Revelation 9
1 AND the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. (Abyssos g12)
Mme moengele wa botlhano a letsa torompeta ya gagwe mme ka bona mongwe yo o wetseng mo lefatsheng a tswa kwa legodimong, mme ene a bo a neetswe dikopololo tsa molete o o se nang bolekanngo. (Abyssos g12)
2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)
Ya re a o bula, mosi wa tswa jaaka ekete o tswa mo leisong la boubelo jo bogolo. Mme letsatsi le phefo tsa fifadiwa ke mosi. (Abyssos g12)
3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
Mme tsie ya tswa mo mosing ya fologela mo lefatsheng mme ya newa nonofo ya go loma jaaka diphepheng.
4 And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
E ne ya laelwa gore e se ka ya tlhokofatsa bojang kgotsa dijalo kgotsa ditlhare mme e tlhasele batho ba ba senang lotshwao lwa Modimo mo diphatlheng tsa bone.
5 And to them it was given that they should not kill them, but that they should be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man.
E se ka ya ba bolaya, fa e se go ba tlhokofatsa selekanyo sa dikgwedi tse tlhano ka tlhokofatso e e tshwanang le go loma ga phepheng.
6 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them.
Mo malatsing ao batho ba tlaa leka go ipolaya mme ga ba kitla ba kgona, loso ga lo kitla lo tla. Ba tlaa eletsa go swa, mme loso lo tlaa sia!
7 And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men.
Tsie e ne e lebega jaaka dipitse tse di baakanyeditsweng ntwa. E ne e na le sengwe se lebega jaaka dirwalo tsa gauta mo ditlhogong tsa yone, mme difatlhogo tsa yone di ntse jaaka batho.
8 And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions.
Moriri wa yone o le mo leele jaaka wa basadi, le meno a yone a tshwana le a ditau.
9 And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.
E ne e apere diiphemelo tsa sehuba tse di ntseng jaaka tsa tshipi, le diphuka tsa yone di suma jaaka mophato wa dipitse tse di siamelang ntweng.
10 And they had tails like unto scorpions, and there were stings in their tails: and their power was to hurt men five months.
E ne e na le megatla e e lomang jaaka diphepheng, mme nonofo ya yone ya go tlhokofatsa, e e e neetsweng selekanyo sa dikgwedi tse tlhano, e ne e le mo megatleng ya yone.
11 And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)
Kgosi ya yone ke kgosana ya molete o o senang bolekanngo e leina la yone e leng Abadone, ka Sehebera, mme ka Segerika ke Apolione (mme e ne e bidiwa Mosenyi ka Setswana). (Abyssos g12)
12 One woe is past; and, behold, there come two woes more hereafter.
Therego ya ntlha jaanong e a fela, mme go na le tse pedi tse di tlang!
13 And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God,
Moengele wa borataro a letsa torompeta ya gagwe mme ka utlwa lentswe le bua mo dinakeng tse nne tsa sebeso sa gauta se se leng fa pele ga setilo sa Bogosi,
14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.
le raya moengele wa borataro le re, “Golola baengele ba le bane ba ba boitshegang ba ba golegilweng fa nokeng e kgolo ya Yuferatase.”
15 And the four angels were loosed, which were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, for to slay the third part of men.
Ba ne ba baakanyeditswe yone ngwaga eo le kgwedi le letsatsi le oura eo, mme jaanong ba ne ba gololwa go bolaya karolo ya boraro ya batho botlhe.
16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
Mme ka utlwa kitsiso ya palo ya one, mophato wa ntwa wa didikadike tse di makgolo a mabedi, mme ka utlwa kitsiso ya palo ya one.
17 And thus I saw the horses in the vision, and them that sat on them, having breastplates of fire, and of jacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were as the heads of lions; and out of their mouths issued fire and smoke and brimstone.
Ka bona dipitse tsa bone di bewa fa pele ga me mo ponatshegelong ya me; bapalami ba tsone ba ne ba apere diiphemelo tsa sehuba tse di khibidu, e tswa dingwe di ne di le botala jwa legodimo, tse dingwe di le di tshetlha. Ditlhogo tsa dipitse di ne di tshwana le tsa ditau, mme mosi le molelo le selefera e e tukang di tswa mo melomong ya tsone, di bolaya karolo ya boraro ya batho botlhe.
18 By these three was the third part of men killed, by the fire, and by the smoke, and by the brimstone, which issued out of their mouths.
19 For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
Nonofo ya tsone ya loso e ne e se mo melomong ya tsone fela, le mo megatleng e ne e le teng, gonne megatla ya tsone e ne e tshwana le ya ditlhogo tsa dinoga tse di lomang go ntsha dintho tse di botlhoko.
20 And the rest of the men which were not killed by these plagues yet repented not of the works of their hands, that they should not worship devils, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and of wood: which neither can see, nor hear, nor walk:
Mme batho ba ba neng ba setse, morago ga dipetso tse, ba bo ba ntse ba gana go obamela Modimo! Ba se ka ba bakela go obamela mewa e e maswe, le medimo ya bone ya disetwa e e dirilweng ka gauta le selefera, kgotlho, leje le logong, e e sa boneng e e sa utlweng le fa e le go tsamaya!
21 Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their sorceries, nor of their fornication, nor of their thefts.
Le gone ga ba a ka ba fetola megopolo ya bone le maikutlo, dipolao tsa bone tsotlhe le boloi, boitshekologo jwa bone le bogodu.
