Revelation 1
1 Jesus Christ's revelation, which God gave Him to show to His slaves—things that must occur shortly. And He communicated it, sending it by His angel to His slave John,
Wa yi hinhran u Yesu Kristi wa Irji nnowu ndu tsro ba granma ikpye waa a tie weiwiere a. A tru meleka ma ye ni Yohanna ye nhra wa.
2 who gave witness to the word of God, even the testimony of Jesus Christ—the things that He saw, both things that are and those that must happen after these.
Yohanna ahla lantre Rji nda hla u Yseu Kristi u kyi wa atoh wawumbambawu.
3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it; because the time is near.
Indi uluw ahi wa akra totsuma ma ngbangban me'a ma kii biwa mba tsi wo tre waatre nda kpa nyemen ni kpe wa mba ha nimi into a he whewhir.
4 John, to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace and peace to you from Him who is and who was and who is coming, and from the sevenfold Spirit who is before His throne,
Ime, Yohanna, hi ni Ikilisiyoyi tagban wa mba he nigbu mba asiya; tsitsi hi niyi ni sikpa ni wa ahe tsizan, wa he ni tsenmu, wawu ni ye ni shi-shi ruhohin tagban wa mba he ni kgbu kursiyin ma.
5 and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn from among the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins with His own blood
Arji ni Yesu Kristi wa mba kpanyemen ni wu, iver mumla wa alude nimi mben; wa atu chu bi gbugbu ni wa ni sonta. nda situ ihuwo ni la bi latre gbu ni iyinman.
6 —indeed, He made us a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Aleta te bi chu firistoci bi Rji ma ni teman. ndidin, ukpele wi he ai wu tun nitse ahemen (amin) (aiōn g165)
7 Take note, He comes with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, including those who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will beat their breasts [in dismay] because of Him. Yea, verily!
Nya atsiye nimi kpan, shishi nde mbato ni nde biwa tugbu ni njigba ndi bi gbugbu pepemen mbayin niwu, ahemen (amin).
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “He who is and who was and who is coming, The Almighty.”
Ameyin mumudin ni klekle Irji treme wawu zizan; wa ahe tu nitsemu, wawu niyen, wawu ni kpekple wawu.
9 I, John, your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and endurance in Christ Jesus, was on the island called Patmos on account of the Word of God and on account of the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Eme, Yohanna, rayinbin, wa ahe niyin ni mi iyabin, ni son ndidi ni fusroun waube ni Yesu. Igbulu mba wambayo Badmusa, ni tre Rji wa ala ni tu Yesu.
10 I was in spirit on the Lord's day and I heard a voice behind me, loud as a trumpet,
Mi he nimi Ruhu nifi u Rji, ndi wo lanri ni kwugon nu na ijun.
11 saying, “Write what you see in a book and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia and to Laodicea.”
Ala ha ikpe wawu to rinu vuvu; nde tru hi ni Ikilisiyoyin tagban mba; wa ahe Afisus; ni Simirna, waahe ni Tayatira, wa ahe ni Sardisu, waahe ni Filadalfiya, ni waahe ni Laudikiya.
12 And there I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands,
Mi ya ndi atsi tre nimen, wa mi ya miton ilu fitila tagban ni ngbugbu klomba.
13 and in the midst of the seven lampstands one similar to a son of man, clothed down to the feet and girded at the nipples with a golden belt.
Nimi ilu nde ri hena ker nde a kri ni gla gagloma hi ni zanma, alakpa ni zinariya nitsan ma.
14 Now His head, that is His hair, was white, like wool, as white as snow; and His eyes were like a flame of fire;
Ituma ni fukpa kye na fu fu rjurju na men atsi gji ni kpama; shishi ahe na wau.
15 and His feet were like fine brass, as when refined in a furnace; and His voice was like the sound of many waters;
Izama mba kpa, mbahe na klalu wa mba la niwu, atsi glo na man ni nei.
16 and He had seven stars on His right hand and a sharp two-edged sword coming out of His mouth; and His countenance was like the sun shining in its strength.
Nuwo kota ma agji tsitse tangba ni nyuma agji gjin e. nyu ha shishi ma tsi kpa na rji.
17 And when I saw Him I fell at His feet as if dead. And He placed His right hand upon me saying: “Do not fear. I am the First and the Last,
Wa mi tori mi jeku nza ma na kgbu nde. akawo ma ikita san ni tu mu nda la, na ti tsitsirena, imee mi mumle ni nklekle.
19 Therefore write the things that you have seen, and the things that are, and the things that are going to occur after these.
A he nawa, ha kpe wawu to igpi waahe zizan, waani he ni kwogon waujin.
20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw upon my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: the seven stars are the messengers of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands that you saw are seven churches.
Mi tu ma'ana, ni tsitse tagban wa mba to niwo kotama, ni whirji wa mbalo. Fitila tagban u Zinariya. tsitse tagban mba malaiku (pastoci) bi Ikilisiya tagban, whi rji mba lo fitilu tagban mba Ikilisiyoyi tagban mba.
