Revelation 1
1 Wa yi hinhran u Yesu Kristi wa Irji nnowu ndu tsro ba granma ikpye waa a tie weiwiere a. A tru meleka ma ye ni Yohanna ye nhra wa.
This is the revelation of Jesus Christ that God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place. He made it known by sending his angel to his servant John.
2 Yohanna ahla lantre Rji nda hla u Yseu Kristi u kyi wa atoh wawumbambawu.
John testified about the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ, all the things that he saw.
3 Indi uluw ahi wa akra totsuma ma ngbangban me'a ma kii biwa mba tsi wo tre waatre nda kpa nyemen ni kpe wa mba ha nimi into a he whewhir.
Blessed is the one who reads aloud this prophecy, and those who listen to the words of this prophecy and who obey what is written in it, because the time is near.
4 Ime, Yohanna, hi ni Ikilisiyoyi tagban wa mba he nigbu mba asiya; tsitsi hi niyi ni sikpa ni wa ahe tsizan, wa he ni tsenmu, wawu ni ye ni shi-shi ruhohin tagban wa mba he ni kgbu kursiyin ma.
John, to the seven churches in Asia: May grace be to you and peace from the one who is, and who was, and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne,
5 Arji ni Yesu Kristi wa mba kpanyemen ni wu, iver mumla wa alude nimi mben; wa atu chu bi gbugbu ni wa ni sonta. nda situ ihuwo ni la bi latre gbu ni iyinman.
and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To the one who loves us and has released us from our sins by his blood—
6 Aleta te bi chu firistoci bi Rji ma ni teman. ndidin, ukpele wi he ai wu tun nitse ahemen (amin) (aiōn g165)
he has made us a kingdom, priests for his God and Father—to him be the glory and the power forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Nya atsiye nimi kpan, shishi nde mbato ni nde biwa tugbu ni njigba ndi bi gbugbu pepemen mbayin niwu, ahemen (amin).
Look, he is coming with the clouds; every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn because of him. Yes, Amen.
8 Ameyin mumudin ni klekle Irji treme wawu zizan; wa ahe tu nitsemu, wawu niyen, wawu ni kpekple wawu.
“I am the alpha and the omega,” says the Lord God, “the one who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.”
9 Eme, Yohanna, rayinbin, wa ahe niyin ni mi iyabin, ni son ndidi ni fusroun waube ni Yesu. Igbulu mba wambayo Badmusa, ni tre Rji wa ala ni tu Yesu.
I, John—your brother and the one who shares with you in the suffering and kingdom and patient endurance that are in Jesus—was on the island called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony about Jesus.
10 Mi he nimi Ruhu nifi u Rji, ndi wo lanri ni kwugon nu na ijun.
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day. I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet.
11 Ala ha ikpe wawu to rinu vuvu; nde tru hi ni Ikilisiyoyin tagban mba; wa ahe Afisus; ni Simirna, waahe ni Tayatira, wa ahe ni Sardisu, waahe ni Filadalfiya, ni waahe ni Laudikiya.
It said, “Write what you see in a book, and send it to the seven churches—to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamum, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”
12 Mi ya ndi atsi tre nimen, wa mi ya miton ilu fitila tagban ni ngbugbu klomba.
I turned around to see whose voice was speaking to me, and as I turned I saw seven golden lampstands.
13 Nimi ilu nde ri hena ker nde a kri ni gla gagloma hi ni zanma, alakpa ni zinariya nitsan ma.
In the middle of the lampstands there was one like a son of man, wearing a long robe that reached down to his feet and a golden sash around his chest.
14 Ituma ni fukpa kye na fu fu rjurju na men atsi gji ni kpama; shishi ahe na wau.
His head and hair were as white as wool—as white as snow—and his eyes were like a flame of fire.
15 Izama mba kpa, mbahe na klalu wa mba la niwu, atsi glo na man ni nei.
His feet were like polished bronze, like bronze that had been refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of many rushing waters.
16 Nuwo kota ma agji tsitse tangba ni nyuma agji gjin e. nyu ha shishi ma tsi kpa na rji.
He had seven stars in his right hand, and a sword with two sharp edges was coming out of his mouth. His face was shining like the sun at its strongest.
17 Wa mi tori mi jeku nza ma na kgbu nde. akawo ma ikita san ni tu mu nda la, na ti tsitsirena, imee mi mumle ni nklekle.
When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He placed his right hand on me and said, “Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last,
19 A he nawa, ha kpe wawu to igpi waahe zizan, waani he ni kwogon waujin.
Therefore write down what you have seen, what is now, and what will take place after this.
20 Mi tu ma'ana, ni tsitse tagban wa mba to niwo kotama, ni whirji wa mbalo. Fitila tagban u Zinariya. tsitse tagban mba malaiku (pastoci) bi Ikilisiya tagban, whi rji mba lo fitilu tagban mba Ikilisiyoyi tagban mba.
As for the hidden meaning about the seven stars you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.”
