Matthew 24
1 Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.
Pea hū atu ʻa Sisu mei he falelotu lahi, pea haʻu ʻene kau ākonga ke fakahā kiate ia hono ngaahi potu ʻoe falelotu lahi.
2 But answering, he said to them, "Do you not see all of these things? Truly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down."
Pea pehēange ʻe Sisu kiate kinautolu, “ʻIkai ʻoku mou mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē? ʻOku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻE ʻikai ʻi heni ha maka kuo fokotuʻu ki ha maka, ʻe taʻelaku ki lalo.”
3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?" (aiōn g165)
Pea ʻi heʻene nofo ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOlive, naʻe haʻu fakafufū ʻae kau ākonga kiate ia, ʻonau pehē, “Fakahā kiate kimautolu, ʻe hoko ʻafe ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni? Pea ko e hā ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻo hoʻo haʻu, pea mo e ngataʻanga ʻo māmani?” (aiōn g165)
4 Jesus answered them, "Be careful that no one leads you astray.
Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Vakai telia naʻa kākaaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe ha tangata.
5 For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will lead many astray.
Koeʻuhi ʻe haʻu ʻae tokolahi ʻi hoku hingoa, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko au ko e Kalaisi;’ pea ʻe kākaaʻi ʻae tokolahi:
6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for this must happen, but the end is not yet.
Pea te mou fanongo ki he ngaahi tau mo e ongoongo ʻoe tau: kaeʻoua naʻa mou manavahē: koeʻuhi ʻe hoko[eni ]kotoa pē, kae teʻeki hoko ʻae ngataʻanga.
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines and plagues and earthquakes in various places.
Koeʻuhi ʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kakai ki he kakai, mo e puleʻanga ki he puleʻanga: pea ʻe ai ʻae ngaahi honge, mo e mahaki lahi, mo e mofuike, ʻi he potu kehekehe.
8 But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.
Ka ko e ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē ko e kamataʻanga pe ʻoe ngaahi mamahi.
9 Then they will deliver you up to oppression, and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name's sake.
“Pea te nau toki tukuange ʻakimoutolu ke tautea, mo tāmateʻi ʻakimoutolu: pea ko e fehiʻanekina ʻakimoutolu ʻe he puleʻanga kotoa pē koeʻuhi ko hoku hingoa.
10 Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
Pea ʻe toki hinga ai ʻae tokolahi, ʻo felavakiʻiʻaki ʻakinautolu, mo fetāufehiʻaʻaki.
11 Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray.
Pea tokolahi ʻae kau palōfita loi ʻe tupu ai, ʻonau kākaaʻi ʻae tokolahi.
12 And because lawlessness is multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.
Pea ko e meʻa ʻi he lahi ʻaupito ʻoe angahala, ʻe momoko ai ʻae ʻofa ʻae tokolahi.
13 But he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.
Ka ko ia ʻe faʻa kātaki ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga, ko ia ia ʻe moʻui.
14 This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Pea ko e ongoongolelei ni ʻoe puleʻanga ʻe malangaʻaki ʻi māmani kotoa pē, ko e meʻa fakamoʻoni ki he puleʻanga kotoa pē, pea ʻe toki hoko mai ʻae ikuʻanga.
15 "When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),
“Ko ia ʻoka mou ka mamata ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he potu tapu, ʻae meʻa ‘fakalielia ʻoe fakaʻauha,’ naʻe lea ki ai ʻae palōfita ko Taniela,” (pea ko ia ʻoku ne lau ia, ke tokanga ia [ki ai]: )
16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
“Pea ke toki feholaki ki he ngaahi moʻunga ʻakinautolu ʻoku nofo ʻi Siutea:
17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out things that are in his house.
Pea ko ia ʻoku ʻi he tuʻa fale, ke ʻoua naʻa ʻalu hifo ia, ke toʻo ha meʻa ʻe taha mei hono fale:
18 Let him who is in the field not return back to take his coat.
Pea ko ia ʻoku ʻi he ngoue, ke ʻoua naʻa liu mai ia, ke toʻo hono ngaahi kofu.
19 But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days.
Ka ʻe malaʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku feitama, mo kinautolu ʻoku toutama, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia!
20 Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a Sabbath,
Ka mou kole ke ʻoua naʻa hoko hoʻomou feholaki ʻi he faʻahitaʻu momoko, pe ʻi he ʻaho Sāpate:
21 for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.
Ka koeʻuhi ʻe toki hoko ʻae mamahi lahi, naʻe ʻikai hano tatau talu mei he kamataʻanga ʻo māmani, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni, pea ʻe ʻikai ʻo lauikuonga.
22 Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.
Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai fakasiʻisiʻi ki he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, ʻe ʻikai moʻui ha tokotaha: ka koeʻuhi ko e kakai kuo fili ʻe fakasiʻisiʻi ai ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ko ia.
23 "Then if anyone tells you, 'Look, here is the Christ,' or, 'There,' do not believe it.
“Pea kapau ʻe toki pehē ai ʻe ha taha kiate kimoutolu, ‘Vakai, ʻoku ʻi heni ʻa Kalaisi,’ pe ‘ʻi hena;’ ʻoua naʻa tui [ki ai].
24 For there will arise false messiahs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
Koeʻuhi ʻe ai ʻae ngaahi Kalaisi loi, mo e kau palōfita loi, ʻonau fakahā ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga lahi, mo e meʻa fakaofo: ke nau kākā ʻaki ʻae kakai kuo fili, ʻoka ne faingofua.
25 "See, I have told you beforehand.
Vakai, kuo u tomuʻa tala ia kiate kimoutolu.
26 If therefore they tell you, 'Look, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out; 'Look, he is in the inner chambers,' do not believe it.
“Ko ia kapau te nau pehē kiate kimoutolu, ‘Vakai, ʻoku ʻi he toafa ia;’ ʻoua naʻa ʻalu atu: ‘Vakai, ʻoku ʻi he ngaahi potu lilo:’ ʻoua naʻa tui [ki ai].
27 For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
He ʻoku hangē ko e ʻasi mai ʻoe ʻuhila mei he potu hahake, pea ulo ʻo aʻu ki he potu lulunga; ʻe pehē foki ʻae haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.
28 Wherever the carcass is, there is where the vultures gather together.
“He ko e potu ko ia ʻoku ʻi ai ʻae ʻangaʻanga, ʻe kātoa ki ai ʻae fanga ʻikale foki.
29 But immediately after the oppression of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;
“Pea hili ʻae mamahi ʻoe ngaahi ʻaho ko ia ʻe fakapoʻuli leva ʻae laʻā, pea ʻe ʻikai ulo mai ʻae māhina, pea ʻe ngangana ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu mei he langi, pea ʻe ngalulu ʻae ngaahi mālohi ʻoe langi:
30 and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.
Pea ʻe toki hā mai ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻoe Foha ʻoe tangata ʻi he langi: pea ʻe toki tangi ʻae ngaahi faʻahinga kotoa pē ʻo māmani, pea te nau mamata ki he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻoku haʻu ʻi he ngaahi ʻao ʻoe langi, ʻi he mālohi mo e nāunau lahi.
31 He will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.
Pea ʻe fekau ʻe ia ʻene kau ʻāngelo mo e meʻa lea leʻo lahi, pea te nau tānaki fakataha ʻene kakai kuo fili mei hono feituʻu langi ʻe fā, mei he ngataʻanga ʻe taha ʻoe langi ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻe taha.
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.
“Pea mou tokanga ki he fakatātā ʻoe ʻakau ko e fiki: ʻOka kei litolito hono vaʻa, pea tupu hono lau, ʻoku mou ʻilo ʻoku ofi ʻae faʻahitaʻu mafana:
33 Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
Pea pehē foki, ʻoka mou ka mamata ki he ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē, mou ʻilo ʻoku ofi ia, ʻio, ʻoku ʻi he matapā.
34 Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away, until all these things are accomplished.
ʻOku ou tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻE ʻikai ʻosi ʻae toʻutangata ni, kaeʻoua ke fakamoʻoni ʻa eni kotoa pē.
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
ʻE mole ʻae langi mo māmani, kae ʻikai mole ʻeku lea.
36 But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but my Father only.
“Ka ko e ʻaho mo e feituʻulaʻā ko ia, ʻoku ʻikai ʻilo ki ai ha taha, pe [ʻilo ʻe ]he kau ʻāngelo ʻoe langi, ka ko ʻeku Tamai pe.
37 "As the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Kae hangē ko e ngaahi ʻaho ʻo Noa, ʻe pehē pe foki ʻae haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.
38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the box-shaped ship,
He koeʻuhi ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho naʻe muʻomuʻa ʻi he lōmaki naʻa nau kai mo inu, mo mali, mo foaki ke fakamaʻu, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho naʻe hū ai ʻa Noa ki he vaka,
39 and they did not know until the flood came, and took them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.
Pea naʻe ʻikai te nau ʻamanaki, mo ʻene hoko mai ʻae vai lahi, ʻo ʻave ʻakinautolu kotoa pē; ʻe pehē pe ʻae haʻu foki ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata.
40 Then two will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left.
ʻE ʻi he ngoue ʻae toko ua; ʻe ʻave ʻae tokotaha, ka ʻe tuku ʻae tokotaha.
41 Two will be grinding grain with a mill; one will be taken and the other left.
ʻE ai ʻae fefine ʻe toko ua ʻoku ngāue ʻi he meʻa momosi; ʻe ʻave ʻae tokotaha, ka ʻe tuku ʻae tokotaha.
42 Watch therefore, for you do not know on what day your Lord comes.
“Ko ia leʻo: he ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo ʻae feituʻulaʻā ko ia ʻe haʻu ai homou ʻEiki.
43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.
Kae ʻilo eni, ka ne ʻilo ʻe he ʻeiki ʻoe fale ʻae lakanga leʻo ko ia ʻe haʻu ai ʻae kaihaʻa, [pehē], kuo ne leʻo, kae ʻikai tuku ke haea hono fale.
44 Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you do not expect, the Son of Man will come.
Ko ia ke tali teu pe ʻakimoutolu foki: koeʻuhi ʻe haʻu ʻae Foha ʻoe tangata ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻamanaki ki ai.
45 "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?
“Pea ko hai ʻae tamaioʻeiki angatonu mo poto, kuo fakanofo ʻe heʻene ʻeiki ke pule ki hono kaungāʻapi, mo tufaki kiate kinautolu ʻae meʻakai ʻi hono taimi totonu?
46 Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.
ʻOku monūʻia ʻae tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻoka haʻu ʻa ʻene ʻeiki, ʻo ʻilo ia ʻoku ne fai pehē.
47 Truly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
Ko ʻeku tala moʻoni atu kiate kimoutolu, te ne fakanofo ia ke ne puleʻi ʻene meʻa kotoa pē.
48 But if that evil servant should say in his heart, 'My lord is delayed,'
Pea kapau ʻe pehē ʻe he tamaioʻeiki angakovi ʻi hono loto, ‘ʻOku fakatuai ne haʻu ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki;’
49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,
pea ne kamata teʻia ʻene kaungā tamaioʻeiki, pea kai ia mo inu fakataha mo e kau konā;
50 the lord of that servant will come in a day when he does not expect it, and in an hour when he does not know it,
ʻE haʻu ʻae ʻeiki ʻae tamaioʻeiki ko ia, ʻi ha ʻaho ʻoku ʻikai te ne ʻamanekina, pea ʻi ha feituʻulaʻā ʻoku ʻikai te ne ʻilo,
51 and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
Pea ʻe tuʻuua ia, ʻo tuʻutuʻuni ke ʻinasi fakataha ia mo e kau mālualoi: pea ʻe ʻi ai ʻae tangi mo e fengaiʻitaki ʻoe nifo.
