1 A i kite ano ahau, na, ko te Reme e tu ana i Maunga Hiona, kotahi rau e wha tekau ma wha mano ona hoa, ko tona ingoa, me te ingoa o tona Matua, he mea tuhituhi ki o ratou rae.

2 Na ka rongo ahau i te reo i te rangi, tona rite kei te haruru o nga wai maha, kei te haruru ano o te whatitiri nui: a ko te reo i rongo ai ahau, ano ko te reo o nga kaiwhakatangi hapa e whakatangi ana i a ratou hapa:

3 A ko ta ratou waiata me te mea he waiata hou i mua i te torona, i mua hoki i nga mea ora e wha, i nga kaumatua ano hoki; e kore hoki e taea e tetahi te ako taua waiata, ko nga mano anake kotahi rau e wha tekau ma wha, kua oti nei te hoko i runga i te whenua.

4 Ko te hunga tenei kahore nei i poke i te wahine; he wahine hoki ratou. Ko te hunga tenei e aru ana i te Reme ki nga wahi katoa e haere ai ia. He mea hoko enei i roto i nga tangata, he matamua ki te Atua, ki te Reme hoki.

5 Kahore hoki he tinihanga i mau i o ratou mangai: he kohakore ratou, i mua i te torona a te Atua.

6 I kite ano ahau i tetahi atu anahera e rere ana i waenganui o te rangi, kei a ia te rongopai mau tonu hei kauwhau mana ki te hunga e noho ana i te whenua, ki nga iwi katoa, ki nga hapu, ki nga reo, ki nga huihuinga tangata;

7 A he nui tona reo ki te mea, Kia wehi koutou ki te Atua, hoatu ki a ia he kororia; kua tae mai hoki te haora o tana whakawa: koropiko atu hoki ki a ia, ki te Kaihanga o te rangi, o te whenua, o te moana, o nga puna wai.

8 I aru mai ano tetahi atu anahera, i mea, Kua horo, kua horo a Papurona, te pa nui, i whakainu nei i nga tauiwi katoa ki te waina o te riri o tona moepuku.

9 I aru mai ano te toru o nga anahera i a raua, nui atu tona reo ki te mea mai, Ki te koropiko tetahi ki te kararehe, ki tona whakapakoko hoki, ka tango hoki i te tohu ki tona rae, ki tona ringaringa ranei,

10 E inu ano ia i te waina o te riri o te Atua, e ringihia nei, he mea kahore i whakananua, ki roto ki te kapu o tona riri; e whakamamaetia hoki ia i roto i te kapura, i te whanariki i te aroaro o nga anahera tapu, i te aroaro hoki o te Reme:

11 A kake ana te paoa o to ratou whakamamaetanga ake ake: kahore hoki he okiokinga i te ao, i te po, mo te hunga e koropiko ana ki te kararehe, ki tona whakapakoko hoki, mo te tangata hoki e tango ana i te tohu o tona ingoa.

12 Tenei te manawanui o te hunga tapu, o te hunga e pupuri ana i nga ture a te Atua, i te whakapono hoki o Ihu.

13 A ka rongo ahau i tetahi reo i te rangi e mea ana, Tuhituhia, Ka hari nga tupapaku e mate nei i roto i te Ariki i nga wa i muri nei: ae ra, e ai ta te Wairua, kia okioki ai ratou i a ratou mahi; e aru tahi hoki a ratou mahi i a ratou.

14 A ka kite ano ahau, na, he kapua ma; a i runga i te kapua e noho ana tetahi, tona rite kei te Tama a te tangata, i runga ano i tona mahunga he karaunga koura, i roto i tona ringaringa he toronaihi koi.

15 Na ka puta mai tetahi atu anahera i te whare tapu, he nui tona reo ki te karanga ki tera e noho ra i runga i te kapua, Akina iho tau toronaihi, kotia; kua tae hoki te wa e kokoti ai: kua maroke ke hoki te witi o te ao;

16 Katahi tera e noho ra i runga i te kapua ka aki iho i tana toronaihi ki te whenua, a ka kotia te whenua.

17 A ka puta mai ano he anahera i roto i te whare tapu i te rangi, he toronaihi koi ano hoki tana.

18 Na ka puta mai ano tetahi atu anahera i roto i te aata, kei a ia he mana ki te kapura; he nui tona reo ki te karanga ki tera i te toronaihi koi, i mea ia, Akina iho tau toronaihi koi, tapahia nga tautau waina o te whenua; kua maoa hoki ona karep e.

19 Na akina iho ana tana toronaihi e te anahera ki te whenua, tapahia ana e ia te waina o te whenua, panga ana e ia, ki te takahanga nui o te riri o te Atua.

20 Na ka takahia te takahanga waina i waho o te pa, a puta ake ana he toto i roto i te takahanga, tae noa ake ki nga paraire o nga hoiho, a taea noatia nga paronga kotahi mano e ono rau.

1 And I saw, and lo, a Lamb having stood upon the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty-four thousands, having the name of his Father written upon their foreheads;

2 and I heard a voice out of the heaven, as a voice of many waters, and as a voice of great thunder, and a voice I heard of harpers harping with their harps,

3 and they sing, as it were, a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures, and the elders, and no one was able to learn the song except the hundred forty-four thousands, who have been bought from the earth;

4 these are they who with women were not defiled, for they are virgin; these are they who are following the Lamb whithersoever he may go; these were bought from among men -- a first-fruit to God and to the Lamb --

5 and in their mouth there was not found guile, for unblemished are they before the throne of God.

6 And I saw another messenger flying in mid-heaven, having good news age-during to proclaim to those dwelling upon the earth, and to every nation, and tribe, and tongue, and people,

7 saying in a great voice, `Fear ye God, and give to Him glory, because come did the hour of His judgment, and bow ye before Him who did make the heaven, and the land, and sea, and fountains of waters.`

8 And another messenger did follow, saying, `Fall, fall, did Babylon, the great city, because of the wine of the wrath of her whoredom she hath given to all nations to drink.`

9 And a third messenger did follow them, saying in a great voice, `If any one the beast doth bow before, and his image, and doth receive a mark upon his forehead, or upon his hand,

10 he also shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, that hath been mingled unmixed in the cup of His anger, and he shall be tormented in fire and brimstone before the holy messengers, and before the Lamb,

11 and the smoke of their torment doth go up to ages of ages; and they have no rest day and night, who are bowing before the beast and his image, also if any doth receive the mark of his name.

12 Here is endurance of the saints: here [are] those keeping the commands of God, and the faith of Jesus.`

13 And I heard a voice out of the heaven saying to me, `Write: Happy are the dead who in the Lord are dying from this time!` `Yes, (saith the Spirit,) That they may rest from their labours -- and their works do follow them!`

14 And I saw, and lo, a white cloud, and upon the cloud [one] sitting like to a son of man, having upon his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle;

15 and another messenger did come forth out of the sanctuary crying in a great voice to him who is sitting upon the cloud, `Send forth thy sickle and reap, because come to thee hath the hour of reaping, because ripe hath been the harvest of the earth;`

16 and he who is sitting upon the cloud did put forth his sickle upon the earth, and the earth was reaped.

17 And another messenger did come forth out of the sanctuary that [is] in the heaven, having -- he also -- a sharp sickle,

18 and another messenger did come forth out from the altar, having authority over the fire, and he called with a great cry to him having the sharp sickle, saying, `Send forth thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, because come to perfection have her grapes;`

19 and the messenger did put forth his sickle to the earth, and did gather the vine of the earth, and did cast [it] to the great wine-press of the wrath of God;

20 and trodden was the wine-press outside of the city, and blood did come forth out of the wine-press -- unto the bridles of the horses, a thousand, six hundred furlongs.
