< Revelation 8 >
1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
Ningĩ rĩrĩa Gatũrũme aamethũrire gatembe ka mũgwanja-rĩ, kũu igũrũ gũgĩkirwo ki ihinda ta rĩa nuthu ithaa.
2 And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
Na niĩ ngĩona araika mũgwanja arĩa marũgamaga mbere ya Ngai, nao makĩheo tũrumbeta mũgwanja.
3 And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
Nake mũraika ũngĩ, ũrĩa warĩ na rũgĩo rwa thahabu, agĩũka akĩrũgama kĩgongona-inĩ. Nake akĩheo ũbumba mũingĩ nĩgeetha aũrute igongona hamwe na mahooya ma arĩa othe aamũre hau igũrũ rĩa kĩgongona gĩa thahabu kĩrĩa kĩrĩ mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene.
4 And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.
Nayo ndogo ya ũbumba ũcio, hamwe na mahooya ma andũ arĩa aamũre, ĩkĩambata mbere ya Ngai yumĩte guoko-inĩ kwa mũraika ũcio.
5 And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
Nake mũraika ũcio akĩoya rũgĩo rũu rwa thahabu, akĩrũiyũria mwaki kuuma kĩgongona-inĩ, akĩũikia thĩ; nakuo gũkĩgĩa ngwa, na marurumĩ, na heni, na gĩthingithia.
6 And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo araika arĩa mũgwanja maarĩ na tũrumbeta mũgwanja makĩĩhaarĩria gũtũhuha.
7 The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth: and the third part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.
Mũraika wa mbere akĩhuha karumbeta gake, nakuo gũkĩgĩa mbura ya mbembe na mwaki itukanĩte na thakame, nacio igĩikio thĩ. Nakĩo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ gĩa thĩ gĩkĩhĩa, na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa mĩtĩ ĩkĩhĩa, o na nyeki yothe nduru ĩkĩhĩa.
8 And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood;
Mũraika wa keerĩ nake akĩhuha karumbeta gake, nakĩo kĩndũ kĩahaanaga ta kĩrĩma kĩnene gĩakanaga mwaki-rĩ, gĩgĩikio thĩinĩ wa iria rĩrĩa inene. Nakĩo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa iria rĩu gĩgĩtuĩka thakame,
9 And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.
na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ gĩa ciũmbe iria irĩ muoyo thĩinĩ wa iria rĩu igĩkua, na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa marikabu ikĩanangwo.
10 And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;
Nake mũraika wa gatatũ akĩhuha karumbeta gake, nayo njata nene mũno ĩkiuma igũrũ yakanĩte ta gĩcinga, ĩkĩgwĩra gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa njũũĩ na ithima cia maaĩ,
11 And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
narĩo rĩĩtwa rĩa njata ĩyo nĩ Kũrũra. Gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa maaĩ macio gĩkĩrũra, na andũ aingĩ magĩkua nĩ kũnyua maaĩ macio marũrũ.
12 And the fourth angel sounded, and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and the day shone not for a third part of it, and the night likewise.
Nake mũraika wa kana akĩhuha karumbeta gake, narĩo riũa rĩkĩringwo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ, o naguo mweri gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ, o na njata nacio gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ, tondũ ũcio gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ gĩacio gĩgĩtuĩka nduma. Nakĩo gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa mũthenya gĩkĩaga ũtheri, o na gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa ũtukũ o taguo.
13 And I beheld, and heard an angel flying through the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to the citizens of the earth by reason of the other voices of the trumpet of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
O ndorete-rĩ, ngĩigua nderi yombũkaga rĩera-inĩ ĩkĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, ĩkoiga atĩrĩ: “Kaĩ kũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Kaĩ kũrĩ na haaro-ĩ! Kaĩ inyuĩ arĩa mũtũũraga thĩ mũrĩ na haaro-ĩ, tondũ wa tũrumbeta tũrĩa tũkirie kũhuhwo nĩ araika acio angĩ atatũ-ĩ!”
