Pahayag 5

1 Pagkatapos nakita ko sa kanang kamay ng isa na siyang nakaupo sa trono, isang balumbon na nakasulat sa harapang panig at sa likurang panig, at sinelyuhan ng pitong selyo.

And I saw lying in the right hand of Him who sat on the throne a book written on both sides and closely sealed with seven seals.

2 Nakita ko ang isang makapangyarihang anghel na naghahayag ng may malakas ng tinig, “Sino ang karapat-dapat magbukas ng balumbon at sirain ang mga selyo nito?”

And I saw a mighty angel who was exclaiming in a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the book and break its seals?"

3 Walang sinuman sa langit o sa lupa o sa ilalim ng lupa ang kayang buksan ang balumbon o basahin ito.

But no one in Heaven, or on earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book or look into it.

4 Maramdamin akong umiyak dahil walang sinuman ang nakatagpo na karapat-dapat para buksan ang balumbon o basahin ito.

And while I was weeping bitterly, because no one was found worthy to open the book or look into it,

5 Pero sinabi sa akin ng isa sa mga nakatatanda, “Huwag kang umiyak. Tingnan mo! Ang Leon sa lipi ng Juda, ang Ugat ni David, ay nalupig, at kaya niyang buksan ang balumbon at ang mga selyo nito.”

one of the Elders said to me, "Do not weep. The Lion which belongs to the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has triumphed, and will open the book and break its seven seals."

6 Sa pagitan ng trono at ng apat na buhay na mga nilalang at sa kalagitnaan ng mga nakatatanda, nakita ko ang isang Kordero na nakatayo, nagmamasid na kahit siya ay pinatay. Mayroon siyang pitong mga sungay at pitong mga mata — ito ay ang pitong espiritu ng Diyos na ipinadala sa lahat ng dako ng lupa.

Then, midway between the throne and the four living creatures, I saw a Lamb standing among the Elders. He looked as if He had been offered in sacrifice, and He had seven horns and seven eyes. The last-named are the seven Spirits of God, and have been sent far and wide into all the earth.

7 Pumunta siya at kinuha ang balumbon mula sa kanang kamay ng isa na siyang nakaupo sa trono.

So He comes, and now He has taken the book out of the right hand of Him who is seated on the throne.

8 Nang nakuha niya ang balumbon, ang apat na buhay na nilalang at ang dalawampu't apat na nakatatanda ay inihiga ang kanilang mga sarili sa lupa sa harap ng Kordero. Ang bawat isa sa kanila ay may isang alpa at isang gintong mangkok na puno ng insenso — kung saan ang mga panalangin ng mga mananampalataya.

And when He had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four Elders fell down before the Lamb, having each of them a harp and bringing golden bowls full of incense, which represent the prayers of God's people.

9 Umawit sila ng bagong awit: “Ikaw ay karapat-dapat kumuha ng balumbon at buksan ang mga selyo nito. Dahil ikaw ay pinatay at sa pamamagitan ng iyong dugo, binili mo ang mga tao para sa Diyos mula sa bawat lipi, wika, mga tao, at bansa.

And now they sing a new song. "It is fitting," they say, "that Thou shouldst be the One to take the book And break its seals; Because Thou hast been offered in sacrifice, And hast purchased for God with Thine own blood Some out of every tribe and language and people and nation,

10 Ginawa mo silang isang kaharian at mga pari para maglingkod sa ating Diyos at sila ay maghahari sa mundo.

And hast formed them into a Kingdom to be priests to our God, And they reign over the earth."

11 Pagkatapos nakita ko at narinig ang tunog ng maraming mga anghel sa palibot ng trono, — ang kanilang bilang ay 200, 000, 000 — at ang mga buhay na nilalang at mga nakatatanda.

And I looked, and heard what seemed to be the voices of countless angels on every side of the throne, and of the living creatures and the Elders. Their number was myriads of myriads and thousands of thousands,

12 Kanilang sinabi sa malakas na tinig, “Karapat-dapat ang Kordero na pinatay na tumanggap ng kapangyarihan, kayamanan, karunungan, kalakasan, karangalan, kaluwalhatian at kapurihan.”

and in loud voices they were singing, "It is fitting that the Lamb which has been offered in sacrifice should receive all power and riches and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing."

13 Narinig ko bawat bagay na nasa langit, at sa lupa, at sa ilalim ng lupa at sa dagat — lahat ng bagay sa kanila — sinasabing: “Sa kaniya na siyang nakaupo sa trono, at sa Kordero, ay ang kapurihan, karangalan, kaluwalhatian, at kapangyarihan para mamahala, magpakailan pa man. (aiōn g165)

And as for every created thing in Heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and everything that was in any of these, I heard them say, "To Him who is seated on the throne, And to the Lamb, Be ascribed all blessing and honor And glory and might, Until the Ages of the Ages!" (aiōn g165)

14 Ang apat na buhay na nilalang ay sinabing'”Amen” at ang mga nakatatanda ay humiga at sumamba.

Then the four living creatures said "Amen," and the Elders fell down and worshipped.
