28 And from the fig tree, learn the parable: When its branch already shall have become tender, and it puts forth leaves, you⁺ know that summer is near. “From the fig tree learn its lesson: as soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near. “Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out, you know that summer is near.
29 So also you⁺, when you⁺ see these things coming to pass, know that He is near, at the doors. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that he is near, at the very gates. Even so, when you see these things happening, you know that it is near, right at the door.
30 Truly I say to you⁺ that this generation shall not have passed away until all these things shall have come to pass. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take place. Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.
31 The heaven and the earth will pass away, but My words will never pass away. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
32 But concerning that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, except the Father. “But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
33 Take heed; stay awake! For you⁺ do not know when the time is. Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come.
34 It is like a man going on a journey, having left his house and having given his servants authority, to each his work. And he commanded the doorkeeper that he should watch. It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.
35 Therefore watch, for you⁺ do not know when the master of the house comes—either at evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or morning— Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning— “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn.
36 lest, having come suddenly, he should find you⁺ sleeping. lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping.
37 And what I say to you⁺, I say to all: Watch!” And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.” What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”
