ಲೂಕನು 21
[Jesus] looked up [from where he was sitting] and saw rich people putting their gifts into the [offering] boxes [in the Temple courtyard].
He also saw a poor widow putting in two [small] copper coins.
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 ೪ ಹೇಗೆಂದರೆ ಅವರೆಲ್ಲರು ತಮಗೆ ಸಾಕಾಗಿ ಮಿಕ್ಕದ್ದರಲ್ಲಿ ಕಾಣಿಕೆ ಕೊಟ್ಟರು. ಈಕೆಯೋ ತನ್ನ ಬಡತನದಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ತನ್ನ ಜೀವನಕ್ಕಿದ್ದುದ್ದೆಲ್ಲವನ್ನೂ ಕೊಟ್ಟುಬಿಟ್ಟಳು” ಅಂದನು.
5 ೫ ಕೆಲವರು ದೇವಾಲಯದ ವಿಷಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಅದು ಅಂದವಾದ ಕಲ್ಲುಗಳಿಂದಲೂ ಕಾಣಿಕೆಯ ವಸ್ತುಗಳಿಂದಲೂ ಅಲಂಕಾರವಾಗಿದೆ ಎಂದು ಹೇಳುತ್ತಿರುವಾಗ,
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 ೬ ಯೇಸು, “ನೀವು ಇವುಗಳನ್ನು ನೋಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದೀರಲ್ಲಾ, ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಕಲ್ಲಿನ ಮೇಲೆ ಕಲ್ಲು ಉಳಿಯದೆ ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಕೆಡವಲ್ಪಡುವ ದಿನಗಳು ಬರುವವು” ಅಂದನು.
“[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.”
[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 ೮ ಯೇಸು ಹೇಳಿದ್ದೇನಂದರೆ, “ನೀವು ಮೋಸಹೋಗದಂತೆ ಎಚ್ಚರವಾಗಿರಿ. ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ಅನೇಕರು ಬಂದು ನನ್ನ ಹೆಸರನ್ನು ಹೇಳಿಕೊಂಡು ‘ನಾನೇ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ತನು, ನಾನೇ ಕ್ರಿಸ್ತನು’ ಎಂತಲೂ ‘ಆ ಕಾಲ ಹತ್ತಿರವಾಯಿತು’ ಎಂತಲೂ ಹೇಳುವರು. ಅವರ ಹಿಂದೆ ಹೋಗಬೇಡಿರಿ.
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 ೯ ಇದಲ್ಲದೆ ಯುದ್ಧಗಳೂ ಗಲಭೆಗಳೂ ಆಗುವುದನ್ನು ನೀವು ಕೇಳುವಾಗ, ನೋಡುವಾಗ ಭಯಭೀತರಾಗಬೇಡಿರಿ, ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ಇದೆಲ್ಲಾ ಮೊದಲು ಆಗುವುದು ಅಗತ್ಯ. ಆದರೂ ಕೂಡಲೆ ಅಂತ್ಯ ಬರುವುದಿಲ್ಲ” ಅಂದನು.
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!”
Then he said to them, “[Groups in various] countries will fight each other, and [various] governments [will also fight] against each other.
11 ೧೧ ಮತ್ತು ಮಹಾಭೂಕಂಪಗಳಾಗುವವು, ಅಲ್ಲಲ್ಲಿ ಬರಗಳೂ ಉಪದ್ರವಗಳೂ ಬರುವವು, ಭಯಾನಕ ಘಟನೆಗಳೂ ಮಹಾ ಸೂಚನೆಗಳೂ ಆಕಾಶದಲ್ಲಿ ತೋರುವವು.
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 ೧೨ ಆದರೆ ಇವೆಲ್ಲಾ ನಡೆಯುವುದಕ್ಕಿಂತ ಮುಂಚೆ ಅವರು ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಹಿಡಿದು ಸಭಾಮಂದಿರಗಳ ಮತ್ತು ಸೆರೆಮನೆಯ ಅಧಿಕಾರಿಗಳ ವಶಕ್ಕೆ ಕೊಟ್ಟು, ನನ್ನ ಹೆಸರಿನ ನಿಮಿತ್ತವಾಗಿ ಅರಸುಗಳ ಮುಂದೆಯೂ ಅಧಿಪತಿಗಳ ಮುಂದೆಯೂ ಕರೆದುಕೊಂಡುಹೋಗಿ ಹಿಂಸೆಪಡಿಸುವರು.
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].
That will be a time for you to tell [them about me].
14 ೧೪ ಆದುದರಿಂದ ಏನು ಉತ್ತರ ಕೊಡಬೇಕೆಂಬ ವಿಷಯದಲ್ಲಿ ನೀವು ಮುಂದಾಗಿ ಯೋಚಿಸುವುದಿಲ್ಲವೆಂದು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಮನಸ್ಸಿನಲ್ಲಿ ನಿಶ್ಚಯಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳಿರಿ.
So determine within yourselves not to be worrying before that happens what you will say to defend yourselves,
15 ೧೫ ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ನಿಮ್ಮ ವಿರೋಧಿಗಳೆಲ್ಲರೂ ಎದುರು ನಿಲ್ಲುವುದಕ್ಕೂ ಎದುರು ಮಾತನಾಡುವುದಕ್ಕೂ ಆಗದಂಥ ಬಾಯನ್ನೂ, ಬುದ್ಧಿಯನ್ನೂ ನಾನೇ ನಿಮಗೆ ಕೊಡುತ್ತೇನೆ.
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 ೧೬ ಆದರೆ ತಂದೆತಾಯಿಗಳೂ, ಅಣ್ಣತಮ್ಮಂದಿರೂ, ಬಂಧುಬಾಂಧವರೂ. ಸ್ನೇಹಿತರೂ ನಿಮ್ಮನ್ನು ಅವರಿಗೆ ಒಪ್ಪಿಸಿಕೊಡುವರು ಮತ್ತು ನಿಮ್ಮಲ್ಲಿ ಕೆಲವರನ್ನು ಕೊಲ್ಲಿಸುವರು.
[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.
[In general], most people will [HYP] hate you because [you believe in] me [MTY].
But your souls will be absolutely safe [IDM].
By enduring [all these things people will do to you], you will preserve your [eternal] life [SYN].”
20 ೨೦ “ಆದರೆ ಸೈನಿಕರ ದಂಡುಗಳು ಯೆರೂಸಲೇಮ್ ಪಟ್ಟಣಕ್ಕೆ ಮುತ್ತಿಗೆ ಹಾಕಿರುವುದನ್ನು ನೀವು ಕಾಣುವಾಗ ಅದು ನಾಶವಾಗುವ ಕಾಲ ಸಮೀಪವಾಯಿತೆಂದು ತಿಳಿದುಕೊಳ್ಳಿರಿ.
“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 ೨೧ ಆಗ ಯೂದಾಯದಲ್ಲಿರುವವರು ಬೆಟ್ಟಗಳಿಗೆ ಓಡಿಹೋಗಲಿ. ಆ ಪಟ್ಟಣದಲ್ಲಿರುವವರು ಅದರೊಳಗಿಂದ ಹೊರಟುಹೋಗಲಿ. ಹಳ್ಳಿಯವರು ಅದರೊಳಕ್ಕೆ ಹೋಗದಿರಲಿ.
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].
[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 ೨೩ ಆ ದಿನಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಗರ್ಭಿಣಿಯರಿಗೂ ಬಾಣಂತಿಯರಿಗೂ ಆಗುವ ಕಷ್ಟವನ್ನು ಏನು ಹೇಳಲಿ! ಈ ಸೀಮೆಯ ಮೇಲೆ ಮಹಾವಿಪತ್ತೂ ಈ ಜನರ ಮೇಲೆ ಕ್ರೋಧವು ಉಂಟಾಗುವವು.
[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 ೨೪ ಅವರು ಕತ್ತಿಯ ಬಾಯಿಗೆ ಗುರಿಯಾಗುವರು. ಅವರು ಸೆರೆಯಾಗಿ ಅನ್ಯದೇಶಗಳಿಗೆಲ್ಲಾ ಹಿಡಿದುಕೊಂಡು ಹೋಗುವರು. ಅನ್ಯದೇಶದವರ ಸಮಯಗಳು ಪೂರೈಸುವ ತನಕ ಯೆರೂಸಲೇಮ್ ಪಟ್ಟಣವು ಅನ್ಯದೇಶದವರಿಂದ ತುಳಿದಾಡಲ್ಪಡುತ್ತಿರುವುದು.
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 ೨೫ “ಇದಲ್ಲದೆ ಸೂರ್ಯ ಚಂದ್ರ ನಕ್ಷತ್ರಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಸೂಚನೆಗಳು ತೋರುವವು. ಭೋರ್ಗರೆಯುವ ಸಮುದ್ರ ಮತ್ತು ಅಲೆಗಳ ಘೋಷದ ನಿಮಿತ್ತವಾಗಿ ಭೂಮಿಯ ಮೇಲೆ ಜನಗಳಿಗೆ ದಿಕ್ಕುಕಾಣದೆ ಸಂಕಟವು ಉಂಟಾಗುವುದು.
“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 ೨೬ ಆಕಾಶದ ಶಕ್ತಿಗಳು ಕದಲುವುದರಿಂದ ಮನುಷ್ಯರು ಭಯಹಿಡಿದವರಾಗಿ ಲೋಕಕ್ಕೆ ಏನು ಬರುವುದೋ ಎಂದು ಎದುರು ನೋಡುತ್ತಾ ಪ್ರಾಣಹೋದಂತಾಗುವರು.
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}.
Then they will see [me], the one who came from heaven, coming in a cloud powerfully and very gloriously.
28 ೨೮ ಆದರೆ ಇವು ಸಂಭವಿಸುವುದಕ್ಕೆ ತೊಡಗುವಾಗ, ನಿಮ್ಮ ತಲೆಯೆತ್ತಿರಿ, ಏಕೆಂದರೆ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಬಿಡುಗಡೆಯು ಸಮೀಪವಾಗಿದೆ” ಅಂದನು.
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].”
[Then] Jesus told his disciples this parable: “Think about the fig tree, and all the [other] trees.
As soon as you see their leaves beginning to sprout, you know that summer is near.
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.
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.
[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 ೩೪ “ನಿಮ್ಮ ವಿಷಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಜಾಗರೂಕರಾಗಿರಿ. ಅತಿ ಭೋಜನದ ಮದದಿಂದಲೂ, ಅಮಲಿನಿಂದಲೂ, ಪ್ರಾಪಂಚಿಕವಾದ ಚಿಂತೆಗಳಿಂದಲೂ ನಿಮ್ಮ ಹೃದಯಗಳು ಭಾರವಾಗಿರಲಾಗಿ ಆ ದಿನವು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಮೇಲೆ ಉರುಲಿನಂತೆ ಫಕ್ಕನೆ ಬಂದೀತು.
“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].
[You need to know that my return will surprise] everyone all over the earth.
36 ೩೬ ಆದರೆ ಅಂದು ಬರುವುದಕ್ಕಿರುವ ಇವೆಲ್ಲವುಗಳಿಂದ ತಪ್ಪಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವುದಕ್ಕೂ, ಮನುಷ್ಯಕುಮಾರನ ಮುಂದೆ ನಿಂತುಕೊಳ್ಳುವುದಕ್ಕೂ, ನೀವು ಪೂರ್ಣ ಶಕ್ತರಾಗುವಂತೆ, ಎಲ್ಲಾ ಕಾಲದಲ್ಲಿಯೂ ದೇವರಿಗೆ ವಿಜ್ಞಾಪನೆಮಾಡಿಕೊಳ್ಳುತ್ತಾ ಎಚ್ಚರವಾಗಿರಿ” ಅಂದನು.
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 ೩೭ ಯೇಸು ಹಗಲಿನಲ್ಲಿ ದೇವಾಲಯದಲ್ಲಿ ಉಪದೇಶಮಾಡುತ್ತಾ, ರಾತ್ರಿ ಪಟ್ಟಣದ ಹೊರಗೆ ಹೋಗಿ ಎಣ್ಣೆ ಮರಗಳ ತೋಪು ಎನಿಸಿಕೊಳ್ಳುವ ಗುಡ್ಡದಲ್ಲಿ ರಾತ್ರಿಯನ್ನು ಕಳೆಯುತ್ತಾ ಇದ್ದನು.
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.
Early [each] morning many people came to the Temple [courtyard] to listen to him.
