1 T he things that are written in the Book are made known by Jesus Christ. God gave these things to Christ so He could show them to the servants He owns. These are things which must happen very soon. Christ sent His angel to John who is a servant owned by Him. Christ made these things known to John.

Откровението от Исуса Христа, което му даде Бог, за да покаже на слугите Си онова, което има да стане скоро; а <Христос> прати та <го> яви чрез ангела Си на Своя слуга Иоан,

2 J ohn tells that the Word of God is true. He tells of Jesus Christ and all that he saw and heard of Him.

който възвести Божието слово и свидетелството Исус Христово - и всичко що е видял.

3 T he man who reads this Book and listens to it being read and obeys what it says will be happy. For all these things will happen soon. John Writes to the Seven Churches in Asia

Блажен, който прочита, и ония, които слушат думите на това пророчество и пазят написаното в него; защото времето е близо.

4 T his is John writing to the seven churches in the country of Asia. May you have loving-favor and peace from God Who was and Who is and Who is to come. May you have loving-favor and peace from the seven Spirits who are before His throne.

Иоан до седемте църкви, които са в Азия: Благодат и мир да бъде на вас от Онзи, Който е, и Който е бил, и Който иде, и от седемте духове, които са пред неговия престол,

5 M ay you have loving-favor and peace from Jesus Christ Who is faithful in telling the truth. Jesus Christ is the first to be raised from the dead. He is the head over all the kings of the earth. He is the One Who loves us and has set us free from our sins by His blood.

и от Исуса Христа, <който е> верният свидетел, първороденият от мъртвите и началникът на земните царе. На този, Който ни люби, и ни е развързал от греховете ни чрез кръвта Си,

6 C hrist has made us a holy nation of religious leaders who can go to His God and Father. He is the One to receive honor and power forever! Let it be so.

<и Който> ни е направил Царство от свещеници на своя Бог и Отец, на Него <да бъде> слава и господство във вечни векове. Амин.

7 S ee! He is coming in the clouds. Every eye will see Him. Even the men who killed Him will see Him. All the people on the earth will cry out in sorrow because of Him. Yes, let it be so.

Ето, иде с облаците; и ще Го види всяко око, и ония, които го прободоха; и всички земни племена ще възридаят за Него. Така е. Амин.

8 T he Lord God says, “I am the First and the Last, the beginning and the end of all things. I am the All-powerful One Who was and Who is and Who is to come.” What God Wanted to Show John of Christ

Аз съм Алфа и Омега, казва Господ Бог, Който е, и Който е бил, и Който иде, Всемогъщият.

9 I , John, am your Christian brother. I have shared with you in suffering because of Jesus Christ. I have also shared with you His holy nation and we have not given up. I was put on the island called Patmos because I preached the Word of God and told about Jesus Christ.

Аз Иоан, ваш брат и съучастник в неволите и в царството и в търпението, които са чрез Исуса, бях на острова, наречен Патмос, за Божието слово и свидетелството за Исуса.

10 I was under the Spirit’s power on the Lord’s Day when I heard a loud voice behind me like the loud sound of a horn.

В Господния ден бях в <изстъпление чрез> Духа; и чух зад себе си силен глас като от тръба, който казваше:

11 I t said, “(I am the First and the Last.) Write in a book what you see and send it to the seven churches. They are in the cities of Ephesus and Smyrna and Pergamum and Thyatira and Sardis and Philadelphia and Laodicea.”

Каквото виждаш напиши на книга, и прати <го> до седемте църкви: до Ефес, до Смирна, до Пергам, до Тиатир, до Сардис, до Филаделфия и до Лаодикия.

12 I turned around to see who was speaking to me. As I turned, I saw seven lights made of gold.

И обърнах се да видя Този {Гръцки: Гласът.}, Който ми проговори; и като се обърнах, видях седем златни светилника;

13 A mong the lights stood One Who looked like the Son of Man. He had on a long coat that came to His feet. A belt of gold was around His chest.

и всред светилниците <видях> Един, Който приличаше на Човешкия Син, облечен в дълга дреха и препасан около гърдите със златен пояс;

14 H is head and His hair were white like white wool. They were as white as snow. His eyes were like fire.

а главата и косата Му бяха бели като бяла вълна, като сняг, и очите Му, като огнен пламък;

15 H is feet were like shining brass as bright as if it were in a fire. His voice sounded like powerful rushing water.

и нозете Му приличаха на лъскава мед, като в пещ пречистена: а гласът Му <беше> като на много води;

16 H e held seven stars in His right hand. A sharp sword that cuts both ways came out of His mouth. His face was shining as bright as the sun shines at noon.

и имаше в десницата Си седем звезди; и от устата му излизаше меч остър и от двете страни; и лицето Му <светеше>, както свети слънцето в силата си.

17 W hen I saw Him, I fell down at His feet like a dead man. He laid His right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last.

И когато Го видях, паднах при нозете Му като мъртъв; а Той тури десницата Си върху мене и каза: Не бой се, Аз съм първият и последният и живият;

18 I am the Living One. I was dead, but look, I am alive forever. I have power over death and hell.

бях мъртъв, и, ето, живея до вечни векове; и имам ключовете на смъртта и на ада.

19 S o write the things you have seen and the things that are and the things that will happen later.

Напиши, прочее, това, което си видял, и що значи, и това, което има да стане подире,

20 T his is what the seven stars and the seven lights made of gold mean that you saw in My right hand. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. The seven lights are the seven churches.

тайната на седемте звезди, които видя в десницата Ми, и седемте златни светилника. Седемте звезди са ангелите на седемте църкви; и седемте светилника са седемте църкви.
