Mark 13:8 in Context — Mark 13

6 Porque vendrán muchos en mi nombre, diciendo: Yo soy [el Cristo]; y engañarán á muchos.

7 Mas cuando oyereis de guerras y de rumores de guerras no os turbéis, porque conviene hacerse [así]; mas aun no [será] el fin.

8 Porque se levantará nación contra nación, y reino contra reino; y habrá terremotos en muchos lugares, y habrá hambres y alborotos; principios de dolores [serán] estos.

9 Mas vosotros mirad por vosotros: porque os entregarán en los concilios, y en sinagogas seréis azotados: y delante de presidentes y de reyes seréis llamados por causa de mí, en testimonio á ellos.

10 Y á todas las gentes conviene que el evangelio sea predicado antes.
