Otkrivenje 1
1 Otkrivenje Isusa Krista: njemu ga dade Bog da on pokaže slugama svojim ono što se ima dogoditi ubrzo. I on to označi poslavši svog anđela sluzi svomu Ivanu
The Revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave him so that his servants might have knowledge of the things which will quickly take place: and he sent and made it clear by his angel to his servant John;
2 koji posvjedoči za riječ Božju i za svjedočanstvo Isusa Krista - za sve što vidje.
Who gave witness of the word of God, and of the witness of Jesus Christ, even of all the things which he saw.
3 Blago onomu koji čita i onima što slušaju riječi ovog proroštva te čuvaju što je u njem napisano. Jer vrijeme je blizu!
A blessing be on the reader, and on those who give ear to the prophet's words, and keep the things which he has put in the book: for the time is near.
4 Ivan sedmerim crkvama u Aziji. Milost vam i mir od Onoga koji jest i koji bijaše i koji dolazi i od sedam duhova što su pred Prijestoljem njegovim
John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him who is and was and is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his high seat;
5 i od Isusa Krista, Svjedoka vjernoga, Prvorođenca od mrtvih, Vladara nad kraljevima zemaljskim. Njemu koji nas ljubi, koji nas krvlju svojom otkupi od naših grijeha
And from Jesus Christ, the true witness, the first to come back from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who had love for us and has made us clean from our sins by his blood;
6 te nas učini kraljevstvom, svećenicima Bogu i Ocu svojemu: Njemu slava i vlast u vijeke vjekova! Amen! (aiōn g165)
And has made us to be a kingdom and priests to his God and Father; to him let glory and power be given for ever and ever. So be it. (aiōn g165)
7 Gle, dolazi s oblacima i gledat će ga svako oko, svi koji su ga proboli, i naricat će nad njim sva plemena zemaljska. Da! Amen.
See, he comes with the clouds, and every eye will see him, and those by whom he was wounded; and all the tribes of the earth will be sorrowing because of him. Yes, so be it.
8 Ja sam Alfa i Omega, govori Gospodin Bog - Onaj koji jest i koji bijaše i koji dolazi, Svevladar.
I am the First and the Last, says the Lord God who is and was and is to come, the Ruler of all.
9 Ja, Ivan, brat vaš i suzajedničar u nevolji, kraljevstvu i postojanosti, u Isusu: bijah na otoku zvanu Patmos radi riječi Božje i svjedočanstva Isusova.
I, John, your brother, who have a part with you in the trouble and the kingdom and the quiet strength of Jesus, was in the island which is named Patmos, for the word of God and the witness of Jesus.
10 Zanijeh se u duhu u dan Gospodnji i začuh iza sebe jak glas, kao glas trublje.
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and a great voice at my back, as of a horn, came to my ears,
11 Govoraše: “Što vidiš, napiši u knjigu i pošalji sedmerim crkvama: U Efez, Smirnu, Pergam, Tijatiru, Sard, Filadelfiju, Laodiceju.”
Saying, What you see, put in a book, and send it to the seven churches; to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamos and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.
12 Okrenuh se da vidim glas koji govoraše sa mnom. I okrenuvši se, vidjeh sedam zlatnih svijećnjaka,
And turning to see the voice which said these words to me, I saw seven gold vessels with lights burning in them;
13 a posred svijećnjaka netko kao Sin Čovječji, odjeven u dugu haljinu, oko prsiju opasan zlatnim pojasom;
And in the middle of them one like a son of man, clothed with a robe down to his feet, and with a band of gold round his breasts.
14 glava mu i vlasi bijele poput bijele vune, poput snijega, a oči mu kao plamen ognjeni;
And his head and his hair were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 noge mu nalik mjedi uglađenoj, kao u peći užarenoj, a glas mu kao šum voda mnogih;
And his feet like polished brass, as if it had been burned in a fire; and his voice was as the sound of great waters.
16 u desnici mu sedam zvijezda, iz usta mu izlazi mač dvosječan, oštar, a lice mu kao kad sunce sjaji u svoj svojoj snazi.
And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword: and his face was like the sun shining in its strength.
17 Kad ga vidjeh, padoh mu k nogama kao mrtav. A on stavi na me desnicu govoreći: “Ne boj se! Ja sam Prvi i Posljednji,
And when I saw him, I went down on my face at his feet as one dead. And he put his right hand on me, saying, Have no fear; I am the first and the last and the Living one;
19 Napiši dakle što si vidio: ono što jest i što se ima dogoditi poslije.
Put in writing, then, the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will be after these;
20 Glede tajne onih sedam zvijezda koje vidje u mojoj desnici i sedam zlatnih svijećnjaka: sedam zvijezda anđeli su sedam crkava, sedam svijećnjaka sedam je crkava.”
The secret of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and of the seven gold vessels with burning lights. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven lights are the seven churches.
