رُؤيا 5

١ 1 وَرَأَيْتُ عَلَى يَمِينِ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ سِفْرًا مَكْتُوبًا مِنْ دَاخِلٍ وَمِنْ وَرَاءٍ، مَخْتُومًا بِسَبْعَةِ خُتُومٍ.

And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the back, close sealed with seven seals.

٢ 2 وَرَأَيْتُ مَلَاكًا قَوِيًّا يُنَادِي بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «مَنْ هُوَ مُسْتَحِقٌّ أَنْ يَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَيَفُكَّ خُتُومَهُ؟».

And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a great voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

٣ 3 فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَحَدٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَلَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا تَحْتَ ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنْ يَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَلَا أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهِ.

And no one in the heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look thereon.

٤ 4 فَصِرْتُ أَنَا أَبْكِي كَثِيرًا، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُوجَدْ أَحَدٌ مُسْتَحِقًّا أَنْ يَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَيَقْرَأَهُ وَلَا أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهِ.

And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look thereon:

٥ 5 فَقَالَ لِي وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلشُّيُوخِ: «لَا تَبْكِ. هُوَذَا قَدْ غَلَبَ ٱلْأَسَدُ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا، أَصْلُ دَاوُدَ، لِيَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَيَفُكَّ خُتُومَهُ ٱلسَّبْعَةَ».

and one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion that is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath overcome, to open the book and the seven seals thereof.

٦ 6 وَرَأَيْتُ فَإِذَا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْعَرْشِ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ وَفِي وَسَطِ ٱلشُّيُوخِ خَرُوفٌ قَائِمٌ كَأَنَّهُ مَذْبُوحٌ، لَهُ سَبْعَةُ قُرُونٍ وَسَبْعُ أَعْيُنٍ، هِيَ سَبْعَةُ أَرْوَاحِ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُرْسَلَةُ إِلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

And I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.

٧ 7 فَأَتَى وَأَخَذَ ٱلسِّفْرَ مِنْ يَمِينِ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ.

And he came, and he taketh [it] out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne.

٨ 8 وَلَمَّا أَخَذَ ٱلسِّفْرَ خَرَّتِ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتُ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ وَٱلْعِشْرُونَ شَيْخًا أَمَامَ ٱلْخَروفِ، وَلَهُمْ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ قِيثَارَاتٌ وَجَامَاتٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ مَمْلُوَّةٌ بَخُورًا هِيَ صَلَوَاتُ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ.

And when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having each one a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

٩ 9 وَهُمْ يَتَرَنَّمُونَ تَرْنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً قَائِلِينَ: «مُسْتَحِقٌّ أَنْتَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَتَفْتَحَ خُتُومَهُ، لِأَنَّكَ ذُبِحْتَ وَٱشْتَرَيْتَنَا لِلهِ بِدَمِكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَبِيلَةٍ وَلِسَانٍ وَشَعْبٍ وَأُمَّةٍ،

And they sing a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and didst purchase unto God with thy blood [men] of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation,

١٠ 10 وَجَعَلْتَنَا لِإِلَهِنَا مُلُوكًا وَكَهَنَةً، فَسَنَمْلِكُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ».

and madest them [to be] unto our God a kingdom and priests; and they reign upon the earth.

١١ 11 وَنَظَرْتُ وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ مَلَائِكَةٍ كَثِيرِينَ حَوْلَ ٱلْعَرْشِ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ وَٱلشُّيُوخِ، وَكَانَ عَدَدُهُمْ رَبَوَاتِ رَبَوَاتٍ وَأُلُوفَ أُلُوفٍ،

And I saw, and I heard a voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

١٢ 12 قَائِلِينَ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «مُسْتَحِقٌّ هُوَ ٱلْخَروُفُ ٱلْمَذْبُوحُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ ٱلْقُدْرَةَ وَٱلْغِنَى وَٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَٱلْقُوَّةَ وَٱلْكَرَامَةَ وَٱلْمَجْدَ وَٱلْبَرَكَةَ!».

saying with a great voice, Worthy is the Lamb that hath been slain to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and might, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

١٣ 13 وَكُلُّ خَلِيقَةٍ مِمَّا فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَعَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَتَحْتَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَمَا عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، كُلُّ مَا فِيهَا، سَمِعْتُهَا قَائِلَةً: «لِلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ وَلِلْخَرُوفِ ٱلْبَرَكَةُ وَٱلْكَرَامَةُ وَٱلْمَجْدُ وَٱلسُّلْطَانُ إِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ». (aiōn g165)

And every created thing which is in the heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and on the sea, and all things that are in them, heard I saying, Unto him that sitteth on the throne, and unto the Lamb, [be] the blessing, and the honour, and the glory, and the dominion, for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)

١٤ 14 وَكَانَتِ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتُ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ تَقُولُ: «آمِينَ». وَٱلشُّيُوخُ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ وَٱلْعِشْرُونَ خَرُّوا وَسَجَدُوا لِلْحَيِّ إِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ.

And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the elders fell down and worshipped.
