Coptic New Testament
1As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, “Teacher, look at the magnificent stones and buildings!”
1ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲉⲣⲫⲉⲓ ⲡⲉϫⲉ ⲟⲩⲁⲓ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥⲙⲁⲑⲏⲧⲏⲥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲫⲣⲉϥϯ⳿ⲥⲃⲱ ⳿ⲭⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ϩⲁⲛⲁϣ ⳿ⲛⲣⲏϯ ⲛⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ⳿ⲱⲛⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϩⲁⲛⲕⲱⲧ ⳿ⲛⲁϣ ⳿ⲛⲣⲏϯ.
2“Do you see all these great buildings?” Jesus replied. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”
2ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϫⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲭⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲁⲓⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲭⲁ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲱⲛⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉⲛⲁⲃⲟⲗϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲁⲛ.
3While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately,

7When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.

8Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, as well as famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.

9So be on your guard. You will be delivered over to the councils and beaten in the synagogues. On My account you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them.

11But when they arrest you and hand you over, do not worry beforehand what to say. Instead, speak whatever you are given at that time, for it will not be you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.

12Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rise against their parents and have them put to death.

14So when you see the abomination of desolation standing where it should not be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

20If the Lord had not cut short those days, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, whom He has chosen, He has cut them short.
