Luke |
Reference |
| Ἐπηρώτησαν δὲ αὐτὸν λέγοντες, Διδάσκαλε, πότε οὖν ταῦτα ἐσται, καὶ τί τὸ σημεῖον ὁταν μέλλῃ ταῦτα γίνεσθαὶ; |
And they asked him, "Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign when this is about to take place?" | Signs and Persecutions Lk.21.7-19 | Mt.24.3-14 | Mk.13.3-13 |
| ὁ δὲ εἶπεν, βλέπετε μὴ πλανηθῆτε· πολλοὶ γὰρ ἐλεύσονται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου λέγοντες, Ἐγώ εἰμι· καί, Ὁ καιρὸς Ἤγγικεν· μὴ πορευθῆτε ὀπίσω αὐτῶν. |
And he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he!' and, 'The time is at hand!' Do not go after them. | |
| ὁταν δὲ ἀκούσητε πολέμους καὶ ἀκαταστασίας, μὴ πτοηθῆτε· δεῖ γὰρ ταῦτα γενέσθαι πρῶτον, ἀλλ' οὐκ εὐθέως τὸ τέλος. |
And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be terrified; for this must first take place, but the end will not be at once." | |
| Τότε ἐλεγεν αὐτοῖς, Ἐγερθήσεται ἐθνος ἐπ' ἐθνος καὶ βασιλεία ἐπὶ βασιλείαν, |
Then he said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; | |
| σεισμοί τε μεγάλοι καὶ κατὰ τόπους λιμοὶ καὶ λοιμοὶ ἐσονται, φόβητρά τε καὶ ἀπ' οὐρανοῦ σημεῖα μεγάλα ἐσται. |
there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven. | |
| πρὸ δὲ τούτων πάντων ἐπιβαλοῦσιν ἐφ' ὑμᾶς τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν καὶ διώξουσιν, παραδιδόντες εἰς τὰς συναγωγὰς καὶ φυλακάς, ἀπαγομένους ἐπὶ βασιλεῖς καὶ ἡγεμόνας ἑνεκεν τοῦ ὀνο ματός μου· |
But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake. | |
| ἀποβήσεται ὑμῖν εἰς μαρτύριον. |
This will be a time for you to bear testimony. | |
| θέτε οὖν ἐν ταῖς καρδίαις ὑμῶν μὴ προμελετᾶν ἀπολογηθῆναι, |
Settle it therefore in your minds, not to meditate beforehand how to answer; | |
| ἐγὼ γὰρ δώσω ὑμῖν στόμα καὶ σοφίαν ᾗ οὐ δυνήσονται ἀντιστῆναι ἢ ἀντειπεῖν ἀπαντες οἱ ἀντικείμενοι ὑμῖν. |
for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict. | |
| παραδοθήσεσθε δὲ καὶ ὑπὸ γονέων καὶ ἀδελφῶν καὶ συγγενῶν καὶ φίλων, καὶ θανατώσουσιν ἐξ ὑμῶν, |
You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends, and some of you they will put to death; | |
| καὶ ἐσεσθε μισούμενοι ὑπὸ πάντων διὰ τὸ ὀνομά μου. |
you will be hated by all for my name's sake. | |
| καὶ θρὶξ ἐκ τῆς κεφαλῆς ὑμῶν οὐ μὴ ἀπόληται. |
But not a hair of your head will perish. | |
| ἐν τῇ ὑπομονῇ ὑμῶν κτήσασθε τὰς ψυχὰς ὑμῶν. |
By your endurance you will gain your lives. | |
