MNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²¹ for then shall be a time of great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never shall be again. ²² And if these days had not been shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but for the elect's sake these days will be cut short. ²³ "If at that time any one should say to you, 'See, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' believe him not. ²⁴ For false christs and false prophets will arise, and will work great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if it were possible, the very elect. ²⁵ See, I have forewarned you! So if they say to you, ²⁶ "'See, He is in the desert,' do not go out there. "'See, He is in the inner room,' do not believe it. ²⁷ For just as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west; so will be the coming of the Son of man. ²⁸ Wherever the corpse lies, there will the vultures flock together. ²⁹ "But immediately after the tribulation of those days, "The sun will be darkened, The moon will not shed her light, The stars will fall from the sky, And the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
