Luke 21 :: Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

Luk 21:1

Luk 21:1And having looked up, he saw those who did cast their gifts to the treasury -- rich men,

Luk 21:2

Luk 21:2and he saw also a certain poor widow casting there two mites,

Luk 21:3

Luk 21:3and he said, 'Truly I say to you, that this poor widow did cast in more than all;

Luk 21:4

Luk 21:4for all these out of their superabundance did cast into the gifts to God, but this one out of her want, all the living that she had, did cast in.'

Luk 21:5

Luk 21:5And certain saying about the temple, that with goodly stones and devoted things it hath been adorned, he said,

Luk 21:6

Luk 21:6'These things that ye behold -- days will come, in which there shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.'

Luk 21:7

Luk 21:7And they questioned him, saying, 'Teacher, when, then, shall these things be? and what is the sign when these things may be about to happen?'

Luk 21:8

Luk 21:8And he said, 'See -- ye may not be led astray, for many shall come in my name, saying -- I am he, and the time hath come nigh; go not on then after them;

Luk 21:9

Luk 21:9and when ye may hear of wars and uprisings, be not terrified, for it behoveth these things to happen first, but the end is not immediately.'

Things to Come

Luk 21:10

Luk 21:10Then said he to them, 'Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom,

Luk 21:11

Luk 21:11great shakings also in every place, and famines, and pestilences, there shall be; fearful things also, and great signs from heaven there shall be;

Luk 21:12

Luk 21:12and before all these, they shall lay on you their hands, and persecute, delivering up to synagogues and prisons, being brought before kings and governors for my name's sake;

Luk 21:13

Luk 21:13and it shall become to you for a testimony.

Luk 21:14

Luk 21:14'Settle, then, to your hearts, not to meditate beforehand to reply,

Luk 21:15

Luk 21:15for I will give to you a mouth and wisdom that all your opposers shall not be able to refute or resist.

Luk 21:16

Luk 21:16'And ye shall be delivered up also by parents, and brothers, and kindred, and friends, and they shall put of you to death;

Luk 21:17

Luk 21:17and ye shall be hated by all because of my name --

Luk 21:18

Luk 21:18and a hair out of your head shall not perish;

Luk 21:19

Luk 21:19in your patience possess ye your souls.

Luk 21:20

Luk 21:20'And when ye may see Jerusalem surrounded by encampments, then know that come nigh did her desolation;

Luk 21:21

Luk 21:21then those in Judea, let them flee to the mountains; and those in her midst, let them depart out; and those in the countries, let them not come in to her;

Luk 21:22

Luk 21:22because these are days of vengeance, to fulfil all things that have been written.

Luk 21:23

Luk 21:23'And wo to those with child, and to those giving suck, in those days; for there shall be great distress on the land, and wrath on this people;

Luk 21:24

Luk 21:24and they shall fall by the mouth of the sword, and shall be led captive to all the nations, and Jerusalem shall be trodden down by nations, till the times of nations be fulfilled.

The Return of Christ

(Mat 24:29–31; Mar 13:24–27 )

Luk 21:25

Luk 21:25'And there shall be signs in sun, and moon, and stars, and on the land is distress of nations with perplexity, sea and billow roaring;

Luk 21:26

Luk 21:26men fainting at heart from fear, and expectation of the things coming on the world, for the powers of the heavens shall be shaken.

Luk 21:27

Luk 21:27'And then they shall see the Son of Man, coming in a cloud, with power and much glory;

Luk 21:28

Luk 21:28and these things beginning to happen bend yourselves back, and lift up your heads, because your redemption doth draw nigh.'

Luk 21:29

Luk 21:29And he spake a simile to them: 'See the fig-tree, and all the trees,

Luk 21:30

Luk 21:30when they may now cast forth, having seen, of yourselves ye know that now is the summer nigh;

Luk 21:31

Luk 21:31so also ye, when ye may see these things happening, ye know that near is the reign of God;

Luk 21:32

Luk 21:32verily I say to you -- This generation may not pass away till all may have come to pass;

Luk 21:33

Luk 21:33the heaven and the earth shall pass away, but my words may not pass away.

Luk 21:34

Luk 21:34'And take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts may be weighed down with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and anxieties of life, and suddenly that day may come on you,

Luk 21:35

Luk 21:35for as a snare it shall come on all those dwelling on the face of all the land,

Luk 21:36

Luk 21:36watch ye, then, in every season, praying that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that are about to come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.'

Luk 21:37

Luk 21:37And he was during the days in the temple teaching, and during the nights, going forth, he was lodging at the mount called of Olives;

Luk 21:38

Luk 21:38and all the people were coming early unto him in the temple to hear him.
