啟示錄 11
Chinese Union Version Modern Punctuation (Traditional)

聖城遭遇踐踏

11 有一根葦子賜給我當做量度的杖，且有話說：「起來，將神的殿和祭壇並在殿中禮拜的人都量一量。 2 只是殿外的院子要留下不用量，因為這是給了外邦人的，他們要踐踏聖城四十二個月。 3 我要使我那兩個見證人穿著毛衣，傳道一千二百六十天。」 4 他們就是那兩棵橄欖樹，兩個燈臺，立在世界之主面前的。 5 若有人想要害他們，就有火從他們口中出來，燒滅仇敵。凡想要害他們的都必這樣被殺。 6 這二人有權柄在他們傳道的日子叫天閉塞不下雨，又有權柄叫水變為血，並且能隨時隨意用各樣的災殃攻擊世界。 7 他們作完見證的時候，那從無底坑裡上來的獸必與他們交戰，並且得勝，把他們殺了。

屍首倒在街道上

8 他們的屍首就倒在大城裡的街上，這城按著靈意叫所多瑪，又叫埃及，就是他們的主釘十字架之處。 9 從各民、各族、各方、各國中，有人觀看他們的屍首三天半，又不許把屍首放在墳墓裡。 10 住在地上的人就為他們歡喜快樂，互相饋送禮物，因這兩位先知曾叫住在地上的人受痛苦。

過三天半復生

11 過了這三天半，有生氣從神那裡進入他們裡面，他們就站起來，看見他們的人甚是害怕。 12 兩位先知聽見有大聲音從天上來，對他們說：「上到這裡來！」他們就駕著雲上了天，他們的仇敵也看見了。 13 正在那時候，地大震動，城就倒塌了十分之一，因地震而死的有七千人，其餘的都恐懼，歸榮耀給天上的神。

14 第二樣災禍過去，第三樣災禍快到了。

第七天使吹號

15 第七位天使吹號，天上就有大聲音說：「世上的國成了我主和主基督的國，他要做王，直到永永遠遠。」 16 在神面前、坐在自己位上的二十四位長老就面伏於地，敬拜神， 17 說：「昔在、今在的主神，全能者啊！我們感謝你，因你執掌大權做王了。 18 外邦發怒，你的憤怒也臨到了！審判死人的時候也到了！你的僕人眾先知和眾聖徒，凡敬畏你名的人，連大帶小得賞賜的時候也到了！你敗壞那些敗壞世界之人的時候也就到了！」

19 當時，神天上的殿開了，在他殿中現出他的約櫃，隨後有閃電、聲音、雷轟、地震、大雹。

启示录 11
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)

两位见证人

11 有一根杆子赐给我当量尺，同时有声音吩咐我说：“起来，量一量上帝的殿和祭坛，并数点在殿里敬拜的人。 2 你不用量圣殿的外院，因为这部分已经给了外族人，他们要践踏圣城四十二个月。 3 我要赐权柄给我的两个见证人，他们将身穿麻衣，传道一千二百六十天。”

4 这两位见证人就是竖立在世界之主面前的那两棵橄榄树和两座灯台。 5 若有人要伤害他们，他们便从口中喷出火焰，烧灭敌人；若有人企图加害他们，必定会这样被杀。 6 他们拥有权能，在传道期间可以关闭天空使雨不降在地上，又有权使水变成血，并随时用各样的灾祸击打世界。

7 当他们做完见证以后，从无底坑上来的兽要和他们交战，并战胜他们，把他们杀掉。 8 他们便陈尸在大城的街上，这大城按寓意名叫所多玛，又名埃及，是他们的主被钉在十字架上的地方。 9 三天半之久，他们的尸体不得埋葬，各民族、各部落、各语言族群、各国家的人都观看他们的尸体。 10 地上万民便兴高采烈，互相送礼道贺，因为这两位先知曾使地上的人受苦。

11 三天半过后，上帝的生命之气进入二人里面，他们便站立起来。看见的人都害怕极了！ 12 接着天上有大声音呼唤他们说：“上这里来！”他们就在敌人的注视下驾云升上天去。 13 就在那一刻，发生了强烈的地震，那座城的十分之一倒塌了，因地震死亡的共七千人，生还者都在恐惧中将荣耀归给天上的上帝。

14 第二样灾难过去了，第三样灾难又接踵而来！

第七位天使吹号

15 第七位天使吹响号角的时候，天上有大声音说：“世上的国度现在已经属于我们的主和祂所立的基督了。祂要做王，直到永永远远。” 16 在上帝面前，坐在自己座位上的二十四位长老都一同俯伏敬拜上帝，说：

17 “主啊！昔在、今在的全能上帝啊！
我们感谢你，
因你已施展大能做王了。
18 世上的列国曾向你发怒，
现在是你向他们发烈怒的日子了。
时候已到，你要审判死人，
你要赏赐你的奴仆、先知、圣徒
和一切不论尊卑敬畏你名的人，
你要毁灭那些毁坏世界的人。”

19 那时，天上上帝的圣殿敞开了，殿内的约柜清晰可见，又有闪电、巨响、雷鸣、地震和大冰雹。

Revelation 11
New English Translation

The Fate of the Two Witnesses

11 Then[a] a measuring rod[b] like a staff was given to me, and I was told,[c] “Get up and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and the ones who worship there. 2 But[d] do not measure the outer courtyard[e] of the temple; leave it out,[f] because it has been given to the Gentiles,[g] and they will trample on the holy city[h] for forty-two months. 3 And I will grant my two witnesses authority[i] to prophesy for 1,260 days, dressed in sackcloth.” 4 (These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.)[j] 5 If[k] anyone wants to harm them, fire comes out of their mouths[l] and completely consumes[m] their enemies. If[n] anyone wants to harm them, they must be killed this way. 6 These two have the power[o] to close up the sky so that it does not rain during the time[p] they are prophesying. They[q] have power[r] to turn the waters to blood and to strike the earth with every kind of plague whenever they want. 7 When[s] they have completed their testimony, the beast that comes up from the abyss will make war on them and conquer[t] them and kill them. 8 Their[u] corpses will lie in the street[v] of the great city that is symbolically[w] called Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was also crucified. 9 For three and a half days those from every[x] people, tribe,[y] nation, and language will look at their corpses, because they will not permit them to be placed in a tomb.[z] 10 And those who live on the earth will rejoice over them and celebrate, even sending gifts to each other, because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth. 11 But[aa] after three and a half days a breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and tremendous fear seized[ab] those who were watching them. 12 Then[ac] they[ad] heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them: “Come up here!” So the two prophets[ae] went up to heaven in a cloud while[af] their enemies stared at them. 13 Just then[ag] a major earthquake took place and a tenth of the city collapsed; seven thousand people[ah] were killed in the earthquake, and the rest were terrified and gave glory to the God of heaven.

14 The second woe has come and gone;[ai] the third is coming quickly.

The Seventh Trumpet

15 Then[aj] the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven saying:

“The kingdom of the world
has become the kingdom of our Lord
and of his Christ,[ak]
and he will reign for ever and ever.”

16 Then[al] the twenty-four elders who are seated on their thrones before God threw themselves down with their faces to the ground[am] and worshiped God 17 with these words:[an]

“We give you thanks, Lord God, the All-Powerful,[ao]
the one who is and who was,
because you have taken your great power
and begun to reign.[ap]
18 The[aq] nations[ar] were enraged,
but[as] your wrath has come,
and the time has come for the dead to be judged,
and the time has come to give to your servants,[at]
the prophets, their reward,
as well as to the saints
and to those who revere[au] your name, both small and great,
and the time has come[av] to destroy those who destroy[aw] the earth.”

19 Then[ax] the temple of God in heaven was opened and the ark of his covenant was visible within his temple. And there were flashes of lightning, roaring,[ay] crashes of thunder, an earthquake, and a great hailstorm.[az]

  47. Revelation 11:18 tn Grk “who fear.”
  48. Revelation 11:18 tn The words “the time has come” do not occur except at the beginning of the verse; the phrase has been repeated for emphasis and contrast. The Greek has one finite verb (“has come”) with a compound subject (“your wrath,” “the time”), followed by three infinitive clauses (“to be judged,” “to give,” “to destroy”). The rhetorical power of the repetition of the finite verb in English thus emulates the rhetorical power of its lone instance in Greek.
  49. Revelation 11:18 tn Or “who deprave.” There is a possible wordplay here on two meanings for διαφθείρω (diaphtheirō), with the first meaning “destroy” and the second meaning either “to ruin” or “to make morally corrupt.” See L&N 20.40.

Ex 19:16) 4:5; 8:5; 11:19; 16:18 (are certain other sounds in nature thought of here in addition to thunder, as e.g. the roar of the storm?…).”
  52. Revelation 11:19 tn Although BDAG 1075 s.v. χάλαζα gives the meaning “hail” here, it is not clear whether the adjective μεγάλη (megalē) refers to the intensity of the storm or the size of the individual hailstones, or both.

Revelation 11
New International Version

The Two Witnesses

11 I was given a reed like a measuring rod(A) and was told, “Go and measure the temple of God and the altar, with its worshipers. 2 But exclude the outer court;(B) do not measure it, because it has been given to the Gentiles.(C) They will trample on the holy city(D) for 42 months.(E) 3 And I will appoint my two witnesses,(F) and they will prophesy for 1,260 days,(G) clothed in sackcloth.”(H) 4 They are “the two olive trees”(I) and the two lampstands, and “they stand before the Lord of the earth.”[a](J) 5 If anyone tries to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and devours their enemies.(K) This is how anyone who wants to harm them must die.(L) 6 They have power to shut up the heavens(M) so that it will not rain during the time they are prophesying;(N) and they have power to turn the waters into blood(O) and to strike the earth with every kind of plague as often as they want.

7 Now when they have finished their testimony, the beast(P) that comes up from the Abyss(Q) will attack them,(R) and overpower and kill them. 8 Their bodies will lie in the public square of the great city(S)—which is figuratively called Sodom(T) and Egypt—where also their Lord was crucified.(U) 9 For three and a half days some from every people, tribe, language and nation(V) will gaze on their bodies and refuse them burial.(W) 10 The inhabitants of the earth(X) will gloat over them and will celebrate by sending each other gifts,(Y) because these two prophets had tormented those who live on the earth.

11 But after the three and a half days(Z) the breath[b] of life from God entered them,(AA) and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them. 12 Then they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.”(AB) And they went up to heaven in a cloud,(AC) while their enemies looked on.

13 At that very hour there was a severe earthquake(AD) and a tenth of the city collapsed. Seven thousand people were killed in the earthquake, and the survivors were terrified and gave glory(AE) to the God of heaven.(AF)

14 The second woe has passed; the third woe is coming soon.(AG)

The Seventh Trumpet

15 The seventh angel sounded his trumpet,(AH) and there were loud voices(AI) in heaven, which said:

“The kingdom of the world has become
    the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah,(AJ)
    and he will reign for ever and ever.”(AK)

16 And the twenty-four elders,(AL) who were seated on their thrones before God, fell on their faces(AM) and worshiped God, 17 saying:

“We give thanks(AN) to you, Lord God Almighty,(AO)
    the One who is and who was,(AP)
because you have taken your great power
    and have begun to reign.(AQ)
18 The nations were angry,(AR)
    and your wrath has come.
The time has come for judging the dead,(AS)
    and for rewarding your servants the prophets(AT)
and your people who revere your name,
    both great and small(AU)—
and for destroying those who destroy the earth.”

19 Then God’s temple(AV) in heaven was opened, and within his temple was seen the ark of his covenant.(AW) And there came flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder,(AX) an earthquake and a severe hailstorm.(AY)
