¹ܘܐܬܐ ܚܕ ܡܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܫܒܥ ܙܒܘܪܝܢ ܘܡܠܠ ܥܡܝ ܠܡܐܡܪ ܬܐ ܒܬܪܝ ܐܚܘܝܟ ܕܝܢܐ ܕܙܢܝܬܐ ܕܝܬܒܐ ܥܠ ܡܝܐ ܤܓܝܐܐ ܀

¹And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:

²ܕܥܡܗ ܙܢܝܘ ܡܠܟܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܘܪܘܝܘ ܟܠܗܘܢ ܥܡܘܪܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܡܢ ܚܡܪܐ ܕܙܢܝܘܬܗ ܀

²With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

³ܘܐܦܩܢܝ ܠܚܘܪܒܐ ܒܪܘܚ ܘܚܙܝܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܕܝܬܒܐ ܥܠ ܚܝܘܬܐ ܤܘܡܩܬܐ ܕܡܠܝܐ ܫܡܗܐ ܕܓܘܕܦܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܪܫܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܩܪܢܬܐ ܕܝܢ ܥܤܪ ܀

³So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

⁴ܘܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܕܡܥܛܦܐ ܐܪܓܘܢܐ ܘܙܚܘܪܝܬܐ ܕܡܕܗܒܢ ܒܕܗܒܐ ܘܟܐܦܐ ܛܒܬܐ ܘܡܪܓܢܝܬܐ ܘܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܟܤܐ ܕܕܗܒܐ ܥܠ ܐܝܕܗ ܘܡܠܐ ܛܡܐܘܬܐ ܘܤܘܝܒܐ ܕܙܢܝܘܬܗ ܀

⁴And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

⁵ܘܥܠ ܒܝܬ ܥܝܢܝܗ ܟܬܝܒ ܐܪܙܐ ܒܒܝܠ ܪܒܬܐ ܐܡܐ ܕܙܢܝܬܐ ܘܕܤܘܝܒܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܀

⁵And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

⁶ܘܚܙܝܬ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܕܪܘܝܐ ܡܢ ܕܡܐ ܕܩܕܝܫܐ ܘܡܢ ܕܡܐ ܕܤܗܕܘܗܝ ܕܝܫܘܥ ܘܐܬܕܡܪܬ ܕܘܡܪܐ ܪܒܐ ܟܕ ܚܙܝܬܗ ܀

⁶And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.

⁷ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܡܠܐܟܐ ܠܡܢܐ ܐܬܕܡܪܬ ܐܢܐ ܐܡܪ ܐܢܐ ܠܟ ܪܐܙܐ ܕܐܢܬܬܐ ܘܕܚܝܘܬܐ ܕܛܥܝܢܐ ܠܗ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܫܒܥܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܘܥܤܪ ܩܪܢܢ ܀

⁷And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.

⁸ܚܝܘܬܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܘܠܝܬܝܗ ܥܬܝܕܐ ܕܬܤܩ ܡܢ ܝܡܐ ܘܠܐܒܕܢܐ ܐܙܠܐ ܘܢܬܕܡܪܘܢ ܥܡܪܝ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ ܗܢܘܢ ܕܠܐ ܟܬܝܒܝܢ ܫܡܗܝܗܘܢ ܒܤܦܪܐ ܕܚܝܐ ܡܢ ܬܪܡܝܬܗ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܕܚܙܝܢ ܚܝܘܬܐ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܗܘܬ ܘܠܝܬܝܗ ܘܩܪܒܬ ܀

⁸The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

⁹ܗܪܟܐ ܗܘܢܐ ܠܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܚܟܡܬܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܪܫܝܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܛܘܪܝܢ ܐܝܟܐ ܕܝܬܒܐ ܐܢܬܬܐ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܀

⁹And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.

¹⁰ܘܡܠܟܐ ܫܒܥܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܚܡܫܐ ܢܦܠܘ ܘܚܕ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ ܗܘ ܐܚܪܢܐ ܠܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܐܬܐ ܘܡܐ ܕܐܬܐ ܩܠܝܠ ܝܗܝܒ ܠܗ ܠܡܟܬܪܘ ܀

¹⁰And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.

¹¹ܘܬܢܝܢܐ ܘܚܝܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܕܐܝܬܝܗ ܘܠܝܬܝܗ ܘܗܝ ܕܬܡܢܝܐ ܘܡܢ ܫܒܥܐ ܗܝ ܘܠܐܒܕܢܐ ܐܙܠܐ ܀

¹¹And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

¹²ܘܥܤܪ ܩܪܢܢ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܥܤܪܐ ܡܠܟܝܢ ܐܢܘܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܠܐ ܥܕܟܝܠ ܢܤܒܘ ܐܠܐ ܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܠܟܐ ܚܕܐ ܫܥܬܐ ܫܩܠܝܢ ܥܡ ܚܝܘܬܐ ܀

¹²And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

¹³ܗܠܝܢ ܚܕ ܨܒܝܢܐ ܐܝܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܚܝܠܐ ܘܫܘܠܛܢܐ ܕܝܠܗܘܢ ܠܚܝܘܬܐ ܝܗܒܝܢ ܀

¹³These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

¹⁴ܗܠܝܢ ܥܡ ܐܡܪܐ ܢܩܪܒܘܢ ܘܐܡܪܐ ܢܙܟܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܡܪܐ ܗܘ ܕܡܪܘܬܐ ܘܡܠܟ ܡܠܟܐ ܘܕܥܡܗ ܩܪܝܐ ܘܓܒܝܐ ܘܡܗܝܡܢܐ ܀

¹⁴These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

¹⁵ܘܐܡܪ ܠܝ ܡܝܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܕܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܝܬܒܐ ܙܢܝܬܐ ܥܡܡܐ ܘܟܢܫܐ ܘܐܡܘܬܐ ܘܠܫܢܐ ܐܝܬܝܗܘܢ ܀

¹⁵And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

¹⁶ܘܥܤܪ ܩܪܢܬܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܠܚܝܘܬܐ ܗܠܝܢ ܢܤܢܝܢ ܠܙܢܝܬܐ ܘܚܪܒܬܐ ܘܥܪܛܠܝܬܐ ܢܥܒܕܘܢܗ ܘܒܤܪܗ ܢܐܟܠܘܢ ܘܢܘܩܕܘܢܗ ܒܢܘܪܐ ܀

¹⁶And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

¹⁷ܐܠܗܐ ܓܝܪ ܝܗܒ ܒܠܒܘܬܗܘܢ ܕܢܥܒܕܘܢ ܨܒܝܢܗ ܘܢܥܒܕܘܢ ܨܒܝܢܗܘܢ ܚܕ ܘܢܬܠܘܢ ܡܠܟܘܬܗܘܢ ܠܚܝܘܬܐ ܗܝ ܥܕܡܐ ܕܢܫܬܡܠܝܢ ܡܠܘܗܝ ܕܐܠܗܐ ܀

¹⁷For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.

¹⁸ܘܐܢܬܬܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܚܙܝܬ ܡܕܝܢܬܐ ܪܒܬܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܐܝܬ ܠܗ ܡܠܟܘܬܐ ܥܠ ܡܠܟܝܗ ܕܐܪܥܐ ܀

¹⁸And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
