1 Hethateh, Jisuh Khrih e papholawk lah ao. Het teh nâsittouh ao hoehnahlan kaawm hane hnonaw hah, a sannaw koe pâtue hanlah Khrih dawk Cathut ni poe e hno lah ao. Khrih ni kalvantami hah a patoun teh a san kai Jawhan koe a kamnue sak.
A revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to show to his servants the things which must shortly be; and sending by his messenger, he signified them to his servant John,
2 Jawhan nihai Cathut lawk hoi Jisuh Khrih e lawkpanuesaknae pueng hah a hmu e patetlah a kampangkhai.
who testified the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, whatever he saw.
3 Atueng a hnai toung dawkvah, hete sutdeilawk ka touk e, ka thai e, hoi a thung thut e lawknaw katarawinaw teh a yawhawi awh.
Happy is he that reads, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it; for the time is at hand.
4 Kai Jawhan ni Asia ram kaawm e kawhmounnaw sari touh koe ka thut. Kaawm lahun e, kaawm tangcoung e hoi ka tho han rae Bawipa koehoi a bawitungkhung hmalah kaawm e muitha sari touh koehoi,
John, to the seven congregation which are in Asia; favor and peace be with you, from him who is, and who was, and who is to come; and from the seven spirits which are before his throne;
5 Yuemkamcu kapanuekhaikung, duenae koehoi camin lah kaawm e, talai siangpahrangnaw ka ukkung Jisuh Khrih koehoi e lungmanae hoi roumnae teh nangmouh koe awm yungyoe seh. Maimouh lungpataw niteh amae thi hoi maimae yonnae pueng na pâsu pouh.
and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first born of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to him who has loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 Pa Cathut hmalah maimanaw hah uknae ram, vaihma lah na hrueng kung koe bawilennae hoi hnotithainae teh a yungyoe awm lawiseh. Amen. (aiōn )
and has made us kings and priests to his God and Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
7 Khenhaw! Bawipa teh tâmai dawk hoi bout a kum han. Hatdawkvah Bawipa kacawknaw ni amamae mit hoi ama teh a hmu awh han. Talai van kaawm e miphun pueng ni Bawipa kecu dawk a lungtabue ratum awh vaiteh a khui awh han. Bokheiyah. Amen.
Behold, he is coming in the clouds; and every eye shall see him, even they who pierced him: and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn because of him. Yes: so let it be.
8 Kaawm lahun e, kaawm tangcoung e hoi bout kaawm hane Athakasaipounge ni, kai teh Alpha hoi Omega, a kamtawngnae hoi a poutnae lah ka o ati.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the Lord, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
9 Jisuh Khrih dawk reithai rucatnae thoseh, a uknaeram hai thoseh, lungsawnae thoseh, nangmouh hoi cungtalah rei coe e lah kaawm e, nangmae hmau kai Jawhan ni Cathut e a lawk hoi Jisuh Khrih hoi kâkuen e lawkpanuesaknae kecu dawkvah Patmos tuilum koe ka pha.
I, John, who am also your brother and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the island called Patmos, for the sake of the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
10 Bawipa e hnin navah, kai teh Muitha dawk ka o lahunnah, mongka lawk patetlah kacaipounge lawk hah hnukkhu lahoi ka thai.
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard a great voice behind me, as of a trumpet,
11 Hote lawk ni, na hmu e hno hah cauk dawk thut nateh Efisa kho, Smirna kho, Pergamos kho, Thiatira kho, Sardis kho, Philadelphia kho hoi Laodicea kho kaawm e kawhmounnaw sari touh koe patawn haw, telah a dei.
saying, What you see, write in a book, and send it to the seven congregations; to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.
12 Hatnavah, kai koe lawk kadeikung hmu hanelah ka kamlang teh ka khet.
And I turned to see the voice which spoke to me, and being turned, I saw seven golden lamps;
13 Hottelah ka khet nah sui hmaiimkhok sari touh hoi hote hmaiim pâhung e naw lungui vah a khokcampha totouh ka phat e hni a kho teh, a lû, a lungtabue dawk sui taisawm kâyeng e tami Capa hoi kâvan e tami buet touh ka hmu.
and, in the midst of the seven lamps, one like a Son of Man, clothed in a long robe, and girded about the breasts with a golden girdle.
14 Ahnie a lû hoi a sam teh tumuen ka pangaw e patetlah hoi tadamtui patetlah a pangaw teh, ahnie a mit teh hmaipalai patetlah ao.
His head, even his hairs, were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 Ahnie a khok teh hmai hoi sôlêi tangcoung e rahum hoi a kâvan teh, ahnie a lawk teh tuipui lawk hoi a kâvan.
and his feet like fine brass, when glowing in a furnace; and his voice as the voice of many waters;
16 Ahnie aranglae kut dawk Âsi sari touh a patuep teh ahnie a kâko dawk hoi a hâ voivang kahran e tahloi a tâco. Ahnie a minhmai teh bahu hoi ka ang e kanî patetlah ao.
and he had in his right hand seven stars, and out of his mouth there went a sharp two-edged sword; and his countenance was as the sun, when he shines in his strength.
17 Ahni hah ka hmu navah, a khok koe ka rawp teh, tami kadout patetlah ka o. Hahoi ahni ni kai dawkvah, aranglae kut a toung teh taket hanh, kai teh ahmaloe poung e hoi a hnukteng poung e lah ka o.
And when I saw him, I fell down at his feet, as dead; and he laid his right hand upon me, and said, Fear not; I am the First and the Last;
18 Kahring e lah ka o. Kai teh yo ka due toe. Hatei khenhaw! kai teh a yungyoe kahring e lah ka o. Duenae hoi duenae kho cabinaw hai kai ni ka kuet. (aiōn , Hadēs )
I am he who lives and was dead; and behold, I am living for ever and ever; and I have the keys of the unseen world, and of death. (aiōn , Hadēs )
19 Hatdawkvah nang ni na hmu tangcoung e naw thoseh, atu na hmu e naw hai thoseh, nâsittouh ao hoehnahlan kaawm hane ka tâcawt han toung e naw hai thoseh thun haw.
Write the things which you see, even those which are, and the things which shall be hereafter.
20 Aranglae ka kut dawk na hmu e Âsi sari touh hoi sui hmaiim sari touh e hrolawk ni a dei ngainae teh Âsi sari touh e teh kawhmounnaw sari touh e kalvantami doeh. Sui hmaiimkhok sari touh e teh kawhmounnaw sari touh e doeh.
As to the hidden meaning of the seven stars, which you see in my right hand, and of the seven lamps of gold: the seven stars are messengers of the seven congregations; and the seven lamps which you see, are seven congregations.
