G2168^(G5660), and said^G2036^(G5627), Take^G2983^(G5628) this^G5124, and^G2532 divide^G1266^(G5657) it among yourselves^G1438:

¹⁸ for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until God’s Kingdom comes.”

KJVFor^G1063 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213,^G3754 I will^G4095 not^G3364 drink^G4095^(G5632) of^G575 the fruit^G1081 of the vine^G288, until^G2193^G3755 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 shall come^G2064^(G5632).

¹⁹ He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he took^G2983^(G5631) bread^G740, and gave thanks^G2168^(G5660), and brake^G2806^(G5656) it, and^G2532 gave^G1325^(G5656) unto them^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), This^G5124 is^G2076^(G5748) my^G3450 body^G4983 which^G3588 is given^G1325^(G5746) for^G5228 you^G5216: this^G5124 do^G4160^(G5720) in remembrance^G364 of^G1519 me^G1699.

²⁰ Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

KJVLikewise^G5615 also^G2532 the cup^G4221 after^G3326 supper^G1172^(G5658), saying^G3004^(G5723), This^G5124 cup^G4221 is the new^G2537 testament^G1242 in^G1722 my^G3450 blood^G129, which^G3588 is shed^G1632^(G5746) for^G5228 you^G5216.

²¹ But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.

KJVBut^G4133, behold^G2400^(G5628), the hand^G5495 of him that betrayeth^G3860^(G5723) me^G3165 is with^G3326 me^G1700 on^G1909 the table^G5132.

²² The Son of Man indeed goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”

KJVAnd^G2532 truly^G3303 the Son^G5207 of man^G444 goeth^G4198^(G5736), as^G2596 it was determined^G3724^(G5772): but^G4133 woe^G3759 unto that^G1565 man^G444 by^G1223 whom^G3739 he is betrayed^G3860^(G5743)!

²³ They began to question among themselves which of them it was who would do this thing.

KJVAnd^G2532 they^G846 began^G756^(G5662) to enquire^G4802^(G5721) among^G4314 themselves^G1438, which^G5101^G686 of^G1537 them^G846 it was^G1498^(G5751) that should^G3195^(G5723) do^G4238^(G5721) this thing^G5124.

²⁴ A dispute also arose among them, which of them was considered to be greatest.

KJVAnd^G1161 there was^G1096^(G5633) also^G2532 a strife^G5379 among^G1722 them^G846, which^G5101 of them^G846 should be accounted^G1380^(G5719)^G1511^(G5750) the greatest^G3187.

²⁵ He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, The kings^G935 of the Gentiles^G1484 exercise lordship over^G2961^(G5719) them^G846; and^G2532 they that exercise authority upon^G1850^(G5723) them^G846 are called^G2564^(G5743) benefactors^G2110.

²⁶ But not so with you. Rather, the one who is greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.

KJVBut^G1161 ye^G5210 shall not^G3756 be so^G3779: but^G235 he that is greatest^G3187 among^G1722 you^G5213, let him be^G1096^(G5634) as^G5613 the younger^G3501; and^G2532 he that is chief^G2233^(G5740), as^G5613 he that doth serve^G1247^(G5723).

²⁷ For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.

KJVFor^G1063 whether^G5101 is greater^G3187, he that sitteth at meat^G345^(G5740), or^G2228 he that serveth^G1247^(G5723)? is not^G3780 he that sitteth at meat^G345^(G5740)? but^G1161 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) among^G1722^G3319 you^G5216 as^G5613 he that serveth^G1247^(G5723).

²⁸ “But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.

KJV^G1161 Ye^G5210 are^G2075^(G5748) they which have continued^G1265^(G5761) with^G3326 me^G1700 in^G1722 my^G3450 temptations^G3986.

²⁹ I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,

KJVAnd I^G2504 appoint^G1303^(G5731) unto you^G5213 a kingdom^G932, as^G2531 my^G3450 Father^G3962 hath appointed^G1303^(G5639) unto me^G3427;

³⁰ that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

KJVThat^G2443 ye may eat^G2068^(G5725) and^G2532 drink^G4095^(G5725) at^G1909 my^G3450 table^G5132 in^G1722 my^G3450 kingdom^G932, and^G2532 sit^G2523^(G5667) on^G1909 thrones^G2362 judging^G2919^(G5723) the twelve^G1427 tribes^G5443 of Israel^G2474.

³¹ The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have all of you, that he might sift you as wheat,

KJVAnd^G1161 the Lord^G2962 said^G2036^(G5627), Simon^G4613, Simon^G4613, behold^G2400^(G5628), Satan^G4567 hath desired^G1809^(G5668) to have you^G5209, that he may sift^G4617^(G5658) you as^G5613 wheat^G4621:

³² but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers.”

KJVBut^G1161 I^G1473 have prayed^G1189^(G5681) for^G4012 thee^G4675, that^G3363 thy^G4675 faith^G4102 fail^G1587^(G5725) not^G3363: and^G2532 when^G4218 thou^G4771 art converted^G1994^(G5660), strengthen^G4741^(G5657) thy^G4675 brethren^G80.

³³ He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Lord^G2962, I am^G1510^(G5748) ready^G2092 to go^G4198^(G5738) with^G3326 thee^G4675, both^G2532 into^G1519 prison^G5438, and^G2532 to^G1519 death^G2288.

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627), I tell^G3004^(G5719) thee^G4671, Peter^G4074, the cock^G220 shall^G5455 not^G3364 crow^G5455^(G5692) this day^G4594, before that^G4250 thou shalt^G2228 thrice^G5151 deny^G533^(G5695) that thou^G3361 knowest^G1492^(G5760) me^G3165.

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, When^G3753 I sent^G649^(G5656) you^G5209 without^G817 purse^G905, and^G2532 scrip^G4082, and^G2532 shoes^G5266,^G3361 lacked ye^G5302^(G5656) any thing^G5100? And^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), Nothing^G3762.

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

KJVThen^G3767 said he^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, But^G235 now^G3568, he that hath^G2192^(G5723) a purse^G905, let him take^G142^(G5657) it, and^G2532 likewise^G3668 his scrip^G4082: and^G2532 he that hath^G2192^(G5723) no^G3361 sword^G3162, let him sell^G4453^(G5657) his^G846 garment^G2440, and^G2532 buy^G59^(G5692) one.

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ For that which concerns me is being fulfilled.”

KJVFor^G1063 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, that^G3754 this^G5124 that is written^G1125^(G5772) must^G1163^(G5748) yet^G2089 be accomplished^G5055^(G5683) in^G1722 me^G1698, And^G2532 he was reckoned^G3049^(G5681) among^G3326 the transgressors^G459: for^G2532^G1063 the things concerning^G4012 me^G1700 have^G2192^(G5719) an end^G5056.

³⁸ They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

KJVAnd^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), Lord^G2962, behold^G2400^(G5628), here^G5602 are two^G1417 swords^G3162. And^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, It is^G2076^(G5748) enough^G2425.

³⁹ He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

KJVAnd^G2532 he came out^G1831^(G5631), and went^G4198^(G5675), as^G2596 he was wont^G1485, to^G1519 the mount^G3735 of Olives^G1636; and^G1161 his^G846 disciples^G3101 also^G2532 followed^G190^(G5656) him^G846.

⁴⁰ When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

KJVAnd^G1161 when he was^G1096^(G5637) at^G1909 the place^G5117, he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Pray^G4336^(G5737) that ye enter^G1525^(G5629) not^G3361 into^G1519 temptation^G3986.

⁴¹ He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

KJVAnd^G2532 he^G846 was withdrawn^G645^(G5681) from^G575 them^G846 about^G5616 a stone's^G3037 cast^G1000, and^G2532 kneeled down^G5087^(G5631)^G1119, and prayed^G4336^(G5711),

⁴² saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

KJVSaying^G3004^(G5723), Father^G3962, if^G1487 thou be willing^G1014^(G5736), remove^G3911^(G5629)^(G5625)^G3911^(G5628) this^G5124 cup^G4221 from^G575 me^G1700: nevertheless^G4133 not^G3361 my^G3450 will^G2307, but^G235 thine^G4674, be done^G1096^(G5634).

⁴³ An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

KJVAnd^G1161 there appeared^G3700^(G5681) an angel^G32 unto him^G846 from^G575 heaven^G3772, strengthening^G1765^(G5723) him^G846.

⁴⁴ Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

KJVAnd^G2532 being^G1096^(G5637) in^G1722 an agony^G74 he prayed^G4336^(G5711) more earnestly^G1617: and^G1161 his^G846 sweat^G2402 was^G1096^(G5633) as it were^G5616 great drops^G2361 of blood^G129 falling down^G2597^(G5723) to^G1909 the ground^G1093.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,

KJVAnd^G2532 when he rose up^G450^(G5631) from^G575 prayer^G4335, and was come^G2064^(G5631) to^G4314 his^G846 disciples^G3101, he found^G2147^(G5627) them^G846 sleeping^G2837^(G5746) for^G575 sorrow^G3077,

⁴⁶ and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

KJVAnd^G2532 said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, Why^G5101 sleep ye^G2518^(G5719)? rise^G450^(G5631) and pray^G4336^(G5737), lest^G3363 ye enter^G1525^(G5632) into^G1519 temptation^G3986.

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

KJVAnd^G1161 while he^G846 yet^G2089 spake^G2980^(G5723), behold^G2400^(G5628) a multitude^G3793, and^G2532 he that was called^G3004^(G5746) Judas^G2455, one^G1520 of the twelve^G1427, went before^G4281^(G5711) them^G846, and^G2532 drew near^G1448^(G5656) unto Jesus^G2424 to kiss^G5368^(G5658) him^G846.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

KJVBut^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Judas^G2455, betrayest thou^G3860^(G5719) the Son^G5207 of man^G444 with a kiss^G5370?

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

KJVWhen^G1161 they which were about^G4012 him^G846 saw^G1492^(G5631) what would follow^G2071^(G5706), they said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Lord^G2962,^G1487 shall we smite^G3960^(G5692) with^G1722 the sword^G3162?

⁵⁰ A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

KJVAnd^G2532 one^G1520^G5100 of^G1537 them^G846 smote^G3960^(G5656) the servant^G1401 of the high priest^G749, and^G2532 cut off^G851^(G5627) his^G846 right^G1188 ear^G3775.

⁵¹ But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him.

KJVAnd^G1161 Jesus^G2424 answered^G611^(G5679) and said^G2036^(G5627), Suffer ye^G1439^(G5720) thus^G5127 far^G2193. And^G2532 he touched^G680^(G5671) his^G846 ear^G5621, and healed^G2390^(G5662) him^G846.

⁵² Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

KJVThen^G1161 Jesus^G2424 said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 the chief priests^G749, and^G2532 captains^G4755 of the temple^G2411, and^G2532 the elders^G4245, which were come^G3854^(G5637) to^G1909 him^G846, Be ye come out^G1831^(G5758), as^G5613 against^G1909 a thief^G3027, with^G3326 swords^G3162 and^G2532 staves^G3586?

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

KJVWhen^G5607 I^G3450 was^G5607^(G5752) daily^G2250^G2596 with^G3326 you^G5216 in^G1722 the temple^G2411, ye stretched forth^G1614^(G5656) no^G3756 hands^G5495 against^G1909 me^G1691: but^G235 this^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) your^G5216 hour^G5610, and^G2532 the power^G1849 of darkness^G4655.

⁵⁴ They seized him and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.

KJVThen^G1161 took they^G4815^(G5631) him^G846, and led^G71^(G5627) him, and^G2532 brought^G1521^(G5627) him^G846 into^G1519 the high priest's^G749 house^G3624. And^G1161 Peter^G4074 followed^G190^(G5707) afar off^G3113.

⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.

KJVAnd^G1161 when they^G846 had kindled^G681^(G5660) a fire^G4442 in^G1722 the midst^G3319 of the hall^G833, and^G2532 were set down together^G4776^(G5660), Peter^G4074 sat down^G2521^(G5711) among^G3319^G1722 them^G846.

⁵⁶ A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

KJVBut^G1161 a certain^G5100 maid^G3814 beheld^G1492^(G5631) him^G846 as he sat^G2521^(G5740) by^G4314 the fire^G5457, and^G2532 earnestly looked^G816^(G5660) upon him^G846, and said^G2036^(G5627), This man^G3778 was^G2258^(G5713) also^G2532 with^G4862 him^G846.

⁵⁷ He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

KJVAnd^G1161 he denied^G720^(G5662) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Woman^G1135, I know^G1492^(G5758) him^G846 not^G3756.

⁵⁸ After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

KJVAnd^G2532 after^G3326 a little while^G1024 another^G2087 saw^G1492^(G5631) him^G846, and said^G5346^(G5713), Thou^G4771 art^G1488^(G5748) also^G2532 of^G1537 them^G846. And^G1161 Peter^G4074 said^G2036^(G5627), Man^G444, I am^G1510^(G5748) not^G3756.

⁵⁹ After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

KJVAnd^G2532 about^G5616 the space^G1339^(G5631) of one^G3391 hour^G5610 after another^G243^G5100 confidently affirmed^G1340^(G5711), saying^G3004^(G5723), Of^G1909 a truth^G225 this^G3778 fellow also^G2532 was^G2258^(G5713) with^G3326 him^G846: for^G1063^G2532 he is^G2076^(G5748) a Galilaean^G1057.

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

KJVAnd^G1161 Peter^G4074 said^G2036^(G5627), Man^G444, I know^G1492^(G5758) not^G3756 what^G3739 thou sayest^G3004^(G5719). And^G2532 immediately^G3916, while he^G846 yet^G2089 spake^G2980^(G5723), the cock^G220 crew^G5455^(G5656).

⁶¹ The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

KJVAnd^G2532 the Lord^G2962 turned^G4762^(G5651), and looked upon^G1689^(G5656) Peter^G4074. And^G2532 Peter^G4074 remembered^G5279^(G5656) the word^G3056 of the Lord^G2962, how^G5613 he had said^G2036^(G5627) unto him^G846, Before^G3754^G4250 the cock^G220 crow^G5455^(G5658), thou shalt deny^G533^(G5695) me^G3165 thrice^G5151.

⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

KJVAnd^G2532 Peter^G4074 went^G1831^(G5631) out^G1854, and wept^G2799^(G5656) bitterly^G4090.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

KJVAnd^G2532 the men^G435 that held^G4912^(G5723) Jesus^G2424 mocked^G1702^(G5707) him^G846, and smote^G1194^(G5723) him.

⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

KJVAnd^G2532 when they had blindfolded^G4028^(G5660) him^G846, they struck^G5180^(G5707) him^G846 on the face^G4383, and^G2532 asked^G1905^(G5707) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Prophesy^G4395^(G5657), who^G5101 is it^G2076^(G5748) that smote^G3817^(G5660) thee^G4571?

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

KJVAnd^G2532 many^G4183 other things^G2087 blasphemously^G987^(G5723) spake they^G3004^(G5707) against^G1519 him^G846.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

KJVAnd^G2532 as soon as^G5613 it was^G1096^(G5633) day^G2250, the elders^G4244 of the people^G2992 and^G5037 the chief priests^G749 and^G2532 the scribes^G1122 came together^G4863^(G5681), and^G2532 led^G321^(G5627) him^G846 into^G1519 their^G1438 council^G4892, saying^G3004^(G5723),

⁶⁷ “If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

KJV^G1487 Art^G1488^(G5748) thou^G4771 the Christ^G5547? tell^G2036^(G5628) us^G2254. And^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto them^G846, If^G1437 I tell^G2036^(G5632) you^G5213, ye will^G4100 not^G3364 believe^G4100^(G5661):

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

KJVAnd^G1161 if^G1437 I also^G2532 ask^G2065^(G5661) you, ye will^G611 not^G3364 answer^G611^(G5676) me^G3427, nor^G2228 let me go^G630^(G5661).

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

KJVHereafter^G3568^G575 shall^G2071^(G5704) the Son^G5207 of man^G444 sit^G2521^(G5740) on^G1537 the right hand^G1188 of the power^G1411 of God^G2316.

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

KJVThen^G1161 said^G5346^(G5713) they all^G3956, Art^G1488^(G5748) thou^G4771 then^G3767 the Son^G5207 of God^G2316? And^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627) unto^G4314 them^G846, Ye^G5210 say^G3004^(G5719) that^G3754 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748).

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

KJVAnd^G1161 they said^G2036^(G5627), What^G5101 need^G2192^(G5719) we^G5532 any further^G2089 witness^G3141? for^G1063 we ourselves^G846 have heard^G191^(G5656) of^G575 his own^G846 mouth^G4750.

WEB·Luke 21

¹He looked up and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury.

KJVAnd^G1161 he looked up^G308^(G5660), and saw^G1492^(G5627) the rich men^G4145 casting^G906^(G5723) their^G846 gifts^G1435 into^G1519 the treasury^G1049.

² He saw a certain poor widow casting in two small brass coins.

KJVAnd^G1161 he saw^G1492^(G5627) also^G2532 a certain^G5100 poor^G3998 widow^G5503 casting^G906^(G5723) in thither^G1563 two^G1417 mites^G3016.

³ He said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them,

KJVAnd^G2532 he said^G2036^(G5627), Of a truth^G230 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213, that^G3754 this^G3778 poor^G4434 widow^G5503 hath cast^G906^(G5627) in more than^G4119 they all^G3956:

⁴ for all these put in gifts for God from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on.”

KJVFor^G1063 all^G537 these^G3778 have of^G1537 their^G846 abundance^G4052^(G5723) cast^G906^(G5627) in unto^G1519 the offerings^G1435 of God^G2316: but^G1161 she^G3778^(G5625)^G846 of^G1537 her^G846 penury^G5303 hath cast^G906^(G5627) in all^G537 the living^G979 that^G3739 she had^G2192^(G5707).

⁵ As some were talking about the temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts, he said,

KJVAnd^G2532 as some^G5100 spake^G3004^(G5723) of^G4012 the temple^G2411, how^G3754 it was adorned^G2885^(G5769) with goodly^G2570 stones^G3037 and^G2532 gifts^G334, he said^G2036^(G5627),

⁶ “As for these things which you see, the days will come in which there will not be left here one stone on another that will not be thrown down.”

KJVAs for these things^G5023 which^G3739 ye behold^G2334^(G5719), the days^G2250 will come^G2064^(G5695), in^G1722 the which^G3739 there shall^G863 not^G3756 be left^G863^(G5701) one stone^G3037 upon^G1909 another^G3037, that^G3739 shall^G2647 not^G3756 be thrown down^G2647^(G5701).

⁷ They asked him, “Teacher, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?”

KJVAnd^G1161 they asked^G1905^(G5656) him^G846, saying^G3004^(G5723), Master^G1320, but^G3767 when^G4219 shall^G2071 these things^G5023 be^G2071^(G5704)? and^G2532 what^G5101 sign^G4592 will there be when^G3752 these things^G5023 shall^G3195^(G5725) come to pass^G1096^(G5738)?

⁸ He said, “Watch out that you don’t get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is at hand.’ Therefore don’t follow them.

KJVAnd^G1161 he said^G2036^(G5627), Take heed^G991^(G5720) that ye be^G4105 not^G3361 deceived^G4105^(G5686): for^G1063 many^G4183 shall come^G2064^(G5695) in^G1909 my^G3450 name^G3686, saying^G3004^(G5723),^G3754 I^G1473 am^G1510^(G5748) Christ; and^G2532 the time^G2540 draweth near^G1448^(G5758): go ye^G4198^(G5680) not^G3361 therefore^G3767 after^G3694 them^G846.

⁹ When you hear of wars and disturbances, don’t be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won’t come immediately.”

KJVBut^G1161 when^G3752 ye shall hear^G191^(G5661) of wars^G4171 and^G2532 commotions^G181, be^G4422 not^G3361 terrified^G4422^(G5686): for^G1063 these things^G5023 must^G1163^(G5748) first^G4412 come to pass^G1096^(G5635); but^G235 the end^G5056 is not^G3756 by and by^G2112.

¹⁰ Then he said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

KJVThen^G5119 said he^G3004^(G5707) unto them^G846, Nation^G1484 shall rise^G1453^(G5701) against^G1909 nation^G1484, and^G2532 kingdom^G932 against^G1909 kingdom^G932:

¹¹ There will be great earthquakes, famines, and plagues in various places. There will be terrors and great signs from heaven.

KJVAnd^G5037 great^G3173 earthquakes^G4578 shall be^G2071^(G5704) in^G2596 divers places^G5117, and^G2532 famines^G3042, and^G2532 pestilences^G3061; and^G5037 fearful sights^G5400 and^G2532 great^G3173 signs^G4592 shall there be^G2071^(G5704) from^G575 heaven^G3772.

¹² But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for my name’s sake.

KJVBut^G1161 before^G4253 all^G537 these^G5130, they shall lay^G1911^(G5692) their^G846 hands^G5495 on^G1909 you^G5209, and^G2532 persecute^G1377^(G5692) you, delivering^G3860^(G5723) you up^G1519 to the synagogues^G4864, and^G2532 into prisons^G5438, being brought^G71^(G5746) before^G1909 kings^G935 and^G2532 rulers^G2232 for^G1752 my^G3450 name's^G3686 sake^G1752.

¹³ It will turn out as a testimony for you.

KJVAnd^G1161 it shall turn^G576^(G5695) to you^G5213 for^G1519 a testimony^G3142.

¹⁴ Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer,

KJVSettle^G5087^(G5640) it therefore^G3767 in^G1519 your^G5216 hearts^G2588, not^G3361 to meditate before^G4304^(G5721) what ye shall answer^G626^(G5677):

¹⁵ for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.

KJVFor^G1063 I^G1473 will give^G1325^(G5692) you^G5213 a mouth^G4750 and^G2532 wisdom^G4678, which^G3739 all^G3956 your^G5213 adversaries^G480^(G5740) shall^G1410 not^G3756 be able^G1410^(G5695) to gainsay^G471^(G5629) nor^G3761 resist^G436^(G5629).

¹⁶ You will be handed over even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends. They will cause some of you to be put to death.

KJVAnd^G1161 ye shall be betrayed^G3860^(G5701) both^G2532 by^G5259 parents^G1118, and^G2532 brethren^G80, and^G2532 kinsfolks^G4773, and^G2532 friends^G5384; and^G2532 some of^G1537 you^G5216 shall they cause to be put to death^G2289^(G5692).

¹⁷ You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake.

KJVAnd^G2532 ye shall be^G2071^(G5704) hated^G3404^(G5746) of^G5259 all^G3956 men for^G1223 my^G3450 name's sake^G3686.

¹⁸ And not a hair of your head will perish.

KJVBut^G2532 there shall not^G3364 an hair^G2359 of^G1537 your^G5216 head^G2776 perish^G622^(G5643).

¹⁹ “By your endurance you will win your lives.

²⁰ “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand.

²¹ Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the middle of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter therein.

KJVThen^G5119 let them^G5343 which are in^G1722 Judaea^G2449 flee^G5343^(G5720) to^G1519 the mountains^G3735; and^G2532 let them^G1633 which are in^G1722 the midst^G3319 of it^G846 depart out^G1633^(G5720); and^G2532 let^G1525 not^G3361 them that are in^G1722 the countries^G5561 enter^G1525^(G5737) thereinto^G1519^G846.

²³ Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath to this people.

²⁴ They will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

KJVAnd^G2532 he spake^G2036^(G5627) to them^G846 a parable^G3850; Behold^G1492^(G5628) the fig tree^G4808, and^G2532 all^G3956 the trees^G1186;

³⁰ When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.

KJVWhen^G3752 they now^G2235 shoot forth^G4261^(G5632), ye see^G991^(G5723) and know^G1097^(G5719) of^G575 your own selves^G1438 that^G3754 summer^G2330 is^G2076^(G5748) now^G2235 nigh at hand^G1451.

³¹ Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that God’s Kingdom is near.

KJVSo^G3779 likewise^G2532 ye^G5210, when^G3752 ye see^G1492^(G5632) these things^G5023 come to pass^G1096^(G5740), know ye^G1097^(G5720) that^G3754 the kingdom^G932 of God^G2316 is^G2076^(G5748) nigh at hand^G1451.

³² Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.

KJVVerily^G281 I say^G3004^(G5719) unto you^G5213,^G3754 This^G3778 generation^G1074 shall^G3928 not^G3364 pass away^G3928^(G5632),^G302 till^G2193 all^G3956 be fulfilled^G1096^(G5638).

³³ Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means 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).

³⁴ “So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly.

KJVAnd^G1161 take heed^G4337^(G5720) to yourselves^G1438, lest at any time^G3379 your^G5216 hearts^G2588 be overcharged^G925^(G5686) with^G1722 surfeiting^G2897, and^G2532 drunkenness^G3178, and^G2532 cares^G3308 of this life^G982, and^G2532 so that^G1565 day^G2250 come^G2186^(G5632) upon^G1909 you^G5209 unawares^G160.

³⁵ For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth.

KJVFor^G1063 as^G5613 a snare^G3803 shall it come^G1904^(G5695) on^G1909 all^G3956 them that dwell^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 the face^G4383 of the whole^G3956 earth^G1093.

³⁶ Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

KJVWatch ye^G69^(G5720) therefore^G3767, and pray^G1189^(G5740) always^G1722^G3956^G2540, that^G2443 ye may be accounted worthy^G2661^(G5686) to escape^G1628^(G5629) all^G3956 these things^G5023 that shall^G3195^(G5723) come to pass^G1096^(G5738), and^G2532 to stand^G2476^(G5683) before^G1715 the Son^G5207 of man^G444.

³⁷ Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.

KJVAnd^G1161 in the day time^G2250 he was^G2258^(G5713) teaching^G1321^(G5723) in^G1722 the temple^G2411; and^G1161 at night^G3571 he went out^G1831^(G5740), and abode^G835^(G5711) in^G1519 the mount^G3735 that is called^G2564^(G5746) the mount of Olives^G1636.

³⁸ All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.

KJVAnd^G2532 all^G3956 the people^G2992 came early in the morning^G3719^(G5707) to^G4314 him^G846 in^G1722 the temple^G2411, for to hear^G191^(G5721) him^G846.
