Theologa | Revelation 15:15:3

Και ειδον αλλο σημειον εν τω ουρανω μεγα και θαυμαστον αγγελους επτα εχοντας πληγας επτα τας εσχατας οτι εν αυταις ετελεσθη ο θυμος του Θεου

And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having seven plagues, which are the last, for in them is finished the wrath of God.

Και ειδον ως θαλασσαν υαλινην μεμιγμενην πυρι και τους νικωντας εκ του θηριου και εκ της εικονος αυτου και εκ του αριθμου του ονοματος αυτου εστωτας επι την θαλασσαν την υαλινην εχοντας κιθαρας του Θεου

And I saw as it were a sea of glass mingled with fire; and them that come off victorious from the beast, and from his image, and from the number of his name, standing by the sea of glass, having harps of God.

και αδουσιν την ωδην Μωυσεως του δουλου του Θεου και την ωδην του Αρνιου λεγοντες Μεγαλα και θαυμαστα τα εργα σου Κυριε ο Θεος ο Παντοκρατωρ δικαιαι και αληθιναι αι οδοι σου ο Βασιλευς των εθνων

And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, O Lord God, the Almighty; righteous and true are thy ways, thou King of the ages.

τις ου μη φοβηθη Κυριε και δοξασει το ονομα σου οτι μονος οσιος οτι παντα τα εθνη ηξουσιν και προσκυνησουσιν ενωπιον σου οτι τα δικαιωματα σου εφανερωθησαν

Who shall not fear, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for thou only art holy; for all the nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy righteous acts have been made manifest.

Και μετα ταυτα ειδον και ηνοιγη ο ναος της σκηνης του μαρτυριου εν τω ουρανω

And after these things I saw, and the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened:

και εξηλθον οι επτα αγγελοι οι εχοντες τας επτα πληγας εκ του ναου ενδεδυμενοι λινον καθαρον λαμπρον και περιεζωσμενοι περι τα στηθη ζωνας χρυσας

and there came out from the temple the seven angels that had the seven plagues, arrayed with precious stone, pure and bright, and girt about their breasts with golden girdles.

Και εν εκ των τεσσαρων ζωων εδωκεν τοις επτα αγγελοις επτα φιαλας χρυσας γεμουσας του θυμου του Θεου του ζωντος εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων

And one of the four living creatures gave unto the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever.

και εγεμισθη ο ναος καπνου εκ της δοξης του Θεου και εκ της δυναμεως αυτου και ουδεις εδυνατο εισελθειν εις τον ναον αχρι τελεσθωσιν αι επτα πληγαι των επτα αγγελων

And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and none was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels should be finished.

An ancient song and a new one, together

Those who had overcome the beast sing 'the song of Moses... And the song of the Lamb,' explicitly connecting this final act of deliverance back to the original Exodus song of victory. Pairing an ancient historical song with a new one suggests continu...
