till I put your enemies under your feet."'
37 Therefore David himself calls him 'Lord'; how is he then his son?"
And the common people heard him gladly.
38 And in his teaching he said, "Beware of the scribes, who like
to go around in long robes, and to have salutations in the market places
39 and the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at feasts,
40 who devour widows' houses and for a pretense make long prayers.
They will receive the greater condemnation."
41 And Jesus sat down opposite the treasury, and watched the
multitude putting money into the treasury. Many people who were rich
put in large sums. 42 And a poor widow came, and put in two copper
coins, which make a penny. 43 And he called his disciples to him, and
said to them, "Truly, I say to you, this poor widow has put in more than
all those who are contributing to the treasury. 44 For they all put in out of
their abundance, but she out of her poverty put in everythingóall she had
to live on."

1 And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to
him, "Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful
buildings!" 2 And Jesus said to him, "Do you see all these great
buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another, that will
not be thrown down."
3 Now as he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple,
Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked him privately, 4 "Tell us, when will
this be? And what will be the sign when these things are all to be
fulfilled?" 5 And Jesus began to say to them: "Take heed that no one
deceives you. 6 Many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he,' and will
deceive many. 7 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be
alarmed; such things must happen, but the end is not yet. 8 For nation
will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be
earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles.
These are the beginning of birth pains. 9 But watch out for yourselves, for
they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be beaten in the
synagogues. You will be brought before governors and kings for my sake,
for a testimony to them. 10 And the gospel must first be preached to all
nations. 11 And when they bring you to trial and deliver you up, do not
worry beforehand what you are to say. But say whatever is given you in
that hour; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit. 12 Brother will
betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up
against parents and have them put to death. 13 And you will be hated by
all men for my name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.
14 "When you see 'the abomination of desolation' standing
where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are
in Judea flee to the mountains. 15 Let him who is on the housetop not go
down into the house, nor enter to take anything out of his house. 16 And
