Revelation 21
1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
Zvino ndakaona denga idzva nenyika itsva, nokuti denga rekutanga nenyika yekutanga zvakange zvapfuura, uye gungwa rakange risisipo.
2 I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
Zvino ini Johwani ndakaona guta dzvene, Jerusarema idzva, richiburuka kubva kuna Mwari kubva kudenga, rakagadzirirwa semwenga wakashongedzerwa murume wake.
3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying: “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man, and He will dwell with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them as their God.
Zvino ndakanzwa inzwi guru kubva kudenga, richiti: Tarira, tabhenakeri yaMwari iri pavanhu, iye achagara navo, uye ivo vachava vanhu vake; naMwari amene achava navo, ari Mwari wavo.
4 ‘He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,’ and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the former things have passed away.”
Zvino Mwari achapusika misodzi yese kubva pameso avo, nerufu haruchazovipo, kana kushungurudzika, kana kurira, kana kurwadziwa hakungachavipo; nokuti zvinhu zvekutanga zvapfuura.
5 And the One seated on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are faithful and true.”
Zvino agere pachigaro cheushe wakati: Tarira, ndinoita zvinhu zvese zvive zvitsva. Ndokuti kwandiri: Nyora; nokuti mashoko awa ndeechokwadi uye akatendeka.
6 And He told me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give freely from the spring of the water of life.
Zvino akati kwandiri: Zvaitika. Ndini Arifa naOmega, Kutanga neKupedzisira. Ini ndichapa kuna iye ane nyota zvinobva pachitubu chemvura yeupenyu pachena.
7 The one who overcomes will inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be My son.
Anokunda achagara nhaka yezvinhu zvese; uye ndichava Mwari wake, naiye achava mwanakomana wangu.
9 Then one of the seven angels with the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
Zvino kwakauya kwandiri umwe wevatumwa vanomwe vakange vane ndiro nomwe dzizere nematambudziko manomwe ekupedzisira, akataura neni, achiti: Uya pano ndigokuratidza mwenga, mukadzi weGwayana.
10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city of Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God,
Zvino wakanditakurira muMweya kugomo guru uye refu, akandiratidza guta guru, Jerusarema dzvene, richiburuka kubva kudenga kubva kuna Mwari,
11 shining with the glory of God. Its radiance was like a most precious jewel, like a jasper, as clear as crystal.
rine kubwinya kwaMwari; uye chiedza charo chakaita sebwe rinokoshesesa, sebwe rejasipisi, rinonjenjemera sekrisitaro;
12 The city had a great and high wall with twelve gates inscribed with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel, and twelve angels at the gates.
uye rakange rine rusvingo rukuru uye rurefu, rine masuwo gumi nemaviri, nevatumwa gumi nevaviri pamusuwo, nemazita akanyorwa pamusoro, ari emarudzi gumi nemaviri evana vaIsraeri.
13 There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south, and three on the west.
Kumabvazuva masuwo matatu; kumaodzanyemba masuwo matatu; kuchamhembe masuwo matatu; nekumavirira masuwo matatu;
14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations bearing the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
zvino rusvingo rweguta rwakange rwune nheyo gumi nembiri, nepadziri mazita evaapositori gumi nevaviri veGwayana.
15 The angel who spoke with me had a golden measuring rod to measure the city and its gates and walls.
Zvino wakataura neni wakange ane rutsanga rwegoridhe, kuti ayere guta, namasuwo aro, nerusingo rwaro.
16 The city lies foursquare, with its width the same as its length. And he measured the city with the rod, and all its dimensions were equal—12,000 stadia in length and width and height.
Zvino guta rakange rakamiswa rakaenzana mativi mana, nekureba kwaro kwakakura kudai sekufara; ndokuyera guta nerutsanga, rikasvika pamastadhia zvuru gumi nezviviri; kureba nekufara nekukwirira kwaro zvakaenzana.
17 And he measured its wall to be 144 cubits, by the human measure the angel was using.
Zvino wakayera rusvingo rwaro, mbimbi zana nemakumi mana nemana, chiyero chemunhu, chinova chemutumwa.
18 The wall was made of jasper, and the city itself of pure gold, as pure as glass.
Uye maiva nechivakwa cherusvingo rwaro, jasipisi, uye guta riri goridhe rakakwana, rakafanana negirazi rakachenesesa.
19 The foundations of the city walls were adorned with every kind of precious stone: The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
Nenheyo dzerusvingo rweguta dzakashongedzwa nebwe rimwe nerimwe rinokosha. Nheyo yekutanga ijasipisi, yepiri isafiri, yetatu ikarikidhoni, yechina iemaradhi,
20 the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.
yeshanu isaridhonikisi, yetanhatu isaridhio, yechinomwe ikrisoriti, yerusere bheriri, yepfumbamwe topasi, yegumi kirisopirasi, yegumi neimwe hiasindi, yegumi nembiri ametesiti.
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, with each gate consisting of a single pearl. The main street of the city was pure gold, as clear as glass.
Zvino masuwo gumi nemaviri maparera gumi nemaviri; rimwe nerimwe remasuwo rakange riri reparera rimwe; uye nzira yemuguta igoridhe rakakwana segirazi rinonjenjemera.
22 But I saw no temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
Zvino handina kuona tembere mukati marwo, nokuti Ishe Mwari Wemasimbaose itembere yarwo, neGwayana.
23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, because the glory of God illuminates the city, and the Lamb is its lamp.
Zvino guta harishaiwi zuva kana mwedzi kuvhenekera mariri; nokuti kubwinya kwaMwari kunorivhenekera, nemwenje waro iGwayana;
24 By its light the nations will walk, and into it the kings of the earth will bring their glory.
zvino marudzi evanoponeswa achafamba muchiedza charo, nemadzimambo enyika achauisa kubwinya nerukudzo rwawo mariri.
25 Its gates will never be shut at the end of the day, because there will be no night there.
Zvino masuwo aro haangatongopfigwi masikati, nokuti usiku hahuchazovipo.
26 And into the city will be brought the glory and honor of the nations.
Uye vachauisa kubwinya nerukudzo rwendudzi mariri.
27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who practices an abomination or a lie, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
Uye hamungatongopindi chero chinhu chinosvibisa mariri, uye chinosemesa, uye nhema; asi vakanyorwa mubhuku reupenyu reGwayana.
