Otkrivenje 21
1 I vidjeh novo nebo i novu zemlju jer - prvo nebo i prva zemlja uminu; ni mora više nema.
I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.
2 I Sveti grad, novi Jeruzalem, vidjeh: silazi s neba od Boga, opremljen kao zaručnica nakićena za svoga muža.
I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
3 I začujem jak glas s prijestolja: “Evo Šatora Božjeg s ljudima! On će prebivati s njima: oni će biti narod njegov, a on će biti Bog s njima.
I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with people; and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.
4 I otrt će im svaku suzu s očiju te smrti više neće biti, ni tuge, ni jauka, ni boli više neće biti jer - prijašnje uminu.”
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more. The first things have passed away.”
5 Tada Onaj što sjedi na prijestolju reče: “Evo, sve činim novo!” I doda: “Napiši: Ove su riječi vjerne i istinite.”
He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” He said, “Write, for these words of God are faithful and true.”
6 I još mi reče: “Svršeno je! Ja sam Alfa i Omega, Početak i Svršetak! Ja ću žednomu dati s izvora vode života zabadava.
He said to me, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the water of life.
7 To će biti baština pobjednikova. I ja ću njemu biti Bog, a on meni sin.
He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.
9 I dođe jedan od sedam anđela što imaju sedam čaša punih zala konačnih te progovori sa mnom: “Dođi, pokazat ću ti Zaručnicu, Ženu Jaganjčevu!”
One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls which were loaded with the seven last plagues came, and he spoke with me, saying, “Come here. I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.”
10 I prenese me u duhu na goru veliku, visoku i pokaza mi sveti grad Jeruzalem: silazi s neba od Boga,
He carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 sav u slavi Božjoj, blistav poput dragoga kamena, kamena slična kristalnom jaspisu;
having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 okružen zidinama velikim i visokim, sa dvanaest vrata: na vratima dvanaest anđela i napisana imena dvanaest plemena Izraelovih.
having a great and high wall with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 Od istoka vrata troja, od sjevera vrata troja, od juga vrata troja, od zapada vrata troja.
On the east were three gates, and on the north three gates, and on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.
14 Gradske su zidine imale dvanaest temelja, a na njima dvanaest imena dvanaestorice apostola Jaganjčevih.
The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
15 Moj subesjednik imaše mjeru, zlatnu trsku, da izmjeri grad, vrata njegova i zidine.
He who spoke with me had for a measure a golden reed to measure the city, its gates, and its walls.
16 Grad se stere u četvorini: dužina mu jednaka širini. On izmjeri trskom grad: dvanaest tisuća stadija - dužina mu i širina i visina jednaka.
The city is square. Its length is as great as its width. He measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand twelve stadia. Its length, width, and height are equal.
17 Izmjeri i njegove zidine: sto četrdeset i četiri lakta po čovjekovoj mjeri kojom je mjerio anđeo.
Its wall is one hundred forty-four cubits, by the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.
18 Zidine su gradske sagrađene od jaspisa, a sam grad od čistoga zlata, slična čistu staklu.
The construction of its wall was jasper. The city was pure gold, like pure glass.
19 Temelji su gradskih zidina urešeni svakovrsnim dragim kamenjem: prvi je temelj od jaspisa, drugi od safira, treći od kalcedona, četvrti od smaragda,
The foundations of the city’s wall were adorned with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire; the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
20 peti od sardoniksa, šesti od sarda, sedmi od krizolita, osmi od berila, deveti od topaza, deseti od krizopraza, jedanaesti od hijacinta, dvanaesti od ametista.
the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.
21 Dvanaest vrata - dvanaest bisera: svaka od svoga bisera. A gradski trg - čisto zlato, kao prozirno staklo.
The twelve gates were twelve pearls. Each one of the gates was made of one pearl. The street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
22 Hrama u gradu ne vidjeh. Ta Gospod, Bog, Svevladar, hram je njegov - i Jaganjac!
I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
23 I gradu ne treba ni sunca ni mjeseca da mu svijetle. Ta Slava ga Božja obasjala i svjetiljka mu Jaganjac!
The city has no need for the sun or moon to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it and its lamp is the Lamb.
24 Narodi će hoditi u svjetlosti njegovoj, a kraljevi zemaljski u nj donositi slavu svoju.
The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
25 Vrata mu se ne zatvaraju obdan, a noći ondje i nema.
Its gates will in no way be shut by day (for there will be no night there),
26 U nj će se donijeti slava i čast naroda.
and they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it so that they may enter.
27 Ali u nj neće unići ništa nečisto i nijedan tko čini gadost i laž, nego samo oni koji su zapisani u Jaganjčevoj knjizi života.
There will in no way enter into it anything profane, or one who causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
