²⁷ For as the lightning comes forth from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

²⁸ For wherever the carcass is, there will the vultures{or, eagles} be gathered together.

²⁹ But immediately after the oppression of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;

³⁰ and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.
