Apocalypsis Ioannis, 7
1. Post haec vidi quattuor angelos stantes super quattuor angulos terrae tenentes quattuor ventos terrae, ne flaret ventus super terram neque super mare neque in ullam arborem.
1. After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow on earth or sea or against any tree.
2. Et vidi alterum angelum ascendentem ab ortu solis, habentem sigillum Dei vivi; et clamavit voce magna quattuor angelis, quibus datum est nocere terrae et mari,
2. Then I saw another angel ascend from the rising of the sun, with the seal of the living God, and he called with a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm earth and sea,
3. dicens: “Nolite nocere terrae neque mari neque arboribus, quoadusque signemus servos Dei nostri in frontibus eorum”.
3. saying, "Do not harm the earth or the sea or the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God upon their foreheads."
4. Et audivi numerum signatorum, centum quadraginta quattuor milia signati ex omni tribu filiorum Israel:
4. And I heard the number of the sealed, a hundred and forty-four thousand sealed, out of every tribe of the sons of Israel,
5. ex tribu Iudae duodecim milia signati, ex tribu Ruben duodecim milia, ex tribu Gad duodecim milia,
5. twelve thousand sealed out of the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand of the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand of the tribe of Gad,
6. ex tribu Aser duodecim milia, ex tribu Nephthali duodecim milia, ex tribu Manasse duodecim milia,
6. twelve thousand of the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand of the tribe of Naph'tali, twelve thousand of the tribe of Manas'seh,
7. ex tribu Simeon duodecim milia, ex tribu Levi duodecim milia, ex tribu Issachar duodecim milia,
7. twelve thousand of the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand of the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand of the tribe of Is'sachar,
8. ex tribu Zabulon duodecim milia, ex tribu Ioseph duodecim milia, ex tribu Beniamin duodecim milia signati.
8. twelve thousand of the tribe of Zeb'ulun, twelve thousand of the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand sealed out of the tribe of Benjamin.
9. Post haec vidi: et ecce turba magna, quam dinumerare nemo poterat, ex omnibus gentibus et tribubus et populis et linguis stantes ante thronum et in conspectu Agni, amicti stolis albis, et palmae in manibus eorum;
9. After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no man could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,
10. et clamant voce magna dicentes: “Salus Deo nostro, qui sedet super thronum, et Agno”.
10. and crying out with a loud voice, "Salvation belongs to our God who sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb!"
11. Et omnes angeli stabant in circuitu throni et seniorum et quattuor animalium, et ceciderunt in conspectu throni in facies suas et adoraverunt Deum
11. And all the angels stood round the throne and round the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God,
12. dicentes: “Amen! Benedictio et gloria et sapientia et gratiarum actio et honor et virtus et fortitudo Deo nostro in saecula saeculorum. Amen”.
12. saying, "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God for ever and ever! Amen."
13. Et respondit unus de senioribus dicens mihi: “Hi, qui amicti sunt stolis albis, qui sunt et unde venerunt?”.
13. Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, "Who are these, clothed in white robes, and whence have they come?"
14. Et dixi illi: “Domine mi, tu scis”. Et dixit mihi: “Hi sunt qui veniunt de tribulatione magna et laverunt stolas suas et dealbaverunt eas in sanguine Agni.
14. I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15. Ideo sunt ante thronum Dei et serviunt ei die ac nocte in templo eius; et, qui sedet in throno, habitabit super illos.
15. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night within his temple; and he who sits upon the throne will shelter them with his presence.
16. Non esurient amplius neque sitient amplius, neque cadet super illos sol neque ullus aestus,
16. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat.
17. quoniam Agnus, qui in medio throni est, pascet illos et deducet eos ad vitae fontes aquarum, et absterget Deus omnem lacrimam ex oculis eorum”.
17. For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of living water; and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."
