< Revelation 12 >
1 And there appeared a great wonder in heauen: A woman clothed with the sunne, and the moone was vnder her feete, and vpon her head a crowne of twelue starres.
Nipele, chimanyisyo chakusimosya chawoneche kwinani. Kwaliji ni jwankongwe jwambwechekwe lyuŵa ni lwesi pa sajo syakwe, ni pantwe pakwe paliji ni chindu mpela singwa jajikolochekwe ni ndondwa kumi na mbili.
2 And she was with childe, and cried traueiling in birth, and was pained readie to be deliuered.
Nombe jwankongwe jo ŵaliji pa chiilu. Nipele, ŵaliji nkulila ligongo lya kupotekwa ni chilungusi cha kuligopola.
3 And there appeared another wonder in heaue: for beholde, a great red dragon hauing seuen heads, and ten hornes, and seuen crownes vpon his heads:
Chimanyisyo chine chawoneche kwinani. Kwaliji ni lijoka lyekulungwa lyechejeu, lyana mitwe saba ni misengo likumi. Pantwe wauli wose paliji ni chindu mpela singwa.
4 And his taile drew the thirde part of the starres of heauen, and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman, which was ready to be deliuered, to deuoure her childe, when shee had brought it foorth.
Nchila wa lijoka lila, ukujiuta liunjili limo mwa maunjili gatatu ga ndondwa sya kwiunde ni kusiponya pa chilambo. Lijoka lyekulungwa lila lyajimi paujo pa jwankongwe jula juŵaliji chile kuŵeleka kuti nkuŵeleka pe, akamile kanache kakwe.
5 So shee brought foorth a man childe, which should rule all nations with a rod of yron: and that her childe was taken vp vnto God and to his throne.
Nipele jwankongwe jo ŵaligopwele mwanache jwannume, juŵaŵichikwe chile kuti ŵalamule ŵandu ŵa ilambo yose kwa nkongojo wa chisyano. Mwanache jo ŵanyakulikwe ni kunjausya kwa Akunnungu, pa chitengu chao cha umwenye.
6 And the woman fled into wildernes where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feede her there a thousande, two hundreth and three score dayes.
Jwankongwe jula ŵautuchile kwiuto kwangali ŵandu. Liuto liŵampanganyichisye Akunnungu kuti agosekwe kweleko, kwa moŵa elufu moja mia mbili ni sitini.
7 And there was a battell in heauen, Michael and his Angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels.
Nipele, kwaliji ni ngondo kwinani. Che Mikaeli, katumetume jwankulu jwa kwinani ni achikatumetume achinjakwe ŵa kwinani ŵamenyene ni lijoka lila, lijoka lila pampepe ni ŵakutumichila ŵakwe lyamenyene nawo.
8 But they preuailed not, neither was their place found any more in heauen.
Nambo lijoka lila ni ŵakutumichila ŵakwe ŵaputikwe, nipele ŵatopolekwe kwinani.
9 And the great dragon, that olde serpent, called the deuil and Satan, was cast out, which deceiueth all the world: he was euen cast into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Lijoka lyalikulungwa lila, lyaponyekwe paasa. Lyele ni lijoka lya kalakala lyalikuwilanjikwa Jwachigongomalo pane Shetani, jwakwalambusya ŵandu ŵa chilambo chose. Jwaponyekwe pachilambo, pampepe ni ŵakutumichila ŵakwe wose.
10 Then I heard a loude voyce in heauen, saying, Now is saluation, and strength, and the kingdome of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast downe, which accused them before our God day and night.
Nipele napilikene liloŵe lyalikulungwa kwinani lichitiji, “Sambano ukulupusyo wa Akunnungu uiche! Sambano ukulupusyo uiche ni machili ni umwenye wa Akunnungu ŵetu ni ulamusi wa Kilisito jwasagulikwe aŵe Jwakuwombola! Pakuŵa ajula jwakwaŵechetela achalongo achinjetu paujo pa Akunnungu aponyekwe paasi. Jwelejo akwaŵechetela muusi ni chilo.
11 But they ouercame him by that blood of that Lambe, and by that worde of their testimonie, and they loued not their liues vnto the death.
Achalongo achinjetu wo ŵampundile Shetani kwa machili ga miasi ja Mwanangondolo ni kwa kwasalila ŵandu ŵane umboni nkati chikulupi chao ku Che Yesu. Nganaunonyela umi wao, ŵaliji chile kuutyosya mpaka kuwa.
12 Therefore reioyce, ye heauens, and ye that dwell in them. Wo to the inhabitants of the earth, and of the sea: for the deuill is come downe vnto you, which hath great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.
Kwayele, nsengwe mmwe kwinani ni wose ŵakutama mwelemo. Nambo, ulaje kwa chilambo ni bahali, pakuŵa Ibilisi antuluchile ali ni lutumbilo lwalukulungwa, pakuŵa akumanyilila kuti gaasigalile moŵa kanandipe.”
13 And when the dragon sawe that hee was cast vnto the earth, he persecuted the woman which had brought forth the man childe.
Lijoka lyo palyaimanyilile kuti liponyekwe paasi pa chilambo, lyatandite kummutusya jwankongwe juŵambeleche mwanache jwannume jula.
14 But to the woman were giuen two wings of a great eagle, that she might flie into the wildernes, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and halfe a time, from the presence of the serpent.
Nambo jwankongwe jula ŵapegwile mapapiko gaŵili nti ga kapungu jwankulungwa, kuti akombole kuguluka mpaka mwipululu, kwiuto kuchagosekwe uchenene, kuti agosekwe kwa yaka itatu ni miesi sita, kwati lijoka lila ngalikombola kwika.
15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water after the woman, like a flood, that he might cause her to be caried away of the flood.
Ni lyele lijoka lyakopwesye meesi gamajinji kutyochela mu kang'wa mwakwe mpela lusulo, kuti gankumbe jwankongwe jo.
16 But the earth holpe the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swalowed vp the flood, which the dragon had cast out of his mouth.
Nambo litaka lyankamwisye jwankongwe jo, litaka lyaunukwiche mpela kang'wa ni kugamila meesi gagakopweche nkang'wa mwa lijoka.
17 Then the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went and made warre with the remnant of her seede, which keepe the comaundements of God, and haue the testimonie of Iesus Christ.
Lijoka lyantumbilile jwankongwe jula, lyajawile kukumenyana ni iŵelesi ine ya jwankongwe jo, yaani ŵakugajitichisya makanyo ga Akunnungu ni ŵakuukamulichisya umboni nkati usyene wausasile Che Yesu.
