Matthew 24
1 Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.
Utuu Yesuus mana qulqullummaatii baʼee deemaa jiruu barattoonni isaa gamoowwan mana qulqullummaa isatti argisiisuuf gara isaa dhufan.
2 But he answered them, “You see all of these things, don’t you? Most certainly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down.”
Innis, “Waan kana hunda argituu? Ani dhuguma isinittin hima; asitti dhagaan dhagaa irratti hafu tokko hin jiru; hundi isaa iyyuu ni diigama” jedhee deebiseef.
3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?” (aiōn g165)
Utuu Yesuus Tulluu Ejersaa irra taaʼee jiruu, barattoonni isaa kophaa isaanii gara isaa dhufanii, “Mee nutti himi; wanni kun yoom taʼa? Mallattoon dhufa keetii fi mallattoon dhuma barichaa maali?” jedhan. (aiōn g165)
4 Jesus answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.
Yesuusis akkana jedhee deebiseef; “Akka namni tokko iyyuu isin hin gowwoomsineef of eeggadhaa.
5 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.
Namoonni hedduun, ‘Ani Kiristoos’ jedhanii maqaa kootiin ni dhufuutii; nama hedduus ni gowwoomsu.
6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.
Isin waaʼee waraanaatii fi oduu waraanaa ni dhageessu; garuu akka hin rifanne of eeggadhaa. Wanni akkanaa taʼuu qabaatii; dhumni garuu amma iyyuu hin geenye.
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.
Sabni sabatti, mootummaanis mootummaatti ni kaʼa. Beellii fi sochiin lafaa iddoo garaa garaatti ni taʼa.
8 But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.
Garuu kun hundinuu jalqaba ciniinsuu daʼumsaa ti.
9 “Then they will deliver you up to oppression and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name’s sake.
“Isaan dabarsanii dhiphinatti isin kennu; isin ajjeesus; sababii maqaa kootiifis saba hundaan ni jibbamtu.
10 Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
Yeroo sanatti namoonni baayʼeen ni gufatu; dabarsanii wal kennu; wal jibbus;
11 Many false prophets will arise and will lead many astray.
raajonni sobaa hedduun ni dhufu; nama hedduus ni gowwoomsu.
12 Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.
Sababii baayʼina hamminaatiif jaalalli namoota baayʼee ni qabbanaaʼa;
13 But he who endures to the end will be saved.
namni hamma dhumaatti jabaatee dhaabatu garuu ni fayya.
14 This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
Wangeelli mootummaa kunis akka saba hundaaf dhuga baʼumsa taʼuuf addunyaa hunda keessatti ni lallabama; ergasiis dhumni sun ni dhufa.
15 “When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),
“Kanaafuu, ‘Isin yommuu wanni jibbisiisaan badiisa fidu’kan Daaniʼel raajichi waaʼee isaa dubbate sun iddoo qulqulluu dhaabatee argitanitti, namni dubbisu haa hubatu;
16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
yommus warri Yihuudaa keessa jiran tulluuwwanitti haa baqatan.
17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out the things that are in his house.
Namni bantii manaa irra jiru tokko iyyuu waan tokko illee mana isaatii fudhachuuf gad hin buʼin.
18 Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.
Namni lafa qotiisaa keessa jiru tokko iyyuu uffata isaa fudhachuuf duubatti hin deebiʼin.
19 But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!
Bara sana keessa dubartoota ulfaatii fi haadhota hoosisaniif wayyoo!
20 Pray that your flight will not be in the winter nor on a Sabbath,
Garuu akka baqachuun keessan ganna keessa yookaan Guyyaa Sanbataatiin hin taaneef kadhadhaa.
21 for then there will be great suffering, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.
Yeroo sanatti dhiphinni guddaan isaa ni dhufaatii; dhiphinni akkasiis uumama addunyaatii jalqabee hamma ammaatti hin dhufne; siʼachis gonkumaa hin dhufu.
22 Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.
“Utuu guyyoonni sun gabaabbachuu baatanii silaa namni tokko iyyuu hin hafu ture; garuu sababii filatamtootaatiif guyyoonni sun ni gabaabbatu.
23 “Then if any man tells you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There!’ don’t believe it.
Yeroo sana yoo namni kam iyyuu, ‘Ilaa, Kiristoos as jira!’ yookaan ‘Achi jira!’ isiniin jedhe, hin amaninaa.
24 For false christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
Kiristoosonni sobaatii fi raajonni sobaa ni kaʼuutii; isaanis yoo dandaʼameef filatamtoota illee gowwoomsuuf jedhanii mallattoo gurguddaa fi dinqii ni hojjetu.
25 “Behold, I have told you beforehand.
Kunoo ani duraan dursee isinitti himeera.
26 “If therefore they tell you, ‘Behold, he is in the wilderness,’ don’t go out; or ‘Behold, he is in the inner rooms,’ don’t believe it.
“Kanaafuu yoo isaan, ‘Kuunnoo, inni gammoojjii keessa jira’ isiniin jedhan achi hin dhaqinaa; yookaan yoo isaan, ‘Kunoo, mana keessa gola jira’ isiniin jedhan hin amaninaa.
27 For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Akkuma bakakkaan baʼa biiftuutii buʼee hamma lixa biiftuutti mulʼatu sana dhufaatiin Ilma Namaas akkasuma taʼa.
28 For wherever the carcass is, that is where the vultures gather together.
Iddoo raqni jiru kamitti iyyuu gogocorroowwan walitti qabamu.
29 “But immediately after the suffering of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;
“Akkuma dhiphinni bara sanaa darbeen, “‘Aduun ni dukkanoofti; jiʼis ifa ishee hin kennitu; urjiiwwan samii irraa ni harcaʼu; humnoonni samiis ni raafamu.’
30 and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.
“Ergasii mallattoon Ilma Namaa samii irratti ni mulʼata; saboonni addunyaa hundinuus ni booʼu. Isaanis utuu Ilmi Namaa duumessa samiitiin humnaa fi ulfina guddaadhaan dhufuu ni argu.
31 He will send out his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.
Innis ergamoota isaa sagalee malakataa guddaa isaatiin erga; isaanis filatamtoota isaa kanneen handaara samiiwwanii tokko irraa hamma isa kaaniitti jiran bubbeewwan afran irraa walitti qabu.
32 “Now from the fig tree learn this parable: When its branch has now become tender and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near.
“Fakkeenya kana muka harbuu irraa baradhaa; yommuu dameen isaa latee baala baafatutti akka bonni dhiʼaate ni beektu.
33 Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that he is near, even at the doors.
Akkasuma isinis yommuu waan kana hunda argitanitti akka inni dhiʼaate, akka balbala irras gaʼe ni beektu.
34 Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things are accomplished.
Ani dhuguma isinittin hima; hamma wanni kun hundi taʼutti dhaloonni kun hin darbu.
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
Samii fi lafti ni darbu; dubbiin koo garuu gonkumaa hin darbu.
36 “But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
“Waaʼee guyyaa sanaa yookaan waaʼee saʼaatii sanaa garuu Abbaa qofatu beeka malee namni tokko iyyuu hin beeku; ergamoonni samii irraa iyyuu hin beekan; yookaan Ilmi iyyuu hin beeku.
37 As the days of Noah were, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Akkuma bara Nohi taʼe sana yeroo dhufaatii Ilma Namaattis akkasuma ni taʼa.
38 For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ship,
Bara bishaan badiisaatiin dura ture sana, hamma gaafa Nohi doonii seeneetti namoonni nyaachaa, dhugaa, fuudhaa, heerumaas turaniitii.
39 and they didn’t know until the flood came and took them all away, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Isaanis hamma bishaan badiisaa dhufee hunda isaanii fudhatetti waan dhufuuf jiru hin beekne. Yeroo Ilmi Namaa dhufuttis akkasuma taʼa.
40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one will be left.
Gaafas namoonni lama lafa qotiisaa keessa hojjetu; inni tokko ni fudhatama; kaan immoo ni hafa.
41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and one will be left.
Dubartoonni lama dhagaa daakuutiin daaku; tokko ni fudhatamti; kaan immoo ni hafti.
42 Watch therefore, for you don’t know in what hour your Lord comes.
“Kanaafuu isin dammaqaa; Gooftaan keessan guyyaa kam akka dhufu hin beektaniitii.
43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.
Garuu waan kana hubadhaa: Abbichi manaa utuu yeroo kamitti akka hattuun dhuftu beekee silaa dammaqee eeggata malee akka manni isaa cabsamee seenamu itti hin dhiisu ture.
44 Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don’t expect, the Son of Man will come.
Kanaafuu isinis akkasuma qophaaʼuu qabdu; Ilmi Namaa saʼaatii isin hin eegnetti dhufaatii.
45 “Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?
“Egaa garbichi amanamaa fi ogeessi kan gooftaan isaa akka inni nyaata isaanii yeroo malutti isaanii kennuuf jedhee garboota mana isaa jiraatan irratti isa muudu eenyu?
46 Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.
Garbichi gooftaan isaa yommuu deebiʼutti utuu inni akkasuma hojjetuu isa argu sun eebbifamaa dha.
47 Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
Ani dhuguma isinitti nan hima; inni qabeenya isaa hunda irratti isa muuda.
48 But if that evil servant should say in his heart, ‘My lord is delaying his coming,’
Garbichi sun garuu yoo hamaa taʼe, ‘Gooftaan koo yeroo dheeraa tura’ ofiin jedhee
49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,
garboota isa wajjin tajaajilan tumuu, machooftota wajjin immoo nyaachuu fi dhuguu jalqaba.
50 the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn’t expect it and in an hour when he doesn’t know it,
Gooftaan garbicha sanaa guyyaa inni isa hin eegnee fi saʼaatii inni hin beeknetti ni dhufa.
51 and will cut him in pieces and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
Innis isa kukkuta; fakkeessitoota keessattis isa ramada; achittis booʼichaa fi ilkaan qaruutu taʼa.
The World is Destroyed by Water
