Matthew 24:30: "And then the sign (of) the Son (of) Man will-appear in (the) heaven. And at-that-time all the tribes (of) the earth will-beat-their-breasts. And they-will-see the Son (of) man coming on the clouds (of) heaven with power and great GLORY."

1 Peter 5:1: "Therefore I-exhort the elders among you, (I) the fellow-elder and witness (of) the sufferings (of) Christ, the sharer also (of) the GLORY about-to be-revealed:"



Matthew 24:17: "Let the (one) upon the housetop not go-down to-take the (things) out-of his house."

Matthew 24:18: "And let the (one) in the field not turn behind to-take his cloak."

A similar account in Luke reads: 

Luke 17:30: "It-will-be the same (way) on that day the Son (of) Man IS-REVEALED."

Luke 17:31: "On that day, let (he) who will-be on the housetop and his goods in the house not go-down to-take them. And let the (one) in (a) field likewise not turn-back to the (things) behind."

1 Peter 5:1: "Therefore I-exhort the elders among you, (I) the fellow-elder and witness (of) the sufferings (of) Christ, the sharer also (of) the glory about-to BE-REVEALED:"



Matthew 24:27: "For just-as the lightning comes-out from (the) east and is-appearing (phainetai 5316 in Greek) as-far-as (the) west, so will-be the coming (of) the Son (of) Man."

1 Peter 5:4: "And the Chief-shepherd having-appeared (phanerōthentos 5319 in Greek), you-will-receive the unfading crown (of) glory."

1 Peter 5:6: "Therefore humble (yourselves) under the mighty hand (of) God in-order-that He-may-exalt you at (the) proper-time,"

1 Peter 5:7: "having-cast all your ANXIETY (merimnan 3308 in Greek) upon Him, because He-is-concerned about you."

1 Peter 5:8: "Be-sober, keep-watch. Your adversary the devil is-walking-around like (a) roaring lion, seeking someone to-devour —"
