Luke, Chapter 21 Ancient Greek
1. Ἀναβλέψας δὲ
εἶδε τοὺς
βάλλοντας τὰ
δῶρα αὐτῶν εἰς
τὸ
γαζοφυλάκιον
πλουσίους·
2. εἶδε δέ τινα
χήραν
πενιχρὰν
βάλλουσαν
ἐκεῖ δύο λεπτά,
3. καὶ εἶπεν·
ἀληθῶς λέγω
ὑμῖν ὅτι ἡ χήρα
ἡ πτωχὴ αὕτη
πλεῖον πάντων
ἔβαλεν·
4. ἅπαντες γὰρ
οὗτοι ἐκ τοῦ
περισσεύοντος
αὐτοῖς ἔβαλον
εἰς τὰ δῶρα τοῦ
Θεοῦ, αὕτη δὲ
ἐκ τοῦ
ὑστερήματος
αὐτῆς ἅπαντα
τὸν βίον ὃν εἶχεν
ἔβαλε.
5. Καί τινων
λεγόντων περὶ
τοῦ ἱεροῦ ὅτι
λίθοις καλοῖς
καὶ ἀναθήμασι
κεκόσμηται,
εἶπε·
6. ταῦτα ἃ
θεωρεῖτε,
ἐλεύσονται
ἡμέραι ἐν αἷς
οὐκ ἀφεθήσεται
λίθος ἐπὶ λίθῳ
ὃς οὐ
καταλυθήσεται.
7. Ἐπηρώτησαν
δὲ αὐτὸν
λέγοντες·
διδάσκαλε,
πότε οὖν ταῦτα
ἔσται, καὶ τί τὸ
σημεῖον ὅταν
μέλλῃ ταῦτα
γίνεσθαι;
8. ὁ δὲ εἶπε·
βλέπετε μὴ
πλανηθῆτε·
πολλοὶ γὰρ
ἐλεύσονται
ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί
μου λέγοντες
ὅτι ἐγώ εἰμι καὶ
ὁ καιρὸς
ἤγγικε. μὴ οὖν
πορευθῆτε
ὀπίσω αὐτῶν.
9. ὅταν δὲ
ἀκούσητε
πολέμους καὶ
ἀκαταστασίας,
μὴ πτοηθῆτε·
δεῖ γὰρ ταῦτα
γενέσθαι
πρῶτον, ἀλλ' οὐκ
εὐθέως τὸ
τέλος.
10. τότε ἔλεγεν
αὐτοῖς·
ἐγερθήσεται
ἔθνος ἐπὶ ἔθνος
καὶ βασιλεία
ἐπὶ βασιλείαν,
11. σεισμοί τε μεγάλοι
κατὰ τόπους
καὶ λιμοὶ καὶ
λοιμοὶ
ἔσονται,
φόβητρά τε καὶ
σημεῖα ἀπ'
οὐρανοῦ
μεγάλα ἔσται.
12. πρὸ δὲ
τούτων πάντων
ἐπιβαλοῦσιν
ἐφ' ὑμᾶς τὰς χεῖρας
αὐτῶν καὶ
διώξουσι,
παραδιδόντες
εἰς συναγωγὰς
καὶ φυλακάς,
ἀγομένους ἐπὶ
βασιλεῖς καὶ ἡγεμόνας
ἕνεκεν τοῦ
ὀνόματός μου·
13. ἀποβήσεται
δὲ ὑμῖν εἰς
μαρτύριον.
14. θέσθε οὖν
εἰς τὰς
καρδίας ὑμῶν
μὴ προμελετᾶν
ἀπολογηθῆναι·
15. ἐγὼ γὰρ δώσω
ὑμῖν στόμα καὶ
σοφίαν, ᾗ οὐ
δυνήσονται
ἀντειπεῖν
οὐδὲ
ἀντιστῆναι
πάντες οἱ
ἀντικείμενοι
ὑμῖν.
16.
παραδοθήσεσθε
δὲ καὶ ὑπὸ
γονέων καὶ
συγγενῶν καὶ
φίλων καὶ
ἀδελφῶν, καὶ
θανατώσουσιν
ἐξ ὑμῶν,
17. καὶ ἔσεσθε
μισούμενοι
ὑπὸ πάντων διὰ
τὸ ὄνομά μου·
18. καὶ θρὶξ ἐκ
τῆς κεφαλῆς
ὑμῶν οὐ μὴ
ἀπόληται·
19. ἐν τῇ
ὑπομονῇ ὑμῶν
κτήσασθε τὰς
ψυχὰς ὑμῶν.
20. Ὅταν δὲ
ἴδητε
κυκλουμένην ὑπὸ
στρατοπέδων
τὴν
Ἱερουσαλήμ,
τότε γνῶτε ὅτι
ἤγγικεν ἡ
ἐρήμωσις
αὐτῆς.
21. τότε οἱ ἐν τῇ
Ἰουδαίᾳ
φευγέτωσαν
εἰς τὰ ὄρη, καὶ οἱ
ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς
ἐκχωρείτωσαν,
καὶ οἱ ἐν ταῖς
χώραις μὴ
εἰσερχέσθωσαν
εἰς αὐτήν,
22. ὅτι ἡμέραι
ἐκδικήσεως
αὗταί εἰσι τοῦ
πληρωθῆναι
πάντα τὰ
γεγραμμένα.
23. οὐαὶ δὲ ταῖς
ἐν γαστρὶ
ἐχούσαις καὶ
ταῖς θηλαζούσαις
ἐν ἐκείναις
ταῖς ἡμέραις·
ἔσται γὰρ τότε ἀνάγκη
μεγάλη ἐπὶ τῆς
γῆς καὶ ὀργὴ
τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ,
24. καὶ
πεσοῦνται
στόματι
μαχαίρας, καὶ
αἰχμαλωτισθήσονται
εἰς πάντα τὰ
ἔθνη, καὶ Ἱερουσαλὴμ
ἔσται
πατουμένη ὑπὸ
ἐθνῶν ἄχρι
πληρωθῶσι
καιροὶ ἐθνῶν.
25. Καὶ ἔσται
σημεῖα ἐν ἡλίῳ
καὶ σελήνῃ καὶ
ἄστροις, καὶ
ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς
συνοχὴ ἐθνῶν
ἐν ἀπορίᾳ
ἠχούσης
θαλάσσης καὶ
σάλου,
26. ἀποψυχόντων
ἀνθρώπων ἀπὸ
φόβου καὶ
προσδοκίας
τῶν
ἐπερχομένων
τῇ οἰκουμένῃ·
αἱ γὰρ
δυνάμεις τῶν
οὐρανῶν
σαλευθήσονται.
27. καὶ τότε
ὄψονται τὸν
υἱὸν τοῦ
ἀνθρώπου
ἐρχόμενον ἐν
νεφέλῃ μετὰ
δυνάμεως καὶ
δόξης πολλῆς.
28. ἀρχομένων
δὲ τούτων
γίνεσθαι
ἀνακύψατε καὶ
ἐπάρατε τὰς
κεφαλὰς ὑμῶν,
διότι ἐγγίζει
ἡ ἀπολύτρωσις
ὑμῶν.
29. Καὶ εἶπε
παραβολὴν
αὐτοῖς· ἴδετε
τὴν συκῆν καὶ πάντα
τὰ δένδρα.
30. ὅταν
προβάλωσιν
ἤδη, βλέποντες
ἀφ' ἑαυτῶν
γινώσκετε ὅτι
ἤδη ἐγγὺς τὸ
θέρος ἐστίν.
31. οὕτω καὶ
ὑμεῖς, ὅταν
ἴδητε ταῦτα
γινόμενα,
γινώσκετε ὅτι
ἐγγύς ἐστιν ἡ
βασιλεία τοῦ
Θεοῦ.
32. ἀμὴν λέγω
ὑμῖν ὅτι οὐ μὴ
παρέλθῃ ἡ
γενεὰ αὕτη ἕως
ἂν πάντα
γένηται.
33. ὁ οὐρανὸς
καὶ ἡ γῆ
παρελεύσονται,
οἱ δὲ λόγοι μου
οὐ μὴ
παρέλθωσι.
34. Προσέχετε δὲ
ἑαυτοῖς
μήποτε
βαρηθῶσιν
ὑμῶν αἱ καρδίαι
ἐν κραιπάλῃ
καὶ μέθῃ καὶ
μερίμναις βιωτικαῖς,
καὶ αἰφνίδιος
ἐφ' ὑμᾶς
ἐπιστῇ ἡ ἡμέρα
ἐκείνη·
35. ὡς παγὶς γὰρ
ἐπελεύσεται
ἐπὶ πάντας
τοὺς καθημένους
ἐπὶ πρόσωπον
πάσης τῆς γῆς.
36. ἀγρυπνεῖτε
οὖν ἐν παντὶ
καιρῷ
δεόμενοι ἵνα
καταξιωθῆτε
ἐκφυγεῖν
πάντα τὰ
μέλλοντα
γίνεσθαι καὶ
σταθῆναι
ἔμπροσθεν τοῦ
υἱοῦ τοῦ
ἀνθρώπου.
37. Ἦν δὲ τὰς
ἡμέρας ἐν τῷ
ἱερῷ διδάσκων,
τὰς δὲ νύκτας
ἐξερχόμενος
ηὐλίζετο εἰς
τὸ ὄρος τὸ
καλούμενον
ἐλαιῶν·
38. καὶ πᾶς ὁ
λαὸς ὤρθριζε
πρὸς αὐτὸν ἐν
τῷ ἱερῷ ἀκούειν
αὐτοῦ.
Luke, Chapter 21 (KJV)
1. And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting
their gifts into the treasury.
2. And he saw also a certain poor widow casting
in thither two mites.
3. And he said, Of a truth
I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
4.
For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God:
but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
5. And as some spake of the temple, how it was
adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,
6. As for these things which ye behold,
the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon
another, that shall not be thrown down.
7. And they asked him, saying, Master, but when
shall these things be? and what sign will there be when these things shall
come to pass?
8. And he said, Take heed
that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ
; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
9.
But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these
things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.
10. Then said he unto them, Nation
shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
11.
And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences;
and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
12.
But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute
you , delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought
before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
13.
And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
14.
Settle it therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall
answer:
15.
For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall
not be able to gainsay nor resist.
16.
And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks,
and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
17.
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.
18.
But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
19.
In your patience possess ye your souls.
20.
And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the
desolation thereof is nigh.
21.
Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which
are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries
enter thereinto.
22.
For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may
be fulfilled.
23.
But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those
days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this
people.
24.
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive
into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles,
until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
25.
And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars;
and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the
waves roaring;
26.
Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things
which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
27.
And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and
great glory.
28.
And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up
your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
29. And he spake to them a parable; Behold
the fig tree, and all the trees;
30.
When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer
is now nigh at hand.
31.
So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the
kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
32.
Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be
fulfilled.
33.
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
34.
And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged
with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day
come upon you unawares.
35.
For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the
whole earth.
36.
Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to
escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the
Son of man.
37. And in the day time he was teaching in the
temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called
the mount of Olives.
38. And all the people came early in the morning
to him in the temple, for to hear him.
