Lukka 21
1 Awo Yesu bwe yayimusa amaaso n’alaba abantu abagagga nga bateeka ebirabo byabwe mu ggwanika mu Yeekaalu.
And looking on, he saw the rich men cast their gifts into the treasury.
2 N’alaba nnamwandu omwavu ng’awaayo busente bubiri.
And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in two brass mites.
3 N’agamba nti, “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti nnamwandu oyo omwavu agabye okusinga bali abagagga bonna.
And he said: Verily I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
4 Kubanga bagabye kitono nga bakiggya ku bugagga bwe bafisizzaawo, naye nnamwandu mu bwavu bwe awaddeyo kyonna ky’alina.”
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 Ne wabaawo aboogera ku bulungi bw’amayinja agaweebwayo eri Katonda okuzimba Yeekaalu.
And some saying of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said:
6 Naye Yesu n’agamba nti, “Ekiseera kijja ebirungi bino byonna bye mutunuulira lwe biribetentulwa ne watasigalawo jjinja na limu nga litudde ku linnaalyo, eritalisuulibwa wansi.”
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 Ne bamubuuza nti, “Omuyigiriza, ebyo biribaawo ddi? Ye walibaawo akabonero akaliraga nti biri kumpi okubaawo?”
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 Yesu n’addamu nti, “Mwekuume muleme kulimbibwalimbibwa. Kubanga bangi balikozesa erinnya lyange, nga bagamba nti, ‘Nze nzuuyo.’ Naye temubakkirizanga.
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 Naye bwe muwuliranga entalo n’obwegugungo, temutyanga. Kubanga entalo ziteekwa okusooka okujja, naye enkomerero terituuka mangwago.”
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 N’ayongera n’abagamba nti, “Amawanga galirwanagana, n’obwakabaka ne bulwanagana ne bunaabwo.
Then he said to them: Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
11 Wagenda kubeerawo musisi ow’amaanyi ennyo, n’enjala ennyingi mu bitundu eby’enjawulo, ne kawumpuli. Walibaawo n’ebyentiisa ate n’obubonero okuva mu ggulu.
And there shall be great earthquakes in divers places, and pestilences, and famines, and terrors from heaven; and there shall be great signs.
12 “Naye bino byonna nga tebinnabaawo balibayigganya, balibakwata. Balibawaayo mu makuŋŋaaniro, ne mu maaso ga bakabaka ne bagavana, ku lw’erinnya lyange, ne musibibwa ne mu makomera.
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 Kiribaviiramu okufuna omukisa okuba abajulirwa bange.
And it shall happen unto you for a testimony.
14 Naye temweraliikiriranga gye muliggya ebigambo eby’okuwoza,
Lay it up therefore into your hearts, not to meditate before how you shall answer:
15 Kubanga ŋŋenda kubawa ebigambo n’amagezi ebiriremesa n’abalabe bammwe okubaako n’eky’okuddamu!
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to resist and gainsay.
16 Muliweebwayo bakadde bammwe, ne baganda bammwe ne mikwano gyammwe, balibawaayo mukwatibwe, era abamu ku mmwe muttibwe.
And you shall be betrayed by your parents and brethren, and kinsmen and friends; and some of you they will put to death.
17 Abantu bonna balibakyawa nga babalanga erinnya lyange.
And you shall be hated by all men for my name’s sake.
18 Naye n’oluviiri olumu bwe luti olw’oku mitwe gyammwe terulizikirira.
But a hair of your head shall not perish.
19 Kubanga bwe muligumiikiriza muliwonya obulamu bwammwe.”
In your patience you shall possess your souls.
20 “Bwe mulabanga nga Yerusaalemi kyetooloddwa amaggye, nga mutegeera nga Okuzikirizibwa kw’ekibuga ekyo kutuuse.
And when you shall see Jerusalem compassed about with an army; then know that the desolation thereof is at hand.
21 Abo abalibeera mu Buyudaaya baddukiranga ku nsozi, abaliba mu Yerusaalemi bakivangamu ne badduka, n’abo abalibeera mu nnimiro tebakomangawo mu kibuga.
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 Kubanga ebyo bye biriba ebiseera Katonda mwaliwolera eggwanga, n’ebigambo ebiri mu Byawandiikibwa birituukirizibwa.
For these are the days of vengeance, that all things may be fulfilled, that are written.
23 Nga ziribasanga abakazi abaliba embuto n’abayonsa! Kubanga eggwanga liribonaabona, n’abantu baalyo balisunguwalirwa.
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 Abamu balittibwa n’ekitala ky’omulabe, abalala balikwatibwa ne bawaŋŋangusibwa mu mawanga gonna amalala ag’oku nsi. Yerusaalemi kiriwangulwa bannaggwanga ne bakirinnyirira okutuusa ekiseera kyabwe eky’obuwanguzi lwe kirikoma mu kiseera Katonda ky’aliba ateesezza.”
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 “Walibaawo obubonero ku njuba, ne ku mwezi, ne ku mmunyeenye. Wano ku nsi amawanga galibeera mu kunyolwa, olw’ab’amawanga, ng’abantu basamaaliridde olw’ennyanja eziyira n’amayengo ageesiikuula.
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 Abantu baliggwaamu amaanyi ne bazirika nga batidde nnyo olw’ebirijja ku nsi; kubanga amaanyi g’eggulu galinyeenyezebwa.
Men withering away for fear, and expectation of what shall come upon the whole world. For the powers of heaven shall be moved;
27 Mu kiseera ekyo muliraba Omwana w’Omuntu ng’ajjira mu kire n’obuyinza n’ekitiibwa kingi.
And then they shall see the Son of man coming in a cloud, with great power and majesty.
28 Kale ebintu ebyo bwe bitandikanga muyimiriranga butereevu ne muyimusa amaaso gammwe waggulu! Kubanga okulokolebwa kwammwe nga kusembedde.”
But when these things begin to come to pass, look up, and lift up your heads, because your redemption is at hand.
29 Awo Yesu n’abagerera olugero luno nti, “Mutunuulire omuti omutiini n’emiti emirala gyonna.
And he spoke to them in a similitude. See the fig tree, and all the trees:
30 Bwe mulaba nga gitandise okutojjera, mumanya ng’ebiseera eby’ebbugumu bituuse.
When they now shoot forth their fruit, you know that summer is nigh;
31 Mu ngeri y’emu bwe muliraba ebintu nga bibaawo, nga mumanya nti obwakabaka bwa Katonda buli kumpi okutuuka.
So you also, when you shall see these things come to pass, know that the kingdom of God is at hand.
32 “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti omulembe guno teguliggwaawo okutuusa ng’ebintu ebyo byonna bituukiridde.
Amen, I say to you, this generation shall not pass away, till all things be fulfilled.
33 Eggulu n’ensi biriggwaawo, naye ebigambo byange tebigenda kuggwaawo.
Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
34 “Mwekuume muleme okwemalira mu binyumu n’okutamiira, n’okweraliikirira eby’obulamu, okujja kwange okw’amangu kuleme kubakwasa nga temugenderedde ng’abagudde mu mutego.
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 Kubanga olunaku olwo lulituuka ku buli muntu mu nsi yonna.
For as a snare shall it come upon all that sit upon the face of the whole earth.
36 Mutunule nga musaba Katonda buli kiseera, abawe amaanyi okubasobozesa okuwona ebintu ebyo byonna, Omwana w’Omuntu bw’alijja mulyoke musobole okuyimirira mu maaso ge.”
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 Buli lunaku Yesu yayigirizanga mu Yeekaalu, bwe bwawungeeranga n’ava mu kibuga n’asula ku lusozi oluyitibwa olwa Zeyituuni.
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 Mu makya abantu bonna ne bajjanga mu Yeekaalu okumuwuliriza.
And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, to hear him.
