Chiunukuko 8
1 Mwanangondolo paŵakutwile chimatilo cha saba, kwinani kwaliji jii katema ka nusu saa.
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven, for about half an hour.
2 None naweni achikatumetume ŵa kwinani saba, aŵala ŵakwima paujo pa Akunnungu ali apegwilwe mapenga saba.
And I saw the seven angels, who stood before God; and to them were given, seven trumpets.
3 “Nipele ŵaiche katumetume jwa kwinani jwine ni ŵajimi paujo pa chilisa akamulile cheteso cha sahabu. Ŵapegwilwe ubani wejinji kuti atyosye mbopesi pamo ni mapopelo ga ŵandu wose ŵa Akunnungu pachanya pa chilisa cha sahabu chachili paujo pa chitengu cha umwenye.
And another angel came and stood by the altar; and he held a golden censer: and much incense was given him, so that he might offer, with the prayers of all the saints, upon the golden altar before the throne.
4 Lyosi lya ubani wo pamo ni mapopelo ga ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu yakwesile paujo pa Akunnungu kutyochela mmakono ga katumetume jwa kwinani jwakwima paujo pa Akunnungu.
And the smoke of the incense of the prayers of the saints went up before God from the hand of the angel.
5 Nipele katumetume jwa kwinani jula ŵachijigele cheteso chila ni ŵachigumbesye mooto kutyochela pa chilisa, ni ŵachiponyisye cheteso pachilambo. Kwatyochele ilindimo ni njasi ni kumesya ni chindendemesi cha chilambo.
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire from the altar, and cast it upon the earth: and there were thunders, and lightnings, and voices, and an earthquake.
6 “Achikatumetume ŵa kwinani saba ŵaŵaliji ni mapenga saba ŵala ŵaliŵichile chile kugomba.
And the seven angels, who had the seven trumpets, prepared themselves to sound.
7 Katumetume jwa kwinani jwaandanda ŵagombile lipenga lyekwe. Pelepo kwatyochele ula ja maganga jewanganyiche ni mooto ni miasi, ni janyele mu chilambo. Liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu gagali yalumo mu chilambo lyatiniche ni mooto ni liunjili liine lya itela lyatiniche ni mooto, ni masamba gamaŵisi gose gatiniche ni mooto.
And the first sounded; and there was hail, and fire, which were mingled with water: and these were thrown upon the earth; and a third part of the earth was burned up, and a third part of the trees were burned, and all green grass was burned.
8 Nipele katumetume jwa kwinani jwaaŵili ŵagombile lipenga lyakwe. Ni chaponyekwe mu bahali chindu chachili mpela chitumbi chekulungwa chachikukolela mooto ni liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu gagali yalumo mmeesi ga bahali gasandwiche miasi.
And the second angel sounded, and, as it were a great mountain burning with fire, was cast into the sea; and also a third part of the sea became blood.
9 Liunjili limo lya maunjili gatatu gagali yalumo ga yepanganyikwe yaili mu bahali lyawile, liunjili limo lya maunjili gatatu ga ngalaŵa lyajonasiche.
And a third part of all the creatures in the sea, that had life, died; and a third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 Nipele katumetume jwa kwinani jwaatatu ŵagombile lipenga lyakwe. Ni ndondwa jajikulungwa jijakolelaga mpela lumuli jagwile kutyochela kwiunde, ni jagwilile mu liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu ga sulo ni pa iliŵa ya meesi.
And the third angel sounded, and there fell from heaven a star, burning like a lamp; and it fell upon a third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of water.
11 Ndondwa jila jaŵilanjikwe, “Uŵaŵe.” Ni liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu ga meesi gaŵaŵile, ni ŵandu ŵajinji uŵang'wele gele meesi go ŵawile ligongo lya kuŵaŵa kwa meesi.
And the name of the star was called Wormwood; and a third part of the waters became wormwood; and many persons died from the waters, because they were bitter.
12 Nipele katumetume jwa kwinani jwa ncheche ŵagombile lipenga lyakwe. Ni liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu gagali yalumo mu lyuŵa lyaputikwe chipi, ni kuitenda lwesi ni ndondwa itajikwe chipi. Ni liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu ga katema ka muusi lyatajikwe chipi, ni liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu ga katema ka chilo lyatajikwe chipi.
And the fourth angel sounded, and a third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so that the third part of them were dark, and they became dark; and the day did not give light for the third part of it, and the night in like manner.
13 Nipele panaliji nkupunda kulola, nampilikene kapungu jumo juŵagulukaga mwinani nnope achiŵechetaga kwa liloŵe lyekulungwa achitiji, “Ulaje! Ulaje! Ulaje kwa ŵelewo ŵakutama mchilambo, ligongo mapenga gane ga achikatumetume ŵa kwinani ŵatatu gali chiŵela nganagombe!”
And I saw and heard an eagle, which flew in the midst, and it had a tail of blood, while it said, with a loud voice: Woe, woe, to them who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining sounds of the trumpets of the three angels, who are to sound.
