Revelation 5
1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sate vpon the throne, a Booke written within, and on the backside, sealed with seuen seales.
Kisha nikaona katika mkono wa kulia wa yule aliyekuwa amekaa katika kiti cha enzi, gombo lililoandikwa mbele na nyuma, na lilikuwa limetiwa mihuri saba.
2 And I sawe a strong Angell which preached with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open ye booke, and to loose the seales thereof?
Nilimwona malaika mwenye nguvu akihubiri kwa sauti kubwa, “Nani astahiliye kulifungua gombo na kuzivunja mihuri yake?”
3 And no man in heauen, nor in earth, neither vnder the earth, was able to open the Booke, neither to looke thereon.
Hakuna mtu mbinguni au duniani au chini ya dunia aliyeweza kulifungua gombo au kulisoma.
4 Then I wept much, because no man was foud worthy to open, and to reade the Booke, neither to looke thereon.
Nililia kwa uchungu kwa kuwa hakupatikana yeyote aliyestahili kulifungua gombo au kulisoma.
5 And one of the Elders saide vnto me, Weepe not: beholde, that Lion which is of the tribe of Iuda, that roote of Dauid, hath obteined to open the Booke, and to loose the seuen seales thereof.
Lakini mmoja wa wazee akaniambia, “Usilie. Tazama! Simba wa kabila ya Yuda, shina la Daudi, ameshinda, na anaweza kulifungua gombo na mihuri yake saba.”
6 Then I behelde, and loe, in the middes of the throne, and of the foure beasts, and in the mids of the Elders, stoode a Labe as though he had bene killed, which had seuen hornes, and seuen eyes, which are the seuen spirites of God, sent into all the world.
Kati ya kiti cha enzi na wenye uhai wanne na miongoni mwa wazee, niliona mwanakondoo amesimama, akionekana kama aliye uawa. Alikuwa na pembe saba na macho saba - hizi ni roho saba za Mungu zilizotumwa duniani kote.
7 And hee came, and tooke the Booke out of the right hand of him that sate vpon the throne.
Akaenda akalichukua gombo kutoka katika mkono wa kuume wa yule aliye kaa katika kiti cha enzi.
8 And when he had taken ye Booke, ye foure beasts and the foure and twenty Elders fel downe before the Lambe, hauing euery one harps and golden vials full of odours, which are the praiers of the Saintes,
Alipolichukua gombo, wenye uhai wanne na wazee ishirini na wanne wakainama hadi nchi mbele ya mwanakondoo. Kila mmoja alikuwa na kinubi na bakuli ya dhahabu iliyojaa uvumba ambayo ni maombi ya waamini.
9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthie to take the Booke, and to open the seales thereof, because thou wast killed, and hast redeemed vs to God by thy blood out of euery kinred, and tongue, and people, and nation,
Waliimba wimbo mpya: “Unastahili kulitwaa gombo na kuzifungua muhuri zake. Kwa kuwa ulichinjwa, na kwa damu yako ukamnunulia Mungu watu wa kila kabila, lugha, jamaa na taifa.
10 And hast made vs vnto our God Kings and Priests, and we shall reigne on the earth.
Ukawafanya ufalme na makuhani kwa ajili ya kumtumikia Mungu wetu, nao watatawala juu ya nchi.”
11 Then I behelde, and I heard the voice of many Angels round about the throne, and about the beastes and the Elders, and there were ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousand thousands,
Kisha nilitazama na nikasikia sauti ya malaika wengi kuzunguka kiti cha enzi - idadi yao ilikuwa 200, 000, 000 na wenye uhai na wazee.
12 Saying with a loude voice, Worthie is the Lambe that was killed to receiue power, and riches, and wisdome, and strength, and honour, and glory, and praise.
Wakasema kwa sauti kuu, “Astahili mwanakondoo ambaye amechinjwa kupokea uwezo, utajiri, hekima, nguvu, heshima, utukufu, na sifa.”
13 And al the creatures which are in heauen, and on the earth, and vnder the earth, and in the sea, and al that are in them, heard I, saying, Praise, and honour, and glory, and power be vnto him, that sitteth vpon the throne, and vnto the Lambe for euermore. (aiōn g165)
Nikasikia kila kilichoumbwa kilichokuwa mbinguni na duniani na chini ya nchi na juu ya bahari, kila kitu ndani yake kikisema, “Kwake yeye aketiye juu ya kiti cha enzi na kwa mwanakondoo, kuwe sifa, heshima, utukufu na nguvu ya kutawala milele na milele.” (aiōn g165)
14 And the foure beasts said, Amen, and the foure and twentie Elders fell downe and worshipped him that liueth for euermore.
Wenye uhai wanne wakasema, “Amina!” na wazee wakainama chini na kuabudu.
