رُؤيا 17
| ثُمَّ جَاءَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلسَّبْعَةِ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُمُ ٱلسَّبْعَةُ ٱلْجَامَاتُ، وَتَكَلَّمَ مَعِي قَائِلًا لِي: «هَلُمَّ فَأُرِيَكَ دَيْنُونَةَ ٱلزَّانِيَةِ ٱلْعَظِيمَةِ ٱلْجَالِسَةِ عَلَى ٱلْمِيَاهِ ٱلْكَثِيرَةِ، | ١ 1 |
One of the seven angels who had been holding the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the condemnation of the great prostitute who is seated on many waters.
| ٱلَّتِي زَنَى مَعَهَا مُلُوكُ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَسَكِرَ سُكَّانُ ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ خَمْرِ زِنَاهَا». | ٢ 2 |
It is with her that the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality. It is with the wine of her sexual immorality that the earth's inhabitants became drunk.”
| فَمَضَى بِي بِٱلرُّوحِ إِلَى بَرِّيَّةٍ، فَرَأَيْتُ ٱمْرَأَةً جَالِسَةً عَلَى وَحْشٍ قِرْمِزِيٍّ مَمْلُوءٍ أَسْمَاءَ تَجْدِيفٍ، لَهُ سَبْعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ وَعَشَرَةُ قُرُونٍ. | ٣ 3 |
Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit to a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names. The beast had seven heads and ten horns.
| وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ كَانَتْ مُتَسَرْبِلَةً بِأُرْجُوانٍ وَقِرْمِزٍ، وَمُتَحَلِّيَةً بِذَهَبٍ وَحِجَارَةٍ كَرِيمَةٍ وَلُؤْلُؤٍ، وَمَعَهَا كَأْسٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فِي يَدِهَا مَمْلُوَّةٌ رَجَاسَاتٍ وَنَجَاسَاتِ زِنَاهَا، | ٤ 4 |
The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet and was adorned with gold, precious stones, and pearls. She was holding in her hand a golden cup full of detestable things and the impurities of her sexual immorality.
| وَعَلَى جَبْهَتِهَا ٱسْمٌ مَكْتُوبٌ: «سِرٌّ. بَابِلُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ أُمُّ ٱلزَّوَانِي وَرَجَاسَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ٥ 5 |
On her forehead was written a name having a secret meaning: “Babylon the great, the mother of prostitutes and of the detestable things of the earth.”
| وَرَأَيْتُ ٱلْمَرْأَةَ سَكْرَى مِنْ دَمِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ وَمِنْ دَمِ شُهَدَاءِ يَسُوعَ. فَتَعَجَّبْتُ لَمَّا رَأَيْتُهَا تَعَجُّبًا عَظِيمًا! | ٦ 6 |
I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs for Jesus. When I saw her, I was greatly astonished.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي ٱلْمَلَاكُ: «لِمَاذَا تَعَجَّبْتَ؟ أَنَا أَقُولُ لَكَ سِرَّ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ وَٱلْوَحْشِ ٱلْحَامِلِ لَهَا، ٱلَّذِي لَهُ ٱلسَّبْعَةُ ٱلرُّؤُوسِ وَٱلْعَشَرَةُ ٱلْقُرُونِ: | ٧ 7 |
But the angel said to me, “Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the meaning of the woman and of the beast that is carrying her, the beast that has the seven heads and the ten horns.
| ٱلْوَحْشُ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتَ، كَانَ وَلَيْسَ ٱلْآنَ، وَهُوَ عَتِيدٌ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ مِنَ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ وَيَمْضِيَ إِلَى ٱلْهَلَاكِ. وَسَيَتَعَجَّبُ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، ٱلَّذِينَ لَيْسَتْ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ مَكْتُوبَةً فِي سِفْرِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ مُنْذُ تَأْسِيسِ ٱلْعَالَمِ، حِينَمَا يَرَوْنَ ٱلْوَحْشَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ وَلَيْسَ ٱلْآنَ، مَعَ أَنَّهُ كَائِنٌ. (Abyssos g12) | ٨ 8 |
The beast you saw existed, does not exist now, but is about to come up from the bottomless pit. Then it will go on to destruction. Those who live on the earth, those whose names have not been written in the Book of Life since the foundation of the world—they will be astounded when they see the beast that existed, does not exist now, but is about to come. (Abyssos g12)
| هُنَا ٱلذِّهْنُ ٱلَّذِي لَهُ حِكْمَةٌ! اَلسَّبْعَةُ ٱلرُّؤُوسِ هِيَ سَبْعَةُ جِبَالٍ عَلَيْهَا ٱلْمَرْأَةُ جَالِسَةً. | ٩ 9 |
This calls for a mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven hills on which the woman is seated.
| وَسَبْعَةُ مُلُوكٍ: خَمْسَةٌ سَقَطُوا، وَوَاحِدٌ مَوْجُودٌ، وَٱلْآخَرُ لَمْ يَأْتِ بَعْدُ. وَمَتَى أَتَى يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَبْقَى قَلِيلًا. | ١٠ 10 |
They are also seven kings. Five kings have fallen, one exists, and the other has not yet come; when he comes, he can remain only for a little while.
| وَٱلْوَحْشُ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ وَلَيْسَ ٱلْآنَ فَهُوَ ثَامِنٌ، وَهُوَ مِنَ ٱلسَّبْعَةِ، وَيَمْضِي إِلَى ٱلْهَلَاكِ. | ١١ 11 |
The beast that existed, but does not exist now, is itself also an eighth king; but it is one of those seven kings, and it is going to destruction.
| وَٱلْعَشَرَةُ ٱلْقُرُونِ ٱلَّتِي رَأَيْتَ هِيَ عَشَرَةُ مُلُوكٍ لَمْ يَأْخُذُوا مُلْكًا بَعْدُ، لَكِنَّهُمْ يَأْخُذُونَ سُلْطَانَهُمْ كَمُلُوكٍ سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً مَعَ ٱلْوَحْشِ. | ١٢ 12 |
The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they will receive authority as kings for one hour together with the beast.
| هَؤُلَاءِ لَهُمْ رَأْيٌ وَاحِدٌ، وَيُعْطُونَ ٱلْوَحْشَ قُدْرَتَهُمْ وَسُلْطَانَهُمْ. | ١٣ 13 |
These are of one mind, and they give over their power and authority to the beast.
| هَؤُلَاءِ سَيُحَارِبُونَ ٱلْخَرُوفَ، وَٱلْخَرُوفُ يَغْلِبُهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُ رَبُّ ٱلْأَرْبَابِ وَمَلِكُ ٱلْمُلُوكِ، وَٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ مَدْعُوُّونَ وَمُخْتَارُونَ وَمُؤْمِنُونَ». | ١٤ 14 |
They will wage war against the Lamb. But the Lamb will conquer them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings—and with him are the called ones, the chosen ones, and the faithful ones.”
| ثُمَّ قَالَ لِيَ: «ٱلْمِيَاهُ ٱلَّتِي رَأَيْتَ حَيْثُ ٱلزَّانِيَةُ جَالِسَةٌ، هِيَ شُعُوبٌ وَجُمُوعٌ وَأُمَمٌ وَأَلْسِنَةٌ. | ١٥ 15 |
The angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute is seated, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.
| وَأَمَّا ٱلْعَشَرَةُ ٱلْقُرُونِ ٱلَّتِي رَأَيْتَ عَلَى ٱلْوَحْشِ فَهَؤُلَاءِ سَيُبْغِضُونَ ٱلزَّانِيَةَ، وَسَيَجْعَلُونَهَا خَرِبَةً وَعُرْيَانَةً، وَيَأْكُلُونَ لَحْمَهَا وَيُحْرِقُونَهَا بِٱلنَّارِ. | ١٦ 16 |
The ten horns that you saw—they and the beast will hate the prostitute. They will make her desolate and naked, they will devour her flesh, and they will burn her completely with fire.
| لِأَنَّ ٱللهَ وَضَعَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ أَنْ يَصْنَعُوا رَأْيَهُ، وَأَنْ يَصْنَعُوا رَأْيًا وَاحِدًا، وَيُعْطُوا ٱلْوَحْشَ مُلْكَهُمْ حَتَّى تُكْمَلَ أَقْوَالُ ٱللهِ. | ١٧ 17 |
For God has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose by agreeing to give their power to rule to the beast until God's words are fulfilled.
| وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ ٱلَّتِي رَأَيْتَ هِيَ ٱلْمَدِينَةُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ ٱلَّتِي لَهَا مُلْكٌ عَلَى مُلُوكِ ٱلْأَرْضِ». | ١٨ 18 |
The woman you saw is the great city that rules over the kings of the earth.”
