Revelation 8
1 When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
Tango Mpate afungolaki ekangelo ya sambo, kimia moko ekotaki kati na Lola mpe esalaki minite pene tuku misato.
2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and they were given seven trumpets.
Bongo namonaki ba-anjelu sambo oyo batelemaka liboso ya Nzambe, mpe bapesaki bango bakelelo sambo.
3 Then another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, along with the prayers of all the saints, on the golden altar before the throne.
Anjelu mosusu ayaki mpe atelemaki na etumbelo; amemaki mbabola basala na wolo mpo na kotumba na yango ansa. Bapesaki ye ansa ebele ya kobonza elongo na mabondeli ya basantu nyonso, mpo ete abonza yango na likolo ya etumbelo basala na wolo, liboso ya Kiti ya Bokonzi.
4 And the smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the hand of the angel.
Wuta na loboko ya anjelu, molinga ya ansa elongo na mabondeli ya basantu emataki liboso ya Nzambe.
5 Then the angel took the censer, filled it with fire from the altar, and hurled it to the earth; and there were peals of thunder, and rumblings, and flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
Bongo anjelu azwaki mbabola, atondisaki yango na makala ya moto oyo azwaki na etumbelo, mpe abwakaki mbabola yango na mabele. Mbala moko, lokito moko ya makasi eyokanaki: bakake, mingongo, mikalikali mpe koningana ya mabele.
6 And the seven angels with the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.
Bongo ba-anjelu sambo oyo bazalaki na bakelelo sambo bamibongisaki mpo na kobeta yango.
7 Then the first angel sounded his trumpet, and hail and fire mixed with blood were hurled down upon the earth. A third of the earth was burned up, along with a third of the trees and all the green grass.
Anjelu ya liboso abetaki kelelo; mpe, mbala moko, mvula ya mabanga mike elongo na moto esangana na makila ebwakamaki na mabele. Bongo biloko oyo ezikaki: eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya mabele, eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya banzete, mpe matiti nyonso ya mobesu.
8 Then the second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea turned to blood,
Anjelu ya mibale abetaki kelelo; mpe na mbala moko, eloko moko lokola ngomba monene oyo ezali kopela moto ebwakamaki na ebale monene. Eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya ebale monene ekomaki makila;
9 a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third of the ships were destroyed.
mpe eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya bikelamu oyo evandaka kati na ebale monene ekufaki, eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya bamasuwa nyonso ebebisamaki.
10 Then the third angel sounded his trumpet, and a great star burning like a torch fell from heaven and landed on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water.
Anjelu ya misato abetaki kelelo; mpe na mbala moko, monzoto moko ya monene oyo ezali kopela lokola mwinda monene ekweyelaki, longwa na likolo, eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya bibale mpe bitima ya mayi.
11 The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters turned bitter like wormwood oil, and many people died from the bitter waters.
Kombo ya monzoto yango ezali: Bololo. Eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya bamayi ekomaki bololo, mpe bato ebele bakufaki likolo na bamayi mpo ete ekomaki bololo.
12 Then the fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun and moon and stars were struck. A third of the stars were darkened, a third of the day was without light, and a third of the night as well.
Anjelu ya minei abetaki kelelo; mpe na mbala moko, eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya moyi, ya sanza mpe ya minzoto ebebaki. Na bongo, eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya kongenga na yango ekomaki molili. Boye eteni moko kati na biteni misato ya mokolo mpe ya butu ezangaki pole.
13 And as I observed, I heard an eagle flying overhead, calling in a loud voice, “Woe! Woe! Woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the trumpet blasts about to be sounded by the remaining three angels!”
Bongo nayokaki mpongo, oyo ezalaki kopumbwa na likolo makasi, koloba na mongongo makasi: « Mawa! Mawa! Mawa penza na bavandi ya mokili tango ba-anjelu misato ya suka bakobeta bakelelo na bango! »
