Revelation 13

1 Then I saw a beast with ten horns and seven heads rising out of the sea. There were ten royal crowns on its horns and blasphemous names on its heads.

1 ثُمَّ وَقَفْتُ عَلَى رَمْلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، فَرَأَيْتُ وَحْشًا طَالِعًا مِنَ ٱلْبَحْرِ لَهُ سَبْعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ وَعَشَرَةُ قُرُونٍ، وَعَلَى قُرُونِهِ عَشَرَةُ تِيجَانٍ، وَعَلَى رُؤُوسِهِ ٱسْمُ تَجْدِيفٍ.

2 The beast I saw was like a leopard, with the feet of a bear and the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority.

2 وَٱلْوَحْشُ ٱلَّذِي رَأَيْتُهُ كَانَ شِبْهَ نَمِرٍ، وَقَوَائِمُهُ كَقَوَائِمِ دُبٍّ، وَفَمُهُ كَفَمِ أَسَدٍ. وَأَعْطَاهُ ٱلتِّنِّينُ قُدْرَتَهُ وَعَرْشَهُ وَسُلْطَانًا عَظِيمًا.

3 One of the heads of the beast appeared to have been mortally wounded. But the mortal wound was healed, and the whole world marveled and followed the beast.

3 وَرَأَيْتُ وَاحِدًا مِنْ رُؤُوسِهِ كَأَنَّهُ مَذْبُوحٌ لِلْمَوْتِ، وَجُرْحُهُ ٱلْمُمِيتُ قَدْ شُفِيَ. وَتَعَجَّبَتْ كُلُّ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَرَاءَ ٱلْوَحْشِ،

4 They worshiped the dragon who had given authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast, and who can wage war against it?”

4 وَسَجَدُوا لِلتِّنِّينِ ٱلَّذِي أَعْطَى ٱلسُّلْطَانَ لِلْوَحْشِ، وَسَجَدُوا لِلْوَحْشِ قَائِلِينَ: «مَنْ هُوَ مِثْلُ ٱلْوَحْشِ؟ مَنْ يَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ يُحَارِبَهُ؟».

5 The beast was given a mouth to speak arrogant and blasphemous words, and authority to act for 42 months.

5 وَأُعْطِيَ فَمًا يَتَكَلَّمُ بِعَظَائِمَ وَتَجَادِيفَ، وَأُعْطِيَ سُلْطَانًا أَنْ يَفْعَلَ ٱثْنَيْنِ وَأَرْبَعِينَ شَهْرًا.

6 And the beast opened its mouth to speak blasphemies against God and to slander His name and His tabernacle—those who dwell in heaven.

6 فَفَتَحَ فَمَهُ بِٱلتَّجْدِيفِ عَلَى ٱللهِ، لِيُجَدِّفَ عَلَى ٱسْمِهِ، وَعَلَى مَسْكَنِهِ، وَعَلَى ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ.

7 Then the beast was permitted to wage war against the saints and to conquer them, and it was given authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.

7 وَأُعْطِيَ أَنْ يَصْنَعَ حَرْبًا مَعَ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ وَيَغْلِبَهُمْ، وَأُعْطِيَ سُلْطَانًا عَلَى كُلِّ قَبِيلَةٍ وَلِسَانٍ وَأُمَّةٍ.

8 And all who dwell on the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written from the foundation of the world in the Book of Life belonging to the Lamb who was slain.

8 فَسَيَسْجُدُ لَهُ جَمِيعُ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، ٱلَّذِينَ لَيْسَتْ أَسْمَاؤُهُمْ مَكْتُوبَةً مُنْذُ تَأْسِيسِ ٱلْعَالَمِ فِي سِفْرِ حَيَاةِ ٱلْخَرُوفِ ٱلَّذِي ذُبِحَ.

9 He who has an ear, let him hear:

9 مَنْ لَهُ أُذُنٌ فَلْيَسْمَعْ!

10 “If anyone is destined for captivity, into captivity he will go; if anyone is to die by the sword, by the sword he must be killed.” Here is a call for the perseverance and faith of the saints.

10 إِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَجْمَعُ سَبْيًا، فَإِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ يَذْهَبُ. وَإِنْ كَانَ أَحَدٌ يَقْتُلُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، فَيَنْبَغِي أَنْ يُقْتَلَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. هُنَا صَبْرُ ٱلْقِدِّيسِينَ وَإِيمَانُهُمْ.

11 Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. This beast had two horns like a lamb, but spoke like a dragon.

11 ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ وَحْشًا آخَرَ طَالِعًا مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَكَانَ لَهُ قَرْنَانِ شِبْهُ خَرُوفٍ، وَكَانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ كَتِنِّينٍ،

12 And this beast exercised all the authority of the first beast and caused the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose mortal wound had been healed.

12 وَيَعْمَلُ بِكُلِّ سُلْطَانِ ٱلْوَحْشِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ أَمَامَهُ، وَيَجْعَلُ ٱلْأَرْضَ وَٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِيهَا يَسْجُدُونَ لِلْوَحْشِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ ٱلَّذِي شُفِيَ جُرْحُهُ ٱلْمُمِيتُ،

13 And the second beast performed great signs, even causing fire from heaven to come down to earth in the presence of the people.

13 وَيَصْنَعُ آيَاتٍ عَظِيمَةً، حَتَّى إِنَّهُ يَجْعَلُ نَارًا تَنْزِلُ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ قُدَّامَ ٱلنَّاسِ،

14 Because of the signs it was given to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived those who dwell on the earth, telling them to make an image to the beast that had been wounded by the sword and yet had lived.

14 وَيُضِلُّ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ بِٱلْآيَاتِ ٱلَّتِي أُعْطِيَ أَنْ يَصْنَعَهَا أَمَامَ ٱلْوَحْشِ، قَائِلًا لِلسَّاكِنِينَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنْ يَصْنَعُوا صُورَةً لِلْوَحْشِ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ بِهِ جُرْحُ ٱلسَّيْفِ وَعَاشَ.

15 The second beast was permitted to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship it to be killed.

15 وَأُعْطِيَ أَنْ يُعْطِيَ رُوحًا لِصُورَةِ ٱلْوَحْشِ، حَتَّى تَتَكَلَّمَ صُورَةُ ٱلْوَحْشِ، وَيَجْعَلَ جَمِيعَ ٱلَّذِينَ لَا يَسْجُدُونَ لِصُورَةِ ٱلْوَحْشِ يُقْتَلُونَ.

16 And the second beast required all people, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their forehead,

16 وَيَجْعَلَ ٱلْجَمِيعَ: ٱلصِّغَارَ وَٱلْكِبَارَ، وَٱلْأَغْنِيَاءَ وَٱلْفُقَرَاءَ، وَٱلْأَحْرَارَ وَٱلْعَبِيدَ، تُصْنَعُ لَهُمْ سِمَةٌ عَلَى يَدِهِمِ ٱلْيُمْنَى أَوْ عَلَى جَبْهَتِهِمْ،

17 so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark—the name of the beast or the number of its name.

17 وَأَنْ لَا يَقْدِرَ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَشْتَرِيَ أَوْ يَبِيعَ، إِلَّا مَنْ لَهُ ٱلسِّمَةُ أَوِ ٱسْمُ ٱلْوَحْشِ أَوْ عَدَدُ ٱسْمِهِ.

18 Here is a call for wisdom: Let the one who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and that number is 666.

18 هُنَا ٱلْحِكْمَةُ! مَنْ لَهُ فَهْمٌ فَلْيَحْسُبْ عَدَدَ ٱلْوَحْشِ، فَإِنَّهُ عَدَدُ إِنْسَانٍ، وَعَدَدُهُ: سِتُّمِئَةٍ وَسِتَّةٌ وَسِتُّونَ.
