PT1904 Patriarchal Text 1904 (accented, eBible edition)
1 και εδοθη μοι καλαμος ομοιος ραβδω, λεγων· εγειρε και μετρησον τον ναον του θεου και το θυσιαστηριον και τους προσκυνουντας εν αυτω·
1 A reed like a rod was given to me. Someone said, “Rise and measure God’s temple, and the altar, and those who worship in it.
1 Καὶ ἐδόθη μοι κάλαμος ὅμοιος ῥάβδῳ, λέγων· ἔγειρε καὶ μέτρησον τὸν ναὸν τοῦ Θεοῦ καὶ τὸ θυσιαστήριον καὶ τοὺς προσκυνοῦντας ἐν αὐτῷ·
2 και την αυλην την εξωθεν του ναου εκβαλε εξω και μη αυτην μετρησης, οτι εδοθη τοις εθνεσιν, και την πολιν την αγιαν πατησουσιν μηνας τεσσαρακοντα δυο.
2 Leave out the court which is outside of the temple, and don’t measure it, for it has been given to the nations. They will tread the holy city under foot for forty-two months.
2 καὶ τὴν αὐλὴν τὴν ἔξωθεν τοῦ ναοῦ ἔκβαλε ἔξω καὶ μὴ αὐτὴν μετρήσῃς, ὅτι ἐδόθη τοῖς ἔθνεσι, καὶ τὴν πόλιν τὴν ἁγίαν πατήσουσι μῆνας τεσσαράκοντα δύο.
3 και δωσω τοις δυσιν μαρτυσιν μου, και προφητευσουσιν ημερας χιλιας διακοσιας εξηκοντα, περιβεβλημενοι σακκους.
3 I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred sixty days, clothed in sackcloth.”
3 καὶ δώσω τοῖς δυσὶ μάρτυσί μου, καὶ προφητεύσουσιν ἡμέρας χιλίας διακοσίας ἑξήκοντα, περιβεβλημένοι σάκκους.
4 ουτοι εισιν αι δυο ελαιαι και αι δυο λυχνιαι αι ενωπιον του κυριου της γης εστωσαι.
4 These are the two olive trees and the two lamp stands, standing before the Lord of the earth.
4 οὗτοί εἰσιν αἱ δύο ἐλαῖαι καὶ αἱ δύο λυχνίαι αἱ ἐνώπιον τοῦ Κυρίου τῆς γῆς ἑστῶσαι.
5 και ει τις αυτους θελει αδικησαι, πυρ εκπορευεται εκ του στοματος αυτων και κατεσθιει τους εχθρους αυτων· και ει τις θελει αυτους αδικησαι, ουτως δει αυτον αποκτανθηναι.
5 If anyone desires to harm them, fire proceeds out of their mouth and devours their enemies. If anyone desires to harm them, he must be killed in this way.
5 καὶ εἴ τις αὐτοὺς θέλει ἀδικῆσαι, πῦρ ἐκπορεύεται ἐκ τοῦ στόματος αὐτῶν καὶ κατεσθίει τοὺς ἐχθροὺς αὐτῶν· καὶ εἴ τις θέλει αὐτοὺς ἀδικῆσαι, οὕτω δεῖ αὐτὸν ἀποκτανθῆναι.
6 ουτοι εχουσιν εξουσιαν τον ουρανον κλεισαι, ινα μη υετος βρεχη τας ημερας της προφητειας αυτων, και εξουσιαν εχουσιν επι των υδατων στρεφειν αυτα εις αιμα και παταξαι την γην εν παση πληγη, οσακις εαν θελησωσιν.
6 These have the power to shut up the sky, that it may not rain during the days of their prophecy. They have power over the waters, to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire.
6 οὗτοι ἔχουσιν ἐξουσίαν τὸν οὐρανὸν κλεῖσαι, ἵνα μὴ ὑετὸς βρέχῃ τὰς ἡμέρας τῆς προφητείας αὐτῶν, καὶ ἐξουσίαν ἔχουσιν ἐπὶ τῶν ὑδάτων στρέφειν αὐτὰ εἰς αἷμα καὶ πατάξαι τὴν γῆν ἐν πάσῃ πληγῇ, ὁσάκις ἐὰν θελήσωσι.
7 και οταν τελεσωσιν την μαρτυριαν αυτων, το θηριον το αναβαινον εκ της αβυσσου ποιησει μετ αυτων πολεμον και νικησει αυτους και αποκτενει αυτους.
7 When they have finished their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.
7 καὶ ὅταν τελέσωσι τὴν μαρτυρίαν αὐτῶν, τὸ θηρίον τὸ ἀναβαῖνον ἐκ τῆς ἀβύσσου ποιήσει μετ᾽ αὐτῶν πόλεμον καὶ νικήσει αὐτοὺς καὶ ἀποκτενεῖ αὐτούς.
8 και το πτωμα αυτων επι της πλατειας της πολεως της μεγαλης, ητις καλειται πνευματικως σοδομα και αιγυπτος, οπου και ο κυριος αυτων εσταυρωθη.
8 Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.
8 καὶ τὸ πτῶμα αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῆς πλατείας τῆς πόλεως τῆς μεγάλης, ἥτις καλεῖται πνευματικῶς Σόδομα καὶ Αἴγυπτος, ὅπου καὶ ὁ Κύριος αὐτῶν ἐσταυρώθη.
9 και βλεπουσιν εκ των λαων και φυλων και γλωσσων και εθνων το πτωμα αυτων ημερας τρεις και ημισυ, και τα πτωματα αυτων ουκ αφησουσιν τεθηναι εις μνημα.
9 From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations, people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.
9 καὶ βλέπουσιν ἐκ τῶν λαῶν καὶ φυλῶν καὶ γλωσσῶν καὶ ἐθνῶν τὸ πτῶμα αὐτῶν ἡμέρας τρεῖς καὶ ἥμισυ, καὶ τὰ πτώματα αὐτῶν οὐκ ἀφήσουσι τεθῆναι εἰς μνῆμα.
10 και οι κατοικουντες επι της γης χαιρουσιν επ αυτοις, και ευφρανθησονται και δωρα πεμψουσιν αλληλοις, οτι ουτοι οι δυο προφηται εβασανισαν τους κατοικουντας επι της γης.
10 Those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them, and they will be glad. They will give gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth.
10 καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς χαίρουσιν ἐπ᾽ αὐτοῖς, καὶ εὐφρανθήσονται καὶ δῶρα πέμψουσιν ἀλλήλοις, ὅτι οὗτοι οἱ δύο προφῆται ἐβασάνισαν τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
11 και μετα τας τρεις ημερας και ημισυ, πνευμα ζωης εκ του θεου εισηλθεν εις αυτους, και εστησαν επι τους ποδας αυτων, και φοβος μεγας επεπεσεν επι τους θεωρουντας αυτους.
11 After the three and a half days, the breath of life from God entered into them, and they stood on their feet. Great fear fell on those who saw them.
11 καὶ μετὰ τὰς τρεῖς ἡμέρας καὶ ἥμισυ, πνεῦμα ζωῆς ἐκ τοῦ Θεοῦ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς αὐτούς, καὶ ἔστησαν ἐπὶ τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν, καὶ φόβος μέγας ἐπέπεσεν ἐπὶ τοὺς θεωροῦντας αὐτούς.
12 και ηκουσα φωνην μεγαλην εκ του ουρανου λεγουσαν αυτοις· αναβητε ωδε. και ανεβησαν εις τον ουρανον εν τη νεφελη, και εθεωρησαν αυτους οι εχθροι αυτων.
12 I heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here!” They went up into heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them.
12 καὶ ἤκουσα φωνὴν μεγάλην ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ λέγουσαν αὐτοῖς· ἀνάβητε ὧδε. καὶ ἀνέβησαν εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν ἐν τῇ νεφέλῃ, καὶ ἐθεώρησαν αὐτοὺς οἱ ἐχθροὶ αὐτῶν.
13 και εν εκεινη τη ημερα εγενετο σεισμος μεγας, και το δεκατον της πολεως επεσεν, και απεκτανθησαν εν τω σεισμω ονοματα ανθρωπων χιλιαδες επτα, και οι λοιποι εμφοβοι εγενοντο και εδωκαν δοξαν τω θεω του ουρανου.
13 In that day there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.
13 Καὶ ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐγένετο σεισμὸς μέγας, καὶ τὸ δέκατον τῆς πόλεως ἔπεσε, καὶ ἀπεκτάνθησαν ἐν τῷ σεισμῷ ὀνόματα ἀνθρώπων χιλιάδες ἑπτά, καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ ἔμφοβοι ἐγένοντο καὶ ἔδωκαν δόξαν τῷ Θεῷ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ.
14 η ουαι η δευτερα απηλθεν· η ουαι η τριτη ιδου ερχεται ταχυ.
14 The second woe is past. Behold, the third woe comes quickly.
14 Ἡ οὐαὶ ἡ δευτέρα ἀπῆλθεν· ἡ οὐαὶ ἡ τρίτη ἰδοὺ ἔρχεται ταχύ.
15 και ο εβδομος αγγελος εσαλπισεν· και εγενοντο φωναι μεγαλαι εν τω ουρανω λεγουσαι· εγενετο η βασιλεια του κοσμου του κυριου ημων και του χριστου αυτου, και βασιλευσει εις τους αιωνας των αιωνων.
15 The seventh angel sounded, and great voices in heaven followed, saying, “The kingdom of the world has become the Kingdom of our Lord and of his Christ. He will reign forever and ever!”
15 Καὶ ὁ ἕβδομος ἄγγελος ἐσάλπισε· καὶ ἐγένοντο φωναὶ μεγάλαι ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ λέγουσαι· ἐγένετο ἡ βασιλεία τοῦ κόσμου τοῦ Κυρίου ἡμῶν καὶ τοῦ Χριστοῦ αὐτοῦ, καὶ βασιλεύσει εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.
16 και οι εικοσι τεσσαρες πρεσβυτεροι οι ενωπιον [του θρονου] του θεου, οι καθηνται επι τους θρονους αυτων, επεσαν επι τα προσωπα αυτων και προσεκυνησαν τω θεω
16 The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God’s throne, fell on their faces and worshiped God,
16 καὶ οἱ εἴκοσι τέσσαρες πρεσβύτεροι οἱ ἐνώπιον [τοῦ θρόνου] τοῦ Θεοῦ, οἳ κάθηνται ἐπὶ τοὺς θρόνους αὐτῶν, ἔπεσαν ἐπὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν καὶ προσεκύνησαν τῷ Θεῷ
17 λεγοντες· ευχαριστουμεν σοι, κυριε ο θεος ο παντοκρατωρ, ο ων και ο ην [και ο ερχομενος], οτι ειληφας την δυναμιν σου την μεγαλην και εβασιλευσας,
17 saying: “We give you thanks, Lord God, the Almighty, the one who is and who was, because you have taken your great power and reigned.
17 λέγοντες· εὐχαριστοῦμέν σοι, Κύριε ὁ Θεὸς ὁ παντοκράτωρ, ὁ ὢν καὶ ὁ ἦν [καὶ ὁ ἐρχόμενος], ὅτι εἴληφας τὴν δύναμίν σου τὴν μεγάλην καὶ ἐβασίλευσας,
18 και τα εθνη ωργισθησαν, και ηλθεν η οργη σου και ο καιρος των εθνων κριθηναι και δουναι τον μισθον τοις δουλοις σου τοις προφηταις και τοις αγιοις τοις φοβουμενοις το ονομα σου, τοις μικροις και τοις μεγαλοις, και διαφθειραι τους διαφθειραντας την γην.
18 The nations were angry, and your wrath came, as did the time for the dead to be judged, and to give your bondservants the prophets, their reward, as well as to the saints and those who fear your name, to the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”
18 καὶ τὰ ἔθνη ὠργίσθησαν, καὶ ἦλθεν ἡ ὀργή σου καὶ ὁ καιρὸς τῶν ἐθνῶν κριθῆναι καὶ δοῦναι τὸν μισθὸν τοῖς δούλοις σου τοῖς προφήταις καὶ τοῖς ἁγίοις τοῖς φοβουμένοις τὸ ὄνομά σου, τοῖς μικροῖς καὶ τοῖς μεγάλοις, καὶ διαφθεῖραι τοὺς διαφθείραντας τὴν γῆν.
19 και ηνοιγη ο ναος του θεου ο εν τω ουρανω, και ωφθη η κιβωτος της διαθηκης κυριου εν τω ναω αυτου, και εγενοντο αστραπαι και φωναι και βρονται και σεισμος και χαλαζα μεγαλη.
19 God’s temple that is in heaven was opened, and the ark of the Lord’s covenant was seen in his temple. Lightnings, sounds, thunders, an earthquake, and great hail followed.
19 Καὶ ἠνοίγη ὁ ναὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ ὁ ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ, καὶ ὤφθη ἡ κιβωτὸς τῆς διαθήκης Κυρίου ἐν τῷ ναῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐγένοντο ἀστραπαὶ καὶ φωναὶ καὶ βρονταὶ καὶ σεισμὸς καὶ χάλαζα μεγάλη.

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).
The altar, then, is in heaven (for towards that place are our prayers and oblations directed); the temple likewise [is there], as John says in the Apocalypse, "And the temple of God was opened:" the tabernacle also: "For, behold," He says, "the tabernacle of God, in which He will dwell with men."
