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,
Otu nʼime ndị mmụọ ozi asaa ndị ahụ ji efere bịara sị m, “Bịa, aga m egosi gị ahụhụ ga-abịakwasị onye ahụ ụwa niile maara dịka akwụna, onye ahụ na-anọkwasị nʼelu ọtụtụ mmiri nke ụwa.
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."
Ndị eze ụwa esorola ya kwaa iko nʼotu ihe ndina, emeekwara ka ndị niile bi nʼụwa bụrụ ndị mmanya ịkwa iko ya na-egbu.”
3 He carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored animal, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.
O duuru m nʼime mmụọ baa nʼọzara. Nʼebe ahụ ka m nọ hụ otu nwanyị nọkwasịrị nʼelu otu anụ ọhịa na-acha ọbara ọbara. Anụ ọhịa ahụ nwere isi asaa na mpi iri. Aha ndị e dere anụ ọhịa ahụ nʼahụ bụ naanị okwu ikwulu Chineke.
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.
Nwanyị ahụ yi akwa na-acha odo odo na nke na-achakwa ọbara ọbara, gbarakwa ihe ịchọ mma e ji ọlaedo, nkume dị oke ọnụahịa na pieal kpụọ. O jikwa iko ọlaedo nʼaka ya nke jupụtara nʼihe arụ na ihe ure niile o ji na-akwa iko ya.
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."
Aha e dekwasịrị ya nʼegedege ihu bụ ihe omimi: Obodo ukwu ahụ bụ Babilọn, nne ndị na-akwa iko na nke ihe arụ niile nke ụwa.
6 I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. When I saw her, I wondered with great amazement.
Ejikwa m anya m hụ na nwanyị ahụ aṅụjuola ọbara ndị nsọ afọ, ya na ọbara ndị ama Jisọs. Mgbe m hụrụ ya, ọ gbagwojuru m anya.
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.
Ma mmụọ ozi ahụ sịrị m, “Gịnị mere ihe ị hụrụ ji ju gị anya? Aga m akọwara gị ihe omimi banyere nwanyị a na anụ ọhịa ahụ nke na-ebugharị ya, bụ nke nwere isi asaa na mpi iri.
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)
Anụ ọhịa ahụ ị hụrụ, nwere mgbe ọ dịịrị, ma ugbu a, ọ dịkwaghị. Ma ọ ga-esi nʼolulu Abis ahụ pụta banye na mbibi. Ma nlọghachi ya ga-eju ndị ahụ a na-edeghị aha ha nʼime akwụkwọ ndụ ahụ site nʼoge e kere ụwa anya. Nʼihi na e nwere mgbe ọ dịịrị, ma ugbu a, ọ dịkwaghị, ma ọ ga-emesi bịa. (Abyssos g12)
9 Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.
“Nke a chọrọ uche nke nwere amamihe. Isi asaa ahụ nọchiri anya ugwu asaa ahụ nke nwanyị ahụ na-anọdụ nʼelu ha. Ha na-anọchikwa anya ndị eze asaa.
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.
Ise nʼime ha adaala, otu ka nọ, nke ọzọ abịabeghị. Mgbe ọ bịara, ọ ga-anọ nwantakịrị oge.
11 The beast that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goes to destruction.
Anụ ọhịa ahụ nke dịrịị ma ọ dịkwaghị, bụ onye nke asatọ, ọ bụ onye otu ndị eze asaa ahụ ma a lakwara ya nʼiyi.
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.
“Mpi iri ahụ ị hụrụ nọchiri anya ndị eze iri na-anatabeghị alaeze. Ha na anụ ọhịa ahụ ga-anata ike ọchịchị dịka eze sọọsọ otu awa.
13 These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
Ha ji otu obi na-enye anụ ọhịa ahụ ike ha na ịchị isi ha.
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."
Ha ga-ebu agha megide Nwa Atụrụ ahụ, ma Nwa Atụrụ ahụ ga-emeri ha nʼihi na ọ bụ Onyenwe kachasị ndị nwenụ niile nakwa Eze kachasị ndị eze niile. Ndị so ya bụkwa ndị a kpọrọ, na ndị a họpụtara, ndị ya kwesikwara ntụkwasị obi.”
15 He said to me, "The waters which you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.
Mgbe ahụ ọ sịrị m, “Mmiri ndị ahụ ị hụrụ, ebe nwanyị akwụna ahụ nọ, bụ ndị mmadụ dị iche iche, igwe mmadụ, na mba dị iche iche na nʼasụsụ dị iche iche.
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.
Anụ ọhịa ahụ na mpi iri ahụ ị hụrụ ga-akpọ nwanyị akwụna ahụ asị. Ha ga-agba ya ọtọ, laakwa ya nʼiyi, ha ga-eri anụ ya, werekwa ọkụ rechapụ ya.
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.
Chineke etinyela ya nʼobi ha imejupụta nzube ya site nʼinwe otu obi nakwa inyefe anụ ọhịa ahụ ikike ọchịchị alaeze ha, tutu ruo mgbe a ga-emezu okwu Chineke.
18 The woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth."
Ma nwanyị a ị hụrụ bụ obodo ukwu ahụ na-achị ndị eze niile nke ụwa.”
