Lukka 21
1 Awo Yesu bwe yayimusa amaaso n’alaba abantu abagagga nga bateeka ebirabo byabwe mu ggwanika mu Yeekaalu.
He looked up and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury.
2 N’alaba nnamwandu omwavu ng’awaayo busente bubiri.
He saw a certain poor widow casting in two small brass coins.
3 N’agamba nti, “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti nnamwandu oyo omwavu agabye okusinga bali abagagga bonna.
He said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them,
4 Kubanga bagabye kitono nga bakiggya ku bugagga bwe bafisizzaawo, naye nnamwandu mu bwavu bwe awaddeyo kyonna ky’alina.”
for all these put in gifts for God from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on.”
5 Ne wabaawo aboogera ku bulungi bw’amayinja agaweebwayo eri Katonda okuzimba Yeekaalu.
As some were talking about the temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts, he said,
6 Naye Yesu n’agamba nti, “Ekiseera kijja ebirungi bino byonna bye mutunuulira lwe biribetentulwa ne watasigalawo jjinja na limu nga litudde ku linnaalyo, eritalisuulibwa wansi.”
“As for these things which you see, the days will come in which there will not be left here one stone on another that will not be thrown down.”
7 Ne bamubuuza nti, “Omuyigiriza, ebyo biribaawo ddi? Ye walibaawo akabonero akaliraga nti biri kumpi okubaawo?”
They asked him, “Rabbi, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?”
8 Yesu n’addamu nti, “Mwekuume muleme kulimbibwalimbibwa. Kubanga bangi balikozesa erinnya lyange, nga bagamba nti, ‘Nze nzuuyo.’ Naye temubakkirizanga.
He said, “Watch out that you don’t get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is at hand.’ Therefore don’t follow them.
9 Naye bwe muwuliranga entalo n’obwegugungo, temutyanga. Kubanga entalo ziteekwa okusooka okujja, naye enkomerero terituuka mangwago.”
When you hear of wars and disturbances, don’t be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won’t come immediately.”
10 N’ayongera n’abagamba nti, “Amawanga galirwanagana, n’obwakabaka ne bulwanagana ne bunaabwo.
Then he said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.
11 Wagenda kubeerawo musisi ow’amaanyi ennyo, n’enjala ennyingi mu bitundu eby’enjawulo, ne kawumpuli. Walibaawo n’ebyentiisa ate n’obubonero okuva mu ggulu.
There will be great earthquakes, famines, and plagues in various places. There will be terrors and great signs from heaven.
12 “Naye bino byonna nga tebinnabaawo balibayigganya, balibakwata. Balibawaayo mu makuŋŋaaniro, ne mu maaso ga bakabaka ne bagavana, ku lw’erinnya lyange, ne musibibwa ne mu makomera.
But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for my name’s sake.
13 Kiribaviiramu okufuna omukisa okuba abajulirwa bange.
It will turn out as a testimony for you.
14 Naye temweraliikiriranga gye muliggya ebigambo eby’okuwoza,
Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer,
15 Kubanga ŋŋenda kubawa ebigambo n’amagezi ebiriremesa n’abalabe bammwe okubaako n’eky’okuddamu!
for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.
16 Muliweebwayo bakadde bammwe, ne baganda bammwe ne mikwano gyammwe, balibawaayo mukwatibwe, era abamu ku mmwe muttibwe.
You will be handed over even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends. They will cause some of you to be put to death.
17 Abantu bonna balibakyawa nga babalanga erinnya lyange.
You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake.
18 Naye n’oluviiri olumu bwe luti olw’oku mitwe gyammwe terulizikirira.
And not a hair of your head will perish.
19 Kubanga bwe muligumiikiriza muliwonya obulamu bwammwe.”
“By your endurance you will win your lives.
20 “Bwe mulabanga nga Yerusaalemi kyetooloddwa amaggye, nga mutegeera nga Okuzikirizibwa kw’ekibuga ekyo kutuuse.
“But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand.
21 Abo abalibeera mu Buyudaaya baddukiranga ku nsozi, abaliba mu Yerusaalemi bakivangamu ne badduka, n’abo abalibeera mu nnimiro tebakomangawo mu kibuga.
Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the middle of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter therein.
22 Kubanga ebyo bye biriba ebiseera Katonda mwaliwolera eggwanga, n’ebigambo ebiri mu Byawandiikibwa birituukirizibwa.
For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 Nga ziribasanga abakazi abaliba embuto n’abayonsa! Kubanga eggwanga liribonaabona, n’abantu baalyo balisunguwalirwa.
Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath to this people.
24 Abamu balittibwa n’ekitala ky’omulabe, abalala balikwatibwa ne bawaŋŋangusibwa mu mawanga gonna amalala ag’oku nsi. Yerusaalemi kiriwangulwa bannaggwanga ne bakirinnyirira okutuusa ekiseera kyabwe eky’obuwanguzi lwe kirikoma mu kiseera Katonda ky’aliba ateesezza.”
They will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.
25 “Walibaawo obubonero ku njuba, ne ku mwezi, ne ku mmunyeenye. Wano ku nsi amawanga galibeera mu kunyolwa, olw’ab’amawanga, ng’abantu basamaaliridde olw’ennyanja eziyira n’amayengo ageesiikuula.
“There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth anxiety of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the waves;
26 Abantu baliggwaamu amaanyi ne bazirika nga batidde nnyo olw’ebirijja ku nsi; kubanga amaanyi g’eggulu galinyeenyezebwa.
men fainting for fear and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 Mu kiseera ekyo muliraba Omwana w’Omuntu ng’ajjira mu kire n’obuyinza n’ekitiibwa kingi.
Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 Kale ebintu ebyo bwe bitandikanga muyimiriranga butereevu ne muyimusa amaaso gammwe waggulu! Kubanga okulokolebwa kwammwe nga kusembedde.”
But when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near.”
29 Awo Yesu n’abagerera olugero luno nti, “Mutunuulire omuti omutiini n’emiti emirala gyonna.
He told them a parable. “See the fig tree and all the trees.
30 Bwe mulaba nga gitandise okutojjera, mumanya ng’ebiseera eby’ebbugumu bituuse.
When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near.
31 Mu ngeri y’emu bwe muliraba ebintu nga bibaawo, nga mumanya nti obwakabaka bwa Katonda buli kumpi okutuuka.
Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that God’s Kingdom is near.
32 “Ddala ddala mbagamba nti omulembe guno teguliggwaawo okutuusa ng’ebintu ebyo byonna bituukiridde.
Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished.
33 Eggulu n’ensi biriggwaawo, naye ebigambo byange tebigenda kuggwaawo.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.
34 “Mwekuume muleme okwemalira mu binyumu n’okutamiira, n’okweraliikirira eby’obulamu, okujja kwange okw’amangu kuleme kubakwasa nga temugenderedde ng’abagudde mu mutego.
“So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly.
35 Kubanga olunaku olwo lulituuka ku buli muntu mu nsi yonna.
For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth.
36 Mutunule nga musaba Katonda buli kiseera, abawe amaanyi okubasobozesa okuwona ebintu ebyo byonna, Omwana w’Omuntu bw’alijja mulyoke musobole okuyimirira mu maaso ge.”
Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.”
37 Buli lunaku Yesu yayigirizanga mu Yeekaalu, bwe bwawungeeranga n’ava mu kibuga n’asula ku lusozi oluyitibwa olwa Zeyituuni.
Every day Yeshua was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet.
38 Mu makya abantu bonna ne bajjanga mu Yeekaalu okumuwuliriza.
All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.
