¹The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

¹Jesu Kris kilakna, Pathianin a sikhate kiang a lak dinga amah a piak, thil hongom pah mahmah dingte: Huan aman tuh a sikha Johan kiangah a angel sawlin chiamtehnain a theisaka;

²Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.

²amah Johanin tuh Pathian thu leh, Jesu Kris tungtang thu leh, thil tengteng a muhte tuh a theisak ta.

³Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

³Huan genkholhna thute sima, hiai genkholhna thute jaa, huaia thil kigelhte juite tuh hampha uhi; a hun a naita ngala.

⁴John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;

⁴Johanin Asia gama om saptuam sagihte kiangah: Hehpihna leh lemna na kiang ua om hen: Amah omlel leh, omsa leh, hongpai ngei dingpa akipan; leh a laltutphah maa om Kha sagihte akipanain,

⁵And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

⁵leh Jesu Kris, theihpihpa ginom, misite laka piang masapen leh leitunga kumpipate vaihawmpa akipanin. Ei honita, i khelhna akipana a sisanin hon sawppa amah kiangah;

⁶And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

⁶leh lalgam hi ding a honbawla, a Pathian leh a Pa kianga siampute hi ding a honbawl, amah kiangah thupina leh vaihawmna, khantawn, khantawnin om hen. Amen.

⁷Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

⁷Ngai in, meipi toh a hong pai hi; huan mi chitengin amah a mu ding ua, amah sunten leng; huan leitunga nam tengtengin amah a kah ding uh. Hi ngei, Amen.

⁸I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

⁸Kei Alpha leh Omega ka hi Toupa Pathian, omlel leh omsa leh hongpai ding, Bangkimhihtheiin a chi hi.

⁹I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.

⁹Kei Johan, Jesua om haksathuakna leh lalgam leh kuhkalnaa, na unau u leh na tanpihpa uh, Pathian leh Jesu tungtang thu ah, tuikulh gam Patmos kichi ah ka oma.

¹⁰I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

¹⁰Toupa niin Khain ka oma, huan ka nunglamah aw ngaihtakin, pengkul ging bang maiin,

¹¹Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.

¹¹Na thil muhte laibu ah gelh inla, saptuam sagihte kiangah khak in: Ephesa khuaah, leh Smarna khuaa, leh Pergamam khua ah, leh Thaiatira khua ah, leh Sardi khua ah leh Philadelphia khua ah, leh Leodisia khua ah, chiin, ka zata hi.

¹²And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;

¹²Huan, kei honhoupih huai aw muh tumin ka kiheia. Huchia ka kihei aleh dangkaeng tuikuang koihna sagih ka muta a.

¹³And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.

¹³Huan, huai tuikuang koihna laiah kuahiam mihing tapa toh kibang, a khepek phaa puan silh, a awm khawnga dangkaeng gaknaa kigak tuh ka muta hi.

¹⁴His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

¹⁴Huan, a lu leh a sam tuh samul kang bangin a kanga, vuk bangin; huan a mit tuh meikuang bang ahi;

¹⁵And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.

¹⁵huan, a khe khawng tuh sumsan nawttet bang ahi a, meipia hal siangsa bangin; huan a aw tuh tui tampi ging bang ahi.

¹⁶And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

¹⁶Huan a khut taklamin aksi sagih a tawia; huan a kam a kipanin namsau hiamtak hiamtuah a suak khia a; huan a mel tuh ni a sat sanlai bang ahi.

¹⁷And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:

¹⁷Huchia amah ka muh takin, kei tuh misi bangin a khe bulah ka pukkta a. Huan aman a khut taklam ka tunga koihin, Lau ken; a masapen leh a nanungpen leh.

¹⁸I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

¹⁸Mi Hing ka hi; huan ka hongsi a, huan ngaiin khantawnin ka hing hi, sihna leh misi kho tahbi ka nei hi.

¹⁹Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;

¹⁹Huaijiakin na thil muhsate leh thil om lelte lah tununga thul hongom dingte gelh in;Ka khut taklam a aksi sagih na muhte leh dangkaeng tuikuang koihna sagihte thuguk. Aksi sagihte tuh saptuam sagihte angelte ahi ua; huan tuikuang koihna sagihte tuh saptuam sagihte ahi uhi, a chi a.

²⁰The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

²⁰Ka khut taklam a aksi sagih na muhte leh dangkaeng tuikuang koihna sagihte thuguk. Aksi sagihte tuh saptuam sagihte angelte ahi ua; huan tuikuang koihna sagihte tuh saptuam sagihte ahi uhi, a chi a.
