Luke. CH. XXI. 5-19. 5 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones, and gifts, he said, 6 _As for_ these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 7 And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign _will there be_ when these things shall come to pass? 8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am _Christ_; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. 9 But when ye shall hear of wars, and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end _is_ not by and by. 10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: 11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences: and fearful sights, and great signs shall there be from heaven. 12 But before all these they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute _you_, delivering _you_ up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name’s sake. 13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony. 14 Settle _it_ therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer. 15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist. 16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and _some_ of you shall they cause to be put to death.(252) 17 And ye shall be hated of all _men_ for my name’s sake. 18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish. 19 In your patience possess ye your souls. § 128.
