Chiyubunuzyo 15

1 Lino ndabona chimwi chitondeezyo mujuiu, nkachili chipati mpawo kachigambya: Bakali bangelo bakali musanu ababili nkabajisi zipenzyo zili musanu azibili, ezizipenzyo nzyakumamaninsizyo, mulinzizyo bukkali bwa Leza buno maninide.

Then I saw another portent in the heavens — a great and marvellous portent — seven angels with the seven last Curses; because with them the Wrath of God is ended.

2 Ndakabona chimwi chili mbuuli lwizi lwachi boniboni chivwelene aamulilo. Lino aabo bakayimvwi mbembabo bakazundide chinyama achikkozyanisyo chacho mpawo amweelwe wazina lyach. Bakalijisi tuntumbwa ntubakapedwe a Leza.

Then I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mixed with fire; and, standing by this sea of glass, holding the harps of God, I saw those who had come victorious out of the conflict with the Beast and its image and the number that formed its name.

3 Bakali kwiimba lwiimbo lwa Mozesi, mulanda wa Leza, mpawo alwimbo lwaMwana wa mbelele: “nkupati akugambya kuchita kwenu, Mwami Leza, singuzu. Zililuleme mpawo nzyakasimpe nzila zyanu, Mwami wamanyika.

They are singing the song of Moses, the Servant of God, and the song of the Lamb — ‘Great and marvellous are thy deeds, O Lord, our God, the Almighty. Righteous and true are thy ways, Eternal King.

4 Ngwani uutakuyoow, Mwam, akulemekezya zina lyako? Nkambo nduwe olike usalala. Woonse maasi ayosika akuyokukkomba kunembo lyako nkaambo bululami bwako anchito zyayubununwa.”

Who will not reverence and praise thy Name, O Lord? Thou alone art holy! All nations will come and worship before thee, for thy judgments have become manifest.’

5 Musule lyazintu ezi ndakalanga, mpawo chikkombelo nkakuli chilawo chabumboni chakali julidwe mujulu.

After this I saw that the inmost shrine of the Tabernacle of Revelation in Heaven was opened,

6 Kuzwa muchikombelo kwakabbuda bangelo balimusanu ababili nkajisi zipenzyo zili musanu azibili. Kabasamide zisamo zituba zingayima, alimwi balaangide aatwango twabo intambo zyangolida.

and out of it came the seven angels with the seven Curses. They were adorned with precious stones, pure and bright, and had golden girdles round their breasts.

7 Umwi wabanyama bane bapona wakapa kubangelo bali musanu ababili zibikilo zyangolida zizwide bukali bwa Leza, kuli yoyo upona kwa lyoonse akutamani. (aiōn g165)

One of the four Creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls, filled with the Wrath of God who lives for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)

8 Chikombelo chakali zwide abuusi buzwa kubulemu bwa Leza akunguzu zyakwe. Takwe wakali kukkonzya kunjila kusikila zipenzyo zilimusanu azibili zyabangelo bali musanu ababili bamaninina.

‘The Temple was filled with smoke from the Glory’ and Majesty of God; and no one could enter the Temple, until the seven Curses inflicted by the seven angels were at an end.
