प्रकाश 12
1 स्वर्गमा एउटा ठुलो चिह्न देखियोः सूर्य पहिरेकी तथा चन्द्रमालाई आफ्नो पैतलामुनि कुल्चेकी स्त्रीले बाह्रवटा तारा भएको मुकुटलाई पहिरेकी थिई ।
And there was a great sign in the heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars;
2 त्यो गर्भवती थिई, र बालक जन्माउने प्रसव-वेदनामा चिच्च्याइरहेकी थिई ।
and being in gestation, she also cries, travailing in pain, and suffering to bring forth.
3 त्यसपछि स्वर्गमा अर्को चिह्न देखियोः हेर! त्यहाँ ठुलो रातो सातवटा टाउका र दसवटा सिङ र त्यसको टाउकोमा सातवटा मुकुट लगाएको एउटा ठुलो रातो पशु थियो ।
And there appeared another sign in the heaven; and behold the great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads seven diadems:
4 त्यसको पुच्छरले स्वर्गमा भएको एक-तिहाइ तारालाई सोहोरेर तिनीहरूलाई पृथ्वीमा खसाल्यो । बालक जन्माउन लागेकी त्यस स्त्रीको अगि त्यो डरलाग्दो पशु उभियो ताकि त्यसले त्यसको बालकलाई जन्माउने बित्तिकै निल्न सकोस् ।
and his tail draws the third of the stars of the heaven, and casts them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman about to bring forth, in order that he may eat up her child when she may bring it forth.
5 त्यसले एउटा बालकलाई जन्माई, जसले फलामको लौरोसँगै सबै जातिमाथि शासन गर्नेछ । त्यसको बालकलाई खोसेर परमेश्वर र उहाँको सिंहासनतिर लगियो ।
And she brought forth a male son, who is about to shepherdize all the nations with an iron rod: and her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.
6 अनि त्यो स्त्री उजाड-स्थानभित्र भागी, जहाँ परमेश्वरले त्यसको निम्ति ठाउँ तयार पार्नुभएको थियो, ताकि बाह्र सय साठी दिनसम्म त्यसलाई हेरचाह गर्न सकियोस् ।
And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has there a place prepared of God, that they may there nourish her a thousand and two hundred and sixty days.
7 अब स्वर्गमा युद्ध भयो । मिखाएल र तिनका दूतहरूले त्यस पशुको विरुद्धमा लडाइँ गरे, अनि अजिङ्गर र त्यसका दूतहरूले पनि लडाइँ गरे ।
And there was war in the heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon.
8 तर जित्नका निम्ति त्यो अजिङ्गरसँग पर्याप्त बल थिएन । त्यसकारण, स्वर्गमा त्यसको र त्यसका दूतहरूका निम्ति कुनै ठाउँ भएन ।
And the dragon and his angels fought, and they did not prevail; neither was their place found any more in the heaven.
9 त्यो ठुलो अजिङ्गर अर्थात् प्राचीन सर्प जसलाई दुष्ट वा शैतान भनिन्थ्यो, जसले सारा संसारलाई छल गर्छ, त्यसलाई पृथ्वीमा फ्याँकियो र त्यसका दूतहरूलाई पनि त्यससँगै पृथ्वीमा फ्याँकियो ।
And the great dragon, the old serpent, the one called the devil, and Satan, the one deceiving the whole world, was cast out: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 तब मैले स्वर्गमा एउटा ठुलो आवाज सुनेँः “अब मुक्ति, शक्ति, हाम्रा परमेश्वरको राज्य, ख्रीष्टको अधिकार आएका छन् । किनभने हाम्रा भाइहरूलाई दोष लगाउने फ्याँकिएको छ, जसले परमेश्वरको सामु तिनीहरूलाई दिनरात दोष लगाउँथ्यो ।
And I heard a great voice in the heaven saying, Now has come salvation, and power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: because the accuser of our brethren, the one accusing them before our God day and night, is cast out.
11 तिनीहरूले त्यसलाई थुमाको रगतद्वारा र वचनको साक्षीद्वारा जिते, किनकि तिनीहरूले मृत्युसम्मै पनि आफ्नो जीवनलाई प्रेम गरेनन् ।
And they conquered him through the blood of the Lamb, and the word of their testimony; and with divine love they love not their life unto death.
12 त्यसकारण, हे स्वर्ग र त्यसमा रहनेहरू तिमीहरू सबै रमाओ । तर पृथ्वी र समुद्रलाई धिक्कार! किनकि शैतान तिमीहरूकहाँ तल गएको छ । त्यो डरलाग्दो रिसले भरिएको छ, किनभने त्योसँग थोरै मात्र समय छ भनेर त्यसलाई थाहा छ ।
Therefore rejoice, O ye heavens, and those dwelling in them; woe unto the earth and the sea! because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has little time.
13 आफू पृथ्वीमा फ्याँकिएको कुरा जब अजिङ्गरले महसुस गर्यो, तब त्यसले बालक जन्माउने स्त्रीलाई सतायो ।
And when the dragon saw that he was cast out into the earth, he persecuted the woman, who brought forth the male child.
14 अनि सर्पको उपस्थितिबाहिर तयार पारेको ठाउँ उजाड-स्थानमा उडेर जानका निम्ति त्यस स्त्रीलाई एउटा ठुलो गरुडको दुइवटा पखेटा दिइयो । यो त्यही ठाउँ थियो जहाँ त्यसलाई एक समय, समयहरू र आधा समयका निम्ति वास्ता गर्न सकिन्थ्यो ।
And the two wings of a great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly away into the wilderness, into her own place, where she is there nourished a time, and times, and a half time, from the face of the serpent.
15 त्यस स्त्रीलाई बाढीले बगाएर टाढा लैजाओस् भनेर त्यस सर्पले आफ्नो मुखबाट पानीको नदिजस्तै निकाल्यो ।
And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman water like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the river.
16 तर पृथ्वीले स्त्रीलाई सहायता गर्यो । अजिङ्गरले आफ्नो मुखबाट निकालेको नदी पृथ्वीले आफ्नो मुख उघारेर निल्यो ।
And the earth helped the woman; and the earth opened her mouth, and drank up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 त्यसपछि त्यो अजिङ्गर स्त्रीप्रति क्रोधित भयो अनि परमेश्वरको आज्ञा पालन गर्ने र येशूको बारेमा गवाही दिने त्यसका बाँकी रहेका सन्तानहरूसँग युद्ध गर्न गयो ।
And the dragon was enraged at the woman, and went away to make war with the remnant of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus.
