1 A fter this I heard what sounded like a mighty shout of a great crowd in heaven, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! Salvation and glory (splendor and majesty) and power (dominion and authority) to our God!

Depois disso ouvi nos céus algo semelhante à voz de uma grande multidão, que exclamava: “Aleluia! A salvação, a glória e o poder pertencem ao nosso Deus,

2 B ecause His judgments (His condemnation and punishment, His sentences of doom) are true and sound and just and upright. He has judged (convicted, pronounced sentence, and doomed) the great and notorious harlot (idolatress) who corrupted and demoralized and poisoned the earth with her lewdness and adultery (idolatry). And He has avenged (visited on her the penalty for) the blood of His servants at her hand.

pois verdadeiros e justos são os seus juízos. Ele condenou a grande prostituta que corrompia a terra com a sua prostituição. Ele cobrou dela o sangue dos seus servos”.

3 A nd again they shouted, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! The smoke of her shall continue to ascend forever and ever (through the eternities of the eternities).

E mais uma vez a multidão exclamou: “Aleluia! A fumaça que dela vem, sobe para todo o sempre”.

4 T hen the twenty-four elders '> the heavenly Sanhedrin] and the four living creatures fell prostrate and worshiped God, Who sits on the throne, saying, Amen! Hallelujah (praise the Lord)!

Os vinte e quatro anciãos e os quatro seres viventes prostraram-se e adoraram a Deus, que estava assentado no trono, e exclamaram: “Amém, Aleluia!”

5 T hen from the throne there came a voice, saying, Praise our God, all you servants of His, you who reverence Him, both small and great!

Então veio do trono uma voz, conclamando: “Louvem o nosso Deus, todos vocês, seus servos, vocês que o temem, tanto pequenos como grandes!”

6 A fter that I heard what sounded like the shout of a vast throng, like the boom of many pounding waves, and like the roar of terrific and mighty peals of thunder, exclaiming, Hallelujah (praise the Lord)! For now the Lord our God the Omnipotent (the All-Ruler) reigns!

Então ouvi algo semelhante ao som de uma grande multidão, como o estrondo de muitas águas e fortes trovões, que bradava: “Aleluia!, pois reina o Senhor, o nosso Deus, o Todo-poderoso.

7 L et us rejoice and shout for joy! Let us celebrate and ascribe to Him glory and honor, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has prepared herself.

Regozijemo-nos! Vamos alegrar-nos e dar-lhe glória! Pois chegou a hora do casamento do Cordeiro, e a sua noiva já se aprontou.

8 S he has been permitted to dress in fine (radiant) linen, dazzling and white—for the fine linen is (signifies, represents) the righteousness (the upright, just, and godly living, deeds, and conduct, and right standing with God) of the saints (God’s holy people).

Para vestir-se, foi-lhe dado linho fino, brilhante e puro”. O linho fino são os atos justos dos santos.

9 T hen said to me, Write this down: Blessed (happy, to be envied) are those who are summoned (invited, called) to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he said to me, These are the true words (the genuine and exact declarations) of God.

E o anjo me disse: “Escreva: Felizes os convidados para o banquete do casamento do Cordeiro!” E acrescentou: “Estas são as palavras verdadeiras de Deus”.

10 T hen I fell prostrate at his feet to worship (to pay divine honors) to him, but he and said, Refrain! I am another servant with you and your brethren who have the testimony borne by Jesus. Worship God! For the substance (essence) of the truth revealed by Jesus is the spirit of all prophecy.

Então caí aos seus pés para adorá-lo, mas ele me disse: “Não faça isso! Sou servo como você e como os seus irmãos que se mantêm fiéis ao testemunho de Jesus. Adore a Deus! O testemunho de Jesus é o espírito de profecia”. O Cavaleiro no Cavalo Branco

11 A fter that I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse! The One Who was riding it is called Faithful (Trustworthy, Loyal, Incorruptible, Steady) and True, and He passes judgment and wages war in righteousness (holiness, justice, and uprightness).

Vi os céus abertos e diante de mim um cavalo branco, cujo cavaleiro se chama Fiel e Verdadeiro. Ele julga e guerreia com justiça.

12 H is eyes like a flame of fire, and on His head are many kingly crowns (diadems); and He has a title (name) inscribed which He alone knows or can understand.

Seus olhos são como chamas de fogo, e em sua cabeça há muitas coroas e um nome que só ele conhece, e ninguém mais.

13 H e is dressed in a robe dyed by dipping in blood, and the title by which He is called is The Word of God.

Está vestido com um manto tingido de sangue, e o seu nome é Palavra de Deus.

14 A nd the troops of heaven, clothed in fine linen, dazzling and clean, followed Him on white horses.

Os exércitos dos céus o seguiam, vestidos de linho fino, branco e puro, e montados em cavalos brancos.

15 F rom His mouth goes forth a sharp sword with which He can smite (afflict, strike) the nations; and He will shepherd and control them with a staff (scepter, rod) of iron. He will tread the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath and indignation of God the All-Ruler (the Almighty, the Omnipotent).

De sua boca sai uma espada afiada, com a qual ferirá as nações. “Ele as governará com cetro de ferro.” Ele pisa o lagar do vinho do furor da ira do Deus todo-poderoso.

16 A nd on His garment (robe) and on His thigh He has a name (title) inscribed, king of kings and lord of lords.

Em seu manto e em sua coxa está escrito este nome: REI DOS REIS E SENHOR DOS SENHORES.

17 T hen I saw a single angel stationed in the sun’s light, and with a mighty voice he shouted to all the birds that fly across the sky, Come, gather yourselves together for the great supper of God,

Vi um anjo que estava em pé no sol e que clamava em alta voz a todas as aves que voavam pelo meio do céu: “Venham, reúnam-se para o grande banquete de Deus,

18 T hat you may feast on the flesh of rulers, the flesh of generals and captains, the flesh of powerful and mighty men, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all humanity, both free and slave, both small and great!

para comerem carne de reis, generais e poderosos, carne de cavalos e seus cavaleiros, carne de todos — livres e escravos, pequenos e grandes”.

19 T hen I saw the beast and the rulers and leaders of the earth with their troops mustered to go into battle and make war against Him Who is mounted on the horse and against His troops.

Então vi a besta, os reis da terra e os seus exércitos reunidos para guerrearem contra aquele que está montado no cavalo e contra o seu exército.

20 A nd the beast was seized and overpowered, and with him the false prophet who in his presence had worked wonders and performed miracles by which he led astray those who had accepted or permitted to be placed upon them the stamp (mark) of the beast and those who paid homage and gave divine honors to his statue. Both of them were hurled alive into the fiery lake that burns and blazes with brimstone.

Mas a besta foi presa, e com ela o falso profeta que havia realizado os sinais miraculosos em nome dela, com os quais ele havia enganado os que receberam a marca da besta e adoraram a imagem dela. Os dois foram lançados vivos no lago de fogo que arde com enxofre.

21 A nd the rest were killed with the sword that issues from the mouth of Him Who is mounted on the horse, and all the birds fed ravenously and glutted themselves with their flesh.

Os demais foram mortos com a espada que saía da boca daquele que está montado no cavalo. E todas as aves se fartaram com a carne deles.
