Apocalypsis 22
1 Et ostendit mihi fluvium aquae vivae, splendidum tamquam crystallum, procedentem de sede Dei et Agni.
And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, bright as crystal, going forth out of the throne of God and of the Lamb:
2 In medio plateae eius, et ex utraque parte fluminis lignum vitae, afferens fructus duodecim, per menses singulos reddens fructum suum, et folia ligni ad sanitatem Gentium.
in the midst of its broad place, and of the river on this side and on that, [is] a tree of life, yielding twelve fruits, in each several month rendering its fruits, and the leaves of the tree [are] for the service of the nations;
3 Et omne maledictum non erit amplius: sed sedes Dei, et Agni in illa erunt, et servi eius servient illi.
and any curse there shall not be any more, and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him,
4 Et videbunt faciem eius: et nomen eius in frontibus eorum.
and they shall see His face, and His name [is] upon their foreheads,
5 Et nox ultra non erit: et non egebunt lumine lucernae, neque lumine solis, quoniam Dominus Deus illuminabit illos, et regnabunt in saecula saeculorum. (aiōn g165)
and night shall not be there, and they have no need of a lamp and light of a sun, because the Lord God doth give them light, and they shall reign — to the ages of the ages. (aiōn g165)
6 Et dixit mihi: Haec verba fidelissima sunt, et vera. Et Dominus Deus spirituum prophetarum misit Angelum suum ostendere servis suis quae oportet fieri cito.
And he said to me, 'These words [are] stedfast and true, and the Lord God of the holy prophets did send His messenger to shew to His servants the things that it behoveth to come quickly:
7 Et ecce venio velociter. Beatus, qui custodit verba prophetiae libri huius.
Lo, I come quickly; happy [is] he who is keeping the words of the prophecy of this scroll.'
8 Et ego Ioannes, qui audivi, et vidi haec. Et postquam audissem, et vidissem, cecidi ut adorarem ante pedes angeli, qui mihi haec ostendebat:
And I, John, am he who is seeing these things and hearing, and when I heard and beheld, I fell down to bow before the feet of the messenger who is shewing me these things;
9 et dixit mihi: Vide ne feceris: conservus enim tuus sum, et fratrum tuorum prophetarum, et eorum, qui servant verba prophetiae libri huius: Deum adora.
and he saith to me, 'See — not; for fellow-servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of those keeping the words of this scroll; before God bow.'
10 Et dicit mihi: Ne signaveris verba prophetiae libri huius: tempus enim prope est.
And he saith to me, 'Thou mayest not seal the words of the prophecy of this scroll, because the time is nigh;
11 Qui nocet, noceat adhuc: et qui in sordibus est, sordescat adhuc: et qui iustus est, iustificetur adhuc: et sanctus, sanctificetur adhuc.
he who is unrighteous — let him be unrighteous still, and he who is filthy — let him be filthy still, and he who is righteous — let him be declared righteous still, and he who is sanctified — let him be sanctified still:
12 Ecce venio cito, et merces mea mecum est, reddere unicuique secundum opera sua.
And lo, I come quickly, and my reward [is] with me, to render to each as his work shall be;
13 Ego sum alpha, et omega, primus, et novissimus, principium, et finis.
I am the Alpha and the Omega — the Beginning and End — the First and the Last.
14 Beati, qui lavant stolas suas in sanguine Agni: ut sit potestas eorum in ligno vitae, et per portas intrent in civitatem.
'Happy are those doing His commands that the authority shall be theirs unto the tree of the life, and by the gates they may enter into the city;
15 Foris canes, et venefici, et impudici, et homicidae, et idolis servientes, et omnis, qui amat, et facit mendacium.
and without [are] the dogs, and the sorcerers, and the whoremongers, and the murderers, and the idolaters, and every one who is loving and is doing a lie.
16 Ego Iesus misi Angelum meum, testificari vobis haec in Ecclesiis. Ego sum radix, et genus David, stella splendida, et matutina.
'I, Jesus did send my messenger to testify to you these things concerning the assemblies; I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright and morning star!
17 Et spiritus, et sponsa dicunt: Veni. Et qui audit, dicat: Veni. Et qui sitit, veniat: et qui vult, accipiat aquam vitae, gratis.
And the Spirit and the Bride say, Come; and he who is hearing — let him say, Come; and he who is thirsting — let him come; and he who is willing — let him take the water of life freely.
18 Contestor enim omni audienti verba prophetiae libri huius: Si quis apposuerit ad haec, apponet Deus super illum plagas scriptas in libro isto.
'For I testify to every one hearing the words of the prophecy of this scroll, if any one may add unto these, God shall add to him the plagues that have been written in this scroll,
19 Et si quis diminuerit de verbis libri prophetiae huius, auferet Deus partem eius de libro vitae, et de civitate sancta, et de his, quae scripta sunt in libro isto.
and if any one may take away from the words of the scroll of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the scroll of the life, and out of the holy city, and the things that have been written in this scroll;'
20 dicit qui testimonium perhibet istorum. Etiam venio cito: Amen. Veni Domine Iesu.
he saith — who is testifying these things — 'Yes, I come quickly!' Amen! Yes, be coming, Lord Jesus!
21 Gratia Domini nostri Iesu Christi cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you all. Amen.
