Olphong 17

1 bunang parhih aka pom puencawn parhih khuikah pakhat ha pawk vaengah kai taengah cal tih, “Halo lah, tui ke yet soah aka ngol hlanghalh puei kah laitloeknah te nang kan tueng eh.

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;

2 Diklai manghai rhoek tah anih taengah cukhalh uh. A Cukhalnah misurtui te diklai khosa rhoek loh rhui uh,” a ti.

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.

3 Te phoeiah kai te Mueihla loh khosoek la n'khuen. Te vaengah satlung a nukyum soah aka ngol huta pakhat ka hmuh. Anih te soehsalnah ming neh bae tih a lu parhih neh a ki parha a khueh.

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.

4 Te vaengah huta loh daidi neh a nukyum la aka om te a bai tih sui neh lung then neh laitha neh thoeihcam uh. A kut dongkah sui boengloeng a pom dae a Cukhalnah tueilaehnah neh rhalawt la bae.

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;

5 A tal ah khaw, “Olhuep, Babylon puei, hlanghalh rhoek kah a manu, diklai kah tueilaehnah tila ming a daek coeng.

and upon her forehead a name written, Mystery, great Babylon, the mother of the harlots, and of the abominations of the earth.

6 Te phoeiah hlangcim rhoek kah thii neh Jesuh laipai rhoek kah thii te aka rhui huta te ka hmuh vaengah ka ngaihmang tih anih ka hmuh te bahoeng ka ngaihmang.

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.

7 Te vaengah puencawn loh kai taengah, “Balae tih na ngai a hmang. Kai loh huta neh anih aka phuei satlung a lu parhih neh a ki parha aka khueh kah olhuep te nang ham kan thui bitni,” a ti.

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.

8 Satlung na hmuh te om coeng dae tahae ah om pawh. Tedae tangrhom dung lamkah ha thoeng tih pocinah te paan la cai coeng. Te dongah diklai dongkah khosa rhoek tah a ngaihmang uh ni. Te rhoek kah ming tah Diklai a tongnah lamloh hingnah cayol ah a daek pah moenih. Satlung aka om coeng dae om pawt tih koep aka phoe te a hmuh uh. (Abyssos g12)

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)

9 He dongah lungbuei ah cueihnah khueh ham om. Lu parhih te tlang parhih la om. Te rhoek soah huta te ngol. Tlang parhih te manghai parhih lamkhaw om.

Here is the mind that has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains, whereon the woman sits.

10 Panga te bung tih pakhat te om tih a tloe pakhat te ha pawk hlan. Ha pawk vaengah khaw rhaih a naeh ham a kuek.

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.

11 Te dongah te kah satlung aka om bueng loh a om moenih. A parhet a om vaengah a parhih khuikah khaw om pueng tih pocinah te a pha.

And the beast that was and is not, he also is an eighth, and is of the seven, and goes into destruction.

12 A ki parha na hmuh te tah manghai parha la om. Amih loh ram te dang uh hlan. Tedae manghai bangla saithainah te satlung neh khonoek pakhat ah a dang uh ni.

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.

13 Amih loh kopoek pakhat la a khueh uh tih a thaomnah neh saithainah te satlung a paek uh.

These have one mind, and give their power and authority to the beast.

14 Amih loh Tuca te a caemthoh thiluh. Tuca loh amih te a noeng ni. Boei rhoek kah Boeipa neh manghai rhoek kah Manghai la om. Amah taengkah rhoek te khaw a khue rhoek, a coelh rhoek neh uepom rhoek ni.

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.

15 Te phoeiah kai taengah a thui tah, “Tui te tah na hmuh coeng, te ah te hlanghalh ngol. Te tah namtom neh ol com ol cae kah pilnam hlangping ni.

And he says to me, The waters which thou sawest, where the harlot sits, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues.

16 A ki parha neh satlung te na hmuh. Te long te te khaw hlanghalh nu te a hmuhuet uh ni. Te vaengah a tlingyal la a saii uh vetih a poeih uh ni. Te phoeiah a saa te a caak uh vetih hmai neh a hoeh uh ni.

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;

17 Pathen loh a mangtaengnah saii ham amih kah thinko khuiah a khueh pa coeng. Pathen kah olka a soep duela lungbuei pakhat la khueh tih a ram te satlung taengah paek ham om coeng.

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.

18 Huta na hmuh te khaw diklai manghai rhoek soah poengnah aka khueh kho puei ni “a ti.

And the woman which thou sawest is the great city, which has kingship over the kings of the earth.
