Whakakitenga 15
1 A i kite ahau i tetahi atu tohu i te rangi, he mea nui, he mea whakamiharo, tokowhitu nga anahera kei a ratou nga whiu whakamutunga e whitu; ko te whakaotinga hoki enei o te riri a te Atua.
I saw another great and marvellous sign in the sky: seven angels having the seven last plagues, for in them God’s wrath is finished.
2 A ka kite ahau he mea e rite ana ki te moana karaihe, he mea whakananu ki te kapura; me te hunga i kaha i te kararehe, i tona whakapakoko hoki, i tana tohu, i te whika ano hoki o tona ingoa, e tu ana i runga i te moana karaihe, kei a ratou ano ng a hapa a te Atua.
I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who overcame the beast, his image, and the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.
3 Kei te waiata hoki ratou i te waiata a Mohi, pononga a te Atua, me te waiata ano a te Reme; i mea ratou, He nui au mahi, e miharotia ana, e te Ariki, e te Atua Kaha Rawa; tika tonu ou ara, pono tonu, e te Kingi o nga whakatupuranga.
They sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, “Great and marvellous are your works, Lord God, the Almighty! Righteous and true are your ways, you King of the nations.
4 Ko wai e kore e wehi i a koe, e te Ariki, e kore hoki e whakakororia i tou ingoa? ko koe anake hoki te tapu ana; ka haere mai hoki nga tauiwi katoa, ka koropiko ki tou aroaro; kua whakakitea hoki au tikanga tika.
Who wouldn’t fear you, Lord, and glorify your name? For you only are holy. For all the nations will come and worship before you. For your righteous acts have been revealed.”
5 A i muri iho i enei mea ka kite ahau, na kua puare te whare tapu o te tapenakara o te whakaaturanga i te rangi:
After these things I looked, and the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened.
6 Na ka puta mai i roto i te whare tapu nga anahera e whitu, i a ratou nei nga whiu e whitu, he mea tatai ki te kohatu utu nui, kahore he koha, kanapa tonu, a ko o ratou uma he mea whitiki ki te whitiki koura.
The seven angels who had the seven plagues came out, clothed with pure, bright linen, and wearing golden sashes around their chests.
7 A ka hoatu e tetahi o nga mea ora e wha ki nga anahera e whitu etahi oko koura e whitu, ki tonu i te riri o te Atua e ora nei a ake ake. (aiōn g165)
One of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever. (aiōn g165)
8 Na kua ki te whare tapu i te paoa, he mea na te kororia o te Atua, na tona kaha hoki: kihai hoki tetahi tangata i ahei te tomo ki te whare tapu, kia mutu ra ano nga whiu e whitu a nga anahera e whitu.
The temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power. No one was able to enter into the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels would be finished.
