¹A ukázal mi čistú rieku vody života, nádhernú jako kryštál, ktorá vychádza z trónu Boha a Baránka.

¹And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, bright as crystal, going forth out of the throne of God and of the Lamb:

²Prostred jeho ulice, prostred ulice mesta, a z jednej i z druhej strany rieky bolo drevo života, ktoré rodí dvanástoré ovocie a vydáva svoje ovocie každý mesiac. A lístie dreva je na službu národom.

²in the midst of its broad place, and of the river on this side and on that, [is] a tree of life, yielding twelve fruits, in each several month rendering its fruits, and the leaves of the tree [are] for the service of the nations;

³A nebude viacej ničoho zlorečeného, a trón Boží a Baránkov bude v ňom, a jeho sluhovia mu budú svätoslúžiť

³and any curse there shall not be any more, and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him,

⁴a budú vidieť jeho tvár, a jeho meno bude na ich čelách.

⁴and they shall see His face, and His name [is] upon their foreheads,

⁵A noci tam už nebude. A nebudú potrebovať svetla sviece ani svetla slnca, lebo Pán Bôh ich bude osvecovať, a budú kraľovať na veky vekov.

⁵and night shall not be there, and they have no need of a lamp and light of a sun, because the Lord God doth give them light, and they shall reign — to the ages of the ages.

⁶A riekol mi: Tieto slová sú verné a pravdivé. A Pán Bôh svätých (duchov) a prorokov poslal svojho anjela, aby ukázal svojim sluhom, čo sa musí stať naskore.

⁶And he said to me, `These words [are] stedfast and true, and the Lord God of the holy prophets did send His messenger to shew to His servants the things that it behoveth to come quickly:

⁷A hľa, prijdem skoro! Blahoslavený, kto ostríha slová proroctva tejto knihy.

⁷Lo, I come quickly; happy [is] he who is keeping the words of the prophecy of this scroll.`

⁸A ja, Ján, som to videl a počul. A keď som to počul a videl, padol som, aby som sa klaňal pred nohami anjela, ktorý mi to ukazoval.

⁸And I, John, am he who is seeing these things and hearing, and when I heard and beheld, I fell down to bow before the feet of the messenger who is shewing me these things;

⁹Ale mi povedal: Hľaď, neurob toho! Lebo som tvoj spolusluha a tvojich bratov prorokov a tých, ktorí ostríhajú slová tejto knihy. Bohu sa klaňaj!

⁹and he saith to me, `See — not; for fellow-servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of those keeping the words of this scroll; before God bow.`

¹⁰A riekol mi: Nezapečať slov proroctva tejto knihy, lebo čas je blízko.

¹⁰And he saith to me, `Thou mayest not seal the words of the prophecy of this scroll, because the time is nigh;

¹¹Kto robí neprávosť, nech len robí neprávosť ešte; a kto špiní, nech špiní ešte; a spravedlivý nech činí spravedlivosť ešte, a svätý nech sa posvätí ešte.

¹¹he who is unrighteous — let him be unrighteous still, and he who is filthy — let him be filthy still, and he who is righteous — let him be declared righteous still, and he who is sanctified — let him be sanctified still:

¹²A hľa, prijdem skoro a moja odplata so mnou, aby som odplatil jednému každému podľa toho, jaký bude jeho skutok.

¹²And lo, I come quickly, and my reward [is] with me, to render to each as his work shall be;

¹³Ja som Alfa i Omega, počiatok i koniec, prvý i posledný.

¹³I am the Alpha and the Omega — the Beginning and End — the First and the Last.

¹⁴Blahoslavení, ktorí (perú svoje rúcha a) činia jeho prikázania, aby mali právo k drevu života a aby vošli bránami do mesta.

¹⁴`Happy are those doing His commands that the authority shall be theirs unto the tree of the life, and by the gates they may enter into the city;

¹⁵A vonku budú psi a čarodejníci a smilníci a vrahovia a modlári a každý, kto má rád a činí lož.

¹⁵and without [are] the dogs, and the sorcerers, and the whoremongers, and the murderers, and the idolaters, and every one who is loving and is doing a lie.

¹⁶Ja, Ježiš, som poslal svojho anjela, aby vám toto svedčil po sboroch. Ja som koreň a rod Dávidov, hviezda, jasná a ranná.

¹⁶`I, Jesus did send my messenger to testify to you these things concerning the assemblies; I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright and morning star!

¹⁷A Duch a nevesta hovoria: Prijdi! A ten, kto počuje, nech povie: Prijdi! A kto žízni, nech prijde, a kto chce, nech berie vodu života zadarmo.

¹⁷And the Spirit and the Bride say, Come; and he who is hearing — let him say, Come; and he who is thirsting — let him come; and he who is willing — let him take the water of life freely.

¹⁸Lebo ja osvedčujem každému, kto čuje slová proroctva tejto knihy, že keby niekto pridal k tomu, na toho Bôh pridá rán, napísaných v tejto knihe;

¹⁸`For I testify to every one hearing the words of the prophecy of this scroll, if any one may add unto these, God shall add to him the plagues that have been written in this scroll,

¹⁹a keby niekto odňal zo slov knihy tohoto proroctva, tomu odníme Bôh jeho diel z knihy života a z toho svätého mesta a z toho, čo je napísané v tejto knihe.

¹⁹and if any one may take away from the words of the scroll of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the scroll of the life, and out of the holy city, and the things that have been written in this scroll;`

²⁰Hovorí ten, ktorý svedčí toto: Áno, prijdem skoro! Ameň. Áno, prijdi, Pane Ježišu!

²⁰he saith — who is testifying these things — `Yes, I come quickly!` Amen! Yes, be coming, Lord Jesus!

²¹Milosť našeho Pána Ježiša Krista so všetkými vami. Ameň.

²¹The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [is] with you all. Amen.
