رُؤيا 22

١ 1 وَأَرَانِي نَهْرًا صَافِيًا مِنْ مَاءِ حَيَاةٍ لَامِعًا كَبَلُّورٍ، خَارِجًا مِنْ عَرْشِ ٱللهِ وَٱلْخَرُوفِ.

And the angel showed me ‘a river of the Water of Life,’ as clear as crystal, issuing from the throne of God and of the Lamb,

٢ 2 فِي وَسَطِ سُوقِهَا وَعَلَى ٱلنَّهْرِ مِنْ هُنَا وَمِنْ هُنَاكَ، شَجَرَةُ حَيَاةٍ تَصْنَعُ ٱثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ ثَمَرَةً، وَتُعْطِي كُلَّ شَهْرٍ ثَمَرَهَا، وَوَرَقُ ٱلشَّجَرَةِ لِشِفَاءِ ٱلْأُمَمِ.

in the middle of the street of the City. On each side of the river was a Tree of Life which bore twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

٣ 3 وَلَا تَكُونُ لَعْنَةٌ مَا فِي مَا بَعْدُ. وَعَرْشُ ٱللهِ وَٱلْخَرُوفِ يَكُونُ فِيهَا، وَعَبِيدُهُ يَخْدِمُونَهُ.

‘Every thing that is accursed will cease to be.’ The throne of God and of the Lamb will be within it, and his servants will worship him;

٤ 4 وَهُمْ سَيَنْظُرُونَ وَجْهَهُ، وَٱسْمُهُ عَلَى جِبَاهِهِمْ.

they will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.

٥ 5 وَلَا يَكُونُ لَيْلٌ هُنَاكَ، وَلَا يَحْتَاجُونَ إِلَى سِرَاجٍ أَوْ نُورِ شَمْسٍ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ ٱلْإِلَهَ يُنِيرُ عَلَيْهِمْ، وَهُمْ سَيَمْلِكُونَ إِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ. (aiōn g165)

Night will cease to be. They have no need of the light of a lamp, nor have they the light of the sun; for the ‘Lord God will be their light, and they will reign for ever and ever.’ (aiōn g165)

٦ 6 ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي: «هَذِهِ ٱلْأَقْوَالُ أَمِينَةٌ وَصَادِقَةٌ. وَٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ أَرْسَلَ مَلَاكَهُ لِيُرِيَ عَبِيدَهُ مَا يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَكُونَ سَرِيعًا».

Then the angel said to me — ‘These words may be trusted and are true. The Lord, the God that inspires the Prophets, sent his angel to show his servants what must quickly take place;

٧ 7 «هَا أَنَا آتِي سَرِيعًا. طُوبَى لِمَنْ يَحْفَظُ أَقْوَالَ نُبُوَّةِ هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ».

and he said “I will come quickly.” Blessed will he be who lays to heart the words of the prophecy contained in this book.’

٨ 8 وَأَنَا يُوحَنَّا ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَنْظُرُ وَيَسْمَعُ هَذَا. وَحِينَ سَمِعْتُ وَنَظَرْتُ، خَرَرْتُ لِأَسْجُدَ أَمَامَ رِجْلَيِ ٱلْمَلَاكِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يُرِينِي هَذَا.

It was I, John, who heard and saw these things; and, when I heard and saw them, I prostrated myself in worship at the feet of the angel that showed them to me.

٩ 9 فَقَالَ لِيَ: «ٱنْظُرْ لَا تَفْعَلْ! لِأَنِّي عَبْدٌ مَعَكَ وَمَعَ إِخْوَتِكَ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ، وَٱلَّذِينَ يَحْفَظُونَ أَقْوَالَ هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ. ٱسْجُدْ لِلهِ!».

But he said to me — ‘Forbear; I am your fellow-servant, and the fellow-servant of your Brothers, the Prophets, and of all who lay to heart the words in this book. Worship God.’

١٠ 10 وَقَالَ لِي: «لَا تَخْتِمْ عَلَى أَقْوَالِ نُبُوَّةِ هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلْوَقْتَ قَرِيبٌ.

Then the angel said to me — ‘Do not keep secret the words of the prophecy contained in this book; for The Time is near.

١١ 11 مَنْ يَظْلِمْ فَلْيَظْلِمْ بَعْدُ. وَمَنْ هُوَ نَجِسٌ فَلْيَتَنَجَّسْ بَعْدُ. وَمَنْ هُوَ بَارٌّ فَلْيَتَبَرَّرْ بَعْدُ. وَمَنْ هُوَ مُقَدَّسٌ فَلْيَتَقَدَّسْ بَعْدُ».

Let the wrong-doer continue to do wrong; the filthy-minded man continue to be filthy; the righteous man continue to act righteously; and the holy-minded man continue to be holy.’

١٢ 12 «وَهَا أَنَا آتِي سَرِيعًا وَأُجْرَتِي مَعِي لِأُجَازِيَ كُلَّ وَاحِدٍ كَمَا يَكُونُ عَمَلُهُ.

(‘I will come quickly. I bring my rewards with me, to give to each man what his actions deserve.

١٣ 13 أَنَا ٱلْأَلِفُ وَٱلْيَاءُ، ٱلْبِدَايَةُ وَٱلنِّهَايَةُ، ٱلْأَوَّلُ وَٱلْآخِرُ».

I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.’)

١٤ 14 طُوبَى لِلَّذِينَ يَصْنَعُونَ وَصَايَاهُ لِكَيْ يَكُونَ سُلْطَانُهُمْ عَلَى شَجَرَةِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ، وَيَدْخُلُوا مِنَ ٱلْأَبْوَابِ إِلَى ٱلْمَدِينَةِ،

Blessed will they be who wash their robes, that they may have the right to approach the Tree of Life, and may enter the City by the gates.

١٥ 15 لِأَنَّ خَارِجًا ٱلْكِلَابَ وَٱلسَّحَرَةَ وَٱلزُّنَاةَ وَٱلْقَتَلَةَ وَعَبَدَةَ ٱلْأَوْثَانِ، وَكُلَّ مَنْ يُحِبُّ وَيَصْنَعُ كَذِبًا.

Outside will be the filthy, the sorcerers, the impure, the murderers, the idolaters, and all who love the false and live it.’

١٦ 16 «أَنَا يَسُوعُ، أَرْسَلْتُ مَلَاكِي لِأَشْهَدَ لَكُمْ بِهَذِهِ ٱلْأُمُورِ عَنِ ٱلْكَنَائِسِ. أَنَا أَصْلُ وَذُرِّيَّةُ دَاوُدَ. كَوْكَبُ ٱلصُّبْحِ ٱلْمُنِيرُ».

‘I, Jesus, sent my angel to bear testimony to you about these things before the Churches. I am the Scion and the Offspring of David, the bright Star of the Morning.’

١٧ 17 وَٱلرُّوحُ وَٱلْعَرُوسُ يَقُولَانِ: «تَعَالَ!». وَمَنْ يَسْمَعْ فَلْيَقُلْ: «تَعَالَ!». وَمَنْ يَعْطَشْ فَلْيَأْتِ. وَمَنْ يُرِدْ فَلْيَأْخُذْ مَاءَ حَيَاةٍ مَجَّانًا.

‘Come,’ say the Spirit and the Bride; and let him who hears say ‘Come.’ Let him who thirsts come; let him who will take the Water of Life freely.

١٨ 18 لِأَنِّي أَشْهَدُ لِكُلِّ مَنْ يَسْمَعُ أَقْوَالَ نُبُوَّةِ هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ: إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَزِيدُ عَلَى هَذَا، يَزِيدُ ٱللهُ عَلَيْهِ ٱلضَّرَبَاتِ ٱلْمَكْتُوبَةَ فِي هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ.

I declare to all who hear the words of the prophecy contained in this book — ‘If anyone adds to it, God will add to his troubles the Curses described in this book;

١٩ 19 وَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَحْذِفُ مِنْ أَقْوَالِ كِتَابِ هَذِهِ ٱلنُّبُوَّةِ، يَحْذِفُ ٱللهُ نَصِيبَهُ مِنْ سِفْرِ ٱلْحَيَاةِ، وَمِنَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ ٱلْمُقَدَّسَةِ، وَمِنَ ٱلْمَكْتُوبِ فِي هَذَا ٱلْكِتَابِ.

and if any one takes away any of the words in the book containing this prophecy, God will take away his share in the Tree of Life, and in the Holy City — as described in this book.’

٢٠ 20 يَقُولُ ٱلشَّاهِدُ بِهَذَا: «نَعَمْ! أَنَا آتِي سَرِيعًا». آمِينَ. تَعَالَ أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّبُّ يَسُوعُ.

He whose testimony this is says — ‘Assuredly I will come quickly.’ ‘Amen, come, Lord Jesus.’

٢١ 21 نِعْمَةُ رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ مَعَ جَمِيعِكُمْ. آمِينَ.

May the blessing of the Lord Jesus Christ, be with his People.
