Mark 13:20-22 And if the Lord had not shortened the days, not any flesh would have been saved; but on account of the elect whom He chose, He has shortened the days.

BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁰ And if the Lord had not shortened the days, not any flesh would have been saved; but on account of the elect whom He chose, He has shortened the days. ²¹ And then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ! Behold, there!’ you shall not believe it. ²² For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will give signs and wonders so as to deceive, if possible, the elect.
