1 Bangʼe ne angʼicho mi aneno dhoot moyaw e polo. To dwol machalo gi turumbete mane asewinjo mokwongo kawuoyo koda cha nowachona niya, “Bi malo ka mondo anyisi gik mabiro timore bangʼ wechegi.”
After these things I, [John], saw [in the vision that] there was a door open in heaven. The one whose voice was like [SIM] a [loud] trumpet, the one [who had spoken to me] previously, said [to me], “Come up here! I will show you events that must happen later.”
2 Roho nopongʼa mana gisano mi aneno kom duongʼ e polo ka ngʼato obetie.
Immediately I experienced that [God’s] Spirit [was specially controlling me]. There was a throne there in heaven, and on the throne someone was sitting [and ruling].
3 Ngʼat mane obetie komno ne kite nenore ka kite ma nengogi tek miluongo ni jaspa gi sardus. Kit lihudu mar koth man-gi kido machalo emerald ne olworo kom duongʼno.
He [shone] like [SIM] a [brilliant crystalline] jasper [jewel] and like a [brilliant red] carnelian [jewel]. Around the throne was a rainbow that [shone like a brilliant green] emerald [jewel].
4 Kom duongʼno ne olwor gi kombe moko piero ariyo gangʼwen ma jodongo piero ariyo gangʼwen obedoe. Ne girwakore gi lewni marochere to e wigi negirwake osimbe mag dhahabu.
Around the throne there were 24 other thrones. On these thrones 24 elders were [sitting]. They were wearing [pure] white garments and had golden crowns on their heads.
5 Polo ne mil kendo mor kariadore koa e kom duongʼno, E nyim kom duongʼno ne nitie teyni abiriyo maliel. Magi e roho abiriyo mag Nyasaye.
From the throne there came lightning and rumblings and thundering. Seven torches of fire were burning in front of the throne. Those [represent] the Spirit of God, who has all kinds of [power] (OR, who is [also] symbolized as seven spirits).
6 Bende e nyim kom duongʼno ne nitie gimoro manenore ka nam machalo gi kio mar rangʼi, to orieny ka pi. E dier komno tir gi alworane ne nitie gik moko angʼwen mangima man-gi wenge mangʼeny yo ka nyimgi kod yo ka tokgi.
In front of the throne [there was what looked] like an ocean [made of] glass. It was [clear], like crystal. On each of the four sides of the throne there was a living [creature]. Each one was covered with eyes in front and behind.
7 Gima ngima mokwongo ne chalo gi sibuor, mar ariyo ne chalo gi nyarwath, mar adek ne lela wangʼe chalo gi mar dhano, to mar angʼwen ne chalo gi ongo mafuyo.
The first living [creature] was like a lion. The second living [creature] was like an ox. The third living [creature] had a face like a man's face. The fourth living creature was like an eagle that was flying.
8 Moro ka moro kuom gik mangimago ne nigi bwombe auchiel kendo ne gin gi wenge mathoth molworo dendgi nyaka e bwo bwombegi. Odiechiengʼ gi otieno duto negisiko kagiwacho niya,
Each of the four living [creatures] had six wings. They were covered with eyes, all around [their bodies] and under [their wings]. Day and night they continually [LIT] sing: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God, the Almighty One. He is the one who has always existed, who exists now, and who will always exist.
9 E seche duto ka gik mangimago nedwoko erokamano ka gipako kendo puoyo Jal mane obedo e kom duongʼ kendo mangima nyaka chiengʼ; (aiōn g165)
The living [creatures praise], honor [DOU], and thank the one who sits on the throne, the one who lives forever. (aiōn g165)
10 to jodongo piero ariyo gangʼwen-go ne podho e nyim ngʼat mobet e kom duongʼ ka gilamo Jal Mantie nyaka chiengʼ. Negibolo osimbegi e nyim kom duongʼ kagiwacho niya: (aiōn g165)
Whenever they do that, the 24 elders (prostrate themselves/kneel down) before the one who sits on the throne, and they worship him, the one who lives forever. They lay their crowns in front of the throne and sing: (aiōn g165)
11 “Yaye Ruodhwa kendo Nyasachwa, iwinjori yudo duongʼ gi pak kod teko, nimar nichweyo gik moko duto, kendo kuom dwaroni ne ochwegi, kendo gibedo mangima.”
Our(exc) Lord and God, you are worthy that all beings praise you, you are worthy that all beings honor you, and you are worthy that all beings acknowledge that you are the powerful one, because you alone created all things. Moreover, because you planned that they should exist, you created them, and so they exist.
