Olphong 15
1 Te phoeiah vaan ah a tloe miknoek aka len tih aka khuet te ka hmuh. Pathen kah thinsanah tah amih taengah cung coeng tih lucik hnukkhueng a parhih te puencawn parhih loh han khuen.
Something else very unusual [appeared] in the sky. I saw seven angels, whose duty it was to [punish] (OR, inflict hardship upon) [rebellious people] with seven different plagues (OR, in seven different ways). God is so angry [with rebellious people that] this is the last [time that he will punish them with the purpose of giving them an opportunity to turn away from their sinful behavior].
2 Te phoeiah hmai neh a thoek te cilrhik tuili bangla ka hmuh. Satlung neh a muei te khaw, a ming toeknah te khaw aka noeng tah cilrhik tuili ah pai uh tih Pathen kah rhotoeng a pom uh.
I saw what looked like an ocean [that was made of] glass and mixed with fire. And I saw the people who overcame the beast [by not worshipping it] or its image, or [allowing its agent to mark them with] the number that corresponds to the beast’s name [PRS]. They were standing by the ocean [that looked like it was made] of glass. They had harps [for praising] God.
3 Te vaengah Pathen kah sal Moses laa neh Tuca laa te a sak uh tih, “Tloengkhoelh Pathen Boeipa nang kah bibi tah len tih khuet coeng. Namtom rhoek kah Manghai, na longpuei tah dueng tih thuem.
They were singing a song [like] God’s servant Moses [sang long ago]. They sang [like this to praise Jesus, the one who is like] a lamb: Lord God Almighty, whatever you do is powerful and marvelous! You always act righteously and truthfully. You are king forever!
4 Aka rhih loengloeng pawt te unim? Boeipa aw na ming khaw thangpom mueh la unim aka om pawt pai eh. Te dongah nang bueng na cim, Na rhilam a tueng dongah namtom boeih ha pawk uh vetih na hmaiah bakuep uh ni,” a ti uh.
O Lord, you alone are holy! People of [MTY] all nations will come and worship you, because you show everyone that you have judged everyone righteously. So, everyone will fear you and honor you! [RHQ].
5 He phoeiah khaw ka hmuh. Te vaengah bawkim te a ong tih vaan ah laipai kah dap khaw om.
After this, [in the vision] I saw in heaven the temple [that (corresponds to/was represented by]) the tent [that the Israelites pitched in the desert. That was the tent that contained] the [Ten Commandments. The temple door] was opened {was open}.
6 Te vaengah bawkim lamkah lucik rhoek parhih aka pom puencawn parhih loh ham paan. Hlamik a cim thik a bai uh phoeiah a rhang ah sui lamko a vah uh.
The seven angels [who had the bowls containing] the seven plagues came out of the temple. The angels were dressed in clean, white linen [garments], and they wore gold bands around their chests.
7 Te vaengah mulhing pali ah pakhat loh kumhal kah kumhal la aka hing Pathen kah thinsanah neh aka bae sui bunang parhih te puencawn parhih taengah a paek. (aiōn g165)
One of the four living [creatures] gave [each of] the seven angels a golden bowl, filled with [wine/liquid. That wine/liquid symbolized] that God, who lives forever, would severely punish [rebellious people]. (aiōn g165)
8 Bawkim te khaw Pathen kah thangpomnah neh a thaomnah hmaikhu khuk bae. Te dongah puencawn parhih kah lucik parhih a khah hlandue tah bawkim la ukhaw kun thai pawh.
The temple was filled with smoke [that symbolized] the presence of the glorious and all-powerful God. No one was able to enter the temple until the seven angels finished [pouring out] the seven plagues.
