Revelation 17

1 And came one of the seven angels those having the seven bowls and spoke with me saying (to me: *K) Come here, I will show you the punishment of the prostitute great who is sitting upon waters many,

Then one of the seven angels with the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits on many waters.

2 with whom committed sexual immorality the kings of the earth, and were made drunk those that dwelling on the earth with the wine of the sexual immorality of her.

The kings of the earth were immoral with her, and those who dwell on the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her immorality.”

3 and he carried away me into a wilderness in [the] Spirit. and I saw a woman sitting upon a beast scarlet (being full *N+kO) (of the *o) (names *N+kO) of blasphemy, (having *N+kO) heads seven and horns ten.

And the angel carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness, where I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was covered with blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns.

4 And the woman was clothed in (purple *N+kO) and (scarlet *N+kO) and adorned (with gold *N+kO) and with stone precious and with pearls, holding a cup golden in the hand of her being full of abominations and the (unclean [things] *N+kO) of the sexual immorality of her.

The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls. She held in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality.

5 And upon the forehead of her a name written, a mystery: Babylon the Great, the mother of the prostitutes and of the abominations of the earth.

And on her forehead a mysterious name was written: BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

6 And I saw the woman being drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus, And I marveled having seen her with wonder great.

I could see that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints and witnesses for Jesus. And I was utterly amazed at the sight of her.

7 And said to me the angel; Because of why did you marvel? I myself will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast who is carrying her who is having the seven heads and the ten horns.

“Why are you so amazed?” said the angel. “I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns.

8 The beast that you saw was and not is and is about to come up out of the abyss and into destruction (go. *N+kO) and (will be astonished *N+kO) those dwelling on the earth, whose not has been written (name *N+kO) in the book of life from [the] foundation of [the] world, (seeing *N+kO) the beast (that *N+kO) was and not is (and yet *N+kO) (it will exist. *N+KO) (Abyssos g12)

The beast that you saw—it was, and now is no more, but is about to come up out of the Abyss and go to its destruction. And those who dwell on the earth whose names were not written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet will be. (Abyssos g12)

9 Here [is] the mind which is having wisdom. The seven heads seven mountains are where the woman sits on them.

This calls for a mind with wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits.

10 And kings seven there are: The five are fallen, (and *k) the one is, the other not yet has come; and when he may have come, a little while him it behooves to remain.

There are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for only a little while.

11 And the beast which was and not is, also (himself *NK+o) an eighth is and of the seven is and into destruction goes.

The beast that was, and now is not, is an eighth king, who belongs to the other seven and is going into destruction.

12 And the ten horns which you saw, ten kings are, who a kingdom not yet have received but authority as kings one hour receive along with the beast.

The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but will receive one hour of authority as kings, along with the beast.

13 These one mind have and the power and (the *k) authority (of them *N+kO) to the beast (they give up. *N+kO)

These kings have one purpose: to yield their power and authority to the beast.

14 These with the Lamb war will make, and the Lamb will overcome them, because Lord of lords He is and King of kings, and those with Him [are] called and chosen and faithful.

They will make war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will triumph over them, because He is Lord of lords and King of kings; and He will be accompanied by His called and chosen and faithful ones.”

15 And he says to me; The waters that you saw, where the prostitute sits, peoples and multitudes are and nations and tongues.

Then the angel said to me, “The waters you saw, where the prostitute was seated, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues.

16 And the ten horns that you saw (and *N+KO) the beast, these will hate the prostitute and desolated they will make her and naked (they will make her *o) and the flesh of her they will eat and her they will burn with fire.

And the ten horns and the beast that you saw will hate the prostitute. They will leave her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh and burn her with fire.

17 For God has put into the hearts of them to do the purpose of Him and to do one purpose and to give the kingdom of them to the beast until (they will be completed *N+k+o) (the words *N+kO) of God.

For God has put it into their hearts to carry out His purpose by uniting to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled.

18 And the woman whom you saw is the city great which is having kingship over the kings of the earth.

And the woman you saw is the great city that rules over the kings of the earth.”
