Matthew 24:22-24 And if those days had not been shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened.

Common⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² And if those days had not been shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. ²³ Then if any one says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it. ²⁴ For false christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
