Matthew 24:30-51

Geneva(i) 30 And then shall appeare the signe of the Sonne of man in heauen: and then shall all the kinreds of the earth mourne, and they shall see the Sonne of man come in the cloudes of heauen with power and great glorie. 31 And he shall send his Angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect, from the foure windes, and from the one ende of the heauens vnto the other. 32 Now learne the parable of the figge tree: when her bough is yet tender, and it putteth foorth leaues, ye knowe that sommer is neere. 33 So likewise ye, when ye see all these things, know that the kingdom of God is neere, eue at ye doores. 34 Verely I say vnto you, this generation shall not passe, till all these things be done. 35 Heauen and earth shall passe away: but my wordes shall not passe away. 36 But of that day and houre knoweth no man, no not the Angels of heauen, but my father only. 37 But as the dayes of Noe were, so likewise shall the comming of the Sonne of man be. 38 For as in the dayes before the flood, they did eate and drinke, marrie, and giue in mariage, vnto the day that Noe entred into the Arke, 39 And knewe nothing, till the flood came, and tooke them all away, so shall also the comming of the Sonne of man be. 40 Then two shall be in the fieldes, the one shalbe receiued, and the other shalbe refused. 41 Two women shalbe grinding at ye mill: the one shalbe receiued, and the other shalbe refused. 42 Watch therefore: for ye knowe not what houre your master will come. 43 Of this be sure, that if the good man of the house knewe at what watch the thiefe would come, he woulde surely watch, and not suffer his house to be digged through. 44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in the houre that ye thinke not, will the Sonne of man come. 45 Who then is a faithfull seruaunt and wise, whom his master hath made ruler ouer his household, to giue them meate in season? 46 Blessed is that seruant, whom his master when he commeth, shall finde so doing. 47 Verely I say vnto you, he shall make him ruler ouer all his goods. 48 But if that euil seruant shall say in his heart, My master doth deferre his comming, 49 And begin to smite his fellowes, and to eate, and to drinke with the drunken, 50 That seruaunts master will come in a day, when he looketh not for him, and in an houre that he is not ware of, 51 And will cut him off, and giue him his portion with hypocrites: there shalbe weeping, and gnashing of teeth.
