¹The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show unto his servants, [even] the 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 witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, [even] 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 the prophecy, and keep the things that 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 that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits that 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, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loveth us, and loosed us from our sins by his 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 he made us [to be] a kingdom, [to be] priests unto his God and Father; to him [be] the glory and the 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 the clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn over 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 the Alpha and the Omega, saith the Lord God, who is and who was and who 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, your brother and partaker with you in tribulation and kingdom and patience [which are] in Jesus, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.

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 I 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, What thou seest, write in a book and send [it] to the seven churches: unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, 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 having 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 candlesticks one like unto a son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about at the breasts 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.

¹⁴And his head and his hair were white as white wool, [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 burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace; and his voice as the voice 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 proceeded a sharp two-edged 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 one dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying, 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

¹⁸and the Living one; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades.

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

¹⁹Write therefore the things which thou sawest, and the things which are, and the things which shall come to pass 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 are 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.
