Marko 13
1 Esime Yesu kple eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo nɔ go dom tso gbedoxɔ la me la, eƒe nusrɔ̃lawo dometɔ ɖeka gblɔ nɛ be, “Nufiala, kpɔ ale si xɔ siawo nya kpɔe la ɖa. Kpɔ ale si wotsɔ kpe gã vovovowo ɖo gliawoe la ɖa.”
And as he is going forth out of the temple, one of his disciples saith to him, 'Teacher, see! what stones! and what buildings!'
2 Yesu ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Èkpɔ xɔ gã siawoa? Mele egblɔm na mi be wole wo gbã ge gudugudu, eye kpe ɖeka pɛ hã masusɔ ɖe nɔvia dzi o.”
and Jesus answering said to him, 'Seest thou these great buildings? there may not be left a stone upon a stone, that may not be thrown down.'
3 Azɔ eɖanɔ anyi ɖe Amito la dzi afi si dze ŋgɔ gbedoxɔ la. Petro, Yakobo, Yohanes kple Andrea koe nɔ egbɔ le afi sia. Wobiae be,
And as he is sitting at the mount of the Olives, over-against the temple, Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, were questioning him by himself,
4 “Ɣe ka ɣie nu siawo le dzɔdzɔ ge? Míakpɔ dzesi aɖe do ŋgɔ si ana míanya be nu siawo le dzɔdzɔ gea?”
'Tell us when these things shall be? and what [is] the sign when all these may be about to be fulfilled?'
5 Yesu gblɔ na wo be, “Migana ame aɖeke nable mi ne miatra mɔ o.
And Jesus answering them, began to say, 'Take heed lest any one may lead you astray,
6 Ame geɖewo ava agblɔ na mi be yewoe nye Kristo la, eye woakplɔ ame geɖewo atra mɔe.
for many shall come in my name, saying — I am [he], and many they shall lead astray;
7 Ne miese aʋawɔwɔwo kple aʋaɣliwo la, ŋɔ megadzi mi o. Ele be nu siawo tɔgbi nava eme, gake nuwuwu la meɖo haɖe o.
and when ye may hear of wars and reports of wars, be not troubled, for these behove to be, but the end [is] not yet;
8 Dukɔ atsi tsitre ɖe dukɔ ŋu, eye fiaɖuƒe atsi tsitre ɖe fiaɖuƒe ŋu, anyigba aʋuʋu le teƒe geɖewo, gawu la, dɔ ato le teƒe aɖewo, gake esiawo katã anye nu siwo do ŋɔ na fukpekpe gã siwo le vava ge la ko.”
for nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles; beginnings of sorrows [are] these.
9 Yesu yi edzi be, “Miawo minɔ ŋudzɔ vevie, elabena woahe mi ayi ʋɔnudrɔ̃ƒewo, eye woaƒo mi le ƒuƒoƒewo. Woahe mi ayi dukplɔlawo kple fiawo gbɔe le nye ŋkɔ la ta, be miegblɔ nyanyui la na wo.
'And take ye heed to yourselves, for they shall deliver you up to sanhedrims, and to synagogues, ye shall be beaten, and before governors and kings ye shall be set for my sake, for a testimony to them;
10 Ke ele be dukɔ ɖe sia ɖe nase nyanyui la hafi nuwuwuŋkeke la naɖo.
and to all the nations it behoveth first that the good news be proclaimed.
11 Nenye be wolé mi yi ʋɔnui la, migatsi dzi le nya siwo miatsɔ aʋli mia ɖokuiwo tae la ŋu o. Migblɔ nya sia nya si Mawu de nu na mi la ko, elabena menye mia ŋutɔwoe le nu ƒo ge o, ke boŋ Gbɔgbɔ Kɔkɔe lae.”
'And when they may lead you, delivering up, be not anxious beforehand what ye may speak, nor premeditate, but whatever may be given to you in that hour, that speak ye, for it is not ye who are speaking, but the Holy Spirit.
12 Yesu yi edzi be, “Le ɣeyiɣi siawo me la, nɔvi ŋutɔ ahe nɔvia ade ku me. Fofowo ade woawo ŋutɔ ƒe viwo asi eye viwo hã ade woawo ŋutɔ fofowo asi be woawu.
'And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child, and children shall rise up against parents, and shall put them to death,
13 Ke miawo la, ame sia ame alé fu mi elabena mienye tɔnyewo, gake meka ɖe edzi na mi be, ame siwo katã ado dzi va se ɖe nuwuwu la akpɔ ɖeɖe.
and ye shall be hated by all because of my name, but he who hath endured to the end — he shall be saved.
14 “Nenye be miekpɔ ŋunyɔnu si gbãa aƒe wòle tsitre ɖe afi si mele be wòanɔ o la, nɔvi nuxlẽla, se egɔme ekema ame siwo le Yudea la nasi ayi towo dzi.
'And when ye may see the abomination of the desolation, that was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (whoever is reading let him understand), then those in Judea, let them flee to the mountains;
15 Ame si le eƒe xɔta la megaɖi va anyigba alo age ɖe eƒe xɔ me be yeatsɔ naneke o.
and he upon the house-top, let him not come down to the house, nor come in to take anything out of his house;
16 Ame si le agble me la megatrɔ va tsɔ eƒe awu o.
and he who is in the field, let him not turn to the things behind, to take up his garment.
17 “Baba na nyɔnu siwo fɔ fu le ŋkeke mawo me kple nyɔnu siwo si vi nonowo le.
'And woe to those with child, and to those giving suck, in those days;
18 Mido gbe ɖa vevie be miaƒe sisiɣi meganye vuvɔŋɔli me o,
and pray ye that your flight may not be in winter,
19 elabena ŋkeke mawo anye ŋkeke siwo ƒomevi meva kpɔ tso keke ɣeyiɣi si me Mawu wɔ xexea me va se ɖe fifia o. Eye ŋkeke siawo ƒomevi hã mava ɣe aɖeke ɣi le esia megbe o.
for those days shall be tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the creation that God created, till now, and may not be;
20 Nenye Mawu ɖe meto ŋkeke vɔ̃ɖi siawo ɖe eme o la, anye ne ame ɖeka pɛ teti hã masusɔ ɖe anyigba dzi o. Gake le eya ŋutɔ ƒe ame tiatiawo ta la, eto ŋkekeawo ɖe eme.
and if the Lord did not shorten the days, no flesh had been saved; but because of the chosen, whom He did choose to Himself, He did shorten the days.
21 “Nenye be ame aɖe gblɔ na mi be, ‘Kristo lae nye esi alo eyae nye ekemɛ la,’ migake nu dee o
'And then, if any may say to you, Lo, here [is] the Christ, or, Lo, there, ye may not believe;
22 elabena aʋatsokristotɔwo kple aʋatsonyagblɔɖilawo ava do, eye woawɔ nukunu gã siwo dzi Mawu ƒe ame tiatiawo gɔ̃ hã ate ŋu axɔ ase.
for there shall rise false Christs and false prophets, and they shall give signs and wonders, to seduce, if possible, also the chosen;
23 Eya ta mikpɔ nyuie! Megblɔe na mi do ŋgɔ!
and ye, take heed; lo, I have foretold you all things.
24 “Le fukpekpe gã ma megbe la, “‘Ɣe ado viviti, eye ɣleti hã magaɖi o.
'But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
25 Ɣletiviwo age tso dziƒo, eye ŋusẽ siwo le dziƒo la aʋuʋu.’
and the stars of the heaven shall be falling, and the powers that are in the heavens shall be shaken.
26 “Le ɣe ma ɣi me la, amewo akpɔ Amegbetɔ Vi la wòava le lilikpowo me kple ŋusẽ gã kple ŋutikɔkɔe.
'And then they shall see the Son of Man coming in clouds with much power and glory,
27 Adɔ mawudɔlawo be woaƒo ame siwo katã nye etɔwo le xexe bliboa me la nu ƒu tso keke anyigba ƒe dzogoe eneawo dzi va se ɖe dziƒo ƒe nuwuwu ke.
and then he shall send his messengers, and gather together his chosen from the four winds, from the end of the earth unto the end of heaven.
28 “Mitsɔ gboti abe kpɔɖeŋu ene. Nenye be tsi ɖo eƒe alɔwo me eye aŋgba fɛ̃wo ke, eye aŋgbawo ŋutɔ de asi dodo me la; ekema mienya enumake be dzomeŋɔli ɖo.
'And from the fig-tree learn ye the simile: when the branch may already become tender, and may put forth the leaves, ye know that nigh is the summer;
29 Eya ta ne miekpɔ be nu siwo katã megblɔ la le dzɔdzɔm la, minyae be nye vava zi evelia gogo eye nye afɔ le miaƒe agbowo nu.”
so ye, also, when these ye may see coming to pass, ye know that it is nigh, at the doors.
30 Vavã mele egblɔm na mi be, dzidzime sia nu mele yiyi ge, va se ɖe esime nu siawo katã nava eme o.
Verily I say to you, that this generation may not pass away till all these things may come to pass;
31 Dziƒo kple anyigba nu ava yi, gake nye nyawo nu mele yiyi ge akpɔ o.
the heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
32 “Ke hã la, ame aɖeke menya ŋkeke alo gaƒoƒo si tututu nu siawo ava eme o. Mawudɔla siwo le dziƒo hã menya o, Nye, Vi la gɔ̃ hã nyemenya o, negbe Fofo la ko.
'And concerning that day and the hour no one hath known — not even the messengers who are in the heaven, not even the Son — except the Father.
33 Mikpɔ nyuie, minɔ ŋudzɔ, elabena mienya ɣeyiɣi si me nu siawo ava eme o.
Take heed, watch and pray, for ye have not known when the time is;
34 “Nye vava zi evelia anɔ abe ame aɖe si yi nugbe le anyigba didi aɖe dzi ene. Hafi wòadzo le aƒe ayi la, ede dɔ asi na eƒe dɔwɔla ɖe sia ɖe eye wògblɔ na eƒe agbonudzɔla be wòanɔ ŋudzɔ na yeƒe tɔtrɔ gbɔ.”
as a man who is gone abroad, having left his house, and given to his servants the authority, and to each one his work, did command also the porter that he may watch;
35 Eya ta minɔ ŋudzɔ elabena mienya ɣeyiɣi si aƒea tɔ atrɔ agbɔ o, eɖanye fiẽ alo zãtitina alo koklo ƒe atɔkuɣi alo ŋdi kanyaa o.
watch ye, therefore, for ye have not known when the lord of the house doth come, at even, or at midnight, or at cock-crowing, or at the morning;
36 Ale be ne eva kpata la, makpɔ mi mianɔ alɔ̃ dɔm o.
lest, having come suddenly, he may find you sleeping;
37 Nu si megblɔ na mi la, eya ke mele gbɔgblɔm na ame sia ame be, “Minɔ ŋudzɔ!”
and what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.'
