¹ Jahve reče Mojsiju:

² "Ovako kaži Izraelcima: 'Ako se tko nehotice ogriješi o bilo koju Jahvinu zapovijed te učini što je zabranjeno činiti:

³ Bude li to pomazanjem posvećeni svećenik koji pogriješi i navuče tako krivnju na narod, onda za grijeh koji učini neka prinese Jahvi jedno grlo krupne stoke, jednoga junca bez mane, kao žrtvu okajnicu.

⁴ Neka junca dovede pred Jahvu do ulaza u Šator sastanka; neka juncu na glavu položi svoju ruku i onda junca zakolje pred Jahvom.

⁵ Zatim neka pomazanjem posvećeni svećenik uzme krvi od junca i donese je u Šator sastanka.

⁶ Onda neka svećenik zamoči svoj prst u krv i tom krvlju neka sedam puta poškropi prednju stranu zavjese Svetišta, pred Jahvom.

⁷ Potom neka svećenik stavi te krvi na rogove žrtvenika za miomirisni kad koji se dimi pred Jahvom u Šatoru sastanka. Svu ostalu krv od junca neka izlije podno žrtvenika za žrtve paljenice što se nalazi na ulazu u Šator sastanka.

⁸ Iz junca što ga prinosi kao žrtvu okajnicu neka izvadi: loj što omotava drobinu, sav loj što je oko drobine;

⁹ oba bubrega i loj što je na njima i na slabinama, privjesak s jetre; neka i njega izvadi s bubrezima;

¹⁰ onako kako se uzima dio iz vola žrtve pričesnice. Neka ih zatim svećenik sažeže u kad na žrtveniku za žrtve paljenice.

¹¹ Kožu od junca, sve meso od njega, njegovu glavu, njegove noge, drobinu i njegovu nečist

¹² - svega junca - neka iznese na čisto mjesto izvan tabora gdje se pepeo izasiplje i neka ga spali na vatri od drva; tu na pepelu neka se junac spali.'"

¹³ "Ako sva izraelska zajednica nehotično pogriješi počinivši štogod što je Jahve zabranio pa tako postanu krivi a ne budu svjesni krivnje,

¹⁴ onda, kad se sazna za učinjeni prijestup, neka zajednica prinese jedno grlo krupne stoke - jednoga junca bez mane - kao žrtvu okajnicu. Neka ga dovedu pred Šator sastanka.

¹⁵ Tu pred Jahvom neka starješine zajednice polože svoje ruke juncu na glavu. Neka se onda junac zakolje pred Jahvom.

¹⁶ Neka zatim pomazanjem posvećeni svećenik donese krvi od junca u Šator sastanka;

¹⁷ neka svećenik zamoči svoj prst u krv i sedam puta poškropi prednju stranu zavjese, pred Jahvom.

¹⁸ Neka zatim stavi krvi na rogove žrtvenika koji se nalazi pred Jahvom u Šatoru sastanka. Svu ostalu krv neka izlije podno žrtvenika za žrtve paljenice što se nalazi na ulazu u Šator sastanka.

¹⁹ S junca neka skine sav loj i sažeže ga u kad na žrtveniku.

²⁰ I s juncem neka uradi kako je uradio s onim juncem žrtve okajnice - tako neka učini i s tim. I pošto svećenik nad članovima zajednice izvrši obred pomirenja, bit će im oprošteno.

²¹ Neka odnese junca izvan tabora i spali ga kako je spalio i prvoga junca. To je žtrva za prijestup zajednice."

²² "Ako nehotično pogriješi glavar i učini štogod što je Jahve, Bog njegov, zabranio i tako sagriješi,

²³ onda, kad ga obznane o prijestupu koji je počinio, neka kao svoj prinos donese muško jare bez mane.

²⁴ Položivši svoju ruku jaretu na glavu, neka ga zakolje na mjestu gdje se kolju pred Jahvom žrtve paljenice. To je žrtva okajnica.

²⁵ Svećenik neka uzme na svome prstu krvi od žrtve okajnice pa je stavi na rogove žrtvenika za žrtve paljenice. A svu ostalu krv neka izlije podno žrtvenika za žrtve paljenice.

²⁶ Sav loj neka sažeže u kad na žrtveniku kao i loj sa žrtve pričesnice. Neka tako svećenik nad glavarom izvrši obred pomirenja za njegov grijeh, pa će mu biti oprošteno."

²⁷ "Ako tko od običnoga puka nehotično pogriješi učinivši štogod što je Jahve zabranio i tako sagriješi,

²⁸ onda, kad ga obznane o prijestupu koji je počinio, neka kao svoj prinos za grijeh koji je počinio donese žensko jare bez mane.

²⁹ Neka stavi svoju ruku na glavu okajnice i zakolje žrtvu okajnicu na mjestu za žrtve paljenice.

³⁰ Neka svećenik uzme krvi na svome prstu pa je stavi na rogove žrtvenika za žrtve paljenice. A svu ostalu krv neka izlije podno žrtvenika.

³¹ Neka zatim izvadi sav njezin loj kao što se vadi loj iz žrtve pričesnice; neka ga onda svećenik sažeže u kad na žrtveniku kao ugodan miris Jahvi. Kad svećenik izvrši nad tim čovjekom obred pomirenja, bit će mu oprošteno.

³² Ako bi tko htio dovesti janje kao žrtvu okajnicu, neka dovede žensko bez mane.

³³ Položivši svoju ruku na glavu žrtve okajnice, neka je zakolje kao žrtvu okajnicu na mjestu gdje se kolju žrtve paljenice.

³⁴ Neka onda svećenik uzme krvi od žrtve okajnice na svome prstu pa je stavi na rogove žrtvenika za žrtve paljenice. A svu ostalu krv neka izlije podno žrtvenika.

³⁵ Neka zatim izvadi sav njezin loj kao što se vadi loj iz žrtve pričesnice. Neka to svećenik sažeže u kad povrh žrtava paljenih Jahvi u čast. Neka tako svećenik izvrši nad tim čovjekom obred pomirenja za grijeh koji je počinio, pa će mu biti oprošteno."

¹ Jesus went out from the temple, and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.

² But he answered them, "You see all of these things, don't you? Most certainly I tell you, there will not be left here one stone on another, that will not be thrown down."

³ As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? What is the sign of your coming, and of the end of the age?"

⁴ Jesus answered them, "Be careful that no one leads you astray.

⁵ For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will lead many astray.

⁶ You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren't troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.

⁷ For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.

⁸ But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.

⁹ Then they will deliver you up to oppression, and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name's sake.

¹⁰ Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.

¹¹ Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray.

¹² Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.

¹³ But he who endures to the end, the same will be saved.

¹⁴ This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

¹⁵ "When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand),

¹⁶ then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

¹⁷ Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out things that are in his house.

¹⁸ Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.

¹⁹ But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!

²⁰ Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a Sabbath,

²¹ for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.

²² Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would have been saved. But for the sake of the chosen ones, those days will be shortened.

²³ "Then if any man tells you, 'Behold, here is the Christ,' or, 'There,' don't believe it.

²⁴ For there will arise false christs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.

²⁵ "Behold, I have told you beforehand.

²⁶ If therefore they tell you, 'Behold, he is in the wilderness,' don't go out; 'Behold, he is in the inner rooms,' don't believe it.

²⁷ For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

²⁸ For wherever the carcass is, there is where the vultures gather together.

²⁹ But immediately after the oppression of those days, the sun will be darkened, the moon will not give its light, the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken;

³⁰ and then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky. Then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory.

³¹ He will send out his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

³² "Now from the fig tree learn this parable. When its branch has now become tender, and puts forth its leaves, you know that the summer is near.

³³ Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

³⁴ Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away, until all these things are accomplished.

³⁵ Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.

³⁶ But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

³⁷ "As the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

³⁸ For as in those days which were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ship,

³⁹ and they didn't know until the flood came, and took them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

⁴⁰ Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one will be left;

⁴¹ two women grinding at the mill, one will be taken and one will be left.

⁴² Watch therefore, for you don't know in what hour your Lord comes.

⁴³ But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have watched, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

⁴⁴ Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don't expect, the Son of Man will come.

⁴⁵ "Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?

⁴⁶ Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.

⁴⁷ Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.

⁴⁸ But if that evil servant should say in his heart, 'My lord is delaying his coming,'

⁴⁹ and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,

⁵⁰ the lord of that servant will come in a day when he doesn't expect it, and in an hour when he doesn't know it,

⁵¹ and will cut him in pieces, and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. There is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
