1 A nd I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the back, close sealed with seven seals.

ثُمَّ رَأيتُ لَفِيفَةً فِي اليَدِ اليُمنَى لِلجالِسِ عَلَى العَرشِ، وَقَدْ كُتِبَ عَلَى وَجهَيْها.

2 A nd I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a great voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

كانَتِ اللَفيفَةُ مَختُومَةً بِسَبعَةِ أختامٍ. وَرَأيتُ مَلاكاً جَبّاراً يُنادِي بِصَوتٍ عالٍ: «مَنْ يَستَحِقُّ أنْ يَكسِرَ الأختامَ وَيَفتَحَ اللَّفِيفَةَ؟»

3 A nd no one in the heaven, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book, or to look thereon.

لَكِنْ لَمْ يَستَطِعْ أحَدٌ أنْ يَفتَحَ اللَّفِيفَةَ لِيَرَى ما بِداخِلِها. لا أحَدَ مِنَ السَّماءِ وَلا عَلَى الأرْضِ وَلا تَحتَ الأرْضِ!

4 A nd I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book, or to look thereon:

فَأخَذْتُ أبكي كَثيراً لأنَّهُ لَمْ يُوجَدْ أحَدٌ يَستَحِقُّ أنْ يَفتَحَ اللَّفِيفَةَ وَيَنظُرَ ما فِيها.

5 a nd one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not; behold, the Lion that is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath overcome to open the book and the seven seals thereof.

فَقالَ لِي أحَدُ الشُّيُوخِ: «لا تَبكِ، ها الأسَدُ الَّذِي مِنْ قَبِيلَةِ يَهُوذا وَمِنْ نَسلِ داوُدَ قَدِ انتَصَرَ، وَهُوَ قادِرٌ أنْ يَكسِرَ الأختامَ السَّبعَةَ وَيَفتَحَ اللَّفِيفَةَ.»

6 A nd I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent forth into all the earth.

ثُمَّ رَأيتُ الحَمَلَ واقِفاً فِي الوَسَطِ أمامَ العَرشِ، وَحَولَهُ المَخلُوقاتُ الأربَعَةُ وَالشُّيُوخُ. وَكانَ الحَمَلُ كَما لَو أنَّهُ مَذبُوحٌ. كانَتْ لَهُ سَبعَةُ قُرُونٍ وَسَبعُ أعيُنٍ هِيَ أرواحُ اللهِ السَّبعَةِ الَّتِي أُرسِلَتْ إلَى كُلِّ الأرْضِ.

7 A nd he came, and he taketh it out of the right hand of him that sat on the throne.

ثُمَّ تَقَدَّمَ وَأخَذَ اللَّفِيفَةَ مِنَ اليَدِ اليُمنَى لِلجالِسِ عَلَى العَرشِ.

8 A nd when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having each one a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

عِندَها سَجَدَتِ المَخلُوقاتُ الأربَعَةُ وَالشُّيُوخُ الأربَعَةُ وَالعِشرُونَ أمامَهُ، وَكُلُّ واحِدٍ مِنهُمْ مَعَهُ قَيثارَةٌ وَوِعاءٌ مَملوءٌ بِالبَخُورِ، الَّذِي هُوَ صَلَواتُ المؤمِنينَ المُقَدَّسينَ.

9 A nd they sing a new song, saying, Worthy art thou to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou was slain, and didst purchase unto God with thy blood men of every tribe, and tongue, and people, and nation,

كانُوا يُرَنِّمُونَ تَرنِيمَةً جَدِيدَةً فَيَقولونَ: «أنتَ مُستَحِقٌّ أنْ تَأخُذَ اللَّفِيفَةَ وَأنْ تَكسِرَ أختامَها، لِأنَّكَ ذُبِحتَ، وَبِدَمِكَ اشتَرَيتَ شَعباً للهِ مِنْ كُلِّ عَشِيرَةٍ وَلُغَةٍ وَشَعبٍ وَأُمَّةٍ.

10 a nd madest them to be unto our God a kingdom and priests; and they reign upon earth.

وَجَعَلتَهُمْ مَملَكَةً، وَكَهَنَةً لإلَهِنا، وَسَيَسُودُونَ الأرْضَ.»

11 A nd I saw, and I heard a voice of many angels round about the throne and the living creatures and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

ثُمَّ نَظَرتُ وَسَمِعتُ أصواتَ العَدِيدِ مِنَ المَلائِكَةِ الَّذِينَ التَفُّوا حَولَ العَرشِ وَالمَخلُوقاتِ وَالشُّيُوخِ، فَكانُوا مَلايِينَ وَمَلايِينَ!

12 s aying with a great voice, Worthy is the Lamb that hath been slain to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and might and honor, and glory, and blessing.

وَهُمْ يَقُولُونَ بِصَوتٍ عالٍ: «الحَمَلُ المَذبُوحُ يَسْتَحِقُّ القُدرَةَ وَالغِنَى، وَالحِكْمَةِ وَالقُوَّةِ وَالكَرامَةِ، وَالمَجدِ وَالتَّسبِيحِ.»

13 A nd every created thing which is in the heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and on the sea, and all things are in them, heard I saying, Unto him that sitteth on the throne, and unto the Lamb, be the blessing, and the honor, and the glory, and the dominion, for ever and ever.

ثُمَّ سَمِعْتُ كُلَّ كائِنٍ مَخلُوقٍ فِي السَّماءِ وَعَلَى الأرْضِ وَتَحتَها وَفِي البَحرِ، كُلَّ مَخلُوقاتِ الكَونِ بِأسرِهِ تَقُولُ: «لِلجالِسِ عَلَى العَرشِ وَلِلحَمَلِ، التَّسبِيحُ وَالكَرامَةُ وَالمَجدُ وَالقُدرَةُ، إلَى أبَدِ الآبِدِينَ.»

14 A nd the four living creatures said, Amen. And the elders fell down and worshipped.

وَقالَتِ المَخلُوقاتُ الأربَعَةُ: «آمِيْن،» ثُمَّ انحَنَى الشُّيُوخُ وَسَجَدُوا.
