رُؤيا 5

١ 1 وَرَأَيْتُ عَلَى يَمِينِ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ سِفْرًا مَكْتُوبًا مِنْ دَاخِلٍ وَمِنْ وَرَاءٍ، مَخْتُومًا بِسَبْعَةِ خُتُومٍ.

And I saw upon the right hand of Him who is sitting upon the throne a scroll, written within and on the back, sealed with seven seals;

٢ 2 وَرَأَيْتُ مَلَاكًا قَوِيًّا يُنَادِي بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «مَنْ هُوَ مُسْتَحِقٌّ أَنْ يَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَيَفُكَّ خُتُومَهُ؟».

and I saw a strong messenger crying with a great voice, 'Who is worthy to open the scroll and to loose the seals of it?'

٣ 3 فَلَمْ يَسْتَطِعْ أَحَدٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَلَا عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَا تَحْتَ ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنْ يَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَلَا أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهِ.

and no one was able in the heaven, nor upon the earth, nor under the earth, to open the scroll, nor to behold it.

٤ 4 فَصِرْتُ أَنَا أَبْكِي كَثِيرًا، لِأَنَّهُ لَمْ يُوجَدْ أَحَدٌ مُسْتَحِقًّا أَنْ يَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَيَقْرَأَهُ وَلَا أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَيْهِ.

And I was weeping much, because no one was found worthy to open and to read the scroll, nor to behold it,

٥ 5 فَقَالَ لِي وَاحِدٌ مِنَ ٱلشُّيُوخِ: «لَا تَبْكِ. هُوَذَا قَدْ غَلَبَ ٱلْأَسَدُ ٱلَّذِي مِنْ سِبْطِ يَهُوذَا، أَصْلُ دَاوُدَ، لِيَفْتَحَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَيَفُكَّ خُتُومَهُ ٱلسَّبْعَةَ».

and one of the elders saith to me, 'Weep not; lo, overcome did the Lion, who is of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, to open the scroll, and to loose the seven seals of it;

٦ 6 وَرَأَيْتُ فَإِذَا فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْعَرْشِ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ وَفِي وَسَطِ ٱلشُّيُوخِ خَرُوفٌ قَائِمٌ كَأَنَّهُ مَذْبُوحٌ، لَهُ سَبْعَةُ قُرُونٍ وَسَبْعُ أَعْيُنٍ، هِيَ سَبْعَةُ أَرْوَاحِ ٱللهِ ٱلْمُرْسَلَةُ إِلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.

and I saw, and lo, in the midst of the throne, and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb hath stood as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the Seven Spirits of God, which are sent to all the earth,

٧ 7 فَأَتَى وَأَخَذَ ٱلسِّفْرَ مِنْ يَمِينِ ٱلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ.

and he came and took the scroll out of the right hand of Him who is sitting upon the throne.

٨ 8 وَلَمَّا أَخَذَ ٱلسِّفْرَ خَرَّتِ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتُ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ وَٱلْعِشْرُونَ شَيْخًا أَمَامَ ٱلْخَروفِ، وَلَهُمْ كُلِّ وَاحِدٍ قِيثَارَاتٌ وَجَامَاتٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ مَمْلُوَّةٌ بَخُورًا هِيَ صَلَوَاتُ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ.

And when he took the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell before the Lamb, having each one harps and golden vials full of perfumes, which are the prayers of the saints,

٩ 9 وَهُمْ يَتَرَنَّمُونَ تَرْنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً قَائِلِينَ: «مُسْتَحِقٌّ أَنْتَ أَنْ تَأْخُذَ ٱلسِّفْرَ وَتَفْتَحَ خُتُومَهُ، لِأَنَّكَ ذُبِحْتَ وَٱشْتَرَيْتَنَا لِلهِ بِدَمِكَ مِنْ كُلِّ قَبِيلَةٍ وَلِسَانٍ وَشَعْبٍ وَأُمَّةٍ،

and they sing a new song, saying, 'Worthy art thou to take the scroll, and to open the seals of it, because thou wast slain, and didst redeem us to God in thy blood, out of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation,

١٠ 10 وَجَعَلْتَنَا لِإِلَهِنَا مُلُوكًا وَكَهَنَةً، فَسَنَمْلِكُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ».

and didst make us to our God kings and priests, and we shall reign upon the earth.'

١١ 11 وَنَظَرْتُ وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتَ مَلَائِكَةٍ كَثِيرِينَ حَوْلَ ٱلْعَرْشِ وَٱلْحَيَوَانَاتِ وَٱلشُّيُوخِ، وَكَانَ عَدَدُهُمْ رَبَوَاتِ رَبَوَاتٍ وَأُلُوفَ أُلُوفٍ،

And I saw, and I heard the voice of many messengers round the throne, and the living creatures, and the elders — and the number of them was myriads of myriads, and thousands of thousands —

١٢ 12 قَائِلِينَ بِصَوْتٍ عَظِيمٍ: «مُسْتَحِقٌّ هُوَ ٱلْخَروُفُ ٱلْمَذْبُوحُ أَنْ يَأْخُذَ ٱلْقُدْرَةَ وَٱلْغِنَى وَٱلْحِكْمَةَ وَٱلْقُوَّةَ وَٱلْكَرَامَةَ وَٱلْمَجْدَ وَٱلْبَرَكَةَ!».

saying with a great voice, 'Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing!'

١٣ 13 وَكُلُّ خَلِيقَةٍ مِمَّا فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَعَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ وَتَحْتَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَمَا عَلَى ٱلْبَحْرِ، كُلُّ مَا فِيهَا، سَمِعْتُهَا قَائِلَةً: «لِلْجَالِسِ عَلَى ٱلْعَرْشِ وَلِلْخَرُوفِ ٱلْبَرَكَةُ وَٱلْكَرَامَةُ وَٱلْمَجْدُ وَٱلسُّلْطَانُ إِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ». (aiōn g165)

and every creature that is in the heaven, and in the earth, and under the earth, and the things that are upon the sea, and the all things in them, heard I saying, 'To Him who is sitting upon the throne, and to the Lamb, [is] the blessing, and the honour, and the glory, and the might — to the ages of the ages!' (aiōn g165)

١٤ 14 وَكَانَتِ ٱلْحَيَوَانَاتُ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ تَقُولُ: «آمِينَ». وَٱلشُّيُوخُ ٱلْأَرْبَعَةُ وَٱلْعِشْرُونَ خَرُّوا وَسَجَدُوا لِلْحَيِّ إِلَى أَبَدِ ٱلْآبِدِينَ.

and the four living creatures said, 'Amen!' and the twenty-four elders fell down and they bow before Him who is living to the ages of the ages.
