Revelation 13
1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea; and I saw a beast rising out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and upon its horns ten diadems, and upon its heads names of blasphemy.
In stal sem na morskem pesku in videl zvernika dvigniti se iz morja, ki je imel sedem glav ter deset rogov in na svojih rogovih deset kron in na svojih glavah bogokletno ime.
2 And the beast which I saw was like to a leopardess, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth as a lion's mouth; and the dragon gave to it his power, and his throne, and great authority;
In zvernik, ki sem ga videl, je bil podoben leopardu in njegova stopala so bila kakor medvedja stopala in njegova usta kakor levja usta. In zmaj mu je dal svojo moč in svoj prestol ter veliko oblast.
3 and one of his heads [was] as slain to death, and his wound of death had been healed: and the whole earth wondered after the beast.
In videl sem eno izmed njegovih glav, kot bi bila ranjena do smrti in njegova smrtna rana je bila ozdravljena in ves svet se je spraševal o zverniku.
4 And they did homage to the dragon, because he gave the authority to the beast; and they did homage to the beast, saying, Who [is] like to the beast? and who can make war with it?
In oboževali so zmaja, ki je dal oblast zverniku in oboževali so zvernika, rekoč: »Kdo je podoben zverniku? Kdo se je zmožen bojevati z njim?«
5 And there was given to it a mouth, speaking great things and blasphemies; and there was given to it authority to pursue its career forty-two months.
In dana so mu bila usta, ki so govorila velike stvari ter bogokletja in dana mu je bila oblast, da nadaljuje dvainštirideset mesecev.
6 And it opened its mouth for blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle, and those who have their tabernacle in the heaven.
In svoja usta je odprl v bogokletju proti Bogu, da preklinja njegovo ime in njegovo šotorsko svetišče in te, ki prebivajo v nebesih.
7 And there was given to it to make war with the saints, and to overcome them; and there was given to it authority over every tribe, and people, and tongue, and nation;
In dano mu je bilo, da se vojskuje s svetimi in da jih premaga in dana mu je bila oblast nad vsemi sorodstvi in jeziki in narodi.
8 and all that dwell on the earth shall do it homage, [every one] whose name had not been written from [the] founding of [the] world in the book of life of the slain Lamb.
In oboževali ga bodo vsi, ki prebivajo na zemlji, katerih imena že od ustanovitve sveta niso zapisana v knjigi življenja zaklanega Jagnjeta.
9 If any one has an ear, let him hear.
Če ima katerikoli človek uho, naj sliši.
10 If any one [leads] into captivity, he goes into captivity. If any one shall kill with [the] sword, he must with [the] sword be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
Kdor vodi v ujetništvo, bo šel v ujetništvo. Kdor ubija z mečem, mora biti ubit z mečem. Tukaj je potrpežljivost in vera svetih.
11 And I saw another beast rising out of the earth; and it had two horns like to a lamb, and spake as a dragon;
In zagledal sem še enega zvernika prihajati gor iz zemlje in imel je dva rogova, podobna jagnjetovim, govoril pa je kakor zmaj.
12 and it exercises all the authority of the first beast before it, and causes the earth and those that dwell in it to do homage to the first beast, whose wound of death was healed.
In izvajal je vso oblast prvega zvernika pred njim in povzroča zemlji in tistim, ki prebivajo na njej, da obožujejo prvega zvernika, katerega smrtna rana se je pozdravila.
13 And it works great signs, that it should cause even fire to come down from heaven to the earth before men.
In dela velike čudeže, tako da naredi pred očmi ljudi, da pride ogenj z neba na zemljo
14 And it deceives those that dwell upon the earth by reason of the signs which it was given to it to work before the beast, saying to those that dwell upon the earth to make an image to the beast, which has the wound of the sword, and lived.
in zavaja te, ki prebivajo na zemlji, s pomočjo teh čudežev, za katere je imel oblast, da jih je delal pred očmi zvernika, rekoč tistim, ki prebivajo na zemlji, da bi morali narediti podobo zvernika, ki je imel rano od meča in je oživel.
15 And it was given to it to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should also speak, and should cause that as many as should not do homage to the image of the beast should be killed.
In imel je moč, da dá življenje podobi zvernika, da naj bi podoba zvernika tako govorila kakor povzročila, da naj bi bili pobiti vsi, ki ne bi oboževali podobe zvernika.
16 And it causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bondmen, that they should give them a mark upon their right hand or upon their forehead;
In povzroči vsem, tako malim kakor velikim, bogatim in revnim, svobodnim in sužnjem, da sprejmejo znamenje v svojo desnico ali v svoja čela
17 and that no one should be able to buy or sell save he that had the mark, the name of the beast, or the number of its name.
in da noben človek ne bi smel kupovati ali prodajati, razen, kdor je imel znamenje ali ime zvernika ali število njegovega imena.
18 Here is wisdom. He that has understanding let him count the number of the beast: for it is a man's number; and its number [is] six hundred [and] sixty-six.
Tukaj je modrost. Naj tisti, ki ima razum, prešteje število zvernika; kajti to je število človeka in njegovo število je šeststo šestinšestdeset.
