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:

¹Zjavenie Ježiša Krista, ktoré mu dal Bôh, aby ukázal svojim sluhom, čo sa musí udiať naskore, a on pošlúc ho po svojom anjelovi ukázal v znameniach svojmu sluhovi Jánovi,

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

²ktorý svedčil slovo Božie a svedoctvo Ježiša Krista a všetko, čo videl.

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.

³Blahoslavený, kto číta a tí, ktorí čujú slová tohoto proroctva a ostríhajú to, čo je napísané v ňom, lebo čas je blízko.

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;

⁴Ján siedmim sborom, ktoré sú v Ázii: milosť vám a pokoj od toho, ktorý je, ktorý bol a ktorý prijde, a od siedmich duchov, ktorí sú pred jeho trónom,

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,

⁵a od Ježiša Krista, ktorý je verný svedok, prvorodený z mŕtvych a Knieža kráľov zeme. Tomu, ktorý nás zamiloval a umyl nás od našich hriechov svojou krvou

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

⁶a učinil nás kráľmi a kňazmi Bohu a svojmu Otcovi - jemu sláva a sila na veky vekov. Ameň.

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.

⁷Hľa, prichádza s oblakmi, a uvidí ho každé oko, aj tí, ktorí ho prebodli, a nariekať budú nad ním všetky pokolenia zeme. Áno, ameň.

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.

⁸Ja som Alfa i Omega, počiatok i koniec, hovorí Pán, Bôh, ktorý je a ktorý bol a ktorý prijde, ten Všemohúci.

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.

⁹Ja Ján, i váš brat i spoluúčastník v súžení i v kráľovstve i v trpezlivosti Ježiša Krista, bol som na ostrove, ktorý sa volá Patmos, pre slovo Božie a pre svedoctvo Ježiša Krista.

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

¹⁰Bol som v duchu v deň Pánov a počul som za sebou veľký hlas ako hlas trúby,

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.

¹¹ktorý hovoril: Ja som Alfa i Omega, prvý aj posledný, a čo vidíš, píš do knihy a pošli siedmim sborom, ktoré sú v Ázii: do Efezu, do Smyrny, do Pergamu, do Tyatír, do Sárd, do Filadelfie a do Laodicee.

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

¹²A obrátil som sa, aby som videl hlas, ktorý hovoril so mnou. A keď som sa obrátil, videl som sedem zlatých svietnikov

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.

¹³a v prostredku medzi siedmimi svietnikmi som videl podobného Synovi človeka, oblečeného v dlhom rúchu až po nohy a prepásaného na prsiach zlatým pásom.

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

¹⁴A jeho hlava a jeho vlasy boly biele jako biela vlna, jako sneh, a jeho oči boly jako plameň ohňa,

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

¹⁵a jeho nohy boly podobné mosadzi, jako rozžeravenej v peci, a jeho hlas bol ako hlas mnohých vôd.

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.

¹⁶A vo svojej pravej ruke mal sedem hviezd, a z jeho úst vychádzal ostrý dvojsečný meč, a jeho tvár bola jako slnko, keď svieti vo svojej moci.

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:

¹⁷A keď som ho uvidel, padol som k jeho nohám ako mŕtvy, a položil na mňa svoju pravú ruku a povedal mi: Neboj sa! Ja som prvý a posledný

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.

¹⁸a ten Živý. A bol som mŕtvy, ale hľa, som živý na veky vekov. Ameň. A mám kľúče pekla i smrti.

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

¹⁹A tedy napíš, čo si videl a čo je a čo sa má diať po tomto.

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.

²⁰Tajomstvo siedmich hviezd, ktoré si videl na mojej pravici, a sedem zlatých svietnikov je toto: Sedem hviezd sú anjeli siedmich sborov, a sedem svietnikov, ktoré si videl, je sedem sborov.
