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 bottomless pit 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 on the dragon, that 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 g12)
And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season. (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 on them, and judgment was given to them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark on their foreheads, or in their hands; 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 were finished. 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: on such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of 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 are expired, 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 shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog, and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom 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 compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of heaven, 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 on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place 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 God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which 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 which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. (Hadēs g86)
