Revelation 17

NEW JERUSALEM	GREEK BIBLE
1 One of the seven angels that had the seven bowls came to speak to me, and said, 'Come here and Iwil show you the punishment of the great prostitute who is enthroned beside abundant waters,	1 Και ηλθεν εις εκ των επτα αγγελων των εχοντων τας επτα φιαλας, και ελαλησε μετ' εμου, λεγων μοι? Ελθε, θελω σοι δειξει την κρισιν της πορνης της μεγαλης της καθημενης επι των υδατων των πολλων,
2 with whom al the kings of the earth have prostituted themselves, and who has made al the populationof the world drunk with the wine of her adultery.'	2 μετα της οποιας επορνευσαν οι βασιλεις της γης και εμεθυσθησαν οι κατοικουντες την γην εκ του οινου της πορνειας αυτης.
3 He took me in spirit to a desert, and there I saw a woman riding a scarlet beast which had sevenheads and ten horns and had blasphemous titles written al over it.	3 Και με εφερεν εν πνευματι εις ερημον. Και ειδον γυναικα καθημενην επι θηριον κοκκινον, γεμον ονοματων βλασφημιας, εχον κεφαλας επτα και κερατα δεκα.
4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet and glittered with gold and jewels and pearls, and shewas holding a gold winecup fil ed with the disgusting filth of her prostitution;	4 Και η γυνη ητο ενδεδυμενη πορφυραν και κοκκινον και κεχρυσωμενη με χρυσον και λιθους τιμιους και μαργαριτας, εχουσα εν τη χειρι αυτης χρυσουν η ποτηριον γεμον βδελυγματων και ακαθαρσιας της πορνειας αυτης,
5 on her forehead was written a name, a cryptic name: 'Babylon the Great, the mother of al theprostitutes and all the filthy practices on the earth.'	5 και επι το μετωπον αυτης ητο ονομα γεγραμμενον? Μυστηριον, Βαβυλων η μεγαλη, η μητηρ των πορνων και των βδελυγματων της γης.
6 I saw that she was drunk, drunk with the blood of the saints, and the blood of the martyrs of Jesus;and when I saw her, I was completely mystified.	6 Και ειδον την γυναικα μεθυουσαν εκ του αιματος των αγιων και εκ του αιματος των μαρτυρων του Ιησου. Και ιδων αυτην, εθαυμασα θαυμασμον μεγαν.
7 The angel said to me, 'Do you not understand? I wil tel you the meaning of this woman, and of thebeast she is riding, with the seven heads and the ten horns.	7 Και μοι ειπεν ο αγγελος. Δια τι εθαυμασας; εγω θελω σοι ειπει το μυστηριον της γυναικος και του θηριου του βασταζοντος αυτην, το οποιον εχει τας επτα κεφαλας και τα δεκα κερατα.
8 'The beast you have seen was once alive and is alive no longer; it is yet to come up from the Abyss,but only to go to its destruction. And the people of the world, whose names have not been written since thebeginning of the world in the book of life, wil be astonished when they see how the beast was once alive and isalive no longer, and is stil to come.	8 Το θηριον, το οποιον ειδες, ητο και δεν ειναι, και μελλει να αναβη εκ της αβυσσου και να υπαγη εις απωλειαν? και θελουσι θαυμασει οι κατοικουντες επι της γης, των οποιων τα ονοματα δεν ειναι γεγραμμενα εν τω βιβλιω της ζωης απο καταβολης κοσμου, βλεποντες το θηριον, το οποιον ητο και δεν ειναι, αν και ηναι.
9 'This cal s for shrewdness. The seven heads are the seven hil s, on which the woman is sitting.	9 Εδω ειναι ο νους ο εχων σοφιαν. Αι επτα κεφαλαι ειναι επτα ορη, οπου η γυνη καθηται επ' αυτων?
10 The seven heads are also seven emperors. Five of them have already gone, one is here now, andone is yet to come; once here, he must stay for a short while.	10 και ειναι επτα βασιλεις? οι πεντε επεσαν, και ο εις ειναι, ο αλλος δεν ηλθεν ετι, και οταν ελθη, ολιγον πρεπει να μεινη.
11 The beast, who was alive and is alive no longer, is at the same time the eighth and one of the seven,and he is going to his destruction.	11 Και το θηριον, το οποιον ητο και δεν ειναι, ειναι και αυτος ο ογδοος, και ειναι εκ των επτα, και υπαγει εις απωλειαν.
12 'The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have not yet been given their royal power but willhave royal authority only for a single hour and in association with the beast.	12 Και τα δεκα κερατα, τα οποια ειδες, ειναι δεκα βασιλεις, οιτινες βασιλειαν δεν ελαβον ετι, αλλα μιαν ωραν λαμβανουσιν εξουσιαν ως βασιλεις μετα του θηριου.
13 They are all of one mind in putting their strength and their powers at the beast's disposal,	13 Ουτοι εχουσι μιαν γνωμην και θελουσι παραδωσει εις το θηριον την δυναμιν και την εξουσιαν εαυτων.
14 and they wil go to war against the Lamb; but because the Lamb is Lord of lords and King of kings, hewil defeat them, he and his fol owers, the cal ed, the chosen, the trustworthy.'	14 Ουτοι θελουσι πολεμησει με το Αρνιον, και το Αρνιον θελει νικησει αυτους, διοτι ειναι Κυριος των κυριων και Βασιλευς των βασιλεων, και οσοι ειναι μετ' αυτου ειναι κλητοι και εκλεκτοι και πιστοι.
15 The angel continued, 'The waters you saw, beside which the prostitute was sitting, are al thepeoples, the populations, the nations and the languages.	15 Και μοι λεγει? Τα υδατα, τα οποια ειδες, οπου η πορνη καθηται, ειναι λαοι και οχλοι και εθνη και γλωσσαι.
16 But the ten horns and the beast will turn against the prostitute, and tear off her clothes and leave herstark naked; then they wil eat her flesh and burn the remains in the fire.	16 Και τα δεκα κερατα, τα οποια ειδες επι το θηριον, ουτοι θελουσι μισησει την πορνην και θελουσι καμει αυτην ηρημωμενην και γυμνην, και τας σαρκας αυτης θελουσι φαγει, και αυτην θελουσι κατακαυσει εν πυρι.
17 In fact, God has influenced their minds to do what he intends, to agree together to put their royalpowers at the beast's disposal until the time when God's words shal be fulfilled.	17 Διοτι ο Θεος εδωκεν εις τας καρδιας αυτων να καμωσι την γνωμην αυτου, και να γεινωσι της αυτης γνωμης και να δωσωσι την βασιλειαν αυτων εις το θηριον, εωσου εκτελεσθωσιν οι λογοι του Θεου.
18 The woman you saw is the great city which has authority over all the rulers on earth.'	18 Και η γυνη, την οποιαν ειδες, ειναι η πολις η μεγαλη, η εχουσα βασιλειαν επι των βασιλεων.
