Mark 13
|
And when he was going out of the Temple, one of his disciples said to him, Master, see, what stones and what buildings! | And as he went forth out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Teacher, behold, what manner of stones and what manner of buildings! |
And Jesus said to him, Do you see these great buildings? there is not one stone here resting on another which will not be overturned. | And Jesus said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left here one stone upon another, which shall not be thrown down. |
And while he was seated on the Mountain of Olives opposite the Temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew said to him privately, | And as he sat on the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, |
Say when these things will be, and what will be the sign when these things are all about to be done. | Tell us, when shall these things be? and what [shall be] the sign when these things are all about to be accomplished? |
And Jesus said to them, Take care that you are not tricked by anyone. | And Jesus began to say unto them, Take heed that no man lead you astray. |
People will come in my name, saying, I am he; and a number will be turned from the true way. | Many shall come in my name, saying, I am [he]; and shall lead many astray. |
And when you have news of wars and talk of wars, do not be troubled; these things have to be, but it is still not the end. | And when ye shall hear of wars and rumors of wars, be not troubled: [these things] must needs come to pass; but the end is not yet. |
Nation will go to war with nation, and kingdom with kingdom: there will be earth-shocks in different places; there will be times when there is no food; these things are the first of the troubles. | For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there shall be earthquakes in divers places; there shall be famines: these things are the beginning of travail. |
But take care: for they will give you up to the Sanhedrins; and in Synagogues you will be whipped; and you will be taken before rulers and kings because of me, for a sign to them. | But take ye heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in synagogues shall ye be beaten; and before governors and kings shall ye stand for my sake, for a testimony unto them. |
And the good news has first to be given to all the nations. | And the gospel must first be preached unto all the nations. |
And when you are taken and given up to be judged, do not be troubled about what to say: but whatever is given to you in that hour, say: because it is not you who say it, but the Holy Spirit. | And when they lead you [to judgment], and deliver you up, be not anxious beforehand what ye shall speak: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye; for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Spirit. |
And brother will give up brother to death, and the father his child; and children will go against their fathers and mothers, and put them to death. | And brother shall deliver up brother to death, and the father his child; and children shall rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death. |
And you will be hated by all men, because of my name; but he who goes through to the end will have salvation. | And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end, the same shall be saved. |
But when you see the unclean thing which makes destruction, in the place where it has no right to be (let this be clear to the reader), then let those who are in Judaea go quickly to the mountains: | But when ye see the abomination of desolation standing where he ought not (let him that readeth understand), then let them that are in Judaea flee unto the mountains: |
And let him who is on the house-top not go down, or go in, to take anything out of his house: | and let him that is on the housetop not go down, nor enter in, to take anything out his house: |
And let not him who is in the field go back to take his coat. | and let him that is in the field not return back to take his cloak. |
And it will be hard for women who are with child and for her who has a baby at the breast in those days. | But woe unto them that are with child and to them that give suck in those days! |
And say a prayer that it may not be in the winter. | And pray ye that it be not in the winter. |
For in those days there will be sorrow, such as there has not been from the time when God made the world till now, and will not ever be again. | For those days shall be tribulation, such as there hath not been the like from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never shall be. |
And if the Lord had not made the time short, no flesh would have been kept from destruction; but because of the saints he has made the time short. | And except the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would have been saved; but for the elect's sake, whom he chose, he shortened the days. |
And then if any man says to you, See, here is Christ; or, See, there; have no faith in it: | And then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is the Christ; or, Lo, there; believe [it] not: |
Because there will be false Christs and false prophets, and they will give signs and wonders in the hope of turning even the saints from the true way. | for there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, the elect. |
But take care; see, I have made all things clear to you before the time. | But take ye heed: behold, I have told you all things beforehand. |
But in those days, after that time of trouble, the sun will be made dark and the moon will not give her light, | But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, |
And the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers which are in the heavens will be moved. | and the stars shall be falling from heaven, and the powers that are in the heavens shall be shaken. |
And then they will see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory. | And then shall they see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory. |
And then he will send out the angels, and will get together his saints from the four winds, from the farthest part of the earth to the farthest part of heaven. | And then shall he send forth the angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven. |
Take an example from the fig-tree: when its branches become soft and put out their leaves, you see that the summer is near; | Now from the fig tree learn her parable: when her branch is now become tender, and putteth forth its leaves, ye know that the summer is nigh; |
Even so, when you see these things taking place, you may be certain that he is near, even at the doors. | even so ye also, when ye see these things coming to pass, know ye that he is nigh, [even] at the doors. |
Truly, I say to you, This generation will not come to an end till all these things are complete. | Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, until all these things be accomplished. |
Heaven and earth will come to an end, but my words will not come to an end. | Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. |
But of that day or that hour no one has knowledge, not even the angels in heaven, or the Son, but the Father. | But of that day or that hour knoweth no one, not even the angels in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. |
Take care, keep watch with prayer: for you are not certain when the time will be. | Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. |
It is as when a man who is in another country for a time, having gone away from his house, and given authority to his servants and to everyone his work, gives the porter an order to keep watch. | [It is] as [when] a man, sojourning in another country, having left his house, and given authority to his servants, to each one his work, commanded also the porter to watch. |
So you are to keep watch: because you are not certain when the master of the house is coming, in the evening, or in the middle of the night, or at the cock's cry, or in the morning; | Watch therefore: for ye know not when the lord of the house cometh, whether at even, or at midnight, or at cockcrowing, or in the morning; |
For fear that, coming suddenly, he sees you sleeping. | lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. |
And what I say to you, I say to all, Keep watch. | And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch. |
