Revelation 9
1 The fifth angel blew his trumpet. Then I saw [an evil angel. He was like] a star that had fallen from the sky to the earth. He was given {[Someone] gave him} the key to the shaft [that descended] ([to] the underworld/[to] the deep dark pit). (Abyssos g12)
In zatrobil je peti angel in videl sem zvezdo pasti z neba na zemljo in dan mu je bil ključ od jame brez dna. (Abyssos g12)
2 When he opened that shaft, smoke arose from it like smoke from a huge burning furnace. The smoke prevented [anyone from seeing] the sky and the light of the sun. (Abyssos g12)
In odprl je jamo brez dna in iz jame se je dvignil dim kakor dim velike talilne peči; in zaradi dima iz jame sta potemnela sonce in zrak. (Abyssos g12)
3 Locusts came out of the smoke onto the earth. [They were given] {[God] gave them} power [to sting people], like scorpions [sting people].
In iz dima so prišle na zemljo kobilice in dana jim je bila oblast, kakor imajo škorpijoni oblast na zemlji.
4 [God] told the locusts that they should not harm grass, nor any plants, nor any tree. [God said that they should harm only] those people who did not have a mark on the forehead [to show that they belonged to God].
In naročeno jim je bilo, da naj ne bi škodili zemeljski travi niti nobeni zeleni stvari niti nobenemu drevesu, temveč samo tistim ljudem, ki na svojih čelih nimajo Božjega pečata.
5 [God] did not allow the locusts to kill those people. Instead, [he] allowed them to continue torturing people for five months. When they tortured people, the pain those people felt was like the pain a scorpion causes when it stings someone.
In dano jim je bilo, da naj jih ne bi pobijale, temveč da naj bi bili pet mesecev mučeni, in njihovo mučenje je bilo kakor mučenje škorpijona, ko piči človeka.
6 During the time [when the locusts torture rebellious people, the pain will be so bad that] people will want to find a way to die, but they will not be able to [PRS].
In v tistih dneh bodo ljudje iskali smrt, pa je ne bodo našli; in želeli bodo umreti, smrt pa bo bežala od njih.
7 The locusts looked like horses that are ready for battle. They had on their heads what looked like golden crowns. Their faces were like the faces of people.
In oblika kobilic je bila podobna konjem, pripravljenim za boj; in na njihovih glavah so bile, kot bi bile krone podobne zlatu in njihovi obrazi so bili kakor človeški obrazi.
8 They had [long] hair like the [long] hair of women. Their teeth were [strong], like lions’ teeth.
In imele so lase kakor ženski lasje in njihovi zobje so bili kakor levji zobje.
9 They wore metal breastplates. [When they were flying], their wings made a noise like the roar when many horses [pull chariots as they are] rushing into battle.
In imele so prsne oklepe, kot bi bili prsni oklepi iz železa; in zvok njihovih peruti je bil kakor zvok bojnih voz z mnogimi konji, drvečimi v boj.
10 They had tails like scorpions have. With their tails they stung [people] for five months.
In imele so repe kot škorpijoni in na njihovih repih so bila žela; in njihova oblast je bila pet mesecev škoditi ljudem.
11 The king who ruled over them was the angel of the underworld. His name in the Hebrew language is Abaddon. In the Greek language it is Apollyon. [Both of] those names [mean ‘Destroyer’]. (Abyssos g12)
In nad seboj so imele kralja, ki je angel iz jame brez dna, katerega ime je v hebrejskem jeziku Ábadon, toda v grškem jeziku ima svoje ime Apolíon. (Abyssos g12)
12 That was the end of the first terrible event. [Be aware that] two tragic events are still to come.
Eno gorje je minilo, in glej, zatem pride še dvoje gorje.
13 The sixth angel blew his trumpet. Then I heard a voice from the four corners of the golden altar that is in God’s presence.
In zatrobil je šesti angel in od zlatega oltarja, ki je pred Bogom, sem zaslišal glas iz štirih rogov,
14 It was saying to the sixth angel, the one who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels whom [I] have bound at the great river Euphrates!”
rekoč šestemu angelu, ki je imel trobento: »Odveži štiri angele, ki so zvezani v veliki reki Evfrat.«
15 The four angels were released, those who had been {[He] released the four angels, whom [God] had} kept ready for that [exact] hour of that day, of that month, of that year. They were released {[He] released them} in order that they might enable [their soldiers to] kill a third of the [rebellious] people.
In štirje angeli, ki so bili pripravljeni na to uro in dan in mesec in leto, so bili odvezani, da pobijejo tretjino ljudi.
16 The number of the soldiers riding on horses who did that was 200 million. I heard [someone say] how many there were.
In število vojske jezdecev je bilo dvesto milijonov; in slišal sem njihovo število.
17 In the vision I saw what the horses and the [beings] that rode them looked like. They [wore] breastplates that were [red] like fire, [dusky blue] like smoke, and [yellow] like sulfur. The heads of the horses were like the heads of lions. From their mouths came fire, smoke, and [fumes of burning] sulfur.
In tako sem v videnju videl konje in te, ki so sedeli na njih, da imajo prsni oklepi [barvo] ognja in hijacinta ter žvepla; in glave konj so bile kakor levje glave, in iz njihovih ust so prihajali ogenj in dim in žveplo.
18 Those three things—the fire, the smoke, and the [burning] sulfur from [the horses’] mouths—killed a third of the [rebellious] people.
Od teh treh je bila tretjina ljudi ubita z ognjem, z dimom in z žveplom, ki so prihajali iz njihovih ust.
19 The horses had power with their mouths and with their tails. Their tails have heads like snakes by which they harm people.
Kajti njihova oblast je v njihovih ustih in v njihovih repih, kajti njihovi repi so bili podobni kačam in imeli so glave in z njimi škodujejo.
20 The rest of the [rebellious] people, those who were not killed by these plagues of [fire and smoke and burning sulfur], did not turn from their sinful behavior. [They did not stop worshipping] the idols that they had made with their own hands. They did not stop worshipping demons and idols [that were made] of gold, of silver, of bronze, of stone, and of wood, [even though they are idols] that can neither see nor hear nor walk.
In preostali izmed ljudi, ki niso bili pobiti s temi nadlogami, se še niso pokesali od del svojih rok, da ne bi oboževali hudičev, zlatih malikov, srebrnih in bronastih, kamnitih in lesenih, ki niti ne morejo videti, niti slišati, niti hoditi;
21 They did not stop murdering people, or practicing sorcery, or acting in sexually immoral ways, or stealing [things].
niti se niso pokesali od svojih umorov, niti od svojih čarodejstev, niti od svojih prešuštvovanj, niti od svojih tatvin.
