Revelation 1
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ that God gave him to show his bondmen what must happen quickly. And he signified it, having sent by his agent to his bondman John
LA revelación de Jesucristo, que Dios le dió, para manifestar á sus siervos las cosas que deben suceder presto; y [la] declaró, enviándo[la] por su ángel á Juan su siervo,
2 who testified the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as many things as he saw.
El cual ha dado testimonio de la palabra de Dios, y del testimonio de Jesucristo, y de todas las cosas que ha visto.
3 Blessed is he who reads, and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and who keep the things written in it, for the time is near.
Bienaventurado el que lee, y los que oyen las palabras de esta profecía, y guardan las cosas en ella escritas: porque el tiempo está cerca.
4 John, to the seven congregations in Asia: Grace to you and peace from God, who is and who was and who is coming, and from the seven Spirits that are before his throne,
Juan á las siete iglesias que están en Asia: Gracia [sea] con vosotros, y paz del que es y que era y que ha de venir, y de los siete Espíritus que están delante de su trono;
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us and washed us from our sins by his blood
Y de Jesucristo, el testigo fiel, el primogénito de los muertos, y príncipe de los reyes de la tierra. Al que nos amó, y nos ha lavado de nuestros pecados con su sangre,
6 and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and Father, to him is the glory and the dominion into the ages of the ages. Truly. (aiōn g165)
Y nos ha hecho reyes y sacerdotes para Dios y su Padre; á él [sea] gloria é imperio para siempre jamás. Amén. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he comes with the clouds and every eye will see him, even the men who pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth will wail against him. Yea, Truly.
He aquí que viene con las nubes, y todo ojo le verá, y los que le traspasaron; y todos los linajes de la tierra se lamentarán sobre él. Así sea. Amén.
8 I am the Alpha and the Omega, says the Lord, the God who is and who was and who is coming, the Almighty.
Yo soy el Alpha y la Omega, principio y fin, dice el Señor, que es y que era y que ha de venir, el Todopoderoso.
9 I John, your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance in Christ Jesus, happened to be on the isle that is called Patmos because of the word of God, and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Yo Juan, vuestro hermano, y participante en la tribulación y en el reino, y en la paciencia de Jesucristo, estaba en la isla que es llamada Patmos, por la palabra de Dios y el testimonio de Jesucristo.
10 I became in spirit on the Lord's day and I heard behind me a great voice like a trumpet
Yo fuí en el Espíritu en el día del Señor, y oí detrás de mí una gran voz como de trompeta,
11 saying, What thou see, write in a book and send to the seven congregations: to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.
Que decía: Yo soy el Alpha y Omega, el primero y el último. Escribe en un libro lo que ves, y envía[lo] á las siete iglesias que están en Asia; á Efeso, y á Smirna, y á Pérgamo, y á Tiatira, y á Sardis, y á Filadelfia, y á Laodicea.
12 And I turned there to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands.
Y me volví á ver la voz que hablaba conmigo: y vuelto, vi siete candeleros de oro;
13 And in the midst of the seven lampstands, resembling a son of man, he who was clothed down to the foot, and girded about with a golden belt at the breasts.
Y en medio de los siete candeleros, uno semejante al Hijo del hombre, vestido de una ropa que llegaba hasta los pies, y ceñido por los pechos con una cinta de oro.
14 And his head and hair were white as wool, white as snow, and his eyes as a flame of fire,
Y su cabeza y sus cabellos eran blancos como la lana blanca, como la nieve; y sus ojos como llama de fuego;
15 and his feet resembling highly refined metal, as in a furnace having been fiery hot, and his voice as the sound of many waters,
Y sus pies semejantes al latón fino, ardientes como en un horno; y su voz como ruido de muchas aguas.
16 and having in his right hand seven stars, and a sharp two-edged sword coming out of his mouth. And the sight of him was as the sun shines in its strength.
Y tenía en su diestra siete estrellas: y de su boca salía una espada aguda de dos filos. Y su rostro era como el sol cuando resplandece en su fuerza.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying, Fear not, I am the first and the last,
Y cuando yo le vi, caí como muerto á sus pies. Y él puso su diestra sobre mí, diciéndome: No temas: yo soy el primero y el último;
19 Therefore write the things that thou saw, and things that are, and things that are going to happen after these things.
Escribe las cosas que has visto, y las que son, y las que han de ser después de éstas:
20 The mystery of the seven stars that thou saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: the seven stars are agents of the seven congregations, and the seven lampstands that thou saw are the seven congregations.
El misterio de las siete estrellas que has visto en mi diestra, y los siete candeleros de oro. Las siete estrellas son los ángeles de las siete iglesias; y los siete candeleros que has visto, son las siete iglesias.
