\subsection{Mark 13}
\subsubsection{The Destruction of the Temple}
\VS{1} And when he went out of the temple one of his disciples says to him: Behold 
how great [are] the stones and how great [are] the buildings. 
\VS{2} And Jesus said to 
him: Do you see these great buildings? There will \negd{not} be left 
stone upon stone that will \negd{not} be thrown down. 

\subsubsection{Signs of the End of the Age}
\VS{3} And when 
he sat on the mount of olives opposite the temple Peter and James and John 
asked him privately: 
\VS{4} Tell us, when will these [things] be, and what [is] the sign 
when these [things] are [about] to complete everything? 
\VS{5} So Jesus began to be saying 
to them: Be seeing that no one deceive you. 
\VS{6} Many will come on my name 
saying that: It is I, and will deceive many. 
\VS{7} But whenever you hear 
wars and rumors of wars, Do not be being frightened; it must come to pass, 
but the end is not yet. 
\VS{8} For nation will rise against nation and 
kingdom against kingdom, there will be earthquakes in diverse places, there 
will be famines and 
disorders\footnote{or ``commotions,'' ``tumults,'' 
``troubles'' }\ \footnote{``and disorders'' \koine{}W \vulgate{}; omit: B}. These are the beginning of birth-pains. 

\subsubsection{Persecution of Disciples}
\VS{9} But you be looking to yourselves. For they 
will deliver you up to the council and you will be beaten in the synagogues 
and be stood before governors and kings because of me as [a] witness to them. 
\VS{10} And to all the nations is it first necessary [that] the gospel be 
preached. 
\VS{11} And whenever they may bring you being delivered up, do not 
concern yourself beforehand what you will say, but whatever be given to you 
in that hour, this be speaking; for the [one] speaking is not you but the Holy 
Spirit. 
\VS{12} And brother will deliver up brother to death and father 
child, and children will rise up against parents and will kill them. 
\VS{13} 
And you will be hated by all because of my name; but the [one] having endured to 
the end, this [one] will be saved. 

\subsubsection{The Abomination of Desolation}
\VS{14} But when you see the abomination of 
desecration\footnote{or ``desolation''} having stood where it must not, the 
[one] reading, let him understand\fnImperative{}, then let those in Judea 
be fleeing\fnImperative{} into the mountains. 
\VS{15} Let him on the 
roof not come down\fnImperative{} nor enter in to take anything from 
his house. 
\VS{16} And let the [one] in the field not turn 
back\fnImperative{} to take his garments. 
\VS{17} But woe to the 
pregnant and those giving suck in those days. 
\VS{18} But be praying in 
order that it not come to pass in winter, 
\VS{19} for those days will be [a] 
tribulation such as has not come to pass from the beginning of creation 
that God created until now and will \negd{not} [again] come to pass. 
\VS{20} And except [the] Lord shorten\footnote{or ``curtail''} the days, all flesh would 
not be saved. But because of the chosen whom he chose he 
shortened\footnote{or ``curtailed''} the days. 
\VS{21} And then if any say 
to you: Behold there is the Christ, or: Behold here, be not believing. 
\VS{22} But false Christs and false prophets will arise and will make signs 
and wonders in order to be deceiving if possible, the chosen. 
\VS{23} But you be looking; I have foretold you everything. 

\subsubsection{The Arrival of the Son of Man}
\VS{24} But in those days 
after that tribulation 
\begin{verse}
the sun will be darkened, \\
and the moon will not give its radiance, \\
\VS{25} And the stars will be falling out of heaven \\
and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. 
\footnote{Is. 13:10; 34:4; Joel 2:10}
\end{verse}
\VS{26} And they will see the son of 
man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. 
\VS{27} And then he 
will send the angels and they will gather his chosen out of the four winds 
from the edge of [the] earth to the edge of heaven. 

\subsubsection{The Parable of the Fig Tree}
\VS{28} But from the fig tree 
learn the parable, When its branches have already become tender and have put 
forth its leaves, you know that summer is at hand. 
\VS{29} Thus you also, 
when you see these [things] come to pass, know that it is at hand upon the doors. 
\VS{30} Truly I say to you that this\footnote{can mean ``the 
aforementioned''} generation does \negd{not} pass away until all these 
[things] come to pass. 
\VS{31} Heaven and [the] earth will pass away, but my words will 
not pass away. 

\subsubsection{Be Ready!}
\VS{32} Concerning that day or that hour no one knows, 
neither the angels in heaven nor the son, except the father. 
\VS{33} Be looking, be being alert and be praying,
%\footnote{``and disorders'' \koine W \vulgate{} ; omit: B}
for you know not when is the time\fnKairos{}. 
\VS{34} As [a] man away on [a] 
journey having left his house and having given to his slaves the authority, 
[and] to each his work, also commanded the doorkeeper that he should be being 
watchful. 
\VS{35} Be being watchful therefore, for you know not when the 
lord of the house comes, either late or [at] midnight or [at] the crowing of the 
cock or early, 
\VS{36} lest having come suddenly he find you sleeping. 
\VS{37} But what I say to you, I say to all: Be being watchful.
