Matthew 24 (TDX)

1Aa ie nienga i Anjomban’ Añaharey t’i Iesoà, naho nañavelo mb’eo, le niharivoa’ o mpiama’eo hampisamba’ iareo aze o traño añ’anjomban’ Añahareo.As Jesus left the temple and was walking away, His disciples came up to Him to point out its buildings.

2Hoe re: Hene isa’ areo o ey hoek’eio! Eka! to t’itaroñako te fonga harotsake vaho tsy hadoñe eo ty vato raike mitongoa ami’ty raike.“Do you see all these things?” He replied. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.”

3Ie niambesatse ambohi’ Oliva am-pitalakesañe i Anjomban’ Añaharey, le natola’ i Petera, i Jaona naho i Andrea, nañontane aze ty hoe: Mbia te ho tondroke irezay? naho inoñe ty ho vilo’ te hifetsake i he’e tsaraeñey, he mbia ty hamotora’e naho mbia ty figadoña’ ty tane toiy vaho i fitotsaha’oy?While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”

4Natoi’ Iesoà ty hoe: Mitaòa tsy hampandifihe’ ondaty.Jesus answered, “See to it that no one deceives you.

5Amy te maro ty ho pok’eo ami’ty añarako hanao ty hoe: Izaho i Norizañey, hampandrifitse ty maro.For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.

6Ry koahe, Naho mahajanjiñ’ aly naho firimboñam-balobohòke, le mitaoa tsy ho dereñe, amy te tsy mahay tsy ho tondroke, fe mboe tsy ie i figadoñañey.You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.

7Hitroatse hiatreatre ty fifeheañe ty fifeheañe, naho ty fifelehañe ty fifelehañe, naho ho eo ty fivalitaboahañe jabajaba, naho san-kasalikoañe hampioje, vaho fanginiginihan-tane an-koe.Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8Fifotoram-pitsongoan’ ampela irezay.All these are the beginning of birth pains.

9Ie ho tantalieñe mb’an-tsamporeraheñe naho havetreke, hinjè’ ze kila fifeheañe ty ami’ty añarako.Then they will deliver you over to be persecuted and killed, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.

10Ho embetse ty maro, hifampikinia vaho hifampiloroloro.At that time many will fall away and will betray and hate one another,

11Hitroatse ty mpitoki-vìlañe, hampandifike ty maro,and many false prophets will arise and deceive many.

12ie mitombo ty haloloañe le hangodafotse ty fikokoa’ i màroy.Because of the multiplication of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.

13Ho rombaheñe ze mahafifeake pak’am-para’e.But the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

14Hanitsike ty tane toy ty fitaroñañe ty Talili-soa toy, ho fitaliliañe ahy amo kila fifeheañeo, izay vaho ho tondroke i figadoñañey.And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

15Zao i Norizam-Bilañey, ie i Hativàñe Mandrotsake nampisaontsieñe i Daniele, mijagarodoñe amy tsy mete ijohañañey. Mandrendreha ry mpamaky;So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by the prophet Daniel (let the reader understand),

16Ie amy zay, ry e Iehodào, miherereaha mb’am-bohitse añe.then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

17Asoao tsy hizotso handrambe raha an-traño’e ao ty an-tafo traño ey.Let no one on the housetop come down to retrieve anything from his house.

18Asoao tsy hibalike hipay ty saro’e ty an-teteke añe.And let no one in the field return for his cloak.

19Feh’ ohatse amo mivesatseo naho amo mampinonoo amy andro rezay.How miserable those days will be for pregnant and nursing mothers!

20Mihalalia aman’Añahare te tsy ho ami’ty andro Sabata ty filaisa’ areo,Pray that your flight will not occur in the winter or on the Sabbath.

21amy te ho lako fisotriañe henane zay, ze mbe tsy nitendreke boak’ am-pifotora’ ty tane toy pake henanekeo, Aiy! le tsy hahereñe ka.For at that time there will be great tribulation, unseen from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be seen again.

22Aa naho tsy nitomòreñe i andro rezay, le tsy ho nanjo nofotse ho rombaheñe, fe ty amo jinoboñeo le tsy ampeampe i andro rezay.If those days had not been cut short, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short.

23Ie henane zay, naho eo ty hanao ty hoe ama’ areo: Hehe intoy i Norizañey, ndra Indroa; ko miantoke.At that time, if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.

24Amy te hiongake o mpisare norizañeo naho o mpisare mpitokio, hanolo-tsahàtse naho hadabàñe jabajaba t’ie, naho nimete, ho nampanjike o jinoboñeo.For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive even the elect, if that were possible.

25Aa naho talilie’ iereo te, Inai-ie an-jerezere tane añe. Ko miakatse mb’eo; ndra, Inay, an-traño bangiñe ao; ko miantoke.See, I have told you in advance.

26Inao, fa nitaroñako aolo ty hifetsaha’e.So if they tell you, ‘There He is, in the wilderness,’ do not go out, or, ‘Here He is, in the inner rooms,’ do not believe it.

27Le hoe t’i Iesoà amo mpiama’eo: Manàhake ty fihirifa’ ty helatse atiñanañe añe vaho isake ahandrefañe eñe, ty hitotsaha’ i Ana’ ondatiy.For just as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

28Fa amy ze idoña’ ty lolo ty itontona’ o koàkeo.Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.

29Ie henane zay, naho tampetse ty hasilofeñe amy andro rey, le haieñe i àndroy, naho tsy homei’ i volañey ty hazavà’e; hihintsañe hirik’ andindìñe eñe o vasiañeo vaho hiezeñezeñe ty valobohò’ i likerañeio;Immediately after the tribulation of those days: ‘The sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.’

30Le hisodehañe andindìñe ey ty vilo’ i Ana’ ondatiy, naho hene hirovetse ze foko’ i taney, vaho ho isa’ iereo ty fitotsaha’ i Ana’ ondatiy amo rahon-dikerañeo mindre ami’ty valobohoke ra’elahy naho am-bintañe maharevendreveñe.At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31Hampihitrife’e ami’ty antsiva ra’elahy naho am-pazake abo o anjeli’eo, hanontoñe o jinoboñeo hirike amo tiok-efa’ i likerañey, boak’ añolon-dindiñe eñe pak’añ’ila’e ka.And He will send out His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

32Rendreho ty fandrazaña’ i sakoañey; ie isa’areo o singa’eo naho o rave’e mibotibotio, le fohi’ areo t’ie mitotokeNow learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.

33o lalam-beio.So also, when you see all these things, you will know that He is near, right at the door.

34Eka! to t’itaroñako te tsy ho modo ty sa toy, ampara’ t’ie heneke iaby.Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened.

35Hihelañe añe i likerañey naho ty tane toy.Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away.

36Mboe tsy eo ty mahaisake i àndroy ndra i oray; tsy o anjelin-dikerañeo, fa t’i Rae avao.No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

37Hoe ty tinovo’ Iesoà amo mpiama’eo: Hambañe amy faha’ i Noey, o andro’ i Ana’ ondatiio.As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.

38Manahake te tañ’ andro taolo’ i fiepoepoan-dranoy, nikama naho ninoñe iereo, namokatse naho nanaranake ampara’ i andro niziliha’ i Noe amy lakam-poloaiiy ao,For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark.

39le tsy napota’ iereo naho tsy nisorotombahe’ i fiepoepoañey ze namongotse iareo; hoe zay ty hitotsaha’ i Ana’ ondatiy.And they were oblivious until the flood came and swept them all away. So will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.

40Ie amy zay, roe lahy ty hiava an-tetek’ ey, ho rambeseñe ty raike, hapoke ty raike.Two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left.

41Ampela roe ty handisañe am-pandisanañe eo, ho rambeseñe ty raike, hadoñe ty raike.Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left.

42Le hoe t’i Iesoà amo mpiama’eo: Aa le mijilova: amy te mbe tsy nioni’ areo ty ora hihavia’ i Talè’ areoy.Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come.

43Rendreho zao t’ie nahaoniñe ty ora ho nipoteaha’ ty malaso, le ho nijilo; le tsy ho nenga’e poñafeñe i anjomba’ey.But understand this: If the homeowner had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.

44Aa le mihentseña amy te tsy fohi’ areo ty ora hitotsaha’ i Ana’ ondatiy.For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.

45Akore ty heve’areo ty amy mpitoroñe migahiñe naho mahihitse, ie nampifehe’ ty talè’e o keleia’eo, hamahana’e mahakama ami’ty fotoa’e?Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time?

46Haha ty mpitoroñe zoe’ i talè’ey manao izay ami’ty fiavi’e.Blessed is that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.

47Eka! to t’itaroñako, te hampifehe’e aze o keleia’eo.Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.

48Fa naho tsivokatse i mpitoroñey, ie mitsakore an-tro’e ao ty hoe, Miesoñe ty fiavi’ i talèkoy;But suppose that servant is wicked and says in his heart, ‘My master will be away a long time.’

49naho mamototse mandafa o mpitoro’ i talè’eo, vaho mitrao-pigenoke naho finoñe amo màhakeo,And he begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.

50le hipoteake ami’ty andro tsy itamà’e aze naho ami’ty ora mahatakèke aze i talè’ey,The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate.

51le haitoa’e naho hapo’e an-toe’ o mpamañahio ty anjara’e; fangololoihañe naho fikodrìta-nife ty ho ao.Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
