1 A ka puta atu a Ihu ki waho o te temepara, ka haere; na ka tae mai ana akonga ki a ia kia whakakitea ki a ia nga whare i hanga mo te temepara.

Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.

2 O tira ka mea ia ki a ratou, Kahore ianei koutou e kite i enei mea katoa? He pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, E kore e toe ki konei tetahi kohatu ki runga ake i tetahi kohatu, engari ka whakahoroa katoatia.

But he answered them, “You see all of these things, don’t you? Most certainly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down.”

3 A , i a ia e noho ana i runga i maunga Oriwa, ka haere puku mai nga akonga ki a ia, ka mea, Korerotia ki a matou, ko ahea enei mea? he aha te tohu o tou haerenga mai, o te mutunga hoki o te ao?

As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?”

4 N a ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ratou, Kia tupato kei mamingatia koutou e te tangata.

Jesus answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.

5 H e tokomaha hoki e haere mai i runga i toku ingoa, e mea, Ko te Karaiti ahau, a he tokomaha e whakapohehetia.

For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.

6 A tera koutou e rongo ki nga pakanga, ki nga hau korero pakanga: kia tupato kei ohorere koutou: ta te mea kua rite kia puta enei mea katoa, taihoa ia te mutunga.

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.

7 E whakatika hoki tetahi iwi ki tetahi iwi, tetahi rangatiratanga ki tetahi rangatiratanga: a e puta nga po matekai, nga mate uruta, me nga ru, ki nga tini wahi.

For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.

8 O tira ko te timatanga kau enei katoa o nga mamae.

But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.

9 K o reira koutou tukua ai kia tukinotia, a e whakamatea koutou; a e kino hoki nga iwi katoa ki a koutou, he whakaaro ki toku ingoa.

Then they will deliver you up to oppression, and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name’s sake.

10 A he tokomaha e he, a ka tuku tetahi i tetahi, ka kino ano tetahi ki tetahi.

Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.

11 H e tokomaha ano nga poropiti teka e whakatika, a he tokomaha e whakapohehetia e ratou.

Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray.

12 A , i te kino ka hua, ka matoke haere te aroha o te tini tangata.

Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.

13 K o te tangata ia e u ana, a taea noatia te mutunga, ka ora ia.

But he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.

14 A e kauwhautia tenei rongopai o te rangatiratanga puta noa i te ao, hei mea whakaatu ki nga iwi katoa; a ko reira puta ai te mutunga.

This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

15 A e kite koutou i te mea whakarihariha, i te mea whakangaro, i korerotia ai e Raniera poropiti, i a ia e tu ana i te wahi tapu, kia matau te kaititiro pukapuka,

“When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),

16 K o reira kia rere te hunga i Huria ki nga maunga:

then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

17 K o te tangata i runga i te whare, kei heke iho ki te tiki mea i roto i tona whare:

Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out things that are in his house.

18 K auaka ano te tangata i te mara e hoki ki te tiki i ona kakahu.

Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.

19 A ue, te mate mo te hunga e hapu ana, mo nga mea hoki e whangai ana ki te u, i aua ra!

But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!

20 M e inoi koutou kei rokohanga koutou e te whati i te hotoke, i te hapati ranei:

Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a Sabbath,

21 K ei taua wa hoki te whiu nui, kahore ona rite mai o te timatanga o te ao a mohoa noa nei, e kore ano e pera a mua ake nei.

for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.

22 A , me i kahore aua ra i poroa i waenga, hore he kikokiko e ora: otira ka whakaaroa te hunga i whiriwhiria, a ka poroa aua ra.

Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.

23 K i te mea tetahi ki a koutou i reira, Na, tenei a te Karaiti; na, tera; aua e whakaponohia.

“Then if any man tells you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ,’ or, ‘There,’ don’t believe it.

24 E whakatika hoki nga Karaiti teka, me nga poropiti teka, a ka hoatu e ratou nga tohu nunui, me nga mea whakamiharo; a mehemea e taea, ka mamingatia ano te hunga i whiriwhiria.

For there will arise false christs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.

25 N a kua korerotia wawetia nei e ahau ki a koutou.

“Behold, I have told you beforehand.

26 N a, ahakoa mea ratou ki a koutou, Na, kei te koraha ia; aua e haere atu: Na, kei nga ruma o roto rawa; aua e whakaponohia.

If therefore they tell you, ‘Behold, he is in the wilderness,’ don’t go out; ‘Behold, he is in the inner rooms,’ don’t believe it.

27 K a rite hoki ki te uira e puta mai nei i te rawhiti, a hiko tonu atu ki te uru, te haerenga mai o te Tama a te tangata.

For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

28 K o te wahi hoki i te tupapaku, ko reira huihui ai nga kahu.

For wherever the carcass is, there is where the vultures gather together.

29 A , muri tonu iho i te whakapawera i aua ra, ka whakapouritia te ra, e kore ano e titi te atarau, ka taka iho nga whetu i te rangi, a ka ngaueue nga mea kaha o nga rangi:

But immediately after the oppression of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;

30 K o reira ano puta ai te tohu o te Tama a te tangata i te rangi: a ko reira nga iwi katoa o te whenua tangi ai, a e kite ratou i te Tama a te tangata e haere mai ana i runga i nga kapua o te rangi me te kaha, me te kororia nui.

and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.

31 A , e tonoa e ia ana anahera me te tetere tangi nui, a ka huihuia e ratou ana i whiriwhiri ai i nga hau e wha, i tetahi pito o te rangi puta noa i tetahi pito.

He will send out his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

32 N a kia akona koutou e te piki ki tetahi kupu whakarite: i tona manga e ngawari ana ano, a ka puta ona rau, ka mohio koutou ka tata te raumati:

“Now from the fig tree learn this parable. When its branch has now become tender, and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near.

33 W aihoki ko koutou, ina kite i enei mea katoa, ka matau koutou ka tata ia, kei nga kuwaha tonu.

Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 H e pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, E kore rawa tenei whakatupuranga e pahemo, kia puta katoa ra ano enei mea.

Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away, until all these things are accomplished.

35 K o te rangi me te whenua e pahemo, ko aku kupu ia e kore e pahemo.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

36 O tira kahore tetahi tangata e mohio ki taua ra, ki taua haora, kahore rawa nga anahera o te rangi, kahore te Tama a te tangata, ko toku Matua anake.

But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 K a rite hoki ki nga ra i a Noa te haerenga mai o te Tama a te tangata.

“As the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

38 K a rite hoki ki ta ratou i nga ra i mua atu o te waipuke; e kai ana, e inu ana, e marena ana, e hoatu ana kia marenatia, a tae noa ki te ra i tomo ai a Noa ki roto ki te aaka,

For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ship,

39 A kahore ratou i mohio, a pakaru noa te waipuke, a kahakina ana ratou katoa: e pera ano te haerenga mai o te Tama a te tangata.

and they didn’t know until the flood came, and took them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

40 I taua wa tokorua ki te mara; kotahi e tangohia, kotahi e waiho:

Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one will be left;

41 T okorua wahine e huri ana i te mira; kotahi e tangohia, kotahi e waiho.

two women grinding at the mill, one will be taken and one will be left.

42 K ia mataara rapea; e kore hoki koutou e mohio ki te haora e puta mai ai to koutou Ariki.

Watch therefore, for you don’t know in what hour your Lord comes.

43 K ia mohio ki tenei, me i matau te tangata o te whare ki te mataaratanga e puta ai te tahae, kua tautiaki ia, a kahore i tukua tona whare kia pokaia.

But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

44 N a kia mataara hoki koutou: no te mea ka puta mai te Tama a te tangata i te haora e kore ai koutou e mahara.

Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don’t expect, the Son of Man will come.

45 K o wai ra te pononga pono, mahara, i meinga e tona ariki hei rangatira mo ana tangata, hei hoatu i te kai ma ratou i te wa e tika ai?

“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?

46 K a koa taua pononga ki te rokohanga e tona ariki, ina haere mai, e pera ana.

Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.

47 H e pono taku e mea nei ki a koutou, Ka meinga ia hei rangatira mo ona taonga katoa.

Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.

48 O tira ki te mea taua pononga kino i roto i tona ngakau, Ka roa te putanga mai o toku ariki;

But if that evil servant should say in his heart, ‘My lord is delaying his coming,’

49 A ka anga ka patu i ona hoa pononga, ka kai, ka inu tahi me te hunga haurangi;

and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,

50 E tae mai te ariki o taua pononga i te ra e kore ai ia e mahara, i te haora e kore ai ia e mohio,

the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn’t expect it, and in an hour when he doesn’t know it,

51 K a hatepea putia ia, ka meinga he wahi mona i roto i te hunga tinihanga: ko te wahi tera o te tangi, o te tetea o nga niho.

and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
