< Revelation 7 >
1 AND after these things I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, to hold back the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, neither on the sea, nor on any tree.
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, ne ndaba bamalayika bana nga bayimiridde ku njuyi ennya ez’ensi, nga bakutte empewo ennya ez’ensi zireme okukunta, waleme kubaawo mpewo ekunta ku nsi, wadde ku nnyanja wadde ku muti gwonna.
2 And I saw another angel ascending from the rising of the sun, having the seal of the living God; and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels to whom power was given for them to hurt the earth and the sea,
Ne ndaba malayika omulala ng’ava ebuvanjuba ng’akutte akabonero k’envumbo aka Katonda omulamu, n’ayogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka ng’agamba bamalayika abana abaali baweereddwa obuyinza okwonoona ensi n’ennyanja nti,
3 saying, Hurt not the earth, nor the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
“Temukola kintu kyonna, ekinaayonoona ensi, n’ennyanja oba emiti, okutuusa nga tumaze okuteeka akabonero k’envumbo ka Katonda akakulu ku byenyi by’abaweereza ba Katonda waffe.”
4 And I heard the number of those who were sealed; one hundred and forty and four thousand were sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel.
Awo ne mpulira omuwendo gw’abo abaateekebwako akabonero k’envumbo nga baali emitwalo kkumi n’ena mu enkumi nnya okuva mu bika ekkumi n’ebibiri ebya Isirayiri.
5 Of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Reuben were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Gad were sealed twelve thousand.
Ab’omu kika kya Yuda omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Lewubeeni omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Gaadi omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri,
6 Of the tribe of Aser were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Nephtalim were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Manasseh were sealed twelve thousand.
ab’omu kika kya Aseri omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Nafutaali omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Manaase omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri,
7 Of the tribe of Simeon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Levi were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Issachar were sealed twelve thousand.
ab’omu kika kya Simyoni omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Leevi omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Isakaali omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri,
8 Of the tribe of Zebulon were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Joseph were sealed twelve thousand. Of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
ab’omu kika kya Zebbulooni omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Yusufu omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Benyamini omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri. Abo be baateekebwako akabonero k’envumbo.
9 After these things I looked, and beheld a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation, and tribe, and people, and tongue, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches in their hands
Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo ne ndaba, era laba, ekibiina ky’abantu ekinene ennyo nga tebasoboka na kubalika, nga bava mu buli nsi na buli kika, na buli ggwanga na buli lulimi, nga bayimiridde mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka ne mu maaso g’Omwana gw’Endiga nga bambadde ebyambalo ebyeru nga balina n’enkindu mu ngalo zaabwe.
10 and crying with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God that sitteth on the throne, and to the Lamb.
Ne boogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nga bagamba nti, “Obulokozi bwa Katonda waffe atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka era bwa Mwana gw’Endiga.”
11 And all the angels stood in a circle about the throne, and the presbyters and the four living beings, and fell on their faces before the throne, and worshipped God,
Awo bamalayika bonna ne bayimirira nga beetoolodde entebe ey’obwakabaka n’abakadde era n’ebiramu ebina, ne bavuunama mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka ng’ebyenyi byabwe biri wansi ne basinza Katonda.
12 saying, Amen: blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might be to our God for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
Ne bayimba nti, “Amiina! Okutenderezebwa, n’ekitiibwa, n’amagezi, n’okwebazibwa, n’ettendo, n’obuyinza, n’amaanyi, bibe eri Katonda waffe emirembe n’emirembe. Amiina!” (aiōn )
13 And one of the presbyters addressed me, saying, Who are these persons who are clothed in white robes? and from whence came they?
Awo omu ku bakadde n’ambuuza nti, “Bano abambadde ebyambalo ebyeru obamanyi, era omanyi gye bava?”
14 And I said to him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are persons who are come out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made their robes white in the blood of the Lamb.
Ne nziramu nti. “Mukama wange, gw’omanyi.” N’aŋŋamba nti, “Bano be baayita mu kubonaabona okunene, ne bayoza ebyambalo byabwe ne babitukuza mu musaayi gw’Omwana gw’Endiga.
15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
Kyebavudde “babeera wano mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka eya Katonda nga bamusinza emisana n’ekiro mu Yeekaalu ye. Oyo atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka, anaaberanga nabo ng’abalabirira.
16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun scorch them, nor any burning heat.
Tebaliddayo kulumwa njala wadde ennyonta, newaakubadde omusana okubookya wadde ekyokya ekirala kyonna;
17 Because the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will feed them, as a shepherd, and lead them unto living fountains of waters; and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.
kubanga Omwana gw’Endiga ayimiridde mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka, y’anaabeeranga omusumba waabwe era y’anaabakulemberanga okubatwala eri ensulo ez’amazzi ag’obulamu. Era Katonda alisangula buli zziga mu maaso gaabwe.”
