¹Potom som videl, a hľa, dvere boly otvorené na nebi, a ten prvý hlas, ktorý som počul ako trúbu, hovoriacu so mnou, vravel: Vystúp sem hore, a ukážem ti, čo sa musí stať potom.

¹After these things I saw, and lo, a door opened in the heaven, and the first voice that I heard [is] as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, `Come up hither, and I will shew thee what it behoveth to come to pass after these things;`

²A hneď som bol v duchu. A hľa, trón stál na nebi, a na tróne ktosi sediaci.

²and immediately I was in the Spirit, and lo, a throne was set in the heaven, and upon the throne is [one] sitting,

³A ten, ktorý to sedel na tróne, bol na pohľad podobný kameňu jaspisu a sardisu, a dúha bola vôkol trónu, na pohľad podobná smaragdu.

³and He who is sitting was in sight like a stone, jasper and sardine: and a rainbow was round the throne in sight like an emerald.

⁴A okolo trónu stálo dvadsaťštyri trónov, a na trónoch som videl dvadsaťštyri starcov, sediacich, oblečených v bielych rúchach, a na svojich hlavách mali zlaté koruny.

⁴And around the throne [are] thrones twenty and four, and upon the thrones I saw the twenty and four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and they had upon their heads crowns of gold;

⁵A z trónu vychádzaly blesky a hromy a hlasy a pred trónom horelo sedem ohnivých lampád, ktoré sú siedmi duchovia Boží,

⁵and out of the throne proceed do lightnings, and thunders, and voices; and seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the Seven Spirits of God,

⁶a pred trónom bolo čosi jako sklené more, podobné kryštálu, a prostred trónu a vôkol trónu štyri živé bytosti, plné očí zpredu i zozadu.

⁶and before the throne [is] a sea of glass like to crystal, and in the midst of the throne, and round the throne, [are] four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind;

⁷A prvá živá bytosť bola podobná ľvovi, druhá živá bytosť podobná teľaťu, tretia živá bytosť mala tvár ako človek, a štvrtá živá bytosť bola podobná letiacemu orlovi.

⁷and the first living creature [is] like a lion, and the second living creature [is] like a calf, and the third living creature hath the face as a man, and the fourth living creature [is] like an eagle flying.

⁸A štyri živé bytosti, jedna každá z nich, maly po šiestich krýdlach okolo, a zvnútra boly plné očí. A nemajú odpočinku ani vodne ani vnoci a hovoria: Svätý, svätý, svätý Pán Bôh všemohúci, ktorý bol, ktorý je a ktorý prijde.

⁸And the four living creatures, each by itself severally, had six wings, around and within [are] full of eyes, and rest they have not day and night, saying, `Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is coming;`

⁹A keď dajú živé bytosti sediacemu na tróne, živému na veky vekov, slávu a česť a vďaku,

⁹and when the living creatures do give glory, and honour, and thanks, to Him who is sitting upon the throne, who is living to the ages of the ages,

¹⁰padnú dvadsiati štyria starci pred sediacim na tróne a budú sa klaňať živému na veky vekov a hodia svoje koruny pred trónom hovoriac:

¹⁰fall down do the twenty and four elders before Him who is sitting upon the throne, and bow before Him who is living to the ages of the ages, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying,

¹¹Hoden si, Pane a náš Bože, vziať slávu a česť a moc, lebo ty si stvoril všetky veci, a pre tvoju vôľu sú a boly stvorené.

¹¹`Worthy art Thou, O Lord, to receive the glory, and the honour, and the power, because Thou — Thou didst create the all things, and because of Thy will are they, and they were created.`
