|
- One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, "Come here. I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters,
- with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality, and those who dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her sexual immorality."
- He carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored animal, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.
- The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of the sexual immorality of the earth.
- And on her forehead a name was written, "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH."
- I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. When I saw her, I wondered with great amazement.
- The angel said to me, "Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.
- The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss and to go into destruction. Those who dwell on the earth and whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see that the beast was, and is not, and shall be present.
- Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.
- They are seven kings. Five have fallen, the one is, the other has not yet come. When he comes, he must continue a little while.
- The beast that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goes to destruction.
- The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority as kings, with the beast, for one hour.
- These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
- These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings. They also will overcome who are with him, called and chosen and faithful."
- He said to me, "The waters which you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.
- The ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the prostitute, and will make her desolate, and will make her naked, and will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire.
- For God has put in their hearts to do what he has in mind, and to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be accomplished.
- The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth."

ויבא אחד מן שבעה המלאכים הנשאים שבע הקערות וידבר אלי לאמר בא ואראך את משפט הזונה הגדולה הישבת על מים רבים׃
אשר זנו אתה מלכי האדמה וישכרו שכני תבל מיין תזנותה׃
ויוליכני ברוח המדברה וארא והנה אשה ישבת על חיה אדמה כתולע מלאת שמות גדופים ולה שבעה ראשים ועשר קרנים׃
והאשה לבושה ארגמן ושני והיא מכללה בזהב ואבן יקרה ופנינים ובידה כוס זהב מלאה תועבות וטמאת תזנותה׃
ועל מצחה כתוב שם סוד בבל הגדולה אם הזנות ותועבות האדמה׃
וארא את האשה שכורה מדם הקדשים ומדם עדי ישוע ואשתומם על המראה שמה גדולה׃
ויאמר אלי המלאך למה זה השתוממת אני אמר לך את סוד האשה והחיה הנשאת אתה בעלת שבעת הראשים ועשרת הקרנים׃
החיה אשר ראיתה היתה ואיננה ועתידה לעלות מן התהום וללכת לאבדון וישבי הארץ אשר שמם איננו נכתב בספר החיים מיום הוסד תבל ישתוממו בראתם את החיה אשר היתה ואיננה ותבוא׃
בזה להבין לאשר לו חכמה שבעת הראשים שבעת הרים המה אשר האשה ישבת עליהם׃
ושבעה מלכים המה חמשה מהם נפלו והאחד ישנו והאחר עוד לא בא והיה כי יבוא עמד יעמד לעת מעט׃
והחיה אשר היתה ואיננה הוא השמיני והוא מן השבעה וילך לאבדון׃
ועשר הקרנים אשר ראית עשרה מלכים הם אשר לא קבלו מלכות עד הנה רק לשעה אחת ממשלה כמלכים יקבלו עם החיה׃
ולאלה עצה אחת ואת כחם ואת ממשלתם יתנו לחיה׃
המה ילחמו בשה והשה יכול יוכל להם כי הוא אדני האדנים ומלך המלכים ועמו הקרואים והבחירים והנאמנים׃
ויאמר אלי המים ההם אשר ראית אשר הזונה ישבת עליהם עמים והמנים המה וגוים ולשנות׃
ועשר הקרנים אשר ראית והחיה המה ישנאו את הזונה ועשוה גלמודה וערמה ואכלו את בשרה ואתה ישרפו באש׃
כי האלהים נתן בלבם לעשות את עצתו ולעשות עצה אחת ולתת את ממשלתם לחיה עד כי ישלמו דברי האלהים׃
והאשה אשר ראית היא העיר הגדולה אשר היא נברת ממלכות הארץ׃

| Revelation 17 Text (Latin)
|
- Et venit unus de septem angelis, qui habebant septem phialas, et locutus est mecum, dicens : Veni, ostendam tibi damnationem meretricis magnæ, quæ sedet super aquas multas,
- cum qua fornicati sunt reges terræ, et inebriati sunt qui inhabitant terram de vino prostitutionis ejus.
- Et abstulit me in spiritu in desertum. Et vidi mulierem sedentem super bestiam coccineam, plenam nominibus blasphemiæ, habentem capita septem, et cornua decem.
- Et mulier erat circumdata purpura, et coccino, et inaurata auro, et lapide pretioso, et margaritis, habens poculum aureum in manu sua, plenum abominatione, et immunditia fornicationis ejus.
- Et in fronte ejus nomen scriptum : Mysterium : Babylon magna, mater fornicationum, et abominationum terræ.
- Et vidi mulierem ebriam de sanguine sanctorum, et de sanguine martyrum Jesu. Et miratus sum cum vidissem illam admiratione magna.
- Et dixit mihi angelus : Quare miraris ? ego dicam tibi sacramentum mulieris, et bestiæ, quæ portat eam, quæ habet capita septem, et cornua decem.
- Bestia, quam vidisti, fuit, et non est, et ascensura est de abysso, et in interitum ibit : et mirabuntur inhabitantes terram (quorum non sunt scripta nomina in libro vitæ a constitutione mundi) videntes bestiam, quæ erat, et non est.
- Et hic est sensus, qui habet sapientiam. Septem capita, septem montes sunt, super quos mulier sedet, et reges septem sunt.
- Quinque ceciderunt, unus est, et alius nondum venit : et cum venerit, oportet illum breve tempus manere.
- Et bestia, quæ erat, et non est : et ipsa octava est : et de septem est, et in interitum vadit.
- Et decem cornua, quæ vidisti, decem reges sunt : qui regnum nondum acceperunt, sed potestatem tamquam reges una hora accipient post bestiam.
- Hi unum consilium habent, et virtutem, et potestatem suam bestiæ tradent.
- Hi cum Agno pugnabunt, et Agnus vincet illos : quoniam Dominus dominorum est, et Rex regum, et qui cum illo sunt, vocati, electi, et fideles.
- Et dixit mihi : Aquæ, quas vidisti ubi meretrix sedet, populi sunt, et gentes, et linguæ.
- Et decem cornua, quæ vidisti in bestia : hi odient fornicariam, et desolatam facient illam, et nudam, et carnes ejus manducabunt, et ipsam igni concremabunt.
- Deus enim dedit in corda eorum ut faciant quod placitum est illi : ut dent regnum suum bestiæ donec consummentur verba Dei.
- Et mulier, quam vidisti, est civitas magna, quæ habet regnum super reges terræ.

| Revelation 17 Text (KJV)
|
- And 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:
- With 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.
- So 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.
- And 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:
- And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
- And 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.
- And 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.
- The 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.
- And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
- And 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.
- And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
- And 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.
- These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
- These 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.
- And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
- And 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.
- For 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.
- And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
