Revelation 12
1 Then something very unusual appeared in the sky. It was a woman, whose [appearance and] clothing were [MET] as bright as the sun. The moon was under her feet. On her head was a crown [that was made] of twelve stars.
| تَتَح پَرَں سْوَرْگے مَہاچِتْرَں درِشْٹَں یوشِدیکاسِیتْ سا پَرِہِتَسُورْیّا چَنْدْرَشْچَ تَسْیاشْچَرَنَیورَدھو دْوادَشَتاراناں کِرِیٹَنْچَ شِرَسْیاسِیتْ۔ |
2 She was pregnant. Then, as she was about to give birth, she cried out because she was suffering pain.
| سا گَرْبھَوَتِی سَتِی پْرَسَوَویدَنَیا وْیَتھِتارْتَّراوَمْ اَکَروتْ۔ |
3 Something else very unusual appeared in the sky. It was a huge red dragon. It had seven heads and ten horns. On each of its heads was a royal crown.
| تَتَح سْوَرْگے پَرَمْ ایکَں چِتْرَں درِشْٹَں مَہاناگَ ایکَ اُپاتِشْٹھَتْ سَ لوہِتَوَرْنَسْتَسْیَ سَپْتَ شِراںسِ سَپْتَ شرِنْگانِ شِرَحسُ چَ سَپْتَ کِرِیٹانْیاسَنْ۔ |
4 The dragon’s tail dragged a third of the stars from the sky and threw them to the earth. The dragon set himself in front of the woman who was about to give birth, in order that he might eat her child as soon as it was born.
| سَ سْوَلانْگُولینَ گَگَنَسْتھَنَکْشَتْراناں ترِتِییاںشَمْ اَوَمرِجْیَ پرِتھِوْیاں نْیَپاتَیَتْ۔ سَ ایوَ ناگو نَوَجاتَں سَنْتانَں گْرَسِتُمْ اُدْیَتَسْتَسْیاح پْرَسَوِشْیَمانایا یوشِتو نْتِکے تِشْٹھَتْ۔ |
5 The woman gave birth to a son, who [is destined] to rule all the nations with [complete authority as if he was using] [MET] an iron rod [MET]. [God] snatched away her child and took him to [rule from] his throne.
| سا تُ پُںسَنْتانَں پْرَسُوتا سَ ایوَ لَوہَمَیَراجَدَنْڈینَ سَرْوَّجاتِیشْچارَیِشْیَتِ، کِنْچَ تَسْیاح سَنْتانَ اِیشْوَرَسْیَ سَمِیپَں تَدِییَسِںہاسَنَسْیَ چَ سَنِّدھِمْ اُدّھرِتَح۔ |
6 The woman fled to a desert. She has a place there that God has prepared for her, in order that [the angels] may take care of her for 1,260 days.
| سا چَ یوشِتْ پْرانْتَرَں پَلایِتا یَتَسْتَتْریشْوَرینَ نِرْمِّتَ آشْرَمے شَشْٹھْیَدھِکَشَتَدْوَیادھِکَسَہَسْرَدِنانِ تَسْیاح پالَنینَ بھَوِتَوْیَں۔ |
7 [In the vision I saw that] there was a battle in heaven. Michael and the angels that he [commanded] fought against the dragon. The dragon and his angels fought back [against Michael and his angels].
| تَتَح پَرَں سْوَرْگے سَںگْرامَ اُپاپِشْٹھَتْ مِیکھاییلَسْتَسْیَ دُوتاشْچَ تینَ ناگینَ سَہایُدھْیَنْ تَتھا سَ ناگَسْتَسْیَ دُوتاشْچَ سَںگْرامَمْ اَکُرْوَّنْ، کِنْتُ پْرَبھَوِتُں ناشَکْنُوَنْ |
8 But the dragon did not win the battle, so [God] did not allow the dragon and his angels to stay in heaven any longer.
| یَتَح سْوَرْگے تیشاں سْتھانَں پُنَ رْناوِدْیَتَ۔ |
9 The huge dragon was thrown {[Michael and his angels] threw the huge dragon} out [of heaven]. The dragon is the ancient serpent, [the one] who is called the Devil and Satan. He is the one who deceives [people all over] the earth. He was thrown down to the earth, along with all his angels.
| اَپَرَں سَ مَہاناگو رْتھَتو دِیاوَلَح (اَپَوادَکَح) شَیَتانَشْچَ (وِپَکْشَح) اِتِ نامْنا وِکھْیاتو یَح پُراتَنَح سَرْپَح کرِتْسْنَں نَرَلوکَں بھْرامَیَتِ سَ پرِتھِوْیاں نِپاتِتَسْتینَ سارْدّھَں تَسْیَ دُوتا اَپِ تَتْرَ نِپاتِتاح۔ |
10 Then I heard [someone] in heaven shout loudly, saying, Now our God has saved his people by his power, and he rules everyone! Now the Messiah, the one who is the supreme ruler whom God appointed, has authority to rule all people, because our God has thrown out of heaven the one who accuses our fellow believers! The dragon is the one who accuses them day and night before our God, saying that they have sinned and that God ought to punish them.
| تَتَح پَرَں سْوَرْگے اُچَّے رْبھاشَمانو رَوو یَں مَیاشْراوِ، تْرانَں شَکْتِشْچَ راجَتْوَمَدھُنَیویشْوَرَسْیَ نَح۔ تَتھا تینابھِشِکْتَسْیَ تْراتُح پَراکْرَمو بھَوَتْں۔۔ یَتو نِپاتِتو سْماکَں بھْراترِناں سو بھِیوجَکَح۔ یینیشْوَرَسْیَ نَح ساکْشاتْ تے دُوشْیَنْتَ دِوانِشَں۔۔ |
11 Our fellow believers overcame the dragon because they never stopped trusting (OR, never stopped telling people about) Jesus, and because they trusted in what Jesus, the one who is like a lamb, accomplished when his blood flowed when he died. Even though those believers wanted to live, they were willing to let people kill them for speaking the truth about him.
| میشَوَتْسَسْیَ رَکْتینَ سْوَساکْشْیَوَچَنینَ چَ۔ تے تُ نِرْجِتَوَنْتَسْتَں نَ چَ سْنیہَمْ اَکُرْوَّتَ۔ پْرانوشْوَپِ سْوَکِیییشُ مَرَنَسْیَیوَ سَنْکَٹے۔ |
12 So, all you angels living [MTY] in heaven, rejoice! But terrible things will happen to you ungodly people who [MTY] live on the earth and on the ocean, because the devil has come down to you! He is very angry because he knows that he has only a short time during which he can harm people.
| تَسْمادْ آنَنْدَتُ سْوَرْگو ہرِشْیَنْتاں تَنِّوامِنَح۔ ہا بھُومِساگَرَو تاپو یُوامیواکْرَمِشْیَتِ۔ یُوَیورَوَتِیرْنو یَتْ شَیتانو تِیوَ کاپَنَح۔ اَلْپو مے سَمَیو سْتْییتَچّاپِ تیناوَگَمْیَتے۔۔ |
13 When the dragon realized that he had been thrown {that [the angels] had thrown him} down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to a son.
| اَنَنْتَرَں سَ ناگَح پرِتھِوْیاں سْوَں نِکْشِپْتَں وِلوکْیَ تاں پُتْرَپْرَسُوتاں یوشِتَمْ اُپادْرَوَتْ۔ |
14 But the woman was given two wings like the wings of a very large eagle, in order that she might fly to a desolate place. That is a place [that God] has prepared for her. There she was taken care of {[God’s angels] took care of her} for three and a half years. The serpent, [that is, the dragon], was not able to reach her there.
| تَتَح سا یوشِتْ یَتْ سْوَکِییَں پْرانْتَرَسْتھاشْرَمَں پْرَتْیُتْپَتِتُں شَکْنُیاتْ تَدَرْتھَں مَہاکُرَرَسْیَ پَکْشَدْوَیَں تَسْوَے دَتَّں، سا تُ تَتْرَ ناگَتو دُورے کالَیکَں کالَدْوَیَں کالارْدّھَنْچَ یاوَتْ پالْیَتے۔ |
15 The serpent spewed water like a river from his mouth in the direction of the woman, in order that the water might sweep her away.
| کِنْچَ سَ ناگَسْتاں یوشِتَں سْروتَسا پْلاوَیِتُں سْوَمُکھاتْ نَدِیوَتْ تویانِ تَسْیاح پَشْچاتْ پْراکْشِپَتْ۔ |
16 But the ground helped the woman [by] opening up and swallowing the river that the dragon spewed out from his mouth!
| کِنْتُ میدِنِی یوشِتَمْ اُپَکُرْوَّتِی نِجَوَدَنَں وْیادایَ ناگَمُکھادْ اُدْگِیرْناں نَدِیمْ اَپِوَتْ۔ |
17 Then the dragon was very angry with the woman, so he went away to fight against [the people who are like] the rest of her descendants. They are the people who obey God’s commandments and who tell other people about Jesus (OR, hold fast to what Jesus taught them).
| تَتو ناگو یوشِتے کْرُدّھوا تَدْوَںشَسْیاوَشِشْٹَلوکَیرَرْتھَتو یَ اِیشْوَرَسْیاجْناح پالَیَنْتِ یِیشوح ساکْشْیَں دھارَیَنْتِ چَ تَیح سَہَ یودّھُں نِرْگَتَوانْ۔ |
