To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

634. Verses 3, 4. And I will give unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth. These are the two olive trees, and the two lampstands, which stand before the God of the earth.

"And I will give unto my two witnesses," signifies the good of love and of charity, and the truth of doctrine and of faith, both from the Lord; "and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and sixty days," signifies that they shall teach, and what shall be taught, until the end of the old church, and the beginning of a new; "clothed in sackcloth," signifies in mourning on account of the non-reception of Divine Good and Divine Truth. "These are the two olive trees, and the two lampstands," signifies celestial good and spiritual good, or the good of love, and the truth of that good; "which stand before the God of the earth," signifies that these are the Divine things proceeding from the Lord, and are His in heaven and in the church.
