WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)

1 After this I loked and beholde a dore was open in heven and the fyrste voyce which I harde was as it were of a trompet talkinge with me which said: come vp hydder and I will shewe the thynges which must be fulfyllyd hereafter.

1 DESPUÉS de estas cosas miré, y he aquí una puerta abierta en el cielo: y la primera voz que oí, [era] como de trompeta que hablaba conmigo, diciendo: Sube acá, y yo te mostraré las cosas que han de ser después de éstas.

1 After these things I looked and saw a door opened in heaven; and the first voice that I heard, like a trumpet speaking with me, was one saying, “Come up here, and I will show you the things which must happen after this.”

2 And immediatly I was in the sprete: and beholde a seate was put in heven and one sate on the seate.

2 Y luego yo fuí en Espíritu: y he aquí, un trono que estaba puesto en el cielo, y sobre el trono estaba uno sentado.

2 Immediately I was in the Spirit. Behold, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne

3 And he that sat was to loke apon like vnto a iaspar stone and a sardyne stone: And there was a rayne bowe aboute the seate in syght lyke to an Emeralde.

3 Y el que estaba sentado, era al parecer semejante á una piedra de jaspe y de sardio: y un arco celeste [había] alrededor del trono, semejante en el aspecto á la esmeralda.

3 that looked like a jasper stone and a sardius. There was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald to look at.

4 And aboute the seate were .xxiiii. seates. And upon the seates .xxiiii. elders syttinge clothed in whyte rayment and had on their heddes crounes of gold.

4 Y alrededor del trono había veinticuatro sillas: y vi sobre las sillas veinticuatro ancianos sentados, vestidos de ropas blancas; y tenían sobre sus cabezas coronas de oro.

4 Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads.

5 And out of the seate proceded lightnynges and thundrynges and voyces and there wer vii. lampes of fyre burninge before the seate which are the vii. sprettes of God.

5 Y del trono salían relámpagos y truenos y voces: y siete lámparas de fuego estaban ardiendo delante del trono, las cuales son los siete Espíritus de Dios.

5 Out of the throne proceed lightnings, sounds, and thunders. There were seven lamps of fire burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.

6 And before the seate there was a see of glasse lyke vnto cristall and in the myddes of the seate and rounde aboute the seate were iiii. bestes full of eyes before and behynde.

6 Y delante del trono [había] como un mar de vidrio semejante al cristal; y en medio del trono, y alrededor del trono, cuatro animales llenos de ojos delante y detrás.

6 Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the middle of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.

7 And the fyrste best was lyke a lion the seconde best lyke a calfe and the thyrde beste had a face as a man and the fourthe beste was like a flyinge egle.

7 Y el primer animal [era] semejante á un león; y el segundo animal, semejante á un becerro; y el tercer animal tenía la cara como de hombre; y el cuarto animal, semejante á un águila volando.

7 The first creature was like a lion, the second creature like a calf, the third creature had a face like a man, and the fourth was like a flying eagle.

8 And the iiii. bestes had eche one of them vi. wynges aboute him and they were full of eyes with in. And they had noo reste daye nether nyght sayinge: holy holy holy lorde god almyghty which was and is and is to come.

8 Y los cuatro animales tenían cada uno por sí seis alas alrededor, y de dentro estaban llenos de ojos; y no tenían reposo día ni noche, diciendo: Santo, santo, santo el Señor Dios Todopoderoso, que era, y que es, y que ha de venir.

8 The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come!”

9 And when those beestes gave glory and honour and thankes to him that sat on the seate which lyveth for ever and ever:

9 Y cuando aquellos animales daban gloria y honra y alabanza al que estaba sentado en el trono, al que vive para siempre jamás,

9 When the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever,

10 the xxiiii. elders fell doune before him that sat on the trone and worshipped him that lyveth for ever and caste their crounes before the trone sayinge:

10 Los veinticuatro ancianos se postraban delante del que estaba sentado en el trono, y adoraban al que vive para siempre jamás, y echaban sus coronas delante del trono, diciendo:

10 the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying,

11 thou arte worthy lorde to receave glory and honoure and power for thou haste created all thinges and for thy wylles sake they are and were created.

11 Señor, digno eres de recibir gloria y honra y virtud: porque tú criaste todas las cosas, y por tu voluntad tienen ser y fueron criadas.

11 “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, the Holy One, to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed and were created!”
