Mark 13:7-9 Now whenever you hear of wars and reports of wars, do not be alarmed; for it is essential for these things to happen, but the end is not yet.

MLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁷ Now whenever you hear of wars and reports of wars, do not be alarmed; for it is essential for these things to happen, but the end is not yet. ⁸ For nation will arise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be earthquakes in different places; there will be famines and disturbances. These things are the beginnings of travail. ⁹ But you yourselves, beware, they will be giving you up to councils, and you will be whipped in synagogues and you will be standing in front of governors and kings, because of me, for a testimony to them.
