누가복음 21

1예수께서 눈을 들어 부자들이 연보궤에 헌금 넣는 것을 보시고 2또 어떤 가난한 과부의 두 렙돈 넣는 것을 보시고 3가라사대 내가 참으로 너희에게 말하노니 이 가난한 과부가 모든 사람보다 많이 넣었도다 4저들은 그 풍족한 중에서 헌금을 넣었거니와 이 과부는 그 구차한 중에서 자기의 있는 바 생활비 전부를 넣었느니라 하시니라 5어떤 사람들이 성전을 가리켜 그 미석과 헌물로 꾸민 것을 말하매 예수께서 가라사대 6너희 보는 이것들이 날이 이르면 돌 하나도 돌 위에 남지 않고 다 무너뜨리우리라 7저희가 물어 가로되 선생님이여 그러면 어느 때에 이런 일이 있겠사오며 이런 일이 이루려 할 때에 무슨 징조가 있사오리이까 8가라사대 미혹을 받지 않도록 주의하라 많은 사람이 내 이름으로 와서 이르되 내가 그로라 하며 때가 가까웠다 하겠으나 저희를 좇지 말라 9난리와 소란의 소문을 들을 때에 두려워 말라 이 일이 먼저 있어야 하되 끝은 곧 되지 아니하니라 10또 이르시되 민족이 민족을, 나라가 나라를 대적하여 일어나겠고 11처처에 큰 지진과 기근과 온역이 있겠고 또 무서운 일과 하늘로서 큰 징조들이 있으리라 12이 모든 일 전에 내 이름을 인하여 너희에게 손을 대어 핍박하며 회당과 옥에 넘겨주며 임금들과 관장들 앞에 끌어 가려니와 13이 일이 도리어 너희에게 증거가 되리라 14그러므로 너희는 변명할 것을 미리 연구치 않기로 결심하라 15내가 너희의 모든 대적이 능히 대항하거나 변박할 수 없는 구재와 지혜를 너희에게 주리라 16심지어 부모와 형제와 친척과 벗이 너희를 넘겨주어 너희 중에 몇을 죽이게 하겠고 17또 너희가 내 이름을 인하여 모든 사람에게 미움을 받을 것이나 18너희 머리털 하나도 상치 아니하리라 19너희의 인내로 너희 영혼을 얻으리라 20너희가 예루살렘이 군대들에게 에워싸이는 것을 보거든 그 멸망이 가까운 줄을 알라 21그 때에 유대에 있는 자들은 산으로 도망할지며 성내에 있는 자들은 나갈지며 촌에 있는 자들은 그리로 들어가지 말지어다 22이 날들은 기록된 모든 것을 이루는 형벌의 날이니라 23그 날에는 아이 밴 자들과 젖먹이는 자들에게 화가 있으리니 이는 땅에 큰 환난과 이 백성에게 진노가 있겠음이로다 24저희가 칼날에 죽임을 당하며 모든 이방에 사로잡혀 가겠고 예루살렘은 이방인의 때가 차기까지 이방인들에게 밟히리라 25일월 성신에는 징조가 있겠고 땅에서는 민족들이 바다와 파도의 우는 소리를 인하여 혼란한 중에 곤고하리라 26사람들이 세상에 임할 일을 생각하고 무서워하므로 기절하리니 이는 하늘의 권능들이 흔들리겠음이라 27그 때에 사람들이 인자가 구름을 타고 능력과 큰 영광으로 오는 것을 보리라 28이런 일이 되기를 시작하거든 일어나 머리를 들라 너희 구속이 가까웠느니라 하시더라 29이에 비유로 이르시되 무화과나무와 모든 나무를 보라 30싹이 나면 너희가 보고 여름이 가까운 줄을 자연히 아나니 31이와 같이 너희가 이런 일이 나는 것을 보거든 하나님의 나라가 가까운 줄을 알라 32내가 진실로 너희에게 말하노니 이 세대가 지나가기 전에 모든 일이 다 이루리라 33천지는 없어지겠으나 내 말은 없어지지 아니하리라 34너희는 스스로 조심하라 그렇지 않으면 방탕함과 술취함과 생활의 염려로 마음이 둔하여지고 뜻밖에 그 날이 덫과 같이 너희에게 임하리라 35이 날은 온 지구상에 거하는 모든 사람에게 임하리라 36이러므로 너희는 장차 올 이 모든 일을 능히 피하고 인자 앞에 서도록 항상 기도하며 깨어 있으라 하시니라 37예수께서 낮이면 성전에서 가르치시고 밤이면 나가 감람원이라 하는 산에서 쉬시니 38모든 백성이 그 말씀을 들으려고 이른 아침에 성전에 나아가더라

1He looked up, and saw the rich people who were putting their gifts into the treasury. 2He saw a certain poor widow casting in two small brass coins. 3He said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow put in more than all of them, 4for all these put in gifts for God from their abundance, but she, out of her poverty, put in all that she had to live on.” 5As some were talking about the temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts, he said, 6“As for these things which you see, the days will come, in which there will not be left here one stone on another that will not be thrown down.” 7They asked him, “Teacher, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?” 8He said, “Watch out that you don’t get led astray, for many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is at hand.’ Therefore don’t follow them. 9When you hear of wars and disturbances, don’t be terrified, for these things must happen first, but the end won’t come immediately.” 10Then he said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11There will be great earthquakes, famines, and plagues in various places. There will be terrors and great signs from heaven. 12But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and will persecute you, delivering you up to synagogues and prisons, bringing you before kings and governors for my name’s sake. 13It will turn out as a testimony for you. 14Settle it therefore in your hearts not to meditate beforehand how to answer, 15for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict. 16You will be handed over even by parents, brothers, relatives, and friends. They will cause some of you to be put to death. 17You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake. 18And not a hair of your head will perish. 19“By your endurance you will win your lives. 20“But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is at hand. 21Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. Let those who are in the midst of her depart. Let those who are in the country not enter therein. 22For these are days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. 23Woe to those who are pregnant and to those who nurse infants in those days! For there will be great distress in the land, and wrath to this people. 24They will fall by the edge of the sword, and will be led captive into all the nations. Jerusalem will be trampled down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. 25There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars; and on the earth anxiety of nations, in perplexity for the roaring of the sea and the waves; 26men fainting for fear, and for expectation of the things which are coming on the world: for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 27Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. 28But when these things begin to happen, look up, and lift up your heads, because your redemption is near.” 29He told them a parable. “See the fig tree, and all the trees. 30When they are already budding, you see it and know by your own selves that the summer is already near. 31Even so you also, when you see these things happening, know that the Kingdom of God is near. 32Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all things are accomplished. 33Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away. 34“So be careful, or your hearts will be loaded down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that day will come on you suddenly. 35For it will come like a snare on all those who dwell on the surface of all the earth. 36Therefore be watchful all the time, praying that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will happen, and to stand before the Son of Man.” 37Every day Jesus was teaching in the temple, and every night he would go out and spend the night on the mountain that is called Olivet. 38All the people came early in the morning to him in the temple to hear him.

1En opziende, zag Hij de rijken hun gaven in de schatkist werpen. 2En Hij zag ook een zekere arme weduwe twee kleine penningen daarin werpen. 3En Hij zeide: Waarlijk, Ik zeg u, dat deze arme weduwe meer dan allen heeft in geworpen. 4Want die allen hebben van hun overvloed geworpen tot de gaven Gods; maar deze heeft van haar gebrek, al den leeftocht, dien zij had, daarin geworpen. 5En als sommigen zeiden van den tempel, dat hij met schonen stenen en begiftigingen versierd was, zeide Hij: 6Wat deze dingen aangaat, die gij aanschouwt, er zullen dagen komen, in welke niet een steen op den anderen steen zal gelaten worden, die niet zal worden afgebroken. 7En zij vraagden Hem, zeggende: Meester, wanneer zullen dan deze dingen zijn, en welk is het teken, wanneer deze dingen zullen geschieden? 8En Hij zeide: Ziet, dat gij niet verleid wordt; want velen zullen er komen onder Mijn Naam, zeggende: Ik ben de Christus; en de tijd is nabij gekomen, gaat dan hen niet na. 9En wanneer gij zult horen van oorlogen en beroerten, zo wordt niet verschrikt; want deze dingen moeten eerst geschieden; maar nog is terstond het einde niet. 10Toen zeide Hij tot hen: Het ene volk zal tegen het andere volk opstaan, en het ene koninkrijk tegen het andere koninkrijk. 11En er zullen grote aardbevingen wezen in verscheidene plaatsen, en hongersnoden, en pestilentien; er zullen ook schrikkelijke dingen, en grote tekenen van den hemel geschieden. 12Maar voor dit alles, zullen zij hun handen aan ulieden slaan, en u vervolgen, u overleverende in de synagogen en gevangenissen; en gij zult getrokken worden voor koningen en stadhouders, om Mijns Naams wil. 13En dit zal u overkomen tot een getuigenis. 14Neemt dan in uw harten voor, van te voren niet te overdenken, hoe gij u verantwoorden zult; 15Want Ik zal u mond en wijsheid geven, welke niet zullen kunnen tegenspreken, noch wederstaan allen, die zich tegen u zetten. 16En gij zult overgeleverd worden ook van ouders, en broeders, en magen, en vrienden; en zij zullen er sommigen uit u doden. 17En gij zult van allen gehaat worden om Mijns Naams wil. 18Doch niet een haar uit uw hoofd zal verloren gaan. 19Bezit uw zielen in uw lijdzaamheid. 20Maar wanneer gij zien zult, dat Jeruzalem van heirlegers omsingeld wordt, zo weet alsdan, dat haar verwoesting nabij gekomen is. 21Alsdan die in Judea zijn, dat zij vlieden naar de bergen; en die in het midden van dezelve zijn, dat zij daaruit trekken; en die op de velden zijn, dat zij in dezelve niet komen. 22Want deze zijn dagen der wraak, opdat alles vervuld worde, dat geschreven is. 23Doch wee den bevruchten en den zogenden vrouwen in die dagen, want er zal grote nood zijn in het land, en toorn over dit volk. 24En zij zullen vallen door de scherpte des zwaards, en gevankelijk weggevoerd worden onder alle volken; en Jeruzalem zal van de heidenen vertreden worden, totdat de tijden der heidenen vervuld zullen zijn. 25En er zullen tekenen zijn in de zon, en maan, en sterren, en op de aarde benauwdheid der volken met twijfelmoedigheid, als de zee en watergolven groot geluid zullen geven; 26En den mensen het hart zal bezwijken van vrees en verwachting der dingen, die het aardrijk zullen overkomen; want de krachten der hemelen zullen bewogen worden. 27En alsdan zullen zij den Zoon des mensen zien komen in een wolk, met grote kracht en heerlijkheid. 28Als nu deze dingen beginnen te geschieden, zo ziet omhoog, en heft uw hoofden opwaarts, omdat uw verlossing nabij is. 29En Hij zeide tot hen een gelijkenis: Ziet den vijgeboom, en al de bomen. 30Wanneer zij nu uitspruiten, en gij dat ziet, zo weet gij uit uzelven, dat de zomer nu nabij is. 31Alzo ook gij, wanneer gij deze dingen zult zien geschieden, zo weet, dat het Koninkrijk Gods nabij is. 32Voorwaar Ik zeg u, dat dit geslacht geenszins zal voorbijgaan, totdat alles zal geschied zijn. 33De hemel en de aarde zullen voorbijgaan, maar Mijn woorden zullen geenszins voorbijgaan. 34En wacht uzelven, dat uw harten niet te eniger tijd bezwaard worden met brasserij en dronkenschap, en zorgvuldigheden dezes levens, en dat u die dag niet onvoorziens over kome. 35Want gelijk een strik zal hij komen over al degenen, die op den gansen aardbodem gezeten zijn. 36Waakt dan te aller tijd, biddende, dat gij moogt waardig geacht worden te ontvlieden al deze dingen, die geschieden zullen, en te staan voor den Zoon des mensen. 37Des daags nu was Hij lerende in de tempel; maar des nachts ging Hij uit, en vernachtte op den berg, genaamd den Olijf berg. 38En al het volk kwam des morgens vroeg tot Hem in den tempel, om Hem te horen.
