< 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,
Jesu Kilisiti doagidima yaama ke U Tienu den teni o, ke wan waani o naacenba ya bonla n ba ti tieni ke li kan go waagi. ke o den soani o maleki, o naacemo Jan kani, ke wan teni wan bandi laa bonla kuli.
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.
jan den tieni siedi, ke wan den laa yaala kuli tie U Tienu maama leni Jesu Kilisiti yaa siedi.
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.
Li pamanli ye leni yua n cogi leni yaaba n gba yaa sawali maama n diani ki go kubi likuli mo, kelima li yogunu nagini.
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,
Mini Jan n diani ya tili n tie ne, Kilisiti n yini yaa nitaanleleeda ya n ye Asi diema nni po. U Tienu yua den kpa ye, ki ye moala, ki ba ti cua leni o Fuoma lelee yaama n ye o balikalikaanu nintuali.
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
Leni Jesu Kilisiti yua n tie o siedi-dugika, ki tie o nikpialo yua kpa fii bi tinkpiba siiga; ki tie ŋanduna kuli badiba Bado, wani yua n bua ti, ki den faabi ti, ki ñani ti ti tuonbiadi nni, kelima o soama yaapo,
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)
ki go teni ke ti tua kopadicianba diema o Baa U Tienu po, wani n yaa die ti kpiagidi leni u paaciamu hali ya yogunu kuli. Amina! (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!
Diidi, o kpendi a tawala nni, nunbu kuli baa le o, baa yaaba n den muu o. ŋanduna nibuoli kuli baa buudi kelima o yaa po. Yene. Amina.
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “He who is and who was and who is coming, The Almighty.”
O Diedo U Tienu, U Paaciamu Kuli Daano yua n ye, ki den ye, ki go ba ti cua, wani n yedi: Mini n tie alifa len omega.
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.
Mini Jan, yi kpiilo yua n taa leni yi o falaciamo leni U Tienu diema, leni li juunli nni Jesu nni, bi den gedini nni Patimosa kpendigili kelima U Tienu maama leni Jesu ya siedo po.
10 I was in spirit on the Lord's day and I heard a voice behind me, loud as a trumpet,
O Diedo daali, U Tienu Fuoma den cuo nni, n den gbadi u nialiciamu n puoli, ke u tie nani kakaci yeni.
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.”
U den tua: ŋan nua yaala, ŋan diani la li liti nni ki soani li Kilisiti n yini yaa nitaan leleeda yaa n ye Efesa Similina, Peligama, Tiatila, Salida, Filadelifi, leni Layodise dogi nni kuli po.
12 And there I turned to see the voice that was speaking with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands,
N den jigidi ki baa bandi yua n maadi leni nni. Lani min den jigidi ya yogunu n den laa wula fidisantuan-kaani lele.
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.
I fidisantuan-kaani leleedi yeni siiga den pia yua n naani leni o nisaalo bijua ke o laa liadicianli ke li jiidi hali o tafaadi, ki ñaagi o benli po wula ñagidu.
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;
O yuli leni o yudi den pieni pai pai nani ti kunkundi yeni. O nuni den tie nani u mupienu yeni.
15 and His feet were like fine brass, as when refined in a furnace; and His voice was like the sound of many waters;
O taana den naani leni ban tongi ya kumoandi u maafanu nni ke ti moandi yeni. O nialu mo den tie nani mi ñinciama ya fuugu yeni.
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.
O den muubi ŋmabila lelee o najienu nni. Jugisieñoaliedi yaaga mani den ña o ñoabu nni. O nunga mo den ñuliti nani u yienu n yen kpadi u yensiinu maama yeni.
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,
Min den laa o ya yogunu, n den baa o taana kani nani n kpe yeni. O den maani n po, o najienu ki yedi: Han da jie liba mini n tie o kpialo leni o juodika
18 even the Living One—I became dead, to be sure, and now I am living for ever and ever! Oh yes! And I have the keys of Death and of Hades! (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
leni yua n fo, n den kpe, ama diidi ki le, n go fo ki baa ye hali ya yogunu kuli. N kubi mi kuuma leni bi tinkpiba yekaanu kile. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
19 Therefore write the things that you have seen, and the things that are, and the things that are going to occur after these.
Lanwani, diani ŋan laa yaala, yaala n ye moala, leni yaala n ba ti yuandi ki cua.
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.
Yaala n bundi ŋan la ke n muubi ya ŋmabileleeda n jienu nni yeni, leni wula fidisantuan-kaani lele yeni tie line yo: a ŋmabileleeda tie Kilisiti n yini yaaba nitaanleleeda ya malekinba, fidisantuan kaani lele yeni mo tie Kilisiti n yini yaaba nitaan lelee yeni.
