Mateo 24
Nueva Biblia de las Américas

Profecía sobre la destrucción del templo

24 (A)Cuando Jesús salió del templo, y se iba, se acercaron Sus discípulos para mostrarle los edificios del templo. 2 Pero Él les dijo: «¿Ven[a]todo esto? En verdad les digo que no quedará aquí piedra sobre piedra que no sea derribada(B)».

Señales antes del fin

3 Estando Jesús sentado en el monte de los Olivos(C), se acercaron a Él los discípulos en privado, y le preguntaron: «Dinos, ¿cuándo sucederá[b] esto, y cuál será la señal de Tu venida[c](D) y de la consumación[d] de este siglo?». 4 Jesús les respondió: «Tengan cuidado de que nadie los engañe(E). 5 Porque muchos vendrán en Mi nombre(F), diciendo: “Yo soy el Cristo”, y engañarán a muchos. 6 Ustedes van a oír de guerras y rumores de guerras(G). ¡Cuidado! No se alarmen, porque es necesario que todo esto suceda; pero todavía no es el fin. 7 Porque se levantará nación contra nación(H), y reino contra reino, y en diferentes lugares habrá hambre y terremotos(I). 8 Pero todo esto es solo el comienzo de dolores[e](J).

9 »Entonces los entregarán a tribulación(K) , y los matarán, y serán odiados de todas las naciones por causa de mi nombre(L) . 10 Muchos se apartarán de la fe[f]entonces(M), y se traicionarán unos a otros, y unos a otros se odiarán. 11 Se levantarán muchos falsos profetas(N), y a muchos engañarán. 12 Y debido al aumento de la iniquidad, el amor de muchos se enfriará. 13 Pero el que persevere hasta el fin, ese será salvo(O). 14 Y este evangelio del reino se predicará(P)en todo el mundo[g](Q)como testimonio a todas las naciones(R), y entonces vendrá el fin.

La abominación de la desolación

15 »Por tanto, cuando ustedes vean la abominación de la desolación(S) , de que se habló por medio del profeta Daniel, colocada[h] en el lugar santo(T) , y el que lea que entienda(U) , 16 entonces los que estén en Judea, huyan a los montes. 17 El que esté en la azotea, no baje a sacar las cosas de su casa(V); 18 y el que esté en el campo, no vuelva atrás a tomar su capa. 19 Pero ¡ay de las que estén encinta y de las que estén criando en aquellos días(W)!

20 »Oren para que la huida de ustedes no suceda en invierno, ni en día de reposo. 21 Porque habrá entonces una gran tribulación(X), tal como no ha acontecido desde el principio del mundo hasta ahora, ni acontecerá jamás. 22 Y si aquellos días no fueran acortados, nadie[i]se salvaría; pero por causa de los escogidos[j], aquellos días serán acortados(Y).

23 »Entonces si alguien les dice: “Miren, aquí está el Cristo”, o “Allí[k] está”, no lo crean(Z) . 24 Porque se levantarán falsos Cristos y falsos profetas(AA), y mostrarán grandes señales[l]y prodigios(AB), para así engañar, de ser posible, aun a los escogidos[m](AC). 25 Vean que se lo he dicho de antemano. 26 Por tanto, si les dicen: “Miren, Él está en el desierto”, no vayan; o “Miren, Él está en las habitaciones interiores”, no les crean. 27 Porque así como el relámpago sale del oriente(AD)y resplandece hasta el occidente, así será la venida[n](AE)del Hijo del Hombre(AF). 28 Donde esté el cadáver, allí se juntarán los buitres[o](AG).

29 »Pero inmediatamente después de la tribulación(AH) de esos días, el sol se oscurecerá(AI) , la luna no dará su luz, las estrellas caerán(AJ) del cielo y las potencias de los cielos serán sacudidas. 30 Entonces aparecerá en el cielo la señal del Hijo del Hombre(AK); y todas las tribus de la tierra harán duelo, y verán al Hijo del Hombre que viene sobre las nubes del cielo(AL)con poder y gran gloria. 31 Y Él enviará a Sus ángeles(AM)con una gran trompeta(AN)y reunirán a Sus escogidos[p](AO)de los cuatro vientos(AP), desde un extremo de los cielos hasta el otro[q](AQ).

Parábola de la higuera

32 »De la higuera aprendan la parábola: cuando su rama ya se pone tierna y echa las hojas, saben que el verano está cerca. 33 Así también ustedes, cuando vean todas estas cosas, sepan que Él está[r]cerca, a las puertas(AR). 34 En verdad les digo que no pasará esta generación(AS)hasta que todo esto suceda. 35 El cielo y la tierra pasarán(AT), pero Mis palabras no pasarán.

36 »Pero de aquel día y hora nadie sabe(AU) , ni siquiera los ángeles del cielo, ni el Hijo, sino solo el Padre. 37 Porque como en los días de Noé(AV), así será la venida[s]del Hijo del Hombre(AW). 38 Pues así como en aquellos días antes del diluvio estaban comiendo y bebiendo, casándose y dándose en matrimonio(AX), hasta el día en que Noé entró en el arca(AY), 39 y no comprendieron[t]hasta que vino el diluvio y se los llevó a todos; así será la venida[u]del Hijo del Hombre(AZ).

40 »Entonces estarán dos en el campo; uno será[v] llevado y el otro será[w] dejado. 41 Dos mujeres(BA)estarán moliendo en el molino(BB); una será[x]llevada y la otra será[y]dejada. 42 Por tanto, velen[z](BC), porque no saben en qué día viene su Señor. 43 Pero entiendan esto[aa]: si el dueño de la casa(BD)hubiera sabido a qué hora de la noche iba a venir el ladrón(BE), hubiera estado alerta y no hubiera permitido que entrara en[ab]su casa. 44 Por eso, también ustedes estén preparados(BF), porque a la hora que no piensan vendrá el Hijo del Hombre(BG).

Parábola del siervo fiel y del infiel

45 »¿(BH) Quién es, pues, el siervo fiel(BI) y prudente(BJ) a quien su señor puso sobre(BK) los de su casa para que les diera la comida a su tiempo? 46 Dichoso[ac]aquel siervo a quien, cuando su señor venga, lo encuentre haciendo así. 47 De cierto les digo que lo pondrá sobre todos sus bienes(BL). 48 Pero si aquel siervo es malo, y dice en su corazón: “Mi señor tardará[ad]”; 49 y empieza a golpear a sus consiervos, y come y bebe con los que se emborrachan, 50 vendrá el señor de aquel siervo el día que no lo espera, y a una hora que no sabe, 51 y lo azotará severamente[ae]y le asignará un lugar[af]con los hipócritas; allí será el llanto y el crujir de dientes(BM).

Matthew 24
Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Jesus Tells His Disciples That The Temple Will Be Destroyed. They Ask, When?

24 And having departed from the temple, Jesus was proceeding. And His disciples came to Him to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 But the One, having responded, said to them, “Do you see all these things? Truly I say to you— a stone upon a stone will by no means be left here which will not be torn-down[a]”. 3 And while He was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us— when will these[b] things happen? And what will be the sign of Your coming and the conclusion[c] of the age?” 4 And having responded, Jesus said to them—

There Will Be Birthpangs, But The Gospel Will Reach The Whole World Before The End

“Be watching out that no one may deceive you. 5 For[d] many will come on the basis of My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ’. And they will deceive many. 6 And you will-certainly[e] hear-of wars and rumors of wars. See[f] that you are not alarmed! For they must take place, but it is not yet the end. 7 For nation will arise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 But all these things are[g] a beginning of birth-pains. 9 Then[h] they will hand you over to affliction, and they will kill you. And you will be being hated by all the nations because of My name. 10 And then[i] many will be caused-to-fall, and will hand one another over, and will hate one another. 11 And many false-prophets will arise and deceive many. 12 And the love of the majority will grow cold because of lawlessness being multiplied. 13 But the one having endured to the end[j]— this one will be saved. 14 And this good-news of the kingdom will be proclaimed in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations. And then the end[k] will come.

When You See Daniel’s Abomination, Flee. For There Will Be a Great Affliction

15 “Therefore when you see[l] the abomination of desolation[m]— the thing having been spoken through Daniel the prophet— standing in the holy place[n] (let the one reading understand), 16 then let the ones in Judea be fleeing to the mountains. 17 Let the one upon the housetop not go down to take the things out of his house. 18 And let the one in the field not turn behind to take his cloak. 19 And woe to the ones having a child in the womb, and to the ones nursing in those days. 20 And be praying that your flight may not take place in winter, nor on a Sabbath. 21 For then[o] there will be a great affliction[p] such as has not taken place since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will take place. 22 And if those days had not been shortened[q], no[r] flesh would have been saved. But those days will be shortened for the sake of the chosen ones.

Do Not Be Deceived. My Coming Will Be As Visible To All As Lightning

23 Then[s] if someone says to you, ‘Behold— here is the Christ,’ or ‘Here’, do not believe it. 24 For false-christs and false-prophets will arise and give great signs and wonders, so as to deceive, if possible, even the chosen ones. 25 Behold— I have told you beforehand. 26 Therefore, if they say to you, ‘Behold— He is in the wilderness’, do not go out; ‘Behold— He is in the inner-rooms’, do not believe it. 27 For just as the lightning comes out from the east and is visible[t] as far as the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 28 Wherever the corpse[u] may be, there the vultures will be gathered.

After That Affliction, The Powers Will Be Shaken. I Will Come On The Clouds In Glory

29 “And immediately after the affliction of those days, the sun[v] will be darkened, and the moon will not give its glow, and the stars will fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 And then[w] the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the heaven. And at-that-time all the tribes of the earth will beat-their-breasts. And they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And He will send-out His angels with a loud trumpet. And they will gather together His chosen ones from the four winds, from the ends[x] of the heavens to their [other] ends.

The Parable of The Fig Tree: When You See These Things, You Know I Am Near

32 “Now learn the parable from the fig-tree[y]: when its branch already becomes tender and grows-out its leaves, you know that the summer is near. 33 So also you— when you see all[z] these things, you know[aa] that He[ab] is near, at the doors. 34 Truly I say to you that this[ac] generation will by no means pass away until all these things take place. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by-no-means pass away.

But No One Knows The Day And Hour, So Keep Watching And Be Prepared Always

36 “But no one knows about that day and hour— not even the angels of the heavens, nor the Son— except the Father alone. 37 For just as the days of Noah were, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving-in-marriage, until which day Noah entered into the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took-away everyone, so also[ad] will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 At-that-time there will be two men in the field— one is taken, and one is left; 41 two women grinding at the mill— one is taken[ae], and one is left. 42 Therefore keep-watching, because you do not know on which day your Lord is coming. 43 And you know[af] that saying, that if the house-master had known on which watch[ag] the thief was coming, he would have kept-watch[ah] and would not have allowed his house to be broken-into. 44 For this reason you also be prepared ones— because the Son of Man is coming at an hour which you do not expect.

Wise Servants Found Working When The Master Returns Will Be Put In Charge of More

45 “Who then[ai] is the faithful and wise slave whom his master put-in-charge[aj] over his body-of-servants[ak] that he might give them their food at the proper-time? 46 Blessed is that slave whom his master, having come, will find so doing. 47 Truly I say to you that he will put him in charge over all his possessions. 48 But if that bad slave says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying’, 49 and begins to strike his fellow-slaves, and is eating and drinking with the ones being drunk— 50 the master of that slave will come on a day which he does not expect, and at an hour which he does not know. 51 And he will cut him in two, and assign him his part[al] with the hypocrites. In that place, there will be the weeping and the grinding of teeth.

  4. Matthew 24:5 Some think v 5-14 refer to events prior to the destruction of Jerusalem in a.d. 70; others, to birth-pains that started in the apostles’ day and continue until the end, which begins in v 14b; others, that Jesus intended a double meaning, one for the apostles’ day and one for the end-time when these birth-pains will precede the end.

  6. Matthew 24:6 Or, Watch out! Do not be alarmed!

Or, At that time (at the time of the birth-pains). The meaning can be affected by which rendering is chosen. This word is also in 24:10, 14, 16, 21, 23, 30, 40; 25:1, 7, 31, 34, 37, 41, 44, 45.

  11. Matthew 24:14 That is, the coming of Christ; or, the beginning of the end time.
  12. Matthew 24:15 Some think that this is the sign of the destruction of Jerusalem, as in Lk 21:20-24; others, that it is the sign of the beginning of the end time, as in 2 Thes 2:3-4; others, both.
  13. Matthew 24:15 That is, an act of sacrilege characterized by or consisting of or resulting in desolation. The term comes from Dan 9:27; 11:31; 12:11.
  14. Matthew 24:15 This could refer to the a.d. 70 temple or an end-time temple of God, or to Jerusalem, or to Judea.

  16. Matthew 24:21 Or, distress, trouble, tribulation.

Or, linking this with v 24, the false prophets (the vultures) will gather upon the spiritually dead (the corpses). Or, linking this with v 15-26, Jerusalem (the corpse) will attract the Roman ‘eagles’ (as ‘vultures’ can also be rendered). Or, this may be a general rule: As corpses attract vultures, so the spiritually dead will attract judgment.

  24. Matthew 24:31 Or, extremities. That is, from horizon to horizon; or, from all earth (the four winds) and all heaven.

  26. Matthew 24:33 When you see all of v 5-29 or 15-29, you are seeing the tree leafed out.
  27. Matthew 24:33 Or, know that (a command).
  28. Matthew 24:33 Or, it, Christ’s coming.
  29. Matthew 24:34 Some think Jesus means the apostles’ generation, which would see all these things (v 5 or 15 to v 28 or 29) fulfilled in the destruction of Jerusalem (compare 23:36). Since that day, He is at the door. Others think He means the generation alive to see all these things in the end-time. Others think ‘this generation’ refers to unbelieving Israel (as often in the Gospels). Such persons will continue until He returns.
  30. Matthew 24:39 That is, life was going on as normal, and God suddenly and unexpectedly intervened into human history.
  31. Matthew 24:41 Or, taken along... left behind. Some think believers are taken, referring either to protection on earth (as with Noah) or in heaven (through the rapture); unbelievers are left for judgment. Others think unbelievers are taken in judgment, believers are left on earth (like Noah).
  32. Matthew 24:43 Or, know that ( a command to understand).
  33. Matthew 24:43 That is, watch of the night. The night was divided into four watches.
  34. Matthew 24:43 That is, he would have been prepared for the thief when he came. Since he does not know when the thief is coming, he must be prepared at all times.
  35. Matthew 24:45 In view of the sudden nature of Christ’s return, who is the wise slave among those left to lead when the master left? The wise one is the one doing his will when he returns.
  36. Matthew 24:45 Or, appointed, set.
  37. Matthew 24:45 That is, the master’s group of servants which he left to do whatever tasks he had assigned to them.
  38. Matthew 24:51 Or, share, place.

Matthew 24
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.
