< Revelation 18 >
1 After these things, I saw another angel coming down out of the sky, having great authority. The earth was illuminated with his glory.
Zvino shure kwezvinhu izvi ndakaona umwe mutumwa achiburuka kubva kudenga, ane simba guru, nyika ndokuvhenekerwa nokubwinya kwake.
2 He shouted with a mighty voice, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and she has become a habitation of demons, a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean bird, and a prison of every unclean and detestable beast.
Akadanidzira nesimba nenzwi guru, achiti: Rawa, rawa Bhabhironi guru, uye rava ugaro hwemadhimoni, nejere remweya yese yetsvina, nedendere reshiri dzese dzetsvina dzinovengwa.
3 For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality, the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from the abundance of her luxury."
Nokuti marudzi ese akanwa zvewaini yehasha dzeupombwe hwaro, nemadzimambo enyika akaita upombwe naro, nevashambadzi venyika vakafuma nesimba reumbozha hwaro.
4 I heard another voice from heaven, saying, "Come out of her, my people, that you have no participation in her sins, and that you do not receive of her plagues,
Zvino ndakanzwa rimwe inzwi kubva kudenga richiti: Budai kubva mariri vanhu vangu, kuti murege kuva vagovani vezvivi zvaro, uye kuti murege kugamuchira zvematambudziko aro;
5 for her sins have reached to the sky, and God has remembered her iniquities.
nokuti zvivi zvaro zvasungana kusvika kudenga, naMwari warangarira zvisakarurama zvaro.
6 Return to her just as she returned, and repay her double as she did, and according to her works. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.
Muritsive sezvarakakutsivaiwo imwi, muchiripamhidzira kupamhidzira kunoenderana nemabasa aro; mumukombe iwoyo marakasanganisa iro, murisanganisire kakapamhidzirwa.
7 However much she glorified herself, and grew wanton, so much give her of torment and mourning. For she says in her heart, 'I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see mourning.'
Separakazvikudza kudai napo nekurarama muumbozha, murirwadzise nekurishungurudza saizvozvo; nokuti rinoti mumoyo maro: Ndinogara ndiri mambokadzi, uye handisi chirikadzi, uye handingatongooni kuchema.
8 Therefore in one day her plagues will come: death, mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire; for the Lord God who has judged her is strong.
Naizvozvo achasvika nezuva rimwe matambudziko aro, rufu nekuchema nenzara; uye richapiswa kwazvo nemoto; nokuti ane simba Ishe Mwari anoritonga.
9 The kings of the earth, who committed sexual immorality and lived wantonly with her, will weep and wail over her, when they look at the smoke of her burning,
Nemadzimambo enyika akaita upombwe nekurarama paumbozha naro acharira pamusoro paro nekuchema pamusoro paro, pavachaona utsi hwekupiswa kwaro;
10 standing far away for the fear of her torment, saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city. For your judgment has come in one hour.'
vamire kure nekutya kurwadziwa kwaro, vachiti: Nhamo, nhamo, guta guru Bhabhironi, guta rakasimba, nokuti kutongwa kwako kwasvika neawa rimwe.
11 The merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise any more;
Uye vashambadzi venyika vacharira nekuchema pamusoro paro, nokuti hakuchina munhu achatenga zvitengeswa zvavozve;
12 merchandise of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet, all expensive wood, every vessel of ivory, every vessel made of most precious wood, and of bronze, and iron, and marble;
zvitengeswa zvegoridhe, nezvesirivheri, nezveibwe rinokosha, nezvemaparera nezvemucheka wakaisvonaka, nezvine ruvara rwehute, nezvesiriki, nezvezvitsvuku, nemuti umwe neumwe unonhuhwira, nemarudzi ese emidziyo yenyanga dzenzou, nemarudzi ese emidziyo yematanda anokoshesesa, nezvendarira, nezvedare, nezvemabwe machena;
13 and cinnamon, spice, incense, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, cattle, sheep, horses, chariots, slaves and human lives.
nekinamoni, nezvinonhuhwira, namafuta ekuzora, nezvipfungaidzo zvinonhuhwira, newaini, nemafuta, neupfu hwakatsetseka, nezviyo, nemombe, nemakwai, nezvemabhiza, nengoro, nenhapwa, nemweya yevanhu.
14 The fruits which your soul lusted after have been lost to you, and all things that were luxury and splendor have perished from you, and you will never ever find them again.
Zvino michero yaichiviwa nemoyo wako yakabva kwauri, nezvinhu zvese zvinobwinya nezvinopenya zvabva kwauri, haungatongozviwanizve.
15 The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far away for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning;
Vashambadzi vezvinhu izvi, vakafumiswa naro, vachamira kure nekutya kurwadziwa kwaro, vachichema nekurira,
16 saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city, she who was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls.
uye vachiti: Nhamo, nhamo, guta guru, rakange rakapfeka mucheka wakaisvonaka nezvine ruvara rwehute nezvitsvuku, uye rakashongedzwa negoridhe nebwe rinokosha nemaparera!
17 For in an hour such great riches are made desolate.' Every shipmaster, and everyone who sails anywhere, and mariners, and as many as gain their living by sea, stood far away,
Nokuti neawa rimwe fuma huru yakadai yaparadzwa. Uye mufambisi wezvikepe umwe neumwe, nevese vanofamba pamwe muzvikepe, nevafambi vemuchikepe, nevabati vese vepagungwa vakamira kure,
18 and exclaimed as they looked at the smoke of her burning, saying, 'What is like the great city?'
ndokudanidzira vachiona utsi hwekutsva kwaro, vachiti: Nderipi rakafanana naro guta guru?
19 They cast dust on their heads, and shouting, weeping and mourning, saying, 'Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had their ships in the sea were made rich by reason of her great wealth.' For in one hour is she made desolate.
Zvino vakadira guruva pamisoro yavo, ndokudanidzira vachirira nekuchema, vachiti: Nhamo, nhamo, guta guru, maifumiswa nezvinokosha zvaro vese vaiva nezvikepe pagungwa; nokuti rakaparadzwa neawa rimwe.
20 "Rejoice over her, O heaven, you saints, apostles, and prophets; for God has judged your judgment on her."
Fara pamusoro paro, iwe denga, nemwi vaapositori vatsvene, nevaporofita, nokuti Mwari wakatonga mutongo wenyu kwariri.
21 A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, "Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all.
Zvino mutumwa umwe ane simba wakasimudza ibwe rakaita seguyo guru, akaposhera mugungwa, achiti: Saizvozvo nechisimba Bhabhironi guta guru richaposherwa uye harichazotongowanikwizve.
22 The voice of harpists, minstrels, flute players, and trumpeters will be heard no more at all in you. No craftsman, of whatever craft, will be found any more at all in you. The sound of a mill will be heard no more at all in you.
Nenzwi revaridzi veudimbwa nerevaimbi nerevaridzi venyere nerevaridzi vehwamanda, harichatongonzwikwizve mauri, nemhizha yeumhizha hupi nehupi haichatongowanikwizve mauri, nenzwi reguyo harichatongonzwikwizve mauri;
23 The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you; for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived.
uye chiedza chemwenje hachichatongovhenekerizve mauri, nenzwi remuwani neremwenga harichatongonzwikwizve mauri; nokuti vashambadzi vako vaiva vakuru venyika; nokuti neuroyi hwako marudzi ese akatsauswa.
24 In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth."
Zvino mariri makawanikwa ropa revaporofita nerevatsvene, nerevese vakauraiwa panyika.
