|
|
3. He said, "I tell you truly, this poor widow put in more than all the rest;
|
3. And G2532 he said G2036 , Of a truth G230 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , that G3754 this G3778 poor G4434 widow G5503 hath cast in G906 more G4119 than they all G3956 :
|
|
4. for those others have all made offerings from their surplus wealth, but she, from her poverty, has offered her whole livelihood."
|
4. For G1063 all G537 these G3778 have of G1537 their G846 abundance G4052 cast in G906 unto G1519 the G3588 offerings G1435 of God G2316 : but G1161 she G3778 of G1537 her G848 penury G5303 hath cast in G906 all G537 the G3588 living G979 that G3739 she had G2192 .

|
|
6. "All that you see here-- the days will come when there will not be left a stone upon another stone that will not be thrown down."
|
6. As for these things G5023 which G3739 ye behold G2334 , the days G2250 will come G2064 , in G1722 the which G3739 there shall not G3756 be left G863 one stone upon another G3037 G1909 G3037 , that G3739 shall not G3756 be thrown down G2647 .
|
|
7. Then they asked him, "Teacher, when will this happen? And what sign will there be when all these things are about to happen?"
|
7. And G1161 they asked G1905 him G846 , saying G3004 , Master G1320 , but when G4219 shall G3767 these things G5023 be G2071 ? and G2532 what G5101 sign G4592 will there be when G3752 these things G5023 shall G3195 come to pass G1096 ?
|
|
8. He answered, "See that you not be deceived, for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he,' and 'The time has come.' Do not follow them!
|
8. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 , Take heed G991 that ye be not G3361 deceived G4105 : for G1063 many G4183 shall come G2064 in G1909 my G3450 name G3686 , saying G3004 , I G1473 am G1510 Christ ; and G2532 the G3588 time G2540 draweth near G1448 : go G4198 ye not G3361 therefore G3767 after G3694 them G846 .
|
|
9. When you hear of wars and insurrections, do not be terrified; for such things must happen first, but it will not immediately be the end."
|
9. But G1161 when G3752 ye shall hear G191 of wars G4171 and G2532 commotions G181 , be not G3361 terrified G4422 : for G1063 these things G5023 must G1163 first G4412 come to pass G1096 ; but G235 the G3588 end G5056 is not G3756 by and by G2112 .
|
|
10. Then he said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
|
10. Then G5119 said G3004 he unto them G846 , Nation G1484 shall rise G1453 against G1909 nation G1484 , and G2532 kingdom G932 against G1909 kingdom G932 :
|
|
11. There will be powerful earthquakes, famines, and plagues from place to place; and awesome sights and mighty signs will come from the sky.
|
11. And G5037 great G3173 earthquakes G4578 shall be G2071 in divers places G2596 G5117 , and G2532 famines G3042 , and G2532 pestilences G3061 ; and G5037 fearful sights G5400 and G2532 great G3173 signs G4592 shall there be G2071 from G575 heaven G3772 .
|
|
12. "Before all this happens, however, they will seize and persecute you, they will hand you over to the synagogues and to prisons, and they will have you led before kings and governors because of my name.
|
12. But G1161 before G4253 all G537 these G5130 , they shall lay G1911 their G848 hands G5495 on G1909 you G5209 , and G2532 persecute G1377 you, delivering you up G3860 to G1519 the synagogues G4864 , and G2532 into prisons G5438 , being brought G71 before G1909 kings G935 and G2532 rulers G2232 for my name's sake G1752 G3450 G3686 .

|
13. It will lead to your giving testimony.
|
13. And G1161 it shall turn G576 to you G5213 for G1519 a testimony G3142 .
|
|

|
14. Settle G5087 it therefore G3767 in G1519 your G5216 hearts G2588 , not G3361 to meditate before G4304 what ye shall answer G626 :
|
|
15. for I myself shall give you a wisdom in speaking that all your adversaries will be powerless to resist or refute.
|
15. For G1063 I G1473 will give G1325 you G5213 a mouth G4750 and G2532 wisdom G4678 , which G3739 all G3956 your G5213 adversaries G480 shall not G3756 be able G1410 to gainsay G471 nor G3761 resist G436 .
|
|

|
16. And G1161 ye shall be betrayed G3860 both G2532 by G5259 parents G1118 , and G2532 brethren G80 , and G2532 kinsfolk G4773 , and G2532 friends G5384 ; and G2532 some of G1537 you G5216 shall they cause to be put to death G2289 .
|
|
17. You will be hated by all because of my name,
|
17. And G2532 ye shall be G2071 hated G3404 of G5259 all G3956 men for my name's sake G1223 G3450 G3686 .
|
|
18. but not a hair on your head will be destroyed.
|
18. But G2532 there shall not G3364 a hair G2359 of G1537 your G5216 head G2776 perish G622 .
|
|
19. By your perseverance you will secure your lives.
|
19. In G1722 your G5216 patience G5281 possess G2932 ye your G5216 souls G5590 .
|
|
20. "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, know that its desolation is at hand.
|
20. And G1161 when G3752 ye shall see G1492 Jerusalem G2419 compassed G2944 with G5259 armies G4760 , then G5119 know G1097 that G3754 the G3588 desolation G2050 thereof G846 is nigh G1448 .
|
|
21. Then those in Judea must flee to the mountains. Let those within the city escape from it, and let those in the countryside not enter the city,
|
21. Then G5119 let them G3588 which are in G1722 Judea G2449 flee G5343 to G1519 the G3588 mountains G3735 ; and G2532 let them G3588 which are in G1722 the midst G3319 of it G848 depart out G1633 ; and G2532 let not G3361 them G3588 that are in G1722 the G3588 countries G5561 enter G1525 thereinto G1519 G846 .
|
|
22. for these days are the time of punishment when all the scriptures are fulfilled.
|
22. For G3754 these G3778 be G1526 the days G2250 of vengeance G1557 , that all things G3956 which are written G1125 may be fulfilled G4137 .
|
|
23. Woe to pregnant women and nursing mothers in those days, for a terrible calamity will come upon the earth and a wrathful judgment upon this people.
|
23. But G1161 woe G3759 unto them that are with child G2192 G1722 G1064 , and G2532 to them that give suck G2337 , in G1722 those G1565 days G2250 ! for G1063 there shall be G2071 great G3173 distress G318 in G1909 the G3588 land G1093 , and G2532 wrath G3709 upon G1722 this G5129 people G2992 .
|
|

|
24.

|
|
25. "There will be signs in the sun, the moon, and the stars, and on earth nations will be in dismay, perplexed by the roaring of the sea and the waves.
|
25. And G2532 there shall be G2071 signs G4592 in G1722 the sun G2246 , and G2532 in the moon G4582 , and G2532 in the stars G798 ; and G2532 upon G1909 the G3588 earth G1093 distress G4928 of nations G1484 , with G1722 perplexity G640 ; the sea G2281 and G2532 the waves G4535 roaring G2278 ;
|
|
26. People will die of fright in anticipation of what is coming upon the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
|
26. Men G444 's hearts failing them G674 for G575 fear G5401 , and G2532 for looking after G4329 those things which are coming on G1904 the G3588 earth G3625 : for G1063 the G3588 powers G1411 of heaven G3772 shall be shaken G4531 .
|
|
27. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
|
27. And G2532 then G5119 shall they see G3700 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 coming G2064 in G1722 a cloud G3507 with G3326 power G1411 and G2532 great G4183 glory G1391 .
|
|
28. But when these signs begin to happen, stand erect and raise your heads because your redemption is at hand."
|
28. And G1161 when these things G5130 begin G756 to come to pass G1096 , then look up G352 , and G2532 lift up G1869 your G5216 heads G2776 ; for G1360 your G5216 redemption G629 draweth nigh G1448 .
|
|
29. He taught them a lesson. "Consider the fig tree and all the other trees.
|
29. And G2532 he spake G2036 to them G846 a parable G3850 ; Behold G1492 the G3588 fig tree G4808 , and G2532 all G3956 the G3588 trees G1186 ;
|
|
30. When their buds burst open, you see for yourselves and know that summer is now near;
|
30. When G3752 they now G2235 shoot forth G4261 , ye see G991 and know G1097 of G575 your own selves G1438 that G3754 summer G2330 is G2076 now G2235 nigh at hand G1451 .
|
|
31. in the same way, when you see these things happening, know that the kingdom of God is near.
|
31. So G2532 likewise G3779 ye G5210 , when G3752 ye see G1492 these things G5023 come to pass G1096 , know G1097 ye that G3754 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 is G2076 nigh at hand G1451 .
|
|
32. Amen, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have taken place.
|
32. Verily G281 I say G3004 unto you G5213 G3754 , This G3778 generation G1074 shall not G3364 pass away G3928 , till G2193 G302 all G3956 be fulfilled G1096 .
|
|
33. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
|
33. Heaven G3772 and G2532 earth G1093 shall pass away G3928 : but G1161 my G3450 words G3056 shall not G3364 pass away G3928 .
|
|
34. "Beware that your hearts do not become drowsy from carousing and drunkenness and the anxieties of daily life, and that day catch you by surprise
|
34. And G1161 take heed G4337 to yourselves G1438 , lest at any time G3379 your G5216 hearts G2588 be overcharged G925 with G1722 surfeiting G2897 , and G2532 drunkenness G3178 , and G2532 cares G3308 of this life G982 , and G2532 so that G1565 day G2250 come G2186 upon G1909 you G5209 unawares G160 .
|
|
35. like a trap. For that day will assault everyone who lives on the face of the earth.
|
35. For G1063 as G5613 a snare G3803 shall it come G1904 on G1909 all G3956 them that dwell G2521 on G1909 the face G4383 of the G3588 whole G3956 earth G1093 .
|
|
36. Be vigilant at all times and pray that you have the strength to escape the tribulations that are imminent and to stand before the Son of Man."
|
36. Watch G69 ye therefore G3767 , and pray G1189 always G1722 G3956 G2540 , that G2443 ye may be accounted worthy G2661 to escape G1628 all G3956 these things G5023 that shall G3195 come to pass G1096 , and G2532 to stand G2476 before G1715 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 .

|
37. During the day, Jesus was teaching in the temple area, but at night he would leave and stay at the place called the Mount of Olives.
|

|
|
38. And all the people would get up early each morning to listen to him in the temple area.
|
38. And G2532 all G3956 the G3588 people G2992 came early in the morning G3719 to G4314 him G846 in G1722 the G3588 temple G2411 , for to hear G191 him G846 .
