Luke 21
1 [Jesus] looked up [from where he was sitting] and saw rich people putting their gifts into the [offering] boxes [in the Temple courtyard].
Jesus el tuni ac liye ke mwet kasrup elos sang mwe sang lalos nu in nien eisani mani in Tempul uh,
2 He also saw a poor widow putting in two [small] copper coins.
ac el oayapa liye sie katinmas su arulana sukasrup sang luo cent srusra.
3 He said [to his disciples], “The truth is that these rich people have a lot of money, [but] they gave [only a small part of it]. But this woman, who is very poor, has put in all the money that she had to pay for the things she needs! So [God considers that] [HYP] this poor widow has put more money into the box than all the others.”
Ac el fahk, “Nga fahk nu suwos, katinmas se inge el sang yohk liki mwet saya nukewa.
Mweyen mwet saya uh elos sang ke ma yolyak ke mwe kasrup lalos; a el, el finne sukasrup a el sang nufon ma ac karingin moul lal uh.”
5 Some [of Jesus’ disciples] talked about the Temple. [They commented about] the beautiful stones [used in building the Temple] and the other decorations that [people] had given, decorations [that were on the walls]. But he said,
Kutu sin mwet tumal lutlut uh sramsram ke kato lun Tempul uh, ac ke woiyen yun ma orekla ke eot uh, ac ke mwe sang ma itukyang nu sin God. Ac Jesus el fahk,
6 “[I want to tell you something about] these things that you are looking at. [They will be destroyed] {[Foreign invaders will] destroy [these buildings]} [completely]. Every stone [in these buildings] will be thrown down {They will throw down every stone in these buildings}. Not one stone will be left {They will not leave one stone} on top of another.”
“Ma nukewa ma kowos liye inge — pacl se ac fah tuku ke tia sie sin eot inge ac fah oan ke acn se — kewana ac fah rakinyuki.”
7 [Later] his disciples asked him, “Teacher, when will that happen? What will happen [to the temple] to indicate that the things [you(sg) just told us] are about to happen?”
Ac elos siyuk, “Mwet luti, pia pacl ma ingan ac sikyak uh? Ac akul fuka ac akkalemye lah ma inge apkuran in sikyak?”
8 He said, “[All that I will say is], be sure that you are not deceived {that they do not deceive [you]} [about these things]! Many [people] will come and say (that I [sent them]/that they have my authority) [MTY]. They will say, ‘I am [the Messiah]!’ They will also [say] ‘It is now the time [when God will begin to rule]!’ Do not follow them [to become their disciples]
Jesus el fahk, “Kowos taran mwet in tia kiapwekowosla! Mwet puspis ac fah sramsram ac fahk, ‘Nga pa el!’ oayapa, ‘Pacl uh summa!’ Tuh nik kowos welulos.
9 Also, whenever you hear about wars and riots, do not be terrified. Keep in mind that [God has said that] those things must happen. But [when they happen], it will not mean that [the world] will end right away!”
Nik kowos sangeng ke kowos ac lohng ke mweun ac alein; ma inge ac sikyak meet, tusruktu tia kalmac pa pacl uh apkuran me.”
10 Then he said to them, “[Groups in various] countries will fight each other, and [various] governments [will also fight] against each other.
Ac el sifilpa fahk, “Mutanfahl ac fah tuyak lain mutanfahl; tokosrai ac fah wi pac alein.
11 There will be [big] earthquakes, and in various places there will be famines and plagues. [People will see] things that will terrify them. There will also be unusual things happening in the sky.
Ac fah oasr kusrusr lulap, sracl upa, ac mas sensen yen nukewa. Ac fah oasr pac ma na koluk ac aksangeng ac fah tuku lucng me.
12 But before all these things happen, [some of] you will be persecuted and arrested {people will persecute some of you and arrest you} [MTY]. [Some of] you will be put {They will put [some of] you} [on trial] in the places where you gather to worship, and [you will be thrown] into prison. You will be put on trial {[They] will put you on trial} in front of high government authorities because you are my [MTY] [disciples].
Tusruktu, meet liki ma inge nukewa ac sikyak uh, ac fah kapiri ac akkeokyeyuk kowos; ac kowos ac fah nununkeyuk in iwen lolngok uh ac fili in presin. Ac fah utukyak kowos nu ye mutun tokosra ac mwet leum ke sripuk.
13 That will be a time for you to tell [them about me].
Ac fah pa inge pacl wo lowos in fahk ke Pweng Wo uh.
14 So determine within yourselves not to be worrying before that happens what you will say to defend yourselves,
Akoela nunak lowos an meet liki pacl sac, kowos in tia fosrnga lah kowos ac loangekowos sifacna fuka,
15 because I will make you wise [HEN] so that you will [know] what to say. As a result, none of your enemies will be able to oppose what you say or (refute you/show that you are wrong).
mweyen nga ac fah asot nu suwos kain in kas ac lalmwetmet ma mwet lokoalok lowos uh ac tia ku in lain ku iluhs ke kas kowos ac fahk uh.
16 [And there will also be other evil things that will happen]: Even your parents and brothers and [other] relatives and friends [who do not believe in me] will (betray you/help your enemies to seize you). They will kill some of you.
Kowos ac fah mau tukakinyukyak sin papa ac nina kiowos, tamulel lowos, mwet sou lowos, ac mwet kawuk lowos; ac kutu suwos ac fah anwuki.
17 [In general], most people will [HYP] hate you because [you believe in] me [MTY].
Mwet nukewa ac fah kwase kowos ke sripuk.
18 But your souls will be absolutely safe [IDM].
Tusruktu, tia soko aunsifowos ac fah putatla.
19 By enduring [all these things people will do to you], you will preserve your [eternal] life [SYN].”
Kowos tu na ku, ac kowos fah sifacna molikowosla.
20 “But when you see that Jerusalem has been surrounded by the armies of [your enemies], you will know that it is time for [this city] to be completely destroyed {[them] to completely destroy [this city]}.
“Kowos fin liye tuh acn Jerusalem rauniyukla ke mwet mweun, na kowos ac etu na lah kunausyukla lun acn we apkuran me.
21 At that time those [of you] who are in Judea [district] must flee to the [higher] hills. Those who are in this city must leave [quickly]. Those who are in the nearby countryside must not go back into the city [to get any of their possessions before they flee].
In pacl sacn mwet ma muta in acn Judea enenu in kaingla nu fineol uh, ac mwet ma muta in siti uh enenu in som liki, ac mwet su muta in ima uh in tia folok nu in siti uh.
22 [You must obey what I tell you] because, in order that all the things that are written [in the Scriptures] will be fulfilled, [God] will very severely punish [the people who stay in this city].
Tuh len ingo ac fah pangpang ‘Len in Kalyeiyuk,’ in akpwayei ma nukewa ma fwackyak in Ma Simusla uh.
23 [I feel] very sorry for women [in this city] who will be pregnant, and women who will be nursing [their babies] in those days, [because it will be very difficult for them to run away! I] feel sorry [because] the people in this [land] will suffer greatly [MTY] [when God punishes them].
We nu sin mutan su pitutu in pacl sac, ac nu sin mutan su tufahna isusla uh! Mwe keok yohk ac fah tuku nu fin acn se inge, ac kasrkusrak lun God ac fah oan fin mwet inge.
24 Many of them will be killed {Their enemies will kill many of them} with swords. [Others will be captured] and taken {They will capture [others] and take them} to [HYP] [other] countries. Non-Jewish people will trample over Jerusalem until the time [that God has determined for them to rule the city] is ended.”
Kutu ac fah anwuki ke cutlass, ac kutu ac fah mwet sruoh ac utukla nu in facl puspis saya; ac mwet pegan uh ac fah longya acn Jerusalem nwe ke na pacl lalos safla.
25 “There will also be strange things that will [happen to] the sun, the moon, and the stars. In [many] nations, [people] will be very frightened, and they will be anxious [when they hear] the ocean roaring and [see huge] waves.
“Oasr mwe akul ac fah sikyak ke faht, ac malem, ac itu uh. Mutunfacl nukewa fin faclu ac fah tuninfong ac sangeng ke ngirngir lun meoa uh, ac ku lun noa uh.
26 People will faint because they will be afraid as they wait for what will happen. [They will be afraid] because the powerful [objects] in the sky will be shaken {shake}.
Mwet uh ac fah mulalla ke sangeng ke elos ac tupan lah mea ac sikyak nu fin faclu nufon, mweyen ku lulap lun yen engyeng uh ac fah kifusyukla liki acn selos.
27 Then they will see [me], the one who came from heaven, coming in a cloud powerfully and very gloriously.
Na Wen nutin Mwet ac fah sikme — el tuku in sie pukunyeng ke ku lulap ac wolana.
28 So when these things that [I have just now described] begin to happen, stand up [straight and] be brave, because it will be close to the time when [God] will free you [from all suffering].”
Ke pacl ma inge mutawauk in sikyak, kowos in tuyak ac keyak sifowos nu lucng, tuh molela lowos apkuran me.”
29 [Then] Jesus told his disciples this parable: “Think about the fig tree, and all the [other] trees.
Na Jesus el fahk nu selos pupulyuk se inge: “Nunku ke sak fig ac kain in sak nukewa saya uh.
30 As soon as you see their leaves beginning to sprout, you know that summer is near.
Ke pacl se lesak uh tufahna srunak sroa, na kowos etu lah pacl fol uh apkuran me.
31 Similarly, when you see these things that [I have just described] happening, you will know that it is almost time for God to [truly] rule as king.
In ouiya sacn pacna, ke kowos ac liye ke ma inge sikyak uh, kowos ac etu lah Tokosrai lun God apkuran me.
32 Keep this in mind: All the things that [I have just now described] will happen before all the people who have observed the things that I have done have died.
Pwayena nga fahk nu suwos, ma inge nukewa ac sikyak meet liki mwet ma moul in pacl inge ac misa uh.
33 [You can be certain that these things] that I have told [you] about will happen. That they will happen is more [certain] than that the earth and sky will continue to exist.”
Kusrao ac faclu ac wanginla, a kas luk ac fah tiana wanginla.
34 “But be on guard. Do not be getting drunk with carousing or let yourselves be distracted by worries [concerning] your lives [SYN] {or let worries [concerning] your lives [SYN] distract you}. [If you do wrong things like those, you may be suddenly surprised by my return] [MTY], like a trap [suddenly catches an animal in it].
“Liyekowosyang tuh kowos in tia sisla pacl lowos ke kufwa yohk ac mwe nim ku, ac fosrnga ke ma lun facl se inge, pwanang Len sac ac mau sa na in sruokkowosi
35 [You need to know that my return will surprise] everyone all over the earth.
oana sie mwe kwasrip. Ac fah sikyak nu sin mwet in acn nukewa fin faclu.
36 So be ready at all times. Pray that you will be able to endure without being afraid of all these [difficult] things that will happen, so that you will then stand [confidently] before me, the one who came from heaven.”
Kowos in soano ac pre pacl nukewa tuh kowos in ku in lainla ma inge nukewa ma ac sikyak, ac kowos fah ku in tu ye mutun Wen nutin Mwet.”
37 Each day [during that week Jesus] taught the people in the Temple [courtyard in Jerusalem]. But at night he [and his disciples] left [the city] and stayed on Olive [Tree] Hill.
Len nukewa Jesus el muta luti in Tempul, ac ke fong uh el ac som muta Fineol Olive.
38 Early [each] morning many people came to the Temple [courtyard] to listen to him.
Ke lotutang nukewa mwet nukewa ac toang tukakek ac som nu in Tempul in lohng mwe luti lal.
