[7] And they asked him, saying, Master, but when and what sign will there be when shall come to pass? [8] And he said, Take heed not deceived: for many shall come in name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not after them. [9] But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, not terrified: for must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. [10] Then unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: [11] And great earthquakes in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs from heaven. [12] But before they shall lay their hands on and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, before kings and rulers name's sake. [13] it shall turn for a testimony. [14] Settle it therefore hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: [15] For I will give a mouth and wisdom, which adversaries not be able resist. [16] And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of shall they cause to be put to death. [17] And hated of all men for name's sake. [18] But an hair of head perish. [19] In patience possess ye souls.
