The Latin Vulgate VUL
New King James Version NKJV
1 post haec audivi quasi vocem magnam turbarum multarum in caelo dicentium alleluia salus et gloria et virtus Deo nostro est
1
After these things I heard a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, "Alleluia! Salvation and glory and honor and power belong to the Lord our God!
2 quia vera et iusta iudicia sunt eius quia iudicavit de meretrice magna quae corrupit terram in prostitutione sua et vindicavit sanguinem servorum suorum de manibus eius
2
For true and righteous are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her fornication; and He has avenged on her the blood of His servants shed by her."
3 et iterum dixerunt alleluia et fumus eius ascendit in saecula saeculorum
3
Again they said, "Alleluia! Her smoke rises up forever and ever!"
4 et ceciderunt seniores viginti quattuor et quattuor animalia et adoraverunt Deum sedentem super thronum dicentes amen alleluia
4
And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, "Amen! Alleluia!"
5 et vox de throno exivit dicens laudem dicite Deo nostro omnes servi eius et qui timetis eum pusilli et magni
5
Then a voice came from the throne, saying, "Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!"
6 et audivi quasi vocem turbae magnae et sicut vocem aquarum multarum et sicut vocem tonitruum magnorum dicentium alleluia quoniam regnavit Dominus Deus noster omnipotens
6
And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, "Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns!
7 gaudeamus et exultemus et demus gloriam ei quia venerunt nuptiae agni et uxor eius praeparavit se
7
Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready."
8 et datum est illi ut cooperiat se byssinum splendens candidum byssinum enim iustificationes sunt sanctorum
8
And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
9 et dicit mihi scribe beati qui ad cenam nuptiarum agni vocati sunt et dicit mihi haec verba vera Dei sunt
9
Then he said to me, "Write: 'Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!' " And he said to me, "These are the true sayings of God."
10 et cecidi ante pedes eius ut adorarem eum et dicit mihi vide ne feceris conservus tuus sum et fratrum tuorum habentium testimonium Iesu Deum adora testimonium enim Iesu est spiritus prophetiae
10
And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, "See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."
11 et vidi caelum apertum et ecce equus albus et qui sedebat super eum vocabatur Fidelis et Verax vocatur et iustitia iudicat et pugnat
11
Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.
12 oculi autem eius sicut flamma ignis et in capite eius diademata multa habens nomen scriptum quod nemo novit nisi ipse
12
His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself.
13 et vestitus erat vestem aspersam sanguine et vocatur nomen eius Verbum Dei
13
He was clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.
14 et exercitus qui sunt in caelo sequebantur eum in equis albis vestiti byssinum album mundum
14
And the armies in heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and clean, followed Him on white horses.
15 et de ore ipsius procedit gladius acutus ut in ipso percutiat gentes et ipse reget eos in virga ferrea et ipse calcat torcular vini furoris irae Dei omnipotentis
15
Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 et habet in vestimento et in femore suo scriptum rex regum et Dominus dominantium
16
And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
17 et vidi unum angelum stantem in sole et clamavit voce magna dicens omnibus avibus quae volabant per medium caeli venite congregamini ad cenam magnam Dei
17
Then I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the midst of heaven, "Come and gather together for the supper of the great God,
18 ut manducetis carnes regum et carnes tribunorum et carnes fortium et carnes equorum et sedentium in ipsis et carnes omnium liberorum ac servorum et pusillorum ac magnorum
18
that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all people, free and slave, both small and great."
19 et vidi bestiam et reges terrae et exercitus eorum congregatos ad faciendum proelium cum illo qui sedebat in equo et cum exercitu eius
19
And I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against Him who sat on the horse and against His army.
20 et adprehensa est bestia et cum illo pseudopropheta qui fecit signa coram ipso quibus seduxit eos qui acceperunt caracterem bestiae qui et adorant imaginem eius vivi missi sunt hii duo in stagnum ignis ardentis sulphure
20
Then the beast was captured, and with him the false prophet who worked signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.
21 et ceteri occisi sunt in gladio sedentis super equum qui procedit de ore ipsius et omnes aves saturatae sunt carnibus eorum
21
And the rest were killed with the sword which proceeded from the mouth of Him who sat on the horse. And all the birds were filled with their flesh.
