15 C’est pourquoi, lorsque vous verrez l’abomination de la désolation, dont a parlé le prophèteDaniel, établie en lieu saint, que celui qui lit fasse attention!

16 alors, que ceux qui seront en Judée fuient dans les montagnes;

17 que celui qui sera sur le toit ne descende pas pour prendre ce qui est dans sa maison;

18 et que celui qui sera dans les champs ne retourne pas en arrière pour prendre son manteau.

19 Malheur aux femmes qui seront enceintes et à celles qui allaiteront en ces jours-là!
