¹And after these things I heard a great voice of a great multitude in the heaven, saying, `Alleluia! the salvation, and the glory, and the honour, and the power, [is] to the Lord our God;

¹¶ Na, muri iho i enei mea ka rangona e ahau he reo nui me te mea no te mano tini i te rangi, e mea ana, Areruia; Ko te whakaoranga, ko te kororia, ko te honore, ko te kaha, kei te Ariki, kei to tatou Atua;

²because true and righteous [are] His judgments, because He did judge the great whore who did corrupt the earth in her whoredom, and He did avenge the blood of His servants at her hand;`

²He pono hoki, he tika ana whakawa: kua whakawakia hoki e ia te wahine kairua, te mea nui, i he ai te whenua i tona moepuku, kua rapua ano e ia he utu i a ia mo nga toto o ana pononga.

³and a second time they said, `Alleluia;` and her smoke doth come up — to the ages of the ages!

³Na ka tuaruatia ano a ratou meatanga, Areruia. Heoi kake ake ana te paoa o taua pa ake ake.

⁴And fall down did the elders — the twenty and four — and the four living creatures, and they did bow before God who is sitting upon the throne, saying, `Amen, Alleluia.`

⁴A takoto ana nga kaumatua e rua tekau ma wha me nga mea ora e wha, koropiko ana ki te Atua e noho ana i runga i te torona, mea ana, Amine; Areruia.

⁵And a voice out of the throne did come forth, saying, `Praise our God, all ye His servants, and those fearing Him, both the small and the great;`

⁵¶ A ka puta mai he reo i te torona, e mea ana, Whakamoemiti ki to tatou Atua, e ana pononga katoa, e te hunga hoki e wehi ana i a ia, e te hunga iti, e te hunga nunui.

⁶and I heard as the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, `Alleluia! because reign did the Lord God — the Almighty!

⁶Na ka rangona e ahau me te mea he reo no te mano tini, me te mea he haruru no nga wai maha, me te mea he haruru no nga whatitiri kaha, e mea ana, Areruia: ka kingi hoki te Ariki, to tatou Atua, te Kaha Rawa.

⁷may we rejoice and exult, and give the glory to Him, because come did the marriage of the Lamb, and his wife did make herself ready;

⁷Kia hari tatou, kia nui rawa te koa, kia hoatu he kororia ki a ia: kua taea hoki te marena o te Reme, kua oti ano te whakapai a tana wahine i a ia ano.

⁸and there was given to her that she may be arrayed with fine linen, pure and shining, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.`

⁸I tukua hoki ki a ia kia whakakakahuria ia ki te rinena pai, ki te rinena kanapa, parukore: na, ko te rinena pai ra, ko nga mahi tika a te hunga tapu.

⁹And he saith to me, `Write: Happy [are] they who to the supper of the marriage of the Lamb have been called;` and he saith to me, `These [are] the true words of God;`

⁹I mea mai ano ia ki ahau, Tuhituhia, Ka hari te hunga kua karangatia ki te hapa o te marena o te Reme. Ka mea mai ano ia ki ahau, Ko nga kupu pono enei a te Atua.

¹⁰and I fell before his feet, to bow before him, and he saith to me, `See — not! fellow servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren, those having the testimony of Jesus; bow before God, for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of the prophecy.`

¹⁰Na ka takoto ahau ki mua i ona waewae, ka mea kia koropiko ki a ia. A ka mea mai ia ki ahau, Kauaka: he hoa pononga hoki ahau no koutou ko ou tuakana kei a ratou nei te whakaatu o Ihu: me koropiko ki te Atua: ko te whakaatu hoki i a Ihu ta te wa irua o te poropititanga.

¹¹And I saw the heaven having been opened, and lo, a white horse, and he who is sitting upon it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness doth he judge and war,

¹¹¶ A ka kite ahau i te rangi e tuwhera ana, na, he hoiho ma; ko te ingoa hoki o tona kainoho ko te Pono, ko te Tika, kei runga i te tika tana whakawa, tana whawhai.

¹²and his eyes [are] as a flame of fire, and upon his head [are] many diadems — having a name written that no one hath known, except himself,

¹²A ko ona kanohi, ano he mura ahi, a i runga i tona matenga nga karauna maha; he ingoa hoki tona kua oti te tuhituhi, e kore nei tetahi e matau, ko ia anake.

¹³and he is arrayed with a garment covered with blood, and his name is called, The Word of God.

¹³Ko te kakahu i kakahuria e ia he mea tuku ki te toto: ko te ingoa i huaina ai ia ko te Kupu a te Atua.

¹⁴And the armies in the heaven were following him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen — white and pure;

¹⁴A ko nga taua kei te rangi e aru ana i a ia i runga i nga hoiho ma, he mea whakakakahu ratou ki te rinena pai, he mea ma, parukore.

¹⁵and out of his mouth doth proceed a sharp sword, that with it he may smite the nations, and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, and he doth tread the press of the wine of the wrath and the anger of God the Almighty,

¹⁵E puta mai ana hoki i roto i tona mangai he hoari koi, hei patu mana i nga tauiwi: he rino ano hoki te tokotoko e tohutohu ai ia i a ratou: e takahi ana hoki ia i te takahanga waina o te aritarita o te riri o te Atua Kaha Rawa.

¹⁶and he hath upon the garment and upon his thigh the name written, `King of kings, and Lord of lords.`

¹⁶He ingoa ano tona, tuhituhi rawa ki tona kakahu, ki tona huha, KO TE KINGI O NGA KINGI, KO TE ARIKI O NGA ARIKI.

¹⁷And I saw one messenger standing in the sun, and he cried, a great voice, saying to all the birds that are flying in mid-heaven, `Come and be gathered together to the supper of the great God,

¹⁷I kite ano ahau i tetahi anahera e tu ana i te ra; he nui ano tona reo ki te karanga, i mea ia ki nga manu katoa e rere ana i waenganui o te rangi, haere mai, me huihui mai ki te hapa nui a te Atua;

¹⁸that ye may eat flesh of kings, and flesh of chiefs of thousands, and flesh of strong men, and flesh of horses, and of those sitting on them, and the flesh of all — freemen and servants — both small and great.`

¹⁸Ki te kai i nga kikokiko o nga kingi, i nga kikokiko o nga rangatira mano, i nga kikokiko o te hunga kaha, i nga kikokiko o nga hoiho, o o ratou kainoho hoki, i nga kikokiko o nga tangata katoa, o nga mea ehara nei i te pononga, o nga pononga an o hoki, o te hunga nonohi, o te hunga nunui.

¹⁹And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, having been gathered together to make war with him who is sitting upon the horse, and with his army;

¹⁹A ka kite ahau i te kararehe, me nga kingi o te whenua, me a ratou taua, kua huihuia ki te whawhai ki tera e noho ra i runga i te hoiho, ki tana taua hoki.

²⁰and the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who did the signs before him, in which he led astray those who did receive the mark of the beast, and those who did bow before his image; living they were cast — the two — to the lake of the fire, that is burning with brimstone;

²⁰Na ka hopukina te kararehe raua tahi ko te poropiti teka i mahi ra i nga tohu ki tona aroaro, i pohehe ai te hunga i tango i te tohu a te kararehe, i koropiko hoki ki tona whakapakoko. Na panga oratia ana raua tokorua ki te roto kapura e ka ana i te whanariki.

²¹and the rest were killed with the sword of him who is sitting on the horse, which [sword] is proceeding out of his mouth, and all the birds were filled out of their flesh.

²¹Na, ko te hunga i toe, i whakamatea ki te hoari a tera e noho ra i runga i te hoiho, ki te hoari e puta mai nei i roto i tona mangai: a makona ana nga manu katoa i o ratou kikokiko.
