¹Potom som videl iného anjela, sostupujúceho z neba, ktorý mal veľkú moc, a zem bola osvietená od jeho slávy.

¹After these things, I saw another angel coming down out of the sky, having great authority. The earth was illuminated with his glory.

²A skríkol silne, veľkým hlasom a hovoril: Padol, padol veľký Babylon a stal sa bývaniskom démonov a žalárom každého ducha nečistého a žalárom každého vtáka nečistého a nenávideného,

²He cried with a mighty voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and she has become a habitation of demons, a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird!

³lebo z vína prchlivosti jeho smilstva pily všetky národy, a kráľovia zeme smilnili s ním, a kupci zeme zbohatli z moci jeho buje.

³For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality, the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from the abundance of her luxury.”

⁴A počul som iný hlas z neba, ktorý hovoril: Vyjdite z neho, môj ľude, aby ste sa nezúčastnili jeho hriechov a aby ste nedostali z jeho rán.

⁴I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, my people, that you have no participation in her sins, and that you don’t receive of her plagues,

⁵Lebo jeho hriechy dosiahly až do neba, a Bôh sa rozpamätal na jeho neprávosti.

⁵for her sins have reached to the sky, and God has remembered her iniquities.

⁶Odplaťte mu, jako aj on vám platil, a dajte mu dvojnásobne podľa jeho skutkov. Do pohára, do ktorého nalieval, nalejte mu dvojnásobne;

⁶Return to her just as she returned, and repay her double as she did, and according to her works. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.

⁷na koľko sa oslávil a zbujnel, toľko mu dajte múk a žiaľu. Lebo hovorí vo svojom srdci: Sedím kráľovná a nie som vdovou a žiaľu neuvidím nikdy.

⁷However much she glorified herself, and grew wanton, so much give her of torment and mourning. For she says in her heart, ‘I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see mourning.’

⁸Preto jedného dňa prijdú jeho rany, smrť a žiaľ a hlad, a bude spálený ohňom, lebo je silný Pán Bôh, ktorý ho súdi.

⁸Therefore in one day her plagues will come: death, mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for the Lord God who has judged her is strong.

⁹A budú plakať za ním a kvíliť budú nad ním kráľovia zeme, ktorí s ním smilnili a rozkošili v buji, keď budú vidieť dym jeho požiaru

⁹The kings of the earth, who committed sexual immorality and lived wantonly with her, will weep and wail over her, when they look at the smoke of her burning,

¹⁰stojac zďaleka pre bázeň jeho múk a budú hovoriť: Beda, beda, veliké mesto, to silné mesto Babylon, že v jednej hodine prišiel jeho súd.

¹⁰standing far away for the fear of her torment, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For your judgment has come in one hour.’

¹¹Aj kupci zeme budú plakať a žialiť nad ním, pretože nikto viac nekúpi ich tovaru,

¹¹The merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise any more;

¹²tovaru zlata a striebra a drahého kameňa, periel, kmentu, purpuru, hodvábu, šarlátu a všelijakého dreva thvinového, všelijakých nádob zo slonovej kosti a všelijakého náradia z najdrahšieho dreva, z medi, zo železa a z mramoru

¹²merchandise of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet, all expensive wood, every vessel of ivory, every vessel made of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble;

¹³a škorice a rozváňajúceho amónu, tymianu a vzácnej masti a libánskeho kadiva, vína a oleja a jemnej múky pšeničnej, pšenice a dobytka a oviec a koní a vozov a otrokov a ľudských duší.

¹³and cinnamon, incense, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, sheep, horses, chariots, and people’s bodies and souls.

¹⁴A ovocie žiadosti tvojej duše odišlo od teba, i všetko tučné a nádherné zhynulo a bolo odňaté od teba, a už toho viac nikdy nenajdeš.

¹⁴The fruits which your soul lusted after have been lost to you, and all things that were dainty and sumptuous have perished from you, and you will find them no more at all.

¹⁵Kupci s tými vecami, ktorí boli zbohatli z neho, budú stáť zďaleka pre bázeň jeho múk plačúc a žalostiac

¹⁵The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far away for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning;

¹⁶a budú hovoriť: Beda, beda, to veľké mesto, ktoré bolo odiate kmentom, purpurom a šarlátom a bolo pokryté zlatom a drahým kamením a perlami, že v jednej hodine je spustošené také veľké bohatstvo.

¹⁶saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, she who was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls!

¹⁷A všetci kormidelníci a všetci, ktorí sa plavia na lodiach, a plavci a všetci, ktorí robia na mori, budú stáť zďaleka

¹⁷For in an hour such great riches are made desolate.’ Every shipmaster, and everyone who sails anywhere, and mariners, and as many as gain their living by sea, stood far away,

¹⁸a budú kričať, keď budú vidieť dym jeho požiaru a budú hovoriť: Kde ktoré mesto bolo kedy podobné tomu veľkému mestu?!

¹⁸and cried out as they looked at the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘What is like the great city?’

¹⁹A sypali prach na svoje hlavy a kričali, plakali, žialili a hovorili: Beda, beda, to veľké mesto, v ktorom zbohatli všetci, ktorí mali lode na mori, z jeho drahocennosti, že tak v jednej hodine spustlo!

¹⁹They cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had their ships in the sea were made rich by reason of her great wealth!’ For in one hour is she made desolate.

²⁰Veseľ sa nad ním nebo, i vy svätí a apoštolovia a proroci, pretože Bôh vykonal váš súd na ňom.

²⁰“Rejoice over her, O heaven, you saints, apostles, and prophets; for God has judged your judgment on her.”

²¹A jeden silný anjel zodvihol kameň ako veliký žernov a hodil ho do mora a povedal: Tak prudko bude svrhnutý Babylon, to veľké mesto, a viacej sa nikdy nenajde.

²¹A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all.

²²A nikdy viacej sa nepočuje v tebe hlas harfeníkov a iných hudobníkov, pískačov a trubačov. A viac nikdy sa nenajde v tebe nijaký remeselník nijakého remesla, ani sa viacej nepočuje v tebe hukot mlyna,

²²The voice of harpists, minstrels, flute players, and trumpeters will be heard no more at all in you. No craftsman, of whatever craft, will be found any more at all in you. The sound of a mill will be heard no more at all in you.

²³ani už nikdy viac nezasvieti v tebe svetlo sviece, ani sa viacej nepočuje v tebe hlas ženícha a nevesty, pretože tvoji kupci boli veľmožmi zeme, pretože tvojimi čary zvedené boly do bludu všetky národy. -

²³The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you; for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived.

²⁴A našla sa v ňom krv prorokov a svätých a všetkých pobitých na zemi.

²⁴In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth.”
