< Revelation 18 >

1 After this I saw another angel descending from heaven. He had great power and the earth was lit up by his glory.
Pagamaliki genago, namuwene mtumu yungi wa kunani kwa Chapanga ihelela kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga. Avi na uhotola mkulu, na mulima wang'asimi kwa kung'asima kwaki.
2 He shouted out in a powerful voice, “Babylon the great has collapsed into ruins! She has become a place where demons live, the refuge of every unclean spirit, and the roost of every unclean and detestable bird.
Hinu, akakwesa lwami akajova. “Ugwili, Babeli mkulu ugwili! Hinu uvi matamilu ga masetani na mizuka mihakau, uvi matamilu ga videge vihakau na kuyomesa neju.
3 For all the nations have drunk the wine of her mad sexual immorality. The kings of the earth have committed adultery with her, and the traders of the earth have grown rich from her excessive sensuality.”
Ndava muni vandu va milima yoha, vagalili kwa divayi yikali ya ukemi waki, vene vankosi vahengili ukemi nayu, na vevigulisa vindu va pamulima vapatili chiyonjokesu chivaha neju ndava ya mnogu wa kujisangalusa kwavi.”
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven calling out, “My people, come out of her, so that you don't participate in her sinful ways, and so that you don't experience her plagues.
Kangi nayuwini lwami kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga kwijova, “Vandu vangu, muwuka kwaki, muni mkoto kuvya pamonga nawu mukumbudila kwavi Chapanga, mkoto kuhamba mumotu wa magono goha wangajimika.
5 Her sins have piled up all the way to heaven, and God is very much aware of her wickedness.
Ndava muni mabudilu gaki gamahele neju, galundikini mbaka kunani kwa Chapanga, na Chapanga mweikumbuka uhakau waki.
6 Give back to her what she gave; repay her double for what she did. In her own cup mix double the trouble she mixed for others.
Mumkitila mewawa ngati cheavakitili. Muwuyisila mala zivili kwa gala geavahengili vangi. Chimemesa chikombi chaki cha divayi yaki, Muhanganisila divayi yivavanu mala zivili kuliku cheakutendekili nyenye.
7 As much as she boasted about herself and indulged her lusts, give her back just as much anguish and sorrow. She told herself, ‘I reign as queen. I am no widow; I will never be in mourning.’
Mumpela mang'ahiso na mvinisu kuwanangana na kumeka na kujikwiha kwaki neju, kuwanangana na kutama kwaki kwa ukemi. Muni akujijovela mumtima, ‘Nitama penapa ngati nkosi wa chidala, nene lipwela lepi amala nipata lepi mvinisu!’
8 Because of this her plagues will come upon her in just one day: death, mourning, and famine. She will be completely destroyed by fire, for the Lord God who condemns her has great power.
Ndava yeniyo matovilu gaki yati gakumkolela kwa ligono limonga, utamu na ungolongondi na njala. Yati iyochwa motu, muni Bambu Chapanga mweavi na uhamula ana makakala.”
9 The kings of the earth who had committed adultery with her and indulged their lusts with her will cry and mourn over her when they see the smoke of the fire that destroys her.
Vankosi va mulima vahengili ukemi nayu na kutama nayu muwumi wa ukemi yati vivemba lukumbi pevilola lyohi la muji wenuwo wewitinyika.
10 Standing off at a distance because they are afraid they will suffer the same agony as her, they say, ‘Disaster, disaster has struck Babylon, the great city! In just one hour your sentence of doom was executed!’
Viyima cha kutali ndava ya kuyogopa mang'ahiso gaki na kujova, “Lola chewing'aika muji ukulu, Babeli, muji una makakala lukumbi lwa saa yimonga ndu mbunu waku ukukolili.”
11 The traders of the earth cry and grieve over her, because nobody is buying their goods any more—
Vandu vevigulisa na kugula va mulima yati vivemba na kuwombeleza, ndava avi lepi mundu mweigula vindu vyavi kavili,
12 products made of gold, silver, gems and pearls; fine linen, purple cloth, silk, and scarlet material; all kinds of objects made of scented wood, or from ivory, or expensive woods, or bronze, iron, or marble;
avi lepi kavili wa kugula vindu vyevitenganizwi kwa zahabu yavi, feza na maganga ga mashonga gamahele na lulu na nyula zezing'asima neju na nyula za langi ya zambalau na nyula za vitambala vya halili na nyula yidung'u na vindu vya kila aina vyevitengenizwi kwa mikongo ya mashonga gamahele na vindu vya mang'elu ga ndembu na vindu vyevitenganizwi kwa shaba vya lyuma na malumalu,
13 shipments of cinnamon, spice, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and wagons, and slaves and prisoners.
na mdalasini, ndimbilu na ubani wa manemane na udi na divayi na mahuta ga zeituni na uhembe wa nganu na ng'ombi na limbelele, mutuka wa kuhutwa na falasi na vavanda hati wumi wa vandu.
14 You've lost the sweet pleasures you loved so much; all your luxurious, glittering possessions are gone—you'll never get any of them back.
Vevigulisa vindu vakumjovela, “Vindu vyoha vyabwina vyeuvili navyu viyagilii, na vindu vyamahele na ulumba vikujumbili, amala ukivilola lepi kavili!”
15 The traders who sold these things and became rich from trading with her will stand at a distance because they are afraid they will suffer the same agony as her. They will cry and grieve, saying,
Vevigulisa na kugula vapatili vindu kuhuma muji wenuwo, yati viyima kutali ndava ya wogohi wa mang'ahiso gala gakotoka kuvakolela vene yati vivemba na kujova.
16 ‘Disaster, disaster has hit the great city! She was clothed in fine linen and purple robes, and wore jewelry made of gold and gems and pearls.
Vakajova, “Lola chewing'ahika muji wenuwo mkulu. Weuyovalili kuwala nyula zezing'asima na nyula za langi ya zambalau na langi yidung'u, na kujinyambisa kwa vindu vyevitengenizwi kwa zahabu, na maganga ga mashonga gamahele na lusalu lwa lulu.
17 In just one hour all this wealth was destroyed!’ Every sea captain and everyone who travels by sea and every sailor and everyone who earns their living from the sea stood at a distance.
Mulukumbi lwa saa yimonga ndu vindu vyamahele vihalabiki!” Kangi vevilongosa watu voha na valumugendu wavi vandu voha vevihenga mahengu munyanja na vandu voha vevigulisa vindu munyanja vayimili cha kutali,
18 As they watched the smoke of the fire that destroys her, they shouted out, ‘What city could ever compare to this great city?’
yati vakuliwona lyohi la motu wula weutinyisi, vakavemba kwa lwami, “Kawaka muji wungi weuwanangana na muji uwu mkulu!”
19 They threw dust on their heads, shouting and crying and grieving, ‘Disaster, disaster has struck the great city that made every ship-owner rich because of her extravagance! In just one hour she was destroyed!’
Vajibilindwisi mulububu mitu yavi kulangisa vana mvinisu, vakavemba kwa lwami na kujova, “Lola chewing'ahika veve muji mkulu! Ndi muji woha weuvi na watu zezigenda munyanja vapatili vindu vyamahele ndava yaki. Nambu mulukumbi lumonga ndu uyagisi kila chindu!”
20 Celebrate what's happened to her, heaven and believers and apostles and prophets, for God has condemned her as she condemned you.”
Mhekelelayi, nyenye kunani kwa Chapanga! Mhekelelayi nyenye vandu va Chapanga na vamitumi na vamlota va Chapanga, ndava Chapanga akitili uhamula ndava yinu nyenye!
21 A powerful angel picked up a rock the size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, “With this kind of violence the great city of Babylon will be thrown down, and will never exist again.”
Kangi, mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga mmonga mweavi na makakala kayinula liganga livaha ngati la kuyagila, akalitaga munyanja akajova, “Chenichi ndi chewihamuliwa njwe Babeli muji mkulu yati wiwonekana lepi kavili.
22 “Never again will anyone hear music in you: the sound of harps, singers, flutes, and trumpets. Never again will craftsmen of any trade work in you. Never again will the sound of a mill be heard in you.
Lwami lwa vandu veviyimba na vabeta chitolilo vinjeke na vapyula mapenenga ziyuwanika lepi kavili mugati yaki ng'o. Kawaka fundi wa namuna yoyoha yila mweapatikini mugati yaku, amala lwami lwa liganga la kuyagila yati liyuwanika lepi kavili mugati yaku ng'o.
23 Never again will the light of a lamp shine in you. Never again will the voices of bridegroom and bride be heard in you. Your traders led the world. Through your witchcraft all the nations were deceived.
Lumuli lwa hahi lulangasa lepi kavili mugati mwaku ng'o, lwami lwa mkolo ndowa na mgegewa ndowa luyuwanika lepi kavili mugati mwaku ng'o. Vevigulisa na kugula vavi na makakala ga pamulima. Na kwa uhavi waku uvayagisi vandu va milima yoha!”
24 In her the blood of prophets and believers was found, and of all those who have been killed on the earth.”
Muji wenuwo wa Babuloni uhukumiwi ndava mugati yaki uwonikini ngasi ya vamlota va Chapanga na vandu vaki pamonga na ngasi ya vandu voha vevakomiwi pamulima.
