Revelation 1
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to make known to his servants the things which must shortly come to pass: and signified, sending by his angel to his servant John,
Revelación de Jesucristo, que Dios, para manifestar a sus siervos las cosas que pronto deben suceder, anunció y explicó, por medio de su ángel, a su siervo Juan;
2 Who hath given testimony to the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, what things soever he hath seen.
el cual testifica la Palabra de Dios y el testimonio de Jesucristo, todo lo cual ha visto.
3 Blessed is he, that readeth and heareth the words of this prophecy; and keepeth those things which are written in it; for the time is at hand.
Bienaventurado el que lee y los que escuchan las palabras de esta profecía y guardan las cosas en ella escritas; pues el momento está cerca.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia. Grace be unto you and peace from him that is, and that was, and that is to come, and from the seven spirits which are before his throne,
Juan a las siete Iglesias que están en Asia: gracia a vosotros y paz de Aquel que es, y que era, y que viene; y de los siete Espíritus que están delante de su trono;
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth, who hath loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
y de Jesucristo, el testigo fiel, el primogénito de los muertos y el Soberano de los reyes de la tierra. A Aquel que nos ama, y que nos ha lavado de nuestros pecados con su sangre,
6 And hath made us a kingdom, and priests to God and his Father, to him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
e hizo de nosotros un reino y sacerdotes para el Dios y Padre suyo; a Él sea la gloria y el imperio por los siglos de los siglos. Amén. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they also that pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth shall bewail themselves because of him. Even so. Amen.
Ved, viene con las nubes, y le verán todos los ojos, y aun los que le traspasaron; y harán luto por Él todas las tribus de la tierra. Sí, así sea.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
“Yo soy el Alfa y la Omega”, dice el Señor Dios, el que es, y que era, y que viene, el Todopoderoso.
9 I John, your brother and your partner in tribulation, and in the kingdom, and patience in Christ Jesus, was in the island, which is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus.
Yo Juan, hermano vuestro y copartícipe en la tribulación y el reino y la paciencia en Jesús, estaba en la isla llamada Patmos, a causa de la palabra de Dios y del testimonio de Jesús.
10 I was in the spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
Me hallé en espíritu en el día del Señor, y oí detrás de mí una voz fuerte como de trompeta,
11 Saying: What thou seest, write in a book, and send to the seven churches which are in Asia, to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamus, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.
que decía: “Lo que vas a ver escríbelo en un libro, y envíalo a las siete Iglesias: A Éfeso, a Esmirna, a Pérgamo, a Tiatira, a Sardes, a Filadelfia y a Laodicea”.
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks:
Me volví para ver la voz que hablaba conmigo. Y vuelto, vi siete candelabros de oro,
13 And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, one like to the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
y en medio de los candelabros, alguien como Hijo de hombre, vestido de ropaje talar, y ceñido el pecho con un ceñidor de oro.
14 And his head and his hairs were white, as white wool, and as snow, and his eyes were as a flame of fire,
Su cabeza y sus cabellos eran blancos como la lana blanca, como la nieve; sus ojos como llama de fuego;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as in a burning furnace. And his voice as the sound of many waters.
sus pies semejantes a bronce bruñido al rojo vivo como en una fragua; y su voz como voz de muchas aguas.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came out a sharp two edged sword: and his face was as the sun shineth in his power.
Tenía en su mano derecha siete estrellas; y de su boca salía una espada aguda de dos filos; y su aspecto era como el sol cuando brilla en toda su fuerza.
17 And when I had seen 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,
Cuando le vi, caí a sus pies como muerto; pero Él puso su diestra sobre mí y dijo: “No temas; Yo soy el primero y el último,
19 Write therefore the things which thou hast seen, and which are, and which must be done hereafter.
Escribe, pues lo que hayas visto; lo que es, y lo que debe suceder después de esto.
20 The mystery of the seven stars, which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. And the seven candlesticks are the seven churches.
En cuanto al misterio de las siete estrellas, que has visto en mi diestra, y los siete candelabros de oro: las siete estrellas son los ángeles de las siete Iglesias, y los siete candelabros son siete Iglesias”.
