But know this: that in the last days, grievous times will come
For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money
Boastful, arrogant, unthankful
Unholy, unforgiving, without self-control
Lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God
You will hear of wars and rumors of wars
See that you aren't troubled, for all this must happen
But the end isn't yet
For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom
There will be famines, plagues and earthquakes in various places
But all these things are the beginning of the birth pains
Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold
(Let no one deceive you in any way
For it will not be, unless the falling away comes first
And the man of sin is revealed)
The son of destruction
(He who opposes and exalts himself
Against all that is called God or that is worshiped
So that he sits as God in the temple of God
Setting himself up as God)
But you remain in the things
Which you have learned and have been assured of
Knowing from whom you've learned them
From infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures
Which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith
Which is in Messiah Yeshua
Messiah Yeshua
He will wipe away from them every tear from their eyes
Death will be no more
Neither will there be
Mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore
When the first things have passed away
I am the Alef and the Tav
The First and the Last
The Beginning and the End
Messiah Yeshua
