Matthew 24:8-20
9 “(B)Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and (C)you will be hated by all nations because of My name.
10 At that time many will (a)(D)fall away and will (b)betray one another and hate one another.
11 Many (E)false prophets will arise and will mislead many.
12 Because lawlessness is increased, (c)most people’s love will grow cold.
13 (F)But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved.
14 This (G)gospel of the kingdom (H)shall be preached in the whole (d)(I)world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Perilous Times
15 “Therefore when you see the (J)abomination of desolation which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in (K)the holy place ((L)let the reader understand),
16 then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains.
17 (e)Whoever is on (M)the housetop must not go down to get the things out that are in his house.
18 (f)Whoever is in the field must not turn back to get his cloak.
19 But (N)woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!
20 But pray that your flight will not be in the winter, or on a Sabbath.
