28 “And learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near.
29 “So you also, when you see these taking place, know that it is near, at the door.
30 “Truly, I say to you, this generation shall by no means pass away till all this takes place.
31 “The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but My words shall by no means pass away.
32 “But concerning that day and the hour no one knows, not even the messengers in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
33 “Take heed, watch and pray, for you do not know when the time is –
34 as a man going abroad, having left his house and given authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.
