Revelation 12
1 AND there appeared a great sign in the heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
Dzesi gã wɔnuku aɖe dze le dziƒo. Nyɔnu aɖe si ta ɣe abe avɔ ene, ɣleti le eƒe afɔ te, eye wòɖɔ fiakuku si ŋu ɣletivi wuieve le la va do.
2 and being with child, she cried out in travailing pain, and in anguish to be delivered.
Fu nɔ eƒo, eye wònɔ ɣli dom esi wònɔ ku lém be yeadzi vi.
3 And there appeared another sign in the heaven; and lo! a great fiery dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads seven crowns.
Emegbe la, dzesi bubu gadze le dziƒo: ʋɔ driba gã dzẽ aɖe si to ta adre, dzo ewo, eye fiakuku adre le tawo nɛ la va do.
4 And his tail drew a third part of the stars of heaven, and cast them on the earth: and the dragon placed himself before the woman who was ready to be delivered, that when she should bring forth, he might devour her babe.
Eƒe asike kplɔ ɣletivi siwo le dziŋgɔli ŋu la ƒe mama etɔ̃ ƒe ɖeka, eye wòhe wo ƒu gbe ɖe anyigba. Ʋɔ driba la nɔ tsitre ɖe nyɔnu si nɔ ku lém la ŋkume, eye wòle klalo be yeavuvu vidzĩ si nyɔnu la adzi la.
5 And she brought forth a male child, who should rule the nations with an iron sceptre: and her infant was caught up to God, and his throne.
Nyɔnu la dzi ŋutsuvi, ame si ava aɖu dukɔwo katã dzi kple gatikplɔ. Tete woxɔ ɖevi la le esi kaba tsɔ yi ɖe Mawu kple eƒe fiazikpui la gbɔe.
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that she might there be fed during a thousand two hundred and sixty days.
Emegbe la, nyɔnu la si yi gbedzi le teƒe si Mawu dzra ɖo ɖi nɛ, afi si woakpɔ eta le hena ŋkeke akpe ɖeka alafa eve blaade.
7 Then was there war in the heaven: Michael and his angels warred against the dragon; and the dragon warred and his angels,
Eye aʋa dzɔ le dziƒo. Maikel kple eƒe mawudɔlawo wɔ aʋa kple ʋɔ driba la, eye ʋɔ driba la kple eƒe dɔlawo hã wɔ aʋa kpli wo.
8 and they could not prevail; neither was there any more place found for them in the heaven.
Ke ʋɔ driba la ƒe ŋusẽ metri akɔ o, ale wobu woƒe nɔƒe le dziƒo.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, who is called the Devil, and Satan, who deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
Wotsɔ ʋɔ driba gã la, da xoxo si woyɔna be gbɔgbɔ vɔ̃ alo Abosam, ame si kplɔ xexea me katã trae la ƒu gbe. Wotsɔ eya ŋutɔ kple eƒe dɔlawo ƒu gbe ɖe anyigba.
10 And I heard a great voice saying in the heaven, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; because the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accused them before our God day and night.
Tete mese gbe sesẽ aɖe tso dziƒo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Azɔ ko míaƒe Mawu la ƒe ɖeɖe, ŋusẽ kple fiaɖuƒe la kple eƒe Kristo ƒe dziɖuɖu ƒe ŋusẽ la va ɖo, elabena wotsɔ mía nɔviawo nu tsola, ame si nɔa wo nu tsom zã kple keli le Mawu ŋkume la ƒu gbe ɖe anyigba.
11 And they have vanquished him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto death.
Woɖu edzi to Alẽvi la ƒe ʋu kple woƒe ɖaseɖiɖi me. Womelɔ̃ woƒe agbe nenema gbegbe be woayi sisi ge le ku nu o,
12 Therefore be exceeding glad ye heavens, and ye who dwell in them. Wo to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.
eya ta dzi nedzɔ mi, mi dziƒowo kple mi ame siwo nɔ wo me la! Ke baba na anyigba kple atsiaƒu, elabena Abosam ɖi va mia gbɔ! Dzi le ekum vevie, elabena enyae be yeƒe ɣeyiɣi la le kpuie.”
13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast out into the earth, he persecuted the woman which had brought forth the male child.
Esi ʋɔ driba la kpɔ be wotsɔ ye ƒu gbe ɖe anyigba la, eti nyɔnu si dzi ŋutsuvi la yome.
14 And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she should fly into the wilderness, unto her place, where she is supported there for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Wotsɔ hɔ̃ gã aɖe ƒe aʋala eveawo na nyɔnu la, ale be wòate ŋu adzo ayi ɖe teƒe si wodzra ɖo ɖi nɛ le gbedzi, afi si woakpɔ eta le hena ɣeyiɣi aɖe, ɣeyiɣiwo kple ɣeyiɣi afã le afi si ʋɔ driba la mate ŋu ade o la.
15 And the serpent cast out after the woman, from his mouth water, as a river, that he might sweep her away with the flood.
Tete ʋɔ driba la tu tsi to eƒe nu me, esi ɖuɖu abe tɔsisi ene, ne wòaɖɔ alé nyɔnu la, eye tɔsisi la nakplɔe adzoe.
16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
Ke anyigba la kpe ɖe nyɔnu la ŋu esi wòke eƒe nu hemi tɔsisi si ʋɔ driba la tu to eƒe nu me la.
17 And the dragon was incensed against the woman, and went forth to make war against the remnant of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and hold the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Dzi ku ʋɔ driba la vevie ɖe nyɔnu la ŋu, eye wòyi be yeaɖawɔ aʋa kple eƒe dzidzimevi mamlɛawo, ame siwo ɖoa to Mawu kple eƒe sededewo, eye wolé Yesu ƒe ɖaseɖiɖi me ɖe asi sesĩe la.
