1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants

ℵ ⟨saints⟩

things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:

1 Apocalypsis Jesu Christi, quam dedit illi Deus palam facere servis suis, quæ oportet fieri cito: et significavit, mittens per angelum suum servo suo Joanni,

2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that

ℵA ⟨what things soever⟩

he saw.

2 qui testimonium perhibuit verbo Dei, et testimonium Jesu Christi, quæcumque vidit.

3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words

ℵ ⟨word⟩

of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.

3 Beatus qui legit, et audit verba prophetiæ hujus, et servat ea, quæ in ea scripta sunt: tempus enim prope est.

4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are

4 ¶ Joannes septem ecclesiis, quæ sunt in Asia. Gratia vobis, et pax ab eo, qui est, et qui erat, et qui venturus est: et a septem spiritibus qui in conspectu throni ejus sunt:

5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved

ℵA ⟨freed⟩

us from our

9 ¶ Ego Joannes frater vester, et particeps in tribulatione, et regno, et patientia in Christo Jesu: fui in insula, quæ appellatur Patmos, propter verbum Dei, et testimonium Jesu:

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

10 fui in spiritu in Dominica die, et audivi post me vocem magnam tamquam tubæ,

11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and,

12 And I turned to see the voice that spake

A ⟨speaketh⟩

12 Et conversus sum ut viderem vocem, quæ loquebatur mecum: et conversus vidi septem candelabra aurea:

13 And in the midst of the seven

like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.

13 et in medio septem candelabrorum aureorum, similem Filio hominis vestitum podere, et præcinctum ad mamillas zona aurea:

14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;

14 caput autem ejus, et capilli erant candidi tamquam lana alba, et tamquam nix, et oculi ejus tamquam flamma ignis:

15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.

15 et pedes ejus similes auricalco, sicut in camino ardenti, et vox illius tamquam vox aquarum multarum:

16 And he had in his right hand

16 et habebat in dextera sua stellas septem: et de ore ejus gladius utraque parte acutus exibat: et facies ejus sicut sol lucet in virtute sua.
