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]!”
Gdy opuszczali świątynię, jeden z uczniów zachwycał się: —Nauczycielu, spójrz, co to za wspaniała budowla! Co za kamienie!
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.”
—To, co teraz podziwiacie, legnie w gruzach i nie pozostanie tu nawet kamień na kamieniu—odparł Jezus.
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,
Później, gdy siedział na zboczu Góry Oliwnej, mając przed sobą widok na Jerozolimę, Piotr, Jakub, Jan i Andrzej dyskretnie zapytali Go:
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]}.”
—Kiedy wydarzy się to, o czym mówiłeś? Po czym poznamy nadejście tego czasu?
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]!
—Nie dajcie się nikomu oszukać!—przestrzegł ich Jezus.
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.
—Wielu bowiem będzie podawać się za Mesjasza i oszuka mnóstwo ludzi.
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!
Na świecie wybuchną wojny i będą rozchodzić się wieści o walkach. Nie dajcie się jednak zastraszyć, to jeszcze nie będzie koniec!
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].
Narody i państwa będą walczyć przeciwko sobie, a wiele krajów nawiedzą trzęsienia ziemi oraz głód. Ale to będzie dopiero początek tragedii.
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].
Przygotujcie się na to, co nastąpi! Postawią was przed sądami, będą was biczować w synagogach oraz oskarżać przed władzami o to, że Mnie naśladujecie. Będzie to dla was okazja do przedstawienia im dobrej nowiny.
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].
Bo zanim nadejdzie koniec, muszą usłyszeć ją wszystkie narody.
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].
Gdy was aresztują i postawią przed sądem, nie martwcie się o to, co i jak macie mówić. Bo to nie wy będziecie mówić, lecz Duch Święty będzie mówił przez was!
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.
Bracia będą wzajemnie się wydawać na śmierć, ojcowie zdradzą własne dzieci, a dzieci—rodziców.
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}.
Wszyscy was znienawidzą za to, że należycie do Mnie. Ale ci, którzy wytrwają do końca i nie zaprą się Mnie, zostaną uratowani!
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.
Gdy zobaczycie w świątyni „ohydę spustoszenia”—kto to czyta, niech uważa—wtedy ci, którzy będą w Judei, niech uciekają w góry.
15 Those people who are outside their houses must not enter their houses in order to get anything [before they run away].
I śpieszcie się! Jeśli będziecie na tarasie, nie wchodźcie do domu, aby się spakować.
16 Those who are [working] in a field must not return [to their houses] in order to get [additional] clothes [before they flee].
Jeśli będziecie na polu, nie wracajcie po pieniądze czy ubranie.
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]
Ciężko będzie wtedy kobietom w ciąży i matkom karmiącym niemowlęta.
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].
Módlcie się, żeby wasza ucieczka nie wypadła zimą.
Będą to bowiem dni tak straszliwe, jakich nie było od początku świata i już nigdy potem nie będzie.
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].
I gdyby Pan nie skrócił czasu tej klęski, nikt by się nie uratował. Lecz On skróci te dni ze względu na swoich wybranych.
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!
Jeśli wtedy ktoś wam powie: „Tu jest Mesjasz”—nie wierzcie!
Pojawi się bowiem wielu fałszywych mesjaszy i proroków, którzy będą czynić wielkie cuda, starając się oszukać nawet wybranych przez Boga.
23 Be alert! Remember that [I] have warned you about all this before [it happens.]
Dlatego uważajcie i pamiętajcie, że was ostrzegałem!
24 After the time when people suffer like that, the sun will become dark, the moon will not shine,
Zaraz po zakończeniu tego strasznego czasu nastąpi zaćmienie słońca, a księżyc straci swój blask.
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}.
Gwiazdy będą spadać z nieba i zachwieje się cały porządek wszechświata.
26 Then people will see [me], the one who came from heaven, coming through the clouds powerfully and gloriously.
Wtedy cała ludzkość ujrzy Mnie, Syna Człowieczego, przybywającego na obłokach w wielkiej mocy i chwale.
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].
I poślę aniołów, żeby zgromadzili Moich wybranych z całego świata, z najdalszych zakątków ziemi.
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.
Niech to drzewo figowe stanie się dla was przykładem: Gdy jego pączki miękną, a listki zaczynają się rozwijać, mówicie, że zbliża się lato.
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].
Gdy więc zobaczycie wszystko, co wam zapowiedziałem, bądźcie pewni, że mój powrót jest bliski, że jestem tuż u drzwi.
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.
Zapewniam was: Nie wymrze to pokolenie, a wszystko to się dokona.
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.
Niebo i ziemia przeminą, lecz moje słowa pozostaną na wieki.
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.
Nikt jednak nie zna dnia ani czasu, kiedy się to stanie—ani aniołowie w niebie, ani nawet Ja—Syn. Wie o tym tylko mój Ojciec.
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]!
Skoro więc nie wiecie, kiedy się to wydarzy—uważajcie i wyczekujcie mojego powrotu!
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].
Moje drugie przyjście można porównać do powrotu człowieka, który wyjechał w podróż do innego kraju. Powyznaczał pracownikom ich zadania, stróżowi zaś nakazał czuwać aż do swego przyjazdu.
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].
Uważajcie więc, bo wy również nie wiecie, kiedy przyjdę: wieczorem, o północy, o świcie czy po wschodzie słońca.
36 [May it not happen that] when I come suddenly, I will find that you are not ready!
Nie dopuśćcie, abym zastał was śpiących.
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].
Czekajcie i bądźcie przygotowani—oto moje przykazanie dla wszystkich, którzy we Mnie wierzą.
