RV1909 Reina-Valera 1909

1 And I saw, and behold, the Lamb was standing above mount Zion, and with him were one hundred and forty-four thousand, having his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.

1 Y MIRÉ, y he aquí, el Cordero estaba sobre el monte de Sión, y con él ciento cuarenta y cuatro mil, que tenían el nombre de su Padre escrito en sus frentes.

2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of a great thunder. And the voice that I heard was like that of singers, while playing on their stringed instruments.

2 Y oí una voz del cielo como ruido de muchas aguas, y como sonido de un gran trueno: y oí una voz de tañedores de arpas que tañían con sus arpas:

3 And they were singing what seemed like a new canticle before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. And no one was able to recite the canticle, except those one hundred and forty-four thousand, who were redeemed from the earth.

3 Y cantaban como un cántico nuevo delante del trono, y delante de los cuatro animales, y de los ancianos: y ninguno podía aprender el cántico sino aquellos ciento cuarenta y cuatro mil, los cuales fueron comprados de entre los de la tierra.

4 These are the ones who were not defiled with women, for they are Virgins. These follow the Lamb wherever he will go. These were redeemed from men as the first-fruits for God and for the Lamb.

4 Estos son los que con mujeres no fueron contaminados; porque son vírgenes. Estos, los que siguen al Cordero por donde quiera que fuere. Estos fueron comprados de entre los hombres por primicias para Dios y para el Cordero.

5 And in their mouth, no lie was found, for they are without flaw before the throne of God.

5 Y en sus bocas no ha sido hallado engaño; porque ellos son sin mácula delante del trono de Dios.

6 And I saw another Angel, flying through the midst of heaven, holding the eternal Gospel, so as to evangelize those sitting upon the earth and those of every nation and tribe and language and people,

6 Y vi otro ángel volar por en medio del cielo, que tenía el evangelio eterno para predicarlo á los que moran en la tierra, y á toda nación y tribu y lengua y pueblo,

7 saying with a loud voice: “Fear the Lord, and give honor to him, for the hour of his judgment has arrived. And worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the sources of water.”

7 Diciendo en alta voz: Temed á Dios, y dadle honra; porque la hora de su juicio es venida; y adorad á aquel que ha hecho el cielo y la tierra y el mar y las fuentes de las aguas.

8 And another Angel followed, saying: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, who inebriated all nations with the wine of her wrath and of fornication.”

8 Y otro ángel le siguió, diciendo: Ha caído, ha caído Babilonia, aquella grande ciudad, porque ella ha dado á beber á todas las naciones del vino del furor de su fornicación.

9 And the third Angel followed them, saying with a great voice: “If anyone has worshiped the beast, or his image, or has received his character on his forehead or on his hand,

9 Y el tercer ángel los siguió, diciendo en alta voz: Si alguno adora á la bestia y á su imagen, y toma la señal en su frente, ó en su mano,

10 he shall drink also from the wine of the wrath of God, which has been mixed with strong wine in the cup of his wrath, and he shall be tortured with fire and sulphur in the sight of the holy Angels and before the sight of the Lamb.

10 Este también beberá del vino de la ira de Dios, el cual está echado puro en el cáliz de su ira; y será atormentado con fuego y azufre delante de los santos ángeles, y delante del Cordero:

11 And the smoke of their torments shall ascend forever and ever. And they shall have no rest, day or night, those who have worshiped the beast or his image, or who have received the character of his name.”

11 Y el humo del tormento de ellos sube para siempre jamás. Y los que adoran á la bestia y á su imagen, no tienen reposo día ni noche, ni cualquiera que tomare la señal de su nombre.

12 Here is the patient endurance of the Saints, those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus.

12 Aquí está la paciencia de los santos; aquí [están] los que guardan los mandamientos de Dios, y la fe de Jesús.

13 And I heard a voice from heaven, saying to me: “Write: Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord, now and hereafter, says the Spirit, so that they may find rest from their labors. For their works follow them.”

13 Y oí una voz del cielo que me decía: Escribe: Bienaventurados los muertos que de aquí adelante mueren en el Señor. Sí, dice el Espíritu, que descansarán de sus trabajos; porque sus obras con ellos siguen.

14 And I saw, and behold, a white cloud. And upon the cloud was one sitting, resembling a son of man, having a crown of gold on his head, and a sharp sickle in his hand.

14 Y miré, y he aquí una nube blanca; y sobre la nube uno sentado semejante al Hijo del hombre, que tenía en su cabeza una corona de oro, y en su mano una hoz aguda.

15 And another Angel went forth from the temple, crying out in a great voice to the one sitting upon the cloud: “Send out your sickle and reap! For the hour of reaping has arrived, because the harvest of the earth has ripened.”

15 Y otro ángel salió del templo, clamando en alta voz al que estaba sentado sobre la nube: Mete tu hoz, y siega; porque la hora de segar [te] es venida, porque la mies de la tierra está madura.

16 And the one who was sitting upon the cloud sent out his sickle to the earth, and the earth was reaped.

16 Y el que estaba sentado sobre la nube echó su hoz sobre la tierra, y la tierra fué segada.

17 And another Angel went forth from the temple that is in heaven; he also had a sharp sickle.

17 Y salió otro ángel del templo que está en el cielo, teniendo también una hoz aguda.

18 And another Angel went forth from the altar, who held power over fire. And he cried out in a great voice to him who held the sharp sickle, saying: “Send out your sharp sickle, and harvest the clusters of grapes from the vineyard of the earth, because its grapes have matured.”

18 Y otro ángel salió del altar, el cual tenía poder sobre el fuego, y clamó con gran voz al que tenía la hoz aguda, diciendo: Mete tu hoz aguda, y vendimia los racimos de la tierra; porque están maduras sus uvas.

19 And the Angel sent out his sharp sickle to the earth, and he harvested the vineyard of the earth, and he cast it into the great basin of the wrath of God.

19 Y el ángel echó su hoz aguda en la tierra, y vendimió la viña de la tierra, y echó [la uva] en el grande lagar de la ira de Dios.

20 And the basin was trodden beyond the city, and blood went forth from the basin, even as high as the harnesses of horses, out to one thousand six hundred stadia.

20 Y el lagar fué hollado fuera de la ciudad, y del lagar salió sangre hasta los frenos de los caballos por mil y seiscientos estadios.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

Quotes verse 14:13 Augustine of Hippo, The City of God (Book XX, Chapter 9)
And therefore in another part of this same book we read, "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from henceforth and now, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; for their works do follow them." The Church, then, begins its reign with Christ now in the living and in the dead.
