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:
Lino mungelo umo pa bangelo basanu ne babili basa balikukute ndilo shisanu ne shibili walang'ambileti, “Kwesa ndikuleshe cisubulo Lesa nceti amupe usa mutukashi mufule usa munshi unene webakwa pa menshi angi.
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.
Usa mufule wonanga ne bami ba pacishi capanshi, kayi wakolweshanga bantu waini wa bufule bwakendi.”
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.
Mpondalekatwa ne Mushimu wa Lesa, mungelo walantwala ku cinyika. Uko nkondalabona mutukashi kaliwatanta pa cinyama cifubela, calikuba calembwa maina mubili wonse akutukana Lesa. Kayi calikukute mitwi isanu ne ibili ne meca likumi.
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:
Mutukashi uyu walikuba wafwala byakufwala bya fubeluka ne byafubela byadula, walikobaika malungu a golide amushobo uliwonse. Walikukute nkomeshi ya golide mu cikasa cakululyo yesula ne bintu byasesemya, kayi byasafwana, bya cabufule bwakendi.
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Pa nkumo pakendi palikuba palembwa lina lyashupa kulipandulula, lyakwambeti, “Babulo waya lulumbi, nyabo wa bafule bonse ne bintu bishikusesemya byonse bya mu cishi capanshi.”
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.
Kayi ndalabona mutukashi uyo katantalika, cebo ca milopa njalanwa ya bantu baswepa, kayi ne ya bakamboni ba Yesu mbobalashina. Mpondalamubona ndalakankamana.
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.
Lino mungelo walanjipusheti, “Inga nicani ncolakankamananga?” Ninkwambile sha mutukashi uyu, ne sha cinyama ncatantapo ne sha mitwi isanu ne ibili kayi ne sha meca likumi asa.
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)
Cinyama ncolabono calikubako, kayi cilashimangana, cilipepi kupula mucisengu, nomba nicikenga kuya kufwa. Lino bantu bekala pa cishi capanshi, babula kulembwa maina abo mu libuku lya bayumi kacitana cilengwa cishi, bakaboneti cinyama calikubako, calashimangana, kayeti cilesa, nibakakankamane. (Abyssos g12)
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
“Pano epalayandikinga mano ne kunyumfwishisha. Mitwi isanu ne ibili isa pekala mutukashi, ilemanininga milundu isanu ne ibili, kayi iyi mitwi isanu ne ibili ilemanininga bami basanu ne babili.
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.
Bami basanu bafwa kendi, umo ucendelesha, wakupwililisha nkana esa. Nomba akesa nakekalowa kacindi kang'ana.”
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition.
“Cinyama cisa calikubako, kayi calashimangana cilemanininga mwami wa cisanu ne citatu, uyo eti akapule mu mitwi isanu ne ibili, lino neye nakonongeke.”
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.
“Nawo meca likumi ngowalabona alemanininga bami likumi batana batatika kwendelesha. Nabo nibakapewe bwami, nibakendeleshe pamo ne cinyama kwa kacindi kang'anowa.
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
Bami aba bali likumi nibakabe ne muyeyo umo, nibakape ngofu ne bwendeleshi ku cinyama.
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.
Nibakalwane ne Mwana mbelele, lino Mwana mbelele pamo ne bantu bakwiwa bakendi, basalwa, kayi bakute lushomo, nibakabakome, pakwinga Yesu eMwami wa bami bonse.”
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
Kayi mungelo walang'ambileti, “Asa menshi ngowabona pekala mutukashi mufule, alemanininga bishi ne bantu bankanda shapusana kayi ne milaka.”
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.
Nawo asa meca likumi ne cinyama ncowalabona nibikamupele mutukashi mufule, ne kumulamuna bintu byonse, ne kumufulula matakosha, nibakalye minyemfu yakendi ne kumutenta pa mulilo.
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.
Pakwinga Lesa nakabike kuyanda kwakendi mu myoyo yabo kwambeti basebensele pamo ne cinyama pakucipa ngofu shakwendelesha mpaka maswi a Lesa akakwanilishiwe.
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
“Mutukashi ngowabonanga ni mushi wayampuwo ulendeleshenga bami bonse pa cishi capanshi.”
