1 I was given a stick that is used to see how big things are. Someone said, “Go up to the house of God and find out how big it is. Find out about the altar also. See how many people are worshiping.

Y ME fué dada una caña semejante á una vara, y se me dijo: Levántate, y mide el templo de Dios, y el altar, y á los que adoran en él.

2 D o not find out about the porch of the house of God. It has been given over to the nations who do not know God. They will walk over all the Holy City to wreck it for forty-two months.

Y echa fuera el patio que está fuera del templo, y no lo midas, porque es dado á los Gentiles; y hollarán la ciudad santa cuarenta y dos meses.

3 I will give power to my two men who tell what they know. They will speak for God for 1, 260 days (forty-two months). They will be dressed in clothes made from the hair of animals.” The Two Men Who Tell What They Know

Y daré á mis dos testigos, y ellos profetizarán por mil doscientos y sesenta días, vestidos de sacos.

4 T hese two men who tell what they know are the two olive trees and the two lights that stand before the Lord of the earth.

Estas son las dos olivas, y los dos candeleros que están delante del Dios de la tierra.

5 I f anyone hates them and tries to hurt them, fire comes out of the mouths of these two men. The fire kills those who try to hurt them.

Y si alguno les quisiere dañar, sale fuego de la boca de ellos, y devora á sus enemigos: y si alguno les quisiere hacer daño, es necesario que él sea así muerto.

6 T hey have power to shut up the sky. During the time they speak for God, there will be no rain. They have power to change all waters into blood. They can send every kind of trouble to the earth whenever they want to. The Death of the Two Men Who Speak for God

Estos tienen potestad de cerrar el cielo, que no llueva en los días de su profecía, y tienen poder sobre las aguas para convertirlas en sangre, y para herir la tierra con toda plaga cuantas veces quisieren.

7 W hen they have finished speaking for God, the wild animal will make war with them. It will come up out of the hole without a bottom. This wild animal will have power over them and kill them.

Y cuando ellos hubieren acabado su testimonio, la bestia que sube del abismo hará guerra contra ellos, y los vencerá, y los matará.

8 T heir dead bodies will lie in the street of Jerusalem. It is where their Lord was nailed to a cross. The city is sometimes called Sodom and Egypt.

Y sus cuerpos serán echados en las plazas de la grande ciudad, que espiritualmente es llamada Sodoma y Egipto, donde también nuestro Señor fué crucificado.

9 F or three-and-one-half days those from every people and from every family and from every language and from every nation will look at their dead bodies. People will not allow the dead bodies of these two men to be put in a grave.

Y los de los linajes, y de los pueblos, y de las lenguas, y de los Gentiles verán los cuerpos de ellos por tres días y medio, y no permitirán que sus cuerpos sean puestos en sepulcros.

10 T hose who are living on the earth will be happy because of the death of these two men. They will do things to show they are happy. They will send gifts to each other. They will do this because these two men brought much trouble and suffering to the people of the earth. The Two Men Come to Life Again

Y los moradores de la tierra se gozarán sobre ellos, y se alegrarán, y se enviarán dones los unos á los otros; porque estos dos profetas han atormentado á los que moran sobre la tierra.

11 A fter three-and-one-half days, life from God came into them again. They stood on their feet. Those who saw them were very much afraid.

Y después de tres días y medio el espíritu de vida enviado de Dios, entró en ellos, y se alzaron sobre sus pies, y vino gran temor sobre los que los vieron.

12 T hen the two men who told what they knew heard a loud voice from heaven. It said, “Come up here.” And they went up to heaven in a cloud. All those who hated them watched them go.

Y oyeron una grande voz del cielo, que les decía: Subid acá. Y subieron al cielo en una nube, y sus enemigos los vieron.

13 A t the same time the earth shook. One-tenth part of the buildings of the city fell down. Seven thousand people were killed. The rest of the people were afraid and gave honor to the God of heaven.

Y en aquella hora fué hecho gran temblor de tierra, y la décima parte de la ciudad cayó, y fueron muertos en el temblor de tierra en número de siete mil hombres: y los demás fueron espantados, y dieron gloria al Dios del cielo.

14 T he second time of trouble is past. But look, the third time of trouble is coming soon. The Seventh Horn—Worship in Heaven

El segundo ­Ay! es pasado: he aquí, el tercer ­Ay! vendrá presto.

15 T he seventh angel blew his horn. There were loud voices in heaven saying, “The nations of the world have become the holy nation of our Lord and of His Christ. He will be the Leader forever.”

Y el séptimo ángel tocó la trompeta, y fueron hechas grandes voces en el cielo, que decían: Los reinos del mundo han venido á ser los reinos de nuestro Señor, y de su Cristo: y reinará para siempre jamás.

16 T hen the twenty-four leaders who sat on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God.

Y los veinticuatro ancianos que estaban sentados delante de Dios en sus sillas, se postraron sobre sus rostros, y adoraron á Dios,

17 T hey said, “All-powerful Lord God, the One Who is and Who was and Who is to come, we thank You because You are using Your great power and have become Leader.

Diciendo: Te damos gracias, Señor Dios Todopoderoso, que eres y que eras y que has de venir, porque has tomado tu grande potencia, y has reinado.

18 T he people who do not know God have become angry with You. Now it is time for You to be angry with them. It is time for the dead to stand before You and to be judged. It is time for the servants You own who are the early preachers and those who belong to You to get the reward that is coming to them. It is time for the important people and those not important who honor Your name to get the pay that is coming to them. It is time to destroy those who have made every kind of trouble on the earth.”

Y se han airado las naciones, y tu ira es venida, y el tiempo de los muertos, para que sean juzgados, y para que des el galardón á tus siervos los profetas, y á los santos, y á los que temen tu nombre, á los pequeñitos y á los grandes, y para que destruyas los que destruyen la tierra.

19 G od’s house in heaven was opened. The special box which held the Old Way of Worship was seen in the house of God. There was lightning and thunder and noise. The earth shook and large hail stones fell.

Y el templo de Dios fué abierto en el cielo, y el arca de su testamento fué vista en su templo. Y fueron hechos relámpagos y voces y truenos y terremotos y grande granizo.
