Revelation 7
1 After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back its four winds so that no wind would blow on land or sea or on any tree.
Thuutha wa ũguo ngĩona araika ana marũgamĩte ituri-inĩ iria inya cia thĩ, marigĩrĩirie huho iria inya cia thĩ nĩgeetha rũhuho o ruothe rũtikahurutane gũkũ thĩ, kana iria-inĩ rĩrĩa inene, o na kana mũtĩ-inĩ o wothe.
2 And I saw another angel ascending from the east, with the seal of the living God. And he called out in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given power to harm the land and the sea:
Ngĩcooka ngĩona mũraika ũngĩ akĩambata oimĩte mwena wa irathĩro, arĩ na mũhũri wa Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo. Nake agĩĩta araika acio ana na mũgambo mũnene, acio maaheetwo ũhoti mathũkie thĩ na iria rĩrĩa inene, akĩmeera atĩrĩ:
3 “Do not harm the land or sea or trees until we have sealed the foreheads of the servants of our God.”
“Mũtigathũkie thĩ, kana iria, o na kana mĩtĩ, nginya tũkorwo tũrĩkĩtie gwĩkĩra ndungata cia Ngai witũ rũũri ithiithi-inĩ ciao.”
4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed, 144,000 from all the tribes of Israel:
Ningĩ ngĩigua mũigana wa arĩa meekĩrirwo rũũri, nao maarĩ: 144,000 kuuma mĩhĩrĩga yothe ya Isiraeli.
5 From the tribe of Judah 12,000 were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben 12,000, from the tribe of Gad 12,000,
A mũhĩrĩga wa Juda arĩa meekĩrirwo rũũri maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Gadi maarĩ 12,000,
6 from the tribe of Asher 12,000, from the tribe of Naphtali 12,000, from the tribe of Manasseh 12,000,
na a mũhĩrĩga wa Asheri maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Nafitali maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Manase maarĩ 12,000,
7 from the tribe of Simeon 12,000, from the tribe of Levi 12,000, from the tribe of Issachar 12,000,
na a mũhĩrĩga wa Simeoni maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Lawi maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Isakaru maarĩ 12,000,
8 from the tribe of Zebulun 12,000, from the tribe of Joseph 12,000, and from the tribe of Benjamin 12,000.
na a mũhĩrĩga wa Zebuluni maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Jusufu maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Benjamini maarĩ 12,000.
9 After this I looked and saw a multitude too large to count, from every nation and tribe and people and tongue, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and holding palm branches in their hands.
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio ngĩcooka ngĩrora, na hau mbere yakwa-rĩ, ngĩona kĩrĩndĩ kĩnene gĩtangĩtarĩka nĩ mũndũ, kĩa andũ moimĩte ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe, na maarĩ a mĩhĩrĩga yothe, na iruka ciothe, na thiomi ciothe, marũgamĩte mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, na mbere ya Gatũrũme. Nao meehumbĩte nguo ndaaya cia rangi mwerũ, na makanyiita makĩndũ na moko.
10 And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”
Nao maanagĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene makoiga atĩrĩ: “Kũhonokania nĩ kwa Ngai witũ, ũrĩa ũikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, na gwa Gatũrũme.”
11 And all the angels stood around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. And they fell facedown before the throne and worshiped God,
Nao araika acio othe maarũgamĩte mathiũrũrũkĩirie gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene, na magathiũrũrũkĩria athuuri acio na ciũmbe icio inya irĩ muoyo. Nao magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ hau mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, makĩhooya Ngai,
12 saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God forever and ever! Amen.” (aiōn g165)
Makiugaga atĩrĩ: “Ameni! Ũgooci, na riiri, na ũũgĩ, na ngaatho, na gĩtĩĩo na ũhoti, na hinya, irotũũra na Ngai witũ tene na tene. Ameni!” (aiōn g165)
13 Then one of the elders addressed me: “These in white robes,” he asked, “who are they, and where have they come from?”
Na rĩrĩ, ũmwe wa athuuri acio akĩnjũũria atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya mehumbĩte nguo ndaaya cia rangi mwerũ nĩ a, na moimĩte kũ?”
14 “Sir,” I answered, “you know.” So he replied, “These are the ones who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
Na niĩ ngĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, nĩwe ũũĩ.” Nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Aya nĩ arĩa moimĩte mĩnyamaro-inĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene; nao nĩmathambĩtie nguo ciao na magacierũhia na thakame ya Gatũrũme.
15 For this reason, they are before the throne of God and serve Him day and night in His temple; and the One seated on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, “rĩu maikaraga mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Ngai, na mamũtungatagĩra mũthenya na ũtukũ thĩinĩ wa hekarũ yake; nake ũrĩa ũikaragĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene egũtũũra atambũrũkĩtie hema yake igũrũ rĩao.
16 ‘Never again will they hunger, and never will they thirst; nor will the sun beat down upon them, nor any scorching heat.’
Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ magaacooka kũhũũta; na matigacooka kũnyoota. Matigacinwo rĩngĩ nĩ riũa, o na kana nĩ ũrugarĩ mũhiũ o na ũrĩkũ.
17 For the Lamb in the center of the throne will be their shepherd. ‘He will lead them to springs of living water,’ and ‘God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’”
Nĩgũkorwo Gatũrũme ũrĩa ũrĩ gatagatĩ ga gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene nĩwe ũgaatuĩka mũrĩithi wao; nĩakamatongoria, amakinyie ithima-inĩ cia maaĩ ma muoyo. Nake Ngai nĩakamagiria maithori mothe mathire maitho-inĩ mao.”
