< प्रकाश 20 >
1 तब मैले स्वर्गबाट तल झरिरहेको एउटा स्वर्गदूतलाई देखेँ । उनीसँग अगाध खाँदको साँचो र एउटा ठुलो साङ्लो उनको हातमा थियो । (Abyssos )
AND I saw an angel descending from heaven, having the key of the abyss of hell, and a great chain in his hand: (Abyssos )
2 उनले अजिङ्गर अर्थात् त्यो प्राचीन सर्पलाई पक्रे, जो दुष्ट वा शैतान हो । उनले त्यसलाई एक हजार वर्षका निम्ति बाँधे ।
and he seized on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, and bound him 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 )
and cast him into the abyss, and shut him up, and put a seal upon it, that he might deceive the nations no more until the thousand years are completed: and after that he must be loosed a short time. (Abyssos )
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 persons were seated upon them, and authority to judge 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 who had not worshipped the beast, nor his image, and had not received the brand in their foreheads, and upon their right 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 again until the thousand years are 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 hath part in the first resurrection; over these the second death hath no dominion: but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they 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 be completed, Satan shall be loosed out of 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 he shall go forth to deceive the nations that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number 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 encircled the camp of the saints, and the beloved city: and there came down fire from God out of heaven, and devoured them up.
10 तिनीहरूलाई छल गर्ने त्यस दुष्टलाई गन्धकको जलिरहेको कुण्डमा फालियो, जहाँ पशु र झुटा अगमवक्ता फ्याँकिएका थिए । तिनीहरूले दिनरात सदाकाल यातना भोग्नेछन् । (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
And the devil who deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and they shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
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 one sat upon it, from whose presence fled the earth and the heaven, 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, standing before God, 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 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 )
And the sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and the grave gave up the dead that were in them; and every one was judged according to his works. (Hadēs )
14 मृत्यु र पाताल अग्नि-कुण्डमा फालिए । यो अग्नि-कुण्ड दोस्रो मृत्यु हो । (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
And death and the grave were cast into the lake of fire: this is the second death. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
15 जीवनको पुस्तकमा कसैको नाउँ लेखिएको नभेट्टाइएमा त्यसलाई अग्नि-कुण्डमा फालियो । (Limnē Pyr )
And if any one was not found inscribed on the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
