Revelation 22
1 The angel showed me the river of water [that causes people who drink from it] to live [forever]. The water was sparkling and clear like crystal. The river was flowing out from the throne where God and the [one who is like a] lamb [were sitting].
Te phoeiah canglung bangla cim thik tih Pathen neh Tuca ngolkhoel lamkah aka long hingnah tuiva tui te kai n'tueng,
2 It flowed down through the middle of the [main] street of the city. On each side of the river were trees [bearing fruit that causes people who eat it] to live forever. [The trees] bear twelve [crops] (OR, twelve [kinds]) of fruit; [they] produce one crop each month. The [people of the] nations [MTY] [use] the leaves of these trees [as medicine] in order that they may feel stronger
A toltung lakli kah tuiva voeivang kah hingnah thingkung long te khaw a thaih hlainit la cuen, Hla takuem ah a thaih te thaii, Thing hnah te namtom rhoek kah hoeihnah la om.
3 There will never be [anyone or anything there that God] will be [under God’s] curse. The throne of God and the [one who is like a] lamb will be in the city. And God’s servants will worship him there.
Tapvoepnah boeih khaw om voel mahpawh, Pathen kah ngolkhoel neh Tuca tah a khuiah om ni. Te vaengah a sal rhoek loh amah te a bawk uh ni.
4 They will see him face-to-face, and his name will be [written] {[he] will [write] his name} on their foreheads.
A maelhmai te a hmuh uh vetih a ming te a tal ah a daek uh ni.
5 There will never again be night. [God’s servants] will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine his light upon them. And they will rule forever. (aiōn g165)
Amih te Boeipa Pathen loh a tue coeng dongah khoyin khaw om voel pawh, Hmaiim kah a vangnah neh Khomik kah vangnah khaw ngoe pawt vetih kumhal kah kumhal duela a poeng uh ni. (aiōn g165)
6 The angel said to me: “These words that [God has revealed to you] are true, and he will certainly do what he has promised to do. The Lord God who ([inspires] the prophets/tells the prophets what to say) sent his angel to show the people who serve him the events that must happen soon.”
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “Hekah olka tah uepom neh oltak la om tih tonghma rhoek mueihla kah Boeipa Pathen loh thamaa la aka thoeng ham te a sal rhoek tueng ham a puencawn te a tueih,” a ti,
7 [Jesus says to all his people], “Listen [to] this! I am coming soon; [God will abundantly] bless everyone who obeys what [has been commanded] in this book.”
Te dongah tlek ka lo ni he, He cayol khuikah tonghma ol kah ollung he aka kuem tah a yoethen.
8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw [in a vision] these things [that I have written down]. When I had heard and seen [them], I immediately knelt down at the feet of the angel who was showing them to me, in order to worship him.
Kai Johan loh he rhoek he ka yaak tih ka hmuh coeng. Ka yaak tih ka hmuh vaengah khaw kai aka tueng puencawn te bawk ham a kho kung ah ka bakop.
9 But he said to me, “Do not [worship me] I am [just] your fellow servant! I am also the fellow servant of your fellow believers who are (the prophets/the ones who tell messages that come directly from God), and I am a fellow servant of those who obey what has been commanded in this book. [Instead], worship God!”
Tedae kai taengah, “Na hmu mahnim? Kai khaw na manuca tonghma rhoek neh he Cayol olka aka kuem rhoek kah na sal puei ni, Pathen te mah bawk lah,” a ti.
10 He also said to me, “Do not keep secret the message about what [God] has foretold in this book, because it is almost time [MTY] for him to [what he has promised to do in this message].
Te phoeiah kai taengah, “He cabu kah tonghma ol kah ollung rhoek te kutnoek daeng boeh, a tue tah ha pai tom coeng,” a ti.
11 [Since that time is near, if] those who act in an evil manner [want to] continue to act that way [IRO], [that is up to them. God will soon] ([pay them back/punish them]) [for that. If] those who are vile [want to] continue to be vile [IRO], [that is up to them. God will soon] ([pay them back/punish them]) [for that]. Those who are [acting] righteously should continue to act righteously. And those who are holy should continue to be holy.”
Akah thae rhoek tah thae uh ngawn saeh lamtah aka savawk tah savawk ngawn saeh. Tedae aka dueng loh duengnah saii ngawn saeh lamtah aka cim tah ciim ngawn saeh.
12 [Jesus says this to everyone]: “Listen! I am coming soon! And I will pay back everyone according to what each one has done, by [punishing or] rewarding them.
Ka pawk koeloe pawn ni he, Kai taengkah ka thapang te a khoboe a om tarhingah rhip thuung ham om coeng.
13 I [am] the one who began all things [MET] and the one who will cause all things to end [MET]. I existed before [all things existed] and I will exist at the end [of all things] [DOU].
Kai tah Alpha neh Omega, Lamhma neh Hnukkhueng, Tongnah neh Bawtnah la ka om.
14 [God] is very pleased with the people who wash their robes, [making themselves spiritually clean] [MET], because they will be able to [eat the fruit of] [MTY] the tree [that enables people] to live [forever], and because they will [be able] to enter the gates into the [holy] city.
A hnikul a suk pah rhoek tah a yoethenuh. Te daengah ni hingnah thingkung taengah a saithainah a dang vetih vongka lamloh khopuei la a kun uh eh.
15 [People who are unholy] will not be allowed to enter the city. They include people who practice sorcery, people who sin sexually, murderers, idol worshipers, and everyone who enjoys telling lies and are continual liars. [They can never enter that city].”
Ui rhoek, hlangrhun rhoek, hlanghalh rhoek, hlang aka ngawn rhoek, mueibawk rhoek neh laithae aka lungnah tih aka saii boeih tah poengvoel ah om uh.
16 “I, Jesus, sent my angel in order that he might tell you who are in the congregations [that all] these things [that have been said are true]. I am the descendant of [King] David [whom the prophets promised would come] [MET]. I am the [one who is like] the bright morning star [MET], the one [that Moses promised would come].”
Kai Jesuh loh he he phong ham neh hlangboel rhoek ham ni nangmih taengah ka puencawn te kan tueih, Kai tah David kah a hnun neh a namtu la ka om tih Asi thuipa tah cim thik pai.
17 [God’s] Spirit and [his people, who are like] [MET] the bride [of Christ], say [to each one who desires to believe], “Come!” Whoever hears [this] should also say [to each one who desires to believe], “Come!” [Spiritually thirsty people should come] [MET]! Everyone who desires the water [that enables people to] live [forever] should take it as a free gift!
Te phoeiah Mueihla neh vasakung loh, “Ha lo lah,” a ti rhoi. Aka ya long khaw, “Ha lo lah,” ti van saeh. Tui aka hal tah ha pawk saeh lamtah hingnah tui a ngaih yet te a yoe la lo saeh.
18 “I, [Jesus, solemnly] warn everyone who hears what [I] have foretold in this book: If anyone adds anything to this message, God will cause him to experience the plagues that are {that [I] have} described in this book.
He tonghma ol, olka aka ya rhoek boeih taengah ka phong. Khat khat long ni te te a thap atah he Cayol ah a daek tangtae lucik te Pathen loh anih ham a thap ni.
19 If anyone omits any of the message about what [I] have foretold in this book, God will take away that person’s right [to eat fruit from] [MTY] the tree [that enables people] to live [forever]. He [will also take away] that person’s right [to enter] God’s city. [Both these things] are described {[I] have described [both these things]} in this book.”
Te phoeiah khat khat long ni he tonghma ol cabu dongkah olka te a yueh atah hekah cabu ah a daek tangtae hingnah thingkung neh khopuei cim ah a pang ham te Pathen loh a voeih pah ni.
20 [Jesus], who says that [all] the things written here are true, says, “Certainly I am coming soon!” [I, John, reply], “(May it be so!/Amen!) Lord Jesus, come!”
Hekah olka aka phong loh, “Thuem, tlek ka pawk pawn ni,” a ti. Amen, Boeipa Jesuh ha pawk laeh.
21 [I pray that our] Lord Jesus [will continue to] act kindly to all [of you who are God’s people]. (Amen!/May it be so!)
Boeipa Jesuh kah lungvatnah tah a cungkuem taengah om saeh.
