Matthew 24

1 Christ foretelleth the destruction of the Temple: 3 what and how great calamities shall be before it: 29 the signs of his coming to judgment. 36 And because that day and hour is unknown, 42 we ought to watch like good servants, expecting every moment our master's coming.

 24:1 ¶ And 2532 Jesus 2424 went out, 1831 z5631 and departed 4198 z5711 from 575 the x3588 temple: 2411 and 2532 his 846 disciples 3101 came 4334 z5656 to [him] for to shew 1925 z5658 him 846 the x3588 buildings 3619 of the x3588 temple. 2411

 24:2 And 1161 Jesus 2424 said 2036 z5627 unto them, 846 See x991 ye y991 z5719 z5720 not 3756 all 3956 these things? 5023 verily 281 I say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 There shall y863 z0 not 3364 be left 863 z5686 here 5602 one stone y3037 upon y1909 another, 3037 x1909 that 3739 shall y2647 z0 not 3364 be thrown down. 2647 z5701

 24:3 ¶ And 1161 as he 846 sat 2521 z5740 upon 1909 the x3588 mount 3735 of Olives, 1636 the x3588 disciples 3101 came 4334 z5656 unto him 846 privately, 2596 y2398 x2396 saying, 3004 z5723 Tell 2036 z5628 us, 2254 when y4219 x4129 shall y2071 z0 these things 5023 be? 2071 z5704 and y2532 x2432 what 5101 [shall be] the x3588 sign 4592 of thy 4674 coming, 3952 and 2532 of the x3588 end 4930 of the x3588 world? 165

 24:4 And 2532 Jesus 2424 answered 611 z5679 and said 2036 z5627 unto them, 846 Take heed 991 z5720 that no 3361 man 5100 deceive 4105 z5661 you. 5209

 24:5 For 1063 many 4183 shall come 2064 z5695 in 1909 my 3450 name, 3686 saying, 3004 z5723 I 1473 am 1510 z5748 Christ; 5547 and 2532 shall deceive 4105 z5692 many. 4183

 24:6 And 1161 ye shall 3195 z5692 hear 191 z5721 of wars 4171 and 2532 rumours 189 of wars: 4171 see 3708 z5720 that ye be y2360 z0 not 3361 troubled: 2360 z5744 for 1063 all 3956 [these things] must 1163 z5748 come to pass, 1096 z5635 but 235 the x3588 end 5056 is 2076 z5748 not yet. 3768

 24:7 For 1063 nation 1484 shall rise 1453 z5701 against 1909 nation, 1484 and 2532 kingdom 932 against 1909 kingdom: 932 and 2532 there shall be 2071 z5704 famines, 3042 and 2532 pestilences, 3061 and 2532 earthquakes, 4578 in x2596 divers y2596 places. 5117

 24:8 x1161 All 3956 y1161 these 5023 [are] the beginning 746 of sorrows. 5604

 24:9 Then 5119 shall they deliver y3860 z0 you y5209 up 3860 z5692 x5209 to y1519 be afflicted, 2347 x1519 and 2532 shall kill 615 z5692 you: 5209 and 2532 ye shall be 2071 z5704 hated 3404 z5746 of 5259 all 3956 nations 1484 for y1223 my y3450 name's sake. 3686 x1223 x3450

 24:10 And 2532 then 5119 shall many 4183 be offended, 4624 z5701 and 2532 shall betray 3860 z5692 one another, 240 and 2532 shall hate 3404 z5692 one another. 240

 24:11 And 2532 many 4183 false prophets 5578 shall rise, 1453 z5701 and 2532 shall deceive 4105 z5692 many. 4183

 24:12 And 2532 because y1223 iniquity 458 shall abound, 4129 z5683 the x3588 love 26 of many 4183 shall wax cold. 5594 z5691

 24:13 But 1161 he that shall endure 5278 z5660 unto 1519 the end, 5056 the same 3778 shall be saved. 4982 z5701

 24:14 And 2532 this 5124 gospel 2098 of the x3588 kingdom 932 shall be preached 2784 z5701 in 1722 all 3650 the x3588 world 3625 for 1519 a witness 3142 unto all 3956 nations; 1484 and 2532 then 5119 shall the x3588 end 5056 come. 2240 z5692

 24:15 When 3752 ye therefore 3767 shall see 1492 z5632 the x3588 abomination 946 of desolation, 2050 spoken x4483 of y4483 z5685 by 1223 Daniel 1158 the x3588 prophet, 4396 stand 2476 z5756 z5625 z5761 in 1722 the holy 40 place, 5117 (whoso readeth, 314 z5723 let him understand:) 3539 z5720

 24:16 Then 5119 let them x3588 which be in 1722 Judaea 2449 flee 5343 z5720 into 1909 the x3588 mountains: 3735

 24:17 Let him x3588 which is on 1909 the x3588 housetop 1430 not 3361 come down 2597 z5720 to take 142 z5658 any thing 5100 out of 1537 his y846 x848 house: 3614

 24:18 2532 Neither 3361 let him x3588 which is in 1722 the x3588 field 68 return 1994 z5657 back 3694 to take 142 z5658 his y846 x848 clothes. 2440

 24:19 And 1161 woe 3759 unto them that are y2192 z5723 with y1722 child, 1064 x2192 x1722 and 2532 to them that give suck 2337 z5723 in 1722 those 1565 days! 2250

 24:20 But 1161 pray x4336 ye y4336 z5737 that y3363 z0 x2443 your 5216 flight 5437 be 1096 z5638 not y3363 x3361 in the winter, 5494 neither 3366 on 1722 the sabbath day: 4521

 24:21 For 1063 then 5119 shall be 2071 z5704 great 3173 tribulation, 2347 such as 3634 was 1096 z5754 not 3756 since 575 the beginning 746 of the world 2889 to x2193 this y2193 time, 3568 no, 3761 nor ever 3364 shall be. 1096 z5638

 24:22 And 2532 except 1508 those 1565 days 2250 should be shortened, 2856 z5681 there y3756 should y302 no y3956 x3756 flesh 4561 be saved: 4982 z5681 x302 but 1161 for y1223 the elect's sake 1588 x1223 x3588 those 1565 days 2250 shall be shortened. 2856 z5701

 24:23 Then 5119 if 1437 any man 5100 shall say 2036 z5632 unto you, 5213 Lo, 2400 z5628 here 5602 [is] Christ, 5547 or 2228 there; 5602 believe 4100 z5661 [it] not. 3361

 24:24 For 1063 there shall arise 1453 z5701 false Christs, 5580 and 2532 false prophets, 5578 and 2532 shall shew 1325 z5692 great 3173 signs 4592 and 2532 wonders; 5059 insomuch that, 5620 if 1487 [it were] possible, 1415 they shall deceive 4105 z5658 the x3588 very 2532 elect. 1588

 24:25 Behold, 2400 z5628 I have told y4280 z0 you y5213 before. 4280 z5758 x5213

 24:26 Wherefore 3767 if 1437 they shall say 2036 z5632 unto you, 5213 Behold, 2400 z5628 he is 2076 z5748 in 1722 the x3588 desert; 2048 go y1831 z0 not y3361 forth: 1831 z5632 x3361 behold, 2400 z5628 [he is] in 1722 the x3588 secret chambers; 5009 believe 4100 z5661 [it] not. 3361

 24:27 For 1063 as 5618 the x3588 lightning 796 cometh 1831 z5736 out of 575 the east, 395 and 2532 shineth 5316 z5727 even unto 2193 the west; 1424 so 3779 shall y2071 z0 also 2532 the x3588 coming 3952 of the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 be. 2071 z5704

 24:28 For 1063 wheresoever 1437 3699 the x3588 carcase 4430 is, 5600 z5753 there 1563 will y4863 z0 the x3588 eagles 105 be gathered together. 4863 z5701

 24:29 ¶ Immediately 2112 y1161 after 3326 the x3588 tribulation 2347 of those 1565 days 2250 shall the x3588 sun 2246 be darkened, 4654 z5701 and 2532 the x3588 moon 4582 shall y1325 z0 not 3756 give 1325 z5692 her y846 x848 light, 5338 and 2532 the x3588 stars 792 shall fall 4098 z5699 from 575 heaven, 3772 and 2532 the x3588 powers 1411 of the x3588 heavens 3772 shall be shaken: 4531 z5701

 24:30 And 2532 then 5119 shall appear 5316 z5691 the x3588 sign 4592 of the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 in 1722 heaven: 3772 and 2532 then 5119 shall y2875 z0 all 3956 the x3588 tribes 5443 of the x3588 earth 1093 mourn, 2875 z5695 and 2532 they shall see 3700 z5695 the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 coming 2064 z5740 in 1909 the x3588 clouds 3507 of heaven 3772 with 3326 power 1411 and 2532 great 4183 glory. 1391

 24:31 And 2532 he shall send 649 z5692 his 846 angels 32 with 3326 a great 3173 sound 5456 of a trumpet, 4536 and 2532 they shall gather together 1996 z5692 his y846 x848 elect 1588 from 1537 the x3588 four 5064 winds, 417 from 575 one end 206 of heaven 3772 to 2193 the other. 206 y846

 24:32 Now 1161 learn 3129 z5628 a parable 3850 of 575 the x3588 fig tree; 4808 When 3752 his 846 branch 2798 is 1096 z5638 yet 2235 tender, 527 and 2532 putteth forth 1631 z5725 leaves, 5444 ye know 1097 z5719 that 3754 summer 2330 [is] nigh: 1451

 24:33 So 3779 likewise 2532 ye, 5210 when 3752 ye shall see 1492 z5632 all 3956 these things, 5023 know 1097 z5719 z5720 that 3754 it is 2076 z5748 near, 1451 [even] at 1909 the doors. 2374

 24:34 Verily 281 I say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 This 3778 generation 1074 shall not 3364 pass, 3928 z5632 till 302 2193 all 3956 these things 5023 be fulfilled. 1096 z5638

 24:35 Heaven 3772 and 2532 earth 1093 shall pass away, 3928 z5695 but 1161 my 3450 words 3056 shall y3928 z0 not 3364 pass away. 3928 z5632

 24:36 ¶ But 1161 of 4012 that 1565 day 2250 and 2532 hour 5610 knoweth 1492 z5758 no 3762 [man], no, not 3761 the x3588 angels 32 of heaven, 3772 but 1508 my 3450 Father 3962 only. 3441

 24:37 But 1161 as 5618 the x3588 days y2250 x2550 of Noe 3575 [were], so 3779 shall y2071 z0 also 2532 the x3588 coming 3952 of the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 be. 2071 z5704

 24:38 For 1063 as 5618 in 1722 the x3588 days 2250 that x3588 were y2258 z5713 before 4253 the x3588 flood 2627 they were x2258 eating 5176 z5723 and 2532 drinking, 4095 z5723 marrying 1060 z5723 and 2532 giving in marriage, 1547 z5723 until 891 the day 2250 that 3739 Noe 3575 entered 1525 z5627 into 1519 the x3588 ark, 2787

 24:39 And 2532 knew 1097 z5627 not 3756 until 2193 the x3588 flood 2627 came, 2064 z5627 and 2532 took y142 z0 them all y537 away; 142 z5656 x537 so 3779 shall y2071 z0 also 2532 the x3588 coming 3952 of the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 be. 2071 z5704

 24:40 Then 5119 shall y2071 z0 two 1417 be 2071 z5704 in 1722 the x3588 field; 68 the x3588 one 1520 shall be taken, 3880 z5743 and 2532 the x3588 other 1520 left. 863 z5743

 24:41 Two 1417 [women shall be] grinding 229 z5723 at 1722 the x3588 mill; 3459 the one 3391 shall be taken, 3880 z5743 and 2532 the other 3391 left. 863 z5743

 24:42 ¶ Watch 1127 z5720 therefore: 3767 for 3754 ye know 1492 z5758 not 3756 what 4169 hour 5610 your 5216 Lord 2962 doth come. 2064 z5736

 24:43 But 1161 know 1097 z5719 z5720 this, 1565 that 3754 if 1487 the x3588 goodman of the house 3617 had known 1492 z5715 in what 4169 watch 5438 the x3588 thief 2812 would come, 2064 z5736 he would y302 have watched, 1127 z5656 x302 and 2532 would y302 not 3756 have suffered 1439 z5656 x302 his y846 x848 house 3614 to be broken up. 1358 z5650

 24:44 Therefore 1223 5124 be 1096 z5737 ye 5210 also 2532 ready: 2092 for 3754 in such 3739 an hour 5610 as ye think 1380 z5719 not 3756 the x3588 Son 5207 of man 444 cometh. 2064 z5736

 24:45 Who 5101 then 686 is 2076 z5748 a faithful 4103 and 2532 wise 5429 servant, 1401 whom 3739 his 846 lord 2962 hath made ruler 2525 z5656 over 1909 his y846 x848 household, 2322 to give 1325 z5721 them 846 meat 5160 in 1722 due season? 2540

 24:46 Blessed 3107 [is] that 1565 servant, 1401 whom 3739 his 846 lord 2962 when he cometh 2064 z5631 shall find 2147 z5692 so 3779 doing. 4160 z5723

 24:47 Verily 281 I say 3004 z5719 unto you, 5213 That 3754 he shall make y2525 z0 him y846 ruler 2525 z5692 x846 over 1909 all 3956 his y846 x848 goods. 5224 z5723

 24:48 But x1161 and y1161 if 1437 that 1565 evil 2556 servant 1401 shall say 2036 z5632 in 1722 his y846 x848 heart, 2588 My 3450 lord 2962 delayeth 5549 z5719 his coming; 2064 z5629

 24:49 And 2532 shall begin 756 z5672 to smite 5180 z5721 [his] fellowservants, 4889 and 1161 to eat 2068 z5721 and 2532 drink 4095 z5721 with 3326 the x3588 drunken; 3184 z5723

 24:50 The x3588 lord 2962 of that 1565 servant 1401 shall come 2240 z5692 in 1722 a day 2250 when 3739 he looketh 4328 z5719 not 3756 for [him], and 2532 in 1722 an hour 5610 that 3739 he is y1097 z0 not 3756 aware x1097 of, y1097 z5719

 24:51 And 2532 shall cut y1371 z0 him y846 asunder, 1371 z5692 x846 and 2532 appoint 5087 z5692 [him] his 846 portion 3313 with 3326 the x3588 hypocrites: 5273 there 1563 shall be 2071 z5704 weeping 2805 and 2532 gnashing 1030 of teeth. 3599
