6 Car plusieurs viendrontsous mon nom, disant; C’est moi. Et ils séduiront beaucoup de gens.

7 Quand vous entendrez parler de guerres et de bruits de guerres, ne soyez pas troublés, car il faut que ces choses arrivent. Mais ce ne sera pas encore la fin.

8 Une nation s’élèvera contre une nation, et un royaume contre un royaume; il y aura des tremblements de terre en divers lieux, il y aura des famines. Ce ne sera que le commencement des douleurs.

9 Prenez garde à vous-mêmes. On vous livrera aux tribunaux, et vous serez battus de verges dans les synagogues; vous comparaîtrez devant des gouverneurs et devant des rois, à cause de moi, pour leur servir de témoignage.

10 Il faut premièrement que la bonne nouvelle soit prêchée à toutes les nations.
