< Uruyan Yuhana 18 >

1 Na ile imone wakat vat uwa yene kan gono kadura Kutelle ntulsu cin dak nnuzu kitene kani. A wa di nin likara lidya, uye wa li kanang nin gongon mye.
AND after these things I saw an angel descending from heaven, having great authority; and the earth was enlightened by his glory.
2 A taa ntyet nin liwui lidya, abenle, “Udewu, udewu ubabalila udiyai a so kitin lisosin na gbergenu, kiti lisosin vat ti ruhu ti nanzang nin kiti lisosin vat kijin kuzenzen.
And he cried mightily with a great voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of demons, and the hold of every impure spirit, and the cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 Nipinpin ne vat nsono ntoro nzina mye na mina da ninghe tinana nayi. Ago nyii nasu uzina ninghe. Anan malesulesa nanya nyii so anan nimon na cara bara likara lisosin limang mye.”
Because all nations have drunk of the wine of the rage of her whoredom, and the kings of the earth have committed whoredom with her, and the merchants of the earth have been enriched by the excess of her profligate luxury.
4 Nlanza nlon liwui nnuzu ketene kani nworo, “Nuzun nanya mene, anit ning, bara i wa seru imemun inanzan mye.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come forth out of her, my people, that ye have no share in her sins, and that so ye may not receive of her plagues.
5 Alapi mye malkulu udu kitene kani, Kutelle nin katwa ka nanzan mye.
For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
6 Kurtunghe ku imon na ame na su anite, kurtwaghe ku tiba iman ile na ana kurtuz anite ku; nanya kakup ka na awa ketelin, ketelenghe ti ba.
Render to her as she also hath done to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she hath mingled mingle for her double.
7 Nafo na ana ghantin liti mye anin su mang, naghe gbardang uniu nin tunana naye. A woro nanya kibinai mye, 'Nsosin nafo ushono ngo; Na meng unan diru nlisari ba, na iwa yenu kibinai kisirnebai.
As much as she hath glorified herself, and rioted in luxury, so much torment and sorrow give her: because she hath said in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8 Bara nani imon inanzan mye ma se ghe: ukull, lisosin nayi asirne, nin kukpon. Ula ma liighe.”
Therefore in one hour shall all her plagues come, death, and mourning, and famine: and she shall be consumed with fire; because mighty is the Lord God, who judgeth her.
9 Agon yee na ina su uzina ninghe inani na nuzu insalin lanzun niliru ninghe ima gilu nin ghe i wa yene mcin nli nla mye din ghanju.
And the kings of the earth who have committed whoredom with her, and shared in her luxuries, shall bewail her, and lament bitterly over her, when they see the smoke of her burning,
10 I ma yisinupiit, idin lanzu fiyu nniyu mye, mbenlu, “Kash, kash udu kipin ki diya, Babila, kipin llikara! Nanyan kube kurun uniu fe ndaa.”
standing afar off through terror of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that strong city! how in one hour is thy judgment come upon thee!
11 Anan malesulesu nye gila nin lisosin nayi asirne bara ame, bara na umong ma kuru asere imon nlesu mye tutung ba-
And the merchants of the earth wept and wailed over her: because no man buyeth their merchandise any more:
12 Imon lesu ni zinariyanin, nin nazurfa, nin natola nikurfung, nin luu-luu, nin liniw ukpekpet, nin nimon nmyein nafo, nin siliki, nin malufi vat nin naca nikurfuung, nin vat nishik nicaut, nin fikoro fishine, nin fikoro fisirne nin mabil,
the merchandise of gold and of silver, and of precious stones, and of pearl, and of fine linen, and of purple, and of silk, and of scarlet, and every sweet scented wood, and every ivory vessel, and every vessel of most precious wood, and of gold, and of iron, and of marble,
13 nin fikoro, nin animon, nin turare, nin mai kuya kunang, nin lubar, nin alkama, nin nina, nin nakam, nin nibark, nin karusa, nin nacin, nin ti lai na nit.
and cinnamon, and perfumes, and myrrh, and libanum, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies, and the souls of men.
14 Ku mat na ca ko na una din nin serwe i wulu fi. Vat mmang fe nin nimon fo figiri i nana kiti fe, na ima kuru ise inin tutung ba.
And the delicate autumnal fruit of thy soul’s earner longing is gone from thee, and all things that are dainty and that are splendid are departed from thee, and never shalt thou find them any more.
15 Ale na i wa din nlesu nile imone se ikurfung kang bara usu mye yisina piit ninghe bara fiiyu nniyu mye, kuculu nin tiit nayi asirne.
The merchants of these things who enriched themselves by her, shall stand afar off through terror of her torment, weeping and wailing,
16 I ma woro, “Kash, kash nin kipin ki diya kane na ki wa su kuyuk nin ni ninoon icene, nanya nimon nmyein nafa, nin kye kidowome nin nizinariya, nin nimoon natuf nikurfung nin luu-luu.”
and saying, Alas, alas, the great city, which was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and overlaid with gold, and precious stones, and pearls! how in one hour is so great wealth laid waste!
17 Nanya kube kurum vat nilele imoon nikurfunghe nana. Vat nanan con njirgi myeen, vat nanang cin nanya njirgi myeen, nin na le na i din sessu imonli nanyan kurawa ku dundya we, yisina piit.
And every pilot, and all the crew in the ships, and the mariners, and as many as exercise their labours on the sea, stood afar off,
18 I taa ntest na iyene incin nli nla mye. I woro, “Kiyeme kipinari masin fo ka kipin ki dya?”
and cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What is like that great city!
19 i tiza lidao nidowo mene, inin taa nteet, ning myiziin mi gbagbai nin lisosin tiyoom, “Kash, kash udu kipin kidya kane ki kaa na vat nale na i di nin tijirgin myen kurawa kudin dya nda se ikurfun ku unuzun dukiya mye. Bara na nanya kubi kurum ida nanza ghe.”
And they cast dust upon their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great city, by which all who occupied ships on the sea were enriched from her opulence! how in one hour is she made desolate!
20 “Taan liburi liboo bara ameh, kitene kani, anung anit alau, anang kaduran Yesu, nin nanan liru nin nuu Kutelle, bara na Kutelle nda nin mawucu wuce mye lite mye!”
Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye the holy apostles and prophets, for God hath adjudged her to punishment, for the judgment inflicted on you by her.
21 Unan katwa Kutelle yira litala nafo litala tiyazung a too linin nanya kurawa kudya we, a benle, “Nanya nlo libau ule, uBabila, kipin kidya, i ma fillu kutyein nin tinana nayi na i ma kuru i yene tutung ba.
And a mighty angel took up a stone as a great milestone, and cast it into the sea, saying, So with rapidity shall the great city Babylon be hurled into the deep, and never shall be found more.
22 Ti wui nanang foo nidowo, anang navu, anan pee nishiriya, nin nanang wulsu na langtung na i ma kuru ilanza nani. Nanya fe ba na i ma kuru i se anang makeke nimon nanya fe tutung ba. Na ima kuru i lanzan tiyazun nanya fe tutung ba.
And the sound of harpers, and musicians, and flute players, and trumpeters, shall never be heard in thee more; and no artificer of whatever trade shall be found in thee any more; and the sound of a milstone shall be heard in thee no more;
23 Nkanan nla ma bicu na ima kuru iyene mining tutung ba. Liwui na wanlapese nang na lese na ima kuru ilanza tutun ba, bara na imoon nlesu fe wadi ashoono na goo nyii, nin myin uwa rusuzu nani ning niyuu fe.
and never shall the light of a lamp shine in thee any more; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard in thee no more: because thy merchants were the grandees of the earth; because all nations were deluded by thy magical incantation.
24 Nanya mye i wa se nmyii nanang liru ning nuu Kutelle nin nanit a lau, ning myii na le na i wa mulsu nani nanya nyii.”
And in her was found the blood of prophets, and holy men, and of all who have been slaughtered upon the earth.
