< Revelation 12 >

1 A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
Kungai, shilangulo shikulungwa shikubhonekaga kunnungu, jwankongwe awashiywe lyubha na mwei uli pai makongono gakwe, na pa ntwe gwakwe shilemba sha ndondwa likumi limo na ibhili.
2 She was with child. She screamed out in pain, laboring to give birth.
Ashinkukola shitumbo, aliguta kupoteka ushungu gwa kola mwana.
3 Another sign was seen in heaven. Look, a great fiery red serpent, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
Shilangulo shina shikubhonekaga kunnungu, lijoka likulungwa lyanashe lya mitwe shabha na mbembe shabha na kila ntwe na shilemba.
4 His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The serpent stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
Na nshila gwakwe nipejila ndondwa lipungu limo lya gatatu ga ndondwa yowe ya kunnungu, nikwiigwiya pa shilambolyo. Na lijoka jula gwajimi mmujo muka jwankongwe aliji tome na kola mwana jula, nkupinga abhelekwaga ammile.
5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with an iron scepter. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.
Na jwankongwe jula gwakwete mwana jwannume, jwenejo shatagwale ilambo yowe kwa imbo ja shitale. Na mwana jula gwanyakwilwe kupelekwa kwa a Nnungu ku shitengu shakwe sha upalume
6 The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand two hundred sixty days.
Jwankongwe jula gwabhutushile kuanga kweneko a Nnungu bhashinkuntendela ndamo, nkupinga kweneko bhammikanje muulinda kwa mobha elupu jimo na mmia pa bhili na makumi shita.
7 There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the serpent. The serpent and his angels made war.
Bhai jikutandubhaga ngondo kunnungu. Mikaeli na ashimalaika bhakwe gubhakomenenje ngondo naka lijoka jula, najwalakwe lijoka jula na ashimalaika bhakwe gwakomene nabhonji.
8 They did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any more in heaven.
Ikabheje lijoka jula na ashimalaika bhakwe gubhalepelenje na kunnungu kula bhangakolanga ndamo kabhili.
9 The great serpent was thrown down, the ancient serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
Bhai, lijoka nkulungwa jula akuleshelwaga palanga. Jwene lijokajo ni lijoka jwa bhukala ashemwa Ibhilishi eu Lishetani lipuganya bhandu pa shilambolyo. Gwaleshelwe mpaka kushilambolyo pamo na ashimalaika bhakwe.
10 I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now is come the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
Gumbilikene lilobhe likulungwa kukoposhela kunnungu lilinkuti. “Nnaino uishe ntapulo na mashili na upalume gwa a Nnungu bhetu na ukulungwa gwa a Kilishitu bhabho. Pabha akwaashitakiyanga ashaapwetu kwa a Nnungu jula, aleshelwe pai. Elo aleshelwe pai akwaashitakiyanga shilo na mui.
11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony. They did not love their life, even to death.
Ashaapwetu bhankombwelenje kwa minyai jika Mwana Ngondolo na kwa lilobhe libhakong'ondelenje, pabha bhangapinganga gumi gwabhonji, mpaka nibha tayali nkali kuwa.
12 Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the land and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time."
Kwa nneyo mwinonyelanje kunnungu na indu yowe itama kunnungu. Ikabheje, ole pa shilambolyo na mbhaali. Pabha Ibhilishi ashikunnjiilanga ali na nnjimwa ya kaje, pabha amumanyi kuti mobha gakwe galepeshe gashokope.”
13 When the serpent saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
Lijoka jula akabhoneje kuti aleshelwe pai pashilambolyo, gwatandwibhe kunkagulila jwankongwe akwete mwana jwa shileu jula.
14 Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Ikabheje jwankongwe jula gwapegwilwe mapapiko gabhili mbuti ga litumbui jwankulungwa kupinga agulushe kwataliya kummutuka lijoka jula, mpaka ku ndamo jakwe ku anga kweneko abhikwe muulinda gwangali shigwegwe kwa yaka itatu na myei shita.
15 The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
Bhai, lijoka jula gwakopweye mashi gamagwinji mbuti lushi lwa mabhutuka, galikunkagula jwankongwe jula nnyuma kupinga gantole.
16 The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the serpent spewed out of his mouth.
Ikabheje ntaka ukunnjangutilaga jwankongwe jula, nikwiunukula mbuti kang'wa nikugamila mashi ga mabhutuka gakopokaga nkang'wa muka lijoka jula.
17 The serpent grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
Bhai, lijoka lila gulintumbalile jwankongwe jula, gulijabhwile likakomane ngondo na bhana bhalepekenje bhabhelekwenje naka jwankongwe jula, yani bhowe bhaakundanga malajilo ga a Nnungu na kwaakong'ondela a Yeshu.
