PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 Mientras salían, sus discípulos le suplicaron que los acompañara a recorrer los edificios del templo.
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.
1 Καὶ ἐξελθὼν ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἐπορεύετο ἀπὸ τοῦ ἱεροῦ· καὶ προσῆλθον οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπιδεῖξαι αὐτῷ τὰς οἰκοδομὰς τοῦ ἱεροῦ.
2 Y él les dijo: ―¿Ven esos edificios? ¡Todos serán destruidos y no quedará ni una piedra sobre otra!
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.”
2 ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· οὐ βλέπετε ταῦτα πάντα; ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ ἀφεθῇ ὧδε λίθος ἐπὶ λίθον, ὃς οὐ καταλυθήσεται.
3 Una vez sentados en las laderas del monte de los Olivos, los discípulos le preguntaron: ―¿Qué acontecimientos indicarán la cercanía de tu regreso y el fin del mundo?
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?”
3 καθημένου δὲ αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τοῦ ὄρους τῶν ἐλαιῶν προσῆλθον αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ κατ᾽ ἰδίαν λέγοντες· εἰπὲ ἡμῖν πότε ταῦτα ἔσται, καὶ τί τὸ σημεῖον τῆς σῆς παρουσίας καὶ τῆς συντελείας τοῦ αἰῶνος;
4 ―No dejen que nadie los engañe —les contestó Jesús—:
4 Jesus answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.
4 καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· βλέπετε μή τις ὑμᾶς πλανήσῃ.
5 Muchos vendrán diciendo que son el Mesías y engañarán a un gran número.
5 For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.
5 πολλοὶ γὰρ ἐλεύσονται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου λέγοντες, ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ Χριστός, καὶ πολλοὺς πλανήσουσι.
6 Cuando oigan rumores de guerras, no crean que ya estarán señalando mi retorno; habrá rumores y habrá guerra, pero todavía no será él fin.
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.
6 μελλήσετε δὲ ἀκούειν πολέμους καὶ ἀκοὰς πολέμων· ὁρᾶτε μὴ θροεῖσθε· δεῖ γὰρ πάντα γενέσθαι, ἀλλ᾽ οὔπω ἐστὶ τὸ τέλος.
7 Las naciones y los reinos de la tierra pelearán entre sí, y habrá hambrunas y terremotos en diferentes lugares.
7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.
7 ἐγερθήσεται γὰρ ἔθνος ἐπὶ ἔθνος καὶ βασιλεία ἐπὶ βασιλείαν, καὶ ἔσονται λιμοὶ καὶ λοιμοὶ καὶ σεισμοὶ κατὰ τόπους·
8 Pero esto será sólo el principio de los horrores que vendrán.
8 But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.
8 πάντα δὲ ταῦτα ἀρχὴ ὠδίνων.
9 Entonces a ustedes los torturarán, los matarán, los odiarán en todo el mundo por causa de mí,
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.
9 τότε παραδώσουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς θλῖψιν καὶ ἀποκτενοῦσιν ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἔσεσθε μισούμενοι ὑπὸ πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν διὰ τὸ ὄνομά μου.
10 y muchos de ustedes volverán a caer en pecado y traicionarán y aborrecerán a los demás.
10 Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
10 καὶ τότε σκανδαλισθήσονται πολλοὶ καὶ ἀλλήλους παραδώσουσι καὶ μισήσουσιν ἀλλήλους.
11 Muchos falsos profetas se levantarán y engañarán a muchas personas.
11 Many false prophets will arise and will lead many astray.
11 καὶ πολλοὶ ψευδοπροφῆται ἐγερθήσονται καὶ πλανήσουσι πολλούς,
12 Habrá tanto pecado y maldad, que el amor de muchos se enfriará.
12 Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.
12 καὶ διὰ τὸ πληθυνθῆναι τὴν ἀνομίαν ψυγήσεται ἡ ἀγάπη τῶν πολλῶν.
13 Pero los que se mantengan firmes hasta el fin serán salvos.
13 But he who endures to the end will be saved.
13 ὁ δὲ ὑπομείνας εἰς τέλος, οὗτος σωθήσεται.
14 Las buenas nuevas del reino serán proclamadas en todo el mundo, para que todas las naciones las oigan. Y sólo entonces vendrá el fin.
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.
14 καὶ κηρυχθήσεται τοῦτο τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τῆς βασιλείας ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ οἰκουμένῃ εἰς μαρτύριον πᾶσι τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καὶ τότε ἥξει τὸ τέλος.
15 »Por lo tanto, cuando vean que aparece en el Lugar Santo la desoladora impureza de que habla el profeta Daniel (¡preste atención el lector!),
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),
15 Ὅταν οὖν ἴδητε τὸ βδέλυγμα τῆς ἐρημώσεως τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ Δανιὴλ τοῦ προφήτου ἑστὼς ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ — ὁ ἀναγινώσκων νοείτω —
16 el que esté en Judea, que huya a los montes.
16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
16 τότε οἱ ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ φευγέτωσαν ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη,
17 El que esté en la azotea, que no baje a hacer las maletas,
17 Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out the things that are in his house.
17 ὁ ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος μὴ καταβαινέτω ἆραι τὰ ἐκ τῆς οἰκίας αὐτοῦ,
18 y el que esté en el campo, que no regrese a buscar la capa.
18 Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.
18 καὶ ὁ ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ μὴ ἐπιστρεψάτω ὀπίσω ἆραι τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ.
19 ¡Ay de las mujeres que estén encinta o que tengan niños de pecho en aquellos días!
19 But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!
19 οὐαὶ δὲ ταῖς ἐν γαστρὶ ἐχούσαις καὶ ταῖς θηλαζούσαις ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις.
20 Oren para que la huida no sea en invierno ni en el día de reposo,
20 Pray that your flight will not be in the winter nor on a Sabbath,
20 προσεύχεσθε δὲ ἵνα μὴ γένηται ἡ φυγὴ ὑμῶν χειμῶνος μηδὲ σαββάτῳ.
21 porque como la persecución que entonces se desatará no se habrá desatado ninguna en la historia, ni se desatará después.
21 for then there will be great suffering, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.
21 ἔσται γὰρ τότε θλῖψις μεγάλη, οἵα οὐ γέγονεν ἀπ᾽ ἀρχῆς κόσμου ἕως τοῦ νῦν οὐδ᾽ οὐ μὴ γένηται.
22 Si aquellos días no fueran acortados, la humanidad entera perecería; pero serán acortados por el bien de los escogidos de Dios.
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.
22 καὶ εἰ μὴ ἐκολοβώθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι ἐκεῖναι, οὐκ ἂν ἐσώθη πᾶσα σάρξ· διὰ δὲ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς κολοβωθήσονται αἱ ἡμέραι ἐκεῖναι.
23 »Si en aquellos días alguien les dice que el Mesías está en ese lugar o en el otro, o que apareció aquí o allá o en la ciudad de más allá, no lo crean.
23 “Then if any man tells you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There!’ don’t believe it.
23 τότε ἐάν τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ, ἰδοὺ ὧδε ὁ Χριστὸς ἢ ὧδε, μὴ πιστεύσητε·
24 Porque se levantarán falsos cristos y falsos profetas que realizarán milagros extraordinarios con los cuales tratarán de engañar aun a los escogidos de Dios.
24 For false christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
24 ἐγερθήσονται γὰρ ψευδόχριστοι καὶ ψευδοπροφῆται καὶ δώσουσι σημεῖα μεγάλα καὶ τέρατα, ὥστε πλανῆσαι, εἰ δυνατόν, καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτούς.
26 Si alguien les dice que el Mesías ha regresado y está en el desierto, no se les ocurra ir a verlo. Y si les dicen que está escondido en cierto lugar, no lo crean,
26 “If therefore they tell you, ‘Behold, he is in the wilderness,’ don’t go out; or ‘Behold, he is in the inner rooms,’ don’t believe it.
26 ἐὰν οὖν εἴπωσιν ὑμῖν, ἰδοὺ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἐστί, μὴ ἐξέλθητε, ἰδοὺ ἐν τοῖς ταμείοις, μὴ πιστεύσητε·
27 porque mi venida será tan visible como un relámpago que cruza el cielo de este a oeste.
27 For as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
27 ὥσπερ γὰρ ἡ ἀστραπὴ ἐξέρχεται ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν καὶ φαίνεται ἕως δυσμῶν, οὕτως ἔσται καὶ ἡ παρουσία τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου·
28 Y los buitres se juntarán donde esté el cuerpo muerto.
28 For wherever the carcass is, that is where the vultures gather together.
28 ὅπου γὰρ ἐὰν ᾖ τὸ πτῶμα, ἐκεῖ συναχθήσονται οἱ ἀετοί.
29 »Una vez que la persecución de aquellos días haya cesado, “el sol se oscurecerá, la luna no dará su luz, y las estrellas del cielo y los poderes que están sobre la tierra se conmoverán”.
29 “But immediately after the suffering 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;
29 Εὐθέως δὲ μετὰ τὴν θλῖψιν τῶν ἡμερῶν ἐκείνων ὁ ἥλιος σκοτισθήσεται καὶ ἡ σελήνη οὐ δώσει τὸ φέγγος αὐτῆς, καὶ οἱ ἀστέρες πεσοῦνται ἀπὸ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ αἱ δυνάμεις τῶν οὐρανῶν σαλευθήσονται.
30 Entonces aparecerá en el cielo la señal de mi venida, y el mundo entero se ahogará en llanto al verme llegar en las nubes del cielo con poder y gran gloria.
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.
30 καὶ τότε φανήσεται τὸ σημεῖον τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ, καὶ τότε κόψονται πᾶσαι αἱ φυλαὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ὄψονται τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐρχόμενον ἐπὶ τῶν νεφελῶν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ μετὰ δυνάμεως καὶ δόξης πολλῆς.
31 Y enviaré a los ángeles delante de mí para que, con toque de trompeta, junten a mis escogidos de todas partes del mundo.
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.
31 καὶ ἀποστελεῖ τοὺς ἀγγέλους αὐτοῦ μετὰ σάλπιγγος φωνῆς μεγάλης, καὶ ἐπισυνάξουσι τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων ἀπ᾽ ἄκρων οὐρανῶν ἕως ἄκρων αὐτῶν.
32 »Apréndanse bien la lección de la higuera. Cuando la rama está tierna y brotan las hojas, se sabe que el verano está cerca.
32 “Now from the fig tree learn this parable: When its branch has now become tender and produces its leaves, you know that the summer is near.
32 Ἀπὸ δὲ τῆς συκῆς μάθετε τὴν παραβολήν. ὅταν ἤδη ὁ κλάδος αὐτῆς γένηται ἁπαλὸς καὶ τὰ φύλλα ἐκφύῃ, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγὺς τὸ θέρος·
33 De la misma manera, cuando vean que estas cosas empiezan a suceder, sepan que mi regreso está cerca.
33 Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that he is near, even at the doors.
33 οὕτω καὶ ὑμεῖς ὅταν ἴδητε ταῦτα πάντα, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγύς ἐστιν ἐπὶ θύραις.
34 Sólo entonces terminará esta era de maldad.
34 Most certainly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things are accomplished.
34 ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ παρέλθῃ ἡ γενεὰ αὕτη ἕως ἂν πάντα ταῦτα γένηται.
35 El cielo y la tierra desaparecerán, pero mis palabras permanecerán, para siempre.
35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
35 ὁ οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ γῆ παρελεύσονται, οἱ δὲ λόγοι μου οὐ μὴ παρέλθωσι.
36 »Ahora bien, nadie, ni siquiera los ángeles, sabe el día ni la hora del fin. Sólo el Padre lo sabe.
36 “But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
36 Περὶ δὲ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης καὶ ὥρας οὐδεὶς οἶδεν, οὐδὲ οἱ ἄγγελοι τῶν οὐρανῶν, εἰ μὴ ὁ πατήρ μου μόνος.
37 Este mundo incrédulo continuará entregado a sus banquetes y fiestas de bodas hasta el día de mi venida, y le va a pasar lo mismo que a la gente que no quiso creer a Noé hasta que fue demasiado tarde y el diluvio la arrastró.
37 As the days of Noah were, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
37 ὥσπερ δὲ αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ Νῶε, οὕτως ἔσται καὶ ἡ παρουσία τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
38 Not in this translation
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,
38 ὥσπερ γὰρ ἦσαν ἐν ταῖς ἡμέραις ταῖς πρὸ τοῦ κατακλυσμοῦ τρώγοντες καὶ πίνοντες, γαμοῦντες καὶ ἐκγαμίζοντες, ἄχρι ἧς ἡμέρας εἰσῆλθε Νῶε εἰς τὴν κιβωτόν,
39 Not in this translation
39 and they didn’t know until the flood came and took them all away, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
39 καὶ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν ἕως ἦλθεν ὁ κατακλυσμὸς καὶ ἦρεν ἅπαντας, οὕτως ἔσται καὶ ἡ παρουσία τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
40 Cuando yo venga, dos hombres estarán trabajando juntos en el campo; uno será llevado y el otro dejado.
40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one will be left.
40 τότε δύο ἔσονται ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ, ὁ εἷς παραλαμβάνεται καὶ ὁ εἷς ἀφίεται·
41 Dos mujeres estarán realizando sus quehaceres hogareños; una será tomada y la otra dejada.
41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and one will be left.
41 δύο ἀλήθουσαι ἐν τῷ μυλῶνι, μία παραλαμβάνεται καὶ μία ἀφίεται.
42 Por lo tanto, deben estar listos, porque no saben cuándo vendrá el Señor.
42 Watch therefore, for you don’t know in what hour your Lord comes.
42 γρηγορεῖτε οὖν, ὅτι οὐκ οἴδατε ποίᾳ ὥρᾳ ὁ Κύριος ὑμῶν ἔρχεται.
43 De la misma manera que el padre de familia se mantiene vigilante para que los ladrones no se introduzcan en la casa,
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.
43 Ἐκεῖνο δὲ γινώσκετε ὅτι εἰ ᾔδει ὁ οἰκοδεσπότης ποίᾳ φυλακῇ ὁ κλέπτης ἔρχεται, ἐγρηγόρησεν ἂν καὶ οὐκ ἂν εἴασε διορυγῆναι τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ.
44 ustedes también deben estar vigilantes para que mi regreso no los sorprenda.
44 Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don’t expect, the Son of Man will come.
44 διὰ τοῦτο καὶ ὑμεῖς γίνεσθε ἕτοιμοι, ὅτι ᾗ ὥρᾳ οὐ δοκεῖτε ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεται.
45 ¿Son ustedes siervos sabios y fieles a quienes el Señor ha encomendado la tarea de realizar los quehaceres de su casa y proporcionar a sus hijos el alimento cotidiano?
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?
45 Τίς ἄρα ἐστὶν ὁ πιστὸς δοῦλος καὶ φρόνιμος, ὃν κατέστησεν ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ τῆς θεραπείας αὐτοῦ τοῦ διδόναι αὐτοῖς τὴν τροφὴν ἐν καιρῷ;
46 ¡Benditos serán si a mi regreso los encuentro cumpliendo fielmente con su deber!
46 Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.
46 μακάριος ὁ δοῦλος ἐκεῖνος ὃν ἐλθὼν ὁ κύριος αὐτοῦ εὑρήσει ποιοῦντα οὕτως.
47 ¡Los pondré a cargo de mis bienes!
47 Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
47 ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι ἐπὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ὑπάρχουσιν αὐτοῦ καταστήσει αὐτόν.
48 »Pero si son tan malvados que, creyendo que voy a tardar en venir,
48 But if that evil servant should say in his heart, ‘My lord is delaying his coming,’
48 ἐὰν δὲ εἴπῃ ὁ κακὸς δοῦλος ἐκεῖνος ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ, χρονίζει ὁ κύριός μου ἐλθεῖν,
49 se dedican a oprimir a sus consiervos, a andar de fiestas y a emborracharse,
49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,
49 καὶ ἄρξηται τύπτειν τοὺς συνδούλους αὐτοῦ, ἐσθίῃ δὲ καὶ πίνῃ μετὰ τῶν μεθυόντων,
50 el Señor llegará cuando menos lo esperen,
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,
50 ἥξει ὁ κύριος τοῦ δούλου ἐκείνου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ᾗ οὐ προσδοκᾷ καὶ ἐν ὥρᾳ ᾗ οὐ γινώσκει,
51 los azotará severamente y los enviará al tormento de los hipócritas. Allí será el llorar y el crujir de dientes.
51 and will cut him in pieces and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
51 καὶ διχοτομήσει αὐτόν, καὶ τὸ μέρος αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν ὑποκριτῶν θήσει· ἐκεῖ ἔσται ὁ κλαυθμὸς καὶ ὁ βρυγμὸς τῶν ὀδόντων.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
For inasmuch as He said, "Your house is left desolate," and had previously forewarned them of many grievous things; therefore the disciples having heard these things, as though marvelling at it, came unto Him, showing the beauty of the temple, and wondering, if so much beauty was to be destroyed, and materials so costly, and variety of workmanship past utterance; …
