Matthew 24
1 And Jesus went out of the Temple, and on the way his disciples came to him, pointing out the buildings of the Temple.

2 But he, answering, said to them, See you not all these things? truly I say to you that here there will not be one stone resting on another, which will not be pulled down.

3 And while he was seated on the Mountain of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, Make clear to us, when will these things be? and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the world? (aiōn g165)

4 And Jesus said to them in answer, Take care that you are not tricked.

5 For people will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and a number will be turned from the true way through them.

6 And news will come to you of wars and talk of wars: do not be troubled, for these things have to be; but it is still not the end.

7 For nation will be moved against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and men will be without food, and the earth will be shaking in different places;

8 But all these things are the first of the troubles.

9 Then they will be cruel to you, and will put you to death: and you will be hated by all nations because of my name.

10 And numbers of people will be turned from the right way, and will give one another up and have hate for one another.

11 And a number of false prophets will come, causing error.

12 And because wrongdoing will be increased, the love of most people will become cold.

13 But he who goes through to the end will get salvation.

14 And this good news of the kingdom will be given through all the world for a witness to all nations; and then the end will come.

15 When, then, you see in the holy place the unclean thing which makes destruction, of which word was given by Daniel the prophet (let this be clear to the reader),
ⲓ̅ⲉ̅⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲧⲉⲛⲛⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲥⲱϥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ ⲫⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲁϥϫⲟϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗϩⲓⲧⲉⲛ ⲇⲁⲛⲓⲏⲗ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲡⲣⲟⲫⲏⲧⲏⲥ ⲉϥ⳿ⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⲉⲑⲟⲩⲁⲃ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲱϣ ⲙⲁⲣⲉϥⲕⲁϯ.
16 Then let those who are in Judaea go in flight to the mountains:

17 Let not him who is on the house-top go down to take anything out of his house:

18 And let not him who is in the field go back to get his coat.

19 But it will be hard for women who are with child and for those with babies at the breast in those days.
ⲓ̅ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⳿ⲙⲃⲟⲕⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧϯϭⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲛⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ.
20 And say a prayer that your flight may not be in the winter, or on a Sabbath.

21 Because in those days there will be great sorrow, such as there has not been from the start of the world till now, or ever will be.
ⲕ̅ⲁ̅⳿ⲉⲣⲉ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⲅⲁⲣ ⳿ⲛϩⲟϫϩⲉϫ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥⲣⲏϯ ⲓⲥϫⲉⲛ ϩⲏ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ϣⲁ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉ ⲟⲩⲟⲛ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲟⲛ.
22 And if those days had not been made short there would have been no salvation for any, but because of the saints those days will be made short.

23 Then if any man says to you, See, here is the Christ, or, Here; do not put faith in him;

24 For there will come up false Christs, and false prophets, who will do great signs and wonders; so that if possible even the saints might be tricked.

26 If, then, they say to you, See, he is in the waste land; go not out: See, he is in the inner rooms; put no faith in it.

29 But straight away, after the trouble of those days, the sun will be made dark and the moon will not give her light and the stars will come down from heaven and the powers of heaven will be moved:

45 Who is the true and wise servant, whom his lord has put over those in his house, to give them their food at the right time?
ⲙ̅ⲉ̅ⲛⲓⲙ ϩⲁⲣⲁ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲓⲡⲓⲥⲧⲟⲥ ⳿ⲙⲃⲱⲕ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁⲃⲉ ⲫⲏ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥ⳪ ⲛⲁⲭⲁϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥ⳿ⲉⲃⲓⲁⲓⲕ ⳿ⲉϯⲛⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲟⲩ⳿ϧⲣⲉ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲏⲓⲥ.
46 A blessing on that servant, who will be doing so when his lord comes.
ⲙ̅ⲋ̅⳿ⲱⲟⲩⲛⲓⲁⲧϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲃⲱⲕ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲉϥ⳪ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥϫⲉⲙϥ ⲉϥ⳿⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲁⲓⲣⲏϯ.
47 Truly, I say to you, he will put him over all he has.
ⲙ̅ⲍ̅⳿ⲁⲙⲏⲛ ϯϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲛⲱⲧⲉⲛ ϫⲉ ⳿ϥⲛⲁⲭⲁϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ϩⲣⲏⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲡⲉⲧⲉⲛⲧⲁϥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ.
48 But if that evil servant says in his heart, My lord is a long time in coming;
ⲙ̅ⲏ̅⳿ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥϣⲁⲛϫⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓⲃⲱⲕ ⲉⲧϩⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲉϥϩⲏⲧ ϫⲉ ⲡⲁ⳪ ⲛⲁⲱⲥⲕ.
49 And is cruel to the other servants, taking his pleasure with those who are overcome with wine;
ⲙ̅ⲑ̅ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲉⲣϩⲏⲧⲥ ⳿ⲛϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿⳿ⲉⲛⲉϥ⳿ϣⲫⲏⲣ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉⲃⲓⲁⲓⲕ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲟⲩⲱⲙ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲥⲱ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲑⲁϧⲓ.
50 The lord of that servant will come in a day when he is not looking for him, and in an hour of which he has no knowledge,
ⲛ̅ⲉϥ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡ⳪ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲃⲱⲕ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ϧⲉⲛ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϥϫⲟⲩϣⲧ ϧⲁϫⲱϥ ⲁⲛ ⲛⲉⲙ ϧⲉⲛ ϯⲟⲩⲛⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲧⲉϥⲥⲱⲟⲩⲛ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ⲁⲛ.
51 And will have him cut in two, and will give him a part in the fate of the false ones: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.
