穷寡妇的奉献(A)

21 耶稣抬眼看见有钱的人把奉献投入奉献箱。 他又看见一个穷寡妇,投入两个小钱, 就说:“我实在告诉你们,这个穷寡妇所投的,比众人投的更多。 因为这些人都是把自己剩余的投进去作奉献,这寡妇是自己不足,却把所有养生的都投进去了。”

预言圣殿被毁(B)

有人在谈论圣殿,是用美丽的石头和供物装饰的。耶稣说: “你们看见的这些,到了日子,必没有一块石头留在另一块石头上面,每一块都要拆下来。”

这世代终结的预兆(C)

那些人问他:“老师,甚么时候会有这些事呢?这些事要发生的时候,有甚么预兆呢?” 他说:“你们要小心,不要被人迷惑。因为有许多人要来,假冒我的名说:‘我就是基督’,又说:‘时候近了。’你们不要跟从这些人。 你们要听见战乱和暴动,但不要惊慌,因为这些事是必先发生的,不过结局却不会立刻就到。” 10 过了一会儿,耶稣又对他们说:“一个民族要起来攻打另一个民族,一个国家要起来攻打另一个国家。 11 必有大地震,到处有饥荒和瘟疫,天上必有又恐怖又巨大的预兆。 12 但在这一切以先,人必为我的名,下手拘捕、迫害你们,把你们交给会堂,下在监里,甚至押到君王和总督面前, 13 结果却成了你们见证的机会。 14 所以,你们应当心里镇定,用不着预先思虑怎样申辩。 15 因为我必赐给你们口才、智慧,是你们所有的敌人不能抵抗,也不能驳倒的。 16 你们也会被父母、弟兄、亲戚、朋友出卖,他们又要害死你们一些人。 17 你们要因我的名,被众人恨恶, 18 然而连你们的一根头发,也必不失落。 19 你们要以坚忍的心志,赢取自己的灵魂。

预言耶路撒冷被毁(D)

20 “当你们看见耶路撒冷被军队围困的时候,就知道它荒凉的日子近了。 21 那时,住在犹太的,应该逃到山上;住在城里的,要离开;住在乡下的,不要进城。 22 因为这是报仇的日子,使经上的一切话都得应验。 23 当那些日子,怀孕的和乳养孩子的有祸了!因为大灾难要临到这地,烈怒要临到这民。 24 他们将倒在刀下,被掳到各国,耶路撒冷必被外族人践踏,直到外族人的日期满足。

人子必驾云降临(E)

25 “日月星辰将有异兆;在地上,各国也要因着海洋波涛的咆哮而困苦不安。 26 天上的万象震动,人因为等待即将临到世界的事,都吓昏了。 27 那时,他们要看见人子,带着能力,满有荣耀,驾着云降临。 28 一有这些事,你们就当挺身昂首,因为你们的救赎近了。”

29 耶稣又给他们讲了一个比喻:“你们看看无花果树和各样的树。 30 它们甚么时候发芽,你们看见了,就知道夏天近了。 31 同样,你们甚么时候看见这些事发生,也应该知道 神的国近了。 32 我实在告诉你们,这一切都必定发生,然后这世代才会过去。 33 天地都过去,但我的话决不会废去。

警醒祈求

34 “你们应当自己小心,免得在贪食醉酒和生活的挂虑压住你们的心的时候,那日子突然临到你们, 35 正如网罗临到全地的所有居民。 36 你们要时刻警醒,常常祈求,好让你们能逃避这一切要发生的事,可以站在人子面前。”

37 耶稣白天在殿里教导人,晚上就到橄榄山上去过夜。 38 群众清早起来上圣殿,到他那里要听他讲道。

The Widow's Offering

21 (A)Jesus[a] looked up and saw the rich (B)putting their gifts into (C)the offering box, and he saw a poor widow put in two (D)small copper coins.[b] And he said, “Truly, I tell you, (E)this poor widow has put in more than all of them. For they all contributed out of their abundance, but she out of her (F)poverty put in all (G)she had to live on.”

Jesus Foretells Destruction of the Temple

(H)And while some were speaking of the temple, how it was adorned with noble stones and offerings, he said, “As for these things that you see, (I)the days will come when there will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.” And they asked him, “Teacher, (J)when will these things be, and what will be the sign when these things are about to take place?” And he said, (K)“See that you are not led astray. For (L)many will come in my name, saying, (M)‘I am he!’ and, (N)‘The time is at hand!’ Do not go after them. And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be (O)terrified, for these things (P)must first take place, but the end will not be at once.”

Jesus Foretells Wars and Persecution

10 Then he said to them, (Q)“Nation will rise against nation, and (R)kingdom against kingdom. 11 There will be great (S)earthquakes, and in various places (T)famines and pestilences. And there will be (U)terrors and great (V)signs from heaven. 12 But before all this (W)they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to (X)the synagogues and (Y)prisons, and you (Z)will be brought before (AA)kings and (AB)governors for my name's sake. 13 (AC)This will be your opportunity to bear witness. 14 Settle it therefore in your minds (AD)not to meditate beforehand how to answer, 15 for (AE)I will give you a mouth and (AF)wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or (AG)contradict. 16 You will be delivered up (AH)even by parents and brothers[c] and relatives and friends, and some of you they will put to death. 17 (AI)You will be hated by all for my name's sake. 18 But (AJ)not a hair of your head will perish. 19 By your (AK)endurance you will gain your lives.

Jesus Foretells Destruction of Jerusalem

20 “But (AL)when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that (AM)its desolation has come near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it, 22 for these are (AN)days of (AO)vengeance, to fulfill (AP)all that is written. 23 (AQ)Alas for women who are pregnant and for those who are nursing infants in those days! For there will be great distress upon the earth and (AR)wrath against this people. 24 They will fall by the edge of the sword and (AS)be led captive among all nations, and (AT)Jerusalem will be trampled underfoot by the Gentiles, (AU)until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

The Coming of the Son of Man

25 “And (AV)there will be signs in sun and moon (AW)and stars, and on the earth (AX)distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, 26 people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For (AY)the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 27 And then they will see (AZ)the Son of Man coming in a cloud (BA)with power and great glory. 28 Now when these things begin to take place, straighten up and (BB)raise your heads, because (BC)your redemption is drawing near.”

The Lesson of the Fig Tree

29 And he told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree, and all the trees. 30 As soon as they come out in leaf, you see (BD)for yourselves and know that the summer is already near. 31 So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near. 32 (BE)Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all has taken place. 33 (BF)Heaven and earth will pass away, but (BG)my words will not pass away.

Watch Yourselves

34 “But watch yourselves (BH)lest (BI)your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and (BJ)cares of this life, and (BK)that day come upon you suddenly (BL)like a trap. 35 For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 But (BM)stay awake at all times, (BN)praying that you may (BO)have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and (BP)to stand before the Son of Man.”

37 And (BQ)every day he was teaching in the temple, but (BR)at night he went out and lodged on (BS)the mount called Olivet. 38 And early in the morning (BT)all the people came to him in the temple to hear him.

A oferta da viúva

21 Estando Jesus no templo, observava os ricos depositarem suas contribuições na caixa de ofertas. Então uma viúva pobre veio e colocou duas moedas pequenas.[a]

Jesus disse: “Eu lhes digo a verdade: esta viúva pobre deu mais que todos os outros. Eles deram uma parte do que lhes sobrava, mas ela, em sua pobreza, deu tudo que tinha”.

Jesus fala de acontecimentos futuros

Alguns de seus discípulos começaram a falar das pedras magníficas e das dádivas que adornavam o templo. Jesus, porém, disse: “Virá o dia em que estas coisas serão completamente demolidas. Não restará pedra sobre pedra!”.

Então eles perguntaram: “Mestre, quando isso tudo acontecerá? Que sinal indicará que essas coisas estão prestes a se cumprir?”.

Ele respondeu: “Não deixem que ninguém os engane, pois muitos virão em meu nome, dizendo: ‘Eu sou o Cristo’[b] e afirmando: ‘Chegou a hora!’, mas não acreditem neles. E, quando ouvirem falar de guerras e rebeliões, não entrem em pânico. Sim, é necessário que essas coisas aconteçam primeiro, mas ainda não será o fim”. 10 E continuou: “Uma nação guerreará contra a outra, e um reino contra o outro. 11 Haverá grandes terremotos, fome e peste em vários lugares, e acontecimentos terríveis e grandes sinais no céu.

12 “Antes de tudo isso, porém, haverá um tempo de perseguição. Vocês serão arrastados para sinagogas e prisões e, por minha causa, serão julgados diante de reis e governadores. 13 Essa, contudo, será sua oportunidade de lhes falar sobre mim.[c] 14 Mais uma vez lhes digo que não se preocupem com o modo como responderão às acusações contra vocês, 15 pois eu lhes darei as palavras certas e tanta sabedoria que seus adversários não serão capazes de responder nem contradizer. 16 Até mesmo seus pais, irmãos, parentes e amigos os trairão, e até matarão alguns de vocês. 17 Todos os odiarão por minha causa.[d] 18 Mas nem um fio de cabelo de sua cabeça se perderá! 19 É pela perseverança que obterão a vida.

20 “E, quando virem Jerusalém cercada de exércitos, saberão que chegou a hora de sua destruição. 21 Então, quem estiver na Judeia, fuja para os montes. Quem estiver na cidade, saia. E quem estiver no campo, não volte para a cidade. 22 Pois aqueles serão os dias da vingança, e as palavras proféticas das Escrituras se cumprirão. 23 Que dias terríveis serão aqueles para as grávidas e para as mães que estiverem amamentando! Pois haverá calamidade na terra e grande ira contra este povo. 24 Serão mortos pela espada ou levados como prisioneiros para todas as nações do mundo. E Jerusalém será pisoteada pelos gentios até que o tempo deles chegue ao fim.

25 “Haverá sinais no sol, na lua e nas estrelas. E, na terra, as nações ficarão angustiadas, perplexas com o rugir dos mares e a agitação das ondas. 26 As pessoas ficarão aterrorizadas diante do que estará prestes a acontecer na terra, pois os poderes dos céus serão abalados. 27 Então todos verão o Filho do Homem vindo numa nuvem com poder e grande glória.[e] 28 Portanto, quando todas essas coisas começarem a acontecer, levantem-se e ergam a cabeça, pois a sua salvação estará próxima”.

29 Em seguida, deu-lhes esta ilustração: “Observem a figueira, e todas as outras árvores. 30 Quando as folhas aparecem, vocês sabem reconhecer, por conta própria, que o verão está próximo. 31 Da mesma forma, quando virem todas essas coisas acontecerem, saberão que o reino de Deus está próximo. 32 Eu lhes digo a verdade: esta geração[f] não passará até que todas essas coisas tenham acontecido. 33 O céu e a terra desaparecerão, mas as minhas palavras jamais desaparecerão.

34 “Tenham cuidado! Não deixem seu coração se entorpecer com farras e bebedeiras, nem com as preocupações desta vida. Não deixem que esse dia os pegue desprevenidos, 35 como uma armadilha. Pois esse dia virá sobre todos que vivem na terra. 36 Estejam sempre atentos e orem para serem considerados dignos de escapar[g] dos horrores que sucederão e de estar em pé na presença do Filho do Homem”.

Jesus ensina diariamente

37 Todos os dias, Jesus ia ao templo ensinar e, à tarde, voltava para passar a noite no monte das Oliveiras. 38 Pela manhã, o povo se reunia bem cedo no templo para ouvi-lo falar.

21 And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.

And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.

And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:

For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.

And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,

As for these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall come to pass?

And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.

But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.

10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:

11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.

13 And it shall turn to you for a testimony.

14 Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:

15 For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.

16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.

17 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.

18 But there shall not an hair of your head perish.

19 In your patience possess ye your souls.

20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.

21 Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.

22 For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

23 But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.

24 And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.

25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

26 Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

27 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

29 And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;

30 When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.

31 So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.

32 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

33 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.

35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.

36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.

37 And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called the mount of Olives.

38 And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, for to hear him.

The Widow’s Offering(A)

21 As Jesus looked up, he saw the rich putting their gifts into the temple treasury.(B) He also saw a poor widow put in two very small copper coins. “Truly I tell you,” he said, “this poor widow has put in more than all the others. All these people gave their gifts out of their wealth; but she out of her poverty put in all she had to live on.”(C)

The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times(D)(E)

Some of his disciples were remarking about how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said, “As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another;(F) every one of them will be thrown down.”

“Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”

He replied: “Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them.(G) When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”

10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.(H) 11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.(I)

12 “But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will hand you over to synagogues and put you in prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name. 13 And so you will bear testimony to me.(J) 14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves.(K) 15 For I will give you(L) words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict. 16 You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers and sisters, relatives and friends,(M) and they will put some of you to death. 17 Everyone will hate you because of me.(N) 18 But not a hair of your head will perish.(O) 19 Stand firm, and you will win life.(P)

20 “When you see Jerusalem being surrounded by armies,(Q) you will know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those in the city get out, and let those in the country not enter the city.(R) 22 For this is the time of punishment(S) in fulfillment(T) of all that has been written. 23 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! There will be great distress in the land and wrath against this people. 24 They will fall by the sword and will be taken as prisoners to all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled(U) on by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

25 “There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.(V) 26 People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.(W) 27 At that time they will see the Son of Man(X) coming in a cloud(Y) with power and great glory. 28 When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.”(Z)

29 He told them this parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees. 30 When they sprout leaves, you can see for yourselves and know that summer is near. 31 Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that the kingdom of God(AA) is near.

32 “Truly I tell you, this generation(AB) will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 33 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.(AC)

34 “Be careful, or your hearts will be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness and the anxieties of life,(AD) and that day will close on you suddenly(AE) like a trap. 35 For it will come on all those who live on the face of the whole earth. 36 Be always on the watch, and pray(AF) that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man.”

37 Each day Jesus was teaching at the temple,(AG) and each evening he went out(AH) to spend the night on the hill called the Mount of Olives,(AI) 38 and all the people came early in the morning to hear him at the temple.(AJ)
