From the Gospel according to Luke
At that time, while some spoke of the temple, which was adorned with beautiful stones and votive offerings, Jesus said, "the days are coming, of the case, you will not be left one stone upon another that will not be destroyed. "
they asked him, "Teacher, when therefore will these things and what will be the sign when they are about to happen?". He replied: "Take care not to be deceived. In fact, many will come in my name, saying, "I am" and "The time is near." Do not go after them! When you hear of wars and revolutions, do not be terrified, because these things must happen first, but now is not the end. "
Then he told them: "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be earthquakes in various places, famines, and pestilences, and there will be terrifying and great signs from heaven.
But before all this they shall lay hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, and brought before kings and governors for my name's sake. You then have opportunity to give testimony. Put yourself in mind, therefore, not to prepare your defense, I will give you words and wisdom, so that all your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict.
You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers, relatives and friends, and kill some of you will be hated by all because of my name. But not a hair of your head will perish.
By your endurance you will save your life. " Word of the Lord
