< Revelation 9 >
1 Then the fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from heaven to earth, and it was given the key to the pit of the Abyss. (Abyssos )
Mgbe mmụọ ozi nke ise ahụ fụrụ opi ike ya, ahụrụ m otu kpakpando si nʼeluigwe daa nʼala. E nyere ya ihe ọtụghe igodo nke e ji atụghe olulu nke Abis ahụ. (Abyssos )
2 The star opened the pit of the Abyss, and smoke rose out of it like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke from the pit. (Abyssos )
Mgbe o meghere olulu Abis ahụ, anwụrụ ọkụ dị ukwu sitere nʼime ya pụta dịka anwụrụ ọkụ si nʼọkụ icheku ọkụ ya dị ukwuu, mee ka oke ọchịchịrị kpuchie ihu anyanwụ na mbara eluigwe. (Abyssos )
3 And out of the smoke, locusts descended on the earth, and they were given power like that of the scorpions of the earth.
Igurube sitere nʼanwụrụ ọkụ ahụ pụta fedakwasa ụwa. E nyekwara ha ike ịta mmadụ ọbụla dịka akpị si agba mmadụ.
4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.
E nyere ha iwu si ha emebila ahịhịa ndụ ọbụla, maọbụ osisi na ihe ọbụla a kụrụ nʼala. Kama ọrụ ha bụ ịbịakwasị mmadụ ọbụla na-enweghị akara Chineke nʼegedege ihu ya.
5 The locusts were not given power to kill them, but only to torment them for five months, and their torment was like the stinging of a scorpion.
Iwu e nyere ha abụghị ka ha gbuo ndị a, kama ọ bụ ka ha mekpaa ha ahụ ọnwa ise. Mmekpa ahụ ha dịka ahụ ụfụ na nhụju anya nke akpị mgbe ọ gbara mmadụ.
6 In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will long to die, but death will escape them.
Nʼime ụbọchị ndị ahụ, ọtụtụ mmadụ ga-achọ iji aka ha gbuo onwe ha ma ha agaghị enwe ike mee ya. Agụụ ịnwụ ọnwụ ga-agụ ha, ma ọnwụ ga-esi nʼebe ha nọ wezuga onwe ya.
7 And the locusts looked like horses prepared for battle, with something like crowns of gold on their heads, and faces like the faces of men.
Igurube ndị a nwere oyiyi dị ka ịnyịnya a kwadebere maka ibu agha. Ha nwere ihe yiri okpueze e ji ọlaedo kpụọ nʼisi ha. Ihu ha dịkwa ka ihu mmadụ.
8 They had hair like that of women, and teeth like those of lions.
Agịrị isi ha dịka agịrị isi ụmụ nwanyị. Eze ha dịkwa ka eze ọdụm.
9 They also had thoraxes like breastplates of iron, and the sound of their wings was like the roar of many horses and chariots rushing into battle.
Ha yikwasịrị onwe ha ihe ikpuchi obi dịka nke e ji igwe kpụọ. Nku ha na-eme mkpọtụ dị ka ụda nzọ ụkwụ ọtụtụ ịnyịnya nke ụgbọ agha na-esekpu na-abanye nʼọgbọ agha.
10 They had tails with stingers like scorpions, which had the power to injure people for five months.
Ha nwere ọdụdụ dịka akpị. Ma ike niile e nyere ha bụ imerụ ndị mmadụ ahụ ọnwa ise site nʼike dị nʼọdụdụ ha.
11 They were ruled by a king, the angel of the Abyss. His name in Hebrew is Abaddon, and in Greek it is Apollyon. (Abyssos )
Ha nwere mmụọ ozi nke Abis, onye na-achịkọta ha dịka eze. Aha ya nʼasụsụ Hibru bụ Abadọn, ma nʼasụsụ Griik ọ bụ Apolion. (Abyssos )
12 The first woe has passed. Behold, two woes are still to follow.
Ahụhụ nke mbụ agafeela, ebe ahụhụ abụọ ọzọ na-abịa nʼihu.
13 Then the sixth angel sounded his trumpet, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar before God
Mgbe mmụọ ozi nke isii fụrụ opi ike ya, anụrụ m olu sitere na mpi anọ ahụ dị nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ e jiri ọlaedo wuo, nke dị nʼihu ocheeze Chineke,
14 saying to the sixth angel with the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”
na-agwa mmụọ ozi nke isii ahụ, nke ji opi ike okwu, “Tọpụ mmụọ ozi anọ ndị ahụ e kere agbụ nʼebe osimiri Yufretis dị.”
15 So the four angels who had been prepared for this hour and day and month and year were released to kill a third of mankind.
A tọhapụrụ ndị mmụọ ozi anọ ahụ, ndị e jibu eji na njikere maka oge awa ahụ, na ụbọchị ahụ, na ọnwa ahụ, na afọ ahụ, iji gbuo otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ nke mmadụ.
16 And the number of mounted troops was two hundred million; I heard their number.
Ndị agha ahụ, ọnụọgụgụ ha bụ narị nde abụọ. Anụrụ m mgbe e kwuru ole ha dị.
17 Now the horses and riders in my vision looked like this: The riders had breastplates the colors of fire, sapphire, and sulfur. The heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths proceeded fire, smoke, and sulfur.
Nʼime ọhụ m, ahụrụ m ịnyịnya ha, hụkwa ndị nọkwasịrị ha nʼelu. Ndị nọ nʼelu ịnyịnya ndị a yi ihe ikpuchi obi nke ụfọdụ nʼime ha na-acha ọbara ọbara. Ụfọdụ na-acha dịka akpụkpọ eluigwe, ụfọdụ na-acha odo odo. Ụfọdụ na-acha dịka anwụrụ ọkụ. Isi ịnyịnya ha dịka isi ọdụm, anwụrụ ọkụ na ọkụ na nkume ọkụ sị ha nʼọnụ na-apụta.
18 A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke, and sulfur that proceeded from their mouths.
E sitere nʼihe mmekpa ahụ ndị a, ire ọkụ, anwụrụ ọkụ na nkume ọkụ na-adịghị anyụ anyụ, ka ha ji gbuo otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ nke mmadụ niile bi nʼụwa.
19 For the power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; indeed, their tails were like snakes, having heads with which to inflict harm.
Ike ịnyịnya ndị a dị nʼọnụ ha, na ọdụdụ ha. Ọdụdụ ha dị ka agwọ, nwee isi agwọ nke ha ji emerụ mmadụ ahụ.
20 Now the rest of mankind who were not killed by these plagues still did not repent of the works of their hands. They did not stop worshiping demons and idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone, and wood, which cannot see or hear or walk.
Ma ndị fọdụrụ nʼetiti mmadụ, bụ ndị a na-egbughị site nʼihe ntaramahụhụ ọrịa ndị a, echegharịghị site nʼọrụ aka ha maọbụ ịkwụsị ife mmụọ ọjọọ ofufe. Ha jụkwara ịkwụsị ife arụsị ha niile nke ha ji ọlaedo na ọlaọcha na bronz na igwe na nkume na osisi kpụọ. Chi ndị na-apụghị ịhụ ụzọ, maọbụ ịnụ ihe, maọbụ ije ije.
21 Furthermore, they did not repent of their murder, sorcery, sexual immorality, and theft.
Ha echegharịghị site nʼigbu mmadụ ha, maọbụ ụzọ mgbaasị ha, maọbụ ndụ ịkwa iko ha, na izu ohi ha pụta.
