Razodetje 17

1 In prišel je eden izmed sedmih angelov, ki so imeli sedem stekleničk in govoril z menoj ter mi rekel: »Pridi sèm, pokazal ti bom sodbo vélike vlačuge, ki sedi nad mnogimi vodami,

One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, "Come here. I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters,

2 s katero so kralji zemlje zagrešili prešuštvovanje, prebivalci zemlje pa so bili opiti z vinom njenega prešuštvovanja.«

with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality, and those who dwell in the earth were made drunk with the wine of her sexual immorality."

3 Tako me je v duhu odvedel proč v divjino in videl sem žensko sedeti na škrlatno obarvanem zverniku, polnem imen bogokletstev, ki je imel sedem glav in deset rogov.

He carried me away in the Ruach into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored animal, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.

4 In ženska je bila oblečena v vijolično in škrlatno [rdečo] barvo in odeta z zlatom in dragocenimi kamni in biseri in v svoji roki je imela zlato čašo polno ogabnosti in umazanosti svojega prešuštvovanja

The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality.

5 in na njenem čelu je bilo napisano ime: SKRIVNOST, VÉLIKA [METROPOLA] BABILON, MATI POCESTNIC IN OGABNOSTI ZEMLJE.

And on her forehead a name was written, "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH."

6 In videl sem žensko, pijano s krvjo svetih in s krvjo Jezusovih mučencev in ko sem jo zagledal, sem se čudil z veliko osuplostjo.

I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the kadoshim, and with the blood of the martyrs of Yeshua. When I saw her, I wondered with great amazement.

7 Angel pa mi je rekel: »Zakaj se čudiš? Povedal ti bom skrivnost ženske in zvernika, ki jo prenaša, ki ima sedem glav in deset rogov.

The angel said to me, "Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.

8 Zvernik, ki si ga videl, je bil in ga ni in vzpel se bo iz jame brez dna in šel v pogubo in tisti, ki prebivajo na zemlji, katerih imena od ustanovitve sveta niso bila zapisana v knjigi življenja, se bodo čudili, ko bodo gledali zvernika, ki je bil in ga ni, pa vendar je. (Abyssos g12)

The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss and is going to destruction. Those who dwell on the earth and whose names have not been written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see that the beast was, and is not, but is to come. (Abyssos g12)

9 In tukaj je um, ki ima modrost. Sedem glav je sedem gorá, na katerih sedi ženska.

Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.

10 In tam je sedem kraljev; pet je padlih in eden je, drugi pa še ni prišel; ko pa pride, mora kratek čas nadaljevati.

They are seven kings. Five have fallen, the one is, the other has not yet come. When he comes, he must continue a little while.

11 Zvernik pa, ki je bil in ga ni, je celó osmi in je izmed sedmih in gre v pogubo.

The beast that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goes to destruction.

12 In deset rogov, ki si jih videl, je deset kraljev, ki doslej še niso prejeli kraljestva, toda kot kralji prejmejo oblast z zvernikom za eno uro.

The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority as kings, with the beast, for one hour.

13 Ti imajo en um, svojo oblast in moč pa bodo dali zverniku.

These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.

14 Ti se bodo vojskovali z Jagnjetom, Jagnje pa jih bo premagalo, kajti on je Gospod gospodov in Kralj kraljev in tisti, ki so z njim, so poklicani in izbrani in zvesti.«

These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings. They also will overcome who are with him, called and chosen and faithful."

15 In rekel mi je: »Te vode, ki jih vidiš, kjer sedi vlačuga, so ljudje in množice in narodi in jeziki.

He said to me, "The waters which you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.

16 In deset rogov, ki si jih videl na zverniku, ti bodo sovražili vlačugo in naredili jo bodo opustošeno in nago in jedli bodo njeno meso ter jo sežgali z ognjem.

The ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the prostitute, and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire.

17 Kajti Bog je na njihova srca položil, da izpolnijo njegovo voljo in da se strinjajo in svoje kraljestvo izročijo zverniku, dokler ne bodo izpolnjene Božje besede.

For God has put in their hearts to do what he has in mind, and to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be accomplished.

18 Ženska pa, ki si jo videl, je to veliko mesto, ki kraljuje nad kralji zemlje.«

The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth."
