Matthew 24:15-21 New English Translation (NET)

15. “So when you see the abomination of desolation – spoken about by Daniel the prophet – standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),

16. then those in Judea must flee to the mountains.

17. The one on the roof must not come down to take anything out of his house,

18. and the one in the field must not turn back to get his cloak.

19. Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing their babies in those days!

20. Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath.

21. For then there will be great suffering unlike anything that has happened from the beginning of the world until now, or ever will happen.
