رُؤيا 8

١ 1 وَلَمَّا فَتَحَ ٱلْخَتْمَ ٱلسَّابِعَ حَدَثَ سُكُوتٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ نَحْوَ نِصْفِ سَاعَةٍ.

When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.

٢ 2 وَرَأَيْتُ ٱلسَّبْعَةَ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَقِفُونَ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ، وَقَدْ أُعْطُوا سَبْعَةَ أَبْوَاقٍ.

And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and they were given seven trumpets.

٣ 3 وَجَاءَ مَلَاكٌ آخَرُ وَوَقَفَ عِنْدَ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ، وَمَعَهُ مِبْخَرَةٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ، وَأُعْطِيَ بَخُورًا كَثِيرًا لِكَيْ يُقَدِّمَهُ مَعَ صَلَوَاتِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ جَمِيعِهِمْ عَلَى مَذْبَحِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي أَمَامَ ٱلْعَرْشِ.

Then another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, along with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the throne.

٤ 4 فَصَعِدَ دُخَانُ ٱلْبَخُورِ مَعَ صَلَوَاتِ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ مِنْ يَدِ ٱلْمَلَاكِ أَمَامَ ٱللهِ.

And the smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the hand of the angel.

٥ 5 ثُمَّ أَخَذَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلْمِبْخَرَةَ وَمَلَأَهَا مِنْ نَارِ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَأَلْقَاهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَحَدَثَتْ أَصْوَاتٌ وَرُعُودٌ وَبُرُوقٌ وَزَلْزَلَةٌ.

Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it to the earth; and there were peals of thunder, and rumblings, and flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.

٦ 6 ثُمَّ إِنَّ ٱلسَّبْعَةَ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُمُ ٱلسَّبْعَةُ ٱلْأَبْوَاقُ تَهَيَّأُوا لِكَيْ يُبَوِّقُوا.

And the seven angels with the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.

٧ 7 فَبَوَّقَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلْأَوَّلُ، فَحَدَثَ بَرَدٌ وَنَارٌ مَخْلُوطَانِ بِدَمٍ، وَأُلْقِيَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَٱحْتَرَقَ ثُلْثُ ٱلْأَشْجَارِ، وَٱحْتَرَقَ كُلُّ عُشْبٍ أَخْضَرَ.

Then the first angel sounded his trumpet, and hail and fire mixed with blood were hurled down upon the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, along with a third of the trees and all the green grass.

٨ 8 ثُمَّ بَوَّقَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلثَّانِي، فَكَأَنَّ جَبَلًا عَظِيمًا مُتَّقِدًا بِٱلنَّارِ أُلْقِيَ إِلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، فَصَارَ ثُلْثُ ٱلْبَحْرِ دَمًا.

Then the second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned to blood,

٩ 9 وَمَاتَ ثُلْثُ ٱلْخَلَائِقِ ٱلَّتِي فِي ٱلْبَحْرِ ٱلَّتِي لَهَا حَيَاةٌ، وَأُهْلِكَ ثُلْثُ ٱلسُّفُنِ.

a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.

١٠ 10 ثُمَّ بَوَّقَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلثَّالِثُ، فَسَقَطَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ كَوْكَبٌ عَظِيمٌ مُتَّقِدٌ كَمِصْبَاحٍ، وَوَقَعَ عَلَى ثُلْثِ ٱلْأَنْهَارِ وَعَلَى يَنَابِيعِ ٱلْمِيَاهِ.

Then the third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star burning like a torch fell from heaven and landed on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water.

١١ 11 وَٱسْمُ ٱلْكَوْكَبِ يُدْعَى «ٱلْأَفْسَنْتِينَ». فَصَارَ ثُلْثُ ٱلْمِيَاهِ أَفْسَنْتِينًا، وَمَاتَ كَثِيرُونَ مِنَ ٱلنَّاسِ مِنَ ٱلْمِيَاهِ لِأَنَّهَا صَارَتْ مُرَّةً.

The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter like wormwood oil, and many people died from the bitter waters.

١٢ 12 ثُمَّ بَوَّقَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلرَّابِعُ، فَضُرِبَ ثُلْثُ ٱلشَّمْسِ وَثُلْثُ ٱلْقَمَرِ وَثُلْثُ ٱلنُّجُومِ، حَتَّى يُظْلِمَ ثُلْثُهُنَّ، وَٱلنَّهَارُ لَا يُضِيءُ ثُلْثُهُ، وَٱللَّيْلُ كَذَلِكَ.

Then the fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun and moon and stars were struck. A third of the stars were darkened, a third of the day was without light, and a third of the night as well.

١٣ 13 ثُمَّ نَظَرْتُ وَسَمِعْتُ مَلَاكًا طَائِرًا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ قَائِلًا بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «وَيْلٌ! وَيْلٌ! وَيْلٌ لِلسَّاكِنِينَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ مِنْ أَجْلِ بَقِيَّةِ أَصْوَاتِ أَبْوَاقِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةِ ٱلْمُزْمِعِينَ أَنْ يُبَوِّقُوا!».

And as I observed, I heard an eagle flying overhead, calling in a loud voice, “Woe! Woe! Woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the remaining three angels!”
