The LORD said to my Lord,
Sit on my right hand,
43Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.
44David therefore calls him Lord, and how is he his son?
45And in the hearing of all the multitude, he said to his disciples: 46Beware of the scribes, who desire to go about in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the first seats in the synagogues, and the first places at feasts; 47who devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. These shall receive greater condemnation.
XXI. And looking up, he saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury. 2And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites. 3And he said: Of a truth I say to you, that this poor widow cast in more than all. 4For all these, out of their abundance, cast into the offerings; but she, out of her want, cast in all the living that she had.
5And as some were saying of the temple, that it has been adorned with beautiful stones and offerings, he said: 6As for these things which ye behold, days will come in which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 7And they asked him, saying: Teacher, when therefore will these things be, and what will be the sign when these things are about to come to pass?
8And he said: Take heed that ye be not led astray. For many will come in my name, saying: I am he, and the time is at hand. Go not after them. 9And when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified; for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not immediately.
10Then said he to them: Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; 11and there will be great earthquakes, and in divers places famines and pestilences; and there will be great portents and signs from heaven. 12And before all these, they will lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up into synagogues and prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake. 13And it shall turn out to you for a testimony.
14Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer. 15For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay or withstand. 16And ye will be delivered up both by parents, and brothers, and kindred, and friends; and some of you they will cause to be put to death. 17And ye will be hated by all for my name's sake. 18And there shall not a hair of your head perish. 19In your patience possess your souls[19].
