The Bible

1

As honnick mee, tra doshil yn Eayn yn chied seal as cheayll mee, myr feiyr taarnag, fer jeh ny kiare cretooryn, gra, Tar, as cur-my-ner.

And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.

2

As yeeagh mee, as cur-my-ner, cabbyl bane, as va bow echeysyn va ny hoie er, as va attey er ny choyrt da, as hie eh magh lesh barriaght, as dy gheddyn barriaght.

And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.

3

As tra v'eh er vosley yn nah seal cheayll mee yn nah chretoor gra, Tar, as cur-my-ner.

And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.

4

As hie magh cabbyl elley va jiarg; as va pooar er ny choyrt dasyn va ny hoie er, dy ghoaill shee ersooyl voish y thalloo, as dy jinnagh yn derrey yeh coyrt yn jeh elley dy baase: as va cliwe mooar er ny choyrt da.

And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.

5

As tra v'eh er vosley yn trass seal, cheayll mee yn trass chretoor gra, Tar, as cur-my-ner. As yeeagh mee, as honnick mee cabbyl doo; as v'echeysyn va markiagh er piyr dy veihaghyn ayns e laue.

And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.

6

As cheayll mee coraa veih mastey ny kiare cretooryn, gra, Towse dy churnaght son ping, as three towseyn dy oarn son ping as ny jean aggair da'n ooil as y feeyn.

And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.

7

As tra v'eh er vosley yn chiarroo seal, cheayll mee coraa yn chiarroo chretoor gra, Tar, as cur-my-ner.

And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.

8

As yeeagh mee, cur-my-ner, cabbyl banee; as va ennym yn varkiaght v'er, yn Baase, as yn oaie geiyrt er: as va pooar currit daue harrish y chiarroo ayrn jeh'n thalloo, dy varroo lesh y chliwe, as lesh gortey, as lesh baase, as lesh beïyn feïe y thallooin.

And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.

9

As tra v'eh er vosley yn wheiggoo seal, honnick mee fo'n altar ny anmeenyn ocsyn v'er ny choyrt dy baase son goo Yee, as son yn eanish dymmyrk ad.

And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:

10

As deïe ad lesh ard-choraa, gra, Caïd, O Hiarn, casherick as firrinagh, nagh vel uss briwnys as goaill cooilleeney son yn uill ain er fir-vaghee yn thallooin?

And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?

11

As va coamraghyn gial er ny choyrt da dagh unnane oc, as ve er ny ghra roo, dy row ad dy ghoaill fea foast son tammylt, derrey veagh traa nyn sheshaghyn-sharvaant myrgeddin, as nyn mraaraghyn va dy hurranse baase myr ren adsyn, cooilleenit.

And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.

12

As honnick mee tra doshil eh yn cheyoo seal, as cur-my-ner, va craa mooar thallooin ayn, as haink y ghrian dy ve doo myr aanrit-sack geyshteenagh, as va'n eayst myr fuill:

And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13

As huitt rollageyn yn aer gys y thalloo, myr ta billey-figgagh tilgey e vess neuchooie, tra te criht lesh geay niartal

And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14

As hie'n aer ass shilley myr duillag lioar ta fillit; as va dy chooilley lieau as ellan scughit ass nyn undin:

And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

15

As ren reeaghyn y thallooin, as ny ard-gheiney, as ny berchee, as ny ard-chaptanyn, as ny deiney pooaral, as dy chooilley ghooinney ayns bondiaght, as ooilley ayns seyrsnys, ad-hene y ollaghey ayns ooigyn, as fo creggyn ny sleityn.

And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

16

As dooyrt ad rish ny sleityn as ny creggyn, Tuitt-jee orrin, as follee shin veih'n eddin echeysyn ta ny hoie er y stoyl-reeoil, as veih corree yn Eayn;

And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

17

Son ta laa mooar e yymmoose er jeet, as quoi oddys shassoo?

For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
