1Et ostendit mihi fluvium aquæ vitæ, splendidum tamquam crystallum, procedentem de sede Dei et Agni.
1And he showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2In medio plateæ ejus, et ex utraque parte fluminis, lignum vitæ, afferens fructus duodecim per menses singulos, reddens fructum suum et folia ligni ad sanitatem gentium.
2In the midst of the street thereof, and on both sides of the river, was the tree of life, bearing twelve fruits, yielding its fruits every month, and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3Et omne maledictum non erit amplius: sed sedes Dei et Agni in illa erunt, et servi ejus servient illi.
3And there shall be no curse any more; but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and his servants shall serve him.
4Et videbunt faciem ejus: et nomen ejus in frontibus eorum.
4And they shall see his face: and his name shall be on their foreheads.
5Et nox ultra non erit: et non egebunt lumine lucernæ, neque lumine solis, quoniam Dominus Deus illuminabit illos, et regnabunt in sæcula sæculorum.
5And night shall be no more: and they shall not need the light of the lamp, nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God shall enlighten them, and they shall reign for ever and ever.
6Et dixit mihi: Hæc verba fidelissima sunt, et vera. Et Dominus Deus spirituum prophetarum misit angelum suum ostendere servis suis quæ oportet fieri cito.
6And he said to me: These words are most faithful and true. And the Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to shew his servants the things which must be done shortly.
7Et ecce venio velociter. Beatus, qui custodit verba prophetiæ libri hujus.
7And, Behold I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the words of the prophecy of this book.
8Et ego Joannes, qui audivi, et vidi hæc. Et postquam audissem, et vidissem, cecidi ut adorarem ante pedes angeli, qui mihi hæc ostendebat:
8And I, John, who have heard and seen these things. And after I had heard and seen, I fell down to adore before the feet of the angel, who shewed me these things.
9et dixit mihi: Vide ne feceris: conservus enim tuus sum, et fratrum tuorum prophetarum, et eorum qui servant verba prophetiæ libri hujus: Deum adora.
9And he said to me: See thou do it not: for I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them that keep the words of the prophecy of this book. Adore God.
10Et dicit mihi: Ne signaveris verba prophetiæ libri hujus: tempus enim prope est.
10And he saith to me: Seal not the words of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
11Qui nocet, noceat adhuc: et qui in sordibus est, sordescat adhuc: et qui justus est, justificetur adhuc: et sanctus, sanctificetur adhuc.
11He that hurteth, let him hurt still: and he that is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is just, let him be justified still: and he that is holy, let him be sanctified still.
12Ecce venio cito, et merces mea mecum est, reddere unicuique secundum opera sua.
12Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to render to every man according to his works.
13Ego sum alpha et omega, primus et novissimus, principium et finis.
13I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.
14Beati, qui lavant stolas suas in sanguine Agni: ut sit potestas eorum in ligno vitæ, et per portas intrent in civitatem.
14Blessed are they that wash their robes in the blood of the Lamb: that they may have a right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.
15Foris canes, et venefici, et impudici, et homicidæ, et idolis servientes, et omnis qui amat et facit mendacium.
15Without are dogs, and sorcerers, and unchaste, and murderers, and servers of idols, and every one that loveth and maketh a lie.
16Ego Jesus misi angelum meum testificari vobis hæc in ecclesiis. Ego sum radix, et genus David, stella splendida et matutina.
16I Jesus have sent my angel, to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the root and stock of David, the bright and morning star.
17Et spiritus, et sponsa dicunt: Veni. Et qui audit, dicat: Veni. Et qui sitit, veniat: et qui vult, accipiat aquam vitæ, gratis.
17And the spirit and the bride say: Come. And he that heareth, let him say: Come. And he that thirsteth, let him come: and he that will, let him take the water of life, freely.
18Contestor enim omni audienti verba prophetiæ libri hujus: si quis apposuerit ad hæc, apponet Deus super illum plagas scriptas in libro isto.
18For I testify to every one that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book: If any man shall add to these things, God shall add unto him the plagues written in this book.
19Et si quis diminuerit de verbis libri prophetiæ hujus, auferet Deus partem ejus de libro vitæ, et de civitate sancta, et de his quæ scripta sunt in libro isto:
19And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from these things that are written in this book.
20dicit qui testimonium perhibet istorum. Etiam venio cito: amen. Veni, Domine Jesu.
20He that giveth testimony of these things, saith, Surely I come quickly: Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
21Gratia Domini nostri Jesu Christi cum omnibus vobis. Amen.
21The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
