Olphong 5

1 Te phoeiah ngolkhoel soah aka ngol kah bantang ah a khui neh a hnuk ah ca a daek cayol te kutnoek parhih neh a daeng te ka hmuh.

AND I saw on the right hand of him who was seated on the throne a volume of a book written within, and on the back sealed with seven seals.

2 Te vaengah aka tlung puencawn te ol ue la a hoe te ka hmuh. Ulae cayol aka ong ham neh kutnoek te aka hlam ham aka tiing?

And I saw mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to break the seals thereon?

3 Tedae vaan ah khaw, diklai hmanah khaw, diklai khuiah khaw, cayol aka ong tih aka so thai om pawh.

And no man was able in heaven, nor upon earth, nor under the earth, to open the book, nor to look into it.

4 Cayol ong ham neh sawt ham aka tingtawk ka hmuh pawt dongah mat ka rhap.

And I wept much because no man was found worthy either to open or read the book, or even to look upon it.

5 Te vaengah patong rhoek khuikah pa khat loh kai te, “Rhap boeh, Judah koca, David kah a yung lamkah aka om sathueng loh cayol neh kutnoek parhih ong ham a noeng coeng he,” a ti.

And one of the presbyters said unto me, Weep not: behold the lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, hath prevailed, to open the book, and to break the seven seals upon it.

6 Te phoeiah ngolkhoel neh mulhing pali laklo neh patong rhoek lakli ah a ngawn tangtae bangla tuca a pai te ka hmuh tih ki parhih neh mik parhih a khueh. Te rhoek tah diklai pum la a tueih Pathen kah mueihla parhih ni.

And I beheld, and lo! in the midst of the throne, and of the four living beings, and in the midst of the presbyters, stood a lamb as just slaughtered, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God that are sent forth into all the world:

7 Te vaengah ha pawk tih ngolkhoel dongah aka ngol bantang kah te a loh.

and he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that was seated upon the throne.

8 Tekah cayol te loh vaengah tah mulhing pali neh patong rhoek pakul pali tah Tuca hmaiah bakop uh. Rhotoeng neh bo-ul aka bae sui bunang khaw rhip a pom uh. Te tah hlangcim rhoek kah thangthuinah la om.

And when he had taken the book, the four living beings and the four and twenty presbyters prostrated themselves before the lamb, having each harps, and vases of gold, full of perfumes smoaking, which are the prayers of the saints.

9 Laa thai khaw a sak uh tih, “Cayol aka doe tih kutnoek ong ham a tingtawk la na om pai. Ng'ngawn coeng dae na thii lamloh hlang koca neh ol cungkuem lamkah namtom neh pilnam te Pathen ham na lai.

And they sung a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open the seals thereon; because thou hast been slaughtered, and hast redeemed us for God by thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10 Amih te mamih kah Pathen taengah a ram neh khosoih rhoek la na saii. Te dongah diklai soah manghai uh pawn ni,” a ti uh.

and hast made us for our God kings and priests, and we shall reign upon the earth.

11 Te vaengah ka sawt hatah mulhing rhoek neh patong rhoek kah ngolkhoel taengvai ah puencawn rhoek kah a ol te muep ka yaak. A hlangmi tah a thawng, a thawng neh a sang, a sang la om uh.

And I looked, and heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and the living beings, and the presbyters, and their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,

12 “Ngawn tangtae tuca tah thaomnah, khuehtawn, cueihnah, thadueng, hinyahnah, thangpomnah neh yoethennah a dang ham aka tingtawk la om pai,” tila ol neh rhuprhup a ti uh.

crying with a loud voice, Worthy is the slaughtered lamb to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and might, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

13 Vaan neh diklai hman, diklai khui neh tuili sokah kutngo boeih neh a khuikah boeih long khaw, “Ngolkhoel sokah aka ngol neh tuca te yoethennah, hinyahnah, thangpomnah neh thaomnah te kumhal ah kumhal duela om saeh,” a ti uh te ka yaak. (aiōn g165)

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and those who are on the sea, and all things which are therein, heard I, saying, To him who is seated on the throne, and to the lamb, be blessing, and honour, and glory, and might for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)

14 Mulhing pali long khaw, “Amen!” a ti uh. Patong rhoek long khaw bakop uh tih a bawk uh.

And the four living beings said, Amen. And the four and twenty presbyters prostrated themselves, and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
