< Revelation 7 >
1 And after this I saw four angels standing upon the four corners of the earth, holding fast the four winds of the earth, that no wind might blow upon the earth, nor upon the sea, nor upon 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] sunrising, having [the] seal of [the] living God; and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it had been given to hurt the earth 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 saying, Hurt not the earth, nor the sea, nor the trees, until we shall have sealed the bondmen of our God upon their foreheads.
“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 the sealed, a hundred [and] forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of [the] sons of Israel:
Ningĩ ngĩigua mũigana wa arĩa meekĩrirwo rũũri, nao maarĩ: 144,000 kuuma mĩhĩrĩga yothe ya Isiraeli.
5 out of [the] tribe of Juda, twelve thousand sealed; out of [the] tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Gad, twelve thousand;
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 out of [the] tribe of Aser, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Nepthalim, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Manasseh, twelve thousand;
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 out of [the] tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Levi, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Issachar, twelve thousand;
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 out of [the] tribe of Zabulun, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand; out of [the] tribe of Benjamin, twelve thousand sealed.
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 these things I saw, and lo, a great crowd, which no one could number, out of every nation and tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and 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 cry with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God who sits upon 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 the elders, and the four living creatures, and fell before the throne upon their faces, and worshipped 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 thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and strength, to our God, to the ages of ages. Amen. (aiōn )
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 )
13 And one of the elders answered, saying to me, These who are clothed with white robes, who are they, and whence came they?
Na rĩrĩ, ũmwe wa athuuri acio akĩnjũũria atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya mehumbĩte nguo ndaaya cia rangi mwerũ nĩ a, na moimĩte kũ?”
14 And I said to him, My lord, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they who come out of the great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and have 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 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple, and he that sits upon the throne shall 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 They shall not hunger any more, neither shall they thirst any more, nor shall the sun at all fall on them, nor any burning heat;
Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ magaacooka kũhũũta; na matigacooka kũnyoota. Matigacinwo rĩngĩ nĩ riũa, o na kana nĩ ũrugarĩ mũhiũ o na ũrĩkũ.
17 because the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall shepherd them, and shall lead them to fountains of waters of life, and God shall 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.”
