Coptic New Testament
1As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples came up to Him to point out its buildings.
1ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲛⲁϥⲙⲟϣⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩ⳿ⲓ ϩⲁⲣⲟϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉⲩⲧⲁⲙⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ.
2“Do you see all these things?” He replied. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

3While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”

5For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.

6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.

7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8All these are the beginning of birth pains.

9Then they will deliver you over to be persecuted and killed, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.

10At that time many will fall away and will betray and hate one another,

15So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination of desolation,’ described by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand),

21For at that time there will be great tribulation, unmatched from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be seen again.

22If those days had not been cut short, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short.

23At that time, if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.

45Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time?
