[HNV] The Good News According to Matthew 24, World English Bible: Messianic Edition
arch...@jab.org
The Good News According to Matthew, Chapter 24
{24:1} Yeshua went out from the temple, and was going on his way.
His disciples came to him to show him the buildings of the temple.
{24:2} 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.
{24:3} 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?
{24:4} Yeshua answered them, Be careful that no one leads you
astray. {24:5} For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the
Messiah,' and will lead many astray. {24:6} 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. {24:7} For nation will rise against
nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines,
plagues, and earthquakes in various places. {24:8} But all these
things are the beginning of birth pains. {24:9} 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. {24:10} Then many will stumble, and
will deliver up one another, and will hate one another. {24:11} Many
false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray. {24:12} Because
iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold. {24:13}
But he who endures to the end, the same will be saved. {24:14} 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.
{24:15} When, therefore, you see the abomination of desolation,[1]
which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy
place (let the reader understand), {24:16} then let those who are in
Judea flee to the mountains. {24:17} Let him who is on the housetop
not go down to take out things that are in his house. {24:18} Let him
who is in the field not return back to get his clothes. {24:19} But
woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!
{24:20} Pray that your flight will not be in the winter, nor on a
Sabbath, {24:21} 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. {24:22} 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.
{24:23} Then if any man tells you, 'Behold, here is the Messiah,'
or, 'There,' don't believe it. {24:24} For there will arise false
messiahs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and
wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.
{24:25} Behold, I have told you beforehand. {24:26} 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. {24:27} 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. {24:28} For wherever the carcass
is, there is where the [2]vultures[2] gather together. {24:29} 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;[3] {24:30} 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. {24:31} He
will send out his angels with a great sound of a [4]shofar[4], and
they will gather together his chosen ones from the four winds, from
one end of the sky to the other.
{24:32} 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. {24:33} Even so you also, when you see all these
things, know that it is near, even at the doors. {24:34} Most
certainly I tell you, this [5]generation[5] will not pass away,
until all these things are accomplished. {24:35} Heaven and earth will
pass away, but my words will not pass away. {24:36} But no one knows
of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven,[6] but my Father
only.
{24:37} As the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son
of Man. {24:38} 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, {24:39} and they didn't know
until the flood came, and took them all away, so will be the coming of
the Son of Man. {24:40} Then two men will be in the field: one will be
taken and one will be left; {24:41} two women grinding at the mill,
one will be taken and one will be left. {24:42} Watch therefore, for
you don't know in what hour your Lord comes. {24:43} But know this,
that if the master of the house had
[HNV] Isaiah 16, World English Bible: Messianic Edition
arch...@jab.org
Isaiah, starting at chapter 16
{16:1} Send the lambs for the ruler of the land from Selah to the
wilderness, to the mountain of the daughter of Zion. {16:2} For it
will be that as wandering birds, as a scattered nest, so will the
daughters of Moab be at the fords of the Arnon. {16:3} Give counsel!
Execute justice! Make your shade like the night in the midst of the
noonday! Hide the outcasts! Don't betray the fugitive! {16:4} Let my
outcasts dwell with you! As for Moab, be a hiding place for him from
the face of the destroyer. For the extortioner is brought to nothing.
Destruction ceases. The oppressors are consumed out of the land.
{16:5} A throne will be established in loving kindness. One will sit
on it in truth, in the tent of David, judging, seeking justice, and
swift to do righteousness.
{16:6} We have heard of the pride of Moab, that he is very proud;
even of his arrogance, his pride, and his wrath. His boastings are
nothing. {16:7} Therefore Moab will wail for Moab. Everyone will wail.
You will mourn for the raisin cakes of Kir Hareseth, utterly stricken.
{16:8} For the fields of Heshbon languish with the vine of Sibmah. The
lords of the nations have broken down its choice branches, which
reached even to Jazer, which wandered into the wilderness. Its shoots
were spread abroad. They passed over the sea. {16:9} Therefore I will
weep with the weeping of Jazer for the vine of Sibmah. I will water
you with my tears, Heshbon, and Elealeh: for on your summer fruits and
on your harvest the battle shout has fallen. {16:10} Gladness is taken
away, and joy out of the fruitful field; and in the vineyards there
will be no singing, neither joyful noise. Nobody will tread out wine
in the presses. I have made the shouting stop. {16:11} Therefore my
heart sounds like a harp for Moab, and my inward parts for Kir Heres.
{16:12} It will happen that when Moab presents himself, when he
wearies himself on the high place, and comes to his sanctuary to pray,
that he will not prevail. {16:13} This is the word that the LORD spoke
concerning Moab in time past. {16:14} But now the LORD has spoken,
saying, Within three years, as a worker bound by contract would count
them, the glory of Moab shall be brought into contempt, with all his
great multitude; and the remnant will be very small and feeble.
{17:1} The burden of Damascus: Behold, Damascus is taken away from
being a city, and it will be a ruinous heap. {17:2} The cities of
Aroer are forsaken. They will be for flocks, which shall lie down, and
none shall make them afraid. {17:3} The fortress shall cease from
Ephraim, and the kingdom from Damascus, and the remnant of Syria. They
will be as the glory of the children of Israel, says the LORD of
Hosts. {17:4} It will happen in that day that the glory of Jacob will
be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh will become lean. {17:5} It
will be like when the harvester gathers the wheat, and his arm reaps
the grain. Yes, it will be like when one gleans grain in the valley of
Rephaim. {17:6} Yet gleanings will be left there, like the shaking of
an olive tree, two or three olives in the top of the uppermost bough,
four or five in the outermost branches of a fruitful tree, says the
LORD, the God of Israel. {17:7} In that day, people will look to their
Maker, and their eyes will have respect for the Holy One of Israel.
{17:8} They will not look to the altars, the work of their hands;
neither shall they respect that which their fingers have made, either
the Asherim, or the incense altars. {17:9} In that day, their strong
cities will be like the forsaken places in the woods and on the
mountain top, which were forsaken from before the children of Israel;
and it will be a desolation. {17:10} For you have forgotten the God of
your salvation, and have not remembered the rock of your strength.
Therefore you plant pleasant plants, and set out foreign seedlings.
{17:11} In the day of your planting, you hedge it in. In the morning,
you make your seed blossom, but the harvest flees away in the day of
grief and of desperate sorrow. {17:12} Ah, the uproar of many peoples,
who roar like the roaring of the seas; and the rushing of nations,
that rush like the rushing of mighty waters! {17:13} The nations will
rush like the rushing of many waters: but he will rebuke them, and
they will flee far off, and will be chased like the chaff of the
mountains before the wind, and like the whirling dust before the
storm. {17:14} At evening, behold, terror! Before the morning, they
are no more. This is the portion of those who plunder us, and the lot
of those who rob us.
{18:1} Ah, the land of the rustling of wings, which is beyond the
rivers of Ethiopia; {18:2} that sends ambassadors by the sea, even in
vessels of papyrus on the waters, saying, Go, you swift messengers,
to a nation tall and smooth, to a people awesome from their beginning
onward, a nation that
