Revelation 1
1 THE UNVEILING APOCALYPSE OF JESUS CHRIST which God gave him to show to his slaves the things which must soon come to pass; and he sent and made it known by his angel to his slave John.
| ܓܠܝܢܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܕܝܗܒ ܠܗ ܐܠܗܐ ܠܡܚܘܝܘ ܠܥܒܕܘܗܝ ܡܐ ܕܝܗܝܒ ܠܡܗܘܐ ܒܥܓܠ ܘܫܘܕܥ ܟܕ ܫܠܚ ܒܝܕ ܡܠܐܟܗ ܠܥܒܕܗ ܝܘܚܢܢ |
2 He bore witness of the Word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, even of all the things that he saw.
| ܗܘ ܕܐܤܗܕ ܠܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܠܤܗܕܘܬܗ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܟܠ ܡܐ ܕܚܙܐ |
3 Blessed is he who reads, and they who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep what is written in it. FOR THE CRISIS IS AT HAND.
| ܛܘܒܘܗܝ ܠܡܢ ܕܩܪܐ ܘܠܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܫܡܥܝܢ ܡܠܐ ܕܢܒܝܘܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܘܢܛܪܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܟܬܝܒܢ ܒܗ ܙܒܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܩܪܒ |
4 From John to the seven churches that are in Asia the Roman Province. Grace to you, and peace from Him that is and was and is to be, and from the Seven Spirits that are before his throne,
| ܝܘܚܢܢ ܠܫܒܥ ܥܕܬܐ ܕܒܐܤܝܐ ܛܝܒܘܬܐ ܠܟܘܢ ܘܫܠܡܐ ܡܢ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܘܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܘܡܢ ܫܒܥ ܪܘܚܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܩܕܡ ܟܘܪܤܝܗ |
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 has loosed us from our sins in his own blood;
| ܘܡܢ ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ ܤܗܕܐ ܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܒܘܟܪܐ ܕܡܝܬܐ ܘܪܫܐ ܕܡܠܟܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܚܒ ܠܢ ܘܫܪܐ ܠܢ ܡܢ ܚܛܗܝܢ ܒܕܡܗ |
6 and has made us to be a kingdom of priests unto his God and Father; to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever, Amen. (aiōn g165)
| ܘܥܒܕ ܠܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܟܗܢܝܬܐ ܠܐܠܗܐ ܘܐܒܘܗܝ ܘܠܗ ܬܫܒܘܚܬܐ ܘܐܘܚܕܢܐ ܠܥܠܡ ܥܠܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ (aiōn g165) |
7 Behold, he is about to come among the clouds; and every eye will see him, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. So shall it be, Amen.
| ܗܐ ܐܬܐ ܥܡ ܥܢܢܐ ܘܢܚܙܝܢܝܗܝ ܟܠ ܥܝܢܐ ܘܐܦ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܩܪܘܗܝ ܘܢܪܩܕܢ ܥܠܘܗܝ ܟܠ ܫܪܒܬܐ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܐܝܢ ܘܐܡܝܢ |
8 "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
| ܐܢܐ ܐܠܦ ܘܬܘ ܐܡܪ ܡܪܝܐ ܐܠܗܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܘܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘܐ ܘܐܬܐ ܗܘ ܕܐܚܝܕ ܟܠ |
9 I, John, who am your brother and who share with you in the woes and kingdom and stedfastness of Jesus, found myself in the island called Patmos, for the sake of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.
| ܐܢܐ ܝܘܚܢܢ ܗܘ ܐܚܘܟܘܢ ܘܒܪ ܫܘܬܦܟܘܢ ܒܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܘܒܡܤܝܒܪܢܘܬܐ ܕܒܝܫܘܥ ܗܘܝܬ ܒܓܙܪܬܐ ܕܡܬܩܪܝܐ ܦܛܡܘܤ ܡܛܠ ܡܠܬܐ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܘܡܛܠ ܤܗܕܘܬܐ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ |
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard a loud voice behind me, like a trumpet,
| ܘܗܘܝܬ ܒܪܘܚ ܒܝܘܡܐ ܕܚܕܒܫܒܐ ܘܫܡܥܬ ܡܢ ܒܤܬܪܝ ܩܠܐ ܪܒܐ ܐܝܟ ܫܝܦܘܪܐ |
11 saying, "Write in a book what you see, and send it to the seven churches; to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and Sardis and Philadelphia and Laodicea."
| ܕܐܡܪ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܟܬܘܒ ܒܟܬܒܐ ܘܫܕܪ ܠܫܒܥ ܥܕܬܐ ܠܐܦܤܘܤ ܘܠܙܡܘܪܢܐ ܘܠܦܪܓܡܘܤ ܘܠܬܐܘܛܝܪܐ ܘܠܤܪܕܝܤ ܘܠܦܝܠܕܠܦܝܐ ܘܠܠܕܝܩܝܐ |
12 And I turned to see the Voice which was speaking to me, and as I turned I saw seven golden candlesticks;
| ܘܗܦܟܬ ܠܡܕܥ ܩܠܐ ܐܝܢܐ ܕܡܠܠ ܥܡܝ ܘܟܕ ܥܛܦܬ ܚܙܝܬ ܫܒܥ ܡܢܪܢ ܕܕܗܒܐ |
13 and in the midst of the candlesticks One like to a son of man, clothed with a robe down to the feet, and with a golden girdle round his breast.
| ܘܒܡܨܥܬܐ ܕܡܢܪܬܐ ܐܝܟ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܒܪܢܫܐ ܘܠܒܝܫ ܐܦܘܕܐ ܘܐܤܝܪ ܨܝܕ ܬܕܘܗܝ ܐܤܪܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ |
14 His head and his hair were as white as wool, as white as snow; his eyes were like a flame of fire,
| ܪܫܗ ܕܝܢ ܘܤܥܪܗ ܚܘܪ ܐܝܟ ܥܡܪܐ ܘܐܝܟ ܬܠܓܐ ܘܥܝܢܘܗܝ ܐܝܟ ܫܠܗܒܝܬܐ ܕܢܘܪܐ |
15 and his feet like burnished brass, as if molten in a furnace; and his voice like the voice of many waters.
| ܘܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܒܕܡܘܬܐ ܕܢܚܫܐ ܠܒܢܝܐ ܕܡܚܡ ܒܐܬܘܢܐ ܘܩܠܗ ܐܝܟ ܩܠܐ ܕܡܝܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ |
16 In his right hand he held seven stars; and out of mouth went a sharp, two-edged sword, and his face was as the sun shining in his strength.
| ܘܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܒܐܝܕܗ ܕܝܡܝܢܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܟܘܟܒܝܢ ܘܡܢ ܦܘܡܗ ܢܦܩܐ ܪܘܡܚܐ ܚܪܝܦܬܐ ܘܚܙܬܗ ܐܝܟ ܫܡܫܐ ܡܚܘܝܐ ܒܚܝܠܗ |
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as one dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying. "Fear not; I am the first and the last, and the Living One.
| ܘܟܕ ܚܙܝܬܗ ܢܦܠܬ ܥܠ ܪܓܠܘܗܝ ܐܝܟ ܡܝܬܐ ܘܤܡ ܥܠܝ ܐܝܕܗ ܕܝܡܝܢܐ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܠܐ ܬܕܚܠ ܕܐܢܐ ܐܝܬܝ ܩܕܡܝܐ ܘܐܚܪܝܐ |
18 I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore; and hold the keys of death and of Hades. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
| ܘܕܚܝ ܘܕܡܝܬܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܘܗܐ ܚܝܐ ܐܝܬܝ ܠܥܠܡ ܥܠܡܝܢ ܐܡܝܢ ܘܐܝܬ ܠܝ ܩܠܝܕܐ ܕܡܘܬܐ ܘܕܫܝܘܠ (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86) |
19 So write the things which you saw, and the things which are, and the things that will come to pass hereafter.
| ܟܬܘܒ ܗܟܝܠ ܡܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܘܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܐܝܬܝܗܝܢ ܘܥܬܝܕܢ ܠܡܗܘܐ ܒܬܪ ܗܠܝܢ |
20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks, is this. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven candlesticks are the seven churches."
| ܐܪܙܐ ܕܫܒܥܐ ܟܘܟܒܝܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܥܠ ܝܡܝܢܝ ܘܫܒܥ ܡܢܪܬܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܟܘܟܒܝܢ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܫܒܥ ܥܕܬܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܘܡܢܪܬܐ ܫܒܥ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܫܒܥ ܐܢܝܢ ܥܕܬܐ |
