1 He phoeiah diklai kil pali ah aka pai puencawn pali te ka hmuh. Diklai khohli pali te a oel uh. Te daengah ni khohli loh diklai dongah, tuili soah, thingkung boeih soah a hli pawt eh.
After this, I saw four messengers, standing at the four corners of the earth, holding fast the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow upon the land, or upon the sea, or upon any tree.
2 Te phoeiah aka hing Pathen kah kutnoek aka pom puencawn pakhat te khomik kah khocuk lamloh ha thoeng te ka hmuh. Anih taengah diklai neh tuitunli te hmalaem sak ham a paek tangtae puencawn pali te ol ue neh a doek.
And I saw another messenger, ascending from the rising of the sun, holding the seal of the Living God; and he cried out with a loud voice unto the four messengers unto whom it had been given to injure the land and the sea,
3 “Kaimih Pathen kah sal te a tal dongah kutnoek ka daeng uh hlan hil diklai khaw, tuitunli khaw, thing khaw thae sak boeh,” a ti.
saying—Do not injure the land, or the sea, or the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God upon their foreheads.
4 Te vaengah kutnoek a daeng kah hlangmi te ka yaak. Israel koca boeih lamkah kutnoek a daeng te thawng yakhat thawng sawmli thawng li louh.
And I heard the number of the sealed, —a hundred and forty-four thousand, —sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel: —
5 Judah koca lamkah thawng hlainit loh kutnoek a daeng uh. Reuben koca lamkah thawng hlainit, Gad koca lamkah thawng hlainit,
Of the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand sealed, of the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Gad, twelve thousand,
6 Asher koca lamkah thawng hlainit, Naphtali koca lamkah thawng hlainit, Manasseh koca lamkah thawng hlainit,
Of the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Naphtali, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Manasseh, twelve thousand,
7 Simeon koca lamkah thawng hlainit, Levi koca lamkah thawng hlainit, Isakhar koca lamkah thawng hlainit,
Of the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand,
8 Zebulun koca lamkah thawng hlainit, Joseph koca lamkah thawng hlainit, Benjamin koca lamkah thawng hlainit te kutnoek a daeng uh.
Of the tribe of Zebulun, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand, of the tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand, sealed.
9 Te phoeiah hlangping muep tarha ka hmuh. Te rhoek te a tae thai moenih. Namtom boeih, pilnam koca rhoek neh ol com ol khui lamkah te tuca hmai neh ngolkhoel hmaiah pai uh. A kut dongkah rhophoe neh hnikul a bok a bai uh.
After these things, I saw, and lo! a great multitude, —which, to number it! no one was able, —of every nation, and [of all] tribes, and peoples, and tongues; standing before the throne, and before the Lamb; arrayed in white robes, and palm-branches in their hands; —
10 Te phoeiah ol ue la pang uh tih, “Khangnah tah ngolkhoel soah aka ngol mamih Pathen neh Tuca kah ni,” a ti uh.
and they cry out with a loud voice, saying—Salvation unto our God who sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb!
11 Te phoeiah ngolkhoel taengvai ah aka pai puencawn rhoek neh, patong rhoek neh mulhing pali boeih loh, ngolkhoel hmaiah a maelhmai buluk uh tih Pathen te a bawk uh.
And, all the messengers, were standing round about the throne and the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell down before the throne upon their faces, and rendered homage unto God,
12 “Amen, Mamih kah Pathen te yoethennah, thangpomnah, cueihnah, uemonah, hinyahnah, thaomnah neh thadueng tah kumhal ah kumhal duela om saeh! Amen,” a ti uh. (aiōn g165)
saying—Amen! The blessing, and the glory, and the wisdom, and the thanksgiving, and the honour, and the power, and the might, —be unto our God, unto the ages of ages. [Amen]! (aiōn g165)
13 Te phoeiah patong rhoek khuikah pakhat loh a doo tih kai taengah, “Hnikul a bok aka bai rhoek, amih he me lamkah aka om neh me lamkah nim ha pawk?” a ti.
And one of the elders began, saying unto me—These who are arrayed in white robes, who are they? and whence came they?
14 Te vaengah amah te, “Ka Boeipa namah loh na ming,” ka ti nah. Tedae kamah taengah, “He rhoek tah phacip phabaem len lamkah aka pawk rhoek ni. A hnikul te a suk uh tih Tuca kah thii neh a bok sak uh,” a ti.
And I at once said to him—My lord! thou, knowest! And he said unto me—These, are they who come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb;
15 Te dongah Pathen kah ngolkhoel hmaiah om uh tih a bawkim ah khoyin khothaih amah a bawk uh. Ngolkhoel sokah aka ngol loh amih te a rhaeh thil.
For this cause, are they before the throne of God, and are rendering divine service unto him, day and night, in his sanctuary; and he that sitteth upon the throne shall spread his tent over them;
16 A bungpong uh voel mahpawh. Tuihal uh voel mahpawh. Khomik loh amih tlak thil voel pawt vetih kholing cungkuem loh do mahpawh.
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more, neither in any wise shall the sun fall upon them, nor any burning heat;
17 Ngolkhoel lakli kah tuca loh amih te a dawndah vetih amih te hingnah tuisih tui kungla long a tueng ni. Amih mik lamkah mikphi boeih te Pathen loh a huih ni.
Because, the Lamb that is in the midst of the throne, shall shepherd them, and shall lead them unto life’s fountains of waters; and God shall wipe away every tear out of their eyes.
