< Revelation 11 >

1 A reed like a rod was given to me. Someone said, "Rise and measure God's temple, and the altar, and those who worship in it.
وَأُعْطِيتُ عَصَا قِيَاسٍ، وَأُمِرْتُ أَنْ أَقِيسَ هَيْكَلَ اللهِ وَالْمَذْبَحَ، وَأَنْ أُحْصِيَ عَدَدَ الْمُتَعَبِّدِينَ فِيهِ.١
2 Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.
وَقِيلَ لِي: «لا تَقِسِ السَّاحَةَ الْخَارِجِيَّةَ لأَنَّهَا خُصِّصَتْ لِلأُمَمِ، وَسَيَدُوسُونَ الْمَدِينَةَ المُقَدَّسَةَ مُدَّةَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعِينَ شَهْراً،٢
3 I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth."
وَلَكِنِّي سَأَمْنَحُ شَاهِدَيَّ أَنْ يَتَنَبَّآ مُدَّةَ أَلْفٍ وَمِئَتَيْنِ وَسِتِّينَ يَوْماً، وَهُمَا يَلْبَسَانِ ثَوْبَيْنِ مِنَ الْوَبَرِ».٣
4 These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands, standing before the Lord of the earth.
هَذَانِ الشَّاهِدَانِ هُمَا شَجَرَتَا الزَّيْتُونِ وَالْمَنَارَتَانِ الْقَائِمَتَانِ أَمَامَ رَبِّ الأَرْضِ.٤
5 If anyone desires to harm them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their enemies. If anyone desires to harm them, he must be killed in this way.
فَإِذَا حَاوَلَ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَمَسَّهُمَا بِسُوءٍ تَخْرُجُ نَارٌ مِنْ فَمِهِمَا وَتَلْتَهِمُ أَعْدَاءَهُمَا. ذَلِكَ يَجِبُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مَصِيرُ مَنْ يُحَاوِلُ أَنْ يُؤْذِيَهُمَا.٥
6 These have the power to shut up the sky, that it may not rain during the days of their prophecy. They have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.
وَلِلشَّاهِدَيْنِ السُّلْطَةُ أَنْ يُغْلِقَا السَّمَاءَ فَلا تُمْطِرَ طِيلَةَ مُدَّةِ نُبُوءَتِهِمَا، وَأَنْ يُحَوِّلا مِيَاهَ الأَنْهَارِ وَالْبِحَارِ دَماً، وَأَنْ يُنْزِلا الْبَلايَا بِالأَرْضِ، كُلَّمَا أَرَادَا.٦
7 When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos g12)
وَعِنْدَمَا يُكْمِلانِ شَهَادَتَهُمَا يُعْلِنُ الْوَحْشُ الصَّاعِدُ مِنَ الْهَاوِيَةِ الْحَرْبَ عَلَيْهِمَا، وَيَهْزِمُهُمَا وَيَقْتُلُهُمَا (Abyssos g12)٧
8 Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
وَتَبْقَى جُثَّتَاهُمَا مَطْرُوحَتَيْنِ فِي سَاحَةِ الْمَدِينَةِ الْعُظْمَى الَّتِي تَرْمُزُ إِلَيْهَا «سَدُومُ» أَوْ «مِصْرُ»، حَيْثُ صُلِبَ رَبُّهُمَا.٨
9 From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be placed in a tomb.
فَيَرَاهُمَا أُنَاسٌ مِنْ مُخْتَلِفِ الشُّعُوبِ وَالْقَبَائِلِ وَاللُّغَاتِ وَالأُمَمِ، مُدَّةَ ثَلاثَةِ أَيَّامٍ وَنِصْفِ الْيَوْمِ، وَلا يُؤْذَنُ لأَحَدٍ بِدَفْنِهِمَا.٩
10 Those who dwell on the earth rejoice over them, and they will be glad. They will give gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
وَيَشْمَتُ بِهِمَا أَهْلُ الأَرْضِ، فَيَفْرَحُونَ كَأَنَّهُمْ فِي عِيدٍ، وَيَتَبَادَلُونَ الْهَدَايَا، لأَنَّ هَذَيْنِ النَّبِيَّيْنِ كَانَا قَدْ عَذَّبَاهُمْ كَثِيراً.١٠
11 After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them.
وَبَعْدَ أَنْ تَمُرَّ الأَيَّامُ الثَّلاثَةُ وَنِصْفُ الْيَوْمِ يَبْعَثُ اللهُ فِي النَّبِيَّيْنِ رُوحَ الْحَيَاةِ، فَيَنْهَضَانِ وَاقِفَيْنِ، وَيَسْتَوْلِي عَلَى النَّاظِرِينَ إِلَيْهِمَا خَوْفٌ شَدِيدٌ.١١
12 I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here." They went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies saw them.
وَيَدْعُوهُمَا صَوْتٌ عَالٍ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ: «اصْعَدَا إِلَى هُنَا»، فَيَصْعَدَانِ إِلَى السَّمَاءِ فِي سَحَابَةٍ بِمَشْهَدٍ مِنْ أَعْدَائِهِمَا.١٢
13 In that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
وَفِي الْوَقْتِ ذَاتِهِ يَحْدُثُ زِلْزَالٌ عَنِيفٌ يُدَمِّرُ عُشْرَ الْمَدِينَةِ، وَيُهْلِكُ سَبْعَةَ آلافٍ مِنْ سَاكِنِيهَا. فَيَرْتَعِبُ النَّاجُونَ وَيُمَجِّدُونَ إِلهَ السَّمَاءِ.١٣
14 The second woe is past. Look, the third woe comes quickly.
انْقَضَى الْوَيْلُ الثَّانِي، وَهَا هُوَ الثَّالِثُ يَأْتِي سَرِيعاً!١٤
15 The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, "The kingdom of the world now belongs to our Lord and to his Christ, and he will reign forever and ever." (aiōn g165)
وَنَفَخَ الْمَلاكُ السَّابِعُ فِي بُوقِهِ فَسُمِعَتْ أَصْوَاتٌ عَالِيَةٌ فِي السَّمَاءِ تَقُولُ: «قَدْ صَارَ مُلْكُ الْعَالَمِ لِرَبِّنَا وَمَسِيحِهِ. إِنَّهُ يَمْلِكُ إِلَى أَبَدِ الآبِدِينَ». (aiōn g165)١٥
16 The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God's throne, fell on their faces and worshiped God,
فَجَثَا الشُّيُوخُ الأَرْبَعَةُ وَالْعِشْرُونَ الجَالِسُونَ عَلَى عُرُوشِهِمْ فِي حَضْرَةِ اللهِ وَخَرُّوا عَلَى وُجُوهِهِمْ سَاجِدِينَ لِلهِ.١٦
17 saying: "We give you thanks, Lord God Almighty, the one who is and who was; because you have taken your great power, and reigned.
وَقَالُوا: «نَحْمَدُكَ أَيُّهَا الإِلهُ الْقَدِيرُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ، الْكَائِنُ الَّذِي كَانَ، لأَنَّكَ الآنَ قَدْ تَقَلَّدْتَ قُوَّتَكَ الْعُظْمَى وَبَاشَرْتَ مُلْكَكَ.١٧
18 The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your servants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints, and those who fear your name, to the small and the great; and to destroy those who destroy the earth."
غَضِبَتْ الشُّعُوبُ عَلَيْكَ، فَجَاءَ دَوْرُ غَضَبِكَ عَلَيْهِمْ. جَاءَتِ السَّاعَةُ لِيُدَانَ الأَمْوَاتُ، وَتُكَافِئَ عَبِيدَكَ الأَنْبِيَاءَ وَالْقِدِّيسِينَ والْمُتَّقِينَ اسْمَكَ، صِغَاراً وَكِبَاراً، وَتُهْلِكَ الَّذِينَ كَانُوا يُدَمِّرُونَ الأَرْضَ!»١٨
19 God's temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
وَانْفَتَحَ هَيْكَلُ اللهِ فِي السَّمَاءِ، وَظَهَرَ تَابُوتُ الْعَهْدِ فِي دَاخِلِهِ. وَحَدَثَتْ بُرُوقٌ وَأَصْوَاتٌ وَرُعُودٌ وَزَلْزَلَةٌ، وَسَقَطَ بَرَدٌ كَثِيرٌ.١٩
