Luqaas 21
1 Yesuusis ol milʼatee sooreyyii kennaa isaanii miʼa buusii keessa buusaa jiran arge.
Looking around, Jesus watched rich people putting their gifts into the collection box.
2 Akkasumas haadha hiyyeessaa hiyyeettii tokko saantima sibiila diimaa xixinnoo lama buusuu ishee arge.
He also saw a very poor widow put in two small coins.
3 Innis akkana jedhe; “Ani dhuguman isinitti hima; haati hiyyeessaa hiyyeettiin kun warra kaan hunda caalaa buufteerti.
“I tell you the truth,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the rest together.
4 Namoonni kunneen hundi qabeenya isaanii irraa kennan; isheen garuu hiyyuma ishee keessaa waan ittiin jiraattu hunda kennite.”
All of them gave from their wealth what they had, but she gave from her poverty all she had to live on.”
5 Barattoota isaa keessaas tokko tokko waaʼee mana qulqullummaa, haala manni qulqullummaa sun dhagaawwan babbareedanii fi kennaawwan Waaqaaf kennamaniin itti miidhagfame dudubbachaa turan. Yesuus garuu akkana jedhe;
Some of those there were talking about the Temple, its fine stonework and the beautiful gifts that had been donated. But Jesus said,
6 “Yeroon itti wanni isin ilaaltan kun hundinuu, utuu dhagaan tokko iyyuu wal irratti hin hafin diigamu tokko ni dhufa.”
“Regarding these things you're looking at… The time is coming when not one stone will be left on another; everything will be destroyed!”
7 Isaanis, “Yaa barsiisaa, wanni kun yoom taʼa? Mallattoon yeroo wanni kun itti fiixaan baʼuu gaʼuu maali?” jedhanii gaafatan.
“Teacher, when will this happen?” they asked him. “What will be the sign that these things are about to happen?”
8 Innis akkana jedhee deebise; “Isin akka hin gowwoomfamneef of eeggadha. Namoonni hedduun, ‘Ani isa; yeroon sun dhiʼaateera’ jechaa maqaa kootiin ni dhufuutii. Isin garuu isaan duukaa hin buʼinaa.
“Make sure you're not deceived,” Jesus warned them. “Many people will come claiming to be me, saying, ‘Here I am!’ and, ‘The time has come!’ but don't follow them.
9 Yommuu waaʼee waraanaatii fi waaʼee fincilaa dhageessanitti, hin sodaatinaa. Wanni kun duraan dursee taʼuu qabaatii; dhumni garuu yeruma sana hin taʼu.”
When you hear of wars and revolutions, don't be frightened, because these things have to happen first, but the end won't come immediately.
10 Innis akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Sabni sabatti, mootummaanis mootummaatti ni kaʼa.
Nation will fight nation, and kingdom will fight kingdom,” he told them.
11 Iddoo garaa garaatti sochiin lafaa guddaan, beellii fi golfaan ni taʼa; samii irrattis wanni sodaachisaanii fi mallattoon gurguddaan ni taʼa.
“There will be severe earthquakes, famines, and epidemic diseases in many lands, and extraordinary signs in the sky that are terrifying.
12 “Kana hunda dura garuu isaan isin qabu; isin ariʼatus. Dabarsanii manneen sagadaatti isin kennu; mana hidhaa keessas isin buusu; isin maqaa kootiif jettanii fuula moototaatii fi bulchitootaa duratti ni dhiʼeeffamtu.
But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will drag you before synagogues and throw you into prison, and put you on trial before kings and governors on account of me.
13 Akkasiin isin anaaf dhugaa baatu.
But this will provide you an opportunity to speak on my behalf before them.
14 Isin garuu akkamitti akka falmattan duraan dursitanii akka hin yaaddofne yaadatti qabadhaa.
So make up your mind beforehand not to worry about how to defend yourselves,
15 Anuu afaanii fi ogummaa diinonni keessan tokko iyyuu dandaʼanii dura hin dhaabanne yookaan hin mormine isiniif nan kennaatii.
for I will give you words of wisdom that your enemies won't be able to dispute or contradict.
16 Abbaa fi haati, obboloonni, firoonnii fi michoonni dabarsanii isin kennu; isin keessaas tokko tokko ni ajjeesu.
You will be betrayed even by your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends, and they will kill some of you.
17 Namni hundinuu sababii maqaa kootiif isin jibba.
Everyone will hate you because of me.
18 Garuu rifeensi mataa keessanii tokko iyyuu hin badu.
But not a single hair of your head will be lost.
19 Isin jabaadhaa dhaabadhaa; yoos lubbuu keessan ni oolfattu.
By standing firm you will gain your lives.
20 “Isin yommuu Yerusaalem loltootaan marfamtee argitanitti akka badiin ishee dhiʼaate beekaa.
However, when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then you know that its destruction is near.
21 Yommus warri Yihuudaa keessa jiran gaarranitti haa baqatan; warri magaalaa keessa jiranis achii haa baʼan; warri baadiyyaa jiran immoo magaalaa hin seenin.
Those who are in Judea should run away to the mountains, and those who are in Jerusalem should leave, and those who are the countryside shouldn't enter the city.
22 Akka wanni barreeffame hundinuu raawwatamuuf yeroon kun yeroo haaloo baasuutii.
For these are days of punishment, fulfilling all that's written.
23 Bara sana keessa dubartoota ulfaatii fi haadhota hoosisaniif wayyoo! Lafa irratti dhiphinni guddaan, saba kanatti immoo dheekkamsi ni dhufaatii.
How hard it will be for those who are pregnant or nursing babies at that time! For terrible trouble is coming on the land and punishment against this people.
24 Isaanis goraadeedhaan ajjeefamu; boojiʼamaniis biyyoota ormaa hundatti ni geeffamu; hamma barri Namoota Ormaa dhumutti Yerusaalem Namoota Ormaatiin dhidhiitamti.
They will be killed by the sword and taken away as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trodden down by the foreign nations until their time is fulfilled.
25 “Aduu irratti, jiʼa irratti, urjiiwwan irrattis mallattoon ni taʼa. Lafa irrattis sababii huursaatii fi dhaʼaa galaanaatiif saboonni ni muddamu; waan taʼanis ni wallaalu.
There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars, and on the earth the nations will be in distress, confused by the sea's rolling and crashing.
26 Namoonnis sababii humnoonni samii irraa raafamaniif, waan addunyaa kanatti dhufuuf jiru yaaddaʼanii sodaadhaan ni gaggabu.
People will be faint from fear, terrified about what is happening to the world, for the powers of heaven will be shaken.
27 Isaanis yeroo sana utuu Ilmi Namaa humnaa fi ulfina guddaadhaan duumessaan dhufuu ni argu.
Then they'll see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 Yommuu wanni kun taʼuu jalqabutti mataa keessan ol qabadhaa; olis ilaalaa; furamuun keessan dhiʼaateeraatii.”
But when these things happen, stand up and look up, because you will soon be saved.”
29 Innis akkana jedhee fakkeenya kana isaanitti hime; “Mee muka harbuutii fi muka hunda ilaalaa.
Then he told them this story as an illustration. “Look at the fig tree, or any other kind of tree.
30 Yommuu isaan baala baafatanitti isin mataan keessan iyyuu ilaaltanii akka bonni dhiʼaate beekuu dandeessu.
When you see new leaves appear, you don't need to be told that summer is near.
31 Akkasuma isinis yommuu wanni kun raawwatamuu isaa argitanitti akka mootummaan Waaqaa dhiʼaate ni beektu.
In the same way, when you see these things happening, you don't need to be told that God's kingdom is near.
32 “Ani dhuguma isinittin hima; hamma wanni kun hundi taʼutti dhaloonni kun hin darbu.
I tell you the truth, this generation won't come to an end before all this happens.
33 Samii fi lafti ni darbu; dubbiin koo garuu gonkumaa hin darbu.
Heaven and earth will come to an end, but my word will not.
34 “Isin of eeggadhaa; yoo kanaa achii qalbiin keessan qananiidhaan, machii fi yaaddoo jireenyaatiin fudhatamee guyyaan sunis utuu isin hin beekin akkuma kiyyoo isin qabata.
Watch out that you don't become distracted by partying or getting drunk or by the worries of this life, so that this day catches you by surprise.
35 Guyyaan sun warra lafa irra jiraatan hundatti ni dhufaatii.
For this day will come upon everyone who lives on the face of the earth.
36 Kanaafuu akka waan dhufuuf jiru hunda jalaa baataniif, akka fuula Ilma Namaa duras dhaabachuu dandeessaniif yeroo hunda dammaqaa; kadhadhaas.”
Always keep watch and pray, so that you may be able to escape all that will happen and stand before the Son of man.”
37 Yesuus guyyuma guyyaan mana qulqullummaa keessatti barsiisaa ture; halkan halkan immoo tulluu Gaara Ejersaa jedhamu irra bula ture.
Every day Jesus taught in the Temple, and every evening he went and stayed on the Mount of Olives.
38 Namoonni hundinuus isa dhaggeeffachuuf jedhanii barii barraaqaan mana qulqullummaa dhufu turan.
All the people came early in the morning to listen to him in the Temple.
