Revelation 1
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God 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:
Gweguno ni nng'ibhulo gwa a Yeshu Kilishitu gubhapegwilwe na a Nnungu, nkupinga bhaalanguyanje bhatumishi bhabho indu ipinga koposhela shangupe. Bhashinkulangula yene indui kwa kuntuma malaika jwabho kwa a Yowana bhatumishi bhabho,
2 Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
bhenebho bhakong'ondele ga kila shindu shibhashibhwene, ga lilobhe lya a Nnungu na ukong'ondelo gwa a Yeshu Kilishitu.
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.
Apegwe mboka jwene akwaashomelanga nnikanisha malobhe ga gweguno ukulondola guno, nneila peila bhapegwanje mboka bhene bhaapilikananga na kugabhika muntima gajandikwe mwemuno gano, pabha malanga gabhandishile.
4 John to the seven Assemblies which are in Asia: Grace 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;
Nne a Yowana ngunakugajandishila makanisha shabha gali kunkoa gwa Ashia. Ngunakumpinjilanga nema na ulele kukopoka kwa a Nnungu bhapali, bhaapali na bhaapinga kwiya kukoposhela kwa ashi Mbumu shabha bhalinginji mmujo ja shitengu sha upalume,
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
na kwa a Yeshu Kilishitu bhaakong'ondela bhaakulupalika, bhali bha lyelo ku bhawilenje, na bhakulungwa bha bhapalume bha pa shilambolyo. Bhenebho bhanakutupinga na bhashikututakaya yambi yetu kwa minyai jabho,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
ni gubhatutendile uwe kubha upalume gwa bhaabhishila nkupinga twaatendele liengo a Nnungu, bhali aina bhabho. Ukonjelo na mashili ibhe na bhenebho piti piti, amina. (aiōn g165)
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, Amen.
Nnole bhenebho bhanakwiya na maunde na kila mundu shaabhabhone nkali bhene bhaaomilenje lipanga bhala, na ilambo yowe ya pashilambolyo shiigutanjile kwa ligongo lyabho. Elo nneyo ni shiipinga kubha.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Bhakulungwa a Nnungu Bhakwete Mashili bhakuti, “Nne ni jwa ntai na jwa mpelo, mbali, naapali na mbinga kwiya.”
9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Nne a Yowana nankukulupalila nnjenunji, nili mmboteko pamo na mmanganyanji muupalme gwa a Nnungu na nkupunda kwiipililila, nashinkubhikwa jikape ku shilambo shitimbililwe na mashi shiishemwa Patimo kwa ligongo lya lunguya lilobhe lya a Nnugnu na kong'ondela ga a Yeshu.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
Bhai, lyubha limo lya Bhakulungwa, nili ng'umbelwe naka Mbumu, gumbilikene lilobhe likulungwa mbuti lya lipenga kunyuma jangu
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.
lilinkuti, “Nnjandishe nshitabhu gowe gunkugabhonaga, npeleshe ku makanisha shabha, yani ku Epesho, na ku Shimilina, na ku Peligamo, na ku Tiatila, na ku Shalidi, na ku Piladelipia, na ku Laodikia.”
12 And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden lampstands;
Penepo nigundendebhwishe nole, ni gani abheleketaga na nne. Ngatendebhusheje niguniibhwene itengu shabha ya kandili ya shaabhu.
13 And in the midst of the seven lampstands one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle.
Pakati pakati yene itengu ya kandili ila, nigunaabhwene bhandu bhamo malinga Mwana jwa Mundu, awete likoti lya lileu na nshipi gwa shaabhu pa ntima.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
Ntwe gwakwe na umbo yakwe puyaaliji yanawe malinga mabhetya ga ngondolo, eu malinga ndambwe, na meyo gakwe pugaaliji malinga lilamba lya moto.
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
Makotwa gakwe pugaaliji malinga shitale shiukengwe kaje, eu mbuti shijoshilwe pa moto gwa shipala, na lilobhe lyakwe pulyaaliji malinga mabhimbili ga mashi gamagwinji.
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.
Munkono gwakwe gwa nnilo ashinkukamulila ndondwa shabha, na nkangw'a jakwe ushinkukopoka upanga gwa tema akuno na kukuno. Lubhombo lwakwe luliimelemeta kwa kaje, mbuti lyubha lya nakalanga.
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:
Ngaabhoneje ngugwaga pa makongono gabho mbuti mundu awile. Penepo nigubhamishile nkono gwabho gwa nnilo bhalinkuti, “Nnajogope, Nne ni na jwa ntai na jwa mpelo.
19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
“Bhai nnaino nnjandishe indu imuibhwene, ipali na yene ipinga koposhela kungai.
20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven Assemblies: and the seven lampstands which thou sawest are the seven Assemblies.
Ga shinjubhi sha yene ndondwa shabha imuibhwene munkono gwangu gwa nnilo ila, na itengu shabha ya kandili ya shaabhu ni nnei, ndondwa shabha ila ni ashimalaika bha Makanisha shabha, na itengu shabha ila, ni Makanisha shabha.”
