Revelation 16


font
CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAINGREEK BIBLE
1 And I heard a great voice from the temple, saying to the seven Angels: “Go forth and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God upon the earth.”1 Και ηκουσα φωνην μεγαλην εκ του ναου λεγουσαν προς τους επτα αγγελους? Υπαγετε και εκχεατε εις την γην τας φιαλας του θυμου του Θεου.
2 And the first Angel went forth and poured out his bowl upon the earth. And a severe and most grievous wound occurred upon the men who had the character of the beast, and upon those who adored the beast or its image.2 Και υπηγεν ο πρωτος και εξεχεε την φιαλην αυτου επι την γην? και εγεινεν ελκος κακον και πονηρον εις τους ανθρωπους, τους εχοντας το χαραγμα του θηριου και τους προσκυνουντας την εικονα αυτου.
3 And the second Angel poured out his bowl upon the sea. And it became like the blood of the dead, and every living creature in the sea died.3 Και ο δευτερος αγγελος εξεχεε την φιαλην αυτου εις την θαλασσαν? και εγεινεν αιμα ως νεκρου, και πασα ψυχη ζωσα απεθανεν εν τη θαλασση.
4 And the third Angel poured out his bowl upon the rivers and the sources of water, and these became blood.4 Και ο τριτος αγγελος εξεχεε την φιαλην αυτου εις τους ποταμους και εις τας πηγας των υδατων? και εγεινεν αιμα.
5 And I heard the Angel of the waters saying: “You are just, O Lord, who is and who was: the Holy One who has judged these things.5 Και ηκουσα τον αγγελον των υδατων λεγοντα? Δικαιος εισαι, Κυριε, ο ων και ο ην και ο οσιος, διοτι εκρινας ταυτα?
6 For they have shed the blood of the Saints and the Prophets, and so you have given them blood to drink. For they deserve this.”6 επειδη αιμα αγιων και προφητων εξεχεαν, και αιμα εδωκας εις αυτους να πιωσι? διοτι αξιοι ειναι.
7 And from the altar, I heard another one, saying, “Even now, O Lord God Almighty, your judgments are true and just.”7 Και ηκουσα αλλον εκ του θυσιαστηριου λεγοντα? Ναι, Κυριε Θεε παντοκρατωρ, αληθιναι και δικαιαι αι κρισεις σου.
8 And the fourth Angel poured out his bowl upon the sun. And it was given to him to afflict men with heat and fire.8 Και ο τεταρτος αγγελος εξεχεε την φιαλην αυτου επι τον ηλιον? και εδοθη εις αυτον να καυματιση τους ανθρωπους με πυρ.
9 And men were scorched by the great heat, and they blasphemed the name of God, who holds power over these afflictions, but they did not repent, so as to give him glory.9 Και εκαυματισθησαν οι ανθρωποι καυμα μεγα, και εβλασφημησαν το ονομα του Θεου του εχοντος εξουσιαν επι τας πληγας ταυτας, και δεν μετενοησαν ωστε να δωσωσι δοξαν εις αυτον.
10 And the fifth Angel poured out his bowl upon the throne of the beast. And his kingdom became darkened, and they gnawed at their tongues out of anguish.10 Και ο πεμπτος αγγελος εξεχεε την φιαλην αυτου επι τον θρονον του θηριου? και εγεινεν η βασιλεια αυτου πληρης σκοτους, και εμασσουν τας γλωσσας αυτων εκ του πονου,
11 And they blasphemed the God of heaven, because of their anguish and wounds, but they did not repent from their works.11 και εβλασφημησαν τον Θεον του ουρανου δια τους πονους αυτων και δια τα ελκη αυτων, και δεν μετενοησαν απο των εργων αυτων.
12 And the sixth Angel poured out his bowl upon that great river Euphrates. And its water dried up, so that a way might be prepared for the kings from the rising of the sun.12 Και ο εκτος αγγελος εξεχεε την φιαλην αυτου επι τον ποταμον τον μεγαν τον Ευφρατην? και εξηρανθη το υδωρ αυτου, δια να ετοιμασθη η οδος των βασιλεων των απο ανατολων ηλιου.
13 And I saw, from the mouth of the dragon, and from the mouth of the beast, and from the mouth of the false prophetess, three unclean spirits go out in the manner of frogs.13 Και ειδον τρια ακαθαρτα πνευματα ομοια με βατραχους εξερχομενα εκ του στοματος του δρακοντος και εκ του στοματος του θηριου και εκ του στοματος του ψευδοπροφητου?
14 For these are the spirits of the demons that were causing the signs. And they advance to the kings of the entire earth, to gather them for battle on the great day of Almighty God.14 διοτι ειναι πνευματα δαιμονων εκτελουντα σημεια, τα οποια εκπορευονται προς τους βασιλεις της γης και της οικουμενης ολης, δια να συναξωσιν αυτους εις τον πολεμον της ημερας εκεινης της μεγαλης του Θεου του παντοκρατορος.
15 “Behold, I arrive like a thief. Blessed is he who is vigilant and who preserves his vestment, lest he walk naked and they see his disgrace.”15 Ιδου, ερχομαι ως κλεπτης? μακαριος οστις αγρυπνει και φυλαττει τα ιματια αυτου, δια να μη περιπατη γυμνος και βλεπωσι την ασχημοσυνην αυτου.
16 And he shall gather them together at a place which is called, in Hebrew, Armageddon.16 Και συνηθροισεν αυτους εις τον τοπον τον καλουμενον Εβραιστι Αρμαγεδδων.
17 And the seventh Angel poured out his bowl upon the air. And a great voice went out of the temple from the throne, saying: “It is done.”17 Και ο εβδομος αγγελος εξεχεε την φιαλην αυτου εις τον αερα? και εξηλθε φωνη μεγαλη απο του ναου του ουρανου απο του θρονου, λεγουσα? Ετελεσθη.
18 And there were lightnings and voices and thunders. And a great earthquake occurred, of a kind such as has never happened since men have been upon the earth, so great was this kind of earthquake.18 Και εγειναν φωναι και βρονται και αστραπαι, και εγεινε σεισμος μεγας, οποιος δεν εγεινεν αφου οι ανθρωποι υπηρξαν επι της γης, τοσον πολλα μεγαλος σεισμος.
19 And the Great City became divided into three parts. And the cities of the Gentiles fell. And Babylon the great came to mind before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the indignation of his wrath.19 Και διηρεθη η πολις η μεγαλη εις τρια μερη, και αι πολεις των εθνων επεσον. Και Βαβυλων η μεγαλη ηλθεν εις ενθυμησιν ενωπιον του Θεου δια να δωση εις αυτην το ποτηριον του οινου του θυμου της οργης αυτου.
20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.20 Και πασα νησος εφυγε και τα ορη δεν ευρεθησαν.
21 And hail as heavy as a talent descended from the sky upon men. And men blasphemed God, because of the affliction of the hail, for it was exceedingly great.21 Και χαλαζα μεγαλη εως ενος ταλαντου κατεβαινεν εκ του ουρανου επι τους ανθρωπους? και εβλασφημησαν οι ανθρωποι τον Θεον δια την πληγην της χαλαζης, διοτι η πληγη αυτης ητο μεγαλη σφοδρα.
