Apokalipsa 17
1 I doðe jedan od sedam anðela koji imahu sedam èaša, i govori sa mnom govoreæi mi: hodi da ti pokažem sud kurve velike, koja sjedi na vodama mnogima;
And one of the seven messengers who had the seven bowls came, and spake with me, saying—Hither! I will point out to thee the judgment of the great harlot, who sitteth upon many waters,
2 S kojom se kurvaše carevi zemaljski, i koji žive na zemlji opiše se vinom kurvarstva njezina.
with whom the kings of the earth committed lewdness, —and they who were dwelling upon the earth were made drunk with the wine of her lewdness.
3 I uvede me duh u pusto mjesto; i vidjeh ženu gdje sjedi na zvijeri crvenoj koja bješe puna imena hulnijeh i imaše sedam glava i deset rogova.
And he carried me away into a desert, in spirit. And I saw a woman, sitting upon a scarlet wild-beast full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 I žena bješe obuèena u porfiru i skerlet i nakiæena zlatom i kamenjem dragijem i biserom, i imaše èašu u ruci svojoj punu mrzosti i poganštine kurvarstva svojega;
And, the woman, was arrayed with purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stone and pearls, —having a cup of gold in her hand, full of abominations and the impurities of her lewdness;
5 I na èelu njezinu napisano ime: tajna, Vavilon veliki, mati kurvama i mrzostima zemaljskima.
and, upon her forehead, a name written, a secret: Babylon the great, the Mother of the Harlots and of the Abominations of the earth.
6 I vidjeh ženu pijanu od krvi svetijeh i od krvi svjedoka Isusovijeh; i zaèudih se èudom velikijem kad je vidjeh.
And I saw the woman, drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus. And I was astonished, when I beheld her, with great astonishment.
7 I reèe mi anðeo: šta se èudiš? Ja æu ti kazati tajnu ove žene, i zvijeri što je nosi i ima sedam glava i deset rogova.
And the messenger said unto me—Wherefore wast thou astonished? I, will tell thee the secret of the woman, and of the wild-beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and the ten horns.
8 Zvijer, koju si vidio bješe i nije, i iziæi æe iz bezdana i otiæi æe u propast; i udiviæe se koji žive na zemlji, kojima imena napisana nijesu u knjigu života od postanja svijeta, kad vide zvijer, koja bješe, i nije, i doæi æe opet. (Abyssos g12)
The wild-beast which thou sawest, was, and is not, and is about to come up out of the abyss, and into, destruction, goeth away. And they who are dwelling upon the earth whose name is not written upon the book of life from the foundation of the world, will be astonished, when they see the wild-beast, because it was, and is not, and shall be present. (Abyssos g12)
9 Ovdje je um, koji ima mudrost. Sedam glava, to su sedam gora na kojima žena sjedi.
Here, is the mind that hath wisdom. The seven heads, are, seven mountains, whereupon the woman sitteth;
10 I jesu sedam careva. Pet je njih palo, i jedan jest, a drugi još nije došao; i kad doðe za malo æe ostati.
and they are, seven kings: the five, have fallen, the one, is, the other, hath not yet come; and, whensoever he shall come, a little while, must he remain,
11 I zvijer koja bješe i nije, i ona je osmi, i jest od sedmorice i u propast ide.
and the wild-beast which was and is not. And he, is an eighth, and is, of the seven, —and, into destruction, goeth away.
12 I deset rogova, koje si vidio, to su deset careva, koji carstva još ne primiše, nego æe oblast kao carevi na jedno vrijeme primiti sa zvijeri.
And, the ten horns which thou sawest, are, ten kings, —who, indeed, have not received, sovereignty, as yet, but, authority, as kings, for one hour, shall receive, with the wild-beast.
13 Ovi jednu volju imaju, i silu i oblast svoju daæe zvijeri.
These, have, one mind, and, their power and authority, unto the wild-beast, they give.
14 Ovi æe se pobiti s jagnjetom, i jagnje æe ih pobijediti, jer je gospodar nad gospodarima i car nad carevima; i koji su s njim, jesu pozvani i izbrani i vjerni.
These, with the Lamb, will make war; and, the Lamb, will overcome them, because he is, Lord of lords, and King of kings, —and, they who are with him, are called and chosen and faithful.
15 I reèe mi: vode, što si vidio, gdje sjedi kurva, ono su ljudi i narodi, i plemena i jezici.
And he saith unto me—The waters which thou sawest, where the harlot sitteth, are, peoples and multitudes, and nations and tongues.
16 I deset rogova, što si vidio na zvijeri, oni æe omrznuti na kurvu, i opustošiæe je i ogoluzniti, i meso njezino poješæe i sažeæi æe je ognjem.
And the ten horns which thou sawest, and the wild-beast, these, shall hate the harlot, and, desolate, shall make her, and naked, and, her flesh, shall they eat, and, herself, shall they burn up with fire.
17 Jer je Bog dao u srca njihova da uèine volju njegovu, i da uèine volju jednu, i da dadu carstvo svoje zvijeri, dok se svrše rijeèi Božije.
For, God, hath put into their hearts, to do his mind, and to do one mind, —and to give their sovereignty unto the wild-beast, until the words of God shall be completed.
18 I žena, koju si vidio, jest grad veliki, koji ima carstvo nad carevima zemaljskima.
And, the woman whom thou sawest, is the great city, which hath sovereignty over the kings of the earth.
