Wycliffe - Luke - 21

21:1  And he biheeld, and saye tho riche men, that casten her yiftis in to the treserie;

21:2  but he saye also a litil pore widewe castynge twei ferthingis.

21:3  And he seide, Treuli Y seie to you, that this pore widewe keste more than alle men.

21:4  For whi alle these of thing that was plenteuouse to hem casten in to the yiftis of God; but this widewe of that thing that failide to hir, caste al hir liflode, that sche hadde.

21:5  And whanne sum men seiden of the temple, that it was apparailid with gode stoonus and yiftis,

21:6  he seide, These thingis that ye seen, daies schulen come, in whiche a stoon schal not be left on a stoon, which schal not be destried.

21:7  And thei axiden hym, and seiden, Comaundour, whanne schulen these thingis be? and what tokne schal be, whanne thei schulen bigynne to be don?

21:8  And he seide, Se ye, that ye be not disseyued; for many schulen come in my name, seiynge, For Y am, and the tyme schal neiye; therfor nyle ye go aftir hem.

21:9  And whanne ye schulen here batailis and stryues with ynne, nyle ye be aferd; it bihoueth first these thingis to be don, but not yit anoon is an ende.

21:10  Thanne he seide to hem, Folk schal rise ayens folk, and rewme ayens rewme;

21:11  grete mouyngis of erthe schulen be bi placis, and pestilencis, and hungris, and dredis fro heuene, and grete tokenes schulen be.

21:12  But bifore alle these thingis thei schulen sette her hoondis on you, and schulen pursue, bitakynge in to synagogis and kepyngis, drawynge to kyngis and to iusticis, for my name;

21:13  but it schal falle to you in to witnessyng.

21:14  Therfor putte ye in youre hertis, not to thenke bifore, hou ye schulen answere; for Y schal yyue to you mouth and wisdom,

21:15  to whiche alle youre aduersaries schulen not mowe ayenstonde, and ayenseie.

21:16  And ye schulen be takun of fadir, and modir, and britheren, and cosyns, and freendis, and bi deeth thei schulen turmente of you;

21:17  and ye schulen be in haate to alle men for my name.

21:18  And an heere of youre heed schal not perische;

21:19  in youre pacience ye schulen welde youre soulis.

21:20  But whanne ye schulen se Jerusalem ben enuyround with an oost, thanne wite ye, that the desolacioun of it schal neiye.

21:21  Thanne thei that ben in Judee, fle to the mountans; and thei that ben in the mydil of it, gon awei; and thei that ben in the cuntreis, entre not in to it.

21:22  For these ben daies of veniaunce, that alle thingis that ben writun, be fulfillid.

21:23  And wo to hem, that ben with child, and norischen in tho daies; for a greet diseese schal be on the erthe, and wraththe to this puple.

21:24  And thei schulen falle bi the scharpnesse of swerd, and thei schulen be led prisoneris in to alle folkis; and Jerusalem schal be defoulid of hethene men, til the tymes of naciouns be fulfillid.

21:25  And tokenes schulen be in the sunne, and the mone, and in the sterris; and in the erthe ouerleiyng of folkis, for confusioun of sown of the see and of floodis;

21:26  for men schulen wexe drye for drede and abidyng that schulen come to al the world; for vertues of heuenes schulen be mouyd.

21:27  And thanne thei schulen se mannys sone comynge in a cloude, with greet power and maieste.

21:28  And whanne these thingis bigynnen to be maad, biholde ye, and reise ye youre heedis, for youre redempcioun neiyeth.

21:29  And he seide to hem a liknesse, Se ye the fige tre, and alle trees,

21:30  whanne thei bryngen forth now of hem silf fruyt, ye witen that somer is nyy;

21:31  so ye, whanne ye seen these thingis to be don, wite ye, that the kyngdom of God is nyy.

21:32  Treuli Y seie to you, that this generacioun schal not passe, til alle thingis be don.

21:33  Heuene and erthe schulen passe, but my wordis schulen not passe.

21:34  But take ye heede to you silf, lest perauenture youre hertis be greuyd with glotony, and drunkenesse, and bisynessis of this lijf, and thilke dai come sodein on you; for as a snare it schal come on alle men,

21:35  that sitten on the face of al erthe.

21:36  Therfor wake ye, preiynge in ech tyme, that ye be hadde worthi to fle alle these thingis that ben to come, and to stonde bifor mannus sone.

21:37  And in daies he was techynge in the temple, but in nyytis he yede out, and dwellide in the mount, that is clepid of Olyuet.

21:38  And al the puple roos eerli, to come to hym in the temple, and to here hym.
