1 After these things I heard something like a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Hallelujah! Salvation, power, and glory belong to our God;
1 DESPUÉS de estas cosas oí una gran voz de gran compañía en el cielo, que decía: Aleluya: Salvación y honra y gloria y potencia al Señor Dios nuestro.
2 for his judgements are true and righteous. For he has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her sexual immorality, and he has avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.”
2 Porque sus juicios son verdaderos y justos; porque él ha juzgado á la grande ramera, que ha corrompido la tierra con su fornicación, y ha vengado la sangre de sus siervos de la mano de ella.
3 A second said, “Hallelujah! Her smoke goes up forever and ever.”
3 Y otra vez dijeron: Aleluya. Y su humo subió para siempre jamás.
4 The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped God who sits on the throne, saying, “Amen! Hallelujah!”
4 Y los veinticuatro ancianos y los cuatro animales se postraron en tierra, y adoraron á Dios que estaba sentado sobre el trono, diciendo: Amén: Aleluya.
5 A voice came from the throne, saying, “Give praise to our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, the small and the great!”
5 Y salió una voz del trono, que decía: Load á nuestro Dios todos sus siervos, y los que le teméis, así pequeños como grandes.
6 I heard something like the voice of a great multitude, and like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of mighty thunders, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns!
6 Y oí como la voz de una grande compañía, y como el ruido de muchas aguas, y como la voz de grandes truenos, que decía: Aleluya: porque reinó el Señor nuestro Dios Todopoderoso.
7 Let’s rejoice and be exceedingly glad, and let’s give the glory to him. For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready.”
7 Gocémonos y alegrémonos y démosle gloria; porque son venidas las bodas del Cordero, y su esposa se ha aparejado.
8 It was given to her that she would array herself in bright, pure, fine linen, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.
8 Y le fué dado que se vista de lino fino, limpio y brillante: porque el lino fino son las justificaciones de los santos.
9 He said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb.’” He said to me, “These are true words of God.”
9 Y él me dice: Escribe: Bienaventurados los que son llamados á la cena del Cordero. Y me dijo: Estas palabras de Dios son verdaderas.
10 I fell down before his feet to worship him. He said to me, “Look! Don’t do it! I am a fellow bondservant with you and with your brothers who hold the testimony of Jesus. Worship God, for the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of Prophecy.”
10 Y yo me eché á sus pies para adorarle. Y él me dijo: Mira que no lo hagas: yo soy siervo contigo, y con tus hermanos que tienen el testimonio de Jesús: adora á Dios; porque el testimonio de Jesús es el espíritu de la profecía.
11 I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it is called Faithful and True. In righteousness he judges and makes war.
11 Y vi el cielo abierto; y he aquí un caballo blanco, y el que estaba sentado sobre él, era llamado Fiel y Verdadero, el cual con justicia juzga y pelea.
12 His eyes are a flame of fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has names written and a name written which no one knows but he himself.
12 Y sus ojos [eran] como llama de fuego, y [había] en su cabeza muchas diademas; y tenía un nombre escrito que ninguno entendía sino él mismo.
13 He is clothed in a garment sprinkled with blood. His name is called “The Word of God.”
13 Y estaba vestido de una ropa teñida en sangre: y su nombre es llamado EL VERBO DE DIOS.
14 The armies which are in heaven, clothed in white, pure, fine linen, followed him on white horses.
14 Y los ejércitos que están en el cielo le seguían en caballos blancos, vestidos de lino finísimo, blanco y limpio.
15 Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He treads the wine press of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty.
15 Y de su boca sale una espada aguda, para herir con ella las gentes: y él los regirá con vara de hierro; y él pisa el lagar del vino del furor, y de la ira del Dios Todopoderoso.
16 He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.”
16 Y en su vestidura y en su muslo tiene escrito este nombre: REY DE REYES Y SEÑOR DE SEÑORES.
17 I saw an angel standing in the sun. He cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the sky, “Come! Be gathered together to the great supper of God,
17 Y vi un ángel que estaba en el sol, y clamó con gran voz, diciendo á todas las aves que volaban por medio del cielo: Venid, y congregaos á la cena del gran Dios,
18 that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, small and great.”
18 Para que comáis carnes de reyes, y de capitanes, y carnes de fuertes, y carnes de caballos, y de los que están sentados sobre ellos; y carnes de todos, libres y siervos, de pequeños y de grandes.
19 I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him who sat on the horse and against his army.
19 Y vi la bestia, y los reyes de la tierra y sus ejércitos, congregados para hacer guerra contra el que estaba sentado sobre el caballo, y contra su ejército.
20 The beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who worked the signs in his sight, with which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshipped his image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulphur.
20 Y la bestia fué presa, y con ella el falso profeta que había hecho las señales delante de ella, con las cuales había engañado á los que tomaron la señal de la bestia, y habían adorado su imagen. Estos dos fueron lanzados vivos dentro de un lago de fuego ardiendo en azufre.
21 The rest were killed with the sword of him who sat on the horse, the sword which came out of his mouth. So all the birds were filled with their flesh.
21 Y los otros fueron muertos con la espada que salía de la boca del que estaba sentado sobre el caballo, y todas las aves fueron hartas de las carnes de ellos.

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 He hath upon His vesture and upon His thigh a name written, King of Kings and Lord of Lords." Thus does the Word of God always preserve the outlines, as it were, of things to come, and points out to men the various forms (species), as it were, of the dispensations of the Father, teaching us the things pertaining …
… wonderful vision had been shown him, he trembled, and fell down at the Angel's feet; but that Angel, who sought not but the glory of God, said, "See thou do it not; for I am a fellow-servant of thee, and of thy brethren the prophets." What then, my brethren?

And further, if the Creator and Lord of all things is called also King of Kings and Lord of Lords and God of Gods, surely also the saints are gods and lords and kings.

… person the apostasy, and accomplishes whatever he shall do according to his own will and choice, sitting also in the temple of God, so that his dupes may adore him as the Christ; wherefore also shall he deservedly "be cast into the lake of fire:" [this will happen according to divine appointment], God by His prescience foreseeing all this, and …
