1Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.
1ثم وقفت على رمل البحر. فرأيت وحشا طالعا من البحر له سبعة رؤوس وعشرة قرون وعلى قرونه عشرة تيجان وعلى رؤوسه اسم تجديف.
2The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
2والوحش الذي رأيته كان شبه نمر وقوائمه كقوائم دب وفمه كفم اسد واعطاه التنين قدرته وعرشه وسلطانا عظيما.
3One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.
3ورأيت واحدا من رؤوسه كانه مذبوح للموت وجرحه المميت قد شفي وتعجبت كل الارض وراء الوحش
4They worshiped the dragon, because he gave his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
4وسجدوا للتنين الذي اعطى السلطان للوحش وسجدوا للوحش قائلين من هو مثل الوحش. من يستطيع ان يحاربه.
5A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.
5وأعطي فما يتكلم بعظائم وتجاديف وأعطي سلطانا ان يفعل اثنين واربعين شهرا.
6He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his dwelling, those who dwell in heaven.
6ففتح فمه بالتجديف على الله ليجدف على اسمه وعلى مسكنه وعلى الساكنين في السماء.
7It was given to him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.
7وأعطي ان يصنع حربا مع القديسين ويغلبهم وأعطي سلطانا على كل قبيلة ولسان وامّة.
8All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
8فسيسجد له جميع الساكنين على الارض الذين ليست اسماؤهم مكتوبة منذ تأسيس العالم في سفر حياة الخروف الذي ذبح.
9If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
9من له اذن فليسمع.
10If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. TR reads “If anyone leads into captivity, into captivity he goes. If anyone will kill with the sword, he must be killed with a sword.” instead of “If anyone has captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is with the sword, he must be killed.” Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
10ان كان احد يجمع سبيا فالى السبي يذهب. وان كان احد يقتل بالسيف فينبغي ان يقتل بالسيف. هنا صبر القديسين وايمانهم
11I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon.
11ثم رأيت وحشا آخر طالعا من الارض وكان له قرنان شبه خروف وكان يتكلم كتنين.
12He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
12ويعمل بكل سلطان الوحش الاول امامه ويجعل الارض والساكنين فيها يسجدون للوحش الاول الذي شفي جرحه المميت.
13He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.
13ويصنع آيات عظيمة حتى انه يجعل نارا تنزل من السماء على الارض قدام الناس.
14He deceives my own NU omits “my own” people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast; saying to those who dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.
14ويضل الساكنين على الارض بالآيات التي أعطي ان يصنعها امام الوحش قائلا للساكنين على الارض ان يصنعوا صورة للوحش الذي كان به جرح السيف وعاش.
15It was given to him to give breath to it, to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.
15وأعطي ان يعطي روحا لصورة الوحش حتى تتكلم صورة الوحش ويجعل جميع الذين لا يسجدون لصورة الوحش يقتلون.
16He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands, or on their foreheads;
16ويجعل الجميع الصغار والكبار والاغنياء والفقراء والاحرار والعبيد تصنع لهم سمة على يدهم اليمنى او على جبهتهم
17and that no one would be able to buy or to sell, unless he has that mark, the name of the beast or the number of his name.
17وان لا يقدر احد ان يشتري او يبيع الا من له السمة او اسم الوحش او عدد اسمه.
18Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred sixty-six.
18هنا الحكمة. من له فهم فليحسب عدد الوحش فانه عدد انسان. وعدده ست مئة وستة وستون
