< प्रकाश 5 >
1 तब सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुहुनेको दाहिने हाततिर सातवटा छाप लगाएर यसलाई बन्द गरिएको अगाडि र पछाडि लेखिएको एउटा चर्मपत्रको मुट्ठो मैले देखेँ ।
And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
2 “यस मुट्ठोलाई खोल्न र यसका छापहरूलाई तोड्न को योग्यको छ?” भनी एक जना शक्तिशाली स्वर्गदूतले चर्को सोरमा घोषणा गरेको मैले देखेँ ।
And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose its seals?
3 स्वर्गमा वा यस पृथ्वीमा वा यस पृथ्वीमुनि भएका कसैले पनि यस मुट्ठोलाई खोल्न वा यसलाई पढ्न सकेन ।
And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look upon it.
4 म दुःखित भएर रोएँ, किनकि यस मुट्ठोलाई खोल्न र पढ्न योग्यको कोही पनि भेट्टाइएन ।
And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open, and to read the book, neither to look upon it.
5 तर ती एल्डरहरूमध्येका एक जनाले मलाई भने, “नरोऊ । हेर! यहूदाको कुलको सिँह, दाऊदको मुलले विजय प्राप्त गर्नुभएको छ । त्यो मुट्ठो र त्यसका सातवटा छाप खोल्न उहाँ योग्यका हुनुहुन्छ ।”
And one of the elders saith to me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose its seven seals.
6 मैले सिंहासन र चारवटा जीवित प्राणी र एल्डरहरूका बिचमा मारिएको जस्तो देखिनुहुने एउटा थुमालाई उभिरहेको देखेँ । उहाँका सातवटा सिङ र सातवटा आँखा थिए । यी सारा संसारभरि पठाइएका परमेश्वरका सात आत्मा हुन् ।
And I beheld, and lo, in the midst of the throne, and of the four living beings, and in the midst of the elders stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
7 उहाँ जानुभयो र सिंहासनमा बसिरहनुहुनेको दाहिने हातबाट त्यस मुट्ठोलाई समात्नुभयो ।
And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
8 जब उहाँले त्यो मुट्ठोलाई लिनुभयो, ती चारवटा जीवित प्राणी र चौबिस जना एल्डर उहाँको अगाडि घोप्टो परे । तिनीहरू हरेकसँग वीणा र धूपले भरिएका सुनका धुपौराहरू थियो, जुन विश्वासीहरूका प्रार्थना हुन् ।
And when he had taken the book, the four living beings, and four [and] twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are the prayers of saints.
9 तिनीहरूले एउटा नयाँ गीत गाएः “तपाईं त्यो मुट्ठोलाई लिन र त्यसका छापहरूलाई खोल्न योग्यका हुनुहुन्छ । किनकि तपाईं मारिनुभयो, र तपाईंको रगतले हरेक जाति, भाषा, मानिस र राष्ट्रलाई तपाईंले परमेश्वरका निम्ति किन्नुभयो ।
And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals of it: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and language, and people, and nation;
10 परमेश्वरको सेवा गर्न तपाईंले तिनीहरूलाई राज्य र पुजारीहरू बनाउनुभयो, र तिनीहरूले पृथ्वीमा राज्य गर्नेछन् ।”
And hast made us to our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
11 तब मैले हेरेँ र सिंहासन, जीवित प्राणीहरू र एल्डरहरूका वरिपरि धेरै स्वर्गदूतका आवाजलाई सुनेँ । तिनीहरूको पुरा सङ्ख्या दसौँ हजार र हजारै हजार थियो ।
And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, and the living beings, and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
12 तिनीहरूले चर्को सोरमा यसो भने, “शक्ति, धन, बुद्धि, बल, आदर, महिमा र प्रशंसा प्राप्त गर्न मारिनुभएका थुमा योग्यका हुनुहुन्छ ।”
Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honor, and glory, and blessing.
13 स्वर्गमा, पृथ्वीमा, पृथ्वीमुनि र समुद्रमुनि सृष्टि गरिएका हरेक थोकले यसो भनेको मैले सुनेँ, “उहाँ जो सिंहासनमा विराजमान हुनुहुने र थुमालाई, प्रशंसा, आदर, महिमा र राज्य गर्ने शक्ति सदासर्वदा होस् ।” (aiōn )
And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, I heard saying, Blessing, and honor, and glory, and power, [be] to him that sitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb for ever and ever. (aiōn )
14 ती चारैवटा जीवित प्राणीले भने, “आमेन ।” र एल्डरहरू आफैँ घोप्टो परेर आराधना गरे । [टिपोटः पुरानो संस्करणमा यसरी लेखिएको छ] चौबिस एल्डर आफैँ घोप्टो परेर सदासर्वदा रहिरहनुहुनेलाई आराधना गरे ।
And the four living beings said, Amen. And the four [and] twenty elders fell down and worshiped him that liveth for ever and ever.
