1 R evelação de Jesus Cristo, que Deus lhe deu para mostrar aos seus servos as coisas que brevemente devem acontecer; e, enviando-as pelo seu anjo, as notificou a seu servo João;

A revelation of Jesus Christ, that God gave to him, to shew to his servants what things it behoveth to come to pass quickly; and he did signify, having sent through his messenger to his servant John,

2 o qual testificou da palavra de Deus, e do testemunho de Jesus Cristo, de tudo quanto viu.

who did testify the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as many things also as he did see.

3 B em-aventurado aquele que lê e bem-aventurados os que ouvem as palavras desta profecia e guardam as coisas que nela estão escritas; porque o tempo está próximo.

Happy is he who is reading, and those hearing, the words of the prophecy, and keeping the things written in it -- for the time is nigh!

4 J oão,

John to the seven assemblies that in Asia: Grace to you, and peace, from Him who is, and who was, and who is coming, and from the Seven Spirits that are before His throne,

5 e da parte de Jesus Cristo, que é a fiel testemunha, o primogênito dos mortos e o Príncipe dos reis da terra. Âquele que nos ama, e pelo seu sangue nos libertou dos nossos pecados,

and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the first-born out of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to him who did love us, and did bathe us from our sins in his blood,

6 e nos fez reino, sacerdotes para Deus, seu Pai, a ele seja glória e domínio pelos séculos dos séculos. Amém.

and did make us kings and priests to his God and Father, to him the glory and the power to the ages of the ages! Amen.

7 E is que vem com as nuvens, e todo olho o verá, até mesmo aqueles que o traspassaram; e todas as tribos da terra se lamentarão sobre ele. Sim. Amém.

Lo, he doth come with the clouds, and see him shall every eye, even those who did pierce him, and wail because of him shall all the tribes of the land. Yes! Amen!

8 E u sou o Alfa e o èmega, diz o Senhor Deus, aquele que é, e que era, e que há de vir, o Todo-Poderoso.

`I am the Alpha and the Omega, beginning and end, saith the Lord, who is, and who was, and who is coming -- the Almighty.'

9 E u, João, irmão vosso e companheiro convosco na aflição, no reino, e na perseverança em Jesus, estava na ilha chamada Patmos por causa da palavra de Deus e do testemunho de Jesus.

I, John, who also your brother, and fellow-partner in the tribulation, and in the reign and endurance, of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, because of the word of God, and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ;

10 E u fui arrebatado em espírito no dia do Senhor, e ouvi por detrás de mim uma grande voz, como de trombeta,

I was in the Spirit on the Lord's-day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, saying,

11 q ue dizia: O que vês, escreve-o num livro, e envia-o

`I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last;' and, `What thou dost see, write in a scroll, and send to the seven assemblies that in Asia; to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.'

12 E voltei-me para ver quem falava comigo. E, ao voltar-me, vi sete candeeiros de ouro,

And I did turn to see the voice that did speak with me, and having turned, I saw seven golden lamp-stands,

13 e no meio dos candeeiros um semelhante a filho de homem, vestido de uma roupa talar, e cingido ã altura do peito com um cinto de ouro;

and in the midst of the seven lamp-stands, like to a son of man, clothed to the foot, and girt round at the breast with a golden girdle,

14 e a sua cabeça e cabelos eram brancos como lã branca, como a neve; e os seus olhos como chama de fogo;

and his head and hairs white, as if white wool -- as snow, and his eyes as a flame of fire;

15 e os seus pés, semelhantes a latão reluzente que fora refinado numa fornalha; e a sua voz como a voz de muitas águas.

and his feet like to fine brass, as in a furnace having been fired, and his voice as a sound of many waters,

16 T inha ele na sua destra sete estrelas; e da sua boca saía uma aguda espada de dois gumes; e o seu rosto era como o sol, quando resplandece na sua força.

and having in his right hand seven stars, and out of his mouth a sharp two-edged sword is proceeding, and his countenance as the sun shining in its might.

17 Q uando o vi, caí a seus pés como morto; e ele pôs sobre mim a sua destra, dizendo: Não temas; eu sou o primeiro e o último,

And when I saw him, I did fall at his feet as dead, and he placed his right hand upon me, saying to me, `Be not afraid; I am the First and the Last,

18 e o que vivo; fui morto, mas eis aqui estou vivo pelos séculos dos séculos; e tenho as chaves da morte e do hades.

and he who is living, and I did become dead, and, lo, I am living to the ages of the ages. Amen! and I have the keys of the hades and of the death.

19 e screve, pois, as coisas que tens visto, e as que são, e as que depois destas hão de suceder.

`Write the things that thou hast seen, and the things that are, and the things that are about to come after these things;

20 E is o mistério das sete estrelas, que viste na minha destra, e dos sete candeeiros de ouro: as estrelas são os anjos das sete igrejas, e os sete candeeiros são as sete igrejas.

the secret of the seven stars that thou hast seen upon my right hand, and the seven golden lamp-stands: the seven stars are messengers of the seven assemblies, and the seven lamp-stands that thou hast seen are seven assemblies.
