Mark 13:19

Read in context

Mark 13:17–21 · Berean Standard Bible

17 How miserable those days will be for pregnant and nursing mothers!

18 Pray that this will not occur in the winter.

19 For those will be days of tribulation unmatched from the beginning of God’s creation until now, and never to be seen again.

20 If the Lord had not cut short those days, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom He has chosen, He has cut them short.

21 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.
