預言聖殿被毀(A)

24 耶穌出了聖殿,往前走的時候,門徒前來把聖殿的建築指給他看。 他對門徒說:“你們不是看見了這一切嗎?我實在告訴你們,將來在這裡必沒有一塊石頭留在另一塊石頭上面,每一塊都要拆下來。”

這世代終結的預兆(B)

耶穌坐在橄欖山上,門徒暗中前來問他:“請告訴我們,甚麼時候會有這些事呢?你的降臨和這世代的終結,有甚麼預兆呢?” 耶穌回答他們:“你們要小心,不要被人迷惑; 因為許多人要假冒我的名而來,說:‘我就是基督’,並且要迷惑許多的人。 你們要聽見戰爭,也聽見戰爭的風聲;你們要小心,不要驚慌,因為這是免不了的,不過結局還沒有到。 一個民族要起來攻打另一個民族,一個國家要起來攻打另一個國家,到處都有饑荒和地震, 這一切不過是痛苦的開始。 那時人要把你們送去受苦,也要殺害你們,你們要因我的名被萬民恨惡。 10 那時許多人會失去信仰,彼此出賣,互相恨惡; 11 也有許多假先知出現,要迷惑許多人。 12 因為不法的事增加,許多人的愛心就冷淡了。 13 唯有堅忍到底的,必然得救。 14 這天國的福音要傳遍天下,向萬民作見證,然後結局才來到。

大災難的日子(C)

15 “當你們看見但以理先知所說的‘那造成荒涼的可憎者’,站在聖地的時候(讀者必須領悟), 16 那時,住在猶太的應當逃到山上; 17 在房頂的不要下來拿家裡的東西; 18 在田裡的也不要回去取衣服。 19 當那些日子,懷孕的和乳養孩子的有禍了! 20 你們應當祈求,叫你們逃難的時候,不是在冬天或安息日, 21 因為那時必有大災難,這是從世界的開始到現在未曾有過的,以後也必不會再有。 22 如果那些日子不減少,沒有一個人可以存活;但是為了選民,那些日子必會減少。 23 那時,如果有人對你們說:‘看哪,基督在這裡!’或說:‘他在那裡!’你們不要信, 24 因為必有假基督和假先知出現,顯大神蹟和奇事;如果可以的話,他們連選民也要迷惑。 25 你們看!我已經事先告訴你們了。 26 如果他們對你們說:‘看!基督在曠野裡。’你們不要出去;或說:‘看!他在內室裡。’也不要相信。 27 電光怎樣從東方閃出來,一直照到西方,人子降臨的時候,也是這樣。 28 屍首在哪裡,鷹也必聚在哪裡。

人子必駕雲降臨(D)

29 “那些日子的災難剛過去:

太陽就變黑了,

月亮也不發光,

眾星從天墜落,

天上的萬象震動。

30 “那時,人子的徵兆要顯在天上,地上的萬族都要哀號,並且看見人子帶著能力,滿有榮耀,駕著天上的雲降臨。 31 當號筒發出響聲,他要差派使者,把他的選民從四方,從天這邊到天那邊都招聚來。

32 “你們應該從無花果樹學個功課:樹枝長出嫩芽生出葉子的時候,你們就知道夏天近了; 33 同樣,當你們看見這一切,就知道人子已經近在門口了。 34 我實在告訴你們,這一切都必要發生,然後這世代才會過去。 35 天地都要過去,但我的話決不會廢去。

警醒準備(E)

36 “至於那日子和時間,沒有人知道,連天上的使者和子也不知道,只有父知道。 37 挪亞的時代怎樣,人子降臨的時候也是這樣。 38 洪水之前的時代,人們吃喝嫁娶,直到挪亞進入方舟的那一天; 39 等到洪水來到,把他們沖去,他們才明白過來;人子降臨的時候也是這樣。 40 那時,兩個人在田裡工作,一個被接去,一個撇下來; 41 兩個女人在磨坊推磨,一個被接去,一個撇下來。 42 因此,你們要警醒,因為不知道你們的主甚麼時候要來。 43 你們都知道,家主若曉得竊賊晚上甚麼時候會來,就會提高警覺,不讓他摸進屋裡。 44 所以,你們也要準備妥當,因為在想不到的時候,人子就來了。

忠心的僕人有福了(F)

45 “誰是忠心和精明的僕人,被主人指派管理全家,按時分派糧食的呢? 46 主人來到,看見他這樣作,那僕人就有福了。 47 我實在告訴你們,主人要指派他管理自己的一切財產。 48 如果他是個壞的僕人,心裡說‘我的主人不會那麼快回來’, 49 就動手打其他的僕人,又和醉酒的人吃喝。 50 在他想不到的日子,不知道的時間,那僕人的主人要來, 51 嚴厲地處罰他,使他和虛偽的人同在一起;在那裡必要哀哭切齒。”

預言聖殿被毀

24 耶穌離開聖殿時,門徒上前把宏偉的聖殿指給祂看。 耶穌對他們說:「你們看見這殿宇了嗎?我實在告訴你們,將來它要被完全拆毀,在這裡找不到兩塊疊在一起的石頭。」

世界末日的預兆

耶穌正坐在橄欖山上,門徒私下來問祂:「請告訴我們,這事什麼時候會發生?你再來和世界末日的時候會有什麼預兆?」

耶穌回答說:「你們要小心,免得被人迷惑。 因為將來會有許多人冒我的名而來,說『我是基督』,欺騙許多人。 你們聽見戰爭爆發、戰訊頻傳時,不要驚慌,因為這些事必然發生,只是末日還沒有到。 民族將與民族互鬥,國家將與國家相爭,各處將有饑荒和地震。 這些只是災難[a]的開始。

「那時,你們將遭人迫害、殺害,並因我的名而被萬民憎恨。 10 那時,許多人會放棄信仰,互相出賣,彼此憎恨。 11 許多假先知也會出現,迷惑許多人。 12 由於罪惡氾濫,許多人的愛逐漸冷淡。 13 但堅忍到底的必定得救。 14 這天國的福音將傳遍天下,讓萬民都聽見,然後末日才會來臨。

15 「當你們看見但以理先知所說的『那帶來毀滅的可憎之物』站立在聖地的時候(讀者須會意), 16 住在猶太地區的人要趕快逃到山上去, 17 在屋頂上的人不要下來進屋收拾行李, 18 在田間工作的人也不要回家取外衣。 19 那時,孕婦和哺育嬰兒的母親們可就遭殃了! 20 你們要祈求上帝,不要讓你們在冬天或安息日逃難, 21 因為那時世上將有空前絕後的大災難。 22 如果不縮短災期,恐怕沒有人能活命。但為了選民的緣故,災期必被縮短。

23 「那時,如果有人對你們說,『看啊!基督在這裡』,或說,『基督在那裡』,你們不要相信。 24 因為假基督和假先知將出現,行很大的神蹟奇事來迷惑人,如果可能,甚至要迷惑上帝揀選的子民。 25 你們要記住,我已經預先告訴你們了。

26 「因此,如果有人對你們說,『看啊!基督在曠野』,你們不要出去;或者說,『看啊!基督在屋裡』,你們也不要相信。 27 人子降臨時的情形就像閃電從東方發出一直照到西方。 28 屍體在哪裡,禿鷹就會聚集在哪裡。

29 「當災難的日子一過,

『太陽變黑,
月亮無光,
眾星隕落,
天體震動。』

30 「那時,天上會出現人子降臨的預兆,地上的萬族都要哀哭,他們將看見人子帶著能力和極大的榮耀駕著天上的雲降臨。 31 在響亮的號聲中,祂將差遣天使從四面八方、天涯海角招聚祂揀選的人。

無花果樹的比喻

32 「你們可以從無花果樹學個道理。當無花果樹發芽長葉的時候,你們就知道夏天快來了。 33 同樣,當你們看見這一切事發生時,就知道人子快來了,就在門口。 34 我實在告訴你們,這個世代還沒有過去,這一切都要發生。 35 天地都要過去,但我的話永遠長存。

警醒準備

36 「但沒有人知道那日子和時辰何時來到,連天上的天使也不知道,人子[b]也不知道,只有天父知道。 37 人子降臨時的情形就像挪亞的時代。 38 洪水來臨之前,人們吃吃喝喝,男婚女嫁,一直到挪亞進方舟那天; 39 他們懵然不知,直到洪水來把他們全沖走了。人子降臨時的情形也是這樣。 40 那時,兩個人在田裡,一個將被接去,一個將被撇下; 41 兩個婦人推磨,一個將被接去,一個將被撇下。 42 所以,你們要警醒,因為你們不知道你們的主會在哪一天來。 43 你們都知道,如果一家的主人知道賊會在半夜幾點來,就必警醒,不讓賊入屋偷竊。 44 同樣,你們也要做好準備,因為在你們意想不到的時候,人子就來了。

兩種奴僕

45 「誰是那個受主人委託管理家中大小僕役、按時分糧食給他們、又忠心又精明的奴僕呢? 46 主人回家時,看見他盡忠職守,他就有福了。 47 我實在告訴你們,主人一定會把所有產業都交給他管理。 48 但如果奴僕邪惡,以為主人不會那麼快回來, 49 就毆打同伴,跟醉漢一起吃喝玩樂, 50 主人會在他想不到的日子、不知道的時辰回來, 51 嚴厲地懲罰[c]他,判他和偽君子同樣的罪。他必在那裡哀哭切齒。

24 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
