Matthew 24:21-23

Living Bible

²¹ For there will be persecution such as the world has never before seen in all its history and will never see again.

²² “In fact, unless those days are shortened, all mankind will perish. But they will be shortened for the sake of God’s chosen people.^[a]

²³ “Then if anyone tells you, ‘The Messiah has arrived at such and such a place, or has appeared here or there,’ don’t believe it.
