1 This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John, 2 who testified to God’s word and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.

3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is near.

4 John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne; 5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood— 6 and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father—to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.

8 "I am the Alpha and the Omega, " says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."

9 I John, your brother and partner with you in the oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God’s Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ. 10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet 11 saying,"What you see, write in a book and send to the seven assemblies: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."

12 I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lamp stands. 13 And among the lamp stands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest. 14 His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire. 15 His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters. 16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest. 17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man.

He laid his right hand on me, saying, "Don’t be afraid. I am the first and the last, 18 and the Living one. I was dead, and behold, I am alive forever and ever. Amen. I have the keys of Death and of Hades. 19 Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter. 20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lamp stands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lamp stands are seven assemblies.

1 Jeesuse Kristuse Ilmutus, mille Jumal Temale andis, et Ta näitaks Tema sulastele, mis varsti peab sündima; ja seda Ta näitas, läkitades Oma Ingli kaudu Oma sulasele Johannesele,

2 kes on tunnistanud Jumala sõna ja Jeesuse Kristuse tunnistust, kõike, mida ta on näinud.

3 Õnnis on see, kes loeb, ja need, kes kuulevad selle prohvetliku kuulutuse sõnu ja peavad tallel, mis sellesse on kirja pandud; sest aeg on ligidal.

4 Johannes seitsmele Aasia kogudusele: armu teile ja rahu Sellelt, Kes on ja Kes oli ja Kes tuleb; ja neilt seitsmelt vaimult, kes on Tema aujärje ees;

5 ja Jeesuselt Kristuselt, Kes on ustav tunnistaja, esmasündinu surnute seast ja maailma kuningate valitseja. Temale, Kes meid on armastanud ja meid on vabastanud meie pattudest Oma Verega,

6 ja on meid teinud kuningriigiks, preestriks Jumalale ja Oma Isale, Temale olgu au ja vägi ajastute ajastuteni! Aamen.

7 Vaata, Tema tuleb pilvedega ja kõik silmad saavad Teda näha, ja need, kes Tema läbi pistsid, ja kõik maa suguharud tõstavad kaebehäält Tema pärast. Tõepoolest, aamen!

8 „Mina olen A ja O", ütleb Issand Jumal, Kes on ja Kes oli ja Kes tuleb, Kõigeväeline.

9 Mina, Johannes, teie vend ja teie kaaslane viletsuses ja kuningriigis ja kannatlikkuses Jeesuses, olin saarel, mida kutsutakse Patmoseks, Jumala sõna ja Jeesuse Kristuse tunnistuse pärast.

10 Ma olin vaimus Issanda päeval ja kuulsin oma selja taga suurt, otsekui pasuna häält,

11 mis ütles: „Mida sa näed, kirjuta raamatusse ja läkita neile seitsmele kogudusele: Efesosse ja Smürnasse ja Pergamoni ja Tüatiirasse ja Sardesesse ja Filadelfiasse ja Laodikeasse!"

12 Ja ma pöördusin ümber vaatama seda häält, mis minuga rääkis. Ja kui ma olin pöördunud, nägin ma seitset kuld küünlajalga.

13 Ja keset neid seitset küünlajalga üht, kes oli Inimese Poja sarnane, riietatud pika rüüga ja vöötatud rinde alt kuldvööga.

14 Tema pea ja juuksed olid valged nagu valge vill, nagu lumi, ja Tema silmad nagu tuleleek;

15 ja Tema jalad olid otsekui ahjus hõõguv, hiilgav vasemaak ja Tema hääl oli nagu suurte vete kohin.

16 Ja Temal oli paremas käes seitse taevatähte, ja Tema suust läks välja terav kaheterane mõõk, ja Tema pale oli otsekui päike, kui see paistab oma väes.

17 Kui ma Teda nägin, siis ma langesin maha Tema jalgade ette nagu surnu. Ja Ta pani Oma parema käe mu peale ja ütles mulle: „Ära karda, Mina olen Esimene ja Viimne

18 ja Elav; Ma olin surnud, ja vaata, Ma olen elav ajastute ajastuteni, ja Minu käes on surma ja surmavalla võtmed!

19 Kirjuta siis, mida sa oled näinud ja mis nüüd on ja mis pärast seda sünnib!

20 Nende seitsme taevatähe saladus, mida sa nägid Minu paremas käes, ja nende seitsme kuldküünlajala saladus on see: need seitse tähte on seitsme koguduse Inglid, ja need seitse küünlajalga on seitse kogudust!
