Chapter 19 of Revelation—New World Translation (NWT)

  1. ¶ After these things I heard what was as a loud voice of a great crowd in heaven.1 They said: “Praise Jah, YOU people![a]2 The salvation3 and the glory and the power belong to our God,[b]4
  2. because his judgments are true and righteous.[c]5 For he has executed judgment upon the great harlot[d] who corrupted the earth with her fornication, and he[e] has avenged the blood of his slaves at her hand.”6
  3. And right away for the second time they said: “Praise Jah, YOU people![f]7 And the smoke from her goes on ascending forever and ever.”8
  4. ¶ And the twenty-four elders[g]9 and the four living creatures10 fell down and worshiped God seated11 upon the throne, and said: “Amen! Praise Jah,12 YOU people!”[h]
  5. ¶ Also, a voice issued forth from the throne and said: “Be praising our God, all YOU his slaves,13 who fear him, the small ones and the great.”14
  6. ¶ And I heard what was as a voice of a great crowd and as a sound of many[i] waters and as a sound of heavy thunders. They said: “Praise Jah,15 YOU people,[j] because Jehovah[k] our[l] God, the Almighty,16 has begun to rule as king.17
  7. Let us rejoice and be overjoyed, and let us give him the glory,18 because the marriage19 of the Lamb has arrived20 and his wife has prepared herself.21
  8. Yes, it has been granted to her to be arrayed in bright, clean, fine linen, for the fine linen stands for the righteous acts of the holy ones.”22
  9. ¶ And he tells me: “Write: Happy are those invited[m]23 to the evening meal of the Lamb’s marriage.”[n]24 Also, he tells me: “These are the true sayings of God.”25
  10. At that I fell down before his feet to worship him.26 But he tells me: “Be careful! Do not do that!27 All I am is a fellow slave of you and of your brothers who have the work of witnessing to Jesus.28 Worship God;29 for the bearing witness[o] to Jesus is what inspires[p] prophesying.”[q]30
  11. ¶ And I saw the heaven opened, and, look! a white horse.31 And the one seated upon it is called[r] Faithful32 and True,33 and he judges and carries on war in righteousness.34
  12. His eyes are a fiery flame,35 and upon his head are many diadems.36 He has a name37 written that no one knows but he himself,
  13. and he is arrayed with an outer garment sprinkled with blood,38 and the name he is called is The Word39 of God.
  14. Also, the armies that were in heaven were following him on white horses, and they were clothed in white, clean, fine linen.
  15. And out of his mouth there protrudes a sharp long sword,40 that he may strike the nations with it, and he will shepherd them with a rod of iron.41 He treads too the winepress42 of the anger of the wrath of God43 the Almighty.
  16. And upon his outer garment, even upon his thigh, he has a name written, King of[s] kings and Lord of lords.44
  17. ¶ I saw also an angel standing in the sun, and he cried out with a loud voice and said to all the birds45 that fly in midheaven: “Come here, be gathered together to the great evening meal of God,
  18. that YOU may eat the fleshy46 parts of kings and the fleshy parts of military commanders[t] and the fleshy parts of strong men47 and the fleshy parts of horses48 and of those seated upon them, and the fleshy parts of all, of freemen as well as of slaves and of small ones and great.”
  19. ¶ And I saw the wild beast49 and the kings50 of the earth and their armies gathered together to wage the war51 with the one seated on the horse52 and with his army.
  20. And the wild beast53 was caught, and along with it the false prophet54 that performed in front of it the signs55 with which he misled those who received the mark56 of the wild beast and those who render worship to its image.57 While still alive, they both were hurled into the fiery lake that burns with sulphur.58
  21. But the rest were killed off with the long sword of the one seated on the horse,59 which [sword] proceeded out of his mouth.60 And all the birds61 were filled62 from the fleshy parts of them.63

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

    When i do read some comments and seeing that its the same people that are supposed to be called believers but are talking ill of other denominations, it hurts. Let us all remember that We should judge not

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
