प्रकाश 20
1 तब मैले स्वर्गबाट तल झरिरहेको एउटा स्वर्गदूतलाई देखेँ । उनीसँग अगाध खाँदको साँचो र एउटा ठुलो साङ्लो उनको हातमा थियो । (Abyssos g12)
I saw an angel coming down out of 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 ।
He seized the dragon, the old serpent, who is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, 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 cast him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time. (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 ।
I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgement was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and such as didn’t worship the beast nor his image, and didn’t receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
5 बाँकी रहेका मृतकहरू हजार वर्षको अन्त्य नभएसम्म जीवित भएनन् । यो पहिलो पुनरुत्थान हो ।
The rest of the dead didn’t live 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 who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him one thousand years.
7 जब एक हजार वर्षको अन्त्य हुन्छ, तब शैतानलाई त्यसको कैदबाट छोडिनेछ ।
And after the thousand years, Satan will be released 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 he will come out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, 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 ।
They went up over the width of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. 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 ।
I saw a great white throne and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. 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 ।
I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged out of the 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)
The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works. (Hadēs g86)
