¹ Opet mi dođe reč Gospodnja govoreći:

² Sine čovečji, okreni lice svoje na jug i pokaplji prema jugu, i prorokuj na šumu u južnom polju.

³ I reci šumi južnoj: Čuj reč Gospodnju, ovako veli Gospod Gospod, evo ja ću raspaliti u tebi oganj koji će proždreti u tebi svako drvo zeleno i svako drvo suvo; plamen razgoreli neće se ugasiti, i izgoreće od njega sve od juga do severa.

⁴ I svako će telo videti da sam ja zapalio; neće se ugasiti.

⁵ A ja rekoh: Jaoh Gospode Gospode, oni govore za me: Ne govori li taj same priče?

⁶ I dođe mi reč Gospodnja govoreći:

⁷ Sine čovečji, okreni lice svoje prema Jerusalimu, i pokaplji prema svetim mestima, i prorokuj protiv zemlje Izrailjeve.

⁸ I reci zemlji Izrailjevoj: Ovako veli Gospod: Evo me na te; izvući ću mač svoj iz korica, i istrebiću iz tebe pravednog i bezbožnog.

⁹ Da istrebim iz tebe pravednog i bezbožnog, zato će izaći mač moj iz korica svojih na svako telo od juga do severa.

¹⁰ I poznaće svako telo da sam ja Gospod izvukao mač svoj iz korica njegovih, neće se više vratiti.

¹¹ A ti, sine čovečji, uzdiši kao da su ti bedra polomljena, i gorko uzdiši pred njima.

¹² A kad ti kažu: Zašto uzdišeš? Ti reci: Za glas što ide, od kog će se rastopiti svako srce i klonuti sve ruke i svakog će duha nestati, i svaka će kolena postati kao voda; evo, ide, i navršiće se, govori Gospod Gospod.

¹³ Potom dođe mi reč Gospodnja govoreći:

¹⁴ Sine čovečji, prorokuj i reci: Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: Reci: mač, mač je naoštren, i uglađen je.

¹⁵ Naoštren je da kolje, uglađen je da seva; hoćemo li se radovati kad prut sina mog ne haje ni za kako drvo?

¹⁶ Dao ga je da se ugladi da se uzme u ruku; mač je naoštren i uglađen, da se da u ruku ubici.

¹⁷ Viči i ridaj, sine čovečji; jer on ide na narod moj, na sve knezove Izrailjeve; pod mač će biti okrenuti s narodom mojim, za to udri se po bedru.

¹⁸ Kad beše karanje, šta bi? Eda li ni od pruta koji ne haje neće biti ništa? Govori Gospod Gospod.

¹⁹ Ti dakle, sine čovečji, prorokuj i pljeskaj rukama, jer će mač doći i drugom i trećom, mač koji ubija, mač koji velike ubija, koji prodire u kleti.

²⁰ Da se rastope srca i umnoži pogibao, metnuo sam na sva vrata njihova strah od mača; jaoh! Pripravljen je da seva, naoštren da kolje.

²¹ Stegni se, udri nadesno, nalevo, kuda se god obrneš.

²² Jer ću i ja pljeskati rukama, i namiriću gnev svoj. Ja Gospod rekoh.

²³ Još mi dođe reč Gospodnja govoreći:

²⁴ A ti, sine čovečji, načini dva puta, kuda će doći mač cara vavilonskog; iz jedne zemlje neka izlaze oba; i izberi stranu, gde se počinje put gradski, izberi.

²⁵ Načini put kojim će doći mač na Ravu sinova Amonovih, i u Judeju na tvrdi Jerusalim.

²⁶ Jer će car vavilonski stati na rasputici, gde počinju dva puta, te će vračati, gladiće strele, pitaće likove, gledaće u jetru.

²⁷ Nadesno će mu vračanje pokazati Jerusalim da namesti ubojne sprave, da otvori usta na klanje, da podigne glas podvikujući, da namesti ubojne sprave prema vratima, da načini opkope, da pogradi kule.

²⁸ I učiniće se vračanje zaludno zakletima, a to će napomenuti bezakonje da se uhvate.

²⁹ Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: Što napominjete svoje bezakonje, te se otkriva nevera vaša i gresi se vaši vide u svim delima vašim, za to što dođoste na pamet, bićete pohvatani rukom.

³⁰ A ti, nečisti bezbožniče, kneže Izrailjev, kome dođe dan kad bi na kraju bezakonje,

³¹ Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: Skini tu kapu i svrzi taj venac, neće ga biti; niskog ću uzvisiti a visokog ću poniziti.

³² Uništiću, uništiću, uništiću ga, i neće ga biti, dokle ne dođe onaj kome pripada, i njemu ću ga dati.

³³ A ti, sine čovečji, prorokuj i reci: Ovako veli Gospod Gospod za sinove Amonove i za njihovu sramotu; reci dakle: mač, mač je izvučen, uglađen da kolje, da zatire, da seva,

³⁴ Dokle ti viđaju taštinu, dokle ti gataju laž, da te metnu na vratove pobijenim bezbožnicima, kojima dođe dan kad bi kraj bezakonju.

³⁵ Ostavi mač u korice, na mestu gde si se rodio, u zemlji gde si postao, sudiću ti;

³⁶ I izliću na te gnev svoj, ognjem gneva svog dunuću na te i predaću te u ruke žestokim ljudima, veštim u zatiranju.

³⁷ Ognju ćeš biti hrana, krv će ti biti posred zemlje, nećeš se spominjati, jer ja Gospod rekoh.

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 at hand.

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 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 lampstands.

¹³ And among the lampstands 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 forevermore. 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 lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lampstands are seven assemblies.
