Otkrivenje 16
1 I začujem iz hrama jak glas koji viknu sedmorici anđela: “Hajdete, izlijte sedam čaša gnjeva Božjega na zemlju!”
And I heard a voice, which said to the seven angels: Go forth, and pour those seven cups of the wrath of God upon the earth.
2 Ode prvi i izli svoju čašu na zemlju. I pojavi se čir, koban i bolan, na ljudima što nose žig Zvijerin i klanjaju se kipu njezinu.
And the first went, and poured his cup upon the earth; and there was a malignant and painful ulcer upon those men who had the mark of the beast of prey, and who worshipped its image.
3 Drugi izli svoju čašu na more. I ono posta krv kao krv mrtvačeva te izginu sve živo u moru.
And the second angel poured his cup upon the sea; and it became blood, like that of a dead person; and every living soul of things in the sea, died.
4 Treći izli svoju čašu na rijeke i izvore voda. I postadoše krv.
And the third angel poured his cup upon the rivers and the fountains of water; and they became blood.
5 I začujem anđela voda gdje govori: “Pravedan si, Ti koji jesi i koji bijaše, Sveti, što si tako dosudio!
And I heard the angel of the waters say: Righteous art thou, who art and who wast, and art holy; because thou hast done this judgment.
6 Oni su prolili krv svetih i proroka i stoga ih krvlju napajaš! Zavrijedili su!”
For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets; and thou hast given them blood to drink, for they deserve it.
7 I začujem žrtvenik kako govori: “Da, Gospode, Bože, Svevladaru! Istiniti su i pravedni sudovi tvoji!”
And I heard one from the altar say: Yes, Lord God Almighty: true and righteous is thy judgment.
8 Četvrti izli svoju čašu na sunce. I suncu je dano da pali ljude ognjem.
And the fourth poured his cup upon the sun: and it was permitted him, to scorch men with fire.
9 I silna je žega palila ljude te su hulili ime Boga koji ima vlast nad tim zlima, ali se ne obratiše da mu slavu dadu.
And men were scorched with great heat; and men blasphemed the name of God, who hath authority over these plagues; and they repented not, to give glory to him.
10 Peti izli svoju čašu na prijestolje Zvijeri. I kraljevstvo joj prekriše tmine. Ljudi su grizli jezike od muke
And the fifth poured his cup on the throne of the beast of prey; and his kingdom became darkness; and they gnawed their tongues, from pain;
11 i hulili Boga nebeskoga zbog muka i čireva, ali se ne obratiše od djela svojih.
and they blasphemed the God of heaven, on account of their pains and their ulcers, and did not repent of their deeds.
12 Šesti izli svoju čašu na Eufrat, rijeku veliku. I presahnu voda te načini prolaz kraljima s istoka sunčeva.
And the sixth poured his cup upon the great river Euphrates; and its waters dried up, so that a way might be prepared for the kings from the rising of the sun.
13 I vidjeh: iz usta Zmajevih i iz usta Zvijerinih i iz usta Lažnoga proroka izlaze tri duha nečista, kao žabe.
And I saw issuing from the mouth of the dragon, and from the mouth of the beast of prey, and from the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs:
14 To su dusi zloduha što čine znamenja, a pođoše sabrati kraljeve svega svijeta na rat za Dan veliki Boga Svevladara.
(for they are the spirits of demons, who work prodigies; ) and they go forth to all the kings of all the habitable world, to gather them to the battle of the great day of God Almighty.
15 Evo dolazim kao tat! Blažen onaj koji bdije i čuva haljine svoje da ne ide gol te mu se ne vidi sramota!
(And lo, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments; lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.)
16 I skupiše ih na mjesto koje se hebrejski zove Harmagedon.
And they collected them together in a place called, in Hebrew, Armageddon.
17 I sedmi izli svoju čašu na zrak. Uto iz hrama, s prijestolja, iziđe jak glas i viknu: “Svršeno je!”
And the seventh poured his cup on the air; and there issued a loud voice from the temple, from the throne, which said: It is done!
18 I udariše munje i glasovi i gromovi i nasta potres velik, kakva ne bijaše otkako je ljudi - tako bijaše silan potres taj.
And there were lightnings, and thunders, and voices; and there was a great earthquake, the like of which there was never, since men were on the earth, such an earthquake, and so great.
19 I prasnu natroje grad veliki i gradovi naroda padoše. Spomenu se Bog Babilona velikoga da mu dade piti iz čaše vina gnjevne srdžbe Božje.
And the great city became three parts. And the city of the nations fell; and Babylon the great was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the heat of his wrath.
20 I pobjegoše svi otoci, iščezoše gore,
And every island fled away; and the mountains were not found.
21 a iz neba se spusti na ljude tuča velika, poput talenta. Ljudi su hulili Boga zbog zla tuče jer zlo njezino bijaše silno veliko.
And a great hail, as it were of a talent weight, fell from heaven upon men: and the men blasphemed God, on account of the plague of hail; for the plague of it was very great.
