< Revelation 1 >

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to make known to his servants the things which must shortly come to pass: and signified, sending by his angel to his servant John,
Ny Fanambaran’ i Jesosy Kristy, izay nomen’ Andriamanitra Azy, mba hasehony amin’ ny mpanompony izay zavatra tsy maintsy ho tonga faingana; ary naniraka ny anjeliny Izy hanambara amin’ i Jaona mpanompony,
2 Who hath given testimony to the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, what things soever he hath seen.
Izay nanambara ny tenin’ Andriamanitra sy ny filazana an’ i Jesosy Kristy, dia ny zavatra rehetra izay efa hitany.
3 Blessed is he, that readeth and heareth the words of this prophecy; and keepeth those things which are written in it; for the time is at hand.
Sambatra izay manaiky sy ny mihaino ny tenin’ ity faminaniana ity ka mitandrina izay voasoratra ato anatiny; fa antomotra ny andro.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia. Grace be unto you and peace from him that is, and that was, and that is to come, and from the seven spirits which are before his throne,
Jaona mamangy ny fiangonana fito any Asia: Ho aminareo anie ny fahasoavana sy ny fiadanana avy amin’ ilay ankehitriny sy taloha ary ho avy; ary avy amin’ ny Fanahy fito izay eo anoloan’ ny seza fiandrianany;
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth, who hath loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
ary avy amin’ i Jesosy Kristy, Vavolombelona marina sy Lahimatoa amin’ ny maty ary Lehiben’ ny mpanjaka amin’ ny tany. Ho an’ izay tia antsika ka namaha antsika ho afaka amin’ ny fahotantsika tamin’ ny ràny,
6 And hath made us a kingdom, and priests to God and his Father, to him be glory and empire for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
sady efa nanao antsika ho fanjakana, dia mpisorona ho an’ Andriamanitra Ray, ― ho Azy anie ny voninahitra sy ny fanjakana mandrakizay mandrakizay. Amena. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, and they also that pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth shall bewail themselves because of him. Even so. Amen.
Indro Izy avy amin’ ny rahona; ary ny maso rehetra hahita Azy, na dia izay nandefona Azy aza; ary hitomany Azy ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany. Eny, Amena.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord God, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
Izaho no Alfa sy Omega, hoy ny Tompo Andriamanitra, Ilay ankehitriny sy taloha ary ho avy, dia ny Tsitoha.
9 I John, your brother and your partner in tribulation, and in the kingdom, and patience in Christ Jesus, was in the island, which is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus.
Izaho Jaona, rahalahinareo sy namanareo amin’ ny fahoriana ary amin’ ny fanjakana sy ny faharetana ao amin’ i Jesosy, dia tao amin’ ny nosy atao hoe Patmo noho ny tenin’ Andriamanitra sy ny filazana an’ i Jesosy.
10 I was in the spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
Voatsindrin’ ny Fanahy tamin’ ny Andron’ ny Tompo aho ka nahare feo mahery teo ivohoko, toy ny feon’ ny trompetra,
11 Saying: What thou seest, write in a book, and send to the seven churches which are in Asia, to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamus, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.
nanao hoe: Izay zavatra hitanao dia soraty eo amin’ ny boky, ka ampitondray ho any amin’ ny fiangonana fito, dia ho any Efesosy sy Smyrna sy Pergamosy sy Tyatira sy Sardisy sy Filadelfia ary Laodikia.
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks:
Dia nitodika aho nizaha ilay feo niteny tamiko. Koa rehefa nitodika aho, dia nahita fanaovan-jiro volamena fito;
13 And in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, one like to the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the feet, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
ary teo afovoan’ ny fanaovan-jiro dia nisy Anankiray tahaka ny Zanak’ olona niakanjo akanjo lava hatrany an-tongony sady nisikina fisikinam-bolamena teo amin’ ny tratrany.
14 And his head and his hairs were white, as white wool, and as snow, and his eyes were as a flame of fire,
Ary ny lohany sy ny volony dia fotsy tahaka ny volon’ ondry fotsy, dia tahaka ny oram-panala, ary ny masony tahaka ny lelafo;
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as in a burning furnace. And his voice as the sound of many waters.
ary ny tongony tahaka ny varahina manganohano, hoatra ilay voadio teo amin’ ny fandrendrehana iny; ary ny feony toy ny firohondrohon’ ny rano be.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars. And from his mouth came out a sharp two edged sword: and his face was as the sun shineth in his power.
Ary nitana kintana fito teny an-tànany ankavanana Izy; ary nisy sabatra maranitra roa lela nivoaka avy teo am-bavany; ary ny tarehiny dia tahaka ny masoandro mamirapiratra amin’ ny heriny.
17 And when I had seen him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying: Fear not. I am the First and the Last,
Ary raha nahita Azy aho, dia lavo niankohoka tahaka ny maty teo anoloan’ ny tongony. Fa Izy nanendry ahy tamin’ ny tànany ankavanana ka nanao hoe: Aza matahotra; Izaho no Voalohany sy Farany,
18 And alive, and was dead, and behold I am living for ever and ever, and have the keys of death and of hell. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
dia Ilay velona; efa maty Aho, nefa, indro, velona mandrakizay mandrakizay sady manana ny fanalahidin’ ny fahafatesana sy ny fiainan-tsi-hita. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
19 Write therefore the things which thou hast seen, and which are, and which must be done hereafter.
Koa soraty izay zavatra efa hitanao, na izay zavatra ankehitriny, na izay zavatra mbola ho avy rahatrizay,
20 The mystery of the seven stars, which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. And the seven candlesticks are the seven churches.
dia ny zava-miafina ny amin’ ny kintana fito izay efa hitanao teny an-tanako ankavanana sy ny fanaovan-jiro volamena fito. Ny kintana fito dia ny anjelin’ ny fiangonana fito: ary ny fanaovan-jiro fito dia fiangonana fito.
