Revelation 1
1 This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John,
Apocalypsis Iesu Christi, quam dedit illi Deus palam facere servis suis, quæ oportet fieri cito: et significavit, mittens per Angelum suum servo suo Ioanni,
2 who testified to God’s word and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.
qui testimonium perhibuit verbo Dei, et testimonium Iesu Christi, quæcumque vidit.
3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is near.
Beatus, qui legit, et audit verba prophetiæ huius: et servat ea, quæ in ea scripta sunt: tempus enim prope est.
4 John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;
Ioannes septem Ecclesiis, quæ sunt in Asia. Gratia vobis, et pax ab eo, qui est, et qui erat, et qui venturus est: et a septem spiritibus, qui in conspectu throni eius sunt:
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood—
et a Iesu Christo, qui est testis fidelis, primogenitus mortuorum, et princeps regum terræ, qui dilexit nos, et lavit nos a peccatis nostris in sanguine suo,
6 and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father—to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
et fecit nos regnum, et sacerdotes Deo et Patri suo: ipsi gloria, et imperium in sæcula sæculorum: Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
Ecce venit cum nubibus, et videbit eum omnis oculus, et qui eum pupugerunt. Et plangent se super eum omnes tribus terræ: Etiam: Amen.
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
Ego sum?, et?, principium, et finis, dicit Dominus Deus: qui est, et qui erat, et qui venturus est, omnipotens.
9 I John, your brother and partner with you in the oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God’s Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Ego Ioannes frater vester, et particeps in tribulatione, et regno et patientia in Christo Iesu: fui in insula, quæ appellatur Patmos propter verbum Dei, et testimonium Iesu:
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet
Fui in spiritu in Dominica die, et audivi post me vocem magnam tamquam tubæ,
11 saying, “What you see, write in a book and send to the seven assemblies: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”
dicentis: Quod vides, scribe in libro: et mitte septem Ecclesiis, quæ sunt in Asia, Epheso, et Smyrnæ, et Pergamo, et Thyatiræ, et Sardis, et Philadelphiæ, et Laodiciæ:
12 I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lamp stands.
Et conversus sum ut viderem vocem, quæ loquebatur mecum: Et conversus vidi septem candelabra aurea:
13 And among the lamp stands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.
et in medio septem candelabrorum aureorum similem filio hominis, vestitum podere, et præcinctum ad mamillas zona aurea:
14 His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.
caput autem eius, et capilli erant candidi tamquam lana alba, et tamquam nix, et oculi eius tamquam flamma ignis,
15 His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.
et pedes eius similes aurichalco, sicut in camino ardenti, et vox illius tamquam vox aquarum multarum:
16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
et habebat in dextera sua stellas septem: et de ore eius gladius utraque parte acutus exibat: et facies eius sicut sol lucet in virtute sua.
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, “Don’t be afraid. I am the first and the last,
Et cum vidissem eum, cecidi ad pedes eius tamquam mortuus. Et posuit dexteram suam super me, dicens: Noli timere: ego sum primus, et novissimus,
19 Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter.
Scribe ergo quæ vidisti, et quæ sunt, et quæ oportet fieri post hæc.
20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lamp stands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lamp stands are seven assemblies.
Sacramentum septem stellarum, quas vidisti in dextera mea, et septem candelabra aurea: septem stellæ Angeli sunt septem Ecclesiarum: et candelabra septem, septem Ecclesiæ sunt.
