KJV ¹ Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his disciples,

KJV ² Saying The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:

KJV ³ All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.

KJV ⁴ For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers.

KJV ⁵ But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,

KJV ⁶ And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,

KJV ⁷ And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.

KJV ⁸ But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.

KJV ⁹ And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.

KJV ¹⁰ Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.

KJV ¹¹ But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant.

KJV ¹² And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

KJV ¹³ But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.

KJV ¹⁴ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.

KJV ¹⁵ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.

KJV ¹⁶ Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!

KJV ¹⁷ Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?

KJV ¹⁸ And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.

KJV ¹⁹ Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?

KJV ²⁰ Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.

KJV ²¹ And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.

KJV ²² And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.

KJV ²³ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

KJV ²⁴ Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.

KJV ²⁵ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.

KJV ²⁶ Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.

KJV ²⁷ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.

KJV ²⁸ Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

KJV ²⁹ Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,

KJV ³⁰ And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.

KJV ³¹ Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.

KJV ³² Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.

KJV ³³ Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

KJV ³⁴ Wherefore, behold, I send unto you prophets, and wise men, and scribes: and some of them ye shall kill and crucify; and some of them shall ye scourge in your synagogues, and persecute them from city to city:

KJV ³⁵ That upon you may come all the righteous blood shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias, whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.

KJV ³⁶ Verily I say unto you, All these things shall come upon this generation.

KJV ³⁷ O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!

KJV ³⁸ Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.

KJV ³⁹ For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

KJV ¹ And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

KJV ² And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

KJV ³ And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

KJV ⁴ And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

KJV ⁵ For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

KJV ⁶ And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

KJV ⁷ For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

KJV ⁸ All these are the beginning of sorrows.

KJV ⁹ Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

KJV ¹⁰ And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

KJV ¹¹ And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

KJV ¹² And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

KJV ¹³ But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

KJV ¹⁴ And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

KJV ¹⁵ When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

KJV ¹⁶ Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

KJV ¹⁷ Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

KJV ¹⁸ Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

KJV ¹⁹ And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

KJV ²⁰ But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

KJV ²¹ For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

KJV ²² And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

KJV ²³ Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.

KJV ²⁴ For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

KJV ²⁵ Behold, I have told you before.

KJV ²⁶ Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

KJV ²⁷ For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

KJV ²⁸ For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

KJV ²⁹ Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

KJV ³⁰ And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

KJV ³¹ And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

KJV ³² Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

KJV ³³ So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

KJV ³⁴ Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

KJV ³⁵ Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

KJV ³⁶ But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

KJV ³⁷ But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

KJV ³⁸ For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

KJV ³⁹ And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

KJV ⁴⁰ Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

KJV ⁴¹ Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

KJV ⁴² Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

KJV ⁴³ But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

KJV ⁴⁴ Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

KJV ⁴⁵ Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

KJV ⁴⁶ Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

KJV ⁴⁷ Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

KJV ⁴⁸ But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

KJV ⁴⁹ And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

KJV ⁵⁰ The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

KJV ⁵¹ And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
