25 "And there will be signs in the sun and the moon and the stars; and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity at the roar of the sea and the billows;
26 "men lifeless through fear, and foreboding of that which is about to come upon the habitable earth. For the powers of the heavens shall be shaken,
27 "and then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud, with power and great glory.
28 "But when these things begin to come to pass, look up, lift your heads! for your redemption is drawing near."
