Olphong 4

1 Te phoeiah he he ka hmuh. Vaan ah thohka a ong coeng ke. Te vaengah ol lamhma loh olueng bangla ka taengah a thui te ka yaak. “He la ha luei hang lamtah hekah phoeiah aka thoeng ham a kuek te nang kan tueng eh?,” a ti.

After these things I looked and saw a door opened in heaven; and the first voice that I heard, like a trumpet speaking with me, was one saying, “Come up here, and I will show you the things which must happen after this.”

2 Mueihla neh tlek ka om vaengah vaan ah ngolkhoel tarha ana hol tih te ngolkhoel dongah pakhat ana ngol.

Immediately I was in the Spirit. Behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne

3 Te vaengah ka ngol tah a suisak te maihae lung neh lungling phek ni. Ngolkhoel te khaw lungsen suisak phek la tampacung pat om.

that looked like a jasper stone and a sardius. There was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald to look at.

4 Ngolkhoel te ngolkhoel pakul pali pat om bal. Ngolkhoel pakul pali dongah patong pakul pali ngol tih himbai bok neh khuk uh. A lu te sui rhuisam neh a khuem thil uh.

Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads.

5 Ngolkhoel lamkah khophaa neh rhaek ol te khaw ha thoeng. Te vaengah ngolkhoel hmaikah hmaiim parhih tah hmai vang. Te tah Pathen kah Mueihla parhih coeng ni.

Out of the throne proceed lightnings, sounds, and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

6 Ngolkhoel hmaiah cilrhik tuili tah canglung phek la om. Ngolkhoel lakli neh ngolkhoel taengvai ah a hnuk a hmai mik hnoeng la aka bae mulhing pali te om.

Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the middle of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.

7 Te vaengah mulhing lamhma tah sathueng phek la, mulhing paibae tah vaitoca phek la om, a pathum mulhing loh a maelhmai te hlang bangla a khueh. A pali kah mulhing tah langta phek la ding.

The first creature was like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle.

8 Mulhing pali loh a phae parhuk te rhip rhip a khueh. A pum boeih neh a khuiah mik hoeng la bae. Te vaengah duemnah a khueh uh kolla khoyin khothaih, “A cim, a cim, a cim Boeipa Pathen tah tloengkhoelh ni, om coeng tih om li tih ha pawk pueng ni,” a ti uh.

The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come!”

9 Tedae mulhing rhoek loh thangpomnah, hinyahnah neh uemonah te ngolkhoel dongkah aka ngol rhoek te a paek vaengah, amih te kumhal kah kumhal duela hing. (aiōn g165)

When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives for the ages (aiōn g165) of the ages (aiōn g165),

10 Patong pakul pali tah ngolkhoel dongkah aka ngol hmaiah bakop uh vetih kumhal kah kumhal duela aka hing te a bawk uh ni. A rhuisam te ngolkhoel hmaiah a tloeng uh tih, “A koih la na om pai,” a ti uh. (aiōn g165)

the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives for the ages (aiōn g165) of the ages (aiōn g165), and throw their crowns before the throne, saying,

11 Boeipa neh mamih kah Pathen tah thangpomnah, hinyahnah neh thaomnah te dang pai saeh. Namah loh a cungkuem na suen tih na kongaih lamloh aka om rhoek khaw a suen uh coeng.

“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One, to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed and were created!”
