Revelation 17
1 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, "Come here. I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters,
Umwi wabaangelo balimusanu ababili bakajisi mitiba wakasika akundambila kuti, “sika, ndiyokutondezya chibi chasibwamu mupati ukkede atala amanzi mingi,
2 with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality, and those who dwell in the earth were made drunk with the wine of her sexual immorality."
Oyo, baami baansi ngubakachita awe bwamu, awayini wabwamu bwakwe bayakide ansi bakakolwa.”
3 He carried me away in the Rukha into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored animal, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.
Mpawo angelo wakandibweza mumuuya akunditola munkanda, alimwi ndakabona mwanakazi ukkede amunyama uusalala wakali zwide mazina akusampawula. Echo chinyama chakali amitwe ilimusanu ayibili ameja aali kkumi.
4 The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of her sexual immorality.
Mwanakazi wakazwete zisamo zyamusyobo wamuntumbula azisalala kazingayima alimwi zyakalivwelene angolida, amabwe mayandisi, amabwe akubumba atuba. Wakajisi inkomesi izyangolide mumaboko akwe zyakazwide zintu zitayandiki azisofwede abwamu bwakwe.
5 And on her forehead a name was written, "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH."
Ankumu yakwe wakalembedwe izina lyakali abupanduluzi busisikene: “Babbiloni mupati, banyina babasimamambe abusofwazi bwazintu zyansi.”
6 I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Yeshua. When I saw her, I wondered with great amazement.
Ndakabona mwanakazi kakoledwe bulowa bwabantu basalala ba Leza abulowa bapenzegwa nkambo kakusyoma Jesu. Nindakamubona, ndakayowesya kapati.
7 The angel said to me, "Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.
Pesi mungelo wakandambila kuti, “ninzi nchoyowa? Ndiyokupandulwida zisisikene zyiminina mwanakazi achinyama chimubwezede, chinyama echo chilamitwe ilimusanu ayibili ameja alikkumi.
8 The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss and is going to destruction. Those who dwell on the earth and whose names have not been written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see that the beast was, and is not, but is to come. (Abyssos g12)
Chinyama nchiwakabona kachipona, tachchiponi pe lino, alimwi chamba kusika aansi loko amulindi. Mpawo ulayinkila mukunyonyoka. Abo bapona munyika, abo bajanika mazina aabo katalembedwe pe mubbuku lyabuumi kuzwa muntalisyo yanyika - bayoyowesya nibakubona chinyama, nkambo chakaliwo, alimwi lino tachiwope, alimwi chiyoboola. (Abyssos g12)
9 Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.
Eechi chaamba boongo bulabusongo. Mitwe ilimusanu ayibili ntulundulundu tuli musanu atubili omo mwanakazi mwakkede.
10 They are seven kings. Five have fallen, the one is, the other has not yet come. When he comes, he must continue a little while.
Kuli baami alubo bali musanu ababli, baami balimusanu baliwide, umwi uchipona, alimwi bamwi tabanasikape, alimwi nazosika, uyelede kuzoyimikila kayindi kanini.
11 The beast that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goes to destruction.
Chinyama chakasikide, alimwi pesi tachiponi pe, ngomwani wamusanu atutat, uzwa kulibali musanu ababili aboobo uya kulunyonyoko lwakwe.
12 The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority as kings, with the beast, for one hour.
Meeja aalya nguwakabona alikkumi mbibaami balikkumi batana tambula bwami bwabo, pesi bayotambula bwandelezi mbuli baami klwachiindi chomwe antomwe achinyama.
13 These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
Obu mbubongo bumwi, alimwi buyopa nguzu abwendelezi kuchinyama.
14 These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings. They also will overcome who are with him, called and chosen and faithful."
Bayoliya nkondo amwana mbelele, pesi mwanambelele uyobazunda nkambo ngu Leza waba leza, a Mwami wabami- abaabo balawe mbayitwe, basalidwe, abasyomekede.”
15 He said to me, "The waters which you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.
Mungelo wakandambila kuti, “Manzi ngiwakabona awo simamambe mpakakkede, mbibantu, biingi manyika amyambo.
16 The ten horns which you saw, and the beast, these will hate the prostitute, and will make her desolate and naked, and will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire.
Meja alikkumi ngiwakabona - boo lwabo achinyama bayosula simamambe. Bayochisiya achilikke achintanda, bayochilya nyama yacho alimwi bayochitenta chikamaninine mumulilo.
17 For God has put in their hearts to do what he has in mind, and to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be accomplished.
Nkambo Leza wabikka mumyoyo yabo kuti babweze makanze akuzuminina kupa nguzu abwendelezi kuchinyama mane Ijwi lya Leza lizuzikizigwe.
18 The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth."
Mwanakazi nguwabona nidolopo pati eliya lilanguzu zyakwendelezya atala abami banyika.”
