The Bible

1

As honnick mee ayns y laue-yesh echeysyn va soie er y stoyl-reeoil, lioar scruit er y cheu-sthie as er y chooyl, sealit lesh shiaght sealyn.

And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

2

As honnick mee ainle niartal fockley magh lesh ard-choraa, Quoi ta feeu dy osley yn lioar, as dy eaysley ny sealyn eck?

And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

3

As cha yiarg dooinney erbee ayns niau, ny er y thalloo, ny fo'n thalloo, yn lioar y osley, ny dy yeeaghyn ayn.

And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

4

As cheayn mee dy mooar, er-y-fa nagh row dooinney erbee er ny gheddyn feeu dy osley, as dy lhaih yn lioar, ny dy yeeaghyn ayn.

And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

5

As dooyrt fer jeh ny shanstyryn rhym. Ny jean keayney: cur-my-ner, ec Lion kynney Yudah, fraue Ghavid, ta pooar dy osley yn lioar, as dy eaysley ny shiaght sealyn eck.

And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.

6

As yeeagh mee, as cur-my-ner, kiongoyrt rish y stoyl reeoil, as ny kiare cretooryn, as ayns mean ny shanstyryn, hass Eayn myr dy beagh eh er ny varroo, lesh shiaght eairkyn, as shiaght sooillyn, ta shiaght Spyrrydyn Yee, er nyn goyrt magh trooid ooilley'n seihll.

And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

7

As haink eh as ghow eh yn lioar ass y laue-yesh echeysyn va soie er y stoyl-reeoil

And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

8

As tra v'eh er ghoaill y lioar, huitt ny: kiare cretooryn as ny kiare shanstyryn as feed sheese fenish yn Eayn, as claasaghyn ec dagh unnane oc, as siyn airhey lane dy hoar millish ourallyn, ta padjeryn ny nooghyn.

And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

9

As ghow ad arrane noa, gra, T'ou uss feeu dy ghoaill y lioar, as dy eaysley ny sealyn eck: son v'ou er ny choyrt dy baase, as t'ou er chionnaghey shin reesht gys Jee liorish dty uill, ass dy chooilley chynney, as glare, as pobble, as ashoon;

And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;

10

As t'ou er n'yannoo shin da'n Jee ain, reeaghyn as saggyrtyn: as nee mayd reill er y thalloo.

And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

11

As yeeagh mee, as cheayll mee coraa ymmodee ainleyn mygeayrt y stoyl-reeoil, as ny cretooryn, as ny shanstyryn: as va'n earroo oc jeih thousane keayrt jeih thousaneyn, as thousaneyn dy housaneyn;

And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;

12

Gra lesh ard-choraa, Feeu ta'n Eayn v'er ny varroo, dy gheddyn pooar, as berchys, creenaght, as niart, as ooashley, as gloyr, as bannaght.

Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.

13

As dy chooilley chretoor t'ayns niau, as er y thalloo, as fo'n thalloo, as lheid as ta ayns y cheayn, as ooilley ny t'ayndoo, cheayll mee, gra, Bannaght, as ooashley, as gloyr, as pooar dy row huggeysyn ta soie er y stoyl-reeoil, as gys yn Eayn son dy bragh as dy bragh.

And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

14

As dooyrt ny kiare cretooryn, Amen. As huitt ny kiare shanstyryn as feed sheese as hug ad ooashley dasyn ta bio son dy bragh as dy bragh.

And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
