Luke 21:29-38 ▼

29 And He spake a parable to them: "Behold the fig tree and all the trees;

30 when they now shoot forth, beholding it, ye know of yourselves that already the summer is near.

31 So also ye, when ye see these things coming to pass, know that the Kingdom of God is near.

32 Verily I say to you, this generation will in no wise pass away, till all come to pass.

33 The heaven and the earth will pass away; but My words shall in no wise pass away.

34 "But take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be weighed down with gluttony and drunkenness, and anxieties pertaining to life, and that day come upon you suddenly as a snare;

35 for so it will come upon all those dwelling upon the face of all the earth.

36 But watch ye at every season, praying that ye may have full strength to escape all these things that are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man."

37 And He was, during the days, in the temple, teaching; and, during the nights, going forth, He was wont to lodge in the mount which is called Olives.

38 And all the people were coming to Him early in the morning, in the temple, to hear Him.
