¹Deffir wayagi walaɣ lmelk nniḍen i d-yusan seg igenni, yesɛa lḥekma tameqqrant, ddunit meṛṛa tfeǧǧeǧ s tmanegt-is.

¹After these things I saw another angel descending out of the heaven, having great authority: and the earth was lightened with his glory.

²Iɛeggeḍ s ṣṣut ɛlayen yenna : Teɣli ! Teɣli temdint-nni tameqqrant n Babilun ! Tuɣal ț-țamezduɣt n ccwaṭen, d amkan anda țnejmaɛen leṛwaḥ imeɛfan, anda xeddmen leɛcuc-nsen leṭyuṛ iɛefnen.

²And he cried with a strong voice, saying, Great Babylon has fallen, has fallen, and has become the habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of every unclean and hated bird;

³Axaṭer tewwi leǧnas meṛṛa ɣer leǧhel s yir tikli-ines, igelliden n ddunit jehlen yid-es, wid yețțaɣen znuzun uɣalen d imeṛkantiyen s sselɛa ifazen i s-znuzun.

³because all the nations have drunk of the wine of the fury of her fornication; and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have been enriched through the might of her luxury.

⁴Sliɣ i yiwet taɣect i d-yekkan seg igenni teqqaṛ : Effɣet seg-s ay agdud-iw, iwakken ur tɣellim ara di ddnub-is, iwakken ur kkun-id-țawḍent ara lmuṣibat ara d-yeɣlin fell-as.

⁴And I heard another voice out of the heaven saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye have not fellowship in her sins, and that ye do not receive of her plagues:

⁵Axaṭer ddnubat-is ɛeddan tilas wwḍen ɣer igenni, amek ara yețțu Sidi Ṛebbi lbaṭel i texdem.

⁵for her sins have been heaped on one another up to the heaven, and God has remembered her unrighteousnesses.

⁶Xedmet as akken i wen-txeddem, ɛețțbet-eț akteṛ wayen i kkun-tɛețțeb, taqbuct nni n lemṛaṛ i tessew i wiyaḍ, ɛemmṛet-as-ț d lemṛaṛ yugaren win tessew nețțat.

⁶Recompense her even as she has recompensed; and double [to her] double, according to her works. In the cup which she has mixed, mix to her double.

⁷Akken tefka i yiman-is ccan, tɛac di lerbaḥ, ara s-tesseṛwum leɛtab d leḥzen, axaṭer teqqaṛ : Aql-iyi am ugellid, ur lliɣ ț-țaǧǧalt, ur țissineɣ leḥzen.

⁷So much as she has glorified herself and lived luxuriously, so much torment and grief give to her. Because she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and I am not a widow; and I shall in no wise see grief:

⁸Daymi, deg yiwen wass ara d-ɣlint fell-as lmuṣibat : lmut, leḥzen, laẓ akk-d tmes ara ț-yeččen. Axaṭer d Sidi Ṛebbi Bab n tezmert i ț-iɛuqben.

⁸for this reason in one day shall her plagues come, death and grief and famine, and she shall be burnt with fire; for strong [is the] Lord God who has judged her.

⁹Igelliden n ddunit meṛṛa i gɛacen deg-s di zzhu d zzna, ad țrun, ad meǧden fell-as, m'ara walin dexxan i gețțalin si tmes iceɛlen deg-s.

⁹And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication, and lived luxuriously with her, shall weep and wail over her, when they see the smoke of her burning,

¹⁰Imi uggaden a ten-taweḍ txeṣṣart, bedden mebɛid qqaṛen : A tawaɣit-im, a tawaɣit-im a tamdint n Babilun, tamdint tameqqrant yesɛan tazmert, deg yiwet n ssaɛa kan yeɣli-d fell-am lɛiqab.

¹⁰standing afar off, through fear of her torment, saying, Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! for in one hour thy judgment is come.

¹¹Wid yețțaɣen znuzun ad ilin di leḥzen ameqqran ad țrun, axaṭer ulac win ara yaɣen sselɛa-nsen,

¹¹And the merchants of the earth weep and grieve over her, because no one buys their lading any more;

¹²sselɛa-nni n ddheb d lfeṭṭa, idɣaɣen ɣlayen d iɛeqcan, lkețțan n lfina akk-d lkețțan azeggaɣ d leḥrir, sselɛa n yal asɣaṛ i d-yețțaken rriḥa taẓiḍant, leḥwayeǧ akk ineǧṛen s wacciwen n lfil, s wesɣaṛ ɣlayen d wayen yețwaxedmen s nnḥas d wuzzal akk-d eṛxem ;

¹²lading of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and pearl, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet dye, and all thyine wood, and every article in ivory, and every article in most precious wood, and in brass, and in iron, and in marble,

¹³ulac daɣen win ara yaɣen lqeṛfa, leɛqaqeṛ, leɛṭeṛ, lmuṛ, lebxuṛ, ccṛab, zzit, awren eṛqiqen akk-d yirden, izgaren, ulli, iɛewdiwen, ikeṛṛusen n umenɣi akk-d yemdanen i rran d aklan.

¹³and cinnamon, and amomum, and incense, and unguent, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies, and souls of men.

¹⁴A tamdint n Babilun, ayen akken tețmenniḍ iṛuḥ-am ibɛed fell-am, lerbaḥ-im d wayen akk mucaɛen ɣuṛ-em, ṛuḥen-am ur tețțuɣaleḍ ara a ten-tafeḍ.

¹⁴And the ripe fruits which were the lust of thy soul have departed from thee, and all fair and splendid things have perished from thee, and they shall not find them any more at all.

¹⁵Wid yețțaɣen znuzun leḥwayeǧ di temdint-agi yuɣalen d imeṛkantiyen, ad qqimen mebɛid ad aggaden a ten-taweḍ twaɣit, ad țrun, ad ilin di leḥzen ;

¹⁵The merchants of these things, who had been enriched through her, shall stand afar off through fear of her torment, weeping and grieving,

¹⁶ad inin : A tawaɣit ! A tawaɣit ! Tamdint nni yellan am tmeṭṭut yețlusun lkețțan eṛqiqen d llebsa tazeggaɣt ifazen, yețɛelliqen iɛeqcan ɣlayen, idɣaɣen n lyaman n mkul ṣṣenf akk-d ddheb,

¹⁶saying, Woe, woe, the great city, which [was] clothed with fine linen and purple and scarlet, and had ornaments of gold and precious stones and pearls!

¹⁷deg yiwet n ssaɛa kan, kullec yuɣal d iɣed ! Lqebṭanat n lbabuṛat d ixeddamen nsen, ibeḥṛiyen akk-d wid yețsafaṛen di lebḥuṛ ɣer tmurt-nni qqimen mebɛid,

¹⁷for in one hour so great riches has been made desolate. And every steersman, and every one who sailed to any place, and sailors, and all who exercise their calling on the sea, stood afar off,

¹⁸țɛeggiḍen mi walan dexxan n tmes yeččan tamdint-nni, qqaṛen : Anta tamdint yecban tamdint agi ?

¹⁸and cried, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying, What [city] is like to the great city?

¹⁹ Bdan ṭeggiṛen aɣebbaṛ ɣef yiqeṛṛay-nsen, țrun țmeǧǧiden, țɛeggiḍen qqaṛen : A tawaɣit-im ! A tawaɣit-im a tamdint tameqqrant, isrebḥen wid akk yesɛan lbabuṛat di lebḥur, deg yiwet teswiɛt kan tnegreḍ tuɣaleḍ d iɣed.

¹⁹and cast dust upon their heads, and cried, weeping and grieving, saying, Woe, woe, the great city, in which all that had ships in the sea were enriched through her costliness! for in one hour she has been made desolate.

²⁰A wid yextaṛ Sidi Ṛebbi, a wid i d-iceggeɛ ad beccṛen awal-is, a lenbiya, ay igenwan, ilit di lfeṛḥ ɣef wayen yedṛan yid-es, axaṭer Sidi Ṛebbi iɛuqeb-iț ɣef wayen i wen texdem.

²⁰Rejoice over her, heaven, and [ye] saints and apostles and prophets; for God has judged your judgment upon her.

²¹Imiren yiwen lmelk yesɛan tazmert tameqqrant, yeddem-ed tablaṭ annect n uɣaṛef n tsirt, iḍeggeṛ-iț ɣer lebḥeṛ yenna : Akka ara tețțuḍeggeṛ temdint tameqqrant n Babilun, ur tețțuɣal a d-tban ;

²¹And a strong angel took up a stone, as a great millstone, and cast [it] into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall Babylon the great city be cast down, and shall be found no more at all;

²²ur nețțuɣal a nsel i ṣṣut n wid yekkaten snitra d wid i gcennun akk-d wid yekkaten ajewwaq d lbuq. Ur d-yețɣimi deg-em ṣṣaneɛ, ur nețțɣal a nsel i iɣuṛaf n tessirt.

²²and voice of harp-singers and musicians and flute-players and trumpeters shall not be heard any more at all in thee, and no artificer of any art shall be found any more at all in thee, and voice of millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee,

²³Ur tețțuɣal a d-tban deg-em tafat, ur nețțuɣal a nsel i taɣect n yesli ț-țeslit. Aț-țwaɛaqbeḍ a tamdint n Babilun imi imestujaṛ-im, d nutni i gellan d imeqqranen di ddunit ; leǧnas meṛṛa țwaxedɛen s ssḥur i txeddmeḍ ;

²³and light of lamp shall shine no more at all in thee, and voice of bridegroom and bride shall be heard no more at all in thee; for thy merchants were the great ones of the earth; for by thy sorcery have all the nations been deceived.

²⁴axaṭer deg-em i yuzzlen idammen n lenbiya d wid yextaṛ Sidi Ṛebbi akk-d wid meṛṛa yemmezlen di ddunit.

²⁴And in her was found [the] blood of prophets and saints, and of all the slain upon the earth.
