The Good News According to Mark, Chapter 13
{13:1} As he went out of the temple, one of his [1>]talmidim[<1]
said to him, "Teacher, see what kind of stones and what kind of
buildings!"
{13:2} Yeshua said to him, "Do you see these great buildings? There
will not be left here one stone on another, which will not be thrown
down."
{13:3} As he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Rock,
Ya`akov, Yochanan, and Andrai asked him privately, {13:4} "Tell us,
when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are all
about to be fulfilled?"
{13:5} Yeshua, answering, began to tell them, "Be careful that no
one leads you astray. {13:6} For many will come in my name, saying, 'I
am he!' and will lead many astray.
{13:7} "When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, don't be troubled.
For those must happen, but the end is not yet. {13:8} For nation will
rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be
earthquakes in various places. There will be famines and troubles.
These things are the beginning of birth pains. {13:9} But watch
yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils. You will be
beaten in synagogues. You will stand before rulers and kings for my
sake, for a testimony to them. {13:10} The Good News must first be
preached to all the nations. {13:11} When they lead you away and
deliver you up, don't be anxious beforehand, or premeditate what you
will say, but say whatever will be given you in that hour. For it is
not you who speak, but the [2>]Ruach HaKodesh[<2].
{13:12} "Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father
his child. Children will rise up against parents, and cause them to be
put to death. {13:13} You will be hated by all men for my name's sake,
but he who endures to the end, the same will be saved. {13:14} But
when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniyel the
prophet, standing where it ought not (let the reader understand), then
let those who are in Yehudah flee to the mountains, {13:15} and let
him who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter in, to take anything
out of his house. {13:16} Let him who is in the field not return back
to take his cloak. {13:17} But woe to those who are with child and to
those who nurse babies in those days! {13:18} Pray that your flight
won't be in the winter. {13:19} For in those days there will be
oppression, such as there has not been the like from the beginning of
the creation which God created until now, and never will be. {13:20}
Unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would have been
saved; but for the elect's sake, whom he chose, he shortened the days.
{13:21} Then if anyone tells you, 'Look, here is the Messiah!' or,
'Look, there!' don't believe it. {13:22} For there will arise false
messiahs and false prophets, and will show signs and wonders, that
they may lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones. {13:23} But
you watch.
"Behold, I have told you all things beforehand. {13:24} But in those
days, after that oppression, the sun will be darkened, the moon will
not give its light, {13:25} the stars will be falling from the sky,
and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken. {13:26} Then
they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and
glory. {13:27} Then he will send out his angels, and will gather
together his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the
[3>]eretz[<3] to the ends of the sky.
{13:28} "Now from the fig tree, learn this parable. When the branch
has now become tender, and puts forth its leaves, you know that the
summer is near; {13:29} even so you also, when you see these things
coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors. {13:30} Most
assuredly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all
these things happen. {13:31} Heaven and [4>]eretz[<4] will pass away,
but my words will not pass away. {13:32} But of that day or that hour
no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the
Father. {13:33} Watch, keep alert, and pray; for you don't know when
the time is.
{13:34} "It is like a man, traveling to another country, having left
his house, and given authority to his servants, and to each one his
work, and also commanded the doorkeeper to keep watch. {13:35} Watch
therefore, for you don't know when the lord of the house is coming,
whether at evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in
the morning; {13:36} lest coming suddenly he might find you sleeping.
{13:37} What I tell you, I tell all: Watch."
