1:1

Αποκαλυψις Ιησου Χριστου ην εδωκεν αυτω ο Θεος δειξαι τοις δουλοις αυτου α δει γενεσθαι εν ταχει και εσημανεν αποστειλας δια του αγγελου αυτου τω δουλω αυτου Ιωαννη

The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show unto his servants, even the things which must shortly come to pass: and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John;

1:2

ος εμαρτυρησεν τον λογον του Θεου και την μαρτυριαν Ιησου Χριστου οσα ειδεν

who bare witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, even of all things that he saw.

1:3

Μακαριος ο αναγινωσκων και οι ακουοντες τους λογους της προφητειας και τηρουντες τα εν αυτη γεγραμμενα ο γαρ καιρος εγγυς

Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written therein: for the time is at hand.

1:4

Ιωαννης Ταις επτα εκκλησιαις ταις εν τη Ασια Χαρις υμιν και ειρηνη απο ο ων και ο ην και ο ερχομενος και απο των επτα Πνευματων α ενωπιον του θρονου αυτου

John to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits that are before his throne;

1:5

και απο Ιησου Χριστου ο μαρτυς ο πιστος ο πρωτοτοκος των νεκρων και ο αρχων των βασιλεων της γης Τω αγαπωντι ημας και λυσαντι ημας εκ των αμαρτιων ημων εν τω αιματι αυτου

and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loveth us, and loosed us from our sins by his blood;

1:6

και εποιησεν ημας βασιλειαν ιερεις τω Θεω και Πατρι αυτου αυτω η δοξα και το κρατος εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων αμην

and he made us to be a kingdom, to be priests unto his God and Father; to him be the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

1:7

Ιδου ερχεται μετα των νεφελων και οψεται αυτον πας οφθαλμος και οιτινες αυτον εξεκεντησαν και κοψονται επ αυτον πασαι αι φυλαι της γης ναι αμην

Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they that pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn over him. Even so, Amen.

1:8

Εγω ειμι το Αλφα και το Ω λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος ο ων και ο ην και ο ερχομενος ο Παντοκρατωρ

I am the Alpha and the Omega, saith the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.

1:9

Εγω Ιωαννης ο αδελφος υμων και συνκοινωνος εν τη θλιψει και βασιλεια και υπομονη εν Ιησου εγενομην εν τη νησω τη καλουμενη Πατμω δια τον λογον του Θεου και την μαρτυριαν Ιησου

I John, your brother and partaker with you in the tribulation and kingdom and patience which are in Jesus, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.

1:10

εγενομην εν Πνευματι εν τη κυριακη ημερα και ηκουσα οπισω μου φωνην μεγαλην ως σαλπιγγος

I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet

1:11

λεγουσης Ο βλεπεις γραψον εις βιβλιον και πεμψον ταις επτα εκκλησιαις εις Εφεσον και εις Σμυρναν και εις Περγαμον και εις Θυατειρα και εις Σαρδεις και εις Φιλαδελφειαν και εις Λαοδικειαν

saying, What thou seest, write in a book and send it to the seven churches: unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.

1:12

Και επεστρεψα βλεπειν την φωνην ητις ελαλει μετ εμου και επιστρεψας ειδον επτα λυχνιας χρυσας

And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And having turned I saw seven golden candlesticks;

1:13

και εν μεσω των λυχνιων ομοιον υιον ανθρωπου ενδεδυμενον ποδηρη και περιεζωσμενον προς τοις μαστοις ζωνην χρυσαν

and in the midst of the candlesticks one like unto a son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about at the breasts with a golden girdle.

1:14

η δε κεφαλη αυτου και αι τριχες λευκαι ως εριον λευκον ως χιων και οι οφθαλμοι αυτου ως φλοξ πυρος

And his head and his hair were white as white wool, white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

1:15

και οι ποδες αυτου ομοιοι χαλκολιβανω ως εν καμινω πεπυρωμενης και η φωνη αυτου ως φωνη υδατων πολλων

and his feet like unto burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace; and his voice as the voice of many waters.

1:16

και εχων εν τη δεξια χειρι αυτου αστερας επτα και εκ του στοματος αυτου ρομφαια διστομος οξεια εκπορευομενη και η οψις αυτου ως ο ηλιος φαινει εν τη δυναμει αυτου

And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.

1:17

Και οτε ειδον αυτον επεσα προς τους ποδας αυτου ως νεκρος και εθηκεν την δεξιαν αυτου επ εμε λεγων Μη φοβου εγω ειμι ο πρωτος και ο εσχατος

And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as one dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying, Fear not; I am the first and the last,

¹

1:18

και ο Ζων και εγενομην νεκρος και ιδου ζων ειμι εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων και εχω τας κλεις του θανατου και του αδου

and the Living one; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades.

1:19

Γραψον ουν α ειδες και α εισιν και α μελλει γενεσθαι μετα ταυτα

Write therefore the things which thou sawest, and the things which are, and the things which shall come to pass hereafter;

1:20

το μυστηριον των επτα αστερων ους ειδες επι της δεξιας μου και τας επτα λυχνιας τας χρυσας οι επτα αστερες αγγελοι των επτα εκκλησιων εισιν και αι λυχνιαι αι επτα επτα εκκλησιαι εισιν

the mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks are seven churches.
