Revelation of John 17

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:

ثُمَّ جَاءَ وَاحِدٌ مِنَ السَّبْعَةِ الْمَلاَئِكَةِ الَّذِينَ مَعَهُمُ السَّبْعَةُ الْجَامَاتُ وَتَكَلَّمَ مَعِي قَائِلاً لِي:«هَلُمَّ فَأُرِيَكَ دَيْنُونَةَ الزَّانِيَةِ الْعَظِيمَةِ الْجَالِسَةِ عَلَى الْمِيَاهِ الْكَثِيرَةِ،

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.

الَّتِي زَنَى مَعَهَا مُلُوكُ الأَرْضِ، وَسَكِرَ سُكَّانُ الأَرْضِ مِنْ خَمْرِ زِنَاهَا».

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.

فَمَضَى بِي بِالرُّوحِ إِلَى بَرِّيَّةٍ، فَرَأَيْتُ امْرَأَةً جَالِسَةً عَلَى وَحْشٍ قِرْمِزِيٍّ مَمْلُوءٍ أَسْمَاءَ تَجْدِيفٍ، لَهُ سَبْعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ وَعَشَرَةُ قُرُونٍ.

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:

وَالْمَرْأَةُ كَانَتْ مُتَسَرْبِلَةً بِأُرْجُوانٍ وَقِرْمِزٍ، وَمُتَحَلِّيَةً بِذَهَبٍ وَحِجَارَةٍ كَرِيمَةٍ وَلُؤْلُؤٍ، وَمَعَهَا كَأْسٌ مِنْ ذَهَبٍ فِي يَدِهَا مَمْلُوَّةٌ رَجَاسَاتٍ وَنَجَاسَاتِ زِنَاهَا،

And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

وَعَلَى جَبْهَتِهَا اسْمٌ مَكْتُوبٌ:«سِرٌّ. بَابِلُ الْعَظِيمَةُ أُمُّ الزَّوَانِي وَرَجَاسَاتِ الأَرْضِ».

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.

وَرَأَيْتُ الْمَرْأَةَ سَكْرَى مِنْ دَمِ الْقِدِّيسِينَ وَمِنْ دَمِ شُهَدَاءِ يَسُوعَ. فَتَعَجَّبْتُ لَمَّا رَأَيْتُهَا تَعَجُّبًا عَظِيمًا!

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.

ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي الْمَلاَكُ:«لِمَاذَا تَعَجَّبْتَ؟ أَنَا أَقُولُ لَكَ سِرَّ الْمَرْأَةِ وَالْوَحْشِ الْحَامِلِ لَهَا، الَّذِي لَهُ السَّبْعَةُ الرُّؤُوسِ وَالْعَشَرَةُ الْقُرُونِ:

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.

الْوَحْشُ الَّذِي رَأَيْتَ، كَانَ وَلَيْسَ الآنَ، وَهُوَ عَتِيدٌ أَنْ يَصْعَدَ مِنَ الْهَاوِيَةِ وَيَمْضِيَ إِلَى الْهَلاَكِ. وَسَيَتَعَجَّبُ السَّاكِنُونَ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، الَّذِينَ لَيْسَتْ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ مَكْتُوبَةً فِي سِفْرِ الْحَيَاةِ مُنْذُ تَأْسِيسِ الْعَالَمِ، حِينَمَا يَرَوْنَ الْوَحْشَ أَنَّهُ كَانَ وَلَيْسَ الآنَ، مَعَ أَنَّهُ كَائِنٌ.

And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.

هُنَا الذِّهْنُ الَّذِي لَهُ حِكْمَةٌ! اَلسَّبْعَةُ الرُّؤُوسِ هِيَ سَبْعَةُ جِبَال عَلَيْهَا الْمَرْأَةُ جَالِسَةً.

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.

وَسَبْعَةُ مُلُوكٍ: خَمْسَةٌ سَقَطُوا، وَوَاحِدٌ مَوْجُودٌ، وَالآخَرُ لَمْ يَأْتِ بَعْدُ. وَمَتَى أَتَى يَنْبَغِي أَنْ يَبْقَى قَلِيلاً.

And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.

وَالْوَحْشُ الَّذِي كَانَ وَلَيْسَ الآنَ فَهُوَ ثَامِنٌ، وَهُوَ مِنَ السَّبْعَةِ، وَيَمْضِي إِلَى الْهَلاَكِ.

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.

وَالْعَشَرَةُ الْقُرُونِ الَّتِي رَأَيْتَ هِيَ عَشَرَةُ مُلُوكٍ لَمْ يَأْخُذُوا مُلْكًا بَعْدُ، لكِنَّهُمْ يَأْخُذُونَ سُلْطَانَهُمْ كَمُلُوكٍ سَاعَةً وَاحِدَةً مَعَ الْوَحْشِ.

These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

هؤُلاَءِ لَهُمْ رَأْيٌ وَاحِدٌ، وَيُعْطُونَ الْوَحْشَ قُدْرَتَهُمْ وَسُلْطَانَهُمْ.

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.

هؤُلاَءِ سَيُحَارِبُونَ الْخَرُوفَ، وَالْخَرُوفُ يَغْلِبُهُمْ، لأَنَّهُ رَبُّ الأَرْبَابِ وَمَلِكُ الْمُلُوكِ، وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُ مَدْعُوُّونَ وَمُخْتَارُونَ وَمُؤْمِنُونَ».

And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.

ثُمَّ قَالَ لِيَ:«الْمِيَاهُ الَّتِي رَأَيْتَ حَيْثُ الزَّانِيَةُ جَالِسَةٌ، هِيَ شُعُوبٌ وَجُمُوعٌ وَأُمَمٌ وَأَلْسِنَةٌ.

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.

وَأَمَّا الْعَشَرَةُ الْقُرُونِ الَّتِي رَأَيْتَ عَلَى الْوَحْشِ فَهؤُلاَءِ سَيُبْغِضُونَ الزَّانِيَةَ، وَسَيَجْعَلُونَهَا خَرِبَةً وَعُرْيَانَةً، وَيَأْكُلُونَ لَحْمَهَا وَيُحْرِقُونَهَا بِالنَّارِ.

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.

لأَنَّ اللهَ وَضَعَ فِي قُلُوبِهِمْ أَنْ يَصْنَعُوا رَأْيَهُ، وَأَنْ يَصْنَعُوا رَأْيًا وَاحِدًا، وَيُعْطُوا الْوَحْشَ مُلْكَهُمْ حَتَّى تُكْمَلَ أَقْوَالُ اللهِ.

And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.

وَالْمَرْأَةُ الَّتِي رَأَيْتَ هِيَ الْمَدِينَةُ الْعَظِيمَةُ الَّتِي لَهَا مُلْكٌ عَلَى مُلُوكِ الأَرْضِ».
