24:1
Καὶ ἐξελθὼν ὁ Ἰησοῦς ἀπὸ τοῦ ἱεροῦ ἐπορεύετο, καὶ προσῆλθον οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ ἐπιδεῖξαι αὐτῷ τὰς οἰκοδομὰς τοῦ ἱεροῦ·
Et egressus Jesus de templo, ibat. Et accesserunt discipuli ejus, ut ostenderent ei aedificationes templi.
ወወፂኦ እግዚእ ኢየሱስ እምቤተ መቅደስ ሖረ ወቀርቡ አርዳኢሁ ወአርአይዎ ንደቀ ሕንጻሁ ለቤተ መቅደስ።
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.
24:2
ὁ δὲ ἀποκριθεὶς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· οὐ βλέπετε ταῦτα πάντα; ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ ἀφεθῇ ὧδε λίθος ἐπὶ λίθον, ὃς οὐ καταλυθήσεται.
Ipse autem respondens dixit illis : Videtis haec omnia ? amen dico vobis, non relinquetur hic lapis super lapidem, qui non destruatur.
ወአውሥአ ወይቤሎሙ ትሬእዩኑ ዘንተ ኵሎ አማን እብለክሙ ኢይትኀደግ ዝየ እብን ዲበ እብን ዘኢይትነሠት።
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
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 συντελείας τοῦ αἰῶνος;
Sedente autem eo super montem Oliveti, accesserunt ad eum discipuli secreto, dicentes : Dic nobis, quando haec erunt ? et quod signum adventus tui, et consummationis saeculi ?
ወእንዘ ይነብር እግዚእነ ውስተ ደብረ ዘይት ቀርቡ ኀቤሁ አርዳኢሁ እንተ ባሕቲቶሙ ወይቤልዎ ንግረነ ማእዜ ይከውን ዝንቱ ወምንት ተአምሪሁ ለምጽአትከ ወለኅልቀተ ዓለም።
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
καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ Ἰησοῦς εἶπεν αὐτοῖς· βλέπετε μή τις ὑμᾶς πλανήσῃ.
Et respondens Jesus, dixit eis : Videte ne quis vos seducat :
ወአውሥአ እግዚእ ኢየሱስ ወይቤሎሙ ዑቁ ኢያስሕቱክሙ።
Jesus answered them, “Be careful that no one leads you astray.
24:5
πολλοὶ γὰρ ἐλεύσονται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου λέγοντες· ἐγώ εἰμι ὁ Χριστός, καὶ πολλοὺς πλανήσουσιν.
multi enim venient in nomine meo, dicentes : Ego sum Christus : et multos seducent.
እስመ ብዙኃን ይመጽኡ በስምየ እንዘ ይብሉ አነ ውእቱ ክርስቶስ ወያስሕትዎሙ ለብዙኃን።
For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will lead many astray.
24:6
μελλήσετε δὲ ἀκούειν πολέμους καὶ ἀκοὰς πολέμων· ὁρᾶτε μὴ θροεῖσθε· δεῖ γὰρ γενέσθαι, ἀλλ’ οὔπω ἐστὶν τὸ τέλος.
Audituri enim estis praelia, et opiniones praeliorum. Videte ne turbemini : oportet enim haec fieri, sed nondum est finis :

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
ἐγερθήσεται γὰρ ἔθνος ἐπ’ ἔθνος καὶ βασιλεία ἐπὶ βασιλείαν, καὶ ἔσονται λιμοὶ καὶ σεισμοὶ κατὰ τόπους·
consurget enim gens in gentem, et regnum in regnum, et erunt pestilentiae, et fames, et terraemotus per loca :
ወይትነሥኡ ሕዝብ ዲበ ሕዝብ ወነገሥት ላዕለ ነገሥት ወይመጽእ ረኃብ ወብድብድ ወድልቅልቅ ወሀከክ በበ በሓውርቲሁ።
For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there will be famines, plagues, and earthquakes in various places.
24:8
πάντα δὲ ταῦτα ἀρχὴ ὠδίνων.
haec autem omnia initia sunt dolorum.
ወዝንቱ ኵሉ ቀዳሚሁ ለሕማም።
But all these things are the beginning of birth pains.
24:9
τότε παραδώσουσιν ὑμᾶς εἰς θλῖψιν καὶ ἀποκτενοῦσιν ὑμᾶς, καὶ ἔσεσθε μισούμενοι ὑπὸ πάντων τῶν ἐθνῶν διὰ τὸ ὄνομά μου.
Tunc tradent vos in tribulationem, et occident vos : et eritis odio omnibus gentibus propter nomen meum.
አሜሃ ይትባጽሑክሙ ወይሜጥዉክሙ ለምንዳቤ ወይቀሥፉክሙ ወይቀትሉክሙ ወይጸልኡክሙ ወትከውኑ ጽሉኣነ በኀበ ኵሉ ሰብእ በእንተ ስምየ።
“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
καὶ τότε σκανδαλισθήσονται πολλοὶ καὶ ἀλλήλους παραδώσουσιν καὶ μισήσουσιν ἀλλήλους·
Et tunc scandalizabuntur multi, et invicem tradent, et odio habebunt invicem.
ወአሜሃ የዐልዉ ብዙኃን ሃይማኖቶሙ ወይጻልኡ በበይናቲሆሙ ወይትቃተሉ።
Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another.
24:11
καὶ πολλοὶ ψευδοπροφῆται ἐγερθήσονται καὶ πλανήσουσιν πολλούς·
Et multi pseudoprophetae surgent, et seducent multos.
ወብዙኃን ሐሳውያነ ነቢያት ይመጽኡ ወለብዙኃን ያስሕትዎሙ።
Many false prophets will arise and will lead many astray.
24:12
καὶ διὰ τὸ πληθυνθῆναι τὴν ἀνομίαν ψυγήσεται ἡ ἀγάπη τῶν πολλῶν.
Et quoniam abundavit iniquitas, refrigescet caritas multorum :
ወእምብዝኀ ዓመፃ ወእከይ ትሴኵስ ፍቅር እምብዙኃን።
Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.
24:13
ὁ δὲ ὑπομείνας εἰς τέλος οὗτος σωθήσεται.
qui autem perseveraverit usque in finem, hic salvus erit.
ወዘሰ አዝለፈ ትዕግሥቶ ውእቱ ይድኅን።
But he who endures to the end will be saved.
24:14
καὶ κηρυχθήσεται τοῦτο τὸ εὐαγγέλιον τῆς βασιλείας ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ οἰκουμένῃ εἰς μαρτύριον πᾶσιν τοῖς ἔθνεσιν, καὶ τότε ἥξει τὸ τέλος.
Et praedicabitur hoc Evangelium regni in universo orbe, in testimonium omnibus gentibus : et tunc veniet consummatio.

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
Ὅταν οὖν ἴδητε τὸ βδέλυγμα τῆς ἐρημώσεως τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ Δανιὴλ τοῦ προφήτου ἑστὸς ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ, ὁ ἀναγινώσκων νοείτω,
Cum ergo videritis abominationem desolationis, quae dicta est a Daniele propheta, stantem in loco sancto, qui legit, intelligat :
ወእምከመ ርኢክሙ ትእምርተ ርኵስ ዘምዝባሬ ዘተብህለ በዳንኤል ነቢይ «እንዘ ይቀውም ውስተ መካን ቅዱስ ዘያነብብ ለይለቡ።»
“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),
24:16
τότε οἱ ἐν τῇ Ἰουδαίᾳ φευγέτωσαν ἐπὶ τὰ ὄρη,
tunc qui in Judaea sunt, fugiant ad montes :
አሜሃ እለ ውስተ ይሁዳ ይጐዩ ውስተ አድባር።
then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.
24:17
ὁ ἐπὶ τοῦ δώματος μὴ καταβάτω ἆραι τὰ ἐκ τῆς οἰκίας αὐτοῦ,
et qui in tecto, non descendat tollere aliquid de domo sua :
ወዘሂ ሀሎ ውስተ ናሕስ ኢይረድ ይንሣእ ዘውስተ ቤቱ።
Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take out the things that are in his house.
24:18
καὶ ὁ ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ μὴ ἐπιστρεψάτω ὀπίσω ἆραι τὸ ἱμάτιον αὐτοῦ.
et qui in agro, non revertatur tollere tunicam suam.
ወዘሂ ውስተ ገራህት ሀሎ ኢይትመየጥ ድኅሬሁ ይንሣእ ልብሶ።
Let him who is in the field not return back to get his clothes.
24:19
οὐαὶ δὲ ταῖς ἐν γαστρὶ ἐχούσαις καὶ ταῖς θηλαζούσαις ἐν ἐκείναις ταῖς ἡμέραις.
Vae autem praegnantibus et nutrientibus in illis diebus !
ወባሕቱ አሌ ሎን ለፅኑሳት ወለእለ የሐፅና በውእቱ መዋዕል።
But woe to those who are with child and to nursing mothers in those days!
24:20
προσεύχεσθε δὲ ἵνα μὴ γένηται ἡ φυγὴ ὑμῶν χειμῶνος μηδὲ σαββάτῳ·
Orate autem ut non fiat fuga vestra in hieme, vel sabbato :
ወጸልዩ ባሕቱ ከመ ኢይኩን ጕያክሙ በክረምት ወበሰንበት።
Pray that your flight will not be in the winter nor on a Sabbath,
24:21
ἔσται γὰρ τότε θλῖψις μεγάλη οἵα οὐκ ἐγένετο ἀπ’ ἀρχῆς κόσμου ἕως τοῦ νῦν οὐδ’ οὐ μὴ γένηται.
erit enim tunc tribulatio magna, qualis non fuit ab initio mundi usque modo, neque fiet.

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.
24:22
καὶ εἰ μὴ ἐκολοβώθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι ἐκεῖναι, οὐκ ἂν ἐσώθη πᾶσα σάρξ· διὰ δὲ τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς κολοβωθήσονται αἱ ἡμέραι ἐκεῖναι.
Et nisi breviati fuissent dies illi, non fieret salva omnis caro : sed propter electos breviabuntur dies illi.

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
τότε ἐάν τις ὑμῖν εἴπῃ· ἰδοὺ ὧδε ὁ Χριστός, ἤ, ὧδε, μὴ πιστεύσητε·
Tunc si quis vobis dixerit : Ecce hic est Christus, aut illic : nolite credere.
አሜሃ እመቦ ዘይቤለክሙ ነዋ ዝየ ሀሎ ክርስቶስ ወነዋ ከሃክ ኢትእመኑ።
“Then if any man tells you, ‘Behold, here is the Christ!’ or, ‘There!’ don’t believe it.
24:24
ἐγερθήσονται γὰρ ψευδόχριστοι καὶ ψευδοπροφῆται, καὶ δώσουσιν σημεῖα μεγάλα καὶ τέρατα, ὥστε πλανηθῆναι, εἰ δυνατόν, καὶ τοὺς ἐκλεκτούς.
Surgent enim pseudochristi, et pseudoprophetae : et dabunt signa magna, et prodigia, ita ut in errorem inducantur (si fieri potest) etiam electi.
እስመ ይትነሥኡ ሐሳውያነ መሲሕ ወሐሳውያነ ነቢያት ወይገብሩ ተአምራተ ወመንክራተ ዐበይተ ለአስሕቶ ሶበሰ ይትከሀሎሙ ለኅሩያንሂ እምአስሐትዎሙ።
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.
24:25
ἰδοὺ προείρηκα ὑμῖν.
Ecce praedixi vobis.
ናሁ አቅደምኩ ነጊሮተክሙ።
“Behold, I have told you beforehand.
24:26
ἐὰν οὖν εἴπωσιν ὑμῖν· ἰδοὺ ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ ἐστίν, μὴ ἐξέλθητε· ἰδοὺ ἐν τοῖς ταμείοις, μὴ πιστεύσητε·
Si ergo dixerint vobis : Ecce in deserto est, nolite exire ; Ecce in penetralibus, nolite credere.
እመቦ ዘይቤለክሙ ነዋ ገዳመ ሀሎ ኢትፃኡ ወነዋ ውስተ አብያት ኢትእመኑ።
“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.
24:27
ὥσπερ γὰρ ἡ ἀστραπὴ ἐξέρχεται ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν καὶ φαίνεται ἕως δυσμῶν, οὕτως ἔσται ἡ παρουσία τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
Sicut enim fulgur exit ab oriente, et paret usque in occidentem : ita erit et adventus Filii hominis.

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.
24:28
ὅπου ἐὰν ᾖ τὸ πτῶμα, ἐκεῖ συναχθήσονται οἱ ἀετοί.
Ubicumque fuerit corpus, illic congregabuntur et aquilae.
ኀበ ሀሎ ገደላ ህየ ይትጋብኡ አንስርት።
For wherever the carcass is, that is where the vultures gather together.
24:29
Εὐθέως δὲ μετὰ τὴν θλῖψιν τῶν ἡμερῶν ἐκείνων ὁ ἥλιος σκοτισθήσεται καὶ ἡ σελήνη οὐ δώσει τὸ φέγγος αὐτῆς, καὶ οἱ ἀστέρες πεσοῦνται ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ, καὶ αἱ δυνάμεις τῶν οὐρανῶν σαλευθήσονται.
Statim autem post tribulationem dierum illorum sol obscurabitur, et luna non dabit lumen suum, et stellae cadent de caelo, et virtutes caelorum commovebuntur :
ወበጊዜሃ እምድኅረ ሕማሞን ለእማንቱ መዋዕል ፀሐይኒ ይጸልም ወወርኅኒ ኢይሁብ ብርሃኖ ወከዋክብትኒ ይወድቁ እምሰማይ ወያንቀለቅል ኀይለ ሰማያት።
“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;
24:30
καὶ τότε φανήσεται τὸ σημεῖον τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐν οὐρανῷ, καὶ κόψονται πᾶσαι αἱ φυλαὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ὄψονται τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐρχόμενον ἐπὶ τῶν νεφελῶν τοῦ οὐρανοῦ μετὰ δυνάμεως καὶ δόξης πολλῆς.
et tunc parebit signum Filii hominis in caelo : et tunc plangent omnes tribus terrae : et videbunt Filium hominis venientem in nubibus caeli cum virtute multa et majestate.
ወይእተ አሚረ ያስተርኢ ተአምሪሁ ለወልደ ዕጓለ እመሕያው በሰማይ አሜሃ ይበክዩ ኵሎሙ አሕዛበ ምድር ሶበ ይሬእይዎ ለወልደ ዕጓለ እመሕያው እንዘ ይመጽእ በደመና ሰማይ ምስለ ኀይል ወስብሐት ብዙኅ።
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
καὶ ἀποστελεῖ τοὺς ἀγγέλους αὐτοῦ μετὰ σάλπιγγος μεγάλης, καὶ ἐπισυνάξουσιν τοὺς ἐκλεκτοὺς αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῶν τεσσάρων ἀνέμων ἀπ’ ἄκρων οὐρανῶν ἕως ἄκρων αὐτῶν.
Et mittet angelos suos cum tuba, et voce magna : et congregabunt electos ejus a quatuor ventis, a summis caelorum usque ad terminos eorum.
ወይፌንዎሙ ለመላእክቲሁ ምስለ ቃለ ቀርን ወስብሐት ዐቢይ ወያስተጋብእዎሙ ለኅሩያኒሁ እምአርባዕቱ ነፋሳት እምአጽናፈ ሰማይ እስከ አጽናፊሃ።
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.
24:32
Ἀπὸ δὲ τῆς συκῆς μάθετε τὴν παραβολήν. ὅταν ἤδη ὁ κλάδος αὐτῆς γένηται ἁπαλὸς καὶ τὰ φύλλα ἐκφύῃ, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγὺς τὸ θέρος·
Ab arbore autem fici discite parabolam : cum jam ramus ejus tener fuerit, et folia nata, scitis quia prope est aestas :

“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.
24:33
οὕτως καὶ ὑμεῖς, ὅταν ἴδητε ταῦτα πάντα, γινώσκετε ὅτι ἐγγύς ἐστιν ἐπὶ θύραις.
ita et vos cum videritis haec omnia, scitote quia prope est, in januis.

Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that he is near, even at the doors.
24:34
ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, οὐ μὴ παρέλθῃ ἡ γενεὰ αὕτη ἕως ἂν πάντα ταῦτα γένηται.

Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.
24:36
Περὶ δὲ τῆς ἡμέρας ἐκείνης καὶ ὥρας οὐδεὶς οἶδεν, οὐδὲ οἱ ἄγγελοι τῶν οὐρανῶν οὐδὲ ὁ υἱός, εἰ μὴ ὁ πατὴρ μόνος.

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
καὶ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν ἕως ἦλθεν ὁ κατακλυσμὸς καὶ ἦρεν ἅπαντας, οὕτως ἔσται καὶ ἡ παρουσία τοῦ υἱοῦ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου.
et non cognoverunt donec venit diluvium, et tulit omnes : ita erit et adventus Filii hominis.

and they didn’t know until the flood came and took them all away, so will the coming of the Son of Man be.
24:40
τότε ἔσονται δύο ἐν τῷ ἀγρῷ, εἷς παραλαμβάνεται καὶ εἷς ἀφίεται·
Tunc duo erunt in agro : unus assumetur, et unus relinquetur.
አሜሃ ክልኤቱ ይሄልዉ ውስተ አሐዱ ገራህት አሐደ ይነሥኡ ወካልኦ የኀድጉ።
Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and one will be left.
24:41

Duae molentes in mola : una assumetur, et una relinquetur.

Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and one will be left.
24:42
γρηγορεῖτε οὖν, ὅτι οὐκ οἴδατε ποίᾳ ἡμέρᾳ ὁ κύριος ὑμῶν ἔρχεται.
Vigilate ergo, quia nescitis qua hora Dominus vester venturus sit.
ትግሁ እንከ እስመ ኢተአምሩ በአይ ሰዓት ይመጽእ እግዚእክሙ።
Watch therefore, for you don’t know in what hour your Lord comes.
24:43
Ἐκεῖνο δὲ γινώσκετε, ὅτι εἰ ᾔδει ὁ οἰκοδεσπότης ποίᾳ φυλακῇ ὁ κλέπτης ἔρχεται, ἐγρηγόρησεν ἂν καὶ οὐκ ἂν εἴασεν διορυχθῆναι τὴν οἰκίαν αὐτοῦ.

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.
24:44
διὰ τοῦτο καὶ ὑμεῖς γίνεσθε ἕτοιμοι, ὅτι ᾗ οὐ δοκεῖτε ὥρᾳ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἔρχεται.
Ideo et vos estote parati : quia qua nescitis hora Filius hominis venturus est.

Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don’t expect, the Son of Man will come.

Τίς ἄρα ἐστὶν ὁ πιστὸς δοῦλος καὶ φρόνιμος, ὃν κατέστησεν ὁ κύριος ἐπὶ τῆς οἰκετείας αὐτοῦ τοῦ δοῦναι αὐτοῖς τὴν τροφὴν ἐν καιρῷ;

“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?

Most certainly I tell you that he will set him over all that he has.
24:48
ἐὰν δὲ εἴπῃ ὁ κακὸς δοῦλος ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ· χρονίζει μου ὁ κύριος,
Si autem dixerit malus servus ille in corde suo : Moram fecit dominus meus venire :
ወእመሰ ይቤ ውእቱ ገብር እኩይ በልቡ ይጐነዲ አቲወ እግዚእየ።
But if that evil servant should say in his heart, ‘My lord is delaying his coming,’
24:49
καὶ ἄρξηται τύπτειν τοὺς συνδούλους αὐτοῦ, ἐσθίῃ δὲ καὶ πίνῃ μετὰ τῶν μεθυόντων·
et coeperit percutere conservos suos, manducet autem et bibat cum ebriosis :
ወይዘብጥ አብያጺሁ አግብርተ ወይበልዕ ወይሰቲ ምስለ ሰካርያን።
and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eat and drink with the drunkards,
24:50
ἥξει ὁ κύριος τοῦ δούλου ἐκείνου ἐν ἡμέρᾳ ᾗ οὐ προσδοκᾷ καὶ ἐν ὥρᾳ ᾗ οὐ γινώσκει,
veniet dominus servi illius in die qua non sperat, et hora qua ignorat :
ወይመጽእ እግዚኡ ለውእቱ ገብር በዕለተ ኢተሐዘበ ወበጊዜ ኢያእመረ።
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,
24:51
καὶ διχοτομήσει αὐτὸν, καὶ τὸ μέρος αὐτοῦ μετὰ τῶν ὑποκριτῶν θήσει· ἐκεῖ ἔσται ὁ κλαυθμὸς καὶ ὁ βρυγμὸς τῶν ὀδόντων.
et dividet eum, partemque ejus ponet cum hypocritis : illic erit fletus et stridor dentium.
ወይሠጥቆ እማእከሉ ወይሬሲ መክፈልቶ ምስለ መደልዋን ኀበ ሀሎ ብካይ ወሐቅየ ስነን።
and will cut him in pieces and appoint his portion with the hypocrites. That is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.
