प्रकाश 20
1 तब मैले स्वर्गबाट तल झरिरहेको एउटा स्वर्गदूतलाई देखेँ । उनीसँग अगाध खाँदको साँचो र एउटा ठुलो साङ्लो उनको हातमा थियो । (Abyssos g12)
And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the abyss, and a great chain in his hand. (Abyssos g12)
2 उनले अजिङ्गर अर्थात् त्यो प्राचीन सर्पलाई पक्रे, जो दुष्ट वा शैतान हो । उनले त्यसलाई एक हजार वर्षका निम्ति बाँधे ।
And he laid hold of the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
3 उनले त्यसलाई अगाद खाँदमा फालिदिए र यसलाई बन्द गरे र त्यसमाथि मोहोर लगाइदिए । एक हजार वर्ष पुरा नभएसम्म त्यसले जाति-जातिहरूलाई छल गर्न नपाओस् भनी यसो गरिएको थियो । त्यसपछि त्यसलाई केही समयका निम्ति स्वतन्त्र गरिनुपर्छ । (Abyssos g12)
and threw him into the abyss, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be completed: and after this he must be loosed for a little while. (Abyssos g12)
4 अनि मैले सिंहासनहरू देखेँ । त्यसमाथि बस्नुहुनेलाई न्याय गर्ने अधिकार दिइएको थियो । मैले परमेश्वरको वचन र येशूको गवाहीका निम्ति शिर काटिएका आत्माहरूलाई पनि देखेँ । तिनीहरूले पशु वा मूर्तिहरूलाई आराधना गरेनन्, र तिनीहरूले आफ्नो निधारमा वा हातमा छाप लगाउनलाई इन्कार गरे । तिनीहरू जीवित भए, र येशूसँगै एक हजार वर्षसम्म राज्य गरे ।
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and the power of judging was given to them; and I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God; and of those who had not worshiped the beast, nor his image, and had not received his mark on their forehead, nor on their hand: and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 बाँकी रहेका मृतकहरू हजार वर्षको अन्त्य नभएसम्म जीवित भएनन् । यो पहिलो पुनरुत्थान हो ।
But the rest of the dead lived not till the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection.
6 पहिलो पुनरुत्थानमा सहभागी हुनेहरू जो कोही पनि पवित्र र धन्यका हुन् । यिनीहरूमाथि दोस्रो मृत्युको कुनै शक्ति हुँदैन । तिनीहरूले परमेश्वर र ख्रीष्टका पुजारीहरू भएर एक हजार वर्षसम्म उहाँसँगै राज्य गर्नेछन् ।
Blessed and holy is he that has part in the first resurrection; over such the second death has no power: but they shall be priests of God and of the Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7 जब एक हजार वर्षको अन्त्य हुन्छ, तब शैतानलाई त्यसको कैदबाट छोडिनेछ ।
And when the thousand years shall have been completed, Satan shall be loosed from his prison,
8 पृथ्वीको चारै कुनामा भएका जातिहरूलाई छल गर्न त्यो बहिर जानेछ, गोग र मागोगले तिनीहरूलाई युद्धका निम्ति सँगै ल्याउनेछन् । तिनीहरू समुद्रको बालुवासरह अनगिन्ती हुनेछन् ।
and shall go out to deceive the nations that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to bring them together to battle: the number of these is as the sand of the sea.
9 तिनीहरू पृथ्वीको चारैतिर गएर विश्वासीहरूको छाउनीवरिपरि र प्रिय सहरलाई घेरे । तर स्वर्गबाट आगो तल झरेर तिनीहरूलाई नष्ट पार्यो ।
And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and encompassed the camp of the saints, and the beloved city: and fire came down out of heaven from God, and devoured them.
11 त्यसपछि मैले एउटा महान् सेतो सिंहासन र त्यसमाथि विराजमान हुनुहुनेलाई देखेँ । उहाँको उपस्थितिबाट स्वर्ग र पृथ्वी भागेर टाढा गए, तर तिनीहरूका लागि जान त्यहाँ कुनै ठाउँ थिएन ।
And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and no place was found for them.
12 मैले शक्तिशाली र कमजोर मृतकहरूलाई सिंहासनको अगाडि उभिरहेको देखेँ र पुस्तकहरू खोलिए । तब अर्को पुस्तक अर्थात् जीवनको पुस्तक पनि खोलिएको थियो । ती पुस्तकहरूमा लेखिएका विवरणअनुसार तिनीहरूका कामहरूका आधारमा मृतकहरूको न्याय भयो ।
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before the throne; and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of the things that were written in the books, according to their works.
13 समुद्रमा भएका मृतकहरूलाई त्यसले फिर्ता गरिदियो । मृत्यु र पातालले तिनीहरूमा भएका मृतकहरूलाई दिए, र तिनीहरूले गरेका कामअनुसार मृतकहरूको न्याय भयो । (Hadēs g86)
And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and hades gave up the dead that were in them; and they were judged, every one according to his works. (Hadēs g86)
