< Revelation 5 >
1 I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a book written inside and outside, sealed shut with seven seals.
Kangi nikalola chitabu muchiwoko cha kulyela cha mwenuyo mweatamili pachigoda cha unkosi, chene chayandikwi mugati na kuvala na kudindwa kwa munemu wenuwo na kudindwa kwa minemu saba? Vidindilu vya mnemu.
2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to break its seals?”
Nikalola mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga mweavi na makakala ikemela kwa lwami luvaha, “Yani mweiyidakiliwa kugagandula chidindilu chitabu chenicho?”
3 No one in heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the book or to look in it.
Nambu avi lepi mundu yoyoha kunani kwa Chapanga amala pamulima amala pandima mweahotwili kudindula chitabu icho amala mweahotwili kuchilola mugati.
4 Then I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the book or to look in it.
Hinu nene navembili neju ndava muni avi lepi mundu mweayidakiliwi kuchidindula, amala kuchilola mugati.
5 One of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Behold, the Lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome: he who opens the book and its seven seals.”
Kangi mmonga wa vagogo vala akanijovela, “Kotoka kuvemba! Lola Lihimba wa likabila la Yuda chiveleku cha Daudi, ahotwili. Mwene ihotola kugagandula vidindilu saba vya chitabu chenicho.”
6 I saw in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.
Kangi nikalola pagati ya chigoda cha Mwanalimbelele ayimili, atindilwi kila pandi na vala viumbi wumi mcheche na vagogo vala. Mwanalimbele uyo awonikini ngati ahinjiwi. Avili na mang'elu saba na mihu saba, ndi mipungu saba ya Chapanga zezapelikwi kila pandu pamulima.
7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
Mwanalimbelele akahamba, akatola chitabu chila kuhuma muchiwoko cha kulyela cha yula mweatamili pachigoda cha unkosi.
8 Now when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
Bahapo peamali kutola chitabu chenicho, vala viumbi wumi mcheche pamonga na vala vagogo ishilini na mcheche vakagwa chakukupama palongolo ya Mwanalimbelele. Kila mmonga avili na kanjeke na nkeve wa zahabu wewamemili ubani na, ndi mayupu ga vandu va Chapanga.
9 They sang a new song, saying, “You are worthy to take the book and to open its seals, for you were killed, and bought us for God with your blood out of every tribe, language, people, and nation,
Hinu, vakayimba lunyimbu ulu lwa mupya, “Veve wiyidakiliwa kuchitola chitabu chenicho na kudindula vidindilu vyaki. Ndava muni veve uhinjiwi, na kwa ngasi yaku umsangwili Chapanga witu vandu kuhuma kila likabila, luga na lukolo vandu va kila mulima langi ya kila mundu.
10 and made us kings and priests to our God; and we will reign on the earth.”
Uvahengili unkosi wa vamteta vamhengela Chapanga witu, vene yati vilongosa mulima.”
11 I looked, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders. The number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands,
Panayendalili kulola, nikayuwana lwami lwa vamitumu va kunani kwa Chapanga vamahele neju, vangavalangika. Vayimili kutindila chigoda cha unkosi, na viumbi wumi mcheche na vala vagogo,
12 saying with a loud voice, “Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing!”
vakajova kwa lwami luvaha: “Mwanalimbelele mweahinjiwi ayidakiliwi kupokela, uhotola vindu vyamahele na luhala na makakala na ukulu ulumba na utopesa.”
13 I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, for the ages (aiōn ) of the ages (aiōn )! Amen!"
Nikayuwana viumbi vyoha kunani kwa Chapanga na pamulima na pahi ya mulima na nyanja, viumbi vyoha pamulima vikajova: “Kwa mwene mweitama pachigoda cha unkosi na kwa Mwanalimbelele, ivya ulumba na utopela na ukulu na unkosi na makakala magono goha gangali mwishu.” (aiōn )
14 The four living creatures said, "Amen!" Then the elders fell down and worshiped.
Vala viumbi wumi mcheche vakajova, “Ena!” Na vala vagogo vakagwa chakukupama, vakagundama.
