Luke 21:8–12 · Berean Standard Bible

8 Jesus answered, “See to it that you are not deceived. For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them.

9 When you hear of wars and rebellions, do not be alarmed. These things must happen first, but the end is not imminent.”

10 Then He told them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

11 There will be great earthquakes, famines, and pestilences in various places, along with fearful sights and great signs from heaven.

12 But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. On account of My name they will deliver you to the synagogues and prisons, and they will bring you before kings and governors.
