1 Thlim ce tuicun keng awh dyi hy. Cawh tuicun khui awhkawng ak thoeng law qamsatlung ce hu nyng. Cawhkaw qamsatlung cetaw ak kii pahqa ingkaw a lu khqih tahy, ak kii boeih awh boei lumyk pahqa awm hy, a lu boeih awh Khawsa kqawn seetnaak ming awm boeih hy.
Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.
2 Cawhkaw qamsatlung ka huh cetaw kaityn ing lo qu hy nih. Cehlai a khaw taw phawm a khaw amyihna awm nawh am kha taw samthyyn am kha amyihna awm hy. Thlim ing cawhkaw qamsatlung a venawh thaawmnaak, boei ngawihdoelh ingkaw saithainaak ak bau soeih ce pehy.
The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
3 A lu pynoet taw ngawha ai hlai hy, ngawha a ai ce qoei hawh hy. Khawmdek pum amik kawpoek kyi nawh cawhkaw qamsatlung a hu awh bat uhy.
One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marvelled at the beast.
4 Qamsatlung a venawh saithainaak ce a peek a dawngawh thlangkhqi ing thlim ce bawk uhy, qamsatlung awm bawk unawh, “U nu qamsatlung amyihna ak awm? U ing anih ve a tuk thai kaw?” ti uhy.
They worshipped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshipped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
5 Oeknaak ingkaw Khawsa thekhanaak awi kqawn aham hui am lai ingkaw, hla 42 khui amah ngaih ik-oeih saithainaak ce pe uhy.
A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.
6 Anih ing Khawsa kqawn seet aham ingkaw anih ang ming ing anih a awmnaak hun ingkaw khan awh ak awm thlangkhqi boeih kqawn seet aham am kha ce awng hy.
He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, his dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.
7 Thlakciimkhqi tuk thainaak ingkaw noeng thainaak ce hu hy. Phynlum, thlangtawm, awi cawm awi ce ingkaw qampum ak khanawh saithainaak ce tahy.
It was given to him to make war with the holy ones and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.
8 Khawmdek a syn cyk awh ami him tuuca a hqingnaak cauk ak khuiawh ang ming qee na amak awm khawmdek thlangkhqi boeih ing cawhkaw qamsatlung ce bawk kawm uh.
All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
9 U awm zaaknaak haa ak ta ingtaw za seh.
If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
10 Tamnaa na ak khum hly kawi thlang taw tamnaa na khum kaw. Zawzi ing him hly kawi thlang taw zawzi ing him na awm kaw. Cedawngawh thlakciimkhqi ing kawdung doena yhnaak taak aham ingkaw ypawm na awm aham ngoe hy.
If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the holy ones.
11 Cedawngawh khawmdek awhkaw ak law qamsatlung pynoet ce hu nyng. Tuuca amyihna kii pakkhih ta hlai hy, thlim amyihna awi pau hy.
I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.
12 Lamma awhkaw qamsatlung ang zyngna anih a saithainaakkhqi boeih boeih ce sai nawh ngawha ak ai nawh ak qoei hawh lamma awhkaw qamsatlung ce dek awhkawng thlang boeih bawk sak hy.
He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
13 Anih ing kawpoek kyi hatnaak ik-oeihkhqi ce sai hy, thlang a mik huh awh khawk khan nakawng pateng za mai nung tlak law sak hy.
He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.
14 Lamma awhkaw qamsatlung ang zyngna hatnaakkhqi saithainaak ce a venawh peek na a awm a dawngawh, khawmdek awh ak awm thlangkhqi ce anih ing thai nahy. Zawzi ing ngawha ai hlai hy ak hqing tlaih qamsatlung kqihchahnaak myiqawl sai aham anih ing awi pehy.
He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast, saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.
15 Cawhkaw myiqawl bawk aham ak thanaak thlang boeih ce him saknaak thai awi kqawn aham lamma awhkaw qamsatlung myiqawl hqi sak thainaak ce anih a venawh peek na awm hy.
It was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.
16 Thlang boeih, ak zawi ak bau, boei ingkaw khawdeng, ak loet ingkaw tamnaa cawng kut benawh am awhtaw a talqi awh hatnaak boeih anih ing taak sak ngah ngah hy,
He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands or on their foreheads;
17 cedawngawh qamsatlung ang ming am awhtaw ang ming a nambat hatnaak amak ta ingtaw ik-oeih am zawi thai kawmsaw thlai awm am thlai thai kawm uh.
and that no one would be able to buy or to sell unless he has that mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
18 Ve ing cyihnaak ngoe hy, u ingawm ak poek thai awhtaw qamsa a nambat ce noet lah seh, kawtih vawhkaw nambat taw thlanghqing nambat na awm hy, anih a nambat taw 666 na awm hy.
Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred and sixty-six.
