Matthew 24:15-25

Perilous Times

15 "Therefore when you see the ¹ABOMINATION OF DESOLATION which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in ²the holy place (³let the reader understand ),

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

17 "Whoever is on ⁴the housetop must not go down to get the things out that are in his house.

18 "Whoever is in the field must not turn back * to get his cloak.

19 "But ⁵woe 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.

21 "For then there will be a ⁶great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever * will.

22 "Unless those days had been cut short, no * life would have been saved; but for ⁷the sake of the elect those days will be cut short.

23 "⁸Then if anyone says to you, 'Behold, here is the Christ,' or 'There He is,' do not believe him.

24 "For false Christs and ⁹false prophets will arise and will show great ¹⁰signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even ¹¹the elect.

25 "Behold, I have told you in advance.
