lūkaḥ 21
1 atha dhanilokā bhāṇḍāgāre dhanaṁ nikṣipanti sa tadeva paśyati,
And he looked up and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.
2 etarhi kāciddīnā vidhavā paṇadvayaṁ nikṣipati tad dadarśa|
And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
3 tato yīśuruvāca yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi, daridreyaṁ vidhavā sarvvebhyodhikaṁ nyakṣepsīt,
And he said, In truth I say to you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all.
4 yatonye svaprājyadhanebhya īśvarāya kiñcit nyakṣepsuḥ, kintu daridreyaṁ vidhavā dinayāpanārthaṁ svasya yat kiñcit sthitaṁ tat sarvvaṁ nyakṣepsīt|
For all these out of their abundance cast in to the offerings; but she out of her penury cast in all the living that she had.
5 aparañca uttamaprastarairutsṛṣṭavyaiśca mandiraṁ suśobhatetarāṁ kaiścidityukte sa pratyuvāca
And as some were saying of the temple, that it was adorned with goodly stones, and sacred gifts, he said,
6 yūyaṁ yadidaṁ nicayanaṁ paśyatha, asya pāṣāṇaikopyanyapāṣāṇopari na sthāsyati, sarvve bhūsādbhaviṣyanti kāloyamāyāti|
As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in which there will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be throw down.
7 tadā te papracchuḥ, he guro ghaṭanedṛśī kadā bhaviṣyati? ghaṭanāyā etasyasaścihnaṁ vā kiṁ bhaviṣyati?
And they asked him, saying, Teacher, when then will these things be? and what will be the sign when these things are about to come to pass?
8 tadā sa jagāda, sāvadhānā bhavata yathā yuṣmākaṁ bhramaṁ kopi na janayati, khīṣṭohamityuktvā mama nāmrā bahava upasthāsyanti sa kālaḥ prāyeṇopasthitaḥ, teṣāṁ paścānmā gacchata|
And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived. For many will come in my name, saying, I am He, and the time is at hand. Go not after them.
9 yuddhasyopaplavasya ca vārttāṁ śrutvā mā śaṅkadhvaṁ, yataḥ prathamam etā ghaṭanā avaśyaṁ bhaviṣyanti kintu nāpāte yugānto bhaviṣyati|
And when ye hear of wars and tumults, be not terrified; for these things must first come to pass; but not immediately is the end.
10 aparañca kathayāmāsa, tadā deśasya vipakṣatvena deśo rājyasya vipakṣatvena rājyam utthāsyati,
Then he said to them, Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom;
11 nānāsthāneṣu mahābhūkampo durbhikṣaṁ mārī ca bhaviṣyanti, tathā vyomamaṇḍalasya bhayaṅkaradarśanānyaścaryyalakṣaṇāni ca prakāśayiṣyante|
and there will be great earthquakes, and in divers places famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.
12 kintu sarvvāsāmetāsāṁ ghaṭanānāṁ pūrvvaṁ lokā yuṣmān dhṛtvā tāḍayiṣyanti, bhajanālaye kārāyāñca samarpayiṣyanti mama nāmakāraṇād yuṣmān bhūpānāṁ śāsakānāñca sammukhaṁ neṣyanti ca|
But before all these things they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues, and into prisons, and bringing you before kings and governors on account of my name.
13 sākṣyārtham etāni yuṣmān prati ghaṭiṣyante|
It will turn out to you an opportunity for bearing testimony.
14 tadā kimuttaraṁ vaktavyam etat na cintayiṣyāma iti manaḥsu niścitanuta|
Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate l beforehand what ye shall answer.
15 vipakṣā yasmāt kimapyuttaram āpattiñca karttuṁ na śakṣyanti tādṛśaṁ vākpaṭutvaṁ jñānañca yuṣmabhyaṁ dāsyāmi|
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or gainsay.
16 kiñca yūyaṁ pitrā mātrā bhrātrā bandhunā jñātyā kuṭumbena ca parakareṣu samarpayiṣyadhve; tataste yuṣmākaṁ kañcana kañcana ghātayiṣyanti|
And ye will be delivered up both by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends; and some of you will they put to death.
17 mama nāmnaḥ kāraṇāt sarvvai rmanuṣyai ryūyam ṛtīyiṣyadhve|
And ye will be hated by all on account of my name.
18 kintu yuṣmākaṁ śiraḥkeśaikopi na vinaṁkṣyati,
But not a hair of your head will be lost.
19 tasmādeva dhairyyamavalambya svasvaprāṇān rakṣata|
By your constancy secure your lives.
20 aparañca yirūśālampuraṁ sainyaveṣṭitaṁ vilokya tasyocchinnatāyāḥ samayaḥ samīpa ityavagamiṣyatha|
But when ye see Jerusalem encompassed by armies, then know that her desolation is at hand.
21 tadā yihūdādeśasthā lokāḥ parvvataṁ palāyantāṁ, ye ca nagare tiṣṭhanti te deśāntaraṁ palāyantā, ye ca grāme tiṣṭhanti te nagaraṁ na praviśantu,
Then let those who are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let those who are within the city go out of it, and let not those in the open country enter it.
22 yatastadā samucitadaṇḍanāya dharmmapustake yāni sarvvāṇi likhitāni tāni saphalāni bhaviṣyanti|
For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
23 kintu yā yāstadā garbhavatyaḥ stanyadāvyaśca tāmāṁ durgati rbhaviṣyati, yata etāllokān prati kopo deśe ca viṣamadurgati rghaṭiṣyate|
But woe to the women with child, and to those having children at the breast, in those days! For there will be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people;
24 vastutastu te khaṅgadhāraparivvaṅgaṁ lapsyante baddhāḥ santaḥ sarvvadeśeṣu nāyiṣyante ca kiñcānyadeśīyānāṁ samayopasthitiparyyantaṁ yirūśālampuraṁ taiḥ padatalai rdalayiṣyate|
and they will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led away captive into all the nations; and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the gentiles, until the times of the gentiles are fulfilled.
25 sūryyacandranakṣatreṣu lakṣaṇādi bhaviṣyanti, bhuvi sarvvadeśīyānāṁ duḥkhaṁ cintā ca sindhau vīcīnāṁ tarjanaṁ garjanañca bhaviṣyanti|
And there will be signs in the sun and moon and stars; and on the earth distress of nations, in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and waves;
26 bhūbhau bhāvighaṭanāṁ cintayitvā manujā bhiyāmṛtakalpā bhaviṣyanti, yato vyomamaṇḍale tejasvino dolāyamānā bhaviṣyanti|
men's hearts failing them from fear, and from looking for those things which are coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken.
27 tadā parākrameṇā mahātejasā ca meghārūḍhaṁ manuṣyaputram āyāntaṁ drakṣyanti|
And then will they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
28 kintvetāsāṁ ghaṭanānāmārambhe sati yūyaṁ mastakānyuttolya ūrdadhvaṁ drakṣyatha, yato yuṣmākaṁ mukteḥ kālaḥ savidho bhaviṣyati|
And when these things begin to come to pass, look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
29 tatastenaitadṛṣṭāntakathā kathitā, paśyata uḍumbarādivṛkṣāṇāṁ
And he spoke to them a parable: Behold the fig-tree and all the trees;
30 navīnapatrāṇi jātānīti dṛṣṭvā nidāvakāla upasthita iti yathā yūyaṁ jñātuṁ śaknutha,
when they have already shot forth, ye see it, and know of yourselves that summer is now nigh at hand.
31 tathā sarvvāsāmāsāṁ ghaṭanānām ārambhe dṛṣṭe satīśvarasya rājatvaṁ nikaṭam ityapi jñāsyatha|
So also, when ye see these things coming to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32 yuṣmānahaṁ yathārthaṁ vadāmi, vidyamānalokānāmeṣāṁ gamanāt pūrvvam etāni ghaṭiṣyante|
Truly do I say to you, that this generation will not pass away, till all shall have taken place.
33 nabhobhuvorlopo bhaviṣyati mama vāk tu kadāpi luptā na bhaviṣyati|
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
34 ataeva viṣamāśanena pānena ca sāṁmārikacintābhiśca yuṣmākaṁ citteṣu matteṣu taddinam akasmād yuṣmān prati yathā nopatiṣṭhati tadarthaṁ sveṣu sāvadhānāstiṣṭhata|
But take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be weighed down with surfeiting and drunkenness and worldly cares, and that day come upon you unawares.
35 pṛthivīsthasarvvalokān prati taddinam unmātha iva upasthāsyati|
For as a snare will it come on all that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 yathā yūyam etadbhāvighaṭanā uttarttuṁ manujasutasya sammukhe saṁsthātuñca yogyā bhavatha kāraṇādasmāt sāvadhānāḥ santo nirantaraṁ prārthayadhvaṁ|
But watch at all times, and pray that ye may be able to escape all the things that are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
37 aparañca sa divā mandira upadiśya rācai jaitunādriṁ gatvātiṣṭhat|
And during the daytime he was teaching in the temple; but at night he went out, and lodged in the mount called the Mount of Olives.
38 tataḥ pratyūṣe lākāstatkathāṁ śrotuṁ mandire tadantikam āgacchan|
And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, to hear him.
