رُؤيا 9

١ 1 ثُمَّ بَوَّقَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلْخَامِسُ، فَرَأَيْتُ كَوْكَبًا قَدْ سَقَطَ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَأُعْطِيَ مِفْتَاحَ بِئْرِ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ. (Abyssos g12)

And the fifth angel sounded; and I saw a star fall from heaven to the earth; and there was given to him the key of the pit of the abyss; (Abyssos g12)

٢ 2 فَفَتَحَ بِئْرَ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ، فَصَعِدَ دُخَانٌ مِنَ ٱلْبِئْرِ كَدُخَانِ أَتُونٍ عَظِيمٍ، فَأَظْلَمَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْجَوُّ مِنْ دُخَانِ ٱلْبِئْرِ. (Abyssos g12)

and he opened the pit of the abyss; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, like the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)

٣ 3 وَمِنَ ٱلدُّخَانِ خَرَجَ جَرَادٌ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَأُعْطِيَ سُلْطَانًا كَمَا لِعَقَارِبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ سُلْطَانٌ.

And out of the smoke there came locusts upon the earth; and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.

٤ 4 وَقِيلَ لَهُ أَنْ لَا يَضُرَّ عُشْبَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَلَا شَيْئًا أَخْضَرَ وَلَا شَجَرَةً مَا، إِلَّا ٱلنَّاسَ فَقَطِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَيْسَ لَهُمْ خَتْمُ ٱللهِ عَلَى جِبَاهِهِمْ.

And they were commanded not to hurt the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree, but the men who have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

٥ 5 وَأُعْطِيَ أَنْ لَا يَقْتُلَهُمْ بَلْ أَنْ يَتَعَذَّبُوا خَمْسَةَ أَشْهُرٍ. وَعَذَابُهُ كَعَذَابِ عَقْرَبٍ إِذَا لَدَغَ إِنْسَانًا.

And they were permitted, not to kill them, but to torment them five months; and the torment inflicted by them was like the torment inflicted by a scorpion, when he stings a man.

٦ 6 وَفِي تِلْكَ ٱلْأَيَّامِ سَيَطْلُبُ ٱلنَّاسُ ٱلْمَوْتَ وَلَا يَجِدُونَهُ، وَيَرْغَبُونَ أَنْ يَمُوتُوا فَيَهْرُبُ ٱلْمَوْتُ مِنْهُمْ.

And in those days men will seek for death, and shall not find it; and they will desire to die, and death shall flee from them.

٧ 7 وَشَكْلُ ٱلْجَرَادِ شِبْهُ خَيْلٍ مُهَيَّأَةٍ لِلْحَرْبِ، وَعَلَى رُؤُوسِهَا كَأَكَالِيلِ شِبْهِ ٱلذَّهَبِ، وَوُجُوهُهَا كَوُجُوهِ ٱلنَّاسِ.

And the shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for battle; and on their heads were, as it were, crowns of gold; and their faces were like the faces of men.

٨ 8 وَكَانَ لَهَا شَعْرٌ كَشَعْرِ ٱلنِّسَاءِ، وَكَانَتْ أَسْنَانُهَا كَأَسْنَانِ ٱلْأُسُودِ،

And they had hair like the hair of women; and their teeth were like the teeth of lions.

٩ 9 وَكَانَ لَهَا دُرُوعٌ كَدُرُوعٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ، وَصَوْتُ أَجْنِحَتِهَا كَصَوْتِ مَرْكَبَاتِ خَيْلٍ كَثِيرَةٍ تَجْرِي إِلَى قِتَالٍ.

And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was like the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

١٠ 10 وَلَهَا أَذْنَابٌ شِبْهُ ٱلْعَقَارِبِ، وَكَانَتْ فِي أَذْنَابِهَا حُمَاتٌ، وَسُلْطَانُهَا أَنْ تُؤْذِيَ ٱلنَّاسَ خَمْسَةَ أَشْهُرٍ.

And they had tails like scorpions, and there were stings in their tails; and they had power to hurt men five months.

١١ 11 وَلَهَا مَلَاكُ ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ مَلِكًا عَلَيْهَا، ٱسْمُهُ بِٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّةِ «أَبَدُّونَ»، وَلَهُ بِٱلْيُونَانِيَّةِ ٱسْمُ «أَبُولِّيُّونَ». (Abyssos g12)

And they had over them a king, the angel of the abyss: his name, in Hebrew, is Abaddon, and, in Greek, he has the name Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)

١٢ 12 ٱلْوَيْلُ ٱلْوَاحِدُ مَضَى هُوَذَا يَأْتِي وَيْلَانِ أَيْضًا بَعْدَ هَذَا.

The first woe is past: behold, there are coming, after this, two woes more.

١٣ 13 ثُمَّ بَوَّقَ ٱلْمَلَاكُ ٱلسَّادِسُ، فَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا وَاحِدًا مِنْ أَرْبَعَةِ قُرُونِ مَذْبَحِ ٱلذَّهَبِ ٱلَّذِي أَمَامَ ٱللهِ،

And the sixth angel sounded: and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar that is before God,

١٤ 14 قَائِلًا لِلْمَلَاكِ ٱلسَّادِسِ ٱلَّذِي مَعَهُ ٱلْبُوقُ: «فُكَّ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةَ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةَ ٱلْمُقَيَّدِينَ عِنْدَ ٱلنَّهْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ ٱلْفُرَاتِ».

saying to the sixth angel, who had the trumpet: Loose the four angels that are bound at the great river Euphrates.

١٥ 15 فَٱنْفَكَّ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ ٱلْمَلَائِكَةُ ٱلْمُعَدُّونَ لِلسَّاعَةِ وَٱلْيَوْمِ وَٱلشَّهْرِ وَٱلسَّنَةِ، لِكَيْ يَقْتُلُوا ثُلْثَ ٱلنَّاسِ.

And the four angels were loosed, who were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, to slay the third part of men.

١٦ 16 وَعَدَدُ جُيُوشِ ٱلْفُرْسَانِ مِئَتَا أَلْفِ أَلْفٍ وَأَنَا سَمِعْتُ عَدَدَهُمْ.

And the number of the armies of horsemen was two myriads of myriads: I heard the number of them.

١٧ 17 وَهَكَذَا رَأَيْتُ ٱلْخَيْلَ فِي ٱلرُّؤْيَا وَٱلْجَالِسِينَ عَلَيْهَا، لَهُمْ دُرُوعٌ نَارِيَّةٌ وَأَسْمَانْجُونِيَّةٌ وَكِبْرِيتِيَّةٌ، وَرُؤُوسُ ٱلْخَيْلِ كَرُؤُوسِ ٱلْأُسُودِ، وَمِنْ أَفْوَاهِهَا يَخْرُجُ نَارٌ وَدُخَانٌ وَكِبْرِيتٌ.

And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and those who sat on them; they had breastplates, fiery, and hyacinthine, and sulphurous: and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.

١٨ 18 مِنْ هَذِهِ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ قُتِلَ ثُلْثُ ٱلنَّاسِ، مِنَ ٱلنَّارِ وَٱلدُّخَانِ وَٱلْكِبْرِيتِ ٱلْخَارِجَةِ مِنْ أَفْوَاهِهَا،

By these three plagues was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and the smoke, and the brimstone that issued out of their mouths.

١٩ 19 فَإِنَّ سُلْطَانَهَا هُوَ فِي أَفْوَاهِهَا وَفِي أَذْنَابِهَا، لِأَنَّ أَذْنَابَهَا شِبْهُ ٱلْحَيَّاتِ، وَلَهَا رُؤُوسٌ وَبِهَا تَضُرُّ.

For their power was in their mouth and in their tails; for their tails were like serpents, and had heads, and with them they do injury.

٢٠ 20 وَأَمَّا بَقِيَّةُ ٱلنَّاسِ ٱلَّذِينَ لَمْ يُقْتَلُوا بِهَذِهِ ٱلضَّرَبَاتِ، فَلَمْ يَتُوبُوا عَنْ أَعْمَالِ أَيْدِيهِمْ، حَتَّى لَا يَسْجُدُوا لِلشَّيَاطِينِ وَأَصْنَامِ ٱلذَّهَبِ وَٱلْفِضَّةِ وَٱلنُّحَاسِ وَٱلْحَجَرِ وَٱلْخَشَبِ ٱلَّتِي لَا تَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ تُبْصِرَ وَلَا تَسْمَعَ وَلَا تَمْشِيَ،

And the rest of men that were not killed by these plagues, repented not of the works of their hands, that they might not worship demons, and idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of wood, which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk;

٢١ 21 وَلَا تَابُوا عَنْ قَتْلِهِمْ وَلَا عَنْ سِحْرِهِمْ وَلَا عَنْ زِنَاهُمْ وَلَا عَنْ سَرِقَتِهِمْ.

and they repented not of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their lewdness, nor of their thefts.
