Revelation 18
1 After this I saw another angel descending from heaven with great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his glory.
In po tem sem videl angela idočega dol z nebá, imajočega oblast veliko; in zemlja se je razsvetlila od slave njegove.
2 And he cried out in a mighty voice: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a lair for demons and a haunt for every unclean spirit, every unclean bird, and every detestable beast.
In zavpije v moči z glasom velikim govoreč: Padel je, padel Babilon véliki, in postal je prebivališče hudičev, in ječa vseh nečistih duhov, in ječa vseh nečistih in sovraženih tičev.
3 All the nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her immorality. The kings of the earth were immoral with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown wealthy from the extravagance of her luxury.”
Ker od vina omotnega kurbarije njene so pili vsi narodi, in kralji zemeljski so se kurbali z njo; in trgovci zemljé so obogateli od premoči njene.
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “Come out of her, My people, so that you will not share in her sins or contract any of her plagues.
In slišal sem drug glas z neba govoreč: Izidite iz nje, ljudstvo moje, da se ne udeležite grehov njenih, in da ne dobite od njenih šib;
5 For her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
Kajti grehi njeni so dospeli do neba, in spomnil se je Bog krivic njenih.
6 Give back to her as she has done to others; pay her back double for what she has done; mix her a double portion in her own cup.
Vrnite ji, kakor je tudi ona vam vračala, in podvojite ji dvojno po delih njenih; v čaši, v kateri je mešala, mešajte ji dvojno.
7 As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury, give her the same measure of torment and grief. In her heart she says, ‘I sit as queen; I am not a widow and will never see grief.’
Kolikor se je poveličala in preširno živela, toliko ji dajte muke in žalosti: ker v prsih svojih govori: Kraljica sedim, in vdova nisem, in žalosti ne bodem videla,
8 Therefore her plagues will come in one day— death and grief and famine— and she will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.”
Za to pridejo v enem dnevi šibe njene, smrt in žalost in lakot; in v ognji se bode sežgala; kajti močan je Gospod Bog, ki jo sodi.
9 Then the kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived in luxury with her will weep and wail at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her.
In jokali bodo in žalovali za njo kralji zemlje, kateri so se kurbali z njo in preširno živeli, ko bodo videli dim požara njenega,
10 In fear of her torment, they will stand at a distance and cry out: “Woe, woe to the great city, the mighty city of Babylon! For in a single hour your judgment has come.”
Od daleč stoječ v strahu pred muko njeno, govoreč: Gorjé, gorjé, mesto veliko, Babilon, mesto močno, ker v eni uri je prišla sodba tvoja.
11 And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, because there is no one left to buy their cargo—
In trgovci zemlje jokajo in žalujejo za njo, ker blaga njih nihče več ne kupuje;
12 cargo of gold, silver, precious stones, and pearls; of fine linen, purple, silk, and scarlet; of all kinds of citron wood and every article of ivory, precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble;
Blaga v zlatu in srebru in drazem kamenji in biserji in bisu in bagru in svili in škrlatu, in vsakoterega lesa vonjavega in vsakoterega orodja slonokoščenega, in vsakoterega orodja iz lesa predrazega in brona in železa in mramorja;
13 of cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, and frankincense; of wine, olive oil, fine flour, and wheat; of cattle, sheep, horses, and chariots; of slaves and souls of men.
In sladke skorje in dišav in mire in kadila, in vina in olja, in bele moke in pšenice, in goved in ovác, in kónj in vóz, in teles in duš človeških.
14 And they will say: “The fruit of your soul’s desire has departed from you; all your luxury and splendor have vanished, never to be seen again.”
In sadje poželenja duše tvoje je odšlo od tebe, in vse veličastvo in vsa sijajnost je odšla od tebe, in večjih ne najdeš.
15 The merchants who sold these things and grew their wealth from her will stand at a distance, in fear of her torment. They will weep and mourn,
Trgovci s tem, ki so obogateli od nje, stali bodo od daleč v strahu pred muko njeno, jokajoč in žalujoč in govoreč:
16 saying: “Woe, woe to the great city, clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!
Gorje, gorje, mesto véliko, oblečeno z bisom in bagrom in škrlatom, in pozlačeno sè zlatom in dragim kamenjem in biserji; kajti v eni uri je opustošeno toliko bogastvo!
17 For in a single hour such fabulous wealth has been destroyed!” Every shipmaster, passenger, and sailor, and all who make their living from the sea, will stand at a distance
In vsi krmarji, in vsi na ladijah, druhal in brodniki in kateri obdeljujejo morje, stali so od daleč,
18 and cry out at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her. “What city was ever like this great city?” they will exclaim.
In vpili so videč dim požara njenega, govoreč: Katero je enako mestu vélikemu?
19 Then they will throw dust on their heads as they weep and mourn and cry out: “Woe, woe to the great city, where all who had ships on the sea were enriched by her wealth! For in a single hour she has been destroyed.”
In vrgli so prahú na glave svoje in vpili so jokajoč in žalujoč, govoreč: Gorje, gorje, mesto véliko, v katerem so obogateli vsi, kateri imajo ladije na morji, od dragocenosti njegove; kajti v eni uri se je opustošilo.
20 Rejoice over her, O heaven, O saints and apostles and prophets, because God has pronounced for you His judgment against her.
Veséli se njega, nebo, in sveti aposteljni in preroki, ker je Bog sodil sodbo vašo nad njim.
21 Then a mighty angel picked up a stone the size of a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying: “With such violence the great city of Babylon will be cast down, never to be seen again.
In dvignil je en angelj, močán, kamen, velik kakor mlinski kamen in vrgel v morje, govoreč: Tako v napadu bode vržen Babilon, mesto véliko, in ne najde se več.
22 And the sound of harpists and musicians, of flute players and trumpeters, will never ring out in you again. Nor will any craftsmen of any trade be found in you again, nor the sound of a millstone be heard in you again.
In glas citralcev in godcev in piskačev in trobentačev naj se ne čuje več v tebi, in noben umeteljnik kake umeteljnosti naj se ne najde več v tebi, in mlina glas naj se v tebi več ne čuje,
23 The light of a lamp will never shine in you again, and the voices of a bride and bridegroom will never call out in you again. For your merchants were the great ones of the earth, because all the nations were deceived by your sorcery.”
In svetilnice luč naj ne sveti več v tebi, in glas ženina in neveste naj se ne čuje več v tebi; ker trgovci tvoji bili so velikaši zemljé, ker v čarovniji tvoji tavali so vsi narodi.
24 And there was found in her the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who had been slain on the earth.
In v njem se je našla kri prerokov in svetnikov in vseh zaklanih na zemlji.
