< Revelation 21 >
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
Kangi nawene kunani kwa Chapanga kwa mupya na mulima wa mupya, ndava kunani kwa Chapanga kwa kutumbula na mulima wula wamali kuwuka, nyanja nayene yavi lepi kavili.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
Nauwene muji wa msopi, Yelusalemu ya mupya wahuluka kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga ngati mdala wa ndowa mweatendelekiwi kupambwa ndava ya kukonganeka na mgwana waki.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
Kangi nayuwini lwami luvaha kuhuma pachigoda cha unkosi yijova, “Lola! Nyumba ya Chapanga yavi pagati ya vandu, mwene yati itama pagati yavi na yati Chapanga wavi.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Mwene yati akugahungula maholi gavi goha. Muni lifwa yati livya lepi kavili, amala lipyanda amala luvembu amala mvinisu, muni vindu vyoha vya kadeni vimali kupita.”
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
Kangi yula mweatamili pachigoda cha unkosi akajova, “Lola, nikugakita goha gamupya.” Kangi akanijovela, “Yandikayi mambu aga muni malovi aga ndi gakusadikika na gachakaka!”
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
Ndi akanijovela, “Gatimili! Nene ndi Alfa na Omega, mana yaki Mtumbula na Mmalikisa. Mweavi na njota yati nikumpela manji ga kunywa waka kuhuma muchinyepa cha manji ga wumi changali kulipa.
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
Yula mweihotola yati ipokela ago, nene yati nivya Chapanga waki, namwene yati ivya mwana vangu.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. (Limnē Pyr )
Nambu vandu veviyogopa na vangasadika na vahakau na vakomaji na vakemi na vahavi na veviyupa chimong'omong'o, pamonga na vadese voha pandu pavi ndi panyanja yila yeyiyaka motu na maganga ga baluti gegiyaka motu, lenilo ndi lifwa la pili.” (Limnē Pyr )
9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife.
Kangi mmonga wa vala vamitumu va kunani kwa Chapanga saba vevavili na nkeve saba gegamelili matovilu saba ga mwishu, akahegelela na kunijovela, “Bwela, nikulangisa kamwali wa ndowa, mdala wa Mwanalimbelele.”
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
Mpungu Msopi akanilongosa na mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga, akanitola mbaka pachitumbi chivaha na chitali. Akanilangisa muji wamsopi ndi Yelusalemu wewihelela kuhuma kunani kwa Chapanga.
11 Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
Muji wenuwo wing'asima kwa ukulu wa Chapanga. Lulangasa lwaki lwavi ngati liganga leliguliswa kwa mashonga gamahele lelikemelewa yasipi, leling'asima ngati chilolilo.
12 And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
Kangi muji wenuwo wavili na luwumba lutali na luvaha, weuvi na milyangu kumi na yivili, kila umonga wavikiwi ulonda na mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga. Panani ya kila mlyangu payandikwi liina limonga la makabila kumi na gavili ga vandu va Isilaeli.
13 On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
Kila upandi kwavili na milyangu yidatu, upandi welihumila lilanga milyangu yidatu na upandi kwelitipama lilanga milyangu yidatu na kusini milyangu yidatu na kwe litipama lilanga milyangu yidatu.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
Luwumba lwa muji wenuwo wajengiwi mkingisa kumi na yivili ya maganga na panani ya mikingisa yeniyo payandikwi liina limonga la mahina kumi na gavili vamitumi kumi na vavili va Mwanalimbelele.
15 And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
Mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga mwealongelayi na nene avili na lidete la kupimila yeyatenganizwi kwa zahabu, ndava ya kupima muji wenuwo mlyangu waki na luwumba lwaki.
16 And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
Muji wene wajengiwi kwa pandi mcheche zeziwanangana upana na utali. Hinu mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga apimili muji wula na lidete la kupimila utali na upana na uvaha ndi vyoha vyavili ngati kilomita elufu zivili na miya mchehe.
17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
Kangi mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga apimili ukulupala wa luwumba, wene wavili mita sitini kulandana na chipimu cheahengili.
18 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.
Luwumba ulo lwajengiwi kwa maganga gadung'u ga mashonga gamahele gegikemelewa yasipi, na muji wene wajengiwi kwa zahabu yabwina neju, yeying'asima ngati chilolilo.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
Mkingisa wa luwumba lwa muji wenuwo wanyambiswi kwa maganga ndalindali gegiguliswa mashonga gamahele. Mkingisa wa kutumbula wavi wa liganga lidung'u, na liganga la pili lavi la yakuti samawati na liganga la datu lavi kalikedoni na liganga la mcheche lavi la zumalidi,
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
mkingisa wa mhanu lavi salidoniki na sita akiki na la saba kilisolito na la nane zabalajadi na la tisa topazi na la kumi kilisopalaso na la kumi na yimonga, yasinto na kumi na zivili ametisto.
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
Milyangu yivaha kumi na zivili yatengenizwi kwa lulu kumi na zivili, kila mlyangu umonga watenganizwi kwa lulu yimonga. Njila yikulu ya muji yatenganizwi kwa zahabu yabwina, yeying'asima ngati chilolilo.
22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
Mumuji wenuwo nayiwene lepi Nyumba ya Chapanga, muni Bambu witu Chapanga mweavi na makakala na yula Mwanalimbelele ndi Nyumba yaki.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
Muji wenuwo wigana lepi lumuli lwa lilanga amala mwehi, ndava muni ukulu wa Chapanga ulangasa na Mwanalimbelele ndi hahi yaki.
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
Vandu va milima yoha yati vitama mu lumuli lwaki na vankosi va mulima yoha yati vakuuletela muji wenuwo vindu vyavi vyamahele.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
Milyangu yivaha katu yati yidindwa lepi muhi woha, muni yati kwivya lepi kilu mwenumo.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
Vandu va pamulima yati vakuuletela utopesa na ukulu muji wenuwo.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
Nambu chindu chochoha chihakau katu yati chiyingila lepi mwenumo, amala mundu yoyoha mweikita mambu ga soni amala udese. Nambu vala ndu mahina gavi gegayandikwi muchitabu cha wumi cha Mwanalimbelele.
