< Revelation 12 >
1 And a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars:
Buna dimbu kinneni kimonika mu diyilu: nketo wumosi wuvuata thangu; ngondi yiba ku tsi bitambi biandi. Va ntuꞌandi vaba phu kiba kumi ayi zimbuetete zizole.
2 And being with child, she cried travailing in birth, and was in pain to be delivered.
Mu buemba kaba. Muna weka nduka buta ayi wuba yamikina mu diambu di mianga mi butila.
3 And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads, and ten horns: and on his head seven diadems:
Ayi dimbu kinkaka kimonika mu diyilu; tala dalago kimosi kinneni kimbuaki, kiba ayi tsambudi di mintu; dikumi di ziphoka. Phu ki kitinu kiba mu kadika ntu.
4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to be delivered; that, when she should be delivered, he might devour her son.
Nkilꞌandi wuvitumuna ndambu yimosi mu zindambu zitatu zi zimbuetete zi diyilu ayi wuziloza va ntoto. Dalago kitelama va ntualanketo wuba nduka mu buta muingi niandi buta kabaka bu dila muanꞌandi.
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with an iron rod: and her son was taken up to God, and to his throne.
Nketo beni wubuta muana wu bakala wufueti yadila makanda moso mu nkawa wu sengo. Buna muanꞌandi wutombolo va ndambu Nzambi ayi va ndambu kundukiandi ki kipfumu.
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God, that there they should feed her a thousand two hundred sixty days.
Nketo wutinina ku dikanga, kuna, Nzambi kankubikila buangu muingikadikulu kuna mu tezo ki mili yimosi ayi zikhama zizole ayi makumasambanu ma bilumbu.
7 And there was a great battle in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels:
Buna khindu yibua mu diyilu: Misiela ayi zimbasi ziandi zinuanisadalago. Dalago kinuana va kimosi ayi zimbasi ziandi.
8 And they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven.
Vayi Dalago kisia luta zingolo ko; diawu buangu kiawu kisia buela monika ko mu diyilu.
9 And that great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, who seduceth the whole world; and he was cast unto the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
Dalago kinneni voti nioka yikhulu yilozolo ku ntoto, kibeti tedila diabulu voti satana; niandi weti vukumuna ntoto wumvimba widi batu. Wulozolo va ntoto va kimosi ayi zimbasi ziandi.
10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying: Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: because the accuser of our brethren is cast forth, who accused them before our God day and night.
Buna ndiwa mbembo yinneni mu diyilu, yituba: Buabu phulusu, lulendo kipfumu ki Nzambi eto, lulendo lu Klisto andi bizidi bila mfundi wu bakhomba zieto; wubedi kubafundanga builu ayi muini va ntuala Nzambi eto wulozolo.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of the testimony, and they loved not their lives unto death.
Bawu bannungini mu diambu di menga ma Muana dimemi, bannungini mu diambu di mambu ma kimbangi kiawu; ayi basia zola ko luzingu luawu nate mu lufua.
12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you that dwell therein. Woe to the earth, and to the sea, because the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.
Diawu diyilu ayi beno lumvuandanga muawu bika lumona khini. Vayi mabienga kuidi ntoto ayi kuidi mbu bila satana wukulukidi kuidi beno; nganzi yinneni yidi yandi bu kazebi ti thangu yi fioti kaka yisiedi yandi.
13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman, who brought forth the man child:
Dalago bu kamona ti wulozolo ku ntoto, buna wulandakana nketo wowo wubuta muana wu bakala.
14 And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the desert unto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Bavana mavavi muadi ma mbemba kuidi nketo muingi kabaka bu dumukina ku dikanga, ku buangu kiandi ku kafueti bela thama ayi nioka. Kuna kafueti dikulu mu thangu yimosi, mu zithangu zizole, mu ndambu yi thangu.
15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman, water as it were a river; that he might cause her to be carried away by the river.
Ayi nioka yifulula nlangu mu munuꞌandi ku manima ma nketo. Nlangubeni wuba banga nlangu wunneni muingi kalalumuka mu nzadi.
16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the river, which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
Vayi ntoto wuyiza sadisa nketo. Ntoto wuzibula munuꞌandi ayi wumina nzadi yifulula dalago mu munu andi.
17 And the dragon was angry against the woman: and went to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Buna dalago kifuemina nketo ayi kiyenda nuanisa bana bobo bankaka ba nketo, bobo bankebanga zithumunu zi Nzambi ayi kimbangi ki Yesu.
