1 Tedae tuitunli kah laivin dongah sut pai. Te vaengah satlung pakhat tuitunli lamkah halo te ka hmuh. A ki parha neh a lu parhih a khueh tih a ki dongah lukhuem parha om. A lu ah soehsalnah ming a phueih.
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and I saw a beast rising up out of the sea, which had seven heads and ten horns; and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy.
2 Te vaengah satlung ka hmuh te tah kaihlaeng phek la om tih a kho tah vom kho bangla om. A ka tah sathueng ka bangla om. Tuihnam loh a thaomnah neh a ngolkhoel neh aka len koek saithainah te a taengah a paek.
And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority.
3 Te vaengah a lu pakhat te dueknah duela a ngawn bangla om. Tedae a dueknah lucik tah a hoeih pah. Te dongah diklai tah a pum la a ngaihmang uh tih satlung hnukah banguh.
And I saw one of his heads as it were mortally wounded, but his deadly wound was healed: and all the earth wondered and went after the beast.
4 Satlung te saithainah a paek coeng dongah tuihnam te a bawk uh. Satlung te a bawk uh vaengah, “Satlung phek la unim aka om? Unim a taengah aka vathoh thai,” a ti uh.
And they worshipped the dragon, who gave his power to the beast, and they worshipped the beast likewise, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war against him?
5 A ka te cal khungdaeng ham neh soehsalnah a paek. Saithainah te hla sawmli panit khuiah tueng sak ham a paek.
And there was given him a mouth speaking great and blasphemous things, and power was given him to make war forty two months.
6 Te dongah Pathen te soehsalnah neh a ka a ang thil. A ming neh a dap te khaw, vaan ah aka rhaeh rhoek khaw a soehsal pah.
And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and those that dwell in heaven.
7 Hlangcim rhoek taengah caem thoh ham neh amih te noeng hama paek. Koca boeih neh pilnam soah, ol neh namtom taengah saithainah a paek.
And he was permitted to make war upon the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over every tribe, and tongue, and nation.
8 Te phoeiah diklai hmankah khosa boeih, Diklai tongnah lamloh a ngawn tangtae tuca kah hingnah cayol ah a ming a daek pawt rhoek loh te te a bawk uh ni.
So that all who dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
9 Khat khat long ni hna a khueh atah ya saeh.
If any one hath an ear, let him hear. Whosoever leadeth into captivity shall go away into captivity:
10 Khat khat ni a tamna ham atah tamna la cet coeng. Khat khat ni cunghang neh a ngawn ham atah cunghang neh a ngawn. He ah he hlangcim rhoek kah uehnah neh tangnah te om.
and he, that killeth with the sword, shall be slain with the sword. Here then is the patience and faith of the saints.
11 Te phoeiah diklai lamkah satlung a tloe a thoeng te ka hmuh. Te vaengah tuca phek la a ki panit a khueh dae tuihnam bangla cal.
And I saw another beast ascending out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb; but he spake like a dragon.
12 Satlung lamhma kah saithainah te khaw a hmaiah boeih a saii. Diklai neh a khuikah khosa rhoek, dueknah lucik loh a hoeih sak rhoek tah lamhma kah satlung bawk sak ham a saii.
And he exerciseth all the authority of the first beast in his presence; and makes the earth, and those that dwell in it, to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 Te phoeiah miknoek khaw muep a saii. Hlang hmaiah vaan lamkah hmai pataeng diklai la suntlak sak ham a saii.
And he doth great wonders, so that even maketh fire to come down from heaven to earth in the sight of men; and deceiveth those that dwell on the earth,
14 Diklai hmankah khosa rhoek khaw a rhaithi coeng. Te miknoek nen te satlung hmaiah saii ham a paek coeng. Satlung kah muei saii pah ham te diklai dongkah khosa rhoek te a uen. Anih tah cunghang dongkah lucik te a dang dae koep hing.
by the signs which it was given him to do in the presence of the beast, telling the inhabitants of the earth to make an image to the beast, that had received the wound of the sword, and yet lived.
15 Satlung kah a muei te mueihla paek thai ham khaw a paek. Te nen ni satlung muei a loh sak vetih satlung muei aka bawk pawt boeih te ngawn ham khaw a saii eh.
And he was permitted to give life to the image of the beast, that it might both speak, and cause all those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain.
16 Te phoeiah a cungkuem la a saii coeng. A yit neh a len, boei neh khodaeng, aka loeih neh sal te khaw amamih kah bantang kut ah khaw, a tal dongah khaw kutnoek daeng sak ham a saii.
And he maketh all, both small and great, rich and poor, free-men and slaves, to receive a mark on their right hand, or on their foreheads: and that no one might buy or sell,
17 Te nen te kutnoek aka khueh pawt atah pakhat long khaw a lai ham neh a yoih ham te coeng mahpawh. Te te satlung kah ming neh a ming dongkah toeknah coeng ni.
but he that hath the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Cueihnah tah om he. Lungbuei aka khueh loh satlung kah toeknah te tae saeh. A toeknah tah hlang ni. A toeknah tah yarhuk sawmrhuk parhuk ni.
Here is wisdom required; and let him, that hath understanding, compute the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man, and his number is six hundred sixty six.
