1 And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here! 2 And Jesus answering said unto him, Seest thou these great buildings? there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down. 3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, 4 Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled? 5 And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you: 6 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. 7 And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. 8 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.
9 But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them. 10 And the gospel must first be published among all nations. 11 But when they shall lead you, and deliver you up, take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak, neither do ye premeditate: but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for it is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost. 12 Now the brother shall betray the brother to death, and the father the son; and children shall rise up against their parents, and shall cause them to be put to death. 13 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name’s sake: but he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
14 But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judæa flee to the mountains: 15 And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house: 16 And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment. 17 But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days! 18 And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter. 19 For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be. 20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect’s sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days. 21 And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not: 22 For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect. 23 But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.
24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, 25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. 26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory. 27 And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven. 28 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is near: 29 So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors. 30 Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done. 31 Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
32 But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 33 Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 34 For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
1 耶稣从殿里出来的时候, 有一个门徒对他说: "老师, 请看, 这是多么美好的石头! 多么美好的建筑! "
2 耶稣对他说: "你看见这些伟大的建筑吗?将来必没有一块石头留在另一块石头上面, 每一块都要拆下来。"
3 耶稣在橄榄山上, 面对圣殿坐着, 彼得、雅各、约翰和安得烈私下问他:
4 "请告诉我们, 什么时候会有这些事呢?这一切事将要成就的时候有什么预兆呢?"
5 耶稣就告诉他们说: "你们要小心, 不要被人迷惑。
6 有许多人要来, 假冒我的名说‘我就是基督’, 并且要迷惑许多的人。
7 你们听见战争和战争的风声, 也不要惊慌, 这是免不了的, 不过, 结局还没有到。
8 一个民族要起来攻打另一个民族, 一个国家要起来攻打另一个国家, 到处要有地震, 有饥荒, 这些不过是痛苦的开始。
9 但你们要小心! 因为人要把你们交给公议会, 你们要在会堂里被鞭打, 又要为我的缘故站在总督和君王面前, 向他们作见证。
10 然而福音必须先传给万民。
11 人把你们捉去送官的时候, 用不着预先思虑要说什么, 到那时候赐给你们什么话, 你们就说什么, 因为说话的不是你们, 而是圣灵。
12 弟兄要出卖弟兄, 父亲要出卖儿子, 甚至把他们置于死地; 儿女要悖逆父母, 害死他们。
13 你们为我的名, 要被众人恨恶, 然而坚忍到底的必然得救。
14 "当你们看见‘那造成荒凉的可憎者’, 站在不该站的地方(读者必须领悟), 那时, 住在犹太的应当逃到山上;
15 在房顶的不要下来, 也不要进到屋子里拿什么东西;
16 在田里的也不要回去取衣服。
17 当那些日子, 怀孕的和乳养孩子的有祸了!
18 你们应当祈求, 不要让这些事在冬天发生。
19 因为那些日子必有灾难, 这是从 神创世的开始到现在未曾有过的, 以后也必不会再有。
20 如果不是主减少那些日子, 没有一个人可以存活; 但是为了自己的选民, 他必使那些日子减少。
21 那时, 如果有人对你们说: ‘看哪, 基督在这里! 看哪, 他在那里! ’你们不要信。
22 因为必有假基督和假先知出现, 行神迹和奇事, 如果可以的话, 连选民也要迷惑了。
23 所以你们应当小心! 我已经事先把一切都告诉你们了。
24 "当那些日子, 在那灾难以后, 太阳就变黑了, 月亮也不发光,
25 众星从天坠落, 天上的万象震动。
26 那时, 他们要看见人子, 满有能力和荣耀, 驾着云降临;
27 他要差派天使, 把他的选民从四方, 从地极直到天边, 都招聚来。
28 "你们应该从无花果树学个功课: 树枝发出嫩芽长出叶子的时候, 你们就知道夏天近了。
29 同样, 你们什么时候看见这些事发生, 就知道他已经近在门口了。
30 我实在告诉你们, 这一切都必会发生, 然后这世代才会过去。
31 天地都要过去, 但我的话决不会废去。
32 "至于那日子和时间, 没有人知道, 连天上的天使和子也不知道, 只有父知道。
33 你们要小心, 要警醒, 因为你们不知道那日期什么时候来到。
34 这就像一个人出外远行, 把责任("责任"原文作"权柄")一一地交给他的仆人, 又吩咐看门的要警醒。
35 所以你们要警醒, 因为你们不知道家主什么时候来到, 也许在黄昏, 也许在半夜, 也许在鸡叫时, 也许在清晨。
36 恐怕他忽然来到, 发现你们正在睡觉。
37 我对你们所说的话, 也是对众人说的, ‘你们要警醒’。"
