Uppenbarelseboken 15
1 Och jag såg ett annat tecken af himmelen, stort och underligit: Sju Änglar, som hade sju de yttersta plågor; ty med dem är fullkomnad Guds vrede.
Something else very unusual [appeared] in the sky. I saw seven angels, whose duty it was to [punish] (OR, inflict hardship upon) [rebellious people] with seven different plagues (OR, in seven different ways). God is so angry [with rebellious people that] this is the last [time that he will punish them with the purpose of giving them an opportunity to turn away from their sinful behavior].
2 Och jag såg såsom ett glashaf, beblandadt med eld, och dem stå på samma glashaf, som seger vunnit hade på vilddjuret, och dess beläte, och vedertecken, och på dess namns tal; och de hade Guds harpor.
I saw what looked like an ocean [that was made of] glass and mixed with fire. And I saw the people who overcame the beast [by not worshipping it] or its image, or [allowing its agent to mark them with] the number that corresponds to the beast’s name [PRS]. They were standing by the ocean [that looked like it was made] of glass. They had harps [for praising] God.
3 Och de söngo Mose, Guds tjenares, sång, och Lambsens sång, sägande: Stor och underlig äro din verk, Herre Gud allsvåldig; rättfärdige och sanne äro dine vägar, du helgonens Konung.
They were singing a song [like] God’s servant Moses [sang long ago]. They sang [like this to praise Jesus, the one who is like] a lamb: Lord God Almighty, whatever you do is powerful and marvelous! You always act righteously and truthfully. You are king forever!
4 Ho skulle icke frukta dig, Herre, och prisa ditt Namn? Ty du äst allena helig, och alle Hedningar skola komma och tillbedja i din åsyn; ty dine domar äro uppenbare vordne.
O Lord, you alone are holy! People of [MTY] all nations will come and worship you, because you show everyone that you have judged everyone righteously. So, everyone will fear you and honor you! [RHQ].
5 Sedan såg jag; och si, vittnesbördsens tabernakels tempel vardt öppnadt i himmelen;
After this, [in the vision] I saw in heaven the temple [that (corresponds to/was represented by]) the tent [that the Israelites pitched in the desert. That was the tent that contained] the [Ten Commandments. The temple door] was opened {was open}.
6 Och gingo derut af templet de sju Änglar, som de sju plågor hade, klädde uti rent, hvitt linkläde, och omgjordade kringom bröstet med gyldene bälte.
The seven angels [who had the bowls containing] the seven plagues came out of the temple. The angels were dressed in clean, white linen [garments], and they wore gold bands around their chests.
7 Och ett af de fyra djuren gaf de sju Änglar sju gyldene skålar, fulla med Guds vrede, den der lefver af evighet till evighet. (aiōn g165)
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn g165)
8 Och templet vardt uppfyldt med rök af Guds härlighet, och af hans kraft; och ingen kunde gå in i templet, till dess de sju plågor, som de sju Änglar hade, fullkomnade vordo.
The temple was filled with smoke [that symbolized] the presence of the glorious and all-powerful God. No one was able to enter the temple until the seven angels finished [pouring out] the seven plagues.
