1 Na kua homai ki ahau he kakaho e rite ana ki te tokotoko: a ka mea mai tetahi, E ara, ka whanganga i te whare o te Atua, me te aata, me te hunga e koropiko ana i roto.

2 Me whakarere ia ki waho te marae i te taha ki waho o te whare tapu, kaua tera e whangangatia; kua hoatu hoki ki nga tauiwi: a e takatakahia e ratou te pa tapu, e wha tekau ma rua nga marama.

3 A maku e hoatu he tikanga ki aku kaiwhakaatu tokorua, e poropiti hoki raua, kotahi mano e rua rau e ono tekau nga ra, he taratara ano te kakahu.

4 Ko nga oriwa e rua enei, me nga turanga rama e rua, e tu nei i te aroaro o te Ariki o te whenua.

5 A ki te mea tetahi ki te tukino i a raua, ka puta mai he kapura i o raua mangai, e pau ai o raua hoariri: ki te mea hoki tetahi ki te tukino i a raua, ko te whakamatenga tenei mona.

6 Kei a raua te tikanga mo te kopani i te rangi, kia kaua e ua te ua i nga ra o ta raua poropititanga: kei a raua ano te tikanga mo te whakaputa ke i nga wai hei toto, mo te patu ano i te whenua ki nga patunga katoa, i nga wa e pai ai raua.

7 A, no ka mutu ta raua whakaatu, ka whawhai ki a raua te kararehe e haere ake ana i roto i te poka torere, a e taea raua e ia, e whakamatea raua.

8 Ka takoto ano o raua tinana ki te huarahi o te pa nui, e huaina wairuatia nei ko Horoma, ko Ihipa, ki te wahi hoki i ripekatia ai to raua Ariki.

9 A e toru nga ra me te hawhe e tirohia ai o raua tinana e nga huihuinga tangata, e nga hapu, e nga reo, e nga iwi, e kore ano hoki e tukua o raua tinana kia hoatu ki te urupa.

10 Ka koa hoki ki a raua te hunga e noho ana i te whenua, ka harakoa, ka tapae taonga tetahi ki tetahi; no te mea i whakamamae enei poropiti tokorua i te hunga e noho ana ki te whenua.

11 A muri iho i aua ra e toru me te hawhe, ka uru te manawa ora ki a raua, he mea na te Atua, a ka tu o raua waewae ki runga; nui atu hoki te wehi i pa ki te hunga e titiro ana ki a raua.

12 A ka rongo raua i te reo nui i te rangi e mea ana ki a raua, Haere ake korua ki konei. Na haere atu ana raua ki te rangi i roto i te kapua; me te matakitaki ano o raua hoariri ki a raua.

13 I taua haora ano ka puta he ru nui, ka hinga te wahi whakatekau o te pa; ko nga tangata i mate i taua ru e whitu mano: a ka wehi era atu, a hoatu ana e ratou he kororia ki te Atua o te rangi.

14 Kua pahemo te rua o nga Aue; na ka hohoro te toru o nga Aue te haere mai.

15 Na ka whakatangi te whitu o nga anahera; a ka whai i muri nga reo nunui i te rangi, e mea ana, kua riro te rangatiratanga o te ao hei rangatiratanga mo to tatou Ariki, mo tana karaiti hoki; ko ia ano hei kingi ake ake.

16 Na, ko nga kaumatua e rua tekau ma wha, e noho ra i te aroaro o te Atua i runga i o ratou torona, ka takoto ratou, ko o ratou kanohi ki raro, ka koropiko ki te Atua,

17 Ka mea, Ko ta matou whakawhetai tenei ki a koe, e te Ariki, e te Atua Kaha Rawa; tenei koe inaianei, a i mua ano koe, a kei te haere mai ano; no te mea kua riro i a koe tou mana nui, kua kingi ano koe.

18 I riri hoki nga iwi, a kua tae mai tou riri me te wa mo nga tupapaku e whakawakia ai, te wa hoki e hoatu ai e koe he utu ki au pononga, ki nga poropiti, ki te hunga tapu ano hoki, ki te hunga ano e wehi ana i tou ingoa, ki te hunga nonohi, ki te hunga nunui; e whakangaromia ai hoki te hunga e whakangaro nei i te whenua.

19 A i whakapuaretia ano te whare o te Atua i roto i te rangi, a ka kitea te aaka o tana kawenata i roto i tona whare: na, he uira tera, me nga reo, me nga whatitiri, me te ru, me te whatu nui.

1 And there was given to me a reed like to a rod, and the messenger stood, saying, `Rise, and measure the sanctuary of God, and the altar, and those worshipping in it;

2 and the court that is without the sanctuary leave out, and thou mayest not measure it, because it was given to the nations, and the holy city they shall tread down forty-two months;

3 and I will give to My two witnesses, and they shall prophesy days, a thousand, two hundred, sixty, arrayed with sackcloth;

4 these are the two olive [trees], and the two lamp-stands that before the God of the earth do stand;

5 and if any one may will to injure them, fire doth proceed out of their mouth, and doth devour their enemies, and if any one may will to injure them, thus it behoveth him to be killed.

6 These have authority to shut the heaven, that it may not rain rain in the days of their prophecy, and authority they have over the waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the land with every plague, as often as they may will.

7 `And when they may finish their testimony, the beast that is coming up out of the abyss shall make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them,

8 and their dead bodies [are] upon the broad-place of the great city (that is called spiritually Sodom, and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified,)

9 and they shall behold -- they of the peoples, and tribes, and tongues, and nations -- their dead bodies three days and a half, and their dead bodies they shall not suffer to be put into tombs,

10 and those dwelling upon the land shall rejoice over them, and shall make merry, and gifts they shall send to one another, because these -- the two prophets -- did torment those dwelling upon the land.`

11 And after the three days and a half, a spirit of life from God did enter into them, and they stood upon their feet, and great fear fell upon those beholding them,

12 and they heard a great voice out of the heaven saying to them, `Come up hither;` and they went up to the heaven in the cloud, and their enemies beheld them;

13 and in that hour came a great earthquake, and the tenth of the city did fall, and killed in the earthquake were names of men -- seven thousands, and the rest became affrighted, and they gave glory to the God of the heaven.

14 The second wo did go forth, lo, the third wo doth come quickly.

15 And the seventh messenger did sound, and there came great voices in the heaven, saying, `The kingdoms of the world did become [those] of our Lord and of His Christ, and he shall reign to the ages of the ages!`

16 and the twenty and four elders, who before God are sitting upon their thrones, did fall upon their faces, and did bow before God,

17 saying, `We give thanks to Thee, O Lord God, the Almighty, who art, and who wast, and who art coming, because Thou hast taken Thy great power and didst reign;

18 and the nations were angry, and Thine anger did come, and the time of the dead, to be judged, and to give the reward to Thy servants, to the prophets, and to the saints, and to those fearing Thy name, to the small and to the great, and to destroy those who are destroying the land.`

19 And opened was the sanctuary of God in the heaven, and there was seen the ark of His covenant in His sanctuary, and there did come lightnings, and voices, and thunders, and an earthquake, and great hail.
