< Mark 13 >

1 As he went out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Teacher, see what kind of stones and what kind of buildings!”
Καὶ ἐκπορευομένου αὐτοῦ ἐκ τοῦ ἱεροῦ λέγει αὐτῷ εἷς τῶν μαθητῶν αὐτοῦ· Διδάσκαλε, ἴδε ποταποὶ λίθοι καὶ ποταπαὶ οἰκοδομαί.
2 Jesus said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone on another, which will not be thrown down.”
καὶ ὁ ⸀Ἰησοῦςεἶπεν αὐτῷ· Βλέπεις ταύτας τὰς μεγάλας οἰκοδομάς; οὐ μὴ ἀφεθῇ ⸀ὧδελίθος ἐπὶ ⸀λίθονὃς οὐ μὴ καταλυθῇ.
3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked him privately,
Καὶ καθημένου αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ Ὄρος τῶν Ἐλαιῶν κατέναντι τοῦ ἱεροῦ ⸀ἐπηρώτααὐτὸν κατʼ ἰδίαν Πέτρος καὶ Ἰάκωβος καὶ Ἰωάννης καὶ Ἀνδρέας·
4 “Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are all about to be fulfilled?”
Εἰπὸν ἡμῖν πότε ταῦτα ἔσται, καὶ τί τὸ σημεῖον ὅταν μέλλῃ ⸂ταῦτα συντελεῖσθαι πάντα.
5 Jesus, answering, began to tell them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.
ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς ⸂ἤρξατο λέγειν αὐτοῖς· Βλέπετε μή τις ὑμᾶς πλανήσῃ·
6 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and will lead many astray.
⸀πολλοὶἐλεύσονται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου λέγοντες ὅτι Ἐγώ εἰμι, καὶ πολλοὺς πλανήσουσιν.
7 “When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled. For those must happen, but the end is not yet.
ὅταν δὲ ⸀ἀκούσητεπολέμους καὶ ἀκοὰς πολέμων, μὴ θροεῖσθε· ⸀δεῖγενέσθαι, ἀλλʼ οὔπω τὸ τέλος.
8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places. There will be famines and troubles. These things are the beginning of birth pains.
ἐγερθήσεται γὰρ ἔθνος ἐπʼ ἔθνος καὶ βασιλεία ἐπὶ βασιλείαν, ⸀ἔσονταισεισμοὶ κατὰ τόπους, ⸁ἔσονται⸀λιμοί ⸀ἀρχὴὠδίνων ταῦτα.
9 “But watch yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils. You will be beaten in synagogues. You will stand before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them.
βλέπετε δὲ ὑμεῖς ἑαυτούς· ⸀παραδώσουσινὑμᾶς εἰς συνέδρια καὶ εἰς συναγωγὰς δαρήσεσθε καὶ ἐπὶ ἡγεμόνων καὶ βασιλέων σταθήσεσθε ἕνεκεν ἐμοῦ εἰς μαρτύριον αὐτοῖς.
10 The Good News must first be preached to all the nations.
καὶ εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη ⸂πρῶτον δεῖ κηρυχθῆναι τὸ εὐαγγέλιον.
11 When they lead you away and deliver you up, do not be anxious beforehand or premeditate what you will say, but say whatever will be given you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.
⸂καὶ ὅταν ⸀ἄγωσινὑμᾶς παραδιδόντες, μὴ προμεριμνᾶτε τί ⸀λαλήσητε ἀλλʼ ὃ ἐὰν δοθῇ ὑμῖν ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ὥρᾳ τοῦτο λαλεῖτε, οὐ γάρ ἐστε ὑμεῖς οἱ λαλοῦντες ἀλλὰ τὸ πνεῦμα τὸ ἅγιον.
12 “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.
⸂καὶ παραδώσει ἀδελφὸς ἀδελφὸν εἰς θάνατον καὶ πατὴρ τέκνον, καὶ ἐπαναστήσονται τέκνα ἐπὶ γονεῖς καὶ θανατώσουσιν αὐτούς·
13 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.
καὶ ἔσεσθε μισούμενοι ὑπὸ πάντων διὰ τὸ ὄνομά μου. ὁ δὲ ὑπομείνας εἰς τέλος οὗτος σωθήσεται.
14 “But when you see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not” (let the reader understand), “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains,
Ὅταν δὲ ἴδητε τὸ βδέλυγμα τῆς ἐρημώσεως ⸀ἑστηκόταὅπου οὐ δεῖ, ὁ ἀναγινώσκων νοείτω, τότε οἱ ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ φευγέτωσαν εἰς τὰ ὄρη,
15 and let him who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter in, to take anything out of his house.
⸀ὁἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος μὴ ⸀καταβάτωμηδὲ εἰσελθάτω ⸂τι ἆραι ἐκ τῆς οἰκίας αὐτοῦ,
16 Let him who is in the field not return back to take his cloak.
καὶ ὁ εἰς τὸν ⸀ἀγρὸνμὴ ἐπιστρεψάτω εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω ἆραι τὸ ἱμάτιον αὐτοῦ.
17 But woe to those who are with child and to those who nurse babies in those days!
οὐαὶ δὲ ταῖς ἐν γαστρὶ ἐχούσαις καὶ ταῖς θηλαζούσαις ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις.
18 Pray that your flight will not be in the winter.
προσεύχεσθε δὲ ἵνα μὴ ⸀γένηταιχειμῶνος·
19 For in those days there will be oppression, such as there has not been the like from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be.
ἔσονται γὰρ αἱ ἡμέραι ἐκεῖναι θλῖψις οἵα οὐ γέγονεν τοιαύτη ἀπʼ ἀρχῆς κτίσεως ⸀ἣνἔκτισεν ὁ θεὸς ἕως τοῦ νῦν καὶ οὐ μὴ γένηται.
20 Unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would have been saved; but for the sake of the chosen ones, whom he picked out, he shortened the days.
καὶ εἰ μὴ ⸂ἐκολόβωσεν κύριος τὰς ἡμέρας, οὐκ ἂν ἐσώθη πᾶσα σάρξ. ἀλλὰ διὰ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς οὓς ἐξελέξατο ἐκολόβωσεν τὰς ἡμέρας.
21 Then if anyone tells you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ do not believe it.
⸀καὶτότε ἐάν τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ· ⸀Ἴδεὧδε ὁ ⸀χριστός ⸁Ἴδεἐκεῖ, μὴ πιστεύετε·
22 For false christs and false prophets will arise and will show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
ἐγερθήσονται γὰρ ψευδόχριστοι καὶ ψευδοπροφῆται καὶ δώσουσιν σημεῖα καὶ τέρατα πρὸς τὸ ἀποπλανᾶν εἰ ⸀δυνατὸντοὺς ἐκλεκτούς·
23 But you watch. “Behold, I have told you all things beforehand.
ὑμεῖς δὲ βλέπετε· ⸀προείρηκαὑμῖν πάντα.
24 But in those days, after that oppression, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light,
Ἀλλὰ ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις μετὰ τὴν θλῖψιν ἐκείνην ὁ ἥλιος σκοτισθήσεται, καὶ ἡ σελήνη οὐ δώσει τὸ φέγγος αὐτῆς,
25 the stars will be falling from the sky, and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken.
καὶ οἱ ἀστέρες ⸂ἔσονται ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ πίπτοντες, καὶ αἱ δυνάμεις αἱ ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς σαλευθήσονται.
26 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.
καὶ τότε ὄψονται τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐρχόμενον ἐν νεφέλαις μετὰ δυνάμεως πολλῆς καὶ δόξης·
27 Then he will send out his angels, and will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the sky.
καὶ τότε ἀποστελεῖ τοὺς ⸀ἀγγέλουςκαὶ ἐπισυνάξει τοὺς ⸀ἐκλεκτοὺςἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων ἀπʼ ἄκρου γῆς ἕως ἄκρου οὐρανοῦ.
28 “Now from the fig tree, learn this parable. When the branch has now become tender and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near;
Ἀπὸ δὲ τῆς συκῆς μάθετε τὴν παραβολήν· ὅταν ⸂ἤδη ὁ κλάδος αὐτῆς ἁπαλὸς γένηται καὶ ἐκφύῃ τὰ φύλλα, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγὺς τὸ θέρος ἐστίν·
29 even so you also, when you see these things coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors.
οὕτως καὶ ὑμεῖς, ὅταν ⸂ἴδητε ταῦτα γινόμενα, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγύς ἐστιν ἐπὶ θύραις.
30 Most certainly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things happen.
ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οὐ μὴ παρέλθῃ ἡ γενεὰ αὕτη μέχρις οὗ ⸂ταῦτα πάντα γένηται.
31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
ὁ οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ γῆ ⸀παρελεύσονται οἱ δὲ λόγοι μου οὐ ⸀μὴ⸁παρελεύσονται
32 “But of that day or that hour no one knows—not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
Περὶ δὲ τῆςἡμέρας ἐκείνης ἢ ⸀τῆς ὥρας οὐδεὶς οἶδεν, οὐδὲ οἱ ἄγγελοι ⸀ἐνοὐρανῷ οὐδὲ ὁ υἱός, εἰ μὴ ὁ πατήρ.
33 Watch, keep alert, and pray; for you do not know when the time is.
βλέπετε ⸀ἀγρυπνεῖτε οὐκ οἴδατε γὰρ πότε ὁ καιρός ἐστιν·
34 “It is like a man traveling to another country, having left his house and given authority to his servants, and to each one his work, and also commanded the doorkeeper to keep watch.
ὡς ἄνθρωπος ἀπόδημος ἀφεὶς τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ δοὺς τοῖς δούλοις αὐτοῦ τὴν ἐξουσίαν, ⸀ἑκάστῳτὸ ἔργον αὐτοῦ, καὶ τῷ θυρωρῷ ἐνετείλατο ἵνα γρηγορῇ.
35 Watch therefore, for you do not know when the lord of the house is coming—whether at evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning;
γρηγορεῖτε οὖν, οὐκ οἴδατε γὰρ πότε ὁ κύριος τῆς οἰκίας ἔρχεται, ⸀ἢὀψὲ ἢ ⸀μεσονύκτιονἢ ἀλεκτοροφωνίας ἢ πρωΐ,
36 lest, coming suddenly, he might find you sleeping.
μὴ ἐλθὼν ἐξαίφνης εὕρῃ ὑμᾶς καθεύδοντας·
37 What I tell you, I tell all: Watch!”
⸀ὃδὲ ὑμῖν λέγω πᾶσιν λέγω· γρηγορεῖτε.
