Revelation 1
1 A revelation of Jesus Christ that God gave to Him to show to His servants what things must quickly come to pass; and He signified [it], having sent through His messenger to His servant John,
Eechi nchiyunuzyo cha Jesu Kkilisito eecho Leza nchakamupa kuti atondeezye balanda bakwe zintu zizochika chakufwambaana, wakazibisya makani aaya watuma angelo kumulanda wakwe Joni.
2 who testified [to] the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as many things as he also saw.
Joni wakalungulula makani aa Leza abukamboni bwa Jesu Kkilisito, azintu zyoonse nzyakabona.
3 Blessed is he who is reading, and those hearing the words of the prophecy, and keeping the things written in it, for the time is near!
Uli aacholwe uubala businsimi oobu ajwi pati abaabo balemeka zilembedwe mulimbubo, nkaambo chiindi chaba aafwiifwi.
4 John, to the seven assemblies that [are] in Asia: Grace to you, and peace, from Him who is, and who was, and who is coming, and from the Seven Spirits that are before His throne,
Joni, kumbungano zili musanu azibili zili mu Eziya: Luzyalo ngalube kuli ndinywe aluumuno luzwa kuli yooyo uliwo, lwakaliwo ooyo uuza, akuzwa kumyuuya ili musanu ayibili iimikila kuchuuno chakwe,
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn out of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth; to Him loving us and having released us from our sins in His blood,
akuzwa kuli Jesu Kkilisito, ooyo ulinguwe kamboni wakasimpe, mwana mutaanzi kuzwa kubafu, mpawo kali mweendelezi wabami baansi. Kulinguwe ooyo utuyanda watugwisya kuzwa muzibi zyesu abulowa bwakwe -
6 [He] has also made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him—the glory and the power through the ages of the ages! Amen. (aiōn g165)
wakatuchita kuba ba Pulisita babwami, bawisi Leza wakwe a wisikuli nguwe kube bulemu a nguzu mane kukabe kutamani. Ameni. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, He comes with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him, and all the tribes of the land will wail because of Him. Yes! Amen!
Ngamulange, ulaza amayoba; meso woonse azoomubona kubikilizya aamwi abaabo bakamuyasa. Misyobo yamunyika izoolila nkaambo kanguwe. Iiyi, Ameni.
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega, beginning and end, says the LORD, who is, and who was, and who is coming—the Almighty.”
“Ndime Alufa a Omega,” mbaamba Mwami Leza, ngunguwe uliwo, wakaliwo, ngunguwe uuza, Singuzu zyoonse.”
9 I, John, who [am] also your brother, and fellow-partner in the tribulation, and in the kingdom and endurance of Jesus Christ, was in the island that is called Patmos, because of the word of God, and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ;
Ime, nindaba Joni, monyoko unookwaabilana andinywe mukupenzegwa amubwami, amumoyo mulamfu zili muli Jesu - ndakali aa kasuwa kategwa Patimosi nkaambo kajwi lya Leza abukamboni bwa Mwami Jesu.
10 I was in the Spirit on the LORD’s Day, and I heard a great voice behind me, as of a trumpet, saying,
Ndakali mumuuya mubuzuba bwa Mwami. Ndakamvwa jwi pati kusule lyangu lili mbuli mweembo.
11 “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “Write what you see in a scroll, and send [it] to the seven assemblies that [are] in Asia: to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”
Lyakat, “Lemba nzwaabona mubbuku, mpawo uziotumizye kumbungano zili musanui azibili - ku Efeso, ku Similina, ku Pegamumu, ku Siyatila, ku Sadisi, ku Filadelufuya aku Lawodesiya.”
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me, and having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands,
Ndakacheba kuti ndibone kuti ngwani unukwambuula aandime, lino nindakacheba ndakabona zibikilo zyamampi zyangolida zilimusanu azibili.
13 and in the midst of the seven lampstands, [One] like a Son of Man, clothed to the foot, and having been girded around at the breasts with a golden girdle,
Aakati kazikilo eezi zyamalampi zyamalampi kwali umwi wakali mbuli mwana wamuntu kasamide dembo damfu lyakalikusika kumawulu aakwe amwiingwa nkwa wangolida kuzyungulukide kaango kakwe.
14 and His head and hairs [were] white, as if white wool—as snow, and His eyes as a flame of fire;
Mutwe wakwe amasusu aakwe aakali kutuba mbuli buluba- kuta mbuli sikunku ameso aakwe akali mbuli mulilo.
15 and His feet like to frankincense-colored brass, as having been fired in a furnace, and His voice as a sound of many waters;
Mawulu aakwe aakali mbuli nsimbi yananikwa, mbuli nsimbi yasunkwa mumvuto yamulilo, ajwi lyakwe lyakali mbuli kuvuuma kwameenda mayingi.
16 and having seven stars in His right hand, and out of His mouth a sharp two-edged sword is proceeding, and His countenance—as the sun shining in its might.
Wakalijisi nyenyezi zili musanu azibili kuluboko lwakwe lwalulyo. Mumulomo wakwe mwakazwa panga libosya koonse koonse. Busyu bwakwe bwakali kumweka mbuli zuba libalisya loko.
17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead, and He placed His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last,
Nindakamubona ndakawida ndakawida kumawulu aakwe mbuli muntu mufwide. Wakabika luboko lwakwe lwalulyo aalindime mpawo wakati, “Utayoowi. Ndime matalikilo amamanino
19 Write the things that you have seen, and the things that are, and the things that are about to come after these things;
Nkikaako lemba ansi nzwaabona, chiliwo lino achizoochitika kuzwa aawa.
20 the secret of the seven stars that you have seen on My right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: the seven stars are messengers of the seven assemblies, and the seven lampstands that you have seen are seven assemblies.”
Bupanduluzi busisikene bwaamba nyenyezi zili musanu azibili nzwaabona muluboko lwangu lwalulyo, azibikilo zyangolida zili musanu azibili: Nyenyezi zili musanu azibili mbaangelo bambungano zili musanu azibili alazyo zibikilo zyamalampi zili musanu azibil, ni mbungano zili musanu azibili.”
