마태복음 24
Korean Living Bible
미래에 대한 예언
24 예수님이 성전에서 나가실 때 제자들이 와서 예수님께 성전 건물을 보 이려고 하자
2 예수님이 그들에게 말씀하셨다. “내가 분명히 말해 둔다. 너희가 보고 있는 이 건물이 돌 하나도 제대로 얹혀 있지 않고 다 무너져 내릴 것이다.”
3 예수님이 감람산에 올라 앉으셨을 때 제자들이 조용히 와서 물었다. “언제 이런 일이 일어나겠습니까? 또 주님이 오시고 세상이 끝날 때의 징조는 무엇입니까?”
4 그래서 예수님은 제자들에게 이렇게 대답하셨다. “너희는 아무에게도 속지 않도록 주의하라.
5 많은 사람들이 내 이름으로 와서 ‘내가 [a]그리스도이다’ 하고 말하며 많은 사람을 속일 것이다.
6 또 난리와 전쟁 소문을 듣더라도 두려워하지 말아라. 그런 일이 반드시 일어나야 하지만 끝은 아직 아니다.
7 민족과 민족이, 나라와 나라가 서로 맞서 싸울 것이며 곳곳에 기근과 지진이 있을 것이다.
8 그러나 이 모든 것은 [b]고통의 시작에 지나지 않는다.
9 “그 때에 너희는 사람들에게 잡혀 고통을 당하다가 죽을 것이며 나 때문에 모든 민족에게 미움을 받을 것이다.
10 또 많은 사람들이 [c]믿음에서 떠나 서로 배반하고 서로 미워할 것이며
11 많은 거짓 예언자들이 일어나 많은 사람을 속일 것이다.
12 그리고 악이 점점 더하므로 많은 사람들의 사랑이 식어질 것이다.
13 그러나 끝까지 견디는 사람은 구원을 받을 것이다.
14 이 하늘 나라의 기쁜 소식이 온 세계에 전파되어 모든 민족에게 증거가 될 것이니 그제서야 세상이 끝날 것이다.
15 “그러므로 너희는 예언자 다니엘을 통해 말씀하신 대로 [d]멸망케 하는 흉측한 것이 거룩한 곳에 선 것을 보거든 (읽는 사람은 깨달아라)
16 그때 유대에 있는 사람들은 산으로 도망하여라.
17 지붕 위에 있는 사람은 집 안의 물건을 가지러 내려가지 말고
18 들에 있는 사람은 겉옷을 가지러 집으로 돌아가지 말아라.
19 그때 아이 밴 여자들과 젖먹이가 딸린 여자들은 불행할 것이다.
20 너희는 도망하는 일이 겨울이나 안식일에 일어나지 않도록 기도하여라.
21 세상이 창조된 이후 이제까지 없었고 앞으로도 없을 큰 고난이 그때 있을 것이다.
22 만일 이 고난의 기간을 줄이지 않았더라면 아무도 살아 남지 못할 것이다. 그러나 선택된 사람들을 위해 그 기간이 줄어들 것이다.
23 그때 누가 너희에게 ‘그리스도가 여기 있다’, ‘저기 있다’ 하여도 믿지 말아라.
24 거짓 그리스도와 거짓 예언자들이 일어나 큰 기적과 놀라운 일을 행하여 할 수만 있으면 선택된 사람들까지 속이려고 할 것이다.
25 듣거라. 내가 너희에게 미리 말해 둔다.
26 사람들이 너희에게 ‘[e]그리스도가 광야에 있다’ 해도 너희는 나가지 말고 ‘골방에 있다’ 해도 믿지 말아라.
27 번개가 동쪽에서 서쪽까지 번쩍이듯 [f]나도 그렇게 올 것이다.
28 시체가 있는 곳에는 독수리가 모여들기 마련이다.
29 “그 고난의 기간이 지나면 해가 어두워지고 달이 빛을 내지 않을 것이며 별들이 떨어지고 [g]천체가 뒤흔들릴 것이다.
30 그 때에 내가 온다는 징조가 하늘에 나타날 것이니 세상의 모든 민족이 통곡할 것이다. 그들은 내가 구름을 타고 능력과 큰 영광으로 오는 것을 보게 될 것이다.
31 내가 큰 나팔 소리와 함께 천사들을 보낼 것이며 그들은 하늘 이 끝에서 저 끝까지 사방에서 선택된 사람들을 모을 것이다.
32 “무화과나무의 비유를 배워라. 가지가 연해지고 잎이 돋으면 여름이 가까운 줄 알지 않느냐?
33 이와 같이 너희도 이런 일들이 일어나는 것을 보거든 [h]내가 문 밖에 가까이 온 줄 알아라.
34 내가 분명히 말해 둔다. 이 세대가 지나가기 전에 이 모든 일이 반드시 일어날 것이다.
35 하늘과 땅은 없어질지라도 내 말은 결코 없어지지 않을 것이다.
36 그러나 내가 오는 그 날과 시간은 아무도 모른다. 하늘의 천사들과 [i]아들도 모르고 오직 아버지만 아신다.
37 내가 올 때에는 세상이 노아의 시대와 같을 것이다.
38 홍수 이전 사람들은 노아가 배에 들어가는 날까지 먹고 마시고 장가가고 시집가다가
39 홍수가 나서 그들을 다 쓸어 버릴 때까지도 그런 일이 일어나리라고는 전혀 예상하지 못했다. 마찬가지로 내가 올 때에도 그럴 것이다.
40 그때 두 사람이 들에 있어도 하나는 데려가고 하나는 버려 둘 것이며
41 두 여자가 맷돌을 갈고 있어도 하나는 데려가고 하나는 버려 둘 것이다.
42 그러므로 깨어 있어라. 어느 날에 너희 주님이 오실지 너희는 알지 못한다.
43 그러나 너희는 이것을 명심하라. 만일 집 주인이 밤에 도둑이 드는 시간을 알았다면 깨어 있다가 집에 도둑이 침입하지 못하게 했을 것이다.
44 그러므로 너희도 준비하고 있어라. 생각지 않은 때에 내가 올 것이다.
45 “충성스럽고 지혜로운 종이 되어 주인이 맡긴 집안 사람들에게 제때에 양식을 나눠 줄 사람이 누구냐?
46 주인이 돌아와서 그 종이 그렇게 하는 것을 보면 그 종은 정말 행복한 사람이다.
47 내가 분명히 말하지만 주인이 그의 모든 재산을 그 종에게 맡길 것이다.
48 그러나 그 종이 악하여 속으로 ‘내 주인은 오래 있다가 오실 것이다’ 라고 생각하며
49 함께 있는 종들을 때리고 술 친구들과 어울려 먹고 마신다면 어떻게 되겠느냐?
50 어느 날 생각지 않은 시간에 갑자기 그 종의 주인이 와서
51 그를 사정없이 때리고 위선자들과 똑같이 심판할 것이다. 거기서 그는 통곡하며 이를 갈 것이다.”
Matthew 24
New King James Version
Jesus Predicts the Destruction of the Temple(A)
24 Then (B)Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, (C)not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.”
The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age(D)
3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, (E)the disciples came to Him privately, saying, (F)“Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”
4 And Jesus answered and said to them: (G)“Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For (H)many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ (I)and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of (J)wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For (K)nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be (L)famines, [b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 (M)“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another. 11 Then (N)many false prophets will rise up and (O)deceive many. 12 And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow (P)cold. 13 (Q)But he who endures to the end shall be saved. 14 And this (R)gospel of the kingdom (S)will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.
The Great Tribulation(T)
15 (U)“Therefore when you see the (V)‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place” (W)(whoever reads, let him understand), 16 “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house. 18 And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes. 19 But (X)woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! 20 And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For (Y)then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be. 22 And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; (Z)but for the [c]elect’s sake those days will be shortened.
23 (AA)“Then if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There!’ do not believe it. 24 For (AB)false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, (AC)if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you beforehand.
26 “Therefore if they say to you, ‘Look, He is in the desert!’ do not go out; or ‘Look, He is in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. 27 (AD)For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 28 (AE)For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.
The Coming of the Son of Man(AF)
29 (AG)“Immediately after the tribulation of those days (AH)the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 (AI)Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, (AJ)and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 (AK)And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His [d]elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
The Parable of the Fig Tree(AL)
32 “Now learn (AM)this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 So you also, when you see all these things, know (AN)that [e]it is near—at the doors! 34 Assuredly, I say to you, (AO)this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. 35 (AP)Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.
No One Knows the Day or Hour(AQ)
36 (AR)“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of [f]heaven, (AS)but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 (AT)For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 (AU)Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. 42 (AV)Watch therefore, for you do not know what [g]hour your Lord is coming. 43 (AW)But know this, that if the master of the house had known what [h]hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 (AX)Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.
The Faithful Servant and the Evil Servant(AY)
45 (AZ)“Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food [i]in due season? 46 (BA)Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. 47 Assuredly, I say to you that (BB)he will make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master (BC)is delaying [j]his coming,’ 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards, 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is (BD)not aware of, 51 and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. (BE)There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

King James Version
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.
2 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.
3 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?
4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 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.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 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.
