馬可福音 13
Chinese Standard Bible (Traditional)
預言聖殿被毀
13 耶穌走出聖殿的時候,他的一個門徒對他說:「老師,你看!多好的石頭,多好的建築啊!」
2 耶穌對他說:「你在看這些雄偉的建築嗎?這裡將絕不會有一塊石頭留在另一塊石頭上而不被拆下。」
末日的預兆
3 耶穌在橄欖山上,面對聖殿坐著。彼得、雅各、約翰和安得烈悄悄地問他: 4 「請告訴我們,這些事什麼時候會發生呢?這一切將要成就的時候,會有什麼預兆呢?」
5 耶穌就開始對他們說:「你們要當心,免得有人迷惑你們。 6 許多人會以我的名而來,聲稱『我就是那一位[a]』,並且會迷惑許多人。 7 當你們聽見戰爭和戰爭消息的時候,不可驚慌。這些事必須發生,不過結局還沒有到。 8 一個民族要起來反對另一個民族,一個國家要起來反對另一個國家;到處都會有地震和饑荒[b]。這些都像臨產陣痛的開始。
預言受迫害
9 「你們自己要當心。他們將要把你們送交議會;你們會在會堂裡受鞭打。為我的緣故,你們將站在總督和君王面前,好對他們做見證。 10 然而,福音必須先傳給萬國。 11 當他們把你們交出去、帶走的時候,不要預先憂慮[c]說什麼。到時候,你們被賜予什麼話,就說什麼話,因為說話的不是你們自己,而是聖靈。 12 兄弟將要把兄弟出賣,置於死地;父親對孩子也會這樣。兒女會起來與父母作對,並且害死他們。 13 為了我的名,你們將被所有的人憎恨,但是忍耐到底的,這個人將會得救。
大患難的日子
14 「當你們看見[d]『那帶來毀滅的褻瀆者[e]』[f]站在不該站的地方時——讀者應當思考——那時,在猶太的人應當逃到山裡; 15 在屋頂上的人,不要下來[g],也不要進屋子裡去拿什麼東西; 16 在田裡的人,不要轉回到背後的事上,去拿自己的衣服。 17 在那些日子裡,孕婦和哺乳的女人有禍了! 18 你們要禱告,好讓這事[h]不在冬天發生, 19 因為在那些日子裡將有患難。這樣的患難從神創世之初直到如今,從來沒有發生過,也絕不再發生。 20 如果不是主減少了那些日子,就沒有一個人[i]能得救。然而,為了那些蒙揀選的人,就是他所揀選的,他減少了那些日子。
21 「那時候,如果有人對你們說『看哪,基督在這裡!』『看哪,他在那裡!』你們不要相信。 22 因為假基督們和假先知們會出現,行神蹟和奇事,如果有可能,甚至迷惑那些蒙揀選的人。 23 所以你們要當心。我已經預先把一切都告訴你們了。
人子的來臨
24 「在那些日子裡,隨著那患難,
『太陽就要變黑,
月亮也不發光,
25 星辰要從天上墜落,
諸天之上的各勢力也將被震動。』
26 那時候,人們將要看見人子帶著極大的權能和榮耀,在雲彩中來臨。 27 他要差派天使們,並且從四方,從地極到天邊,召集他所揀選的人。
無花果樹的比喻
28 「你們要從無花果樹那裡學個比喻:當無花果樹的枝子發嫩長出葉子的時候,你們就知道夏天快到了。 29 照樣,當你們看見這些事發生的時候,你們應當知道:人子[j]快到了,就在門口了。 30 我確實地告訴你們:在這一切事發生之前,這世代絕不會過去。 31 天和地將要消逝,但是我的話絕不會消逝。
無人知道那日子和那時刻
32 「至於那日子或那時刻,沒有人知道,連天上的天使們也不知道,子也不知道,唯有父知道。 33 你們要當心,要警醒[k];因為你們不知道那時刻是什麼時候。 34 這就像一個人出外旅行,離開了家,把權柄交給了他的奴僕們,又把工作分給了每個人,他吩咐看門的人要警醒。 35 所以你們要警醒,因為你們不知道這家的主人什麼時候回來,或傍晚,或半夜,或雞叫時,或凌晨; 36 免得他忽然回來,看見你們在睡覺。 37 我對你們說的,也對所有的人說:你們要警醒!」

Mark 13
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
The Destruction of the Temple Foretold
13 And as he came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher, what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!” 2 And Jesus said to him, “Do you see these great buildings? There will not be left here one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down.”
3 And as he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, 4 “Tell us, when will this be, and what will be the sign when these things are all to be accomplished?” 5 And Jesus began to say to them, “Take heed that no one leads you astray. 6 Many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and they will lead many astray. 7 And when you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed; this must take place, but the end is not yet. 8 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places, there will be famines; this is but the beginning of the sufferings.
Persecution Foretold
9 “But take heed to yourselves; for they will deliver you up to councils; and you will be beaten in synagogues; and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to bear testimony before them. 10 And the gospel must first be preached to all nations. 11 And when they bring you to trial and deliver you up, do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say; but say whatever is given you in that hour, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit. 12 And brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death; 13 and you will be hated by all for my name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.
The Desolating Sacrilege
14 “But when you see the desolating sacrilege set up where it ought not to be (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; 15 let him who is on the housetop not go down, nor enter his house, to take anything away; 16 and let him who is in the field not turn back to take his mantle. 17 And alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days! 18 Pray that it may not happen in winter. 19 For in those days there will be such tribulation as has not been from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, and never will be. 20 And if the Lord had not shortened the days, no human being would be saved; but for the sake of the elect, whom he chose, he shortened the days. 21 And then if any one says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it. 22 False Christs and false prophets will arise and show signs and wonders, to lead astray, if possible, the elect. 23 But take heed; I have told you all things beforehand.
The Coming of the Son of Man
24 “But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, 25 and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. 26 And then they will see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and glory. 27 And then he will send out the angels, and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven.
The Lesson of the Fig Tree
28 “From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near. 29 So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that he is near, at the very gates. 30 Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away before all these things take place. 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
The Necessity for Watchfulness
32 “But of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 33 Take heed, watch and pray;[a] for you do not know when the time will come. 34 It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to be on the watch. 35 Watch therefore—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning— 36 lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. 37 And what I say to you I say to all: Watch.”

Mark 13
New International Version
The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times(A)
13 As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!”
2 “Do you see all these great buildings?” replied Jesus. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”(B)
3 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives(C) opposite the temple, Peter, James, John(D) and Andrew asked him privately, 4 “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are all about to be fulfilled?”
5 Jesus said to them: “Watch out that no one deceives you.(E) 6 Many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and will deceive many. 7 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 8 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.
9 “You must be on your guard. You will be handed over to the local councils and flogged in the synagogues.(F) On account of me you will stand before governors and kings as witnesses to them. 10 And the gospel must first be preached to all nations. 11 Whenever you are arrested and brought to trial, do not worry beforehand about what to say. Just say whatever is given you at the time, for it is not you speaking, but the Holy Spirit.(G)
12 “Brother will betray brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death.(H) 13 Everyone will hate you because of me,(I) but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.(J)
14 “When you see ‘the abomination that causes desolation’[a](K) standing where it[b] does not belong—let the reader understand—then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 15 Let no one on the housetop go down or enter the house to take anything out. 16 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 17 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers!(L) 18 Pray that this will not take place in winter, 19 because those will be days of distress unequaled from the beginning, when God created the world,(M) until now—and never to be equaled again.(N)
20 “If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them. 21 At that time if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘Look, there he is!’ do not believe it.(O) 22 For false messiahs and false prophets(P) will appear and perform signs and wonders(Q) to deceive, if possible, even the elect. 23 So be on your guard;(R) I have told you everything ahead of time.
24 “But in those days, following that distress,
“‘the sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light;
25 the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’[c](S)
26 “At that time people will see the Son of Man coming in clouds(T) with great power and glory. 27 And he will send his angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens.(U)
28 “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near. 29 Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that it[d] is near, right at the door. 30 Truly I tell you, this generation(V) will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.(W) 31 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.(X)
The Day and Hour Unknown
32 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.(Y) 33 Be on guard! Be alert[e]!(Z) You do not know when that time will come. 34 It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants(AA) in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
35 “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. 36 If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. 37 What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”(AB)
