< Revelation 17 >
1 And oon of the seuene aungels cam, that hadde seuene viols, and spak with me, and seide, Come thou, Y schal schewe to thee the dampnacioun of the greet hoore, that sittith on many watris, with which kyngis of erthe diden fornicacioun;
In prišel je eden iz sedmerih angelov, imajočih sedmere čaše, in govoril je z menoj, rekoč mi: Sem! pokažem ti sodbo kurbe vélike, sedeče ob mnogih vodah;
2 and thei that dwellen in the erthe ben maad drunkun of the wyn of her letcherie.
S katero so se kurbali kralji zemeljski, in upijanili so se z vinom kurbarije njene zemlje prebivalci.
3 And he took me in to desert in spirit. And Y say a womman sittynge on a reed beeste, ful of names of blasfemye, hauynge seuene heedis, and ten hornes.
In odnese me v puščavo v duhu; in videl sem ženo sedečo na zveri škrlatni, polni imen preklinjanja, imajoči sedem glav in rogov deset.
4 And the womman was enuyround with purpur, and reed, and ouergild with gold, and preciouse stoon, and peerls, hauynge a goldun cuppe in hir hoond, ful of abhomynaciouns and vnclennesse of her fornycacioun.
In žena oblečena z bagrom in škrlatom in pozlačena sè zlatom in dragim kamenjem in biseri, imajoč zlato čašo v roki svoji, polno gnjusob in nečistosti kurbarije svoje,
5 And a name writun in the forheed of hir, Mysterie, Babiloyn the greet, modir of fornycaciouns, and of abhomynaciouns of erthe.
In na čelu svojem ime zapisano: Skrivnost, Babilon véliki, mati kurb in gnjusob zemlje!
6 And Y say a womman drunkun of the blood of seyntis, and of the blood of martris of Jhesu. And whanne Y say hir, Y wondride with greet wondryng.
In videl sem ženo pijano krvi svetnikov, in krvi pričevalcev Jezusovih; in čudil sem se, videč jo, čudom silnim.
7 And the aungel seide to me, Whi wondrist thou? I schal seie to thee the sacrament yf the womman, and of the beeste that berith hir, that hath seuene heedis and ten hornes.
In reče mi angelj: Zakaj se čudiš? Jaz ti povem skrivnost žene in zveri, katera jo nosi, katera ima sedem glav in rogov deset.
8 The beeste which thou seist, was, and is not; and sche schal stie fro depnesse, and sche schal go `in to perisching. And men dwellinge in erthe schulen wondre, whos names ben not writun in the book of lijf fro the makinge of the world, seynge the beeste, that was, and is not. (Abyssos )
Zver, katero si videl, bila je, in ni je, in priti ima gor iz brezna in iti v pogubo. In čudili se bodo prebivalci na zemlji, (katerih imena niso zapisana v knjigi življenja od ustanovitve sveta), gledajoč zver, katera je bila in je ni, dasi je. (Abyssos )
9 And this is the witt, who that hath wisdom. The seuene heedis ben seuene hillis, on whiche the womman sittith, and kyngis seuene ben.
Tukaj razum, kateri ima modrost. Sedmere glave so sedem gorâ, kjer žena sedí na njih, in so kraljev sedem.
10 Fyue han feld doun, oon is, and anothir cometh not yit. And whanne he schal come, it bihoueth hym to dwelle a schort tyme.
Pet jih je padlo in eden je, drugi ni še prišel; in kader pride, sme malo časa ostati.
11 And the beeste that was, and is not, and sche is the eiytthe, and is of the seuene, and schal go in to perischyng.
In zver, katera je bila in je ni, je sam osmi, in je izmed sedmerih in gre v pogubo.
12 And the ten hornes whiche thou hast seyn, ben ten kyngis, that yit han not take kyngdom; but thei schulen take power as kingis, oon our after the beeste.
In deseteri rogovi, katere si videl, so deset kraljev, kateri še niso prejeli kraljestva, ali oblast kakor kralji prejmó eno uro sè zverjo.
13 These han a counsel, and schulen bitake her vertu and power to the beeste.
Ti imajo eno misel, in moč in oblast svojo izročé zveri.
14 These schulen fiyte with the lomb, and the lomb schal ouercome hem; for he is Lord of lordis, and kyng of kyngis; and thei that ben with hym, ben clepid, chosun, and feithful.
Ti se bodo vojskovali z jagnjetom, in jagnje jih bode zmagalo, ker je gospodov Gospod in kraljev Kralj, in z njim poklicani in izvoljeni in zvesti.
15 And he seide to me, The watris whiche thou hast seyn, where the hoore sittith, ben puplis, and folkis, and langagis.
In govori mi: Vode, katere si videl, kjer kurba sedí, ljudstva so in druhali, in narodi in jeziki.
16 And the ten hornes that thou hast seyn in the beeste, these schulen make hir desolat and nakid, and schulen ete the fleischis of hir, and schulen brenne togidere hir with fier.
In deseteri rogovi, katere si videl na zveri, ti bodejo sovražili kurbo in jo pusto naredili in golo, in meso njeno pojedli in njo sežgali v ognji.
17 For God yaf in to the hertis of hem, that thei do that that is pleasaunt to hym, that thei yyue her kyngdom to the beeste, til the wordis of God ben endid.
Kajti Bog je dal v srca njih, da storé misel njegovo, in da storé eno misel, in dadó kraljestvo svoje zveri, dokler se ne izvršé besede Božje.
18 And the womman whom thou hast seyn, is the greet citee, that hath kingdom on kyngis of the erthe.
In žena, katero si videl, je mesto véliko, katero ima kraljestvo nad kralji zemljé.
