Revelation 12
1 And a great sign was seen in the heaven, a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars,
In na nebu se je prikazalo veliko znamenje; ženska, oblečena s soncem in luna pod njenimi stopali in krona dvanajsterih zvezd na njeni glavi.
2 and being with child she doth cry out, travailing and pained to bring forth.
In ona, ki je bila z otrokom, je vpila v porodnih mukah in bolečinah, da bi rodila.
3 And there was seen another sign in the heaven, and, lo, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his head seven diadems,
In na nebu se je prikazalo drugo znamenje in glej, velik rdeč zmaj, ki je imel sedem glav in deset rogov ter na njegovih glavah sedem kron.
4 and his tail doth draw the third of the stars of the heaven, and he did cast them to the earth; and the dragon did stand before the woman who is about to bring forth, that when she may bring forth, her child he may devour;
In njegov rep je potegnil z neba tretjino zvezd ter jih vrgel na zemljo in zmaj je stal pred žensko, ki je bila pripravljena, da rodi, da bi požrl njenega otroka takoj, ko bi se rodil.
5 and she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne,
In rodila je fantka, ki je bil [namenjen], da vsem narodom vlada z železno palico in njen otrok je bil vzet k Bogu in k njegovemu prestolu.
6 and the woman did flee to the wilderness, where she hath a place made ready from God, that there they may nourish her — days a thousand, two hundred, sixty.
In ženska je pobegnila v divjino, kjer je imela prostor, pripravljen od Boga, da naj bi jo tam hranili tisoč dvesto in šestdeset dni.
7 And there came war in the heaven; Michael and his messengers did war against the dragon, and the dragon did war, and his messengers,
In bila je vojna v nebesih. Mihael in njegovi angeli so se bojevali proti zmaju in zmaj se je bojeval ter njegovi angeli,
8 and they did not prevail, nor was their place found any more in the heaven;
pa niso prevladali niti se na nebu zanje ni več našel prostor.
9 and the great dragon was cast forth — the old serpent, who is called 'Devil,' and 'the Adversary,' who is leading astray the whole world — he was cast forth to the earth, and his messengers were cast forth with him.
In véliki zmaj je bil vržen ven, ta stara kača, imenovana hudič in Satan, ki zavaja ves svet. Izgnan je bil na zemljo in njegovi angeli so bili izgnani z njim.
10 And I heard a great voice saying in the heaven, 'Now did come the salvation, and the power, and the reign, of our God, and the authority of His Christ, because cast down was the accuser of our brethren, who is accusing them before our God day and night;
In na nebu sem zaslišal močan glas, rekoč: »Sedaj je prišla rešitev duš in moč in kraljestvo našega Boga in oblast njegovega Kristusa, kajti vržen je dol obtoževalec naših bratov, ki jih je dan in noč obtoževal pred našim Bogom.«
11 and they did overcome him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life — unto death;
In oni so ga premagali s krvjo Jagnjeta in z besedo svojega pričevanja in svojih življenj niso ljubili do smrti.
12 because of this be glad, ye heavens, and those in them who do tabernacle; woe to those inhabiting the land and the sea, because the Devil did go down unto you, having great wrath, having known that he hath little time.'
Zato se veselite, ve nebesa in vi, ki prebivate v njih. Gorje prebivalcem zemlje in morja! Kajti hudič je prišel dol k vam, zelo ogorčen, ker ve, da ima le malo časa.
13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast forth to the earth, he pursued the woman who did bring forth the male,
In ko je zmaj videl, da je bil vržen na zemljo, je preganjal žensko, ki je rodila moško dete.
14 and there were given to the woman two wings of the great eagle, that she may fly to the wilderness, to her place, where she is nourished a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent;
In ženski sta bili dani dve peruti velikega orla, da bi lahko odletela v divjino, na njen kraj, kjer je bila hranjena čas in čase in polovico časa, proč od obraza kače.
15 and the serpent did cast forth after the woman, out of his mouth, water as a river, that he may cause her to be carried away by the river,
In kača je iz svojih ust vrgla za žensko vodo kot poplavo, da bi lahko povzročila, da jo poplava odnese.
16 and the land did help the woman, and the land did open its mouth and did swallow up the river, that the dragon did cast forth out of his mouth;
In zemlja je pomagala ženski in zemlja je odprla svoja usta ter požrla poplavo, ki jo je zmaj vrgel iz svojih ust.
17 and the dragon was angry against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, those keeping the commands of God, and having the testimony of Jesus Christ.
In zmaj je bil ogorčen proti ženski in odšel, da povzroči vojno proti preostanku njenega potomstva, ki se drži Božjih zapovedi in ima pričevanje Jezusa Kristusa.
