< Revelation 1 >
1 The Revelation of Yahushua the Messiah, which YHWH gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
Ũyũ nĩguo ũguũrio wa Jesũ Kristũ, ũrĩa Ngai aamũguũrĩirie nĩguo onie ndungata ciake maũndũ marĩa makiriĩ gwĩkĩka o ica ikuhĩ. Aamenyithanirie ũhoro ũcio na ũndũ wa gũtũma mũraika wake kũrĩ ndungata yake Johana,
2 Who bare record of the word of YHWH, and of the testimony of Yahushua the Messiah, and of all things that he saw.
ũrĩa nake wacookire kumbũra ũhoro ũrĩa wothe oonire, naguo nĩ ũhoro wa kiugo kĩa Ngai na ũira wa Jesũ Kristũ.
3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ mũndũ ũrĩa ũthomaga ciugo cia ũrathi ũyũ, na kũrathimwo nĩ andũ arĩa maiguaga ũhoro ũyũ na makaiga ngoro-inĩ ciao ũhoro ũrĩa wandĩkĩtwo ũrathi-inĩ ũyũ, tondũ ihinda nĩrĩkuhĩrĩirie.
4 John to the seven assemblies which are in Asia: Favour be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
Nĩ niĩ Johana, Ndĩratũmĩra makanitha marĩa mũgwanja marĩ kũu bũrũri wa Asia ũhoro ũyũ: Atĩrĩrĩ, wega na thayũ irogĩa na inyuĩ kuuma kũrĩ ũrĩa ũrĩ ho, na nowe warĩ ho, na nowe ũgooka, na kuuma kũrĩ maroho mũgwanja marĩa maikaraga mbere ya gĩtĩ gĩake kĩa ũnene,
5 And from Yahushua the Messiah, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
o na kuuma kũrĩ Jesũ Kristũ, mũira ũrĩa mwĩhokeku, o we irigithathi rĩa arĩa akuũ, na mwathi wa athamaki a thĩ. Kũrĩ ũcio ũtwendete, na agatuohorithia kuuma mehia-inĩ maitũ na ũndũ wa thakame yake,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto his Elohim and Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. amein. (aiōn )
na agatũtua andũ a ũthamaki na athĩnjĩri-Ngai, nĩguo tũtungatage Ngai na Ithe wake: ũgooci na wathani irogĩa kũrĩ we tene na tene! Ameni. (aiōn )
7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, amein.
Atĩrĩrĩ, nĩ gũũka arooka na matu, na gũtirĩ riitho rĩtakamuona, o na andũ arĩa maamũtheecire nĩmakamuona; nao andũ othe a thĩ nĩmagacakaya nĩ ũndũ wake. Ũguo nĩguo gũgaatuĩka! Ameni.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith YHWH, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Mwathani Ngai ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Alifa o na Omega, ũrĩa ũrĩ ho, na nowe warĩ ho, na nowe ũgooka, o we Mwene-Hinya-Wothe.”
9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Yahushua the Messiah, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of YHWH, and for the testimony of Yahushua the Messiah.
Niĩ, Johana, mũrũ wa ithe wanyu, na mũgwatanĩri na inyuĩ thĩinĩ wa mĩnyamaro, na ũthamaki, na gũkirĩrĩria tũũmĩrĩirie, o iria irĩ ciitũ thĩinĩ wa Jesũ, ndaarĩ gĩcigĩrĩra-inĩ kĩa iria kĩrĩa gĩĩtagwo Patimo tondũ wa Ũhoro wa Ngai na ũira wa Jesũ.
10 I was in the Spirit on the day of YHWH, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
Na rĩrĩ, ndaarĩ thĩinĩ wa Roho Mũthenya wa Mwathani, na niĩ ngĩigua mũgambo mũnene thuutha wakwa warĩ ta wa karumbeta,
11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven assemblies which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
ũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Andĩka ũrĩa ũkuona ibuku-inĩ rĩa gĩkũnjo, na ũcooke ũũtũmĩre makanitha marĩa mũgwanja: nĩmo kanitha wa Efeso, na wa Simurina, na wa Perigamo, na wa Thuatira, na wa Saride, na wa Filadelifia, na wa Laodikia.”
12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
Na niĩ ngĩĩhũgũra nĩguo nyone mũgambo ũcio wanjaragĩria. Na hĩndĩ ĩrĩa ndehũgũrire, ngĩona mĩtĩ mũgwanja ya thahabu ya kũigĩrĩra matawa,
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
na gatagatĩ ka mĩtĩ ĩyo nĩ haarĩ na mũndũ “wahaanaga ta mũrũ wa mũndũ,” wehumbĩte nguo yamũkinyĩte o nyarĩrĩ, na akeoha mũcibi wa thahabu gĩthũri.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
Naguo mũtwe wake na njuĩrĩ yake ciarĩ njerũ cua ta guoya wa ngʼondu, cierũhĩte o ta ira, namo maitho make maahaanaga ta nĩnĩmbĩ cia mwaki.
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
Namo magũrũ make maahaanaga ta gĩcango gĩgũkenga kĩrĩ mwaki-inĩ wa aturi, naguo mũgambo wake watariĩ ta mũrurumo wa maaĩ maingĩ.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
Guoko-inĩ gwake kwa ũrĩo aanyiitĩte njata mũgwanja, na kuuma kanua-inĩ gake hakoima rũhiũ rwa njora rũũgĩ mĩena yeerĩ. Naguo ũthiũ wake watariĩ ta riũa rĩrĩa rĩarĩte mũno.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Rĩrĩa ndaamuonire ngĩgwa magũrũ-inĩ make ta mũndũ mũkuũ. Nake akĩnjigĩrĩra guoko gwake kwa ũrĩo, akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Tiga gwĩtigĩra. Nĩ niĩ wa Mbere, na ni niĩ wa Kũrigĩrĩria.
18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, amein; and have the keys of hell and of death. (aiōn , Hadēs )
Nĩ niĩ Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Muoyo; nĩndakuĩte, na rĩu ngũtũũra muoyo nginya tene na tene! Na nĩ niĩ ndĩ na cabi cia gĩkuũ na Kwa Ngoma. (aiōn , Hadēs )
19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
“Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, andĩka maũndũ marĩa wona, marĩa marĩ kuo rĩu na marĩa magooka thuutha-inĩ.
20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven assemblies.
Nayo hitho ya njata icio mũgwanja wonire guoko-inĩ gwakwa kwa ũrĩo, na ya mĩtĩ ĩyo mũgwanja ya thahabu ya kũigĩrĩra matawa nĩ ĩno: Njata icio mũgwanja nĩ araika a makanitha marĩa mũgwanja, nayo mĩtĩ ĩyo mũgwanja ya kũigĩrĩra matawa nĩ makanitha macio mũgwanja.
