Notes on this text (1)
- Includes the books not found in the Hebrew Bible (Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch, Letter of Jeremiah, 1–3 Maccabees, 2 and 3 Esdras, Prayer of Manasseh), as in the Synodal editions.
1 И показал мне чистую реку воды жизни, светлую, как кристалл, исходящую от престола Бога и Агнца.
1 He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb,
2 Среди улицы его, и по ту и по другую сторону реки, древо жизни, двенадцать раз приносящее плоды, дающее на каждый месяц плод свой; и листья дерева — для исцеления народов.
2 in the middle of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 И ничего уже не будет проклятого; но престол Бога и Агнца будет в нем, и рабы Его будут служить Ему.
3 There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will serve him.
4 И узрят лице Его, и имя Его будет на челах их.
4 They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.
5 И ночи не будет там, и не будут иметь нужды ни в светильнике, ни в свете солнечном, ибо Господь Бог освещает их; и будут царствовать во веки веков.
5 There will be no night, and they need no lamp light or sun light; for the Lord God will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever.
6 И сказал мне: сии слова верны и истинны; и Господь Бог святых пророков послал Ангела Своего показать рабам Своим то, чему надлежит быть вскоре.
6 He said to me, “These words are faithful and true. The Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to show to his bondservants the things which must happen soon.”
7 Се, гряду скоро: блажен соблюдающий слова пророчества книги сей.
7 “Behold, I am coming soon! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.”
8 Я, Иоанн, видел и слышал сие. Когда же услышал и увидел, пал к ногам Ангела, показывающего мне сие, чтобы поклониться ему;
8 Now I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. When I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who had shown me these things.
9 но он сказал мне: смотри, не делай сего; ибо я сослужитель тебе и братьям твоим пророкам и соблюдающим слова книги сей; Богу поклонись.
9 He said to me, “You must not do that! I am a fellow bondservant with you and with your brothers, the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.”
10 И сказал мне: не запечатывай слов пророчества книги сей; ибо время близко.
10 He said to me, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand.
11 Неправедный пусть еще делает неправду; нечистый пусть еще сквернится; праведный да творит правду еще, и святый да освящается еще.
11 He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still.”
12 Се, гряду скоро, и возмездие Мое со Мною, чтобы воздать каждому по делам его.
12 “Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, to repay to each man according to his work.
13 Я есмь Альфа и Омега, начало и конец, Первый и Последний.
13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
14 Блаженны те, которые соблюдают заповеди Его, чтобы иметь им право на древо жизни и войти в город воротами.
14 Blessed are those who do his commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in by the gates into the city.
15 А вне — псы и чародеи, и любодеи, и убийцы, и идолослужители, и всякий любящий и делающий неправду.
15 Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
16 Я, Иисус, послал Ангела Моего засвидетельствовать вам сие в церквах. Я есмь корень и потомок Давида, звезда светлая и утренняя.
16 I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify these things to you for the assemblies. I am the root and the offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”
17 И Дух и невеста говорят: прииди! И слышавший да скажет прииди! Жаждущий пусть приходит, и желающий пусть берет воду жизни даром.
17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” He who hears, let him say, “Come!” He who is thirsty, let him come. He who desires, let him take the water of life freely.
18 И я также свидетельствую всякому слышащему слова пророчества книги сей: если кто приложит что к ним, на того наложит Бог язвы, о которых написано в книге сей;
18 I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book.
19 и если кто отнимет что от слов книги пророчества сего, у того отнимет Бог участие в книге жизни и в святом граде и в том, что написано в книге сей.
19 If anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his part from the tree of life, and out of the holy city, which are written in this book.
20 Свидетельствующий сие говорит: ей, гряду скоро! Аминь. Ей, гряди, Господи Иисусе!
20 He who testifies these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen! Yes, come, Lord Jesus!
21 Благодать Господа нашего Иисуса Христа со всеми вами. Аминь.
21 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with all the saints. Amen.

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).
And thus He forewarns us: "Behold, the Lord [cometh], and His reward is before His face, to render to every man according to his work." He exhorts us, therefore, with our whole heart to attend to this, that we be not lazy or slothful in any good work.
… easy to obtain from the Church; since the apostles, like a rich man [depositing his money] in a bank, lodged in her hands most copiously all things pertaining to the truth: so that every man, whosoever will, can draw from her the water of life. For she is the entrance to life; all others are thieves and robbers.
But said the angel, "Rise; see thou do it not: worship God, for I am thy fellow-servant, and the brethren's." An angel, then, forbade a man to fall down at his feet.

He says, "be consummated," be completed, according to that in the Apocalypse, "Let the righteous become more righteous, and let the filthy be filthy still." For the wickedness of those men appears consummate, who crucified the Son of God; but greater is theirs who will not live uprightly, and hate the precepts of truth, for whom the Son of God …
