Luka 21
1 Na rĩrĩ, aatiira maitho, Jesũ akĩona itonga igĩĩkĩra mĩhothi yao harĩa heekagĩrwo kĩgĩĩna kĩa hekarũ.
And looking on, he saw the rich men cast their gifts into the treasury.
2 Agĩcooka akĩona mũtumia mũthĩĩni, warĩ wa ndigwa, agĩĩkĩra tũthendi twĩrĩ o ho thĩinĩ.
And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in two brass mites.
3 Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, mũtumia ũyũ mũthĩĩni wa ndigwa nĩahotha mbeeca nyingĩ gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ othe.
And he said: Verily I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
4 Andũ acio angĩ othe maaheana kũringana na ũtonga wao; no mũtumia ũyũ o na arĩ mũthĩĩni, ahotha kĩrĩa gĩothe oima nakĩo gĩa kũmũtũũria.”
For all these have of their abundance cast into the offerings of God: but she of her want, hath cast in all the living that she had.
5 Na rĩrĩ, arutwo amwe ake nĩmaragia ũhoro wa hekarũ, ũrĩa yagemetio na mahiga mathaka na iheo iria ciarutĩirwo Ngai. No Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ,
And some saying of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said:
6 “Ha ũhoro wa mĩako ĩno mũrona-rĩ, hĩndĩ nĩĩroka rĩrĩa gũtagakorwo ihiga rĩrĩ igũrũ wa rĩrĩa rĩngĩ; mothe nĩmakamomorwo.”
These things which you see, the days will come in which there shall not be left a stone upon a stone that shall not be thrown down.
7 Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, nĩ rĩ maũndũ macio magekĩka? Na kĩmenyithia kĩa atĩ marĩ hakuhĩ gwĩkĩka nĩ kĩrĩkũ?”
And they asked him, saying: Master, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when they shall begin to come to pass?
8 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanaheenio. Nĩgũkorwo andũ aingĩ nĩmagooka na rĩĩtwa rĩakwa makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ niĩ We,’ na ningĩ mamwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Ihinda nĩrĩkuhĩrĩirie.’ Mũtikanamarũmĩrĩre.
Who said: Take heed you be not seduced; for many will come in my name, saying, I am he; and the time is at hand: go ye not therefore after them.
9 Rĩrĩa mũkaigua ũhoro wa mbaara na wa ngũĩ, mũtikanetigĩre. Maũndũ macio no nginya mekĩke mbere, no ũguo ti kuuga ithirĩro nĩikinyu.”
And when you shall hear of wars and seditions, be not terrified: these things must first come to pass; but the end is not yet presently.
10 Agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rũrĩrĩ nĩrũgookĩrĩra rũrĩa rũngĩ, na ũthamaki ũũkĩrĩre ũrĩa ũngĩ.
Then he said to them: Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
11 Nĩgũkaagĩa na ithingithia nene mũno, na ngʼaragu, na mĩrimũ mĩũru kũndũ na kũndũ, na maũndũ ma kũmakania na imenyithia nene kuuma igũrũ.
And there shall be great earthquakes in divers places, and pestilences, and famines, and terrors from heaven; and there shall be great signs.
12 “No maũndũ macio mothe matanakinya-rĩ, nĩmũkanyiitwo, na mũnyariirwo na mũneanwo thunagogi-inĩ na njeera o na mũtwarwo mbere ya athamaki na aathani. Maũndũ macio mothe mũgeekwo nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.
But before all these things, they will lay their hands upon you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and into prisons, dragging you before kings and governors, for my name’s sake.
13 Ũndũ ũyũ ũgaakorwo ũrĩ mweke wanyu wa kũmarutĩra ũira.
And it shall happen unto you for a testimony.
14 No rĩrĩ, mũtikanatangĩke mũgĩĩciiria o mbere, ũrĩa mũgeeciirĩrĩra.
Lay it up therefore into your hearts, not to meditate before how you shall answer:
15 Nĩgũkorwo nĩngamũhe ciugo na ũũgĩ iria thũ cianyu itakahota gwĩtiiria kana gũkararia.
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to resist and gainsay.
16 Nĩmũgakunyanĩrwo o na nĩ aciari anyu, na arĩa mũciaranĩirwo nao, na andũ a mbarĩ cianyu, o na arata, na nĩmakooragithia amwe anyu.
And you shall be betrayed by your parents and brethren, and kinsmen and friends; and some of you they will put to death.
17 Andũ othe nĩmakamũmena nĩ ũndũ wakwa.
And you shall be hated by all men for my name’s sake.
18 No rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ rũcuĩrĩ o na rũmwe rwa mũtwe wanyu rũkoora.
But a hair of your head shall not perish.
19 Kũũmĩrĩria kwanyu nĩkuo gũgaatũma mũhonokie mĩoyo yanyu.
In your patience you shall possess your souls.
20 “Rĩrĩa mũkoona Jerusalemu kũrigiicĩirio nĩ thigari cia mbaara, hĩndĩ ĩyo mũkaamenya atĩ kũniinwo kwarĩo kũrĩ hakuhĩ.
And when you shall see Jerusalem compassed about with an army; then know that the desolation thereof is at hand.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo arĩa marĩ Judea nĩmorĩre irĩma-inĩ, na arĩa marĩ thĩinĩ wa itũũra rĩu inene nĩmoime kuo, nao arĩa marĩ ngʼongo-inĩ matikarĩtoonye.
Then let those who are in Judea, flee to the mountains; and those who are in the midst thereof, depart out: and those who are in the countries, not enter into it.
22 Nĩgũkorwo ihinda rĩu nĩrĩo rĩgaakorwo rĩrĩ rĩa kũherithanio, nĩguo maũndũ marĩa mothe mandĩkĩtwo mahingio.
For these are the days of vengeance, that all things may be fulfilled, that are written.
23 Kaĩ atumia arĩa magaakorwo marĩ na nda, na arĩa magaakorwo makĩongithia twana matukũ macio nĩmagathĩĩnĩka-ĩ! Nĩgũkorwo bũrũri ũyũ nĩũkagĩa na kĩnyariirĩko kĩnene na mangʼũrĩ ma gũũkĩrĩra andũ aya.
But woe to them that are with child, and give suck in those days; for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
24 Nĩmakooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, o na matahwo matwarwo mabũrũri mothe ma thĩ. Itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu nĩrĩkarangĩrĩrio nĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ o nginya mahinda ma andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ mahingio.
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword; and shall be led away captives into all nations; and Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the Gentiles; till the times of the nations be fulfilled.
25 “Na nĩgũkagĩa imenyithia thĩinĩ wa riũa na mweri-inĩ na njata-inĩ. Nakuo gũkũ thĩ, ndũrĩrĩ nĩikaigua ruo na igegio nĩ mũrurumo wa iria na makũmbĩ ma maaĩ makĩhũũrana.
And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, by reason of the confusion of the roaring of the sea and of the waves;
26 Andũ nĩmakaringĩka nĩ ũndũ wa kũmaka, na guoya wa maũndũ marĩa magooka thĩ, nĩgũkorwo maahinya ma igũrũ nĩmakenyenyio.
Men withering away for fear, and expectation of what shall come upon the whole world. For the powers of heaven shall be moved;
27 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakona Mũrũ wa Mũndũ agĩũka arĩ thĩinĩ wa itu arĩ na hinya na riiri mũingĩ.
And then they shall see the Son of man coming in a cloud, with great power and majesty.
28 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maũndũ macio makaambĩrĩria gwĩkĩka-rĩ, mũkaarũgama mũtiire mĩtwe yanyu na igũrũ, nĩgũkorwo hĩndĩ yanyu ya gũkũũrwo nĩĩkuhĩrĩirie.”
But when these things begin to come to pass, look up, and lift up your heads, because your redemption is at hand.
29 Ningĩ akĩmahe ngerekano ĩno: “Ta rorai mũtĩ wa mũkũyũ na mĩtĩ ĩyo ĩngĩ yothe.
And he spoke to them in a similitude. See the fig tree, and all the trees:
30 Rĩrĩa yathundũra mathangũ, mũmĩonaga na mũkamenya atĩ ihinda rĩa riũa rĩrĩ hakuhĩ.
When they now shoot forth their fruit, you know that summer is nigh;
31 Ũguo noguo hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũkoona maũndũ macio mothe magĩkĩka, mũkaamenya o wega atĩ ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩũkuhĩrĩirie.
So you also, when you shall see these things come to pass, know that the kingdom of God is at hand.
32 “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, rũciaro rũrũ rũtigathira maũndũ macio mothe matahingĩtio.
Amen, I say to you, this generation shall not pass away, till all things be fulfilled.
33 Igũrũ na thĩ nĩigathira, no ciugo ciakwa itigathira.
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
34 “Mwĩmenyererei, ngoro cianyu itikanakorwo itahĩtwo nĩ ndĩa, na ũrĩĩu na metanga ma muoyo ũyũ, naguo mũthenya ũcio ũmũkorerere ta mũtego o rĩrĩa mũtangĩĩgereria.
And take heed to yourselves, lest perhaps your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting and drunkenness, and the cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly.
35 Nĩgũkorwo ũndũ ũyũ ũgaakorerera andũ arĩa othe matũũraga thĩ-ĩno.
For as a snare shall it come upon all that sit upon the face of the whole earth.
36 Ikaragai mwĩiguĩte hĩndĩ ciothe, na mũhooyage nĩguo mũkaahota kũũrĩra maũndũ marĩa makiriĩ gwĩkĩka, na nĩguo mũkaahota kũrũgama mbere ya Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.”
Watch ye, therefore, praying at all times, that you may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that are to come, and to stand before the Son of man.
37 Na o mũthenya Jesũ nĩarutanaga hekarũ-inĩ, na hwaĩ-inĩ agathiĩ gũkoma kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩrĩa gĩĩtagwo Kĩrĩma kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ.
And in the daytime, he was teaching in the temple; but at night, going out, he abode in the mount that is called Olivet.
38 Nao andũ othe nĩmathiiaga hekarũ-inĩ rũciinĩ tene kũmũthikĩrĩria.
And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, to hear him.
