New Testament in Greek (UBS.Ed.26) |
|
|
| 21 1 | THEN I SAW a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had vanished, and there was no longer any sea. | The New Heaven and the New Earth Re.21.1-8 | Καὶ εἶδον οὐρανὸν καινὸν καὶ γῆν καινήν· ὁ γὰρ πρῶτος οὐρανὸς καὶ ἡ πρώτη γῆ ἀπῆλθαν, καὶ ἡ θάλασσα οὐκ ἐστιν ἐτι. |
|
| 2 | I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband. | | καὶ τὴν πόλιν τὴν ἀγίαν Ἰερουσαλὴμ καινὴν εἶδον καταβαίνουσαν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ θεοῦ, ἡτοιμασμένην ὡς νύμφην κεκοσμημένην τῷ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς. |
|
| 3 | I heard a loud voice proclaiming from the throne: 'Now at last God has his dwelling among men! He will dwell among them and they shall be his people, and God himself will be with them. Some witnesses read: God-with-them shall himself be their God (see Isaiah 7.14; 8.8). | - and they shall be his people Re.21.3 | Lv.26.11-12 | 2Chr.6.18 | Eze.37.27 | καὶ ἠκουσα φωνῆς μεγάλης ἐκ τοῦ θρόνου λεγούσης, Ἰδοὺ ἡ σκηνὴ τοῦ θεοῦ μετὰ τῶν ἀνθρώπων, καὶ σκηνώσει μετ' αὐτῶν, καὶ αὐτοὶ λαοὶ αὐτοῦ ἔσονται, καὶ αὐτὸς ὁ θεὸς μετ' αὐτῶν ἐσται, αὐτῶν θεός, |
|
| 4 | He will wipe every tear from their eyes; there shall be an end to death, and to mourning and crying and pain; for the old order has passed away!'
| - for the former things have passed away. Re.21.4 | Is.25.8 | καὶ ἐξαλείψει πᾶν δάκρυον ἐκ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν, καὶ ὁ θάνατος οὐκ ἐσται ἐτι, οὐτε πένθος οὐτε κραυγὴ οὐτε πόνος οὐκ ἐσται ἐτι· ὁτι τὰ πρῶτα ἀπῆλθαν. |
|
| 5 | Then he who sat on the throne said, 'Behold! I am making all things new!' (And he said to me, 'Write this down; for these words are trustworthy and true. | | Καὶ εἶπεν ὁ καθήμενος ἐπὶ τῷ θρόνῳ, Ἰδοὺ καινὰ ποιῶ πάντα. καὶ λέγει, Γράψον, ὅτι οὗτοι οἱ λόγοι πιστοὶ καὶ ἀληθινοί εἰσιν. |
|
| 6 | Indeed', he said, 'they are already fulfilled.') 'For I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. A draught from the water-springs of life will be my free gift to the thirsty. | | καὶ εἶπέν μοι, Γέγοναν. ἐγώ εἰμι τὸ Ἀλφα καὶ τὸ Ὦ, ἡ ἀρχὴ καὶ τὸ τέλος. ἐγὼ τῷ διψῶντι δώσω ἐκ τῆς πηγῆς τοῦ ὑδατος τῆς ζωῆς δωρεάν. |
|
| 7 | All this is the victor's heritage; and I will be his God and he shall be my son. | - I will be his God and he shall be my son. Re.21.7 | 2Sm.7.14 | ὁ νικῶν κληρονομήσει ταῦτα, καὶ ἔσομαι αὐτῷ θεὸς καὶ αὐτὸς ἔσται μοι υἱός.. |
|
| 8 | But as for the cowardly, the faithless, and the vile, murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolaters, and liars of every kind, their lot will be the second death, in the lake that burns with sulphurous flames.'
| | τοῖς δὲ δειλοῖς καὶ ἀπίστοις καὶ ἐβδελυγμένοις καὶ φονεῦσιν καὶ πόρνοις καὶ φαρμάκοις καὶ εἰδωλολάτραις καὶ πᾶσιν τοῖς ψευδέσιν τὸ μέρος αὐτῶν ἐν τῇ λίμνῃ τῇ καιομένῃ π υρὶ καὶ θείῳ, ὅ ἐστιν ὁ θάνατος ὁ δεύτερος. |
