1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to shew unto his servants, [even ]the things which must shortly come to pass: and he sent and signified [it ]by his angel unto his servant John;
1 LA revelación de Jesucristo, que Dios le dió, para manifestar á sus siervos las cosas que deben suceder presto; y [la] declaró, enviándo[la] por su ángel á Juan su siervo,
2 who bare witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, [even ]of all things that he saw.
2 El cual ha dado testimonio de la palabra de Dios, y del testimonio de Jesucristo, y de todas las cosas que ha visto.
3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
3 Bienaventurado el que lee, y los que oyen las palabras de esta profecía, y guardan las cosas en ella escritas: porque el tiempo está cerca.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him which is and which was and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
4 Juan á las siete iglesias que están en Asia: Gracia [sea] con vosotros, y paz del que es y que era y que ha de venir, y de los siete Espíritus que están delante de su trono;
5 and from Jesus Christ, [who is ]the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loveth us, and loosed us from our sins by his blood;
5 Y de Jesucristo, el testigo fiel, el primogénito de los muertos, y príncipe de los reyes de la tierra. Al que nos amó, y nos ha lavado de nuestros pecados con su sangre,
6 and he made us [to be ]a kingdom, [to be ]priests unto his God and Father; to him [be ]the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
6 Y nos ha hecho reyes y sacerdotes para Dios y su Padre; á él [sea] gloria é imperio para siempre jamás. Amén.
7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they which pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
7 He aquí que viene con las nubes, y todo ojo le verá, y los que le traspasaron; y todos los linajes de la tierra se lamentarán sobre él. Así sea. Amén.
8 I am the Alpha and the Omega, saith the Lord God, which is and which was and which is to come, the Almighty.
8 Yo soy el Alpha y la Omega, principio y fin, dice el Señor, que es y que era y que ha de venir, el Todopoderoso.
9 I John, your brother and partaker with you in the tribulation and kingdom and patience [which are ]in Jesus, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.
9 Yo Juan, vuestro hermano, y participante en la tribulación y en el reino, y en la paciencia de Jesucristo, estaba en la isla que es llamada Patmos, por la palabra de Dios y el testimonio de Jesucristo.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet
10 Yo fuí en el Espíritu en el día del Señor, y oí detrás de mí una gran voz como de trompeta,
11 saying, What thou seest, write in a book, and send [it ]to the seven churches; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
11 Que decía: Yo soy el Alpha y Omega, el primero y el último. Escribe en un libro lo que ves, y envía[lo] á las siete iglesias que están en Asia; á Efeso, y á Smirna, y á Pérgamo, y á Tiatira, y á Sardis, y á Filadelfia, y á Laodicea.
12 And I turned to see the voice which spake with me. And having turned I saw seven golden candlesticks;
12 Y me volví á ver la voz que hablaba conmigo: y vuelto, vi siete candeleros de oro;
13 and in the midst of the candlesticks one like unto a son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about at the breasts with a golden girdle.
13 Y en medio de los siete candeleros, uno semejante al Hijo del hombre, vestido de una ropa que llegaba hasta los pies, y ceñido por los pechos con una cinta de oro.
14 And his head and his hair were white as white wool, [white ]as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
14 Y su cabeza y sus cabellos eran blancos como la lana blanca, como la nieve; y sus ojos como llama de fuego;
15 and his feet like unto burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace; and his voice as the voice of many waters.
15 Y sus pies semejantes al latón fino, ardientes como en un horno; y su voz como ruido de muchas aguas.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
16 Y tenía en su diestra siete estrellas: y de su boca salía una espada aguda de dos filos. Y su rostro era como el sol cuando resplandece en su fuerza.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as one dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying, Fear not; I am the first and the last,
17 Y cuando yo le vi, caí como muerto á sus pies. Y él puso su diestra sobre mí, diciéndome: No temas: yo soy el primero y el último;
18 and the Living one; and I was dead, and behold, I am alive for evermore, and I have the keys of death and of Hades.
18 Y el que vivo, y he sido muerto; y he aquí que vivo por siglos de siglos, Amén. Y tengo las llaves del infierno y de la muerte:
19 Write therefore the things which thou sawest, and the things which are, and the things which shall come to pass hereafter;
19 Escribe las cosas que has visto, y las que son, y las que han de ser después de éstas:
20 the mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks are seven churches.
20 El misterio de las siete estrellas que has visto en mi diestra, y los siete candeleros de oro. Las siete estrellas son los ángeles de las siete iglesias; y los siete candeleros que has visto, son las siete iglesias.

Lo que dijeron los Padres
Pasajes de los Padres de la Iglesia que comentan o citan este capítulo, tal como aparecen en la edición de Schaff (traducciones inglesas del siglo XIX, de dominio público). Los textos están en inglés.
Cómo se eligieron
«Comentario» es el comienzo de una homilía o exposición sobre este capítulo (homilías de san Juan Crisóstomo; tratados, sermones y comentarios a los Salmos de san Agustín). «Cita» es una frase en la que las notas de la propia edición identifican la cita de un versículo de este capítulo; solo se conserva si el texto coincide con el versículo. Solo se usan obras de autoría segura. Los Salmos siguen la numeración hebrea (Agustín usa la de los Setenta: su Salmo 50 es aquí el 51).
And the prophet, too, indicates the same, saying, "instead of fathers, children have been born unto thee." For the Lord, having been born "the First-begotten of the dead," and receiving into His bosom the ancient fathers, has regenerated them into the life of God, He having been made Himself the beginning of those that live, as Adam became the beginning …
For which reason also the Apostle John writes to the seven churches, showing in that way that he writes to the totality of the one Church; and in the Proverbs of Solomon it is said aforetime, prefiguring this, "Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath strengthened her seven pillars." For the city of God was barren in all nations before …

"The Lord rained down fire from the Lord;" and "A sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of Thy Kingdom;" and "Which is and was and is to come, the Almighty" --all which are clearly spoken of the Son, with all the other passages of the same force, none of which is an afterthought, or added later to the Son or …

On this account also does John declare in the Apocalypse, "And His voice as the sound of many waters." For the Spirit [of God] is truly [like] many waters, since the Father is both rich and great.
The Apocalypse is a book of St. John the Evangelist; and he writes "to seven Churches." Be ye hungered; own ye these baskets.
