< Revelation 1 >
1 This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John,
Kun mulʼata Yesuus Kiristoos, kan akka inni waan dhiʼootti taʼuu qabu garboota isaatti argisiisuuf jedhee Waaqni isaaf kennee dha. Innis ergamaa isaa gara garbicha isaa Yohannisitti ergee akka mulʼanni sun beekamu godhe;
2 who testified to God's word, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.
Yohannis isa waan arge hundumaa jechuunis dubbii Waaqaatii fi dhuga baʼumsa Yesuus Kiristoos dhugaa baʼuu dha.
3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is near.
Namni dubbii raajii kana dubbisu eebbifamaa dha; warri waan raajii sana keessatti barreeffame dhagaʼanii eeganis eebbifamoo dha; barichi dhiʼaateeraatii.
4 John, to the seven churches that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;
Yohannis irraa, Gara waldoota kiristaanaa kanneen biyya Asiyaa keessa jiran torbaniitti: Isa jiru, isa ture, Isa dhufuuf jiruu fi Hafuurota torban fuula teessoo isaa dura jiran irraa,
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and freed us from our sins by his blood;
akkasumas Yesuus Kiristoos dhuga baatuu amanamaa, hangafa warra duʼaniitii fi bulchaa mootota lafaa taʼe sana irraa ayyaannii fi nagaan isiniif haa taʼu. Isa nu jaallatuu fi isa dhiiga isaatiin cubbuu keenya irraa bilisa nu baase,
6 and he made us to be a kingdom, priests to his God and Father; to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
isa akka nu Waaqa isaatii fi Abbaa isaa tajaajilluuf mootummaa fi luboota nu taasise sanaaf ulfinnii fi humni bara baraa hamma bara baraatti haa taʼu! Ameen. (aiōn )
7 Look, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
“Kunoo, inni duumessa wajjin dhufa; iji hundinuu, warri isa waraanan iyyuu isa ni argu;” saboonni lafaa hundinuus “sababii isaatiif ni wawwaatu.”
8 "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."
Waaqni Gooftaan Waan Hunda Dandaʼu, “Ani Alfaa fi Omeegaa dha; isa jiru, isa turee fi isa dhufuuf jiruu dha” jedha.
9 I John, your brother and fellow-partner with you in persecution, kingdom, and patient endurance in Jesus, was on the island that is called Patmos because of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.
Ani obboleessi keessan Yohannis dhiphina keessatti, mootummaa fi obsa Yesuus Kiristoos keessattis isin wajjin kan hirmaadhu sababii dubbii Waaqaatii fi sababii dhuga baʼumsa Yesuus Kiristoosiif Phaaximoos biyya bishaaniin marfamte irran ture.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet
Anis guyyaa Gooftaatti Hafuuraanin ture; dugda koo duubaanis sagalee guddaa akka malakataa tokko nan dhagaʼe;
11 saying, "What you see, write on a scroll and send to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."
sagaleen sunis, “Waan argitu kitaaba maramaa irratti barreessiitii gara waldoota kiristaanaa torbaniitti jechuunis Efesoonitti, Samirnaatti, Phergaamoonitti, Tiyaatiraatti, Sardeesitti, Filaadelfiyaattii fi Lodooqiyaatti ergi” jedhe.
12 I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands.
Anis sagalee natti dubbachaa ture sana ilaaluuf jedheen of irra gara gale. Ani yommuun of irra gara galetti baattuuwwan ibsaa kanneen warqee irraa hojjetaman torba nan arge;
13 And among the lampstands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.
baattuuwwan ibsaa sana gidduus kan, “ilma namaa fakkaatu” tokkotu ture; innis uffata dheeraa miilla gaʼu uffatee, naannoo qoma isaatti immoo sabbata warqee hidhatee ture.
14 His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.
Mataan isaatii fi rifeensi mataa isaa adii akka rifeensa hoolaa, adii akka cabbii ture; iji isaas akka arraba ibiddaa turte.
15 His feet were like burnished bronze, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.
Miilli isaas naasii boolla ibiddaa keessatti diimeffame fakkaata ture; sagaleen isaa immoo akkuma sagalee bishaan baayʼee ti.
16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
Harka isaa mirgaatiin urjiiwwan torba qabatee ture; afaan isaa keessaas goraadee qara lama qabutu baʼaa ture. Fuulli isaas biiftuu humna guutuun iftu fakkaata ture.
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, "Do not be afraid. I am the first and the last,
Ani yommuun isa argetti akka nama duʼee miilla isaa jalattin kufe. Inni immoo harka isaa mirgaa narra kaaʼee akkana naan jedhe: “Hin sodaatin. Ani kan Jalqabaatii fi kan Dhumaa ti.
18 and the Living one. I was dead, but look, I am alive forevermore. I have the keys of Death and of hell. (aiōn , Hadēs )
Isa jiraataa dhas; ani duʼeen ture; kunoo, bara baraa hamma bara baraatti nan jiraadha! Furtuu duʼaatii fi kan Siiʼoolis qaba. (aiōn , Hadēs )
19 Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter;
“Kanaafuu ati waan argite, waan amma jiruu fi waan gara fuulduraatti taʼu barreessi.
20 the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches. The seven lampstands are seven churches.
Icciitiin urjiiwwan torbaa kanneen ati harka koo mirgaa keessatti argiteetii fi baattuuwwan ibsaa kanneen warqee irraa hojjetaman torbanii isa kana: Urjiiwwan torban ergamoota waldaa kiristaanaa torbaa ti; baattuuwwan ibsaa torban immoo waldoota kiristaanaa torbanii dha.
