The Revelation of Saint John the Divine / Die Openbaring van Sint Johannes die Goddelike

<p><strong>1:12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned I saw seven golden candlesticks; </strong></p><p>1:12 En ek het omgedraai om die stem te sien wat met my gespreek het . En toe ek my omgedraai het het ek sewe goue kandelaars gesien; </p><p><strong>1:13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man clothed with a garment down to the foot and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. </strong></p><p>1:13 En in die middel van die sewe kandelaars een soos die Seun van die mens bekleed met 'n kleed tot op die voete en omgord die pappe met 'n goue gordel. </p><p><strong>1:14 His head and his hairs were white like wool as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; </strong></p><p>1:14 Sy hoof en sy hare was wit soos wol so wit soos sneeu; en sy oë was soos 'n vuurvlam; </p><p><strong>1:15 And his feet like unto fine brass as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. </strong></p><p>1:15 En sy voete soos fyn koper asof dit in 'n oond brand; en sy stem soos die geluid van baie waters. </p><p><strong>1:16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength. </strong></p><p>1:16 En hy het sewe sterre in sy regterhand gehad en 'n skerp tweesnydende swaard het uit sy mond uitgegaan en sy aangesig was soos die son wat skyn in sy krag. </p><p><strong>1:17 And when I saw him I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me saying unto me Fear not; I am the first and the last: </strong></p><p>1:17 En toe ek hom sien val ek soos 'n dooie aan sy voete. En hy het sy regterhand op my gelê en vir my gesê: Moenie vrees nie; Ek is die eerste en die laaste: </p><p><strong>1:18 I am he that liveth and was dead; and behold I am alive for evermore Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. </strong></p><p>1:18 Ek is die lewende en dood was; en kyk Ek lewe vir ewig Amen; en het die sleutels van die hel en van die dood. </p>
