< 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,
iyi i nsinululo ya Jesu keresite iyo Ireeza aba muhi kubonisa ba hikana bakwe chiswanela ku tendahala nambwangu. aba i zibankanisi caku tuma ingeloi lwakwa kumuhikana wakwe Joani.
2 who testified [to] the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as many things as he also saw.
Joani abahi bupaki ku amana ninzwi lya Ireeza mini cabu paki buba hewa kwa amana ni Jesu Kereste, zintu zonse za baboni.
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!
Ba tohonolofezwe abo ba bala ca kuhuwa, mi nabo ba teeka kwinzwi lyakwe lya cipolofita, ba kuteka ci! noletwe mwateni, mukuti inako ciyina hafuhi.
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,
Joani, kwi keleke zikwana iyaza ni zobele mwa Asia; Chishemo chibe nanwe ni nkozo izwa kozo winako, imi abenako, imi iye yosikeza, imi yozwa kwihuho zikwana iyaza nitobele benakumasule achihuna 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,
imi kuzwa kwa Jesu Kereste, ipaki isepahala, Iye wetanzi kuzwa kuba fwile, iye mubusi uba simwine ba mwikanda. Kwali iye mwine yotusaka aba tulukululi kuzive kamalaha akwe—
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)
aba tupangi busimwine, buprisita bwabuIreeza imi Shetu- kwali kube nikanya ni maata kuya kusamani. Amen. (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!
Mubone, ukezite mu makope; meso wonse kamubone, kukopanya nabo baba muhwezoli. Imi yonse mishobo ya munkanda kayisilise chebaka lyakwe. Eni, Amen.
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.”
Njeme wetanzi ni mamanimani,” kuwamba Simwine Ireeza, “iye wina ko, imi yabena koo, imi yosikeza, wina Inguzu.”
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 Joani-mukwaluzubo wenu hape uli yabela nanwe mu manyando nimuso nikulo inde kubena kwa Jesu—nibena muchiwoli chisupwa Patmosi chebaka lyezwi lye Ireeza ni bupaki buamana niJesu.
10 I was in the Spirit on the LORD’s Day, and I heard a great voice behind me, as of a trumpet, saying,
Ni bena Muluhuho mwizuba lya Simwine. Ni bazuwi kumasule angu muhuwo mukando sina intolombita.
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.”
Nilyati, “ñole zobwene mumbuka, imi uzitumine kwi kereke zikwana iyanza limwina ni tobele—kwa Maefese, kwa Simina, kwa Pegamumu, kwaTiyatira, kwa Sadisi, Kwa Filadefia, im ni kwa Laodisia.”
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me, and having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands,
Ninachebuka kubona mwine wezwi liwamba kwangu, imi hani chebuka china bona malambi egaunda akwana iyaza nitobele.
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,
Hakati kamalambi kubena yoswana sina mwana muntu, nazwete chizabalo chile chisika kumatende, imi ni mbati lizimbulukite chizuva chakwe.
14 and His head and hairs [were] white, as if white wool—as snow, and His eyes as a flame of fire;
Mutwi ni suki zakwe zibali kutuba sina boza bwembelele sina kabundu, hape meso akwe sina indimi ya 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;
Matende akwe aba kubenya sina ibronze, sina ibronze iba hiswa mu mulilo, hape izwi lyakwe liba kuzuweka sina mezi mangi atiya.
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.
Abena ikani zikwana iyaza nitovere kwiyaza lyamalyo, ni chilinga chishengetwe kose chiba kuzwa mu mulomo wakwe. Chi fateho chakwe chiba kubenya sina izuva lihisite.
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,
Linu hanimubona, chinawila habusu bwamatende akwe sina muntu ufwile. Chakambika iyaza lyabulyo imi nati, “Sanzi usuhi. Njeme wetazi ni wamamaninizo,
18 and He who is living, and I became dead, and behold, I am living through the ages of the ages. Amen! And I have the keys of Hades and of death. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
ime yohala. Nibafwile, kono bone, Nihala kuyakusamani! Hape nina chikulukulu chefu ni Hele. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
19 Write the things that you have seen, and the things that are, and the things that are about to come after these things;
Chobulyo ñole hansi zobaboni, zinako hanu, ni zetenizihinde chibaka kuzwa kwezi.
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.”
Kwezina ziwungwilwe italuso kuamana nikani zikwana iyaza nizobele zobaboni zina mwiyaza lyangu lyabulyo, ni malambi egaunda akwana iyaza ni wobele. Ikani zikwana iyaza ni tovele nji mangiloi akwana iyaza ni zobele ekereke, imi zikwana iyaza ni zobele malambi akwana iyaza ni wobele nji kereke zikwana iyaza ni zobele,”
