³² "Now from the fig tree learn this parable. When its branch has now become tender, and puts forth its leaves, you know that the summer is near.

³³ Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

³⁵ Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
