Revelation 18
1 After this I saw another angel descending from heaven with great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his glory.
Hakumana izo zintu chinabona iñiloi limwi ne lisuka kuzwa kwiwulu. Libena maata makando, mi inkanda ibaboniswa chekanya yakwe.
2 And he cried out in a mighty voice: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a lair for demons and a haunt for every unclean spirit, every unclean bird, and every detestable beast.
Li bahuwelezi chamata enzwi likolete, nilyati, “Abawi, Abawi, Babilona mukando! Abakezi ku bachibaka chamekalo amadimona, matiililo a mahuho onse asajolwele, ni matililo a zonse zisajololi ni zizuni zisaliwa.
3 All the nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her immorality. The kings of the earth were immoral with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown wealthy from the extravagance of her luxury.”
Chokuti mishobo yonse ibanywi kwiwaine ya bubi bakwe. Malena beinkanda ba bapangi busangu bubi naye. Bauzi be inkanda bababi bafumi chamata abubi bwa ba kuhala.”
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “Come out of her, My people, so that you will not share in her sins or contract any of her plagues.
Kuzwaho ni chi nazuwa inzwi limwi lizwa kwiulu liti, “Mu zwe kwali, bantu bangu, ilikuti kanji muliabeli muzivi zakwe, mikuti kanji mutambuli imwi yenkozi zakwe.
5 For her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
zivi zakwe zibalindami kuya mwiulu sina iwulu, mi Ireeza abazezi inkezo zibilala zakwe.
6 Give back to her as she has done to others; pay her back double for what she has done; mix her a double portion in her own cup.
Mu mulihe chaku mubozekeza sina mwabalihili bamwi kubabozekeza, mi mumulihe tobele kachabapangi; mwinkomoki ya bakopanyi, mukopanye tobele inteko yakwe.
7 As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury, give her the same measure of torment and grief. In her heart she says, ‘I sit as queen; I am not a widow and will never see grief.’
Sina habali kulinyamuna nikuhala mubuhalo bulutu, mu muhe kusasaminwa chabungi ni kuchiswa. mukuti abaliwambili munkulo yakwe, 'Nikele cha bu Simwine wa mwanakazi; kahena ni mbelwa, mi kete ne ni bone chililo,'
8 Therefore her plagues will come in one day— death and grief and famine— and she will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.”
Nihakwinabulyo lumwiluzuba inkoto zakwe mozize: ifu, chililo, niinanga. Mwahiswe chamulilo, Kakuti Simwine Ireeza wina maata, mi nji muatuli wakwe.”
9 Then the kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived in luxury with her will weep and wail at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her.
Basimwie benkanda ba bapangi busangu buzwile munzila naye mobalile ni kuswaba chebaka lyakwe hete nibabone buusi bwa nahya.
10 In fear of her torment, they will stand at a distance and cry out: “Woe, woe to the great city, the mighty city of Babylon! For in a single hour your judgment has come.”
Ka bazimane kule butabule naye, kutiya mwanyandisezwa nibawamba, “Mawe, mawe kumuleneñi mukando, Babilona, muleneñi u kolete! Mukuti mwihola yimwina inkoto yakwe chiyasika.
11 And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, because there is no one left to buy their cargo—
Bauzi bahansi babalili ni kumusilisa, sina hakusana kubasina bawula zintu zakwe hape-
12 cargo of gold, silver, precious stones, and pearls; of fine linen, purple, silk, and scarlet; of all kinds of citron wood and every article of ivory, precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble;
Izo zintu ibali igauda, silivela, mabwe abutokwa, lipelela, masila eline indotu, pepulu, siluki, asubila, nimifuta yonse yazisamu zinunka bulotu, zintu zamanaka abanzovu, zintu zonse zipangitwe hazisamu zabutotwa, bronze, insipi, marabulu,
13 of cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, and frankincense; of wine, olive oil, fine flour, and wheat; of cattle, sheep, horses, and chariots; of slaves and souls of men.
sinamoni, mununkiso, isense, mira, lisende, waine, oili, busu bunakitwe, buloto, iñombe, imbelele, imbizi ni inkoloi, ni bahikana, ninhuho zabantu.
14 And they will say: “The fruit of your soul’s desire has departed from you; all your luxury and splendor have vanished, never to be seen again.”
Zichelantu zobanungitwe chamaata ako wonse chikwahita kule nawe. Zonse zachimbombo ni zakulifumisa chizamana, mikete ziwanike hape.
15 The merchants who sold these things and grew their wealth from her will stand at a distance, in fear of her torment. They will weep and mourn,
Bauzi bezi zintu babafumi chebaka lyakwe kabazimane kule naye butabule kakuti batiya manyando akwe, kilila ni kusilisa katata.
16 saying: “Woe, woe to the great city, clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!
Kabawambe, “Mawe, mawe kumuleneni mukando ubazwatikitwe mwisila lyelineni, ni pepulu, ni asubila, mi abakabiswe ni gauda, inyanga zidula, ni liperela.
17 For in a single hour such fabulous wealth has been destroyed!” Every shipmaster, passenger, and sailor, and all who make their living from the sea, will stand at a distance
mwihola yimwina bufumu bonse bubashinyehi.” Muyendisi yense wachikepe, Bayembani bamwiwate vonse, bazuhi, mi nabana bonse bahala chazintu zipangwa mwiwate, babazimani butabule.
18 and cry out at the sight of the smoke rising from the fire that consumes her. “What city was ever like this great city?” they will exclaim.
Babalili ahulu hababona busi bwakwe nahya. Nibati, “Muleneni nzi uswana ni muleneni mukando?”
19 Then they will throw dust on their heads as they weep and mourn and cry out: “Woe, woe to the great city, where all who had ships on the sea were enriched by her wealth! For in a single hour she has been destroyed.”
Babasoheli itwe hamitwi yabo, ni kuhuwa, kulila ni kusilisa, “Mawe, mawe ku muleneni mukando uko bonse babena zikepe babafumi kubufumu bwakwe. Mwihola imwina chasinyiwa.”
20 Rejoice over her, O heaven, O saints and apostles and prophets, because God has pronounced for you His judgment against her.
Musange chakwe, iwulu, inwe muzumina, baapositola, ni bapolofita, mukuti Ireeza abaleti inkatulo yenu kwali.”
21 Then a mighty angel picked up a stone the size of a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying: “With such violence the great city of Babylon will be cast down, never to be seen again.
Iñiloi lina maata nilya hinda ibwe likola insilwana inkando yakusilisa ni kuli sohela mwiwate, niliti, “Munzila inabulyo, Babilona, muleneñi mukando, kausohelwe hansi chakubenga mikete niwubonwe hape.
22 And the sound of harpists and musicians, of flute players and trumpeters, will never ring out in you again. Nor will any craftsmen of any trade be found in you again, nor the sound of a millstone be heard in you again.
Muhuwo we herepa, bazimbi, baliza impala ni baliza impeta kete niwuzuweke kwako ni kamuta. Kakwina mubezi wamufuta uhi nowuhi yete nawanike kwako. Kakwina milumu wachigayo wete niwuzuweke hape kwako.
23 The light of a lamp will never shine in you again, and the voices of a bride and bridegroom will never call out in you again. For your merchants were the great ones of the earth, because all the nations were deceived by your sorcery.”
Iseli lye lambi kete nilimunike kwako hape. Manzwii a munyali ni munyaliwa kete niazuweke kwako hape, mukuti wauzi bako ibali bamukwaye benkanda, mi chisi chibachengetwe chabulozi bwako.
24 And there was found in her the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who had been slain on the earth.
Mumalaha akwe kubawaniki amupollofita ni abazumine, ni malaha abantu bonse babehahiwa hansi.”
