Matthew 24:2-14
New American Standard Bible
4And Jesus answered and said to them, 'See to it that no one misleads you.
5For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will mislead many people.
6And you will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end.
7For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places.
8But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pains.
9Then they will hand you over to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.
10And at that time many will fall away, and they will betray one another and hate one another.
11And many false prophets will rise up and mislead many people.
12And because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will become cold.
13But the one who endures to the end is the one who will be saved.
14This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
King James Version
Chapter 24
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. 3And 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.
