Mathayo 24
1 Nake Jesũ akiuma hekarũ, na rĩrĩa aathiiaga arutwo ake magĩũka kũrĩ we nĩguo mamuonie mĩako ya hekarũ.
And having gone forth, Jesus departed from the temple, and His disciples came near to show Him the buildings of the temple,
2 Akĩmooria atĩrĩ, “Nĩmũkuona indo ici ciothe? Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, gũtirĩ ihiga o na rĩmwe rĩa maya rĩgaakorwo rĩrĩ igũrũ wa rĩrĩa rĩngĩ; mothe nĩmakamomorwo.”
and Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these? Truly I say to you, there may not be left here a stone on a stone that will not be thrown down.”
3 Na rĩrĩa Jesũ aikarĩte thĩ Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Mĩtamaiyũ-rĩ, arutwo ake magĩũka harĩ we hatarĩ andũ angĩ, makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ta twĩre, maũndũ macio mageekĩka rĩ, na kĩmenyithia gĩa gũcooka gwaku na kĩa mũthia wa mahinda maya nĩ kĩrĩkũ?” (aiōn g165)
And when He is sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came near to Him by Himself, saying, “Tell us, when will these be? And what [is] the sign of Your coming, and of the full end of the age?” (aiōn g165)
4 Nake Jesũ akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Mwĩmenyagĩrĩrei mũtikanaheenio nĩ mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ.
And Jesus answering said to them, “Take heed that no one may lead you astray,
5 Nĩgũkorwo andũ aingĩ nĩmagooka na rĩĩtwa rĩakwa, makiugaga atĩrĩ, ‘Niĩ nĩ niĩ Kristũ,’ na nĩ makaheenia andũ aingĩ.
for many will come in My Name, saying, I am the Christ, and they will lead many astray,
6 Nĩmũkaigua ũhoro wa mbaara, na mũhuhu ũkoniĩ mbaara, no inyuĩ mũtikanamake. Maũndũ ta macio no nginya mageekĩka, no ithirĩro ti rĩkinyu.
and you will begin to hear of wars, and reports of wars; see, do not be troubled, for it is necessary for all [these] to come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 Rũrĩrĩ nĩrũgookĩrĩra rũrĩa rũngĩ, na ũthamaki ũũkĩrĩre ũrĩa ũngĩ. Nĩgũkaagĩa ngʼaragu na ithingithia kũndũ na kũndũ.
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in various places;
8 Maũndũ macio mothe nĩ kĩambĩrĩria kĩa ruo ta rwa mũndũ-wa-nja akĩrũmwo agĩe mwana.
and all these [are the] beginning of travails;
9 “Ningĩ nĩmũkaneanwo mũnyariirwo na mũũragwo, na mũmenwo nĩ ndũrĩrĩ ciothe nĩ ũndũ wakwa.
then they will deliver you up to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all the nations because of My Name;
10 Hĩndĩ ĩyo-rĩ, andũ aingĩ nĩmagatiganĩria wĩtĩkio na makunyananĩre mũndũ na ũrĩa ũngĩ, na mamenane.
and then will many be stumbled, and they will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
11 Na anabii aingĩ a maheeni nĩmakoimĩra na nĩmakaheenia andũ aingĩ.
And many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray;
12 Na tondũ waganu nĩũkaingĩha mũno-rĩ, wendani wa andũ aingĩ nĩũkanyiiha,
and because of the abounding of the lawlessness, the love of the many will become cold;
13 no ũrĩa ũgaakirĩrĩria nginya hĩndĩ ya ithirĩro-rĩ, ũcio nĩakahonoka.
but he who endured to the end, he will be saved;
14 Naguo Ũhoro-ũyũ-Mwega wa ũthamaki nĩũkahunjio thĩ yothe ũtuĩke ũira kũrĩ ndũrĩrĩ ciothe, na thuutha ũcio ithirĩro rĩkinye.
and this good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the world, for a testimony to all the nations, and then will the end arrive.
15 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio rĩrĩa mũkoona ‘kĩndũ kĩrĩa kĩrĩ thaahu na gĩa kũrehe ihooru’ kĩrũgamĩte Handũ-harĩa-Hatheru, o kĩrĩa kĩarĩtio na kanua ka mũnabii Danieli (ũrĩa ũrathoma nĩamenye ũhoro ũcio),
Whenever, therefore, you may see the abomination of the desolation, that was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (whoever is reading let him observe)
16 hĩndĩ ĩyo arĩa marĩ Judea nĩmorĩre irĩma-inĩ.
then those in Judea—let them flee to the mountains;
17 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ nyũmba yake igũrũ ndakaharũrũke atĩ akarute kĩndũ kuuma nyũmba yake.
he on the housetop—do not let him come down to take up anything out of his house;
18 Nake ũrĩa wĩ mũgũnda ndagacooke mũciĩ kũgĩĩra nguo ciake.
and he in the field—do not let him turn back to take his garments.
19 Kaĩ atumia arĩa magaakorwo na nda na arĩa magaakorwo makĩongithia hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩmagakorwo na thĩĩna-ĩ!
And woe to those with child, and to those giving suck in those days;
20 Hooyai nĩguo gwĩthara kwanyu gũtikanakorwo kũrĩ hĩndĩ ya heho kana mũthenya wa Thabatũ.
and pray that your flight may not be in winter, nor on a Sabbath;
21 Nĩgũkorwo hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩgũkagĩa na mĩnyamaro mĩnene, ĩtarĩ yoneka kuuma kĩambĩrĩria gĩa thĩ nginya rĩu, na ĩtakooneka rĩngĩ.
for there will then be great tribulation, such as was not from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor may be.
22 Na tiga matukũ macio makuhĩhirio-rĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩkaahonoka, no nĩ tondũ wa andũ arĩa aamũre, matukũ macio nĩmagakuhĩhio.
And if those days were not shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but because of the chosen will those days be shortened.
23 Hĩndĩ ĩyo mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkamwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Kristũ arĩ na haha!’ kana, ‘Arĩ harĩa!’ Mũtikanetĩkie ũhoro ũcio.
Then if anyone may say to you, Behold, here [is] the Christ! Or, Here! You may not believe;
24 Nĩgũkorwo Kristũ a maheeni na anabii a maheeni nĩmakeyumĩria monanie morirũ manene na maringe ciama, nĩguo maheenie o na arĩa aamũre, korwo no kũhoteke.
for there will arise false Christs, and false prophets, and they will give great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, also the chosen.
25 Na rĩrĩ, inyuĩ ndaamũmenyithia ũhoro ũcio mbere ya hĩndĩ ĩyo.
Behold, I told you beforehand.
26 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio mũndũ o na ũrĩkũ angĩkamwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Arĩ werũ-inĩ,’ mũtikanathiĩ kuo; kana angĩmwĩra, ‘Arĩ nyũmba thĩinĩ,’ mũtikanetĩkie ũhoro ũcio.
If therefore they may say to you, Behold, He is in the wilderness, you may not go forth; Behold, in the inner chambers, you may not believe;
27 Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa rũheni ruumĩte irathĩro ruonekaga ithũĩro-rĩ, ũguo noguo gũũka kwa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ gũgaakorwo kũhaana.
for as the lightning comes forth from the east, and appears to the west, so will also be the coming of the Son of Man;
28 Harĩa hothe harĩ kĩimba, hau nĩho nderi ciũnganaga.
for wherever the carcass may be, there the eagles will be gathered together.
29 “Na rĩrĩ, o rĩmwe thuutha wa mĩnyamaro ya matukũ macio, “‘riũa nĩrĩkagĩa nduma, naguo mweri ũtige kwara; nacio njata nĩikaagũa kuuma igũrũ, namo maahinya ma igũrũ nĩmakenyenyio.’
And immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;
30 “Hĩndĩ ĩyo kĩmenyithia kĩa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ nĩgĩkooneka kũu igũrũ, na ndũrĩrĩ ciothe cia thĩ nĩigacakaya. Nĩikoona Mũrũ wa Mũndũ agĩũka arĩ igũrũ rĩa matu, na arĩ na hinya na riiri mũingĩ.
and then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in the sky; and then will all the tribes of the earth strike the breast, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of Heaven, with power and much glory;
31 Nake nĩagatũma araika ake na mũgambo mũnene wa karumbeta, nao nĩmakoongania arĩa ake aamũre moimĩte mĩena ĩna ĩrĩa yumaga rũhuho, kuuma gĩturi kĩmwe kĩa igũrũ nginya kĩrĩa kĩngĩ.
and He will send His messengers with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His chosen from the four winds, from the ends of the heavens to the ends thereof.
32 “Na rĩrĩ, mwĩrutei na mũkũyũ: Rĩrĩa honge ciaguo ciarĩkia gũthundũka na ciaruta mathangũ-rĩ, nĩmũmenyaga atĩ hĩndĩ ya riũa ĩrĩ hakuhĩ.
And from the fig tree learn the allegory: when its branch may have already become tender, and it may put forth the leaves, you know that summer [is] near,
33 Ũguo noguo rĩrĩa mũkoona maũndũ macio mothe, mũkaamenya atĩ ihinda rĩrĩ hakuhĩ, rĩrĩ o ta mũrango-inĩ.
so also you, when you may see all these, you know that it is near—at the doors.
34 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, rũciaro rũrũ rũtigaathira nginya maũndũ macio mothe mahinge.
Truly I say to you, this generation may not pass away until all these may come to pass.
35 Igũrũ na thĩ nĩigathira, no ciugo ciakwa itigathira.
The heaven and the earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away.
36 “Gũtirĩ mũndũ ũũĩ ũhoro wa mũthenya ũcio kana ithaa rĩu, o na araika a igũrũ matiũĩ, o na Mũriũ ndooĩ, tiga no Ithe wiki.
And concerning that day and the hour no one has known—not even the messengers of the heavens—except My Father only;
37 O ta ũrĩa gwatariĩ matukũ-inĩ ma Nuhu, noguo gũkahaana hĩndĩ ya gũũka kwa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.
and as the days of Noah—so will also be the coming of the Son of Man;
38 Nĩgũkorwo o ta ũrĩa gwatariĩ matukũ marĩa maarĩ mbere ya kĩguũ, andũ nĩmarĩĩaga na makanyua, na nĩmahikanagia na makahika, o nginya mũthenya ũrĩa Nuhu aatoonyire thabina;
for as they were, in the days before the flood, eating, and drinking, marrying, and giving in marriage, until the day Noah entered into the Ark,
39 nao matiamenyire nginya rĩrĩa kĩguũ gĩokire, gĩkĩmaniina othe. Ũguo noguo gũkahaana hĩndĩ ya gũũka kwa Mũrũ wa Mũndũ.
and they did not know until the flood came and took all away, so will also be the coming of the Son of Man.
40 Hĩndĩ ĩyo arũme eerĩ magaakorwo marĩ mũgũnda; ũmwe nĩakoywo na ũrĩa ũngĩ atigwo.
Then two [men] will be in the field: one is received, and one is left;
41 Andũ-a-nja eerĩ magaakorwo magĩthĩa hamwe; ũmwe nĩakoywo na ũrĩa ũngĩ atigwo.
two [women] will be grinding in the mill: one is received, and one is left.
42 “Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, ikaragai mwĩiguĩte, tondũ mũtiũĩ mũthenya ũrĩa Mwathani wanyu agooka.
Watch therefore, because you have not known in what hour your Lord comes;
43 No menyai atĩrĩ, korwo mwene nyũmba nĩamenyete thaa cia ũtukũ iria mũici angĩũka, angĩaikarire eiguĩte, nyũmba yake ĩtuuo.
and know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief comes, he had watched, and did not permit his house to be broken through;
44 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio o na inyuĩ no nginya mũikarage mwĩhaarĩirie, tondũ Mũrũ wa Mũndũ agooka ithaa rĩrĩa mũtamwĩrĩgĩrĩire.
because of this also you, become ready, because in what hour you do not think, the Son of Man comes.
45 “Ningĩ-rĩ, ndungata ya kwĩhokeka na njũgĩ nĩĩrĩkũ, ĩrĩa mwathi wayo angĩĩhokera kũroraga ndungata iria ingĩ cia nyũmba yake, na ĩciheage irio ihinda rĩrĩa rĩagĩrĩire?
Who, then, is the servant, faithful and wise, whom his lord set over his household, to give them the nourishment in season?
46 Kaĩ nĩũgaakorwo ũrĩ ũndũ mwega harĩ ndungata ĩyo, rĩrĩa mwathi wayo agooka akore ĩgĩĩka o ũguo-ĩ!
Blessed that servant, whom his lord, having come, will find doing so;
47 Ngũmwĩra atĩrĩ na ma, nĩakamĩĩhokera indo ciake ciothe.
truly I say to you that he will set him over all his substance.
48 No rĩrĩ, ndungata ĩyo ĩngĩkorwo nĩ njaganu, na ĩĩre na ngoro atĩrĩ, ‘Mwathi wakwa nĩegũikara ihinda iraaya atacookete,’
And if that evil servant may say in his heart, My lord delays to come,
49 na ĩkĩambĩrĩrie kũhũũra ndungata iria ingĩ, na kũrĩa na kũnyua hamwe na arĩĩu.
and may begin to beat the fellow-servants, and to eat and to drink with the drunken,
50 Mwathi wa ndungata ĩyo agooka mũthenya ũrĩa ĩtamwĩrĩgĩrĩire, na ithaa rĩrĩa ĩtooĩ.
the lord of that servant will arrive in a day when he does not expect, and in an hour of which he does not know,
51 Nake nĩakamĩherithia mũno, na amĩikie hamwe na andũ arĩa hinga, kũrĩa gũgaakorwo na kĩrĩro na kũhagarania magego.
and will cut him off, and will appoint his portion with the hypocrites; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of the teeth.”
