Chiyubunuzyo 2
1 “Kumu ngelo wambungano yamu Efeso lemba boobu: Majwi ayooyo ujisi nyenyeezi zili musanu azibili mukuboko kwakwe kwalulyo alimwi ooyo weenda aakati kazibikilo zyamalampi aangolda zili musanu azibili,
“To the angel of the assembly in Ephesus write: “He who holds the seven stars in his right hand, he who walks among the seven golden lamp stands says these things:
2 “Ndilizi milimo yako, kubeleka changuzu alubo alukakatilo lwako, akuti tubotelwi ababi, pesi wabasunka aabo balyaamba kuti mba Apositolo pesi kabatali mbabo pe, alimwi wabajana kabali basikubeja.
“I know your works, and your toil and perseverance, and that you can’t tolerate evil men, and have tested those who call themselves emissaries, and they are not, and found them false.
3 Ulakakatila chakulansya moyo akunyampula zina lyangu, alimwi tukatede pe.
You have perseverance and have endured for my name’s sake, and have not grown weary.
4 Pesi biyo nchindaamba aanduwe nchakuti wakasiya luyando lwako lutaanzi.
But I have this against you, that you left your first love.
5 Kuyeeya aboobo kuzwa aawo mpuwakawida. Sanduka akuchita zintu eezyo zwzkachita lutaanzi. Kunze kwakuti usanduke, ndiyoboola kulinduwe alimwi ndiyoogwisya chibikilo chalampi aabusena bwacho.
Remember therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I am coming to you swiftly, and will move your lamp stand out of its place, unless you repent.
6 Pesi uli aacheechi: Usulide nchito zyaba Nikkolayiti, eezyo aandime nzindisulide.
But this you have, that you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
7 Akube kuti ooyo uli aakutwi, amvwe muuya nzyaambila mbungano. Kuli yooyo uzunda ndiyoomupa cheelelo chakuti akalye kumusamu wabuumi, ooyo uli mupaladayizi ya Leza.”
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes I will give to eat from the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of my God.
8 “Kuli Angelo wambungano yaku Similina lemba boobu: 'Majwa ayooyo mutaanzi amamanino, ooyo wakalifwide pesi waba muumi lubo:
“To the angel of the assembly in Smyrna write: “The first and the last, who was dead, and has come to life says these things:
9 “Ndilizi mapenzi aako abuchete bwako, pesi ulimuvubi. Ndilizi kuupawupa kwabaabo balyaamba kuti mba Juda, pesi tabali mbabo pe. Mbachikombelo cha Satani.
“I know your works, oppression, and your poverty (but you are rich), and the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
10 Utayoowi mapenzi aayo nguutafwabe kulanga! Simwaaba waamba kuwalilwa bamwi banu muntolongo kuchitila kuti mukasunkwe, alimwi muyoopenzegwa kwamazuba aali kkumi. Kusyomeka kusikila kulufu, alimwi ndiyookupa musini wabuumi.
Don’t be afraid of the things which you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested; and you will have oppression for ten days. Be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.
11 Ooyo ulaakutwi: ngamvwe muuya nzyaamba ku mbungano. Ooyo uzunda taakwe kuyoochiswa pe kulufu lwabili
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. He who overcomes won’t be harmed by the second death.
12 “Kuli Angelo wambungano yamu Pegamamu lemba boobu: 'Mjwi ayooyo ujisi panga libosya koonse koonse:
“To the angel of the assembly in Pergamum write: “He who has the sharp two-edged sword says these things:
13 “Ndilizi ooko nkukkala ooko chuuno cha Satani nkuchibede. Pesi ndijisilidi kuzina lyangu. Ndilizi kuti tulukakide pe lusyomo lwako kulindime, nikuba mumazuba a Antipasi kamboni wangu, uusyomekede kuli ndime, ooyo wakajayigwa akati kanu, ooko Satani nkwakkala.
“I know your works and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is. You hold firmly to my name, and didn’t deny my faith in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
14 Pesi ndili aazintu ziche biyo atala anduwe: Ulaabo nkuko ooko bamwi bajisilidi kunjiisyo ya Bbalamu, bakayiisya Bbalaki kuwaala chilebyo kunembo lyabana ba Isilayilikuti balye zyakulyazipiliidwe kumizimu akuli basimamambe.
But I have a few things against you, because you have there some who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to throw a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit sexual immorality.
15 Munzila njiyonya eeyo, ulaabo alimwi bamwi bajisilidi kunjisyo yaba Nikolayitani.
So also you likewise have some who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
16 Sanduka, aboobo! kuti waleka, ndiyoofwambaana kuboola kulinduwe, ndiyootanguna nkondo ambabo apanga mumulomo wangu.
Repent therefore, or else I am coming to you quickly and I will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.
17 Ooyo ulaakutwi, ngamvwe eezyo muuya nzyaamba kumbungano, kuli ooyo uzunda ndiyoomupa bbwe lituba lili azina pya lilembedwealindilyo aalindilyo, eelyo zina litakwe ulizi pesi ooyo alike ulitambula”
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows but he who receives it.
18 “Kuli Angelo wambangano yamu Tiyatila lemba boobu: 'Aaya majwi aa Mwana wa Leza, ooyo uli ameso ali mbuli mabangabanga aamulilo azituta zyakwe mbuli mukuba upakulidwe:
“To the angel of the assembly in Thyatira write: “The Son of God, who has his eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet are like burnished brass, says these things:
19 “Ndilizi milimu yako: luyando alusyomo lwako ambukutawuka alukakatilo chakulamya moyo. Ndilizi kuti eezyo nzuwakachita muchiindi chayina ziinda nzuwakavhita lutaanz.
“I know your works, your love, faith, service, patient endurance, and that your last works are more than the first.
20 Pesi ndili acheechi atala aanduwe: Walekeleela mwanakazi Jezebbeli, ooyo ulyaamba kuti musinsimi kwiinda munjiisyo yakwe weena balanda bangu bumambi akulya zyakulya zyakapayilwa kuzikozyano.
But I have this against you, that you tolerate your woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. She teaches and seduces my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat things sacrificed to idols.
21 Ndakamupa chiindi chakusanduka, pesi tayandi pe kusanduka kumamambe aakwe.
I gave her time to repent, but she refuses to repent of her sexual immorality.
22 Laanga! ndiyoomuwalila abulo bwa mwamatenda abaabo bachita bumambi anguwe mumafwabi mapati, kunze kwakuti basanduke kunchito zyabo.
Behold, I will throw her and those who commit adultery with her into a bed of great oppression, unless they repent of her works.
23 Ndiyoobawuma akubajaya bana bakwe, alimwi zyoonse mbungano ziyooziba kuti ndime nindilinguluula mizeezo amoy. Ndiyoopaumwi awumwi mbuli nchito zyanu.
I will kill her children with Death, and all the assemblies will know that I am he who searches the minds and hearts. I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.
24 Pesi kuli nibamwi banu boonse bali mu Tiyatila, kuli woonse utajatisyi njiisyo mpawo katazi eezyo bamwi nzibaamba kuti zintu zisisikene zya Satani -kulinduwe ndaamba kuti tandibiki pe aambi makani alinduwe.'
But to you I say, to the rest who are in Thyatira—as many as don’t have this teaching, who don’t know what some call ‘the deep things of Satan’—to you I say, I am not putting any other burden on you.
25 Nikuba boobo kojatiliila mpawo aawo kusikila ndiboole.
Nevertheless, hold that which you have firmly until I come.
26 Ooyo uzunda akubamba milimu yangu kusikila kumamanino, kuli yooyo ndiyoomupa nguzu aatala amisyobo yoonse.
He who overcomes, and he who keeps my works to the end, to him I will give authority over the nations.
27 Uyoobendelezya ankoli yalubulo, mbuli nongo zyabulongo uyoozipwasuula kuba zipanzi.
He will rule them with a rod of iron, shattering them like clay pots, as I also have received of my Father;
28 Mbuli mbundakatambula kuli Taata, Andime ndiyoomupa nyenyeezi ntanda yakubuchedeo.
and I will give him the morning star.
29 Ooyo ulaakutwi, ngamvwe muuya nzyaamba kumbungano.
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
