Luke 21
1 Looking around, Jesus watched rich people putting their gifts into the collection box.
αναβλεψας δε ειδεν τους βαλλοντας τα δωρα αυτων εις το γαζοφυλακιον πλουσιους
2 He also saw a very poor widow put in two small coins.
ειδεν δε και τινα χηραν πενιχραν βαλλουσαν εκει δυο λεπτα
3 “I tell you the truth,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the rest together.
και ειπεν αληθως λεγω υμιν οτι η χηρα η πτωχη αυτη πλειον παντων εβαλεν
4 All of them gave from their wealth what they had, but she gave from her poverty all she had to live on.”
απαντες γαρ ουτοι εκ του περισσευοντος αυτοις εβαλον εις τα δωρα του θεου αυτη δε εκ του υστερηματος αυτης απαντα τον βιον ον ειχεν εβαλεν
5 Some of those there were talking about the Temple, its fine stonework and the beautiful gifts that had been donated. But Jesus said,
και τινων λεγοντων περι του ιερου οτι λιθοις καλοις και αναθημασιν κεκοσμηται ειπεν
6 “Regarding these things you're looking at… The time is coming when not one stone will be left on another; everything will be destroyed!”
ταυτα α θεωρειτε ελευσονται ημεραι εν αις ουκ αφεθησεται λιθος επι λιθω ος ου καταλυθησεται
7 “Teacher, when will this happen?” they asked him. “What will be the sign that these things are about to happen?”
επηρωτησαν δε αυτον λεγοντες διδασκαλε ποτε ουν ταυτα εσται και τι το σημειον οταν μελλη ταυτα γινεσθαι
8 “Make sure you're not deceived,” Jesus warned them. “Many people will come claiming to be me, saying, ‘Here I am!’ and, ‘The time has come!’ but don't follow them.
ο δε ειπεν βλεπετε μη πλανηθητε πολλοι γαρ ελευσονται επι τω ονοματι μου λεγοντες οτι εγω ειμι και ο καιρος ηγγικεν μη ουν πορευθητε οπισω αυτων
9 When you hear of wars and revolutions, don't be frightened, because these things have to happen first, but the end won't come immediately.
οταν δε ακουσητε πολεμους και ακαταστασιας μη πτοηθητε δει γαρ ταυτα γενεσθαι πρωτον αλλ ουκ ευθεως το τελος
10 Nation will fight nation, and kingdom will fight kingdom,” he told them.
τοτε ελεγεν αυτοις εγερθησεται εθνος επι εθνος και βασιλεια επι βασιλειαν
11 “There will be severe earthquakes, famines, and epidemic diseases in many lands, and extraordinary signs in the sky that are terrifying.
σεισμοι τε μεγαλοι κατα τοπους και λιμοι και λοιμοι εσονται φοβητρα τε και σημεια απ ουρανου μεγαλα εσται
12 But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will drag you before synagogues and throw you into prison, and put you on trial before kings and governors on account of me.
προ δε τουτων απαντων επιβαλουσιν εφ υμας τας χειρας αυτων και διωξουσιν παραδιδοντες εις συναγωγας και φυλακας αγομενους επι βασιλεις και ηγεμονας ενεκεν του ονοματος μου
13 But this will provide you an opportunity to speak on my behalf before them.
αποβησεται δε υμιν εις μαρτυριον
14 So make up your mind beforehand not to worry about how to defend yourselves,
θεσθε ουν εις τας καρδιας υμων μη προμελεταν απολογηθηναι
15 for I will give you words of wisdom that your enemies won't be able to dispute or contradict.
εγω γαρ δωσω υμιν στομα και σοφιαν η ου δυνησονται αντειπειν ουδε αντιστηναι παντες οι αντικειμενοι υμιν
16 You will be betrayed even by your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will kill some of you.
παραδοθησεσθε δε και υπο γονεων και αδελφων και συγγενων και φιλων και θανατωσουσιν εξ υμων
17 Everyone will hate you because of me.
και εσεσθε μισουμενοι υπο παντων δια το ονομα μου
18 But not a single hair of your head will be lost.
και θριξ εκ της κεφαλης υμων ου μη αποληται
19 By standing firm you will gain your lives.
εν τη υπομονη υμων κτησασθε τας ψυχας υμων
20 However, when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then you know that its destruction is near.
οταν δε ιδητε κυκλουμενην υπο στρατοπεδων την ιερουσαλημ τοτε γνωτε οτι ηγγικεν η ερημωσις αυτης
21 Those who are in Judea should run away to the mountains, and those who are in Jerusalem should leave, and those who are the countryside shouldn't enter the city.
τοτε οι εν τη ιουδαια φευγετωσαν εις τα ορη και οι εν μεσω αυτης εκχωρειτωσαν και οι εν ταις χωραις μη εισερχεσθωσαν εις αυτην
22 For these are days of punishment, fulfilling all that's written.
οτι ημεραι εκδικησεως αυται εισιν του πληρωθηναι παντα τα γεγραμμενα
23 How hard it will be for those who are pregnant or nursing babies at that time! For terrible trouble is coming on the land and punishment against this people.
ουαι δε ταις εν γαστρι εχουσαις και ταις θηλαζουσαις εν εκειναις ταις ημεραις εσται γαρ αναγκη μεγαλη επι της γης και οργη εν τω λαω τουτω
24 They will be killed by the sword and taken away as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trodden down by the foreign nations until their time is fulfilled.
και πεσουνται στοματι μαχαιρας και αιχμαλωτισθησονται εις παντα τα εθνη και ιερουσαλημ εσται πατουμενη υπο εθνων αχρι πληρωθωσιν καιροι εθνων
25 There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars, and on the earth the nations will be in distress, confused by the sea's rolling and crashing.
και εσται σημεια εν ηλιω και σεληνη και αστροις και επι της γης συνοχη εθνων εν απορια ηχουσης θαλασσης και σαλου
26 People will be faint from fear, terrified about what is happening to the world, for the powers of heaven will be shaken.
αποψυχοντων ανθρωπων απο φοβου και προσδοκιας των επερχομενων τη οικουμενη αι γαρ δυναμεις των ουρανων σαλευθησονται
27 Then they'll see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
και τοτε οψονται τον υιον του ανθρωπου ερχομενον εν νεφελη μετα δυναμεως και δοξης πολλης
28 But when these things happen, stand up and look up, because you will soon be saved.”
αρχομενων δε τουτων γινεσθαι ανακυψατε και επαρατε τας κεφαλας υμων διοτι εγγιζει η απολυτρωσις υμων
29 Then he told them this story as an illustration. “Look at the fig tree, or any other kind of tree.
και ειπεν παραβολην αυτοις ιδετε την συκην και παντα τα δενδρα
30 When you see new leaves appear, you don't need to be told that summer is near.
οταν προβαλωσιν ηδη βλεποντες αφ εαυτων γινωσκετε οτι ηδη εγγυς το θερος εστιν
31 In the same way, when you see these things happening, you don't need to be told that God's kingdom is near.
ουτως και υμεις οταν ιδητε ταυτα γινομενα γινωσκετε οτι εγγυς εστιν η βασιλεια του θεου
32 I tell you the truth, this generation won't come to an end before all this happens.
αμην λεγω υμιν οτι ου μη παρελθη η γενεα αυτη εως αν παντα γενηται
33 Heaven and earth will come to an end, but my word will not.
ο ουρανος και η γη παρελευσονται οι δε λογοι μου ου μη παρελθωσιν
34 Watch out that you don't become distracted by partying or getting drunk or by the worries of this life, so that this day catches you by surprise.
προσεχετε δε εαυτοις μηποτε βαρυνθωσιν υμων αι καρδιαι εν κραιπαλη και μεθη και μεριμναις βιωτικαις και αιφνιδιος εφ υμας επιστη η ημερα εκεινη
35 For this day will come upon everyone who lives on the face of the earth.
ως παγις γαρ επελευσεται επι παντας τους καθημενους επι προσωπον πασης της γης
36 Always keep watch and pray, so that you may be able to escape all that will happen and stand before the Son of man.”
αγρυπνειτε ουν εν παντι καιρω δεομενοι ινα καταξιωθητε εκφυγειν ταυτα παντα τα μελλοντα γινεσθαι και σταθηναι εμπροσθεν του υιου του ανθρωπου
37 Every day Jesus taught in the Temple, and every evening he went and stayed on the Mount of Olives.
ην δε τας ημερας εν τω ιερω διδασκων τας δε νυκτας εξερχομενος ηυλιζετο εις το ορος το καλουμενον ελαιων
38 All the people came early in the morning to listen to him in the Temple.
και πας ο λαος ωρθριζεν προς αυτον εν τω ιερω ακουειν αυτου
