YLT
Young's Literal Translation
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.
And
there
was given to
me
a reed
like to
a rod,
and the
messenger
stood
, saying,
`Rise,
and measure the sanctuary
of God ,
and the altar, and those
worshipping
in
it;
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 .
and
the court
that
is
without
the sanctuary
leave
out,
and
thou
mayest
not measure it, because it was
given to the nations, and the holy city they
shall
tread
down
forty-two
months ;
And I will empower
my two witnesses, and they will
prophesy for
1,260
days, clothed
in
sackcloth .”
and I will give
to
My two witnesses, and they shall
prophesy days, a
thousand,
two
hundred,
sixty,
arrayed
with
sackcloth ;
These witnesses
are the two olive trees and the two lampstands
that stand
before the Lord
of the earth .
these are the two olive `
trees ',
and the two lamp-stands
that before the God
of the earth do
stand;
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.
and
if any
one
may
will
to injure
them, fire doth
proceed
out
of
their mouth,
and doth
devour
their enemies, and
if
any
one
may
will
to injure
them ,
thus
it
behoveth
him
to
be killed.
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
.
These have authority
to shut the heaven,
that it
may
not
rain rain
in
the days of their prophecy, and authority
they
have
over
the waters to
turn
them
to
blood ,
and to smite
the land
with every plague ,
as often as they may
will
.
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 .
`And
when they
may
finish
their testimony, the beast that is
coming
up out
of
the abyss shall
make
war with them, and overcome
them,
and kill them ,
Their bodies will
lie
in
the street
of the great city —figuratively
called Sodom and Egypt —
where their
Lord was also
crucified .
and
their dead
bodies `are'
upon
the broad-place
of the great city (that
is
called spiritually
Sodom ,
and Egypt ,
where also
our
Lord was crucified ,)
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.
and they
shall
behold
--
they
of
the
peoples ,
and tribes ,
and tongues ,
and nations --
their dead
bodies three
days
and a
half,
and
their
dead
bodies
they
shall
not suffer
to be put
into
tombs,
And those who
dwell
on
the earth
will
gloat
over them, and will
celebrate
and send one another gifts
, because these two prophets had
tormented
them
.
and those dwelling
upon
the land
shall
rejoice
over them, and shall
make
merry,
and gifts
they
shall
send to
one another, because these --
the
two prophets --
did
torment
those
dwelling
upon
the
land
. '
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 .
And
after the three days
and a half, a
spirit
of life from God did
enter
into
them
, and they stood upon
their feet, and great fear fell upon those beholding
them ,
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 .
and they
heard a great
voice out
of
the
heaven saying to
them
, `
Come up hither;'
and they went up to the
heaven in the
cloud ,
and
their enemies beheld
them ;
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.
and in that hour came
a great earthquake, and the
tenth of the city did
fall,
and
killed in the earthquake
were
names
of
men
--
seven
thousands
, and the rest became
affrighted,
and they
gave glory to the God of the
heaven.
The second woe
has
passed.
Behold
, the third woe
is
coming
shortly
.
The second wo
did
go
forth
, lo,
the third wo
doth
come
quickly
.
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.”
And
the seventh messenger
did
sound
, and there
came
great
voices in the
heaven ,
saying,
`
The kingdoms
of the world did
become `those'
of our Lord and of His Christ, and he shall
reign to
the
ages
of
the
ages!'
And the twenty -
four elders who sit
on
their
thrones
before God fell
on
their faces and worshiped
God,
and the twenty and
four elders ,
who before God are
sitting
upon
their thrones,
did
fall
upon
their
faces ,
and did
bow
before
God,
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 .
saying ,
`
We give thanks to Thee
, O Lord God, the Almighty,
who art,
and who wast
, and
who
art
coming,
because Thou
hast
taken Thy
great power and didst
reign ;
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
. ”
and
the nations were angry
, and Thine
anger
did
come ,
and
the time of
the dead ,
to
be
judged,
and to give
the
reward to
Thy
servants ,
to
the prophets, and
to
the saints ,
and to
those fearing
Thy
name, to
the
small and to
the
great ,
and to destroy those who are
destroying
the land
. '
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
, and rumblings
, and peals
of
thunder
, and an earthquake, and a
great hailstorm
.
And
opened
was
the sanctuary
of God in the
heaven, and there
was
seen
the ark of His covenant in His sanctuary,
and there did
come
lightnings
, and voices
, and thunders
, and an earthquake, and great hail
.
