1 T hen as He went out of the temple, one of His disciples said to Him, “Teacher, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here! ”

A, i a ia e haere atu ana i te temepara, ka mea tetahi o ana akonga ki a ia, E te Kaiwhakaako, nana, te tu o nga kohatu, te tu o nga whare!

2 A nd Jesus answered and said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone shall be left upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age

Na ka whakahoki a Ihu, ka mea ki a ia, Ka kite koe i enei whare nunui? e kore tetahi kohatu e waiho i konei i runga ake i tetahi kohatu, engari ka whakahoroa.

3 N ow as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked Him privately,

A, i a ia e noho ana i runga i Maunga Oriwa i te ritenga atu o te temepara, ka ui puku ki a ia a Pita, a Hemi, a Hoani, a Anaru,

4 “ Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign when all these things will be fulfilled?”

Korerotia mai ki a matou, ko ahea enei mea, a he aha te tohu ina tata enei mea katoa te rite?

5 A nd Jesus, answering them, began to say: “Take heed that no one deceives you.

Na ka anga ia, ka korero ki a ratou, Kia tupato kei mamingatia koutou e te tangata:

6 F or many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He, ’ and will deceive many.

He tokomaha hoki e haere mai i runga i toku ingoa, e mea, Ko ahau ia; a he tokomaha e mamingatia.

7 B ut when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be troubled; for such things must happen, but the end is not yet.

E rongo koutou ki nga pakanga, ki nga hau pakanga, kei ohorere: kua takoto hoki he putanga mo aua mea; taihoa rawa ia te mutunga.

8 F or nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. These are the beginnings of sorrows.

Ka whakatika hoki tetahi iwi ki tetahi iwi, tetahi rangatiratanga ki tetahi rangatiratanga: a he tini nga wahi e puta ai he ru; ka puta ano hoki he po matekai: ko te timatanga enei o nga mamae.

9 “ But watch out for yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils, and you will be beaten in the synagogues. You will be brought before rulers and kings for My sake, for a testimony to them.

Na, kia tupato ki a koutou: ka tukua hoki koutou ki nga runanga; ka whiua koutou i roto i nga whare karakia; a ka whakaturia koutou ki te aroaro o nga kawana, o nga kingi, mo te whakaaro ki ahau, hei mea whakaatu ki a ratou.

10 A nd the gospel must first be preached to all the nations.

Kua takoto ia te tikanga kia matua kauwhautia te rongopai ki nga tauiwi katoa.

11 B ut when they arrest you and deliver you up, do not worry beforehand, or premeditate what you will speak. But whatever is given you in that hour, speak that; for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

Ina arahina koutou ki te whakawa, a ka tukua atu, kaua e manukanuka wawe ki ta koutou e korero ai: engari ko te mea e hoatu ki a koutou i taua haora, ko tena ta koutou e korero ai: ehara hoki i te mea ma koutou nga korero, engari ma te Wairua Ta pu.

12 N ow brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child; and children will rise up against parents and cause them to be put to death.

Na ka tukua te tuakana e te teina ki te mate, te tamaiti hoki e te papa; a ka whakatika nga tamariki ki nga matua, ka mea kia whakamatea.

13 A nd you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But he who endures to the end shall be saved. The Great Tribulation

A ka kinongia koutou e nga tangata katoa, he mea mo toku ingoa: ko te tangata ia e u ana a taea noatia te mutunga, ko ia e ora.

14 “ So when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ 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.

A, ki te kite koutou i te mea whakarihariha, i te mea whakangaro e tu ana i te wahi e kore e tika, kia matau te kaititiro pukapuka, ko reira me rere te hunga i Huria ki nga maunga:

15 L et him who is on the housetop not go down into the house, nor enter to take anything out of his house.

Ko te tangata hoki i runga i te whare kaua e heke iho ki roto ki te whare, kaua hoki e tomo ki te tiki i tetahi mea i roto i tona whare:

16 A nd let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.

Kaua ano te tangata i te mara e hoki ki muri, ki te tiki i tona kakahu.

17 B ut woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!

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

18 A nd pray that your flight may not be in winter.

Ma koutou ia e inoi kei rokohanga koutou e te whati i te hotoke.

19 F or in those days there will be tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the creation which God created until this time, nor ever shall be.

He whakapawera hoki aua ra, kahore ona rite o te orokohanganga ra ano i hanga nei e te Atua, a mohoa noa nei, kahore hoki he pera a muri ake nei.

20 A nd unless the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake, whom He chose, He shortened the days.

Me i kahore hoki aua ra i poroa i waenga e te Ariki, e kore tetahi kikokiko e ora: otira ka whakaaroa te hunga whiriwhiri i whiriwhiria e ia, a poroa ana aua ra i waenga.

21 “ Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘Look, He is there!’ do not believe it.

Ki te mea tetahi ki a koutou i reira, Na, tenei a te Karaiti; Na, tera: kaua e whakaponohia:

22 F or false christs and false prophets will rise and show signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect.

E whakatika hoki nga Karaiti teka, me nga poropiti teka, ka whakaatu i nga tohu me nga mea whakamiharo, a me i taea, ka mamingatia e ratou te hunga whiriwhiri.

23 B ut take heed; see, I have told you all things beforehand. The Coming of the Son of Man

Kia tupato ra koutou: na, kua korerotia wawetia nei e ahau nga mea katoa ki a koutou.

24 “ But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light;

Na, i aua ra, i muri iho i taua whakapawera, ka whakapouritia te ra, e kore hoki e titi te atarau.

25 t he stars of heaven will fall, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken.

Ka taka iho nga whetu o te rangi, ka ngaueue nga mea kaha o nga rangi.

26 T hen they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

Na ko reira kitea ai te Tama a te tangata e haere mai ana i runga i nga kapua, me te kaha nui, me te kororia.

27 A nd then He will send His angels, and gather together His elect from the four winds, from the farthest part of earth to the farthest part of heaven. The Parable of the Fig Tree

Ko reira ano ia tono ai i ana anahera, a ka huihuia ana i whiriwhiri ai i nga hau e wha, i te pito o te whenua tae noa ki te pito o te rangi.

28 “ Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near.

Na kia akona koutou e te piki ki tetahi kupu whakarite: I tona manga e ngawari ana, e puta ana hoki nga rau, ka mohio koutou ka tata te raumati:

29 S o you also, when you see these things happening, know that it is near—at the doors!

Waihoki ko koutou, ina kite i enei mea e pauta mai ana, ka matau ka tata ia, kei nga kuwaha.

30 A ssuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.

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

31 H eaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away. No One Knows the Day or Hour

Ko te rangi me te whenua e pahemo: ko aku kupu ia e kore e pahemo.

32 “ But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

Otiia kahore tetahi tangata e matau ki taua ra, ki taua haora, kahore nga anahera o te rangi, kahore te Tama, ko te Matua anake.

33 T ake heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is.

Kia tupato, kia mataara, me te inoi ano: kahore hoki koutou e matau ki te wa, ko a hea ranei.

34 I t is like a man going to a far country, who left his house and gave authority to his servants, and to each his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to watch.

Ka rite hoki ki te tangata e haere ana ki tawhiti, mahue iho i a ia tona whare, a tukua iho e ia nga tikanga ki ana pononga, tana mahi ma tetahi, ma tetahi, ka whakahau iho hoki ki te kaitiaki tatau kia mataara.

35 W atch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming—in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning—

Ae ra, kia mataara: kahore hoki koutou e matau ki te wa e haere mai ai te rangatira o te whare, ko te ahiahi, ko waenganui po ranei, ko te tangihanga o te heihei, ko te atatu ranei:

36 l est, coming suddenly, he find you sleeping.

Kei puta whakarere mai, ka rokohanga koutou e ia e moe ana.

37 A nd what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!”

Na, ko taku ka mea atu nei ki a koutou, e meatia ana ano ki te katoa, Kia mataara.
