< Revelation 8 >
1 And when He opens the seventh seal, there came silence in Heaven about 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 messengers who have stood before God, and there were given to them seven trumpets,
Na niĩ ngĩona araika mũgwanja arĩa marũgamaga mbere ya Ngai, nao makĩheo tũrumbeta mũgwanja.
3 and another messenger came, and he stood at the altar, having a golden censer, and there was given to him much incense, that he may give [it] to the prayers of all the holy ones on the golden altar that [is] 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 incenses, with the prayers of the holy ones, went up before God out of the hand of the messenger;
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 messenger took the censer, and filled it out of the fire of the altar, and cast [it] to the earth, and there came voices, and thunders, 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 messengers who are having the seven trumpets prepared themselves that they may sound the trumpets;
Hĩndĩ ĩyo araika arĩa mũgwanja maarĩ na tũrumbeta mũgwanja makĩĩhaarĩria gũtũhuha.
7 and the first messenger sounded the trumpet, and there came hail and fire, mingled with blood, and it was cast to the earth, and the third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned 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 messenger sounded the trumpet, and [something] like a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea, and the third 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 of the creatures that [are] in the sea died, those having life, and the third 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 messenger sounded the trumpet, and there fell out of the sky a great star, burning as a lamp, and it fell on the third of the rivers, and on 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 of the waters become wormwood, and many of the men died [because] 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 messenger sounded the trumpet, and the third of the sun was struck, and the third of the moon, and the third of the stars, that the third of them may be darkened, and that the day may not shine—the third of it, and the night in like manner.
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 saw, and I heard one messenger, flying in midair, saying with a great voice, “Woe, woe, woe, to those dwelling on the earth because of the rest of the voices of the trumpet of the three messengers being about to sound trumpets.”
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!”
