Revelation 8
1 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was a silence in heaven for about half an hour.
Když Beránek rozlomil sedmou pečeť svitku, ztichlo celé nebe a to mlčení trvalo asi půl hodiny.
2 Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
Potom jsem uviděl sedm andělů stát před Bohem a každý z nich dostal polnici.
3 Another angel came, holding a golden incense bowl, standing at the incense altar. Much incense was given to him so that he would offer it with the prayers of all the saints on the golden incense altar before the throne.
Další anděl přistoupil k oltáři se zlatou nádobou v ruce. Smísil množství vonných pryskyřic s modlitbami věřících lidí a zapálil to vše na zlatém oltáři před Božím trůnem.
4 The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the angel's hand.
Dým z této oběti stoupal z oltáře až k Boží tváři.
5 The angel took the incense bowl and filled it with fire from the altar. Then he threw it down to the earth, and there were crashes of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
Pak anděl nabral žhavé oharky z oltáře do nádoby a vysypal je na zem. Tu se strhla bouře, blýskalo se, burácel hrom a nastalo zemětřesení.
6 The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.
Těch sedm andělů s polnicemi se připravilo, aby troubili.
7 The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there was hail and fire mixed with blood. It was thrown down onto the earth so that a third of it was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
Zatroubil první: Nastalo krupobití a na zem spadl krvavý oheň a sežehl třetinu všech lesů a každé stéblo trávy.
8 The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea became blood,
Pak zatroubil druhý anděl a do moře se zřítilo jakési obrovské ohnivé těleso. Třetina mořské vody se zbarvila do krvava,
9 a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
třetina živočichů v moři uhynula a potopila se třetina všech lodí.
10 The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a huge star fell from the sky, blazing like a torch, on a third of the rivers and springs of water.
Když zazněla třetí polnice, spadla z nebe veliká hvězda sršící jako vržená pochodeň. Padla na třetinu řek a pramenů a zamořila třetinu vod svou jedovatou hořkostí; mnoho lidí v důsledku toho zemřelo. Ta hvězda byla nazvána Pelyněk.
11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the waters that became bitter.
12 The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, as well as a third of the moon and a third of the stars. So a third of them turned dark; a third of the day and a third of the night had no light.
Potom zatroubil čtvrtý anděl. Slunce i měsíc ztratily třetinu svého jasu a pohasla třetina hvězd. Den i noc potemněly.
13 I looked, and I heard an eagle that was flying overhead calling out with a loud voice, “Woe, woe, woe, to those who live on the earth, because of the remaining trumpet blasts that are about to be sounded by the three angels.”
Pak jsem spatřil orla, který se vznášel vysoko na obloze a hlasitě křičel: „Běda, běda, běda, hrůza obyvatelům země, až zatroubí poslední tři andělští trubači!“
