Revelation 1
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to point out unto his servants the things which must needs come to pass with speed, —and he shewed them by signs, sending through his messenger, unto his servant John;
Apocalypsis Iesu Christi, quam dedit illi Deus palam facere servis suis, quæ oportet fieri cito: et significavit, mittens per Angelum suum servo suo Ioanni,
2 who bare witness as to the word of God, and the witness of Jesus Christ, —whatsoever things he saw.
qui testimonium perhibuit verbo Dei, et testimonium Iesu Christi, quæcumque vidit.
3 Happy! he that readeth, and they who hear, the words of the prophecy, and keep the things, therein, written; for, the season, is, near.
Beatus, qui legit, et audit verba prophetiæ huius: et servat ea, quæ in ea scripta sunt: tempus enim prope est.
4 John, unto the Seven Assemblies which are in Asia, Favour to you, and peace, from—Him who Is, and who Was, and who is Coming, and from—The Seven Spirits which are before his throne,
Ioannes septem Ecclesiis, quæ sunt in Asia. Gratia vobis, et pax ab eo, qui est, et qui erat, et qui venturus est: et a septem spiritibus, qui in conspectu throni eius sunt:
5 and from—Jesus Christ, —The Faithful Witness, The Firstborn of the Dead, and The Ruler of the Kings of the Earth. Unto him that loveth us, and loosed us out of our sins with his blood, —
et a Iesu Christo, qui est testis fidelis, primogenitus mortuorum, et princeps regum terræ, qui dilexit nos, et lavit nos a peccatis nostris in sanguine suo,
6 and he hath made us [to be] a kingdom—priests unto his God and Father, Unto him, be the glory, and the dominion, unto the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
et fecit nos regnum, et sacerdotes Deo et Patri suo: ipsi gloria, et imperium in sæcula sæculorum: Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Lo! he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, such also as pierced him; and all the tribes of the land shall smite themselves for him. Yea! Amen.
Ecce venit cum nubibus, et videbit eum omnis oculus, et qui eum pupugerunt. Et plangent se super eum omnes tribus terræ: Etiam: Amen.
8 I, am, the A, and, the Z, saith the Lord, —the, God who Is, and who Was, and who is Coming, The Almighty.
Ego sum?, et?, principium, et finis, dicit Dominus Deus: qui est, et qui erat, et qui venturus est, omnipotens.
9 I, John, your brother, and partaker with you in the tribulation and kingdom and endurance in Jesus, came to be in the isle that is called Patmos, because of the word of God, and the witness of Jesus.
Ego Ioannes frater vester, et particeps in tribulatione, et regno et patientia in Christo Iesu: fui in insula, quæ appellatur Patmos propter verbum Dei, et testimonium Iesu:
10 I came to be, in Spirit, in the Lord’s Day, and heard, behind me, a loud voice, as of a trumpet,
Fui in spiritu in Dominica die, et audivi post me vocem magnam tamquam tubæ,
11 saying—What thou seest, write in a scroll, and send unto the Seven Assemblies, —unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, —and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, —and unto Laodicea.
dicentis: Quod vides, scribe in libro: et mitte septem Ecclesiis, quæ sunt in Asia, Epheso, et Smyrnæ, et Pergamo, et Thyatiræ, et Sardis, et Philadelphiæ, et Laodiciæ:
12 And I turned round, to see the Voice which was speaking with me, and, having turned, I saw Seven Lamps of gold;
Et conversus sum ut viderem vocem, quæ loquebatur mecum: Et conversus vidi septem candelabra aurea:
13 and, in the midst of the lamps, One like unto a Son of Man: —clothed with a robe, reaching to the feet, and girt about at the breasts with a girdle of gold,
et in medio septem candelabrorum aureorum similem filio hominis, vestitum podere, et præcinctum ad mamillas zona aurea:
14 And his head and hair, white, like white wool—like snow, and, his eyes, like a flame of fire,
caput autem eius, et capilli erant candidi tamquam lana alba, et tamquam nix, et oculi eius tamquam flamma ignis,
15 And, his feet, like unto glowing copper, as if in a furnace refined, and, his voice, like a sound of many waters,
et pedes eius similes aurichalco, sicut in camino ardenti, et vox illius tamquam vox aquarum multarum:
16 And, having in his right hand, seven stars, and, out of his mouth, a sharp, two-edged sword, going forth; and, his whole appearance, as when, the sun, shineth in its strength.
et habebat in dextera sua stellas septem: et de ore eius gladius utraque parte acutus exibat: et facies eius sicut sol lucet in virtute sua.
17 And, when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead, and he laid his right hand upon me, saying—Do not fear! I, am the First, and the Last,
Et cum vidissem eum, cecidi ad pedes eius tamquam mortuus. Et posuit dexteram suam super me, dicens: Noli timere: ego sum primus, et novissimus,
19 Write, therefore—what things thou hast seen and what they are; and what things are about to come to pass, after these things:
Scribe ergo quæ vidisti, et quæ sunt, et quæ oportet fieri post hæc.
20 The sacred secret of the seven stars, which thou sawest upon my right hand, and the seven lamps of gold: —The seven stars, are, messengers of the seven assemblies, and, the seven lamps, are, seven assemblies
Sacramentum septem stellarum, quas vidisti in dextera mea, et septem candelabra aurea: septem stellæ Angeli sunt septem Ecclesiarum: et candelabra septem, septem Ecclesiæ sunt.
