< Mariko 13 >

1 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ oimaga hekarũ-inĩ, ũmwe wa arutwo ake akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Mũrutani, ta rora! Mahiga maya kaĩ nĩ manene-ĩ! Kaĩ nyũmba ici nĩ thaka-ĩ!”
And as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples says to him, Teacher, see what stones and what buildings!
2 Nake Jesũ akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩũrona nyũmba ici nene ũũ? Gũtirĩ ihiga o na rĩmwe rĩa maya rĩgaakorwo rĩrĩ igũrũ wa rĩrĩa rĩngĩ; mothe nĩmakamomorwo.”
And Jesus answering said to him, Seest thou these great buildings? not a stone shall be left upon a stone, which shall not be thrown down.
3 Rĩrĩa Jesũ aikarĩte thĩ kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ angʼetheire hekarũ-rĩ, Petero na Jakubu na Johana na Anderea makĩmũũria marĩ keheri-inĩ atĩrĩ,
And as he sat on the mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
4 “Ta twĩre, maũndũ macio mageekĩka rĩ? Na kĩmenyithia atĩ maũndũ macio marĩ hakuhĩ gwĩkĩka nĩ kĩrĩkũ?”
Tell us, when shall these things be, and what is the sign when all these things are going to be fulfilled?
5 Nake Jesũ akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanaheenio nĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ.
And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any one mislead you.
6 Andũ aingĩ nĩ magooka na rĩĩtwa rĩakwa makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ nĩ niĩ Kristũ,’ na nĩmakaheenia andũ aingĩ.
For many shall come in my name, saying, It is I, and shall mislead many.
7 Rĩrĩa mũkaigua mbaara na mũhuhu wa mbaara mũtikanamake. Maũndũ ta macio no nginya mekĩke, no rĩrĩ, ithirĩro ti rĩkinyu.
But when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be not disturbed, for [this] must happen, but the end is not yet.
8 Rũrĩrĩ nĩrũgookĩrĩra rũrĩa rũngĩ, na ũthamaki ũũkĩrĩre ũthamaki ũrĩa ũngĩ. Nĩgũkaagĩa na ithingithia kũndũ na kũndũ, o na kũgĩe ngʼaragu. Maũndũ maya nĩ kĩambĩrĩria kĩa ruo ta rwa mũndũ-wa-nja akĩrũmwo.
For nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be earthquakes in [different] places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these things [are the] beginnings of throes.
9 “No inyuĩ-rĩ, ikaragai mwĩiguĩte. Nĩmũkaneanwo kũrĩ ciama cia athuuri na mũhũũrwo iboko thĩinĩ wa thunagogi. Nĩmũkarũgama mbere ya aathani na athamaki nĩ ũndũ wakwa, mũtuĩke aira akwa kũrĩ o.
But ye, take heed to yourselves, for they shall deliver you up to sanhedrims and to synagogues: ye shall be beaten and brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them;
10 Naguo Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega no nginya wambe ũhunjio kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ ciothe.
and the gospel must first be preached to all the nations.
11 Rĩrĩa rĩothe mũkaanyiitwo mũtwarwo mũgaciirithio, mũtikanetange mũgĩĩciiria ũrĩa mũkoiga. Inyuĩ mũkoiga o ũrĩa mũkaahotithio hĩndĩ ĩyo, nĩgũkorwo ti inyuĩ mũgaakorwo mũkĩaria, no nĩ Roho mũtheru.
But when they shall lead you away to deliver you up, be not careful beforehand as to what ye shall say, [nor prepare your discourse]: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak; for ye are not the speakers, but the Holy Spirit.
12 “Mũndũ nĩagakunyanĩra mũrũ wa nyina ooragwo, na ithe wa mũndũ akunyanĩre mwana wake, o na ciana nĩikaremera aciari a cio na imoragithie.
But brother shall deliver up brother to death, and father child; and children shall rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death.
13 Andũ othe nĩmakamũmena nĩ ũndũ wakwa, no ũrĩa ũgaakirĩrĩria nginya hĩndĩ ya mũthia nĩakahonoka.
And ye will be hated of all on account of my name; but he that has endured to the end, he shall be saved.
14 “Rĩrĩa mũkoona kĩrĩa kĩrĩ thaahu na gĩa kũrehe ihooru kĩarũgama harĩa gĩtagĩrĩirwo nĩ kũrũgama-rĩ, (ũrĩa ũrathoma nĩamenye ũhoro ũcio), hĩndĩ ĩyo arĩa marĩ Judea nĩmoorĩre irĩma-inĩ.
But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation standing where it should not, (he that reads let him consider [it], ) then let those in Judaea flee to the mountains;
15 Mũndũ ũrĩa wothe ũgaakorwo arĩ nyũmba yake igũrũ ndakanaharũrũke kana atoonye kũruta kĩndũ nyũmba.
and him that is upon the housetop not come down into the house, nor enter [into it] to take away anything out of his house;
16 Nake mũndũ ũrĩa ũgaakorwo arĩ mũgũnda ndagacooke mũciĩ kũgĩĩra nguo ciake.
and him that is in the field not return back to take his garment.
17 Kaĩ atumia arĩa magaakorwo marĩ na nda na arĩa magaakorwo makĩongithia hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmagakorwo marĩ na haaro-ĩ!
But woe to those that are with child and to those that give suck in those days!
18 Hooyagai Ngai atĩ maũndũ macio matikanakinye hĩndĩ ya heho,
And pray that it may not be in winter time;
19 nĩ ũndũ matukũ macio gũgaakorwo na mĩnyamaro ĩtarĩ yoneka ĩngĩ tayo kuuma kĩambĩrĩria rĩrĩa Ngai ombire thĩ nginya rĩu, na gũtikoneka ĩngĩ tayo.
for those days shall be distress such as there has not been the like since [the] beginning of creation which God created, until now, and never shall be;
20 Tiga Mwathani anyihanyiihirie matukũ macio, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩgatigara. No tondũ wa andũ ake arĩa aamũre, matukũ macio nĩmagakuhĩhio.
and if [the] Lord had not cut short those days, no flesh should have been saved; but on account of the elect whom he has chosen, he has cut short those days.
21 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkamwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Kristũ arĩ haha!’ kana amwĩre atĩrĩ, ‘Kristũ arĩ haarĩa!’ mũtikanetĩkie ũhoro ũcio.
And then if any one say to you, Lo, here [is] the Christ, or Lo, there, believe [it] not.
22 Nĩgũkorwo Kristũ a maheeni na anabii a maheeni nĩmakeyumĩria monanie morirũ na maringe ciama nĩguo mahĩtithie andũ arĩa aamũre, korwo no kũhoteke.
For false Christs and false prophets will arise, and give signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.
23 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio-rĩ, ikaragai mwĩiguĩte tondũ nĩndamwĩra maũndũ mothe mbere ya ihinda rĩtanakinya.
But do ye take heed: behold, I have told you all things beforehand.
24 “No ihinda-inĩ rĩu, thuutha wa maũndũ macio ma mĩnyamaro, “‘riũa nĩrĩkagĩa nduma, naguo mweri ndũkaara;
But in those days, after that distress, the sun shall be darkened and the moon shall not give its light;
25 njata nacio nĩikaagũa kuuma igũrũ, namo maahinya ma igũrũ nĩmakenyenyio.’
and the stars of heaven shall be falling down, and the powers which are in the heavens shall be shaken;
26 “Hĩndĩ ĩyo andũ nĩ makoona Mũrũ wa Mũndũ agĩũka arĩ thĩinĩ wa matu, arĩ na hinya mũingĩ mũno o na riiri.
and then shall they see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory;
27 Nake nĩagatũma araika ake macookanĩrĩrie andũ ake arĩa aamũre kuuma mĩena ĩna ĩrĩa yumaga rũhuho, o na kuuma ituri ciothe cia thĩ na cia igũrũ.
and then shall he send his angels and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from end of earth to end of heaven.
28 “Na rĩrĩ, mwĩrutei na mũkũyũ: Rĩrĩa honge ciaguo ciarĩkia gũthundũra na ciaruta mathangũ-rĩ, nĩmũmenyaga atĩ hĩndĩ ya riũa ĩrĩ hakuhĩ.
But learn the parable from the fig-tree: when its branch already becomes tender and puts forth the leaves, ye know that the summer is near.
29 Ũguo noguo, rĩrĩa mũkoona maũndũ macio magĩĩkĩka mũkaamenya ihinda rĩrĩ hakuhĩ, rĩrĩ o mũromo-inĩ.
Thus also ye, when ye see these things happening, know that it is near, at the doors.
30 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, rũciaro rũrũ rũtigaathira nginya maũndũ macio mothe makaahingio.
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall in no wise pass away, till all these things take place.
31 Igũrũ na thĩ nĩigathira, no ciugo ciakwa itigathira.
The heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words shall in no wise pass away.
32 “Gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ ũũĩ ũhoro wa mũthenya ũcio kana ithaa rĩu, o na araika a igũrũ matiũĩ, o na Mũriũ ndooĩ, tiga Ithe wiki!
But of that day or of that hour no one knows, neither the angels who are in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father.
33 Ikaragai mwĩiguĩte! Ikaragai mwĩhũgĩte! Mũtiũĩ rĩrĩa ihinda rĩu rĩgaakinya.
Take heed, watch and pray, for ye do not know when the time is:
34 Gũkahaana ta mũndũ ũgũthiĩ rũgendo ũrĩa atigaga egaĩra ndungata ciake irorage mũciĩ, o ndungata akamĩhe wĩra wayo, na agatiga atha mũikaria wa mũrango o nake aikarage ehũũgĩte.
[it is] as a man gone out of the country, having left his house and given to his bondmen the authority, and to each one his work, and commanded the doorkeeper that he should watch.
35 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ikaragai mwĩiguĩte tondũ mũtiũĩ rĩrĩa mwene mũciĩ agacooka, kana agooka hwaĩ-inĩ, kana ũtukũ gatagatĩ, kana ngũkũ ĩkĩgamba, o na kana gũgĩthererũka.
Watch therefore, for ye do not know when the master of the house comes: evening, or midnight, or cock-crow, or morning;
36 O rĩrĩa angĩũka-rĩ, mũtikanareke amũkore mwĩrigĩtwo.
lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
37 Ũguo ngũmwĩra, noguo ngwĩra andũ othe, atĩrĩ, ‘Ikaragai mwĩiguĩte’.”
But what I say to you, I say to all, Watch.
