1Pea ʻi heʻene ʻalu mei he falelotu lahi, naʻe pehē ʻene ākonga ʻe toko kiate ia, “ʻEiki, vakai ki hono anga ʻoe ngaahi maka mo e ngaahi fale!”
1And as he was going out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him: Master, behold what manner of stones and what buildings are here.
2Pea lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “ʻOku ke mamata ki he ngaahi fale lahi ni? ʻE ʻikai ha maka kuo fokotuʻu ki ha maka ʻe tuku, ka ʻe laku kotoa pē ki lalo.”
2And Jesus answering, said to him: Seest thou all these great buildings? There shall not be left a stone upon a stone, that shall not be thrown down.
3Pea ʻi heʻene nofo ʻi he moʻunga ʻoe ʻOlive, ʻo hangatonu ki he falelotu lahi, naʻe fehuʻi fakafufū kiate ia ʻa Pita mo Semisi mo Sione mo ʻAnitelū, ʻo pehē!
3And as he sat on the mount of Olivet over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him apart:
4“Fakahā kiate kimautolu, ʻe hoko afe ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni? Pea ko e hā ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻoka fakamoʻoni ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē?”
4Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall begin to be fulfilled?
5Pea fua lea ʻa Sisu, ʻo pehēange kiate kinautolu, “Vakai telia naʻa kākaaʻi ʻakimoutolu ʻe ha taha.
5And Jesus answering, began to say to them, Take heed lest any man deceive you.
6Koeʻuhi ʻe haʻu ʻae tokolahi ʻi hoku huafa, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko au ia;’ pea te nau kākaaʻi ʻae tokolahi.
6For many shall come in my name, saying, I am he; and they shall deceive many.
7Pea ka mou ka fanongo ki he ngaahi tau mo e ongoongo ʻoe tau, ʻoua te mou manavahē: koeʻuhi kuo pau ke hoko ia; kae teʻeki hoko ʻae ikuʻanga.
7And when you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, fear ye not. For such things must needs be, but the end is not yet.
8Koeʻuhi ʻe tuʻu hake ʻae kakai ki he kakai, mo e puleʻanga ki he puleʻanga; pea ʻe ai ʻae mofuike ʻi he ngaahi potu kehekehe, pea ʻe ai ʻae ngaahi honge mo e ngaahi fakamamahi: ko e kamataʻanga eni ʻoe ngaahi mamahi.
8For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and famines. These things are the beginning of sorrows.
9“Ka mou vakai kiate kimoutolu: he te nau tukuange ʻakimoutolu ki he kau fakamaau; pea ʻe haha ʻakimoutolu ʻi he ngaahi falelotu; pea ʻe ʻomi ʻakimoutolu ki he ʻao ʻoe ngaahi pule mo e ngaahi tuʻi koeʻuhi ko au, ko e fakamoʻoni kiate kinautolu.
9But look to yourselves. For they shall deliver you up to councils, and in the synagogues you shall be beaten, and you shall stand before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony unto them.
10Ka ʻe tomuʻa malangaʻaki ʻae ongoongolelei ki he ngaahi puleʻanga kotoa pē.
10And unto all nations the gospel must first be preached.
11Pea ka nau ka taki mo tukuange ʻakimoutolu, ʻoua naʻa mou tomuʻa fifili, pe fakakaukau ki he meʻa te mou lea ʻaki: ka ko ia ʻe foaki kiate kimoutolu ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ko ia, ko ia pe te mou lea ʻaki: he ʻoku ʻikai ko kimoutolu ʻoku lea, ka ko e Laumālie Māʻoniʻoni.
11And when they shall lead you and deliver you up, be not thoughtful beforehand what you shall speak; but whatsoever shall be given you in that hour, that speak ye. For it is not you that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
12Pea ʻe lavakiʻi ʻe he tokotaha ʻa hono tokoua ke mate, mo e tamai ʻae foha; pea ʻe tuʻu hake ʻae fānau ki he mātuʻa, mo pule ke tāmateʻi ʻakinautolu.
12And the brother shall betray his brother unto death, and the father his son; and children shall rise up against the parents, and shall work their death.
13Pea ʻe fehiʻanekina ʻakimoutolu ʻi he kakai fulipē koeʻuhi ko hoku huafa: ka ko ia ʻe kātaki ʻo aʻu ki he ikuʻanga, ko ia ia ʻe moʻui.
13And you shall be hated by all men for my name’s sake. But he that shall endure unto the end, he shall be saved.
14¶ “Ka ʻoka mou ka mamata ki he ‘fakalielia ʻoe fakaʻauha,’ naʻe lea ki ai ʻa Taniela ko e palōfita, ʻoku tuʻu ʻi he potu ʻoku ʻikai lelei ke tuʻu ai ,” (ko ia ʻoku lau ke tokanga,) “Pea ʻilonga ai ʻakinautolu ʻoku ʻi Siutea, ke nau feholaki ki he ngaahi moʻunga:
14And when you shall see the abomination of desolation, standing where it ought not: he that readeth let him understand: then let them that are in Judea, flee unto the mountains:

15And let him that is on the housetop, not go down into the house, nor enter therein to take any thing out of the house:
16Pea ko ia ʻoku ʻi he ngoue, ke ʻoua naʻa foki ia ki mui ke toʻo mai hono kofu.
16And let him that shall be in the field, not turn back to take up his garment.
17Ka ʻe malaʻia ʻakinautolu ʻoku feitama, pea mo kinautolu ʻoku toutama, ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia!
17And woe to them that are with child, and that give suck in those days.
18Pea mou lotu ke ʻoua naʻa hoko hoʻomou hola ʻi he faʻahitaʻu momoko.
18But pray ye, that these things happen not in winter.
19He koeʻuhi ʻe ai ha mamahi ʻi he ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, ʻaia naʻe ʻikai hano tatau talu hono kamataʻanga ʻo māmani, ʻaia naʻe fakatupu ʻe he ʻOtua, ʻo aʻu ki heni, pea ʻe ʻikai toe pehē.
19For in those days shall be such tribulations, as were not from the beginning of the creation which God created until now, neither shall be.
20Pea ka ne taʻeʻoua ʻae fakasiʻisiʻi ʻe he ʻEiki ʻae ngaahi ʻaho ko ia, pehē, ʻe ʻikai ha taha ʻe moʻui: ka koeʻuhi ko e kakai fili, ʻaia kuo fili ʻe ia, kuo ne fakasiʻisiʻi ai ʻae ngaahi ʻaho.
20And unless the Lord had shortened the days, no flesh should be saved: but for the sake of the elect which he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days.
21“Pea ka toki pehē ai ʻe ha taha kiate kimoutolu, ‘Vakai, ko eni ʻa Kalaisi;’ pe, ‘Vakai, ʻoku ʻi hena ia ;’ ʻoua ʻe tui ki ia :
21And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; lo, he is here: do not believe.
22He koeʻuhi ʻe tupu ʻae ngaahi Kalaisi loi mo e kau palōfita loi, ʻonau fakahā ʻae ngaahi fakaʻilonga mo e ngaahi meʻa fakaofo, ke kākā ʻaki ʻae kakai kuo fili ʻo ka ne faingofua.
22For there will rise up false Christs and false prophets, and they shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce (if it were possible) even the elect.
23Kae tokanga ʻakimoutolu: vakai, ku ou tomuʻa fakahā ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē kiate kimoutolu.
23Take you heed therefore; behold I have foretold you all things.

25And the stars of heaven shall be falling down, and the powers that are in heaven, shall be moved.
26Pea te nau toki mamata ki he Foha ʻoe tangata ʻoku haʻu ʻi he ngaahi ʻao, mo e mālohi lahi mo e nāunau.
26And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds, with great power and glory.
27Pea ʻe toki fekau ʻe ia ʻa ʻene kau ʻāngelo, pea tānaki fakataha ʻa ʻene kakai fili mei he feituʻu langi ʻe fā, mei he ngataʻanga ʻoe fonua ʻo aʻu ki he ngataʻanga ʻae langi.
27And 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“Ko eni, mou ʻilo ʻae fakaʻilonga ʻi he ʻakau ko e fiki; ʻOka kei litolito hono vaʻa, pea tupu hono lau, ʻoku mou ʻilo ʻoku ofi ʻae faʻahitaʻu mafana:
28Now of the fig tree learn ye a parable. When the branch thereof is now tender, and the leaves are come forth, you know that summer is very near.
29Ke pehē foki ʻakimoutolu, ʻoka mou ka mamata ki hono hoko ʻoe ngaahi meʻa ni, mou ʻilo ʻoku ofi ia, ʻio, ʻi he matapā.
29So you also when you shall see these things come to pass, know ye that it is very nigh, even at the doors.
30Ko e moʻoni ʻoku ou tala atu kiate kimoutolu, ʻe ʻikai mole ʻae toʻutangata ni, kaeʻoua ke fai ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē.
30Amen I say to you, that this generation shall not pass, until all these things be done.
31ʻE mole ʻae langi mo e fonua: ka ko ʻeku ngaahi lea ʻe ʻikai mole.
31Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away.
32¶ “Ka ko e ʻaho ko ia mo hono feituʻulaʻā, ʻoku ʻikai ha taha ʻoku ne ʻilo ki ai, ʻe ʻikai, pe ko e kau ʻāngelo ʻoku ʻi he langi, pe ko e Foha, ka ko e Tamai.
32But of that day or hour no man knoweth, neither the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but the Father.
33Mou vakai, leʻo pea lotu: he ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo pe hoko ʻafē ʻae ʻaho ko ia.
33Take ye heed, watch and pray. For ye know not when the time is.
34ʻOka fononga ha tangata, ʻoku ne tuku hono ʻapi ke tauhi ʻe heʻene kau tamaioʻeiki, pea ne vahe ʻae ngāue kiate kinautolu taki taha, pea fekau ki he tauhi matapā ke leʻo.
34Even as a man who going into a far country, left his house; and gave authority to his servants over every work, and commanded the porter to watch.
35Ko ia mou leʻo: he ʻoku ʻikai te mou ʻilo pe haʻu fakakū ʻae ʻeiki ʻoe fale, ʻi he efiafi, pe ʻi he tuʻuapō, pe ʻi he ʻuʻua ʻae moa, pe ʻi he pongipongi;
35Watch ye therefore, (for you know not when the lord of the house cometh: at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning,)
36Telia naʻa haʻu fakafokifā pe ia, ʻo ne ʻilo ʻakimoutolu ʻoku mou mohe.
36Lest coming on a sudden, he find you sleeping.
37Pea ko ia ʻoku ou tala kiate kimoutolu, ʻoku ou tala ki he kakai kotoa pē, Leʻo.”
37And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch.
