Revelation 17
1 AND there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters:
Yumu gwa wantumintumi wa kumpindi saba walii, yawaweriti na mabakuli saba kiziti na kang'ambiriti, “Gwizi na neni hanukulanguziyi utoza yakapananitwi mndiyandiya mkulu ulii, yakalivagiti pambeku na mashi gavuwa.
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication.
Wafalumi wa pasipanu watenditi uhumba pamuhera nayomberi na wantu yawalikala pasipanu walowera divayi ya uhumba wakuwi.”
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
Shakapanu Rohu gwa Mlungu kanjegiti na ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kanjegiti kushiwara. Kweni aku numwona mdala kalivagiti pankanyama mkalipa msheri. Nkanyama mkalipa ayu kaweriti kalembwa kila pahala matawu ga kumwigilanga Mlungu, kaweriti na mituwi saba na magoli lilongu.
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:
Mdala ayu kaweriti kavala nguwu langi ya zambalawu na nsheri, kaweriti kalihelipiziya kwa zaabu na vintu vinyawitwi kwa mabuwi ga beyi nkulu na mabuwi ga lulu. Mumawoku mwakuwi kaweriti na lutekeru lwa zaabu lwaluweliti lumema makalaliru na vitwatira vidoda vya uhumba wakuwi.
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Pashiwunji shakuwi palembitwi visoweru vya litawu lyana mana ya bada, “Babiloni mkulu, mawu gwa wandiyandiya na gwa vitwatira vyoseri vya kukalaziya nentu pasipanu.”
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration.
Numwona mdala ayu kalowera mwazi gwa wantu wa Mlungu na mwazi gwa wantu yawalagitwi toziya ya kuwera wakapitawu kwa Yesu. Panumwoniti nulikangashiti nentu.
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns.
Kumbiti ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kang'ambira, “Iwera hashi gwankulikangasha. Neni hanukugambiri mana ya bada yaififikiti ya mdala ayu na nkanyama mkalipa ayu yakampapiti, nkanyama mkalipa yakawera na mituwi saba na magoli lilongu.
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, and is not, and yet is. (Abyssos g12)
Nkanyama mkalipa ayu yagumwoniti, kaweriti mkomu pakwanja kumbiti vinu kahowa. Kayi kapakwegera kulawa mulirindi lyalihera upeleru kugenda kuharabisiwa. Wantu yawalikala pasipanu hawalikangashi, wantu woseri matawu gawu galembitwi ndiri mushintola sha ukomu kwanjira kunyawa kwa pasipanu, hawalikangashi kumwona nkanyama mkalipa ayu kwanja kalikaliti, shakapanu kafuwa na vinu hakalawili kayi. (Abyssos g12)
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
“Panu pafiruwa mahala na luhala! Mituwi saba ayi ndo vigongu saba mdala ayu kalivagiti. Mituwi ayi viraa ndo wafalumi saba.
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
Pakati pa wafalumi saba, wamhanu yawagamiliti kala, yumu kankali kankukolamlima na yumonga ulii kankali kwiza na pakasoka kafiruwa hakakolimlima kwa shipindi shididini.
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
Na nkanyama mkalipa ayu yakaweriti kankulikala kwanja, kumbiti vinu kalikala ndiri kayi ndo mfalumi gwa nani na yomberi viraa ndo yumu gwawu gwa walii saba na kuharabisiwa.
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
“Magoli galii lilongu yagugawoniti ndo wafalumi lilongu weni haweniyanji kukolamlima. Kumbiti hawapananwi uwezu wa kukolamlima kwa shipindi sha saa yimu pamuhera na nkanyama mkalipa ulii.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
Woseri awa lilongu wawera na nfiru yimu na hawamupanani nkanyama mkalipa ulii makakala na uwezu wawu.
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Hawalikomangi na Mwanakondolu na kumbiti Mwanakondolu pamuhera na walii yakawashemiti na kuwasyagula weni ndo waminika hakawakanki toziya yomberi ndo Mtuwa gwa watuwa na Mfalumi gwa wafalumi.”
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kang'ambira vilaa, “Mashi galii yagugawoniti palii pakalivagiti mndiyandiya ulii, ndo mapinga ga wantu wa kulawa kila isi, ukowu na luga.
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
Na magoli lilongu galii gagugawoniti na nkanyama mkalipa ulii hawamkalalili mndiyandiya ulii. Hawatoli kila shintu shakawera nashu na kumleka shivula hera, hawalii vinofu vya nshimba yakuwi na kumlunguziya kwa motu.
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
Toziya Mlungu kalekera mumyoyu mwawu nfiru ya kutenda mafiliru gakuwi, su walijimirani womberi kwa womberi na kumpanana nkanyama mkalipa ayu makakala ga kukolamlima mpaka galii gagatakuliti Mlungu pagatendeka.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
“Na mdala ulii yagumwoniti ndo lushi lulii lukulu lwaluwera na ukukolamlima wawafalumi wa pasipanu.”
