Luke 21
1 He looked up and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury.
Mme ya re a ema mo Tempeleng a bo a lebeletse bahumi thata fa ba tsenya dineo tsa bone mo letloleng.
2 He saw a certain poor widow casting in two small brass coins.
Mme mohumanegi wa motlholagadi a tla a latlhela dithebe di le pedi.
3 He said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them,
Mme Jesu a re, “Ammaaruri motlholagadi yo wa mohumanegi o ntshitse mo go tona go gaisa ga ba ba ntshitseng gotlhe go kopantswe.
4 for all these put in gifts for God from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on.”
Gonne ba ntshitse bonnye jwa se ba sa se tlhokeng, mme ene ka fa khumanegong ya gagwe o ntshitse gotlhe mo o neng a na le gone.”
5 As some were talking about the temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts, he said,
Bangwe ba barutwa ba gagwe ba simolola go bua kaga bontle jwa maje a a kgabisitseng Tempele le mekgabisa ya segopotso mo dipoteng.
6 “As for these things which you see, the days will come in which there will not be left here one stone on another that will not be thrown down.”
Mme Jesu a re, “Lobaka lo e tla lo dilo tse tsotlhe tse di lo kgatlhang di tlaa digelwang fa fatshe, mme ga go leje lepe le le tlaa tlogelwang le tlhatlaganye le le lengwe; gotlhe go tlaa nna mokoa o le mongwe fela wa matlakala.”
7 They asked him, “Teacher, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?”
Mme ba goa ba re, “Morena! mo go tlaa diragala leng? A go tlaa nna le tlhagiso nngwe pele ga nako ya go diragala?”
8 He said, “Watch out that you don’t get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is at hand.’ Therefore don’t follow them.
Mme a fetola a re, “Lo se lese ope go lo timetsa. Gonne ba le bantsi ba tlaa tla ba ipolela fa e le bo-Mesia, ba re, ‘Nako e gorogile’ mme lo se ka lwa ba dumela!”
9 When you hear of wars and disturbances, don’t be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won’t come immediately.”
“Mme e re fa lo utlwela dintwa le dipheretlhego di simologa, lo se ka lwa tshoga. Dintwa tsa boammaaruri di tshwanetse go tla mme bokhutlo ga bo kitla bo tla ka bonako,
10 Then he said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
gonne chaba e tlaa tsogologela chaba e nngwe le bogosi bo tlaa tsogologela jo bongwe,
11 There will be great earthquakes, famines, and plagues in various places. There will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
mme go tlaa nna dithoromo tse dikgolo tsa lefatshe le mauba mo mafatsheng a le mantsi, le maroborobo le dipoitshego tse di diregang mo magodimong.
12 But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for my name’s sake.
“Mme pele ga mo gotlhe go diragala; go tlaa nna le paka ya dipogiso, lo tlaa gogelwa mo disenagogeng mo dikgolegelong le fa pele ga dikgosi le balaodi ka ntlha ya Leina la Me.
13 It will turn out as a testimony for you.
“Mme ka ntlha ya gone moo, Mesia o tlaa itsege ka bophara a bo a tlotlwa.
14 Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer,
Jalo, lo se tshwenyege ka gore lo tlaa ikarabela jang,
15 for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.
gonne ke tlaa lo naya mafoko a a tshwanetseng le botlhale mo e leng gore baganetsi ba lona ga ba kitla ba lo fetola!
16 You will be handed over even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends. They will cause some of you to be put to death.
Le e leng ba ga lona tota, batsadi ba lona, bomorwa-rraalona, ba lo tsalwang nabo ditsala tsa lona di tlaa lo oka gore lo tshwarwe; mme bangwe ba lona ba tlaa bolawa.
17 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake.
“Mme batho botlhe ba tlaa lo ila ka ntlha ya gore lo ba me e bile lo bidiwa ka Leina la Me.
18 And not a hair of your head will perish.
Mme le fa e le thiri ya tlhogo ya lona ga e kitla e nyelela!
19 “By your endurance you will win your lives.
Gonne fa lo eme ka tlhomamo, lo tlaa boloka mewa ya lona.
20 “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand.
“Mme fa lo bona Jerusalema a dikaganyeditswe ke dintwa, ke gone lo tlaa itseng gore nako ya tshenyego e gorogile.
21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the middle of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter therein.
Hong lesang batho ba Judea ba tshabele kwa dithabeng. Lesang ba ba mo Jerusalema ba leke go falola, mme ba ba kwa ntle ga motse ba se ka ba leka go boa.
22 For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
Gonne ao e tlaa bo e le malatsi a katlholo ya Modimo, le mafoko a dikwalo tsa bogologolo a a kwadilweng ke baporofiti a tlaa diragala ka botlalo.
23 Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath to this people.
“Mme a bo go tlaa latlhega bomme ba baimana mo malatsing ao, le ba ba nang le masea. Gonne go tlaa nna pitlagano e kgolo mo chabeng e le bogale mo bathong ba.
24 They will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
“Ba tlaa bolawa polao e e setlhogo ka ditlha-bani tsa mmaba, kgotsa ba isiwe jaaka bafaladi le ditshwara mo dichabeng tsotlhe tsa lefatshe; mme Jerusalema o tlaa fenngwa a gatakwa ke Badi-chaba go fitlhelela nako ya phenyo ya Badi-chaba e khutla mo lobakeng lwa Modimo.
25 “There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth anxiety of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the waves;
“Mme go tlaa nna le ditiragalo tse di sa tlwaelesegang mo loaping, ditlhagiso le botlhodi jo bo maswe mo letsatsing, ngwedi le dinaledi, le mono lefatsheng dichaba di tlaa nna mo pheretlhegong le mo tlalelong e kgolo ka ntlha ya modumo wa mawatle le makhubu a a sa tlwaelesegang.
26 men fainting for fear and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
Bopelo-kgale jwa batho ba le bantsi bo tlaa reketla ka ntlha ya tiragalo e ba e bonang e tla mo lefatsheng, gonne dinonofo tsa magodimo di tlaa thubaganngwa.
27 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
Mme batho ba lefatshe ba tlaa mpona nna Mesia, ke tla mo lerung ka nonofo le kgalalelo e kgolo.
28 But when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near.”
Mme e tlaa re fa dilo tse tsotlhe di simologa go diragala, lo eme lo tlhamalale lo lebe kwa godimo! gonne poloko ya lona e gaufi.”
29 He told them a parable. “See the fig tree and all the trees.
Mme a ba fa setshwantsho se: “Lepang setlhare sa mofeige kgotsa setlhare sengwe fela.
30 When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.
Fa matlhare a tlhoga, lo itse lo sa bolelelwa gore selemo se gaufi.
31 Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that God’s Kingdom is near.
Fela jalo fa lo bona ditiragalo tse ke di lo tlhaloseditseng di diragala lo tlhomamise gore bogosi jwa Modimo bo gaufi.
32 Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.
“Ke lo tlhomamisetsa gore fa dilo tse di diragala, bokhutlo jwa motlha ono bo tlaa bo bo gorogile.
33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.
Legodimo le lefatshe di tlaa feta, le fa go ntse jalo mafoko a me a eme mo boammaaruring ka bosakhutleng.
34 “So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly.
“Itiseng! Lo se letle gore go tla ga me ka tshoganetso go lo fitlhele lo sa ipaakanya. Ke se ka ka lo fitlhela lo iketlile mo boatleng, kgotsa mo medirong ya botlhapelwa, lo gapilwe ke matshwenyego a botshelo jo, jaaka mo lefatsheng lotlhe.
35 For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth.
36 Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
Lo lebeleleng ka metlha yotlhe. Lo rapele gore e re fa go kgonega lo tle fa pele ga me lo ise lo bone dikhuduego tse.”
37 Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.
Letsatsi le letsatsi Jesu o ne a ya kwa Tempeleng go ya go ruta, mme bontsi jwa batho ba phuthega go sa le mo mosong go ya go mo reetsa. Mme mo maabanyaneng mangwe le mangwe o ne a tle a boele kwa Thoteng ya Lotlhware go ya go lala teng.
38 All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.
