< Luka 21 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, aatiira maitho, Jesũ akĩona itonga igĩĩkĩra mĩhothi yao harĩa heekagĩrwo kĩgĩĩna kĩa hekarũ.
And looking up, He saw the rich casting their gifts into the treasury.
2 Agĩcooka akĩona mũtumia mũthĩĩni, warĩ wa ndigwa, agĩĩkĩra tũthendi twĩrĩ o ho thĩinĩ.
And He also saw a certain poor widow, casting in thither two mites.
3 Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, mũtumia ũyũ mũthĩĩni wa ndigwa nĩahotha mbeeca nyingĩ gũkĩra andũ arĩa angĩ othe.
And He said; Truly I say unto you, That this poor widow cast in more than all.
4 Andũ acio angĩ othe maaheana kũringana na ũtonga wao; no mũtumia ũyũ o na arĩ mũthĩĩni, ahotha kĩrĩa gĩothe oima nakĩo gĩa kũmũtũũria.”
For they all of that which abounds unto them cast into the gifts of God: but she out of her scarcity cast in all her living which she had.
5 Na rĩrĩ, arutwo amwe ake nĩmaragia ũhoro wa hekarũ, ũrĩa yagemetio na mahiga mathaka na iheo iria ciarutĩirwo Ngai. No Jesũ akiuga atĩrĩ,
And certain ones speaking concerning the temple, that it was ornamented with beautiful stones and offerings, He said,
6 “Ha ũhoro wa mĩako ĩno mũrona-rĩ, hĩndĩ nĩĩroka rĩrĩa gũtagakorwo ihiga rĩrĩ igũrũ wa rĩrĩa rĩngĩ; mothe nĩmakamomorwo.”
These things which you see, the days will come, in which stone will not be left upon stone, which shall not be thrown down.
7 Nao makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, nĩ rĩ maũndũ macio magekĩka? Na kĩmenyithia kĩa atĩ marĩ hakuhĩ gwĩkĩka nĩ kĩrĩkũ?”
And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, when then shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when these things may be about to come to pass?
8 Nake akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanaheenio. Nĩgũkorwo andũ aingĩ nĩmagooka na rĩĩtwa rĩakwa makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ niĩ We,’ na ningĩ mamwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Ihinda nĩrĩkuhĩrĩirie.’ Mũtikanamarũmĩrĩre.
And He said, See that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, saying, I am He; and The time is at hand: go ye not after them.
9 Rĩrĩa mũkaigua ũhoro wa mbaara na wa ngũĩ, mũtikanetigĩre. Maũndũ macio no nginya mekĩke mbere, no ũguo ti kuuga ithirĩro nĩikinyu.”
And when ye may hear of wars and commotions, be not affrighted: for it behooveth these things first to take place; but the end is not immediately.
10 Agĩcooka akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Rũrĩrĩ nĩrũgookĩrĩra rũrĩa rũngĩ, na ũthamaki ũũkĩrĩre ũrĩa ũngĩ.
Then He said to them, Nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11 Nĩgũkaagĩa na ithingithia nene mũno, na ngʼaragu, na mĩrimũ mĩũru kũndũ na kũndũ, na maũndũ ma kũmakania na imenyithia nene kuuma igũrũ.
and there shall be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in divers places; and there shall be great terrors and signs from heaven.
12 “No maũndũ macio mothe matanakinya-rĩ, nĩmũkanyiitwo, na mũnyariirwo na mũneanwo thunagogi-inĩ na njeera o na mũtwarwo mbere ya athamaki na aathani. Maũndũ macio mothe mũgeekwo nĩ ũndũ wa rĩĩtwa rĩakwa.
And before all of these things, they will lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you into their synagogues and prisons, led before kings and governors on account of my name.
13 Ũndũ ũyũ ũgaakorwo ũrĩ mweke wanyu wa kũmarutĩra ũira.
And it shall come to pass to you for a testimony.
14 No rĩrĩ, mũtikanatangĩke mũgĩĩciiria o mbere, ũrĩa mũgeeciirĩrĩra.
Place it in your hearts, not to premeditate your defense:
15 Nĩgũkorwo nĩngamũhe ciugo na ũũgĩ iria thũ cianyu itakahota gwĩtiiria kana gũkararia.
for I will give to you mouth and wisdom, which all who are opposed to you will not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16 Nĩmũgakunyanĩrwo o na nĩ aciari anyu, na arĩa mũciaranĩirwo nao, na andũ a mbarĩ cianyu, o na arata, na nĩmakooragithia amwe anyu.
And you shall be delivered up also by your parents, and brothers, and relatives, and friends; and they will kill some of you.
17 Andũ othe nĩmakamũmena nĩ ũndũ wakwa.
And you shall be hated by all, on account of my name:
18 No rĩrĩ, gũtirĩ rũcuĩrĩ o na rũmwe rwa mũtwe wanyu rũkoora.
and not a hair from your head shall perish.
19 Kũũmĩrĩria kwanyu nĩkuo gũgaatũma mũhonokie mĩoyo yanyu.
In your patience gain your souls.
20 “Rĩrĩa mũkoona Jerusalemu kũrigiicĩirio nĩ thigari cia mbaara, hĩndĩ ĩyo mũkaamenya atĩ kũniinwo kwarĩo kũrĩ hakuhĩ.
And when you may see Jerusalem shut up by the armies, then know that her desolation is nigh.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo arĩa marĩ Judea nĩmorĩre irĩma-inĩ, na arĩa marĩ thĩinĩ wa itũũra rĩu inene nĩmoime kuo, nao arĩa marĩ ngʼongo-inĩ matikarĩtoonye.
Then let those in Judea fly to the mountains; and let those in the midst of it depart out; and let not those in the country come into it.
22 Nĩgũkorwo ihinda rĩu nĩrĩo rĩgaakorwo rĩrĩ rĩa kũherithanio, nĩguo maũndũ marĩa mothe mandĩkĩtwo mahingio.
Because these are the days of vengeance, to fill up all things which have been written.
23 Kaĩ atumia arĩa magaakorwo marĩ na nda, na arĩa magaakorwo makĩongithia twana matukũ macio nĩmagathĩĩnĩka-ĩ! Nĩgũkorwo bũrũri ũyũ nĩũkagĩa na kĩnyariirĩko kĩnene na mangʼũrĩ ma gũũkĩrĩra andũ aya.
But alas to those in gestation and nursing in those days! For there shall be great distress upon the earth, and wrath to this people.
24 Nĩmakooragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora, o na matahwo matwarwo mabũrũri mothe ma thĩ. Itũũra rĩa Jerusalemu nĩrĩkarangĩrĩrio nĩ andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ o nginya mahinda ma andũ-a-Ndũrĩrĩ mahingio.
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and be led captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles may be fulfilled.
25 “Na nĩgũkagĩa imenyithia thĩinĩ wa riũa na mweri-inĩ na njata-inĩ. Nakuo gũkũ thĩ, ndũrĩrĩ nĩikaigua ruo na igegio nĩ mũrurumo wa iria na makũmbĩ ma maaĩ makĩhũũrana.
And there will be signs in the sun and in the moon and in the stars; and commotion of the nations of the earth in their perplexity, the sea and the wave roaring;
26 Andũ nĩmakaringĩka nĩ ũndũ wa kũmaka, na guoya wa maũndũ marĩa magooka thĩ, nĩgũkorwo maahinya ma igũrũ nĩmakenyenyio.
the souls of men failing from fear, and expectation of those things coming upon the world: for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmakona Mũrũ wa Mũndũ agĩũka arĩ thĩinĩ wa itu arĩ na hinya na riiri mũingĩ.
And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa maũndũ macio makaambĩrĩria gwĩkĩka-rĩ, mũkaarũgama mũtiire mĩtwe yanyu na igũrũ, nĩgũkorwo hĩndĩ yanyu ya gũkũũrwo nĩĩkuhĩrĩirie.”
And these things beginning to take place, straighten up, and lift up your heads; because your redemption is nigh.
29 Ningĩ akĩmahe ngerekano ĩno: “Ta rorai mũtĩ wa mũkũyũ na mĩtĩ ĩyo ĩngĩ yothe.
And He spoke a parable to them: Behold the fig-tree, and all the trees:
30 Rĩrĩa yathundũra mathangũ, mũmĩonaga na mũkamenya atĩ ihinda rĩa riũa rĩrĩ hakuhĩ.
when they may already put forth, seeing, know for yourselves that summer is nigh.
31 Ũguo noguo hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũkoona maũndũ macio mothe magĩkĩka, mũkaamenya o wega atĩ ũthamaki wa Ngai nĩũkuhĩrĩirie.
So you also, when you see these things take place, know that the kingdom of God is nigh.
32 “Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, rũciaro rũrũ rũtigathira maũndũ macio mothe matahingĩtio.
Truly I say unto you, that this race may not pass away, until all these things shall be fulfilled.
33 Igũrũ na thĩ nĩigathira, no ciugo ciakwa itigathira.
But heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word can not pass away.
34 “Mwĩmenyererei, ngoro cianyu itikanakorwo itahĩtwo nĩ ndĩa, na ũrĩĩu na metanga ma muoyo ũyũ, naguo mũthenya ũcio ũmũkorerere ta mũtego o rĩrĩa mũtangĩĩgereria.
But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts may be burdened with luxury, and drunkenness, and worldly cares, and that day may come on you unanticipated.
35 Nĩgũkorwo ũndũ ũyũ ũgaakorerera andũ arĩa othe matũũraga thĩ-ĩno.
For as a lasso it will come upon all the people who are sitting down upon the face of the whole earth.
36 Ikaragai mwĩiguĩte hĩndĩ ciothe, na mũhooyage nĩguo mũkaahota kũũrĩra maũndũ marĩa makiriĩ gwĩkĩka, na nĩguo mũkaahota kũrũgama mbere ya Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.”
Therefore watch, praying all the time, that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things which are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
37 Na o mũthenya Jesũ nĩarutanaga hekarũ-inĩ, na hwaĩ-inĩ agathiĩ gũkoma kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩrĩa gĩĩtagwo Kĩrĩma kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ.
And He was teaching in the temple during the days; and during the nights going out, He was lodging in the mountain called Mount of Olives.
38 Nao andũ othe nĩmathiiaga hekarũ-inĩ rũciinĩ tene kũmũthikĩrĩria.
And all the people gathered in the temple to hear Him.
