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

20 Priez pour que votre fuite n’arrive pas en hiver, ni un jour desabbat.

21 Car alors, la détresse sera si grande qu’il n’y en a point eu de pareille depuis le commencement du monde jusqu’à présent, et qu’il n’y en aura jamais.

22 Et, si ces jours n’étaient abrégés, personne ne serait sauvé; mais, à cause des élus, ces jours seront abrégés.

23 Si quelqu’un vous dit alors:Le Christ est ici, ou: Il est là, ne le croyez pas.
