Apocalisse - Revelation 17

GREEK BIBLE	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
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,	1 And one of the seven Angels, those who hold the seven bowls, approached and spoke with me, saying: “Come, I will show you the condemnation of the great harlot, who sits upon many waters.
2 μετα της οποιας επορνευσαν οι βασιλεις της γης και εμεθυσθησαν οι κατοικουντες την γην εκ του οινου της πορνειας αυτης.	2 With her, the kings of the earth have fornicated. And those who inhabit the earth have been inebriated by the wine of her prostitution.”
3 Και με εφερεν εν πνευματι εις ερημον. Και ειδον γυναικα καθημενην επι θηριον κοκκινον, γεμον ονοματων βλασφημιας, εχον κεφαλας επτα και κερατα δεκα.	3 And he carried me away in spirit to the desert. And I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet beast, filled with names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
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,	4 And the woman was clothed all around with purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, holding a golden cup in her hand, filled with the abomination and with the filth of her fornication.
5 και επι το μετωπον αυτης ητο ονομα γεγραμμενον? Μυστηριον, Βαβυλων η μεγαλη, η μητηρ των πορνων και των βδελυγματων της γης.	5 And a name was written upon her forehead: Mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of the fornications and the abominations of the earth.
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.	6 And I saw that the woman was inebriated from the blood of the saints and from the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And I was amazed, when I had seen her, with a great wonder.
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.	7 And the Angel said to me: “Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has seven heads and ten horns.
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.	8 The beast that you saw, was, and is not, and is soon to ascend from the abyss. And he goes forth unto destruction. And the inhabitants upon the earth (those whose names have not been written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world) shall be amazed upon seeing the beast who was and is not.
9 Εδω ειναι ο νους ο εχων σοφιαν. Αι επτα κεφαλαι ειναι επτα ορη, οπου η γυνη καθηται επ' αυτων?	9 And this is for one who understands, who has wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains, upon which the woman sits, and they are seven kings.
10 και ειναι επτα βασιλεις? οι πεντε επεσαν, και ο εις ειναι, ο αλλος δεν ηλθεν ετι, και οταν ελθη, ολιγον πρεπει να μεινη.	10 Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet arrived. And when he arrives, he must remain for a brief time.
11 Και το θηριον, το οποιον ητο και δεν ειναι, ειναι και αυτος ο ογδοος, και ειναι εκ των επτα, και υπαγει εις απωλειαν.	11 And the beast who was, and is not, the same is also the eighth, and he is of the seven, and he goes forth unto destruction.
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.	12 And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings; these have not yet received a kingdom, but they shall receive authority, as if they were kings, for one hour, after the beast.
13 Ουτοι εχουσι μιαν γνωμην και θελουσι παραδωσει εις το θηριον την δυναμιν και την εξουσιαν εαυτων.	13 These hold to one plan, and they shall hand over their power and authority to the beast.
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.	14 These shall fight against the Lamb, and the Lamb shall conquer them. For he is the Lord of lords and the King of kings. And those who are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.”
15 Και μοι λεγει? Τα υδατα, τα οποια ειδες, οπου η πορνη καθηται, ειναι λαοι και οχλοι και εθνη και γλωσσαι.	15 And he said to me: “The waters that you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples and nations and languages.
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.	16 And the ten horns that you saw on the beast, these shall hate the woman who fornicates, and they shall make her desolate and naked, and they shall chew her flesh, and they shall burn her completely with fire.
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.	17 For God has granted to their hearts that they may do to her whatever is pleasing, so that they may give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God may be completed.
18 Και η γυνη, την οποιαν ειδες, ειναι η πολις η μεγαλη, η εχουσα βασιλειαν επι των βασιλεων.	18 And the woman that you saw is the great City, which holds a kingdom above that of the kings of the earth.”
