< 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.
Tete mekpɔ agbalẽ aɖe le ame si nɔ anyi ɖe fiazikpui la dzi la ƒe nuɖusime. Woŋlɔ nu ɖe agbalẽ la me kple egodo siaa, eye wotree kple nutrenu adre.
2 I saw a mighty angel proclaiming with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to open the scroll, and to break its seals?"
Eye mekpɔ mawudɔla dzɔatsu aɖe le gbeƒã ɖem kple gbe sesẽ aɖe le gbɔgblɔm be, “Ame kae dze aɖe nutrenuawo ɖa alo aʋu agbalẽ la?”
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.
Gake ame aɖeke mele dziƒo, anyigba dzi loo alo anyigba te si ate ŋu aʋu agbalẽ la alo akpɔ eme o.
4 And I wept much, because no one was found worthy to open the scroll, or to look in it.
Mefa avi vevie, elabena ame aɖeke meli si ŋu wokpɔ ŋudzedze le si dze be wòaʋu agbalẽ la alo akpɔ eme o.
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."
Tete amegãxoxoawo dometɔ ɖeka gblɔ nam be, “Kpɔ ɖa, mègafa avi o, elabena Yuda ƒe to la ƒe Dzata si tso David ƒe ke me la ɖu dzi. Eyae ate ŋu aʋu agbalẽ la, eye wòaɖe nutrenu adreawo ɖa.”
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 Ruachs of God, sent out into all the earth.
Eye mekpɔ Alẽvi aɖe, wòdze abe ɖe wowui ene, eye wònɔ tsitre ɖe fiazikpui la titina. Nu gbagbe eneawo kple amegãxoxoawo ƒo xlãe. Dzo adre kple ŋku adre nɔ esi, esiwo nye Mawu ƒe gbɔgbɔ adreawo, esiwo wodɔ ɖo ɖe anyigba blibo la dzi.
7 Then he came, and he took it out of the right hand of him who sat on the throne.
Eyae va xɔ agbalẽ la le ame si nɔ fiazikpui la dzi la ƒe nuɖusime.
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 kadoshim.
Esi wòxɔ agbalẽa la, nu gbagbe eneawo kple amegãxoxo blaeve-vɔ-eneawo dze klo tsyɔ mo anyi ɖe Alẽvi la ŋgɔ. Kasaŋku nɔ wo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe si, eye sikagba si yɔ fũu kple dzudzɔʋeʋĩdonu siwo nye ame kɔkɔeawo ƒe gbedodoɖa la hã nɔ woƒe asi me.
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,
Wodzi ha yeye be, “Wòe dze be nàʋu agbalẽ la, eye nàɖe nutrenu adreawo ɖa, elabena wowu wò kpɔ, eye nètsɔ wò ʋu ƒle amewoe na Mawu. Tso to sia to, gbegbɔgblɔ sia gbegbɔgblɔ, Nuto ɖe sia ɖe kple dukɔ ɖe sia ɖe me,
10 and made them a kingdom and cohanim to our God, and they will reign on earth."
Èwɔ wo be woanye fiaɖuƒewo kple nunɔlawo ne woasubɔ míaƒe Mawu la, eye woaɖu fia le anyigba dzi.”
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;
Tete mekpɔ, eye mese mawudɔla gbogbo aɖewo ƒe gbe siwo ƒe xexlẽme anye akpeakpewo kple akpe ewo teƒe akpe ewo. Woɖe to ƒo xlã fiazikpui la, nu gbagbe eneawo kple amegãxoxoawo.
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."
Wole ha dzim kple gbe sesẽ be, “Alẽvi si wowu la, eyae dze, be wòaxɔ ŋusẽ, kesinɔnu, nunya kple ŋutete, kple bubu, ŋutikɔkɔe kple kafukafu.”
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 )
Esia megbe la, mese nu gbagbe siwo katã le dziƒo, anyigba dzi, anyigba te, atsiaƒu me kpe ɖe nu siwo katã nɔ wo me la ŋuti nɔ ha dzim be, “Alẽvi si nɔ anyi ɖe fiazikpui la dzi la tɔe nye kafukafu, bubu, ŋutikɔkɔe kple ŋusẽ, (aiōn )
14 The four living creatures were saying, "Amen." The elders fell down and worshiped.
Nu gbagbe eneawo gblɔ be, “Amen.” Tete amegãxoxo blaeve-vɔ-eneawo tsyɔ mo anyi, eye wosubɔe.
