Uluka 21
1 Yeso maveni aje ma iri anu imumu itari adesa wa isi ikirfi iweme ahira u isome.
[Jesus] looked up [from where he was sitting] and saw rich people putting their gifts into the [offering] boxes [in the Temple courtyard].
2 Ma iri ure unee unu zatu nee uruma ma wuna munini muni mure anyimo me.
He also saw a poor widow putting in two [small] copper coins.
3 Ba magu, “Kadure in boo shi, unee unu zatu nee uruma ugemu ma wuna imum me sa iteki iwe me vat uwe.
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.”
4 Vat anu aginome wa nya anyimo imun igebesa wa wa zini. Me unee ugeme sa ma zome unu rumaba, anyimo udira umeme ma nya vat imum igebesa ma ma zini u ciki umeme”.
5 Kasi aye sa wa boo abanga udenge Asere, kasi sa abara uni inu yaba ina po ahuma mi ikirfa sa a nyiza, Magu,
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,
6 Ahira imumu iginome sa Ihira, uwui u eze sa nipo nizomi ni inde sa nidi cukuno Aseseri uroni sada tuburko mini adezi ba.
“[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.”
7 Ba wa iki me, agi, “Unudungara, unu maya uni adi wuzi imumu iginome? Nyanini tidi iri ubata uya uni aku tubi.
[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?”
8 Yeso makabirka, “Wuzani Seki kati uye ma rangishi. Anu gbardang wadi ē anyimo niza num wagusi, 'mimani mē, 'anime', uganiya wa aye mamu kati itarsi we.
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]
9 Ingi ya kunna abanga ani kono nan tikara, kati i wu zabut ba, doli ni imumu iginome i wuzi ani, ibinani ida ayeme debe-debe anime ba”.
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!”
10 Ma gun we, “Anu wadi yeze anu, Tigomo tidi yeze a tigomo.
Then he said to them, “[Groups in various] countries will fight each other, and [various] governments [will also fight] against each other.
11 Adi wuzi tiwiri ta dizi, ati hira sassas adi kuri awuzi ikomo nan imum iburi ani weme.
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.
12 Ingi imum igino vat adi wuzi, wadi mekishi, wa nya shi tetene, wa nya shi ati denge ta Asere nan ti hira ti ukursoso anu, wade ēn shi aje a gomo na magumna barki nizanum.
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].
13 Idi cukuno shi unaa u bezizi.
That will be a time for you to tell [them about me].
14 Barki anime barkani iriba ishi me barkani unā sa idi kabirka.
So determine within yourselves not to be worrying before that happens what you will say to defend yourselves,
15 Mi, indi nya shi teze nan ugamirka, sa vat anu ishina ishi me wada ke wa tunno wa gun shi izin macicu ba.
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).
16 Nan anu yoza, nan ni henu, nan nikura nan a roni wadi gā shi wa huzi ayeshime.
[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.
17 Konda avi madi game shi barki niza num.
[In general], most people will [HYP] hate you because [you believe in] me [MTY].
18 Ko nice ni nide nishi ni da wonoba.
But your souls will be absolutely safe [IDM].
19 Anyimo iriba ishew idi uri muriba mushi.
By enduring [all these things people will do to you], you will preserve your [eternal] life [SYN].”
20 Ingi ya ira Urishalima ana nikara mini kono wa kete uni, i rusa urizo unini wa aye.
“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]}.
21 An desa wazi mayahudawa wa sumi uhana uzalan, m an desa wa rā ati anipin wa dusa, kati a ceki adesa wa rā amupin mu cincin wa ribe.
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].
22 Ti wui tiginome ti ugarziza tini, barki vat imum be sa aye Heke i myinca.
[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].
23 Shi be shi ana ti puro nan adesa wa hamza ahana a ti yē tiginome,
[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].
24 Wadi rizi ufenfan uni gbinang adi ha inwe anyimo ni rere vat ama-nyanga anu zatu tarsa Asere wadi mari Urishalima, u hana uganiya uweme u mynica.
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.”
25 Idi iri U iso abanga anyimo uwui nan upe nan iwirang. U nē anu zatu tarsa Asere wadi si nirere, wadi wu hu barki ugumuzo u raba udang nan ibarka imei.
“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.
26 Anu wadi wi wa zumi barki biyau nan u gamara abanga imum igesa idi kem unē, adi zuruko ubari Aseseri.
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}.
27 Idi ku iri vana unu ma eze anyimo amagaji mari unu bari ninonzo gbardang.
Then they will see [me], the one who came from heaven, coming in a cloud powerfully and very gloriously.
28 Vat uganiya sa imum iginome ya tuba utubsa, hira, tunni, I venki aceshi asseseri, barki ubura ushi wa aye mamu.
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].”
29 Yeso ma nya ubata, “Irani utiti upom, nan matiti vat.
[Then] Jesus told his disciples this parable: “Think about the fig tree, and all the [other] trees.
30 Uganiya sa wa tuba utirso, idi iri ina ce ashi me bi kwugba ba aye mamu,
As soon as you see their leaves beginning to sprout, you know that summer is near.
31 Ane ani, ingi ya ira imumu igino me izini wuza irusi tigomo ta Asere ta biki.
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.
32 Kadure in boo shi, uge uneme uda maraba, adi wuzi vat imumu igeme.
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.
33 Aseseri nan adizi adi aki, Tize tum tida tida akaba.
[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.”
34 Hirani cece ashi, kati i noki mu riba mushi unu gamara abanga une nan bisiza siza nan ubasa utize uti cukum. Uwui u eze udi mukurkan duru.
“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].
35 Kasi imumu imesi, udi ē ahira akonda avi sa ma vengize a muhenu mu unee.
[You need to know that my return will surprise] everyone all over the earth.
36 Cukononi uni rusa koya uganiya, in biringara barki i kem ni kara nu cika vat imumu iginome sa idi ē, kasi sa idi tunno aje uvana unū.
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.”
37 Unu wui mazi unu dungara anyimo udenge Asere, vat niye maka dusa anipo sa agusan ni uzaitun.
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.
38 Vat anu waka dingi uhaza ahira ame nisisizo barki wa kunna me udenge Asere.
Early [each] morning many people came to the Temple [courtyard] to listen to him.
