ئاشکراکردن 1

1 ئاشکراکردنی عیسای مەسیح کە خودا پێیداوە، تاکو ئەو شتانەی دەبێت زوو ڕووبدەن بە بەندەکانی پیشان بدات. خودا لە ڕێگەی ناردنی فریشتەکەیەوە بۆ لای یۆحەنای بەندەی، ئەو شتانەی دەرخست،

[This book tells the message] that God revealed to Jesus Christ. God revealed it to him in order that he might reveal to his servants the [things/events] that must happen soon. Jesus communicated [this message] to [me], his servant John, by sending his angel to me.

2 کە شایەتیی دا بۆ هەموو ئەو شتانەی کە بینی، واتە وشەی خودا و شایەتیی عیسای مەسیح.

[As I write it, I], John, am truthfully reporting everything that I saw [and heard], the message from God that Jesus Christ [truthfully reported to me].

3 خۆزگە دەخوازرێت بەوەی وتەکانی ئەم پێشبینییە دەخوێنێتەوە، هەروەها خۆزگە بەو کەسانەش دەخوازرێت کە دەیبیستن و ئەوەی تێیدا نووسراوە پەیڕەوی دەکەن، چونکە کاتەکە نزیکە.

[God is] pleased with those who read [this book to the congregations], and he will be pleased with those who listen carefully to it and obey what [he has commanded in this prophetic message that I] am writing. [So read this message to the congregations, listen carefully to it, and obey it], because [these things that Jesus has revealed] will happen soon.

4 لە یۆحەناوە، بۆ حەوت کڵێساکەی هەرێمی ئاسیا: با نیعمەت و ئاشتیتان بۆ ببێت لەوەوەی کە هەیە و هەبووە و دێت و لەو حەوت ڕۆحەوەی لەبەردەم تەختەکەیدان،

[I], John, am [writing this] to [you believers in] the seven congregations [that are located] in Asia [province]. [I pray that God the Father, God’s Spirit, and Jesus Christ] be kind to (OR, bless) you and cause you to have [inner] peace. [God the Father is] the one who exists, who has always existed, and who will always exist. The Spirit [of God, who] is in front of God’s throne, has [all kinds of power] (OR, The Spirit of God [is symbolized] by seven spirits who are in front of God’s throne).

5 هەروەها لە عیسای مەسیحیشەوە کە شایەتیدەری دڵسۆزە، نۆبەرەی هەستانەوەی نێو مردووانە و سەرۆکی پاشاکانی سەر زەوییە. ئەو کە ئێمەی خۆشدەوێت و بە خوێنی خۆی لە گوناهەکانمان ئازادی کردین و

Jesus Christ is the one who has faithfully told [people about God]. He is the first one (whom God has raised from the dead/who became alive again after being dead), in order [to show that God will raise us who trust in Jesus]. Jesus is the one who rules the kings of the earth. He is the one who loves us. He is the one who has erased the record our sins. He did that by shedding his blood [when he died on the cross].

6 ئێمەی کردە شانشین و کاهین بۆ خودای باوکی، هەتاهەتایە شکۆ و دەسەڵات بۆ ئەوە! ئامین. (aiōn g165)

He is [the one who] has caused us to become people whose lives God rules, and he has made us to be priests [who serve] God his Father. [As a result of this, we acknowledge that] Jesus Christ is eternally divine and eternally powerful. (Amen!/That is true!) (aiōn g165)

7 ئەوەتا لەگەڵ هەوردا دێت و هەموو چاوێک دەیبینێت، ئەوانەش کە ڕمیان لێیداوە، هەموو خێڵەکانی زەویش شیوەنی بۆ دەگێڕن.

Listen carefully! Christ will surely come in the midst of the clouds [in order that he may judge the rebellious people of earth], and everyone [SYN] will see him [come]. Even those who [are responsible for] piercing [and killing] him [MTY] [will see him come. People from] all people-groups on earth will mourn because he [will punish them]. (Amen!/May it be so.)

8 یەزدانی پەروەردگار دەفەرموێ: «من ئەلف و یێم، ئەوەی هەیە و هەبووە و دێت، هەرە بەتوانا.»

The Lord God declares, “I am the one who created [everything], and I am the [one who will cause everything to] end [MET].” He is the one who exists, who has always existed, and who will always exist. He is the Almighty One.

9 من یۆحەنای براتانم، کە بە یەکبوون لەگەڵ عیسادا هاوبەشتانم لە تەنگانە و شانشین و دانبەخۆداگرتن، لە پێناوی پەیامی خودا و شایەتی بۆ عیسا لە دوورگەی پەتمۆس بووم.

I, John, your fellow believer, am suffering as you [are] because of our letting Jesus rule [our lives]. We are steadfastly enduring [trials] because of our relationship with him. I was punished by being sent/exiled to Patmos island because [of my proclaiming] God’s message and telling [people about] Jesus.

10 لە ڕۆژی یەزداندا ڕۆحی پیرۆزم هاتە سەر و لە پشتمەوە گوێم لە دەنگێکی بەرزی وەک کەڕەنا بوو،

[God’s] Spirit took control of me on one of the days [that we believers met to worship] the Lord.

11 دەیفەرموو: «ئەوەی دەیبینی لە پەڕتووکێک بینووسەوە و بۆ حەوت کڵێساکەی بنێرە، واتە ئەفەسۆس و سمیرنا و پرگامۆس و سیاتیرا و ساردس و فیلادەلفیا و لاودیکییا.»

[At that time], I heard behind me someone [speaking to me as loudly and as clearly] [SIM] as a trumpet. He was saying [to me], “Write on a scroll what you see, and send it to seven congregations. Send it to [the congregations] in Ephesus [city], in Smyrna [city], in Pergamum [city], in Thyatira [city], in Sardis [city], in Philadelphia [city], and in Laodicea [city].”

12 ئاوڕم دایەوە تاکو ئەو دەنگە ببینم کە لەگەڵم دەدوا. کاتێک ئاوڕم دایەوە حەوت چرادانی زێڕینم بینی،

[In this vision] I turned in order that I might see who had spoken to me [SYN]. When I turned,

13 لەناوەڕاستی چرادانەکاندا یەکێکم وەک کوڕی مرۆڤ بینی، جلێکی شۆڕی لەبەردا بوو هەتا بەرپێی، پشتێنێکی زێڕینی بە سنگییەوە بەستبوو.

I saw seven golden lampstands. In the midst of the lampstands there was [someone] who looked like he came from heaven. He wore a robe that reached to his feet, and he wore a gold band around his chest.

14 سەر و قژی سپی وەک خوری و وەک بەفر سپی بوون و چاوەکانی وەک گڕی ئاگر بوون.

The hair on his head was white like white wool [or] like snow. His eyes were [shining brightly] [SIM], like a flame of fire.

15 پێیەکانی وەک بڕۆنزێکی بریقەدار کە لە کوورە پوختە کرابێت وابوون، دەنگیشی وەک هاژەی تاڤگە وابوو.

His feet [looked] like brass that glows [as it is being] purified {as [people] purify it} in a furnace. [When he spoke], his voice [sounded] like the sound [made by] a huge waterfall (OR, a great/wide river of rushing water).

16 حەوت ئەستێرە لە دەستی ڕاستی بوون، شمشێرێکی دوودەمیش لە دەمیەوە دەردەچوو، ڕوخساری وەک تیشکی بەتینی ڕۆژ دەدرەوشایەوە.

In his right hand he held seven stars. A sword that had two sharp edges extended from his mouth. His face [shone as bright] as the sun shines [at midday] [MTY].

17 کاتێک بینیم وەک مردوو لەبەرپێی کەوتم، دەستی ڕاستی خستە سەرم و فەرمووی: «مەترسە، من سەرەتا و کۆتاییم.

When I saw him, I fell down at his feet [and was unable to move or speak] [SIM], as though [I were] dead. But he put his right hand on me and said to me, “Don’t be afraid! I am the one who created [all things] and the [one who will cause all things to] end.

18 منم زیندووەکە! مردبووم، بەڵام ئەوەتا ئێستا بۆ هەتاهەتایە زیندووم! هەروەها کلیلەکانی مردن و جیهانی مردووانم پێیە. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)

I am the living one. Although I died, I am alive again and will live forever! I have [the power to cause people] to die, and I have authority over the place where all the dead people [are]. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)

19 «بۆیە ئەمانە بنووسە لەوەی بینیت و ئەوەی هەیە و ئەوەی پاش ئەمەش دەبێت.

So write the [vision] that you are seeing. Write about the [conditions] that exist now, and the [events] that are about to happen next.

20 نهێنی ئەو حەوت ئەستێرەیەی لە دەستی ڕاستم بینیت و حەوت چرادانە زێڕینەکە ئەمەیە: حەوت ئەستێرەکە فریشتەی حەوت کڵێساکانن و حەوت چرادانەکەش حەوت کڵێساکەن.»

The meaning of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand and the seven golden lampstands [that you saw is this]: The seven stars [in my hand represent the leaders, who are like] angels, [who watch over] the seven congregations, and the [seven] lampstands [represent] the seven congregations.”
