11, And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until . their fellow servants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled:

MATT. 24:16-22

16 Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains:

17 Let .him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his. clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give. suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the Sabbath day:

 

 

 

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

1 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bond man, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

16 And said to 'the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
