Revelation 17
Maori Bible
17 Na ka haere mai tetahi o nga anahera e whitu, kei a ratou nei nga oko e whitu, a ka korero mai ki ahau, ka mea, Haere mai; maku e whakakite ki a koe te whakawakanga o te wahine kairau, o te mea nui e noho ana i runga i nga wai maha:
2 Kua moea pukutia nei e nga kingi o te whenua, a haurangi iho te hunga e noho ana i te whenua i te waina o tona moepuku.
3 Na ka arahina ahau i roto i te Wairua e ia ki te koraha: a ka kite ahau i tetahi wahine e noho ana i runga i tetahi kararehe whero, kapi tonu i te ingoa kohukohu, e whitu ona mahunga, tekau nga haona.
4 Na, ko te kakahu o te wahine ra he mea papura, he mea whero, he mea whakapaipai ki te koura, ki te kohatu utu nui, ki te peara, he kapu koura hoki kei tona ringa ki tonu i te mea whakarihariha, i te poke hoki o tona moepuku:
5 I tona rae ano hoki tetahi ingoa tuhituhi rawa, KO TE MEA NGARO, KO PAPURONA NUI, KO TE WHAEA O NGA WAHINE KAIRAU, O NGA MEA WHAKARIHARIHA HOKI O TE AO.
6 I kite ano ahau i taua wahine nei e haurangi ana i nga toto o te hunga tapu, i nga toto hoki o nga kaiwhakaatu i a Ihu: a, no toku kitenga i a ia, nui atu te miharo i miharo ai ahau.
7 A ka mea mai te anahera ki ahau, He aha koe i miharo? maku e korero ki a koe taua mea ngaro, te wahine, me te kararehe hoki e waha ra i a ia, nona nei nga matenga e whitu me nga haona kotahi tekau.
8 Ko te karaehe i kite ra koe, i mua ia, kahore hoki inaianei; ka puta ake ano hoki ia a mua i roto i te poka torere, a ka riro atu ki te whakangaromanga: na, ko te hunga e noho ana ki te whenua, kahore nei o ratou ingoa i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o te ora o te orokohanganga ra ano o te ao, ka miharo ratou ina kite i te kararehe i ora i mua, a kahore nei inaianei, a tenei ake ka puta.
9 Tenei te hinengaro whai mahara. Ko nga matenga e whitu he maunga, e whitu, kei runga te wahine i era e noho ana:
10 Na e whitu era kingi: tokorima kua hinga, kotahi tenei, ko tetahi kahore ano i tae noa mai; a ka tae mai ia, me noho ia, he wa iti nei.
11 Na ko te kararehe, ko te mea i mua ra, a kahore nei inaianei, he tuawaru ano ia, no nga tokowhitu ano hoki; a e riro ana ia ki te whakangaromanga.
12 Na, ko nga haona kotahi tekau i kite ra koe, kotahi tekau era kingi, kahore ano kia whiwhi noa ki tetahi rangatiratanga; heoi kotahi te haora e whiwhi tahi ai ratou ko te kararehe ki te mana, me te mea he kingi.
13 Kotahi tonu te whakaaro nui a enei, e hoatu ano e ratou to ratou kaha, to ratou mana ki te kararehe.
14 E whawhai ano enei ki te Reme, e taea ano ratou e te Reme: no te mea ko te Ariki ia o nga ariki, ko te Kingi o nga kingi: a ka taea ano hoki e ratou ko ona hoa, ko te hunga he mea karanga, he mea whiriwhiri, he hunga pono.
15 I mea mai ano ia ki ahau, Ko nga wai i kitea e koe i te nohoanga o te wahine kairau ra, ko nga huihuinga tangata ratou, ko nga mano, ko nga iwi, ko nga reo.
16 Na, ko nga haona kotahi tekau i kitea e koe, me te kararehe, e kino ano enei ki te wahine kairua, ka meinga ia e ratou kia moti rawa iho, kia noho tahanga, e kai ano ratou i ona kikokiko, e tahu hoki i a ia kia pau rawa i te ahi.
17 Kua hoatu hoki e te Atua ki o ratou ngakau kia whakarite i tana i pai ai, kia kotahi ano hoki o ratou whakaaro, kia hoatu hoki e ratou to ratou rangatiratanga ki te kararehe, kia rite ra ano nga kupu a te Atua.
18 Na, ko te wahine i kite na koe, ko te pai nui ia, kei a ia nei te kingitanga i runga i nga kingi o te ao.

Babylon, the Prostitute on the Beast
17 One of the seven angels(A) who had the seven bowls(B) came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the punishment(C) of the great prostitute,(D) who sits by many waters.(E) 2 With her the kings of the earth committed adultery, and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries.”(F)
3 Then the angel carried me away in the Spirit(G) into a wilderness.(H) There I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet(I) beast that was covered with blasphemous names(J) and had seven heads and ten horns.(K) 4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and was glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls.(L) She held a golden cup(M) in her hand, filled with abominable things and the filth of her adulteries.(N) 5 The name written on her forehead was a mystery:(O)
6 I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of God’s holy people,(R) the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.
When I saw her, I was greatly astonished. 7 Then the angel said to me: “Why are you astonished? I will explain to you the mystery(S) of the woman and of the beast she rides, which has the seven heads and ten horns.(T) 8 The beast, which you saw, once was, now is not, and yet will come up out of the Abyss(U) and go to its destruction.(V) The inhabitants of the earth(W) whose names have not been written in the book of life(X) from the creation of the world will be astonished(Y) when they see the beast, because it once was, now is not, and yet will come.
9 “This calls for a mind with wisdom.(Z) The seven heads(AA) are seven hills on which the woman sits. 10 They are also seven kings. Five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; but when he does come, he must remain for only a little while. 11 The beast who once was, and now is not,(AB) is an eighth king. He belongs to the seven and is going to his destruction.
12 “The ten horns(AC) you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour(AD) will receive authority as kings along with the beast. 13 They have one purpose and will give their power and authority to the beast.(AE) 14 They will wage war(AF) against the Lamb, but the Lamb will triumph over(AG) them because he is Lord of lords and King of kings(AH)—and with him will be his called, chosen(AI) and faithful followers.”
15 Then the angel said to me, “The waters(AJ) you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations and languages.(AK) 16 The beast and the ten horns(AL) you saw will hate the prostitute.(AM) They will bring her to ruin(AN) and leave her naked;(AO) they will eat her flesh(AP) and burn her with fire.(AQ) 17 For God has put it into their hearts(AR) to accomplish his purpose by agreeing to hand over to the beast their royal authority,(AS) until God’s words are fulfilled.(AT) 18 The woman you saw is the great city(AU) that rules over the kings of the earth.”
