Revelation 14
1 But then I saw the [one who is like a] lamb standing on Zion Hill [in Jerusalem]. With him were 144,000 [people]. His name and his Father’s name had been written {[He] had written his name and his Father’s name} on their foreheads.
Y MIRÉ: y hé aquí el Cordero estaba sobre el monte de Sion, y con él ciento cuarenta y cuatro mil, que tenian el nombre de su Padre escrito en sus frentes.
2 I heard a sound from heaven, which was as [loud] [SIM] as the sound of a huge waterfall (OR, a great/wide [river of rushing] water) and which was [also as loud as] [SIM] mighty thunder. The sound that I heard was like [the sound that] people make when they are playing their harps.
Y oí una voz del cielo como ruido de muchas aguas, y como sonido de un gran trueno: y oí una voz de tañedores de arpas que tañian con sus arpas:
3 The 144,000 people were singing a new song [while they stood] in front of the throne, in front of the four living [creatures], and in front of the elders. Only the 144,000 [people], the ones who have been {whom [the one who is like a lamb] has} redeemed/bought from among the people on the earth, could learn that song. No one else could learn the song [that they sang].
Y cantaban como un cántico nuevo delante del trono, y delante de los cuatro animales, y de los ancianos: y ninguno podia aprender el cántico sino aquellos ciento cuarenta y cuatro mil, los cuales fueron comprados de entre los de la tierra.
4 Those 144,000 are the people who are [spiritually] pure, [like] virgins [are morally pure]. They have not (defiled themselves/made themselves impure) [MET] [by worshipping any false god]. They are the ones who accompany Jesus, the [one who is like a] lamb, wherever he goes. They [represent all those whom he has] redeemed/bought for God from among the people [of earth, in order that he might offer] them to God and to [himself].
Estos son los que con mujeres no fueron contaminados; porque son vírgenes. Estos los que siguen al Cordero por donde quiera que fuere. Estos fueron comprados de entre los hombres por primicias para Dios, y para el Cordero.
5 [Those people] never lie when they speak [MTY], and they never act immorally.
Y en sus bocas no ha sido hallado engaño; porque ellos son sin mácula delante del trono de Dios.
6 I saw another angel that was flying between the sky and heaven. He was bringing [God’s] eternal good message [to earth], in order that he might proclaim it to people who live on the earth. He will proclaim it to every nation, [to every] tribe, [to speakers of every] language [MTY], and [to every] people-[group]. (aiōnios g166)
Y ví otro ángel volar por en medio del cielo, que tenia el Evangelio eterno, para predicarlo á los que moran en la tierra, y á toda nacion, y tribu, y lengua, y pueblo, (aiōnios g166)
7 He said in a loud voice, “Revere God and honor him, because it is now time for him to judge [people]! Worship [God, because he is] the one who created the heaven, the earth, the ocean, and the springs of water.”
Diciendo en alta voz: Temed á Dios, y dadle honra; porque la hora de su juicio es venida; y adorad á aquel que ha hecho el cielo, y la tierra, y el mar, y las fuentes de las aguas.
8 A second angel came after him saying, “The very evil [cities] (OR, [city]) [represented by] Babylon are completely destroyed! [God] has punished [their people because] they [have persuaded people of] all the nations [to forsake God, just like a prostitute] [MET] persuades [men] to drink [strong] wine and [as a result] commit sexual immorality.”
Y otro ángel le siguió, diciendo: Ha caido, ha caido Babilonia, aquella grande ciudad, porque ella ha dado á beber á todas las naciones del vino del furor de su fornicacion.
9 A third angel came next, saying in a loud voice, “If people worship the beast and its image and [allow] its mark to be put {its [agent to] put its mark} on their foreheads or on their hands,
Y el tercer ángel los siguió, diciendo á alta voz: Si alguno adora á la bestia, y á su imágen, y toma la señal en su frente, ó en su mano,
10 God will be angry with them and punish them very severely [MET]. They will be tormented {[God] will torment them} in burning sulfur in the presence of his holy angels and in the presence of the [one who is like a] lamb.
Este tambien beberá del vino de la ira de Dios, el cual está echado puro en el cáliz de su ira; y será atormentado con fuego y azufre delante de los santos ángeles, y delante del Cordero.
11 The smoke [from the fire] that torments them will rise forever. [They will] be tormented {[God will] torment them} continually, day and night. [That is what will happen to] the people who worship the beast and its image and who allow its name to be marked on them {allow [its agent] to mark them with its name}.” (aiōn g165)
Y el humo del tormento de ellos sube para siempre jamás. Y los que adoran á la bestia y á su imágen, no tienen reposo dia ni noche, ni cualquiera que tomare la señal de su nombre. (aiōn g165)
12 So God’s people, those who obey what God commands and who trust in Jesus, must faithfully continue [obeying and trusting him].
Aquí está la paciencia de los santos; aquí [están] los que guardan los mandamientos de Dios, y la fé de Jesus.
13 I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write [this: God will] now [abundantly] bless the people who have a close relationship with the Lord [Jesus] for the rest of [their lives].” [God’s] Spirit says, “Yes, [after they die], they will no longer have to work hard. Instead, they will rest, and [the record of the good deeds] [MTY] that they have done will go with them (OR, [God] will [reward them] for the good deeds that they have done).”
Y oí una voz del cielo, que me decia, Escribe: Bienaventurados los muertos que de aquí adelante mueren en el Señor. Sí, dice el Espíritu, que descansarán de sus trabajos; porque sus obras con ellos siguen.
14 Then I was surprised to see a white cloud, and on the cloud [someone] was sitting who looked like the one who came from heaven. He [was wearing] a golden crown on his head. In his hand [he held] a sharp sickle.
Y miré, y hé aquí una nube blanca; y sobre la nube uno sentado semejante al Hijo del hombre, que tenia en su cabeza una corona de oro, y en su mano una hoz aguda.
15 Another angel came out of the temple [in heaven]. In a loud voice, [speaking figuratively about gathering people for God to judge them], he said to the one who was sitting on the cloud, “The time has come to reap [the grain on the earth], so with your sickle [reap] the [grain], because the grain on the earth is ripe.”
Y otro ángel salió del templo, clamando en alta voz al que estaba sentado sobre la nube: Mete tu hoz, y siega; porque la hora de segar te es venida, por que la mies de la tierra está madura.
16 The one who was sitting on the cloud forcefully gathered together [all the people] on earth, [as] [MET] [a farmer] reaps grain with his sickle.
Y el que estaba sentado sobre la nube echó su hoz sobre la tierra, y la tierra fué segada.
17 Another angel came out of the sanctuary in heaven. He also held a sharp sickle.
Y salió otro ángel del templo que está en el cielo, teniendo tambien una hoz aguda.
18 From the altar came another angel. He is the one who takes care of the fire [of the altar. Also speaking figuratively about gathering the wicked people for God to judge and punish them], he said in a loud voice to the angel who held the sharp sickle, “With your sharp sickle cut off the clusters of grapes in the vineyards on the earth! Then gather the clusters of grapes together, because its grapes are ripe!”
Y otro ángel salió del altar, el cual tenia poder sobre el fuego, y clamó con gran voz al que tenia la hoz aguda, diciendo: Mete tu hoz aguda, y vendimia los racimos de la tierra; porque están maduras sus uvas.
19 So, [just like a man would] cut off with his sickle the clusters of grapes in his vineyard [MET], an angel forcefully [gathered the wicked people] on the earth. Then he threw them into the huge place where God will angrily punish them.
Y el ángel echó su hoz aguda en la tierra, y vendimió la viña de la tierra, y echó [la uva] en el grande lagar de la ira de Dios.
20 [The wicked people] were trampled on {[God’s agent] trod on [the wicked people]} [in] the winepress outside the city. The blood that came out from the winepress flowed [in a stream so deep that it reached] to the bridles of the horses, [and extended] (180 miles/300 kilometers).
Y el lagar fué hollado fuera de la ciudad, y del lagar salió sangre hasta los frenos de los caballos por mil y seiscientos estadios.
