Apocalypsis 19
1 Post haec audivi quasi vocem turbarum multarum in caelo dicentium: Alleluia: Laus, et gloria, et virtus Deo nostro est:
After these things there came to my ears a sound like the voice of a great band of people in heaven, saying, Praise to the Lord; salvation and glory and power be to our God:
2 quia vera, et iusta iudicia sunt eius, qui iudicavit de meretrice magna, quae corrupit terram in prostitutione sua, et vindicavit sanguinem servorum suorum de manibus eius.
For true and upright are his decisions; for by him has the evil woman been judged, who made the earth unclean with the sins of her body; and he has given her punishment for the blood of his servants.
And again they said, Praise to the Lord. And her smoke went up for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)
4 Et ceciderunt seniores vigintiquattuor, et quattuor animalia, et adoraverunt Deum sedentem super thronum, dicentes: Amen: Alleluia.
And the four and twenty rulers and the four beasts went down on their faces and gave worship to God who was seated on the high seat, saying, Even so, praise to the Lord.
5 Et vox de throno exivit, dicens: Laudem dicite Deo nostro omnes servi eius: et qui timetis eum pusilli, et magni.
And a voice came from the high seat, saying, Give praise to our God, all you his servants, small and great, in whom is the fear of him.
6 Et audivi quasi vocem turbae magnae, et sicut vocem aquarum multarum, et sicut vocem tonitruorum magnorum, dicentium: Alleluia: quoniam regnavit Dominus Deus noster omnipotens.
And there came to my ears the voice of a great army, like the sound of waters, and the sound of loud thunders, saying, Praise to the Lord: for the Lord our God, Ruler of all, is King.
7 Gaudeamus, et exultemus: et demus gloriam ei: quia venerunt nuptiae Agni, et uxor eius praeparavit se.
Let us be glad with delight, and let us give glory to him: because the time is come for the Lamb to be married, and his wife has made herself ready.
8 Et datum est illi ut cooperiat se byssino splendenti, et candido. Byssinum enim iustificationes sunt Sanctorum.
And to her it was given to be clothed in delicate linen, clean and shining: for the clean linen is the righteousness of the saints.
9 Et dicit mihi: Scribe: Beati, qui ad coenam nuptiarum Agni vocati sunt: et dicit mihi: Haec verba Dei vera sunt.
And he said to me, Put in the book, Happy are the guests at the bride-feast of the Lamb. And he said to me, These are the true words of God.
10 Et cecidi ante pedes eius, ut adorarem eum. Et dicit mihi: Vide ne feceris: conservus tuus sum, et fratrum tuorum habentium testimonium Iesu. Deum adora. Testimonium enim Iesu est spiritus prophetiae.
And I went on my face before his feet to give him worship. And he said to me, See you do it not: I am a brother-servant with you and with your brothers who keep the witness of Jesus: give worship to God: for the witness of Jesus is the spirit of the prophet's word.
11 Et vidi caelum apertum, et ecce equus albus, et qui sedebat super eum, vocabatur Fidelis, et Verax, et cum iustitia iudicat, et pugnat.
And the heaven was open; and I saw a white horse, and he who was seated on it was named Certain and True; and he is judging and making war in righteousness.
12 Oculi autem eius sicut flamma ignis, et in capite eius diademata multa, habens nomen scriptum, quod nemo novit nisi ipse.
And his eyes are a flame of fire, and crowns are on his head; and he has a name in writing, of which no man has knowledge but himself.
13 Et vestitus erat veste aspersa sanguine: et vocabatur nomen eius, Verbum Dei.
And he is clothed in a robe washed with blood: and his name is The Word of God.
14 Et exercitus qui sunt in caelo, sequebantur eum in equis albis, vestiti byssino albo, et mundo.
And the armies which are in heaven went after him on white horses, clothed in delicate linen, white and clean.
15 Et de ore eius procedit gladius ex utraque parte acutus: ut in ipso percutiat Gentes. Et ipse reget eas in virga ferrea: et ipse calcat torcular vini furoris irae Dei omnipotentis.
And out of his mouth comes a sharp sword, with which he overcomes the nations: and he has rule over them with a rod of iron: and he is crushing with his feet the grapes of the strong wrath of God the Ruler of all.
16 Et habet in vestimento, et in foemore suo scriptum: Rex regum, et Dominus dominantium.
And on his robe and on his leg is a name, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
17 Et vidi unum Angelum stantem in sole, et clamavit voce magna, dicens omnibus avibus, quae volabant per medium caeli: Venite, et congregamini ad coenam magnam Dei:
And I saw an angel taking his place in the sun; and he was crying with a loud voice, saying to all the birds in flight in the heavens, Come together to the great feast of God;
18 ut manducetis carnes regum, et carnes tribunorum, et carnes fortium, et carnes equorum, et sedentium in ipsis, et carnes omnium liberorum, et servorum, et pusillorum, et magnorum.
So that you may take for your food the flesh of kings, and of captains, and of strong men, and of horses and of those who are seated on them, and the flesh of all men, free and unfree, small and great.
19 Et vidi bestiam, et reges terrae, et exercitus eorum congregatos ad faciendum praelium cum illo, qui sedebat in equo, et cum exercitu eius.
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, come together to make war against him who was seated on the horse and against his army.
21 Et ceteri occisi sunt in gladio sedentis super equum, qui procedit de ore ipsius: et omnes aves saturatae sunt carnibus eorum.
And the rest were put to death with the sword of him who was on the horse, even the sword which came out of his mouth: and all the birds were made full with their flesh.
