|
|

并那诚实作见证的、从死里首先复活、为世上君王元首的耶稣基督，有恩惠、平安归与你们！他爱我们，用自己的血使我们脱离（有古卷：洗去）罪恶，
|
|

and from Jesus Christ, [who is] the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loveth us, and loosed us from our sins by his blood;
|
|

又使我们成为国民，作他父神的祭司。但愿荣耀、权能归给他，直到永永远远。阿们！

当主日，我被圣灵感动，听见在我后面有大声音如吹号，说：

I was in the Spirit on the Lord`s day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet
|
|
1:11
|
「你所看见的当写在书上，达与以弗所、士每拿、别迦摩、推雅推喇、撒狄、非拉铁非、老底嘉、那七个教会。」

saying, What thou seest, write in a book and send [it] to the seven churches: unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.

1:12
|
我转过身来，要看是谁发声与我说话；既转过来，就看见七个金灯台。
|
|
|
And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And having turned I saw seven golden candlesticks;
|
|
1:13
|
灯台中间有一位好像人子，身穿长衣，直垂到脚，胸间束着金带。
|
|
|
and in the midst of the candlesticks one like unto a son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about at the breasts with a golden girdle.
|
|
1:14
|
他的头与发皆白，如白羊毛，如雪；眼目如同火焰；
|
|
|
And his head and his hair were white as white wool, [white] as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
|
|
1:15
|
脚好像在炉中锻炼光明的铜；声音如同众水的声音。
|
|
|
and his feet like unto burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace; and his voice as the voice of many waters.
|
|
1:16
|
他右手拿着七星，从他口中出来一把两刃的利剑；面貌如同烈日放光。
|
|
|
And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
|
|
1:17
|
我一看见，就仆倒在他脚前，像死了一样。他用右手按着我，说：「不要惧怕！我是首先的，我是末后的，
|
|
|
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as one dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying, Fear not; I am the first and the last,
|
|
1:18
|
又是那存活的；我曾死过，现在又活了，直活到永永远远；并且拿着死亡和阴间的钥匙。
|
|
|
and the Living one; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades.
|
|
1:19
|
所以你要把所看见的，和现在的事，并将来必成的事，都写出来。
|
|
|
Write therefore the things which thou sawest, and the things which are, and the things which shall come to pass hereafter;
|
|
1:20
|
论到你所看见、在我右手中的七星和七个金灯台的奥秘，那七星就是七个教会的使者，七灯台就是七个教会。」
|
|
|
the mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks are seven churches.
