Apocalypsis Ioannis

Apocalypsis, chapter 14, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 14 Vulgate

   1 Et vidi: et ecce Agnus stans supra montem Sion, et cum illo centum quadraginta quattuor milia, habentes nomen eius et nomen Patris eius scriptum in frontibus suis.
   2 Et audivi vocem de caelo tamquam vocem aquarum multarum et tamquam vocem tonitrui magni; et vox, quam audivi, sicut citharoedorum citharizantium in citharis suis.
   3 Et cantant quasi canticum novum ante thronum et ante quattuor animalia et seniores. Et nemo poterat discere canticum, nisi illa centum quadraginta quattuor milia, qui empti sunt de terra.
   4 Hi sunt qui cum mulieribus non sunt coinquinati, virgines enim sunt. Hi qui sequuntur Agnum, quocumque abierit. Hi empti sunt ex hominibus primitiae Deo et Agno;
   5 et in ore ipsorum non est inventum mendacium: sine macula sunt.
   6 Et vidi alterum angelum volantem per medium caelum, habentem evangelium aeternum, ut evangelizaret super sedentes in terra et super omnem gentem et tribum et linguam et populum;
   7 dicens magna voce: "Timete Deum et date illi gloriam, quia venit hora iudicii eius; et adorate eum, qui fecit caelum et terram et mare et fontes aquarum ".
   8 Et alius angelus secutus est dicens: "Cecidit, cecidit Babylon illa magna, quae a vino irae fornicationis suae potionavit omnes gentes!".
   9 Et alius angelus tertius secutus est illos dicens voce magna: "Si quis adoraverit bestiam et imaginem eius et acceperit characterem in fronte sua aut in manu sua,
   10 et hic bibet de vino irae Dei, quod mixtum est mero in calice irae ipsius, et cruciabitur igne et sulphure in conspectu angelorum sanctorum et ante conspectum Agni.
   11 Et fumus tormentorum eorum in saecula saeculorum ascendit, nec habent requiem die ac nocte, qui adoraverunt bestiam et imaginem eius, et si quis acceperit characterem nominis eius".
   12 Hic patientia sanctorum est, qui custodiunt mandata Dei et fidem Iesu.
   13 Et audivi vocem de caelo dicentem: "Scribe: Beati mortui, qui in Domino moriuntur amodo. Etiam, dicit Spiritus, ut requiescant a laboribus suis; opera enim illorum sequuntur illos".
   14 Et vidi: et ecce nubem candidam, et supra nubem sedentem quasi Filium hominis, habentem super caput suum coronam auream et in manu sua falcem acutam.
   15 Et alter angelus exivit de templo clamans voce magna ad sedentem super nubem: "Mitte falcem tuam et mete, quia venit hora, ut metatur, quoniam aruit messis terrae".
   16 Et misit, qui sedebat supra nubem, falcem suam in terram, et messa est terra.
   17 Et alius angelus exivit de templo, quod est in caelo, habens et ipse falcem acutam.
   18 Et alius angelus de altari, habens potestatem supra ignem, et clamavit voce magna ad eum, qui habebat falcem acutam, dicens: "Mitte falcem tuam acutam et vindemia botros vineae terrae, quoniam maturae sunt uvae eius".
   19 Et misit angelus falcem suam in terram et vindemiavit vineam terrae et misit in lacum irae Dei magnum.
   20 Et calcatus est lacus extra civitatem, et exivit sanguis de lacu usque ad frenos equorum per stadia mille sescenta.

King James Version

   1 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
   2 And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
   3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
   4 These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever he goeth. These were redeemed from among men, being the firstfruits unto God and to the Lamb.
   5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
   6 And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
   7 Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
   8 And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
   9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
   10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
   11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name.
   12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
   13 And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
   14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
   15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
   16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
   17 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
   18 And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
   19 And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
   20 And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
