ܓܠܝܢܐ 17
| ܘܐܬܐ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܫܒܥ ܙܒܘܪܝܢ ܘܡܠܠ ܥܡܝ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܬܐ ܒܬܪܝ ܐܚܘܝܟ ܕܝܢܐ ܕܙܢܝܬܐ ܕܝܬܒܐ ܥܠ ܡܝܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ | 1 |
And one of the seven angels, which had the seven bowls, came and spoke with me, saying, Come here, I will shew thee the sentence of the great harlot who sits upon the many waters;
| ܕܥܡܗ ܙܢܝܘ ܡܠܟܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܘܪܘܝܘ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܥܡܘܪܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܡܢ ܚܡܪܐ ܕܙܢܝܘܬܗ | 2 |
with whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication; and they that dwell on the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
| ܘܐܦܩܢܝ ܠܚܘܪܒܐ ܒܪܘܚ ܘܚܙܝܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܕܝܬܒܐ ܥܠ ܚܝܘܬܐ ܤܘܡܩܬܐ ܕܡܠܝܐ ܫܡܗܐ ܕܓܘܕܦܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܪܫܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܩܪܢܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܤܪ | 3 |
And he carried me away in spirit to a desert; and I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
| ܘܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܕܡܥܛܦܐ ܐܪܓܘܢܐ ܘܙܚܘܪܝܬܐ ܕܡܕܗܒܢ ܒܕܗܒܐ ܘܟܐܦܐ ܛܒܬܐ ܘܡܪܓܢܝܬܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܟܤܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܥܠ ܐܝܕܗ ܘܡܠܐ ܛܡܐܘܬܐ ܘܤܘܝܒܐ ܕܙܢܝܘܬܗ | 4 |
And the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and had ornaments of gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and the unclean things of her fornication;
| ܘܥܠ ܒܝܬ ܥܝܢܝܗ ܟܬܝܒ ܐܪܙܐ ܒܒܝܠ ܪܒܬܐ ܐܡܐ ܕܙܢܝܬܐ ܘܕܤܘܝܒܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ | 5 |
and upon her forehead a name written, Mystery, great Babylon, the mother of the harlots, and of the abominations of the earth.
| ܘܚܙܝܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܕܪܘܝܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܡܢ ܕܡܐ ܕܤܗܕܘܗܝ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܬܕܡܪܬ ܕܘܡܪܐ ܪܒܐ ܟܕ ܚܙܝܬܗ | 6 |
And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus. And I wondered, seeing her, with great wonder.
| ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܠܡܢܐ ܐܬܕܡܪܬ ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܪܐܙܐ ܕܐܢܬܬܐ ܘܕܚܝܘܬܐ ܕܛܥܝܢܐ ܠܗ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܫܒܥܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܘܥܤܪ ܩܪܢܢ | 7 |
And the angel said to me, Why hast thou wondered? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast which carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.
| ܚܝܘܬܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܘܠܝܬܝܗ ܥܬܝܕܐ ܕܬܤܩ ܡܢ ܝܡܐ ܘܠܐܒܕܢܐ ܐܙܠܐ ܘܢܬܕܡܪܘܢ ܥܡܪܝ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܟܬܝܒܝܢ ܫܡܗܝܗܘܢ ܒܤܦܪܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܡܢ ܬܪܡܝܬܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܚܝܘܬܐ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܘܠܝܬܝܗ ܘܩܪܒܬ (Abyssos g12) | 8 |
The beast which thou sawest was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss and go into destruction: and they who dwell on the earth, whose names are not written from the founding of the world in the book of life, shall wonder, seeing the beast, that it was, and is not, and shall be present. (Abyssos g12)
| ܗܪܟܐ ܗܘܢܐ ܠܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܛܘܪܝܢ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܝܬܒܐ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ | 9 |
Here is the mind that has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains, whereon the woman sits.
| ܘܡܠܟܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܚܡܫܐ ܢܦܠܘ ܘܚܕ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܠܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܐܬܐ ܘܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܩܠܝܠ ܝܗܝܒ ܠܗ ܠܡܟܬܪܘ | 10 |
And there are seven kings: five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes he must remain [only] a little while.
| ܘܬܢܝܢܐ ܘܚܝܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܘܠܝܬܝܗ ܘܗܝ ܕܬܡܢܝܐ ܘܡܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܗܝ ܘܠܐܒܕܢܐ ܐܙܠܐ | 11 |
And the beast that was and is not, he also is an eighth, and is of the seven, and goes into destruction.
| ܘܥܤܪ ܩܪܢܢ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܥܤܪܐ ܡܠܟܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܢܤܒܘ ܐܠܐ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܠܟܐ ܚܕܐ ܫܥܬܐ ܫܩܠܝܢ ܥܡ ܚܝܘܬܐ | 12 |
And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have not yet received a kingdom, but receive authority as kings one hour with the beast.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܚܕ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܚܝܠܐ ܘܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܝܠܗܘܢ ܠܚܝܘܬܐ ܝܗܒܝܢ | 13 |
These have one mind, and give their power and authority to the beast.
| ܗܠܝܢ ܥܡ ܐܡܪܐ ܢܩܪܒܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܐ ܢܙܟܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܪܘܬܐ ܘܡܠܟ ܡܠܟܐ ܘܕܥܡܗ ܩܪܝܐ ܘܓܒܝܐ ܘܡܗܝܡܢܐ | 14 |
These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them; for he is Lord of lords and King of kings: and they [that are] with him called, and chosen, and faithful.
| ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܡܝܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܕܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܝܬܒܐ ܙܢܝܬܐ ܥܡܡܐ ܘܟܢܫܐ ܘܐܡܘܬܐ ܘܠܫܢܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ | 15 |
And he says to me, The waters which thou sawest, where the harlot sits, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues.
| ܘܥܤܪ ܩܪܢܬܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܠܚܝܘܬܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܢܤܢܝܢ ܠܙܢܝܬܐ ܘܚܪܒܬܐ ܘܥܪܛܠܝܬܐ ܢܥܒܕܘܢܗ ܘܒܤܪܗ ܢܐܟܠܘܢ ܘܢܘܩܕܘܢܗ ܒܢܘܪܐ | 16 |
And the ten horns which thou sawest, and the beast, these shall hate the harlot, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and shall burn her with fire;
| ܐܠܗܐ ܓܝܪ ܝܗܒ ܒܠܒܘܬܗܘܢ ܕܢܥܒܕܘܢ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܘܢܥܒܕܘܢ ܨܒܝܢܗܘܢ ܚܕ ܘܢܬܠܘܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܗܘܢ ܠܚܝܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܢܫܬܡܠܝܢ ܡܠܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ | 17 |
for God has given to their hearts to do his mind, and to act with one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
| ܘܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܡܠܟܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ | 18 |
And the woman which thou sawest is the great city, which has kingship over the kings of the earth.
