Luke 21:18-27

¹⁸(Not even one hair of your head will be wasted

¹⁹—you must secure your souls by your endurance.)

²⁰“But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that her desolation is at hand.

²¹Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; let those who are in the city get out, and let those who are in the country not enter her.

²²Because these are days of vengeance, that all the written things may be fulfilled.

²³But woe to those who are pregnant and to those nursing babies in those days! There will be great distress in the land, and wrath to this people.

²⁴Yes, they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

²⁵“There will be signs in sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, at the roaring and tossing of the sea;

²⁶men fainting from fear and expectation of the things coming on the inhabited earth—because the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

²⁷Then they will see the Son of the Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
