< Revelation 5 >

1 I saw, in the right hand of him who sat on the throne, a scroll written inside and on the back, sealed shut with seven seals.
Panyuma pakendi ndalabona libuku mu cikasa ca kululyo ca uyo walikuba wekala pacipuna ca bwami lyalembwa mukati ne kunsa, lyalikuba kayi lyadindwa ne bidindo bisanu ne bibili.
2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the scroll, and to break its seals?"
Kayi ndalabona mungelo ukute ngofu sha bwendeleshi kepusha mwakompolola, “Inga niyani welela kumatula cidindo ne kucalula libuku ili ne kubona bili mukati?”
3 No one in heaven above, or on the earth, or under the earth, was able to open the scroll, or to look in it.
Nomba paliya walacanika kwilu nambi pa cishi ca panshi nambi kwinshi ca cishi, walikukute ngofu sha kucalula libuku ne kubona bili mukati.
4 And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the scroll, or to look in it.
Ndalalila kwine pakuboneti paliya walikuba welela kucalula libuku ne kubona bili mukati.
5 One of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. Look, the Lion who is of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has overcome so that he can open the scroll and loose its seven seals."
Neco umo wa bamakulene basa walang'ambileti, “Kotalila. Kobona! Inkalamu ya mu mukowa wa Yuda, mushikululwa wa Dafeti, elakomo nkondo, neco ewelela kumatula bidindo ne kucalula libuku.”
6 I saw in the midst of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, a Lamb standing, as though it had been slain, having seven horns, and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God, sent out into all the earth.
Popelapo ndalabona Mwana Mbelele kali wemana pakati pacipuna ca bwami, kali washingulukwa ne bya buyumi bina ne bamakulene makumi abili ne bana. Mwana Mbelele walikuboneketi pali lamushini, walikukute meca asanu ne abili kayi ne menso asanu ne abili. Uku ekwambeti mishimu isanu ne ibili ya Lesa yatumwa mu cishi conse ca panshi.
7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
Mwana mbelele walamanta libuku lisa lyalikuba mu cikasa ca kululyo ca usa walikuba wekala pa cipuna cabwami cisa.
8 Now when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
Mpwalamanta libuku, bya buyumi bina ne bamakulene makumi abili ne bana balawa pantangu pa Mwana Mbelele. Umo ne umo walikukute kalumbu ne ndilo shadongomana shagolidi shesula twanunkila, uku ekwambeti, mipailo ya bantu ba Lesa.
9 They sang a new song, saying, "You are worthy to take the scroll, and to open its seals: for you were killed, and redeemed for God with your blood those from every tribe, language, people, and nation,
Balikwimbila lwimbo lwalino lino, lulambangeti, “Njamwe mwelela kumanta libuku ne kumatula cidindo ne kulicalula. Pakwinga mwalashinwa, ne milopa yenu mwalaulila Lesa bantu ba mishobo, ne bishi ne milaka kayi ne bantu bankanda shapusanapusana,
10 and made them a kingdom and priests to our God, and they will reign on earth."
mulababiki pamo kuba mushobo wa bami ne beshimilumbo beshi kusebensela Lesa wetu, beti bakasebenselenga pano pa cishi ca panshi.”
11 I saw, and I heard the voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands;
Kayi ndalanyumfwa ne kubona bangelo bangi myanda myanda itabelengeke ne bya buyumi bina kayi ne bamakulene makumi abili ne bana kabali bashinguluka cipuna.
12 saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing."
Kabembila mwakompolola lwimbo lulambangeti, “Mwana Mbelele walashinwa, ewelela kupewa bwendeleshi ne buboni ne mano ne ngofu ne kulemekeshewa ne bulemeneno kayi ne kushikaishiwe!”
13 I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever." (aiōn g165)
Popelapo ndalanyumfwa byonse byalabumbilwa kwilu ne pa cishi ca panshi ne bya panshi pene pene, bya mu lwenje, byonse bikute buyumi kabimbileti, “Kuli uyo wekala pa cipuna ne Mwana Mbelele bashikaishiwe, balemekeshewe, bapewe bulemeneno ne ngofu kwamuyayaya.” (aiōn g165)
14 The four living creatures were saying, "Amen." The elders fell down and worshiped.
Bya buyumi bina byalakumbuleti “Ameni!” Basa bamakulene balasuntama ne kukambilila.
