CHAP. 5.
But of times, and seasons, brethren, you have no need that I write unto you. 2 For ye your selves know perfectly, that the day of the Lord shall come, as a thief in the night. 3 For when they shall say, peace and safety, then shall come upon them sudden destruction, as the travail upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape.
BVt of times, and seasons, brethren, you haue no neede that I write vnto you. 2 For yee your selues know perfectly, that the daie of the Lord shal come, as a theefe in the night. 3 For when they shal say, peace and safetie, then shal come vpon them sodaine destruction, as the trauaile vpon a woman with child, and they shal not escape.
When the Disciples came unto Christ a part, and said, Tell us 1when these things shall be, and what sign shall be of thy coming, and of the end of the world, he answered, Take heed least any 2man deceive you. It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the father hath put in his own power. For of that day and hour 3knoweth no man, no, not the Angels which are in heaven, neither the Son himself, save the Father. vere not your spirit in vain. Seek not for that you may not know, you shall not be able to find it.
