Revelation 11

1 Then I was given a measuring rod like a staff and was told, “Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, and count the number of worshipers there.

1 有一根苇子赐给我，当作量度的杖；且有话说：「起来！将 神的殿和祭坛，并在殿中礼拜的人都量一量。

2 But exclude the courtyard outside the temple. Do not measure it, because it has been given over to the nations, and they will trample the holy city for 42 months.

2 只是殿外的院子要留下不用量，因为这是给了外邦人的；他们要践踏圣城四十二个月。

3 And I will empower my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, clothed in sackcloth.”

3 我要使我那两个见证人，穿着毛衣，传道一千二百六十天。」

4 These witnesses are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.

4 他们就是那两棵橄榄树，两个灯台，立在世界之主面前的。

5 If anyone wants to harm them, fire proceeds from their mouths and devours their enemies. In this way, anyone who wants to harm them must be killed.

5 若有人想要害他们，就有火从他们口中出来，烧灭仇敌。凡想要害他们的都必这样被杀。

6 These witnesses have power to shut the sky so that no rain will fall during the days of their prophecy, and power to turn the waters into blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they wish.

6 这二人有权柄，在他们传道的日子叫天闭塞不下雨；又有权柄叫水变为血，并且能随时随意用各样的灾殃攻击世界。

7 When the two witnesses have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up from the Abyss will wage war with them, and will overpower and kill them.

7 他们作完见证的时候，那从无底坑里上来的兽必与他们交战，并且得胜，把他们杀了。

8 Their bodies will lie in the street of the great city—figuratively called Sodom and Egypt—where their Lord was also crucified.

8 他们的尸首就倒在大城里的街上；这城按着灵意叫所多玛，又叫埃及，就是他们的主钉十字架之处。

9 For three and a half days all peoples and tribes and tongues and nations will view their bodies and will not permit them to be laid in a tomb.

9 从各民、各族、各方、各国中，有人观看他们的尸首三天半，又不许把尸首放在坟墓里。

10 And those who dwell on the earth will gloat over them and celebrate and send one another gifts, because these two prophets had tormented them.

10 住在地上的人就为他们欢喜快乐，互相馈送礼物，因这两位先知曾叫住在地上的人受痛苦。

11 But after the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered the two witnesses, and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell upon those who saw them.

11 过了这三天半，有生气从 神那里进入他们里面，他们就站起来；看见他们的人甚是害怕。

12 And the witnesses heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Come up here.” And they went up to heaven in a cloud as their enemies watched them.

12 两位先知听见有大声音从天上来，对他们说：「上到这里来。」他们就驾着云上了天，他们的仇敌也看见了。

13 And in that hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand were killed in the quake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

13 正在那时候，地大震动，城就倒塌了十分之一，因地震而死的有七千人；其余的都恐惧，归荣耀给天上的 神。

14 The second woe has passed. Behold, the third woe is coming shortly.

14 第二样灾祸过去，第三样灾祸快到了。

15 Then the seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and loud voices called out in heaven: “The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ, and He will reign forever and ever.”

15 第七位天使吹号，天上就有大声音说： 世上的国成了我主和主基督的国； 他要作王，直到永永远远。

16 And the twenty-four elders who sit on their thrones before God fell on their faces and worshiped God,

16 在 神面前，坐在自己位上的二十四位长老，就面伏于地，敬拜 神，

17 saying: “We give thanks to You, O Lord God Almighty, the One who is and who was, because You have taken Your great power and have begun to reign.

17 说： 昔在、今在的主 神— 全能者啊，我们感谢你！ 因你执掌大权作王了。

18 The nations were enraged, and Your wrath has come. The time has come to judge the dead and to reward Your servants the prophets, as well as the saints and those who fear Your name, both small and great—and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”

18 外邦发怒，你的忿怒也临到了； 审判死人的时候也到了。 你的仆人众先知和众圣徒， 凡敬畏你名的人， 连大带小得赏赐的时候也到了。 你败坏那些败坏世界之人的时候也就到了。

19 Then the temple of God in heaven was opened, and the ark of His covenant appeared in His temple. And there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, an earthquake, and a great hailstorm.

19 当时， 神天上的殿开了，在他殿中现出他的约柜。随后有闪电、声音、雷轰、地震、大雹。
