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.”

King James Version
Revelation 17
King James Version
17 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother Of Harlots And Abominations Of The Earth.
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
