Apocalipsis 11

Diodati 1885

1POI mi fu data una canna, simile ad una verga. E l' angelo si presentò a me, dicendo: Levati, e misura il tempio di Dio, e l'altare, e quelli che adorano in quello;

2ma tralascia il cortile di fuori del tempio, e non misurarlo; perciocchè egli è stato dato a' Gentili, ed essi calcheranno la santa città lo spazio di quarantadue mesi.

3Ed io darò a' miei due testimoni di profetizzare; e profetizzeranno milledugensessanta giorni, vestiti di sacchi.

4Questi sono i due ulivi, e i due candellieri, che stanno nel cospetto del Signor della terra.

5E se alcuno li vuole offendere, fuoco esce dalla bocca loro, e divora i lor nemici; e se alcuno li vuole offendere, convien ch'egli sia ucciso in questa maniera.

6Costoro hanno podestà di chiudere il cielo, che non cada alcuna pioggia a' dì della lor profezia; hanno parimente podestà sopra le acque, per convertirle in sangue; e di percuoter la terra di qualunque piaga, ogni volta che vorranno.

7E quando avranno finita la loro testimonianza, la bestia che sale dall'abisso farà guerra con loro, e li vincerà, e li ucciderà.

8E i lor corpi morti giaceranno in su la piazza della gran città, la quale spiritualmente si chiama Sodoma ed Egitto; dove ancora è stato crocifisso il Signor loro.

9E gli uomini d'infra i popoli, e tribù, e lingue, e nazioni, vedranno i lor corpi morti lo spazio di tre giorni e mezzo; e non lasceranno che i lor corpi morti sieno posti in monumenti.

10E gli abitanti della terra si rallegreranno di loro, e ne faranno festa, e si manderanno presenti gli uni agli altri; perciocchè questi due profeti avranno tormentati gli abitanti della terra.

11E in capo di tre giorni e mezzo, lo Spirito della vita, procedente da Dio, entrò in loro, e si rizzarono in piè, e grande spavento cadde sopra quelli che li videro.

12Ed essi udirono una gran voce dal cielo, che disse loro: Salite qua. Ed essi salirono al cielo nella nuvola; e i lor nemici li videro.

13E in quell'ora si fece un gran tremoto, e la decima parte della città cadde, e settemila persone furono uccise in quel tremoto, e il rimanente fu spaventato, e diede gloria all'Iddio del cielo.

14Il secondo Guaio è passato; ed ecco, tosto verrà il terzo Guaio.

15POI il settimo angelo sonò, e si fecero gran voci nel cielo, che dicevano: Il regno del mondo è venuto ad esser del Signore nostro, e del suo Cristo; ed egli regnerà ne' secoli de' secoli.

16E i ventiquattro vecchi, che sedevano nel cospetto di Dio in sui lor troni, si gettarono già sopra le lor facce, e adorarono Iddio, dicendo:

17Noi ti ringraziamo, o Signore Iddio onnipotente, che sei, che eri, e che hai da venire; che tu hai presa in mano la tua gran potenza, e ti sei messo a regnare.

18E le nazioni si sono adirate; ma l'ira tua è venuta, e il tempo de' morti, nel quale conviene ch'essi sieno giudicati, e che tu dii il premio a' tuoi servitori profeti, ed a' santi, ed a coloro che temono il tuo nome, piccoli e grandi; e che tu distrugga coloro che distruggon la terra.

19E il tempio di Dio fu aperto nel cielo, e apparve l'arca del patto d'esso nel suo tempio; e si fecero folgori, e suoni, e tuoni, e tremoto, e gragnuola grande.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Y ME fué dada una caña semejante á una vara, y se me dijo: Levántate, y mide el templo de Dios, y el altar, y á los que adoran en él.

2Y echa fuera el patio que está fuera del templo, y no lo midas, porque es dado á los Gentiles; y hollarán la ciudad santa cuarenta y dos meses.

3Y daré á mis dos testigos, y ellos profetizarán por mil doscientos y sesenta días, vestidos de sacos.

4Estas son las dos olivas, y los dos candeleros que están delante del Dios de la tierra.

5Y si alguno les quisiere dañar, sale fuego de la boca de ellos, y devora á sus enemigos: y si alguno les quisiere hacer daño, es necesario que él sea así muerto.

6Estos tienen potestad de cerrar el cielo, que no llueva en los días de su profecía, y tienen poder sobre las aguas para convertirlas en sangre, y para herir la tierra con toda plaga cuantas veces quisieren.

7Y cuando ellos hubieren acabado su testimonio, la bestia que sube del abismo hará guerra contra ellos, y los vencerá, y los matará.

8Y sus cuerpos serán echados en las plazas de la grande ciudad, que espiritualmente es llamada Sodoma y Egipto, donde también nuestro Señor fué crucificado.

9Y los de los linajes, y de los pueblos, y de las lenguas, y de los Gentiles verán los cuerpos de ellos por tres días y medio, y no permitirán que sus cuerpos sean puestos en sepulcros.

10Y los moradores de la tierra se gozarán sobre ellos, y se alegrarán, y se enviarán dones los unos á los otros; porque estos dos profetas han atormentado á los que moran sobre la tierra.

11Y después de tres días y medio el espíritu de vida enviado de Dios, entró en ellos, y se alzaron sobre sus pies, y vino gran temor sobre los que los vieron.

12Y oyeron una grande voz del cielo, que les decía: Subid acá. Y subieron al cielo en una nube, y sus enemigos los vieron.

13Y en aquella hora fué hecho gran temblor de tierra, y la décima parte de la ciudad cayó, y fueron muertos en el temblor de tierra en número de siete mil hombres: y los demás fueron espantados, y dieron gloria al Dios del cielo.

14El segundo ¡Ay! es pasado: he aquí, el tercer ¡Ay! vendrá presto.

15Y el séptimo ángel tocó la trompeta, y fueron hechas grandes voces en el cielo, que decían: Los reinos del mundo han venido á ser los reinos de nuestro Señor, y de su Cristo: y reinará para siempre jamás.

16Y los veinticuatro ancianos que estaban sentados delante de Dios en sus sillas, se postraron sobre sus rostros, y adoraron á Dios,

17Diciendo: Te damos gracias, Señor Dios Todopoderoso, que eres y que eras y que has de venir, porque has tomado tu grande potencia, y has reinado.

18Y se han airado las naciones, y tu ira es venida, y el tiempo de los muertos, para que sean juzgados, y para que des el galardón á tus siervos los profetas, y á los santos, y á los que temen tu nombre, á los pequeñitos y á los grandes, y para que destruyas los que destruyen la tierra.

19Y el templo de Dios fué abierto en el cielo, y el arca de su testamento fué vista en su templo. Y fueron hechos relámpagos y voces y truenos y terremotos y grande granizo.

King James Version

1And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.

2But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.

3And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.

4These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.

5And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.

6These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

7And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.

8And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

9And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.

10And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.

11And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.

12And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

13And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.

14The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.

15And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

16And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,

17Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.

18And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

19And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

World English Bible

1A reed like a rod was given to me. Someone said, “Rise and measure God’s temple, and the altar, and those who worship in it.

2Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don’t measure it, for it has been given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.

3I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”

4These are the two olive trees and the two lamp stands, standing before the Lord of the earth.

5If anyone desires to harm them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their enemies. If anyone desires to harm them, he must be killed in this way.

6These have the power to shut up the sky, that it may not rain during the days of their prophecy. They have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.

7When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.

8Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.

9From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations, people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.

10Those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, and they will be glad. They will give gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.

11After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them.

12I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” They went up into heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.

13In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

14The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe comes quickly.

15The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!”

16The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God’s throne, fell on their faces and worshiped God,

17saying: “We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and reigned.

18The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your bondservants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints and those who fear your name, to the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”

19God’s temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
