Luka 21
1 Yesu alitazama kwa makini, akawaona matajiri walivyokuwa wanatia sadaka zao katika hazina ya Hekalu,
atha dhanilokA bhANDAgAre dhanaM nikShipanti sa tadeva pashyati,
2 akamwona pia mama mmoja mjane akitumbukiza humo sarafu mbili ndogo.

3 Basi, akasema, “Nawaambieni kweli, mama huyu mjane ametia zaidi katika hazina kuliko wote.
tato yIshuruvAcha yuShmAnahaM yathArthaM vadAmi, daridreyaM vidhavA sarvvebhyodhikaM nyakShepsIt,
4 Kwa maana, wengine wote wametoa sadaka zao kutokana na ziada ya mali zao, lakini huyu mama, ingawa ni maskini, ametoa kila kitu alichohitaji kwa kuishi.”

5 Baadhi ya wanafunzi walikuwa wanazungumza juu ya Hekalu, jinsi lilivyopambwa kwa mawe ya thamani, pamoja na sadaka zilizotolewa kwa Mungu. Yesu akasema,
apara ncha uttamaprastarairutsR^iShTavyaishcha mandiraM sushobhatetarAM kaishchidityukte sa pratyuvAcha
6 “Haya yote mnayoyaona—zitakuja siku ambapo hakuna hata jiwe moja litakalosalia juu ya lingine; kila kitu kitaharibiwa.”

7 Basi, wakamwuliza, “Mwalimu, mambo hayo yatatokea lini? Na ni ishara gani zitakazoonyesha kwamba karibu mambo hayo yatokee?”
tadA te paprachChuH, he guro ghaTanedR^ishI kadA bhaviShyati? ghaTanAyA etasyasashchihnaM vA kiM bhaviShyati?
8 Yesu akawajibu, “Jihadharini, msije mkadanganyika. Maana wengi watatokea na kulitumia jina langu wakisema: Mimi ndiye, na, Wakati ule umekaribia. Lakini ninyi msiwafuate!

9 Basi, mtakaposikia habari za vita na misukosuko, msitishike; maana ni lazima hayo yatokee kwanza, lakini mwisho wa yote, bado.”
