Revelation 20:1-4, 11—21:2
Psalm 84:3, 4, 5-6a, 8a
my soul longeth and fainteth for the courts of the Lord. My heart and my flesh have rejoiced in the living God.For the sparrow hath found herself a house, and the turtle a nest for herself where she may lay her young ones: Thy altars, O Lord of hosts, my king and my God.Blessed are they that dwell in thy house, O Lord: they shall praise thee for ever and ever.Blessed is the man whose help is from thee: in his heart he hath disposed to ascend by steps,For the lawgiver shall give a blessing, they shall go from virtue to virtue: the God of gods shall be seen in Sion.
Luke 21:29-33
And he spoke to them in a similitude. See the fig tree, and all the trees:When they now shoot forth their fruit, you know that summer is nigh;So you also, when you shall see these things come to pass, know that the kingdom of God is at hand.Amen, I say to you, this generation shall not pass away, till all things be fulfilled.Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
