Luke 21
1 Bu katala, buna wumona bamvuama batula makaba mawu mu bipani.
He looked up, and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury.
2 Buna wumona diaka nsukami wu difuola wuyiza tibula bisengo biodi bi zimbongo.
He saw a certain poor widow casting in two lepta.
3 Buna wutuba: —Bukiedika ndikulukamba nsukami wu difuola diadi niandi lutidi vana viokila batu boso bankaka.
He said, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them,
4 Bila batu boso baba batambikidi bitsiadisila. Vayi difuola diadi diveni zizioso zibedi yandi mu zingila.
for all these put in gifts from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on."
5 Sumbu bankaka bayolukila nzo Nzambi bu batuba ti yawu yitungulu mu matadi ma kitoko ayi mu bima bitambuku banga makaba
As some were talking about the temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts, he said,
6 buna Yesu wuba kamba: —Mu diambu di bima biobi lulembo tadi, bilumbu biela kuiza, biobi biela ba ti; kadi ditadi dimosi diela siala va mbata ditadidinkaka ko dinkambutiolumuka.
"As for these things which you see, the days will come, in which there will not be left here one stone on another that will not be thrown down."
7 Buna bawu banyuvula: —A nlongi, thangu mbi mambu beni mela vangiminina ayi mu bidimbu mbi bela zabila ti mambu momo mafueti vangama e?
They asked him, "Teacher, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?"
8 Yesu wuba vutudila: —Lulubuka tala luedi vukumunu bila bawombo bela kuizila mu dizinadiama, bela tuba ti: “Minu kuandi” ayi “thangu yifikimini”. Buna kadi ku balandakana!
He said, "Watch out that you do not get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he,' and, 'The time is near.' Therefore do not follow them.
9 Mu thangu luela wa zimvita ayi zikhindu buna lubika ba mona tsisibila mambu moso momo mafueti tuama ba. Vayi kadi sia ti buna tsukusunuyi ntoto yeka nduka.
When you hear of wars and disturbances, do not be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won't come immediately."
10 Buna wubuela diaka: —Luela mona tsi yela nuanisa tsi yinkaka; kipfumu kiela nuanisa kipfumu kinaka.
Then he said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
11 Kuela ba zindikunu zinneni zi ntoto mu bibuangu biwombo; kuela ba bikanda ayi minsongo; kuela ba mambu ma tsisi ayi bidimbu bitsisi bi diyilu.
There will be great earthquakes, famines, and plagues in various places. There will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
12 —Vayi tuamina mambu moso momo, bela tuama ku lubuila bela kuluyamisa, bela ku lunata mu zinzo zi zikhutukunu; bela ku lukotisa mu nloko. Bela ku lunata va ntuala mintinu ayi minyadi mu diambudi dizina diama.
But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for my name's sake.
13 Mambu momo mela lukuizila mu diambu ma luvana diluakudi kuthelimina kimbangi.
It will turn out as a testimony for you.
14 Bika lusudika mu mintima mieno ti: lubika ba mayindu mu diambu mambu luela vutula mu kukikakila.
Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer,
15 Bila minu ndiela luvana munu wutubila ayi diela ayi bambeni beno zilendi baka bu nuanisina ko ayi bu sudikila ko.
for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.
16 Zimbuta beno, bakhomba zieno, bibutu bieno ayi bakundi beno bela ku luyekula ayi bela vondisa bankaka mu beno.
You will be handed over even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends. They will cause some of you to be put to death.
17 Batu boso bela ku lulenda mu diambu di dizina diama.
And you will be hated by everyone because of my name.
18 Vayi kadi lusuki lumosi lu mintu mieno lulendi zimbala ko.
But not a hair of your head will perish.
19 Lukindama buna luela tambula luvulusu.
"By your endurance you will win your lives.
20 —Bu luela mona masodi mazungididi Yelusalemi buna luzaba ti dieka nduka bungu.
"But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near.
21 Buna bika batu bobo badi mu Yuda batinina ku miongo. Bika bobo badi mu Yelusalemi baba tomba butinina. Bika bobo badi mu zitsola babika buela kota ku divula!
Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the midst of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter it.
22 Bukiedika bilumbu bina biela ba bilumbu bi vutudila landi muingi mambu moso masonama madedakana.
For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 Vayi mabienga kuidi baketo bobo badi mu buemba ayi kuidi bobo bela yemika mu bilumbu bina. Bila ziphasi zingolo ziela ba mu tsi ayi nganzi yingolo yela fuemunu batu baba.
Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days. For there will be great distress in the land, and wrath to this people.
24 Batu beni bela vondulu mu mbedi voti bela natu mu kivika mu zitsizioso ayi bapakanu bela diatila Yelusalemi nate thangu yi fuana.
And they will fall by the edge of the sword and be led captive into all the nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled down by non-Jewish people until the times are fulfilled. And there will be times of the non-Jewish people.
25 —Bidimbu bi tsisi biela monika mu thangu, mu ngonda ayi mu zimbuetete. Va ntoto, batu bela mona tsisi yingolo mu diambu di biyoko bi mbuayi bi mayo mandi.
And there will be signs in the sun, and moon, and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves;
26 Batu bela fuila mu tsisi mudiambu di boma bu mambu mela bua va ntotowumvimba bila lulendo lu diyilu luela nikunu.
people will be fainting from fear, and from expectation of the things which are coming on the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 Buna bela mona Muana Mutu wela kuizila mu matuti mu lulendo ayi mu nkembo wunneni.
Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 Mambu mama bu mela tona buna luvumbuka ayi luba vumbula mintu mienobila buna khudulu eno yifikimini.
But when these things begin to happen, look up, and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near."
29 Wubuela tuba diaka nongo yayi: —Lutala nti wu figi ayi minti mioso.
He told them a parable. "See the fig tree, and all the trees.
30 Muthangu mieti tona mena buna beno veka, mu ku mitala, luzebi ti thangu yi luanga yifikimini.
When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.
31 Bobuawu, beno mamveno buna luela mona ti mambu momo mavangiminibuna luzaba ti kipfumu ki Nzambi kifikimini.
Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that the Kingdom of God is near.
32 Bukiedika ndikulukamba ti tsungi yayi yilendi vioka ko tuaminamambu moso mama mavangama.
Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.
33 Diyilu ayi ntoto biela vioka vayi mambu mama malendi vioka ko.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.
34 Lukikeba beno veka mu diambu di mintima mieno mibika ba zitumu diambudi phulu yi dia ayi yi kolo malavu; ayi mu diambu di mayinduma luzingu lualu muingi lumbu kina kibika lukuizila mu kinzimbukila.
"So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly.
35 Bila kiela kuizila banga dikondi dibuididi batu boso bamvuandanga va ntoto.
For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth.
36 Luzibula meso ayi lusambila mu zithangu zioso mu diambu luba monikabatubafuana mu tina mambu moso mama mafueti kuiza ayi mu diambu lubakabu telumina va ntuala Muana Mutu.
Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be able to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man."
37 Mu muini Yesu wuba longanga mu nzo Nzambi. Wuba totukanga kadika builu ayi wuba vuandanga ku mongo wu minti mi olive.
Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.
38 Muna nsuka-nsuka batu boso baba kuizanga ku nzo Nzambi mu diambu banwa.
All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.
