28	Ἀπὸ δὲ τῆς συκῆς μάθετε τὴν παραβολήν ὅταν ἤδη ὁ κλάδος αὐτῆς ἁπαλὸς γένηται καὶ ἐκφύῃ τὰ φύλλα γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγὺς τὸ θέρος ἐστίν	“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	οὕτως καὶ ὑμεῖς ὅταν ἴδητε ταῦτα γινόμενα γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγύς ἐστιν ἐπὶ θύραις	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	ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι οὐ μὴ παρέλθῃ ἡ γενεὰ αὕτη μέχρις οὗ ταῦτα πάντα γένηται	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	ὁ οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ γῆ παρελεύσονται οἱ δὲ λόγοι μου οὐ ‹μὴ› παρελεύσονται	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	Περὶ δὲ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης ἢ τῆς ὥρας οὐδεὶς οἶδεν οὐδὲ οἱ ἄγγελοι ἐν οὐρανῷ οὐδὲ ὁ Υἱός εἰ μὴ ὁ Πατήρ	“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	Βλέπετε ἀγρυπνεῖτε οὐκ οἴδατε γὰρ πότε ὁ καιρός ἐστιν	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	Ὡς ἄνθρωπος ἀπόδημος ἀφεὶς τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ καὶ δοὺς τοῖς δούλοις αὐτοῦ τὴν ἐξουσίαν ἑκάστῳ τὸ ἔργον αὐτοῦ καὶ τῷ θυρωρῷ ἐνετείλατο ἵνα γρηγορῇ	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	γρηγορεῖτε οὖν οὐκ οἴδατε γὰρ πότε ὁ κύριος τῆς οἰκίας ἔρχεται ἢ ὀψὲ ἢ μεσονύκτιον ἢ ἀλεκτοροφωνίας ἢ πρωΐ	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	μὴ ἐλθὼν ἐξαίφνης εὕρῃ ὑμᾶς καθεύδοντας	lest he come suddenly and find you asleep.	If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping.
37	ὃ δὲ ὑμῖν λέγω πᾶσιν λέγω γρηγορεῖτε	And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.”	What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”
