< Mark 13 >
1 While Jesus was leaving the Temple [area], one of his disciples said to him, “Teacher, look at how marvelous [these] huge stones [in the walls are] and how wonderful [these] buildings [are]!”
Bhai a Yeshu pubhakopokaga ku Likanisha, bhaajiganywa bhabho bhamo gubhaalugulile, “Mmaajiganya, nnole oti gene magangaga shigashitebha gamakulungwa, na majumbaga shigashitebha gamakulungwa!”
2 Jesus said to him, “[Yes], these buildings that you are looking [at] [RHQ] [are wonderful], but I [want to tell you something about] them. They will [soon] be destroyed {[Foreign invaders] will destroy [them]} [completely, with the result that] no stone here [in this Temple area] will be left on top of another stone.”
A Yeshu gubhaajangwile, “Kwali nnikugabhona gene majumba shigashitebha gamakulungwa? Lyakwa liganga shililepeshe pantundu liganga lina, linabhomolwe.”
3 After they arrived on Olive [Tree] Hill across [the valley] from the Temple, Jesus sat down. When Peter, James, John, and Andrew were alone with him, they asked him,
Na a Yeshu pubhaatemi ku shitumbi sha Misheituni, kuloya ku Likanisha, a Petili na a Yakobho na a Yowana na a Ndeleya gubhaabhushiyenje kujika,
4 “Tell us, when will [that] happen [to the buildings of the Temple? Tell us what will happen that will show us that all these things that God has planned] are about to be finished {that [God] is about to finish all these things [that he has planned]}.”
“Ntubhalanjile, genega pushigakoposhele shakani? Na gabhandishilaga kukoposhela, shilangulo shakwe shishibhe nndi?”
5 Jesus replied to them, “[I cannot give you a simple answer to your questions. All I will say is], beware that no one deceives you [concerning what will happen]!
A Yeshu gubhatandwibhe kwabhaalanjilanga, “Mwiiteiganje, mundu anantembanje.
6 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 deceive many people.
Pabha bhandunji bhabhagwinji shibhaikangananje kwa lina lyangu, bhalikwitayanga kuti bhenebho ni nne! Nabhalabhonji shibhaobhyanje bhandu bhabhagwinjinji.
7 Whenever people tell you about wars [that are close] or wars that are far away, do not be troubled. [God has said] that those things must happen. [But when they do happen, do not think] that [God] will finish all [that he has planned] at that time!
Bhai pushimpilikananje ngani ja ngondo na ntenga kopoka kungondo, nnajogopanje pabha genego ganapinjikwa gakoposheleti. Ikabheje mpelo uyene ukaika shangu.
8 [Groups who live in various] countries will fight each other, and various governments will fight each other. There will also be [big] earthquakes in various places; and there will be famines. Yet, [when these things happen, people will have only just begun to suffer. The first things that they suffer will be like] the first pains a woman [suffers] who is about to bear a child. [They will suffer much more after that].
Pabha shilambo shimo shishikomane na shilambo shina na upalume gumo shigukomane na upalume guna, shigapagwe maungumilo ga litaka muilambo na shishikoposhele shibhanga shapunda. Genego shigabhe malinga kutandubha kupoteka kwa shitumbo nkwigopola mwana.
9 Be ready for [what people will do to you at that time]. Because [you believe in] me, they will arrest you and put you on trial before the religious councils. (In the synagogues/In the Jewish meeting places), you will be beaten {others will beat you}. You will be put {[People will put] you} [on trial] in the presence of high government authorities. As a result, you will be able to tell them [about me].
“Ikabheje mmanganyanji mwiteiganje. Pabha shibhankamulanje kumpelekanga nngumbi ya bhanangulungwa bha nnyumba ya jujila Nnungu nikunkomanga. Numbe shimpelekwanje kubhakulungwanji ga ligongo lyangu nne, nkupinga ubhe ukong'ondelo gwabhonji.
10 My good message must be proclaimed {[You] must proclaim my good message} to [people in] all people-groups before [God finishes all that he has planned].
Ikabheje shikulongolele oti kulunguywa kwa Ngani ja Mbone kubhandu bhowe, mpelo gula ukanabheika.
11 And when people arrest you in order to prosecute you [because you believe in me], do not worry before that happens about what you will say. Instead, say what [God] puts into your mind at that time. Then it will not be [just] you who will be speaking. It will be the Holy Spirit [who will be speaking through you].
Kwa nneyo pushibhankamulanje nikunshitakiyanga, nnaganishiyanjeti ga bheleketa, ikabheje mmeleketanje lilobhe lyolyowe shilinjiilanje malanga gogo pego, pabha nngabha mmanganyanji shimmeleketanje, ikabhe Mbumu jwa Ukonjelo.
12 [Other evil things will happen]: People [who do not believe in me] will (betray/help others seize) their brothers [and sisters] in order that [the government] can execute them. Parents [will betray] their children, and children will betray their parents so that [the government] will kill their parents.
Pabha jwannung'una shantendebhushe nkulugwe abhulagwe, ainamundu shibhantendebhushe mwanagwabho, nkali bhana shibhaatendebhukanje bhaakwetenje kupinga bhabhulagwanje.
13 [In general], you will be hated by most [HYP] people {most [HYP] people will hate you} because [you believe in] me. But all you who continue [to trust in me strongly] until your life is finished will be saved {[God] will save all you who continue [to trust in me strongly] until your life ends}.
Bhandu bhowe shibhanshimanje ligongo lya lina lyangu. Ikabheje shaipililile mpaka kumpelo, jwenejo nishatapulwe.”
14 [During that time] the disgusting [thing/person that the prophet Daniel described] will enter the Temple. It/He will defile [the Temple when he enters it and will cause people to abandon it. When you see it/him standing there] where it/he should not be, [you should run away quickly] (May everyone who is reading this pay attention to [this warning from Jesus]!) [At that time] those people who are in Judea [district] must flee to [higher] hills.
Bhai mundu ashoma shene shitabhu shino, anapinjikwa apilikanishiye ukoto malombolelo ge malobhe gakwiyago. A Yeshu gubhapundile bheleketa, “Penepo shinshibhonanje shindu shibhabhelenje a Daniel a nkulondola bha a Nnungu ga shindu sha nnjimwa ja shonanga, shijimi pakapinjikwa, bhai, bhalinginji ku Yudea bhabhutushilanje mwitumbi.
15 Those people who are outside their houses must not enter their houses in order to get anything [before they run away].
Ali pashitubhili anatulushe pai, nijinjila nnyumba kutola nngubho yakwe.
16 Those who are [working] in a field must not return [to their houses] in order to get [additional] clothes [before they flee].
Najwalakwe ali kunngunda anabhuje nnyuma kutola indu yakwe.
17 But I feel very sorry for women 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]
Ikabheje mboteko yabhonji bhanabhakongwe bhakwetenje ndumbo na bhaajonjeyanga gene mobhago!
18 In those days people will suffer very severely. People have never suffered like that since the time when God first created the world until now; and people will not [suffer that way] again. [So] pray that [this painful time] will not happen in (winter/the rainy season), [when it will be hard to travel].
Ikabheje njuganje genego ganakoposhele mobha ga shipwepwe.
Pabha gene mobhago shipinga koposhela shilaje shikulungwa, shikanabhe koposhela tandubhila kupanganywa kwa shilambolyo mpaka nnaino na wala shikakoposhela kabhili.
20 If the Lord [God] had not [decided that he would] shorten that time [when people suffer so much], everyone would die. But he has [decided to] shorten that time because [he is concerned about you] people whom he has chosen [DOU].
Kaliji Bhakulungwa bhakanaupikaye gwinji gwa gene mobhago, jwakwa mundu akatapwilwe. Ikabheje kwa ligongo lya bhaagwilwenje, bhashikugapunguya gene mobhago.
21 [At that time people who will] falsely [say that they are] Messiahs and prophets will appear. Then they will perform many kinds (of miracles/of things that ordinary people cannot do) [DOU]. They will even try to deceive [you] people whom God has chosen, [but they will not] be able to do that. So at that time if someone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or [if someone says], ‘Look, he is over there!’ do not believe it!
“Penepo mundu alugulaga, ‘Nnole, a Kilishitu kubhali akuno’ eu ‘Kubhali akula,’ nnakulupalilanje.
Pabha shibhakoposhelanje ashi kilishitu bha unami, na ashinkulondola bha unami, shibhatendanje ilangulo na ilapo, nkupinga itendekaga bhaapuganyanje nkali bhaagwilwenjwe bha a Nnungu.
23 Be alert! Remember that [I] have warned you about all this before [it happens.]
Ikabheje mmanganyanji mwiteiganje. Pabha nimmalanjilenje gowe gakanabhe koposhela.
24 After the time when people suffer like that, the sun will become dark, the moon will not shine,
“Bhai gene mobhago shipitaga shilajesho, lyubha shilitajwe lubhindu na lwei lukalangaya.
25 the stars will fall from the sky, and all things in the sky will be shaken {[God will cause] all things in the sky to shake}.
Ndondwa shiigwe, na mashili ga kuliunde shigatenganyishe.
26 Then people will see [me], the one who came from heaven, coming through the clouds powerfully and gloriously.
Penepo shibhamonanje Mwana juka Mundu ngulikwiya, kukoposhela kuliunde na mashili gamagwinji na Ukonjelo.
27 Then I will send out my angels in order that they gather together the people whom [God] has chosen from [everywhere, and that includes] all the most remote places on earth [IDM, DOU].
Penepo shinaatumanje ashimalaika bha a Nnungu, pita kwatolanga bhaagwilwenje, kopoka mmbali nsheshe ya shilambolyo, kukoposhela mpelo gumo gwa shilambolyo mpaka mpelo gwa liunde.
28 Now I [want you to] learn something from this parable about [the way] fig trees [grow]. [In this area], when their buds become tender and their leaves begin to sprout, you know that summer is near.
“Mwijiganyanje kwa lutango lwa ntini, lujambi lwake puluipuya maamba gaambi, nnakumumanyanga kuti shuku shibhandishile.
29 Similarly, when you see [what I have just described] happening, you yourselves will know that it is very near [the time for me to return] [MTY]. [It will be as though I am] already at the door [HEN].
Nneyo peyo na mmanganyanji, pushingabhonanje genego galikoposhela, mmumanyanje kuti nne Mwana juka Mundu puni pannango.
30 Keep this in mind: You have observed the things that I have done and said, but all of those events [that I have just told you about] will happen before all of you will die.
Kweli ngunakummalanjilanga, alu lubhelekolu lukamala, gakanabhe koposhela gene gowega.
31 You can [be certain that] these things [that I have prophesied] will happen. [You can be more certain of that than] you can [be certain that] the earth and what is in the sky will stay in place.
Kunnungu na shilambolyo shiipite, ikabheje malobhe gangu gakapita.
32 But no one knows the exact time [when I will return]. The angels in heaven also do not know. Even [I do not know.] Only my Father knows.
“Ikabheje ga lyene lyubhalyo na malanga gakwe jwakwa mundu akugamanya, nkali ashimalaika bha kunnungu, wala Mwana, ikabhe Atati jikape.
33 So be ready, [like people who are waiting for an important man to come], because you do not know when that time will come [when all these events will happen]!
Mwiteiganje na sheya, pabha nkakugamanyanga malanga pushigakoposhele genego.
34 When a man who wants to travel [to a distant place] is [about to] leave his house, he tells his servants that they should manage the house. [He tells] each one what he should do. Then he tells the doorkeeper to be ready [for his return].
Pushiibhe malinga mundu ajabhula mwanja, akuno alikwaaleshelanga bhatumwa bhakwe kila mundu na liengo lyakwe, nikunnajila nkulinda asheye.
35 [That man must always be] ready, [because he does not know whether] his master will return in the evening, at midnight, when the rooster crows, or at dawn. [Similarly], you also must [always] be ready, because you do not know [when I will return].
Bhai nsheyanje nnijuga Nnungu, pabha nkakumumanyanga shakani pushibhabhuje bhayene nyumba, monaga shiibhe ligulo, eu pakati shilo, eu malanga ga kongobhela lipongo, eu lyamba,
36 [May it not happen that] when I come suddenly, I will find that you are not ready!
ibhaga shibhaishe kwaimushila, bhanang'imananje nngonilenje.
37 These words that I am saying to you [disciples] I am saying to everyone [who believes in me: Always] be ready!” [That is what Jesus warned his disciples].
Lyene lingummalanjilanga mmanganyanji, ngunakwabhaalanjilanga bhowe. Nsheyanje!”
