1In ko je šel iz templja, mu reče eden učencev njegovih: Učenik, glej, kakšno kamenje in kakšne stavbe!
1As he went out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Teacher, see what kind of stones and what kind of buildings!”
2In Jezus mu reče: Vidiš te velike stavbe? Ne ostane tu kamen na kamenu, ki bi se ne podrl.
2Jesus said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone on another, which will not be thrown down.”
3In ko je sedel na Oljski gori templju nasproti, ga vprašajo posebe Peter in Jakob in Janez in Andrej:
3As he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked him privately,
4Povej nam, kdaj bode to? in kaj bode znamenje, ko se ima vse to dopolniti?
4“Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are all about to be fulfilled?”
5Jezus jim pa začne praviti: Varujte se, da vas kdo ne zapelje!
5Jesus, answering, began to tell them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.
6Kajti veliko jih pride z imenom mojim, govoreč: Jaz sem Kristus, in mnogo jih bodo zapeljali.
6 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he! or, “I AM!” ’ and will lead many astray.
7Kadar pa zaslišite boje in glasove o bojih, ne ustrašite se; zakaj to mora biti, ali to še ni konec.
7 “When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, don’t be troubled. For those must happen, but the end is not yet.
8Kajti vstane narod zoper narod in kraljestvo zoper kraljestvo; potresi bodo po krajih, in bodo lakote. Začetek nadlogam je to.
8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places. There will be famines and troubles. These things are the beginning of birth pains.
9Vi pa varujte sebe! Kajti izročali vas bodo sodiščem in v shodnicah vas bodo pretepali in pred vladarje in kralje vas postavljali zavoljo mene, njim za pričevanje.
9 But watch yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils. You will be beaten in synagogues. You will stand before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony to them.
10In med vsemi narodi se mora poprej oznaniti evangelij.
10 The Good News must first be preached to all the nations.
11Kadar vas pa popeljejo, da vas izroče, ne skrbite naprej, kaj bi govorili, temuč kar vam bo dano tisto uro, to govorite; ker niste vi, ki govorite, ampak sveti Duh.
11 When they lead you away and deliver you up, don’t be anxious beforehand, or premeditate what you will say, but say whatever will be given you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.
12Izdajal pa bo brat brata na smrt in oče sina, in otroci bodo vstali zoper roditelje in jih bodo morili.
12 “Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child. Children will rise up against parents, and cause them to be put to death.
13In vsi vas bodo sovražili zaradi imena mojega. Kdor pa pretrpi do konca, ta bo zveličan.
13 You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.
14A kadar ugledate gnusobo razdejanja [Ali: gnusobo opustošenja..], da stoji, kjer ne bi smela (kdor bere, naj razume!), tedaj naj tisti, ki so v Judeji, zbežé na gore;
14 But when you see the abomination of desolation, Daniel 9:17; 11:31; 12:11 spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains,
15a kdor je na strehi, ne stopaj doli in ne hodi noter, da bi kaj vzel iz hiše svoje;
15 and let him who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter in, to take anything out of his house.
16in kdor je na polju, naj se ne vrača, da vzame plašč svoj.
16 Let him who is in the field not return back to take his cloak.
17Gorje pa nosečim in doječim v tistih dneh!
17 But woe to those who are with child and to those who nurse babies in those days!
18Molite pa, da ne bode po zimi.
18 Pray that your flight won’t be in the winter.
19Kajti tisti dnevi bodo stiska, kakršne ni bilo od začetka stvarjenja, katero je ustvaril Bog, do sedaj in je tudi ne bo.
19 For in those days there will be oppression, such as there has not been the like from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be.
20In ko ne bi bil Gospod prikrajšal teh dni, ne bi se rešil noben človek; ali zavoljo izvoljencev, ki jih je izvolil, je prikrajšal te dni.
20 Unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh would have been saved; but for the sake of the chosen ones, whom he picked out, he shortened the days.
21In če vam tedaj kdo reče: Glej, tu je Kristus, ali: Glej, ondi je, ne verjemite.
21 Then if anyone tells you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, there!’ don’t believe it.
22Kajti lažnivi kristusi in lažnivi proroki bodo vstali in delali znamenja in čudeže, da bi premotili, ko bi bilo mogoče, izvoljence.
22 For there will arise false christs and false prophets, and will show signs and wonders, that they may lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
23A vi se varujte; glejte, povedal sem vam vse naprej.
23 But you watch. “Behold, I have told you all things beforehand.
24Ali v tistih dneh, po tej stiski, otemni solnce in mesec ne bo dajal svetlobe svoje,
24 But in those days, after that oppression, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light,
25in zvezde bodo padale z neba, in sile, ki so na nebu, se bodo pregibale.
25 the stars will be falling from the sky, and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken. Isaiah 13:10; 34:4
26In tedaj ugledajo Sina človekovega, da prihaja na oblakih z veliko močjo in slavo.
26 Then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory.
27In tedaj pošlje angele svoje in zbere izvoljence svoje od četverih vetrov, od konca zemlje do kraja neba.
27 Then he will send out his angels, and will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the sky.
28Od smokve pa se učite prilike: Kadar se že njena veja omladi in požene listje, veste, da je blizu poletje.
28 “Now from the fig tree, learn this parable. When the branch has now become tender, and puts forth its leaves, you know that the summer is near;
29Tako tudi vi: kadar ugledate, da se te reči gode, vedite, da je on blizu, pri vratih.
29 even so you also, when you see these things coming to pass, know that it is near, at the doors.
30Resnično vam pravim, da ne preide ta rod, dokler se vse te reči ne zgode.
30 Most certainly I say to you, this generation The word translated “generation” (genea) could also be translated “race,” “family,” or “people.” will not pass away until all these things happen.
31Nebo in zemlja preideta, a besede moje nikoli ne preidejo.
31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
32Za tisti dan in tisto uro pa nihče ne ve, tudi angeli v nebesih ne, tudi Sin ne, samo Oče.
32 But of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
33Pazite, bedite in molite, kajti ne veste, kdaj je ta čas.
33 Watch, keep alert, and pray; for you don’t know when the time is.
34Kakor je človek, ki je odpotoval, zapustil dom svoj in dal hlapcem svojim oblast in vsakemu svoje delo, tudi vratarju zapovedal, da naj čuje –.
34 “It is like a man, traveling to another country, having left his house, and given authority to his servants, and to each one his work, and also commanded the doorkeeper to keep watch.
35Čujte torej, kajti ne veste, kdaj pride gospodar hiše: ali zvečer, ali opolnoči, ali o petelinovem petju, ali zjutraj,
35 Watch therefore, for you don’t know when the lord of the house is coming, whether at evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning;
36da vas, ko pride nagloma, ne najde spečih.Kar pa vam pravim, pravim vsem: Čujte!
36 lest coming suddenly he might find you sleeping.
37Kar pa vam pravim, pravim vsem: Čujte!
37 What I tell you, I tell all: Watch.”
