Revelation 1
1 THE Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
Otkrivenje Isusa Krista: njemu ga dade Bog da on pokaže slugama svojim ono što se ima dogoditi ubrzo. I on to označi poslavši svog anđela sluzi svomu Ivanu
2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
koji posvjedoči za riječ Božju i za svjedočanstvo Isusa Krista - za sve što vidje.
3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
Blago onomu koji čita i onima što slušaju riječi ovog proroštva te čuvaju što je u njem napisano. Jer vrijeme je blizu!
4 JOHN to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
Ivan sedmerim crkvama u Aziji. Milost vam i mir od Onoga koji jest i koji bijaše i koji dolazi i od sedam duhova što su pred Prijestoljem njegovim
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
i od Isusa Krista, Svjedoka vjernoga, Prvorođenca od mrtvih, Vladara nad kraljevima zemaljskim. Njemu koji nas ljubi, koji nas krvlju svojom otkupi od naših grijeha
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
te nas učini kraljevstvom, svećenicima Bogu i Ocu svojemu: Njemu slava i vlast u vijeke vjekova! Amen! (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Gle, dolazi s oblacima i gledat će ga svako oko, svi koji su ga proboli, i naricat će nad njim sva plemena zemaljska. Da! Amen.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Ja sam Alfa i Omega, govori Gospodin Bog - Onaj koji jest i koji bijaše i koji dolazi, Svevladar.
9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Ja, Ivan, brat vaš i suzajedničar u nevolji, kraljevstvu i postojanosti, u Isusu: bijah na otoku zvanu Patmos radi riječi Božje i svjedočanstva Isusova.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
Zanijeh se u duhu u dan Gospodnji i začuh iza sebe jak glas, kao glas trublje.
11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
Govoraše: “Što vidiš, napiši u knjigu i pošalji sedmerim crkvama: U Efez, Smirnu, Pergam, Tijatiru, Sard, Filadelfiju, Laodiceju.”
12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
Okrenuh se da vidim glas koji govoraše sa mnom. I okrenuvši se, vidjeh sedam zlatnih svijećnjaka,
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
a posred svijećnjaka netko kao Sin Čovječji, odjeven u dugu haljinu, oko prsiju opasan zlatnim pojasom;
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
glava mu i vlasi bijele poput bijele vune, poput snijega, a oči mu kao plamen ognjeni;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
noge mu nalik mjedi uglađenoj, kao u peći užarenoj, a glas mu kao šum voda mnogih;
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
u desnici mu sedam zvijezda, iz usta mu izlazi mač dvosječan, oštar, a lice mu kao kad sunce sjaji u svoj svojoj snazi.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Kad ga vidjeh, padoh mu k nogama kao mrtav. A on stavi na me desnicu govoreći: “Ne boj se! Ja sam Prvi i Posljednji,
19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
Napiši dakle što si vidio: ono što jest i što se ima dogoditi poslije.
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 which thou sawest are the seven churches.
Glede tajne onih sedam zvijezda koje vidje u mojoj desnici i sedam zlatnih svijećnjaka: sedam zvijezda anđeli su sedam crkava, sedam svijećnjaka sedam je crkava.”
