I was in the Spirit (pneuma) on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

12 Keima hong paupui sia i aw ka zak sia en tu in ka kihei a, kham khuaimei vakna sali ka mu hi;
And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
13 Taciang tua meivakna sali i laizang ah mihing Tapa taw a kibang khat ka mu hi, Ama sia a peang dong puantualpui sil a, a awm ah kham awmkam taw hen hi.
And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the breast with a golden girdle.
14 A lu le a sam te sia tuumul bang in ngo a, vuk bang in pak hi; taciang a mitte sia meikuang bang a hihi;
His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
15 A peang te sia mei taw a ki thiangsak tau ngo taw kibang a, a aw sia tui tam mama i aw taw kibang hi.
And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
16 A khut ziatsang ah aksi sali nei hi; a kam sung pan in langni hiam namsau pusuak a; a mai sia sun nitang bang in tang hi.
And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shines in his strength.
17 Ama ka mu ciang in, a peang ah mithi bang in ka puk hi. Taciang a khut ziatsang sia ka tung ah hong nga a, Lau heak in; Keima sia a masabel le a khakbel ka hihi:
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
19 Na mu sa thu te ahizong, tu in a omlai thu te ahizong, maisang a om pheang tu thu te theampo at in;
Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
20 Ka khut ziatsang a om aksi sali le kham meivakna sali na mu te thuku sia hibang a hihi. Aksi sali sia pawlpi sali te i vantung mite hi a: meivakna sali te sia pawlpi sali te a hihi.
The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which you saw are the seven churches.
