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.
Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show yoʋ the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters.
2 Diklai manghai rhoek tah anih taengah cukhalh uh. A Cukhalnah misurtui te diklai khosa rhoek loh rhui uh,” a ti.
With her the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and those who dwell on the earth have become 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.
So he carried me away in the Spirit to a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names and had 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.
The woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls. She held in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the filth of her fornication.
5 A tal ah khaw, “Olhuep, Babylon puei, hlanghalh rhoek kah a manu, diklai kah tueilaehnah tila ming a daek coeng.
A mysterious name was written on her forehead: “Babylon the great, the mother of prostitutes 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, the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. When I saw her, I was greatly amazed.
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.
But the angel said to me, “Why are yoʋ so amazed? I will tell yoʋ the mystery of the woman and of the beast with seven heads and ten horns that carries her.
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 that yoʋ saw was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss and go to destruction. Those who dwell on the earth, whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, will be amazed when they see that the beast was and is not and is to come. (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.
This calls for a mind that has wisdom: The seven heads are seven mountains on which 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.
They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and another has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for 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.
The beast that was and is not, is an eighth king. Yet he is one of the seven and is on his way to 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.
The ten horns that yoʋ saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they will receive authority as kings for 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 kings have one mind and will 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.
They will make war with the Lamb, but the Lamb will conquer them because he is the Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with him are called, 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.
Then the angel said to me, “The waters yoʋ saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, 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.
The beast and the ten horns yoʋ saw will hate the prostitute. They will make her desolate and naked; they will eat her flesh and 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 put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by being of one mind and handing their kingdom over to the beast until the words of God are fulfilled.
18 Huta na hmuh te khaw diklai manghai rhoek soah poengnah aka khueh kho puei ni “a ti.
As for the woman yoʋ saw, she is the great city that has dominion over the kings of the earth.”
