< Revelation 21 >

1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and the sea is no more;
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 saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of Heaven, made ready 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 dwelling place of God [is] with men, and He will dwell with them, and they will be His peoples, and God Himself will be with them [as] 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 will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying, nor will there be anymore pain, because the first things 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 who is sitting on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new”; and He says to me, “Write, because these words are true and steadfast”;
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 to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsting, I will give 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 The [one] who is overcoming will inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be My son.
Yula mweihotola yati ipokela ago, nene yati nivya Chapanga waki, namwene yati ivya mwana vangu.
8 But to fearful, and unsteadfast, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the liars, their part [is] in the lake that is burning with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
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 g3041 g4442)
9 And one of the seven messengers, having the seven bowls that are full of the seven last plagues, came and spoke with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb,”
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 mountain great and high, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, coming down 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—like a most precious stone, as 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 also having a great and high wall, having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve messengers, and names written thereon, which are [those] of the twelve tribes of the sons 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 at the east three gates, at the north three gates, at the south three gates, at 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 on them 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 who is speaking with me had a golden reed, that he may measure the city, and its gates, and its wall;
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 lies square, and the length of it is as great as the breadth; and he measured the city with the reed—twelve thousand stadia; 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 its wall—one hundred forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, that is, of the messenger;
Kangi mtumu wa kunani kwa Chapanga apimili ukulupala wa luwumba, wene wavili mita sitini kulandana na chipimu cheahengili.
18 and the building of its wall was jasper, and the city [is] pure gold—like to pure 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 have been adorned with every precious stone: the first foundation jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth 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 topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth 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 [are] twelve pearls, each one of the gates respectively was of one pearl; and the street of the city [is] pure gold—as 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 did not see a temple in it, for the LORD God, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple.
Mumuji wenuwo nayiwene lepi Nyumba ya Chapanga, muni Bambu witu Chapanga mweavi na makakala na yula Mwanalimbelele ndi Nyumba yaki.
23 And the city has no need of the sun, nor of the moon, that they may shine in it; for the glory of God lightens it, and the lamp of it—the Lamb;
Muji wenuwo wigana lepi lumuli lwa lilanga amala mwehi, ndava muni ukulu wa Chapanga ulangasa na Mwanalimbelele ndi hahi yaki.
24 and the nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor 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 its gates will never be shut by day, for night will not be there;
Milyangu yivaha katu yati yidindwa lepi muhi woha, muni yati kwivya lepi kilu mwenumo.
26 and they will bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it;
Vandu va pamulima yati vakuuletela utopesa na ukulu muji wenuwo.
27 and there may never enter into it anything defiling and doing abomination, and a lie, if not those written in the Lamb’s Scroll 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.
