< Otkrivenje 11 >
1 I dana mi je trska slična palici i rečeno mi je: “Ustani i izmjeri hram Božji i žrtvenik i poklonike u njemu!
A reed like a rod was given to me. Someone said, “Rise and measure God’s temple, and the altar, and those who worship in it.
2 Vanjsko dvorište hrama mimoiđi, ne mjeri ga jer je dano poganima: gazit će svetim gradom četrdeset i dva mjeseca.
Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don’t measure it, for it has been given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.
3 I ja ću poslati dva svoja svjedoka da, obučeni u kostrijet, prorokuju tisuću dvjesta i šezdeset dana.
I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”
4 Oni su dvije masline i dva svijećnjaka što stoje pred Gospodarom zemlje.
These are the two olive trees and the two lamp stands, standing before the Lord of the earth.
5 Ako im tko hoće nauditi, oganj suče iz usta njihovih i proždire njihove neprijatelje. Doista, htjedne li im tko nauditi, tako treba da pogine.
If anyone desires to harm them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their enemies. If anyone desires to harm them, he must be killed in this way.
6 Oni imaju vlast zaključati nebo da ne pada kiša dok prorokuju; imaju vlast pretvoriti vode u krv i udariti zemlju kojim god zlom kad god htjednu.
These have the power to shut up the sky, that it may not rain during the days of their prophecy. They have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.
7 A kada dovrše svoje svjedočanstvo, Zvijer koja izlazi iz Bezdana zaratit će s njima, pobijediti ih i ubiti. (Abyssos )
When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos )
8 I njihova će trupla ležati na trgu grada velikoga koji se duhovno zove Sodoma i Egipat, gdje je i Gospodin njihov raspet.
Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
9 Ljudi iz svih puka i plemena i jezika i naroda gledat će njihova trupla tri i pol dana i neće dopustiti da im se trupla u grob polože.
From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations, people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
10 Pozemljari će se radovati i veseliti zbog njihove nesreće i darivati jedan drugoga jer su ta dva proroka zadavala muku pozemljarima.
Those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, and they will be glad. They will give gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
11 Ali nakon tri i pol dana duh životni od Boga uđe u njih i stadoše na noge te strah velik obuze one koji ih promatrahu.
After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them.
12 I začuše glas s neba silan: “Uziđite ovamo!” I uziđoše na oblaku u nebo na očigled svojih neprijatelja.
I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” They went up into heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.
13 U taj čas nasta velik potres: pade desetina grada, a u potresu poginu sedam tisuća ljudi. Preživjele spopade strah te proslaviše Boga nebeskoga.
In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 Drugi Jao prođe. Evo, treći Jao dolazi ubrzo!
The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe comes quickly.
15 I sedmi anđeo zatrubi. I na nebu odjeknuše silni glasovi: “Uspostavljeno je nad svijetom kraljevstvo Gospodara našega i Pomazanika njegova i kraljevat će u vijeke vjekova!” (aiōn )
The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!” (aiōn )
16 Tada dvadeset i četiri starješine, što pred Bogom sjedoše na prijestolja,
The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God’s throne, fell on their faces and worshiped God,
17 padoše ničice i pokloniše se Bogu govoreći. “Zahvaljujemo ti, Gospodaru, Bože, Svevladaru, koji jesi i koji bijaše, zato što uze u ruke moć svoju veliku i zakralji se!
saying: “We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and reigned.
18 Gnjevili se narodi, ali dođe srdžba tvoja i čas da se sudi mrtvima i naplata dade slugama tvojim prorocima i svetima i svima koji se boje imena tvojega, malima i velikima; i da se unište oni koji kvare zemlju.”
The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your bondservants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints and those who fear your name, to the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”
19 I otvori se hram Božji na nebu i pokaza se Kovčeg saveza njegova u hramu njegovu te udare munje i glasovi i gromovi i potres i tuča velika.
God’s temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
