¹and he stood upon the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns, and seven heads, and on his horns ten diadems, and upon his heads names of blasphemy.

¹Ma nägin merest üles tulevat metsalist, kellel oli seitse pead ja kümme sarve, ning ta sarvede peal kümme peaehet, ning ta peade peal olid jumalateotuse nimed.

²And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as [the feet] of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority.

²Ja metsaline, keda ma nägin, oli pantri sarnane ning ta jalad olid otsekui karul ning ta suu oli nagu lõvi suu. Lohe andis temale oma väe ja oma trooni ja suure meelevalla.

³And [I saw] one of his heads as though it had been smitten unto death; and his death-stroke was healed: and the whole earth wondered after the beast;

³Üks ta peadest oli nagu surmavalt haavatud, ent tema surmahaav paranes.Kogu ilmamaa oli imestunud, käies metsalise järel,

⁴and they worshipped the dragon, because he gave his authority unto the beast; and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? And who is able to war with him?

⁴ning nad kummardasid lohet, et ta metsalisele oli andnud meelevalla, ning nad kummardasid metsalist ja ütlesid: 'Kes on metsalise sarnane ja kes suudab temaga sõdida?'

⁵and there was given to him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and there was given to him authority to continue forty and two months.

⁵Talle anti suu rääkida suuri asju ja teotada Jumalat ning talle anti meelevald tegutseda nelikümmend ja kaks kuud.

⁶And he opened his mouth for blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, [even] them that dwell in the heaven.

⁶Ja ta avas oma suu Jumala teotamiseks, et teotada tema nime ja tema telki - neid, kes viibivad taevas.

⁷And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.

⁷Talle anti voli pidada sõda pühadega ja neid võita, ning talle anti meelevald iga suguharu ja rahva ja keele ja paganahõimu üle.

⁸And all that dwell on the earth shall worship him, [every one] whose name hath not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb that hath been slain.

⁸Teda hakkasid kummardama kõik, kes ilmamaal elavad, kelle nime ei ole maailma rajamisest saadik kirjutatud tapetud Talle eluraamatusse.

⁹If any man hath an ear, let him hear.

⁹Kui kellelgi on kõrv, siis ta kuulgu!

¹⁰If any man [is] for captivity, into captivity he goeth: if any man shall kill with the sword, with the sword must he be killed. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

¹⁰Kui keegi peab vangipõlve minema, siis vangipõlve ta läheb. Kui keegi peab tapetama mõõgaga, siis mõõgaga ta tapetakse. Siin olgu pühadel kannatlikkust ja usku!

¹¹And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like unto lamb, and he spake as a dragon.

¹¹Ma nägin maast üles tulevat teist metsalist, sel oli kaks sarve otsekui tallel ning ta rääkis nagu lohe.

¹²And he exerciseth all the authority of the first beast in his sight. And he maketh the earth and them dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose death-stroke was healed.

¹²Ta tegi kõik esimese metsalise meelevallaga tema ees ning ta tegi, et ilmamaa ja need, kes seal elavad, kummardaksid esimest metsalist, kelle surmahaav oli paranenud.

¹³And he doeth great signs, that he should even make fire to come down out of heaven upon the earth in the sight of men.

¹³Ja ta tegi suuri tunnustähti, nõnda et ta lasi ka tule taevast maa peale maha tulla inimeste silme ees,

¹⁴And he deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by reason of the signs which it was given him to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who hath the stroke of the sword and lived.

¹⁴ning ta eksitas ilmamaa elanikke tunnustähtedega, mis talle oli antud teha metsalise ees, käskides ilmamaa elanikke teha kuju metsalisele, kellel oli mõõgahaav ning kes oli tõusnud ellu.

¹⁵And it was given [unto him] to give breath to it, [even] to the image to the breast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as should not worship the image of the beast should be killed.

¹⁵Talle anti meelevald anda vaimu metsalise kujule, et ka metsalise kuju räägiks ja teeks, et tapetaks igaüks, kes ei kummarda metsalise kuju.

¹⁶And he causeth all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bond, that there be given them a mark on their right hand, or upon their forehead;

¹⁶Ja ta tegi, et kõik - pisikesed ja suured, rikkad ja vaesed, vabad ja orjad - võtaksid endale märgi oma paremale käele või oma otsaette,

¹⁷and that no man should be able to buy or to sell, save he that hath the mark, [even] the name of the beast or the number of his name.

¹⁷ning et keegi muu ei tohiks osta ega müüa kui vaid see, kellel on märk, kas metsalise nimi või tema nime arv.

¹⁸Here is wisdom. He that hath understanding, let him count the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty and six.

¹⁸Siin olgu tarkust! Kellel on mõistust, see arvutagu välja metsalise arv, sest see on inimese arv, ja tema arv on kuussada kuuskümmend kuus.
