14. But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation standing where it should not, (he that reads let him consider it,) then let those in Judaea flee to the mountains;
15. and him that is upon the housetop not come down into the house, nor enter into it to take away anything out of his house;
16. and him that is in the field not return back to take his garment.
17. But woe to those that are with child and to those that give suck in those days!
18. And pray that it may not be in winter time;
19. for those days shall be distress such as there has not been the like since the beginning of creation which God created, until now, and never shall be;
20. and if the Lord had not cut short those days, no flesh should have been saved; but on account of the elect whom he has chosen, he has cut short those days.
