Apocalipsis 1
1 LA revelacion de Jesu-Cristo, que Dios le dió, para manifestar á sus siervos las cosas que deben suceder presto: y [las] declaró, enviándo[la] por su ángel á Juan su siervo,
The revelation given by Jesus Christ, which God granted Him, that He might make known to His servants certain events which must shortly come to pass: and He sent His angel and communicated it to His servant John.
2 El cual ha dado testimonio de la palabra de Dios, y del testimonio de Jesu-Cristo, y de todas las cosas que ha visto.
This is the John who taught the truth concerning the Word of God and the truth told us by Jesus Christ-- a faithful account of what he had seen.
3 Bienaventurado el que lee, y las que oyen las palabras de esta profecía, y guardan las cosas en ella escritas; porque el tiempo [está] cerca.
Blessed is he who reads and blessed are those who listen to the words of this prophecy and lay to heart what is written in it; for the time for its fulfillment is now close at hand.
4 JUAN á las siete iglesias que [están] en Asia: Gracia [sea] con vosotros, y paz del que es, y que era, y que ha de venir, y de los siete espíritus que están delante de su trono;
John sends greetings to the seven Churches in the province of Asia. May grace be granted to you, and peace, from Him who is and was and evermore will be; and from the seven Spirits which are before His throne;
5 Y de Jesu-Cristo, [que es] el testigo fiel, primogénito de los muertos, y el Príncipe de los reyes de la tierra. Al que nos amó, y nos ha lavado de nuestros pecados con su sangre,
and from Jesus Christ, the truthful witness, the first of the dead to be born to Life, and the Ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins with His own blood,
6 Y nos ha hecho reyes y sacerdotes para Dios, y su Padre; á el [sea] gloria é imperio para siempre jamás. Amen. (aiōn g165)
and has formed us into a Kingdom, to be priests to God, His Father--to Him be ascribed the glory and the power until the Ages of the Ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Hé aquí que viene con las nubes, y todo ojo lo verá, y los que lo traspasaron; y todos los linajes de la tierra se lamentarán sobre él. Así sea. Amen.
He is coming in the clouds, and every eye will see Him, and so will those who pierced Him; and all the nations of the earth will gaze on Him and mourn. Even so. Amen.
8 Yo soy el Alpha y la Omega, el principio y fin, dice el Señor, que es, y que era, y que ha de venir, el Todopoderoso.
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "He who is and was and evermore will be--the Ruler of all."
9 Yo Juan vuestro hermano, y participante en la tribulacion, y en el reino, y en la paciencia de Jesu-Cristo, estaba en la isla que es llamada Patmos por la palabra de Dios y el testimonio de Jesu-Cristo.
I John, your brother, and a sharer with you in the sorrows and Kingship and patient endurance of Jesus, found myself in the island of Patmos, on account of the Word of God and the truth told us by Jesus.
10 Yo fuí en Espíritu en el dia de Domingo, y oí detrás de mí una gran voz como de trompeta,
In the Spirit I found myself present on the day of the Lord, and I heard behind me a loud voice which resembled the blast of a trumpet.
11 Que decia: Yo soy el Alpha y Omega, el primero y el último: Escribe en un libro lo que ves, y envía[lo] á las siete iglesias, que están en Asia; á Efeso, y á Smirna, y á Pérgamo, y á Tiatira, y á Sardis, y á Filadelfia, y á Laodicéa.
It said, "Write forthwith in a roll an account of what you see, and send it to the seven Churches--to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyateira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea."
12 Y me volví á ver la voz que hablaba conmigo: y vuelto, ví siete candeleros de oro;
I turned to see who it was that was speaking to me; and then I saw seven golden lampstands,
13 Y en medio de los siete candeleros, [uno] semejante al Hijo del hombre vestido de una ropa que llegaba hasta los piés, y ceñido por los pechos con una cinta de oro;
and in the center of the lampstands some One resembling the Son of Man, clothed in a robe which reached to His feet, and with a girdle of gold across His breast.
14 Y su cabeza y [sus] cabellos [eran] blancos como la lana blanca, como la nieve, y sus ojos como llama de fuego;
His head and His hair were white, like white wool--as white as snow; and His eyes resembled a flame of fire.
15 Y sus piés, semejantes al laton fino, ardientes como en un horno; y su voz como ruido de muchas aguas.
His feet were like silver-bronze, when it is white-hot in a furnace; and His voice resembled the sound of many waters.
16 Y tenia en su diestra siete estrellas: y de su boca salia una espada aguda de dos filos. Y su rostro [era] como el sol [cuando] resplandece en su fuerza.
In His right hand He held seven stars, and a sharp, two-edged sword was seen coming from His mouth; and His glance resembled the sun when it is shining with its full strength.
17 Y cuando yo le ví, caí como muerto á sus piés. Y él puso su diestra sobre mí, diciéndome: No temas: Yo soy el primero y el último;
When I saw Him, I fell at His feet as if I were dead. But He laid His right hand upon me and said, "Do not be afraid: I am the First and the Last, and the ever-living One.
19 Escribe las cosas que has visto, y las que son, y las que han de ser despues de estas:
Write down therefore the things you have just seen, and those which are now taking place, and those which are soon to follow:
20 El misterio de las siete estrellas que has visto en mi diestra, y los siete candeleros de oro. Las siete estrellas son los ángeles de las siete iglesias; y los siete candeleros que has visto, son las siete iglesias.
the secret meaning of the seven stars which you have seen in My right hand, and of the seven lampstands of gold. The seven stars are the ministers of the seven Churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven Churches.
