< Mathayo 24 >
1 Yesu alitoka hekaluni na kwenda zake. Wanafunzi wake walimwendea na kumuonesha majengo ya hekalu.
And having gone forth Jesus from the temple He was going and came to [Him] the disciples of Him to point out to Him the buildings of the temple.
2 Laikni aliwajibu na kuwaambia, “Je, hamuyaoni mambo haya yote? Kweli nawaambia, hakuna jiwe litalobaki juu ya lingine bila kubomolewa.”
And (answering *NO*) (Jesus *k*) He said to them; Not do you see these things all Amen I say to you; certainly not even may be left here stone upon stone which not (indeed *k*) will be thrown down.
3 Na alipokaa katika Mlima wa Mizeituni, wanafunzi wake walimwendea kwa faragha na kusema, “Tuambie, mambo haya yatatokea lini? Kitu gani kitakuwa dalili ya kuja kwako na mwisho wa ulimwengu?” (aiōn )
When was sitting now He upon the Mount of Olives came to to Him the disciples in private saying; do tell us when these things will be And what [is] the sign of Your coming and (of the *k*) consummation of the age? (aiōn )
4 Yesu aliwajibu na kuwaambia, “Iweni makini kwamba asije mtu akawapotosha.
And answering Jesus said to them; do take heed lest anyone you may mislead.
5 Kwa kuwa wengi watakuja kwa jina langu. Watasema, 'Mimi ndiye Kristo', na watawapotosha wengi.
Many for will come in the name of Me saying; I myself am the Christ, and many they will mislead.
6 Mtasikia vita na taarifa za vita. Angalieni msije mkawa na wasiwasi, kwa kuwa mambo haya hayabudi kutokea; lakini ule mwisho utakuwa bado.
You will begin then to hear of wars and rumors of wars; do behold, not do be alarmed; it is necessary for (all things *k*) to take place but not yet is the end.
7 Kwa kuwa taifa litainuka dhidi ya taifa jingine, na ufalme dhidi ya ufalme. Kutakuwa na njaa na matetemeko ya ardhi katika sehemu mbalimbali.
Will rise up for nation against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines (and pestilences *K*) and earthquakes in [various] places.
8 Lakini mambo haya yote ni mwanzo tu wa uchungu wa kujifungua.
All then these [are] [the] beginning of birth pains.
9 Ndipo watawatoa kwa ajili ya mateso na kuwaua. Mtachukiwa na mataifa yote kwa sababu ya jina langu.
Then will they deliver you to tribulation and will kill you; and you will be hated by all the nations on account of the name of Me.
10 Ndipo wengi watajikwaa na kusalitiana na watachukiana wenyewe kwa wenyewe.
And then will fall away many and one another they will betray and they will hate one another;
11 Manabii wengi wa uongo watatokea na kuwadanganya wengi.
and many false prophets will arise and they will mislead many;
12 Kwa sababu uovu utaongezeka, upendo wa wengi utapoa.
And because is to be multiplied lawlessness will grow cold the love of the many.
13 Lakini atakaye vumilia mpaka mwisho, ataokolewa.
The [one] however having endured to [the] end, he will be saved.
14 Hii Injili ya ufalme itahubiriwa katika ulimwengu mzima kama ushuhuda kwa mataifa yote. Na ndipo ule mwisho utafika.
And there will be proclaimed this the gospel of the kingdom in all the earth for a testimony to all the nations; and then will come the end.
15 Kwa hiyo, mtakapoona chukizo la uharibifu, lililosemwa na nabii Danieli limesimama mahali patakatifu [asomaye na afahamu],
When therefore you may see the abomination of desolation’ which having been spoken of through Daniel the prophet (already standing *NK(o)*) in [the] place holy — the [one] reading he should understand —
16 ndipo walioko Yuda wakimbilie milimani.
then those in Judea they should flee (to *N(k)O*) the mountains,
17 Na yule aliyeko juu ya paa la nyumba asiweze kuteremka chini kuchukua kitu chochote kutoka ndani ya nyumba yake,
the [one] on the housetop not (he should come down *N(k)O*) to take (the [things] *N(k)O*) out of the house of him,
18 naye aliyeko shambani asirudi kuchukua vazi lake.
and the [one] in the field not he should return back to take (the cloak *N(k)O*) of him.
19 Lakini ole wao ambao wana mtoto na wale ambao wananyonyesha katika siku hizo!
Woe then to those in womb [pregnancy] having and to those nursing infants in those the days.
20 Ombeni kwamba kukimbia kwenu kusiwe wakati wa baridi, wala siku ya sabato.
do pray however that not it may happen the flight of you in winter nor (in *k*) on a Sabbath.
21 Kwa kuwa kutakuwa na dhiki kuu, ambayo haijawahi kuwapo tangu kuumbwa kwa ulimwengu hadi sasa, na wala haitakuwapo tena.
There will be for then tribulation great such as not has been from [the] beginning of [the] world until now no certainly not it may happen.
22 Kama siku hizo zisingefupishwa, hakuna ambaye angeokoka. Lakini kwa sababu ya wateule, siku hizo zitafupishwa.
And only unless was shortened the days those, not then would there have been saved any flesh; because of however the elect will be shortened the days those.
23 Kisha ikiwa mtu yeyote atawaambia 'Tazama, Kristo yuko hapa! au, 'Kristo yuko kule' msiamini maneno hayo.
Then if anyone to you may say; Behold here [is] the Christ or Here, not shall believe [it].
24 Kwa kuwa Makristo wa uongo na manabii wa uongo watakuja na kuonesha ishara kubwa na maajabu, kwa kusudi la kupotosha, kama ingewezekana hata na wateule.
There will arise for false Christs and false prophets and they will give signs great and wonders so as (to mislead *NK(o)*) if possible even the elect.
25 Tazameni, nimewatahadharisha kabla ya mambo hayo kutokea.
Behold I have foretold [it] to you.
26 Kwa hiyo, ikiwa watawaambia, ''Kristo yuko jangwani,' msiende huko jangwani. Au, 'Tazameni, yuko ndani ya nyumba,' msiamini maneno hayo.
If therefore they shall say to you; Behold in the wilderness He is, not shall go forth; [or] ‘Behold in the inner rooms, not shall believe [it].
27 Kama vile radi inavyomulika kutokea mashariki na kuangaza hadi magharibi, ndivyo itakavyokuwa kuja kwa Mwana wa Adamu.
Just as for the lightning comes forth from [the] east and shines until [the] west, so will be (also *k*) the coming of the Son of Man.
28 Popote ulipo mzoga, huko ndiko tai wakusanyikapo.
wherever (for *k*) if shall be the carcass, there will be gathered the vultures.
29 Lakini mara baada ya dhiki kuu ya siku zile, Jua litatiwa giza, mwezi hautatoa mwanga wake, nyota zitaanguka kutoka angani, na nguvu za mbinguni zitatikisika.
Immediately then after the tribulation of the days of those The sun will be darkened, and the moon not will give the light of it, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’
30 Ndipo ishara ya Mwana wa Adamu itaonekana angani, na makabila yote ya dunia wataomboleza. Watamwona Mwana wa Adamu akija katika mawingu ya angani kwa nguvu na utukufu mkuu.
And then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in (*ko*) heaven; and then will mourn all the tribes of the earth and they will behold the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and glory great.
31 Atawatuma malaika wake kwa sauti kuu ya tarumbeta, nao watawakusanya pamoja wateule wake kutoka pande nne za dunia, kutoka mwisho mmoja wa mbingu hadi mwingine.
And He will send the angels of Him with a trumpet call (voice *ko*) great, and they will gather together the elect of Him from the four winds, from [the] ends of the heavens until (the *no*) ends of them.
32 Jifunzeni somo kutokana na mti mtini. Mara tu tawi linapochipuka na kutoa majani, mnajua kwamba kiangazi kinakaribia.
From now the fig tree do learn the parable: When already the branch of it may become tender and the leaves may it put forth, you know that near [is] the summer.
33 Hivyo pia, mtakapoona mambo haya yote, mnapaswa kujua kwamba amekaribia, karibu na malango.
Thus also you yourselves when you may see all these things know that near He is at [the] doors.
34 Kweli nawaambia, kizazi hiki hakitapita, hadi mambo yote haya yatakuwa yametokea.
Amen I say to you (that *no*) certainly not may have passed away generation this until when all these things may happen.
35 Mbingu na nchi zitapita, lakini maneno yangu hayatapita kamwe.
The heaven and the earth (will pass away, *N(k)O*) but the words of Mine certainly not may pass away.
36 Lakini kuhusu siku ile na saa hakuna mtu ajuaye, hata malaika wa mbinguni, wala Mwana, bali Baba peke yake.
Concerning however day that [very] and (*k*) hour no [one] knows not even the angels of the heavens (nor the Son, *NO*) only except the Father (of mine *k*) alone.
37 Kama vile ilivyokuwa katika siku za Nuhu, ndivyo itakavyokuwa kuja kwa Mwana wa Adamu.
As [were] (for *N(k)O*) the days of Noah, so will be (also *k*) the coming of the Son of Man.
38 Kwa kuwa katika siku hizo kabla ya gharika watu walikuwa wakila na kunywa, wakioa na kuolewa hadi siku ile ambayo Nuhu aliingia katika safina,
(As *N(k)O*) for they were in the days (those *no*) before the flood, eating and drinking, marrying and (giving in marriage, *N(k)O*) until that day entered Noah into the ark,
39 na hawakujua kitu chochote hadi gharika ilipokuja na kuwasomba wote - ndivyo itakavyokuwa kuja kwa Mwana wa Adamu.
And not they knew until came the flood and took away all, thus will be also the coming of the Son of Man.
40 Ndipo watu wawili watakuwa shambani- mmoja atachukuliwa, na mmoja ataachwa nyuma.
Then two will be in the field; (*k*) one is taken and (*k*) one is left.
41 Wanawake wawili watakuwa wanasaga pamoja - mmoja atachukuliwa, na mmoja atabaki.
Two [women] grinding at the (mill; *N(k)O*) one is taken and one is left.
42 Kwa hiyo, kuweni macho kwa sababu hamjui ni siku gani ambayo atakuja Bwana wenu.
do keep watch therefore, for not you know on what (day *N(K)O*) the Lord of you comes.
43 Lakini mjue kwamba, ikiwa bwana mwenye nyumba angejua ni saa ipi ambayo mwizi angekuja, angekesha na asingeruhusu nyumba yake kuvamiwa.
This then do know, that if [would] had known the master of the house in what time of night the thief comes, he had watched then would and not then would allowed (to be broken into *N(k)O*) the house of him.
44 Kwa hiyo, pia mnapaswa kuwa tayari, kwa kuwa Mwana wa Adamu atakuja katika saa msiyoitarajia.
Because of this also you yourselves do be ready; for in that not you expect hour, the Son of Man comes.
45 Hivyo ni nani aliye mwaminifu, mtumwa mwenye akili, ambaye bwana wake amempa madaraka juu ya walio katika nyumba yake, ili awape chakula kwa wakati unaofaa?
Who then is the faithful servant and wise whom has set the master (of him *k*) over the (household *N(K)O*) of him (to give *N(k)O*) to them the food in season?
46 Amebarikiwa mtumishi huyo, ambaye bwana wake atamkuta akifanya hivyo wakati ajapo.
Blessed [is] the servant that whom having come the master of him will find thus doing.
47 Kweli nawaambia kwamba bwana atamweka juu ya kila kitu kilicho chake.
Amen I say to you that over all the possessions of him he will set him.
48 Lakini kama mtumwa mwovu akisema moyoni mwake, 'Bwana wangu amekawia,'
If however shall say the evil servant that one in the heart of him; Delays My master (to come *k*)
49 na akaanza kuwapiga watumishi wake, na akala na kulewa vileo,
and may begin to beat the fellow servants of him, (he may eat *N(k)O*) then and (he may drink *N(k)O*) with those being drunkards,
50 Bwana wa mtumwa huyo atakuja katika siku ambayo haitarajii, na katika saa ambayo haijui.
will come the master of the servant of that one in a day in which not he does expect and in an hour which not he is aware,
51 Bwana wake atamkata vipande viwili na kumweka katika nafasi moja sawa na wanafiki, ambako kutakuwa na kilio na kusaga meno.
and will cut in pieces him and the place of him with the hypocrites will appoint; there will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.
