  **Show the text**

  24 But in those days, after that oppression, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light,

  25 the stars will be falling from the sky, and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken.

  26 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.

  27 Then he will send out his angels, and will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the sky.

  28 “Now from the fig tree, learn this parable. When the branch has now become tender, and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near;

  29 even so you also, when you see these things coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors.

  30 Most certainly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things happen.

  31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
