< Revelation 16 >
1 Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, “Go, pour out on the earth the seven bowls of God’s wrath.”
Ningĩ ngĩigua mũgambo mũnene ũkiuma thĩinĩ wa hekarũ, naguo ũkĩĩra araika acio mũgwanja atĩrĩ, “Thiĩi, mũkonorerie thĩ mbakũri icio mũgwanja cia mangʼũrĩ ma Ngai.”
2 So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and loathsome, malignant sores broke out on those who had the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.
Nake mũraika wa mbere agĩthiĩ akĩonoreria mbakũri yake thĩ, nacio ironda njũru mũno irĩ ruo ikĩgĩa andũ arĩa maarĩ na rũũri rwa nyamũ ĩyo, na arĩa maahooyaga mũhiano wayo.
3 And the second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it turned to blood like that of the dead, and every living thing in the sea died.
Nake mũraika wa keerĩ akĩonoreria mbakũri yake iria-inĩ rĩrĩa inene, narĩo iria rĩu rĩkĩgarũrũka rĩgĩtuĩka ta thakame ya mũndũ mũkuũ, nakĩo kĩndũ o gĩothe kĩarĩ muoyo iria-inĩ rĩu gĩgĩkua.
4 And the third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of water, and they turned to blood.
Ningĩ mũraika wa gatatũ akĩonoreria mbakũri yake njũũĩ-inĩ na ithima-inĩ cia maaĩ, nacio igĩtuĩka thakame.
5 And I heard the angel of the waters say: “Righteous are You, O Holy One, who is and was, because You have brought these judgments.
Ngĩcooka ngĩigua mũraika ũrĩa wathaga maaĩ akiuga atĩrĩ: “Wee ũrĩ na kĩhooto ũgĩtua matuĩro maya, Wee ũrĩa ũrĩ ho, na nowe warĩ ho, o Wee Mũtheru, tondũ wa gũtua ciira ũguo;
6 For they have spilled the blood of saints and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink, as they deserve.”
nĩgũkorwo nĩmaitĩte thakame ya andũ aku aamũre, na ya anabii, nawe nĩũmaheete thakame manyue ta ũrĩa magĩrĩirwo.”
7 And I heard the altar reply: “Yes, Lord God Almighty, true and just are Your judgments.”
Na ngĩigua kĩgongona gĩacookia atĩrĩ: “Ĩĩ nĩguo, Mwathani Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe, matuĩro maku nĩ ma ma, na nĩ ma kĩhooto.”
8 Then the fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was given power to scorch the people with fire.
Nake mũraika wa kana akĩonoreria mbakũri yake riũa-inĩ, narĩo riũa rĩkĩheo hinya wa gũcina andũ na mwaki.
9 And the people were scorched by intense heat, and they cursed the name of God, who had authority over these plagues; yet they did not repent and give Him glory.
Andũ magĩcinwo nĩ ũrugarĩ ũcio mũnene, nao magakĩrumaga rĩĩtwa rĩa Ngai ũcio warĩ na hinya wa gwatha mĩthiro ĩyo, no matiigana kwĩrira mamũgooce.
10 And the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness, and men began to gnaw their tongues in anguish
Mũraika wa gatano akĩonoreria mbakũri yake gĩtĩ-inĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa nyamũ ĩrĩa, naguo ũthamaki wayo ũkĩiyũra nduma. Nao andũ makĩĩrũma nĩmĩ nĩ ũndũ wa ruo,
11 and curse the God of heaven for their pains and sores; yet they did not repent of their deeds.
na makĩruma Ngai wa igũrũ nĩ ũndũ wa ruo rũrĩa maiguaga na nĩ ũndũ wa ironda iria maarĩ nacio, no matiigana kwĩrira nĩ ũndũ wa maũndũ marĩa meekĩte.
12 And the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings of the East.
Nake mũraika wa gatandatũ akĩonoreria mbakũri yake rũũĩ-inĩ rũrĩa rũnene rwa Farati, namo maaĩ maruo makĩhwa nĩguo athamaki a kuuma mwena wa Irathĩro mathondekerwo njĩra.
13 And I saw three unclean spirits that looked like frogs coming out of the mouths of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet.
Ngĩcooka ngĩona maroho matatũ mooru maahaanaga ta ciũra; namo moimire kanua ka ndamathia, na makiuma kanua ka nyamũ ĩrĩa, na kanua-inĩ ka mũnabii ũrĩa wa maheeni.
14 These are demonic spirits that perform signs and go out to all the kings of the earth, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty.
Namo nĩmo maarĩ maroho ma ndaimono marĩa maringaga ciama, namo mathiiaga kũrĩ athamaki a thĩ yothe, nĩguo mamacookanĩrĩrie nĩ ũndũ wa mbaara ĩrĩa ĩkaarũo mũthenya ũcio mũnene wa Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe.
15 “Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who remains awake and clothed, so that he will not go naked and let his shame be exposed.”
“Na rĩrĩ, ngũũka o ta mũici! Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũikaraga eiguĩte na agaikara ahaarĩirie nguo ciake, nĩgeetha ndakanae gũthiĩ njaga, nake aconorithio.”
16 And they assembled the kings in the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.
Namo maroho macio magĩcookanĩrĩria athamaki handũ harĩa hetagwo na Kĩhibirania, Arimagedoni.
17 Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came from the throne in the temple, saying, “It is done!”
Nake mũraika wa mũgwanja akĩonoreria mbakũri yake rĩera-inĩ, na rĩrĩ, hekarũ thĩinĩ gũkiuma mũgambo mũnene uumĩte gĩtĩ-inĩ kĩa ũnene, ũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Ũhoro ũcio nĩwarĩĩka!”
18 And there were flashes of lightning, and rumblings, and peals of thunder, and a great earthquake the likes of which had not occurred since men were upon the earth—so mighty was the great quake.
Gũgĩcooka gũkĩgĩa heni, na marurumĩ, na ngwa o na gĩthingithia kĩnene. Gũtirĩ kwagĩa gĩthingithia kĩngĩ kĩnene ta kĩu kuuma rĩrĩa thĩ kwagĩire andũ, nĩ ũrĩa gĩthingithia kĩu kĩarĩ kĩnene mũno.
19 The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. And God remembered Babylon the great and gave her the cup of the wine of the fury of His wrath.
Narĩo itũũra rĩrĩa inene rĩgĩatũkana njatũ ithatũ, namo matũũra ma ndũrĩrĩ makĩmomoka. Nake Ngai akĩririkana Babuloni itũũra rĩrĩa inene, na akĩrĩhe gĩkombe kĩaiyũrĩtio ndibei ya ũrũrũ wa mangʼũrĩ make.
20 Then every island fled, and no mountain could be found.
Nacio icigĩrĩra ikĩũra ciothe, nacio irĩma ikĩaga gũcooka kuoneka.
21 And great hailstones weighing almost a hundred pounds each rained down on them from above. And men cursed God for the plague of hail, because it was so horrendous.
Namo mahiga manene ma mbura ya mbembe, ma ũritũ wa ta kilo mĩrongo ĩtano o ihiga, makĩgwĩra andũ. Nao makĩruma Ngai nĩ ũndũ wa mũthiro ũcio wa mahiga ma mbura ya mbembe, tondũ mũthiro ũcio warĩ wa kũmakania mũno.
