Bible. Luke
42:020:044 David therefore calleth him Lord, how is he then his son?
42:020:045 Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his
disciples,
42:020:046 Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and
love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the
synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts;
42:020:047 Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers:
the same shall receive greater damnation.
42:021:001 And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts
into the treasury.
42:021:002 And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two
mites.
42:021:003 And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow
hath cast in more than they all:
42:021:004 For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the
offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the
living that she had.
42:021:005 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with
goodly stones and gifts, he said,
42:021:006 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.
42:021:007 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?
42:021:008 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.
42:021:009 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.
42:021:010 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and
kingdom against kingdom:
42:021:011 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines,
and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall
there be from heaven.
42:021:012 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.
42:021:013 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
42:021:014 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before
what ye shall answer:
42:021:015 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your
adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
42:021:016 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.
42:021:017 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.
42:021:018 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
42:021:019 In your patience possess ye your souls.
