< رُؤيا 12 >

وَظَهَرَتْ آيَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: ٱمْرَأَةٌ مُتَسَرْبِلَةٌ بِٱلشَّمْسِ، وَٱلْقَمَرُ تَحْتَ رِجْلَيْهَا، وَعَلَى رَأْسِهَا إِكْلِيلٌ مِنِ ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ كَوْكَبًا، ١ 1
A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and with the moon under her feet, and a crown of twelve stars was on her head.
وَهِيَ حُبْلَى تَصْرُخُ مُتَمَخِّضَةً وَمُتَوَجِّعَةً لِتَلِدَ. ٢ 2
She was pregnant, and she was crying out in birth pains, in the anguish of childbirth.
وَظَهَرَتْ آيَةٌ أُخْرَى فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: هُوَذَا تِنِّينٌ عَظِيمٌ أَحْمَرُ، لَهُ سَبْعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ وَعَشَرَةُ قُرُونٍ، وَعَلَى رُؤُوسِهِ سَبْعَةُ تِيجَانٍ. ٣ 3
Then another sign was seen in heaven: Look! There was a huge red dragon that had seven heads and ten horns, and there were seven crowns on his heads.
وَذَنَبُهُ يَجُرُّ ثُلْثَ نُجُومِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ فَطَرَحَهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَٱلتِّنِّينُ وَقَفَ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ ٱلْعَتِيدَةِ أَنْ تَلِدَ، حَتَّى يَبْتَلِعَ وَلَدَهَا مَتَى وَلَدَتْ. ٤ 4
His tail swept away a third of the stars in heaven and hurled them down to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth, he would devour her child.
فَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا ذَكَرًا عَتِيدًا أَنْ يَرْعَى جَمِيعَ ٱلْأُمَمِ بِعَصًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ. وَٱخْتُطِفَ وَلَدُهَا إِلَى ٱللهِ وَإِلَى عَرْشِهِ، ٥ 5
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who would rule all the nations with an iron rod. Her child was snatched away to God and to his throne,
وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ هَرَبَتْ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، حَيْثُ لَهَا مَوْضِعٌ مُعَدٌّ مِنَ ٱللهِ لِكَيْ يَعُولُوهَا هُنَاكَ أَلْفًا وَمِئَتَيْنِ وَسِتِّينَ يَوْمًا. ٦ 6
and the woman fled into the wilderness, where God had prepared a place for her, so she could be taken care of for 1,260 days.
وَحَدَثَتْ حَرْبٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: مِيخَائِيلُ وَمَلَائِكَتُهُ حَارَبُوا ٱلتِّنِّينَ، وَحَارَبَ ٱلتِّنِّينُ وَمَلَائِكَتُهُ ٧ 7
Now there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought back.
وَلَمْ يَقْوَوْا، فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ مَكَانُهُمْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ. ٨ 8
But the dragon was not strong enough to win. So there was no longer any place in heaven for him and his angels.
فَطُرِحَ ٱلتِّنِّينُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ، ٱلْحَيَّةُ ٱلْقَدِيمَةُ ٱلْمَدْعُوُّ إِبْلِيسَ وَٱلشَّيْطَانَ، ٱلَّذِي يُضِلُّ ٱلْعَالَمَ كُلَّهُ، طُرِحَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَطُرِحَتْ مَعَهُ مَلَائِكَتُهُ. ٩ 9
The great dragon—that old serpent called the devil or Satan, who deceives the whole world—was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا عَظِيمًا قَائِلًا فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: «ٱلْآنَ صَارَ خَلَاصُ إِلَهِنَا وَقُدْرَتُهُ وَمُلْكُهُ وَسُلْطَانُ مَسِيحِهِ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ طُرِحَ ٱلْمُشْتَكِي عَلَى إِخْوَتِنَا، ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَشْتَكِي عَلَيْهِمْ أَمَامَ إِلَهِنَا نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا. ١٠ 10
Then I heard a loud voice in heaven: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, the one who accused them before our God day and night.
وَهُمْ غَلَبُوهُ بِدَمِ ٱلْخَرُوفِ وَبِكَلِمَةِ شَهَادَتِهِمْ، وَلَمْ يُحِبُّوا حَيَاتَهُمْ حَتَّى ٱلْمَوْتِ. ١١ 11
They conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they did not love their lives even to death.
مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا، ٱفْرَحِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ وَٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِيهَا. وَيْلٌ لِسَاكِنِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلْبَحْرِ، لِأَنَّ إِبْلِيسَ نَزَلَ إِلَيْكُمْ وَبِهِ غَضَبٌ عَظِيمٌ! عَالِمًا أَنَّ لَهُ زَمَانًا قَلِيلًا». ١٢ 12
Therefore rejoice you heavens, and all who reside in them! But woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with terrible anger because he has only a little time!
وَلَمَّا رَأَى ٱلتِّنِّينُ أَنَّهُ طُرِحَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، ٱضْطَهَدَ ٱلْمَرْأَةَ ٱلَّتِي وَلَدَتْ ٱلِٱبْنَ ٱلذَّكَرَ، ١٣ 13
When the dragon realized he had been thrown down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child.
فَأُعْطِيَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ جَنَاحَيِ ٱلنَّسْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ لِكَيْ تَطِيرَ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهَا، حَيْثُ تُعَالُ زَمَانًا وَزَمَانَيْنِ وَنِصْفَ زَمَانٍ، مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْحَيَّةِ. ١٤ 14
But the woman was given the two wings of a great eagle, so that she would flee to the place prepared for her in the wilderness. This was the place where she would be taken care of, for a time, times, and half a time—out of the serpent's presence.
فَأَلْقَتِ ٱلْحَيَّةُ مِنْ فَمِهَا وَرَاءَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ مَاءً كَنَهْرٍ لِتَجْعَلَهَا تُحْمَلُ بِٱلنَّهْرِ. ١٥ 15
The serpent poured water out of his mouth like a river, that he would make a flood to sweep her away.
فَأَعَانَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلْمَرْأَةَ، وَفَتَحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ فَمَهَا وَٱبْتَلَعَتِ ٱلنَّهْرَ ٱلَّذِي أَلْقَاهُ ٱلتِّنِّينُ مِنْ فَمِهِ. ١٦ 16
But the earth helped the woman. The earth opened its mouth and swallowed the river that the dragon was pouring out of his mouth.
فَغَضِبَ ٱلتِّنِّينُ عَلَى ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، وَذَهَبَ لِيَصْنَعَ حَرْبًا مَعَ بَاقِي نَسْلِهَا ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْفَظُونَ وَصَايَا ٱللهِ، وَعِنْدَهُمْ شَهَادَةُ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ. ١٧ 17
Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war with the rest of her descendants, those who obey God's commandments and hold to the testimony about Jesus.
