Revelation 14
1 Then, in my vision, I saw the Lamb standing on Mount Zion. With him were a hundred and forty-four thousand, with his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.
Ngĩcooka ngĩrora, na niĩ ngĩona Gatũrũme arũgamĩte Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Zayuni, arĩ na andũ 144,000 arĩa maandĩkĩtwo rĩĩtwa rĩake na rĩĩtwa rĩa Ithe mothiũ-inĩ mao.
2 And I heard a sound from heaven, like the sound of many waters, and like the sound of a loud peal of thunder; the sound that I heard was like the music of harpers playing on their harps.
Ningĩ ngĩigua mũgambo uumĩte igũrũ ũtariĩ ta mũhũyũko wa maaĩ maratherera na ningĩ ta mũrurumo wa ngwa. Mũgambo ũcio ndaiguire watariĩ ta wa aini a inanda cia mũgeeto makĩina na inanda ciao.
3 They are singing what seems to be a new song, before the throne, and before the four creatures and the elders; and no one was able to learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from earth.
Nao makĩina rwĩmbo rwerũ marĩ mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, na marĩ mbere ya ciũmbe iria inya irĩ muoyo, na athuuri. Gũtiarĩ mũndũ ũngĩahotire kwĩruta rwĩmbo rũu tiga o acio 144,000 arĩa maakũũrĩtwo kuuma thĩ.
4 These are the men who never defiled themselves in their intercourse with women; they are as pure as virgins. These are the men who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were redeemed as the first-fruits of mankind for God and for the Lamb.
Acio nĩ arĩa mateethũkĩtie na andũ-a-nja, nĩgũkorwo nĩmeigĩte marĩ atheru. Nao maarũmagĩrĩra Gatũrũme o kũrĩa guothe aathiiaga. Nĩo maagũrirwo kuuma kũrĩ andũ, na makĩrutwo marĩ maciaro ma mbere kũrĩ Ngai o na kũrĩ Gatũrũme.
5 No lie was ever heard on their lips. They are beyond reach of blame.
Matirĩ hĩndĩ marĩ maheenania; o na matirĩ ũcuuke.
6 Then I saw another angel, flying in mid-heaven. He had the good news, decreed from eternity, to announce to those who live on the earth – to men of every nation, and tribe, and language, and people; (aiōnios g166)
Ningĩ ngĩona mũraika ũngĩ oombũkĩte rĩera-inĩ, nake aarĩ na Ũhoro-ũrĩa-Mwega wa tene na tene wa kũhunjĩria andũ arĩa matũũraga thĩ, ũguo nĩ kuuga ndũrĩrĩ ciothe, na mĩhĩrĩga yothe, na thiomi ciothe, na andũ othe. (aiōnios g166)
7 and he cried in a loud voice – ‘Reverence God, and give him praise (for the hour of his judgment has come) and worship him who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all springs of water.’
Nake akiuga na mũgambo mũnene atĩrĩ, “Mwĩtigĩrei Ngai na mũmũgooce we, tondũ ihinda rĩake rĩa gũtua ciira nĩikinyu. Mũhooei ũrĩa wombire igũrũ, na thĩ, na iria rĩrĩa inene, na ithima cia maaĩ.”
8 Then a second angel followed, crying – ‘She has fallen! She has fallen – Babylon the Great, who has made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her licentiousness!’
Nake mũraika wa keerĩ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩrĩgũu! Itũũra rĩrĩa inene rĩa Babuloni nĩrĩgũu, rĩrĩa rĩanyuithirie ndũrĩrĩ ciothe ndibei ĩrĩa ya maũndũ mooru ma ũtharia warĩo.”
9 Then a third angel followed them, crying in a loud voice – ‘Whoever worships the Beast and its image, and receives its brand on his forehead or on his hand,
Ningĩ mũraika wa gatatũ akĩmarũmĩrĩra, nake akĩanĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũndũ o wothe angĩhooya nyamũ ĩyo na mũhiano wayo, na ekĩrwo rũũri rwayo thiithi kana guoko-rĩ,
10 that person will drink the maddening wine of God that has been poured unmixed into the cup of his wrath, and they will be tortured with fire and sulfur before the eyes of the holy angels and before the eyes of the Lamb.
o nake nĩakanyua ndibei ĩyo ya marakara ma Ngai, ĩrĩa ĩitĩrĩirwo gĩkombe-inĩ kĩa mangʼũrĩ make ĩtatukanĩtio na kĩndũ. Nake nĩakanyariirwo na mwaki wa ũbiriti mbere ya araika arĩa atheru na mbere ya Gatũrũme.
11 The smoke from their torture rises for ever and ever, and they have no rest day nor night – those who worship the Beast and its image, and all who are branded with its name.’ (aiōn g165)
Nayo ndogo ya kĩnyariirĩko kĩao ĩgũtũũra yambataga nginya tene na tene. Gũtirĩ kĩhurũko mũthenya kana ũtukũ kũrĩ arĩa mahooyaga nyamũ ĩyo na mũhiano wayo, kana kũrĩ mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa wĩkĩrĩtwo rũũri rwa rĩĩtwa rĩayo.” (aiōn g165)
12 (Here there is need for endurance on the part of Christ’s people – those who lay to heart the commands of God and the faith of Jesus.)
Haha nĩhabataire ũkirĩrĩria harĩ andũ arĩa aamũre, o arĩa maathĩkagĩra Maathani ma Ngai, na magatũũra marĩ ehokeku harĩ Jesũ.
13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying ‘Write: “Blessed are the dead who from this hour die in union with the Lord.”’ “Yes,” answers the Spirit, “that they may rest from their toil. Their good deeds go with them.”
Ngĩcooka ngĩigua mũgambo woima igũrũ ũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Andĩka atĩrĩ: Kũrathimwo-rĩ, nĩ andũ arĩa akuũ, arĩa makuĩte marĩ thĩinĩ wa Mwathani kuuma rĩu.” Nake Roho ekuuga atĩrĩ, “Ĩĩ, nĩguo makĩhurũke mawĩra mao maritũ, nĩgũkorwo ciĩko ciao iria maneeka nĩikamoima thuutha.”
14 Then, in my vision, I saw a white cloud, and on the cloud there was sitting one like a man. On his head he had a crown of gold, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
Ningĩ ngĩrora, ngĩona hau mbere yakwa haarĩ na itu rĩerũ, na itu rĩu nĩrĩaikarĩirwo nĩ mũndũ “wahaanaga ta mũrũ wa mũndũ” arĩ na thũmbĩ ya thahabu mũtwe, na arĩ na rũhiũ rũũgĩ rwa kũgetha guoko-inĩ gwake.
15 Then another angel came out from the Temple, crying in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud – ‘Take your sickle and reap, for the time to reap has come; the Harvest of Earth is ready.’
Nake mũraika ũngĩ akiuma thĩinĩ wa hekarũ, agĩĩta mũndũ ũcio waikarĩire itu na mũgambo mũnene, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya rũhiũ rũu rwa kũgetha, ũgethe, tondũ ihinda rĩa kũgetha nĩikinyu, nĩgũkorwo magetha ma thĩ nĩ makũrũ.”
16 He who was sitting on the cloud brought his sickle down on the earth, and the Harvest of Earth was reaped.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, mũndũ ũcio waikarĩire itu akĩhiũrĩria rũhiũ rwake thĩ, nayo thĩ ĩkĩgethwo.
17 Then another angel came out of the Temple in heaven; he, also, had a sharp sickle.
Nake mũraika ũngĩ akiuma thĩinĩ wa hekarũ kũu igũrũ, o nake aarĩ na rũhiũ rũũgĩ rwa kũgetha.
18 Then another angel came out of the altar; he had power over fire, and he called in a loud voice to the angel that had the sharp sickle – ‘Take your sharp sickle, and gather the bunches from the vine of Earth, for its grapes are ripe.’
Na mũraika ũngĩ, ũrĩa wathaga mwaki, akiuma kĩgongona-inĩ, agĩĩta ũcio warĩ na rũhiũ rũũgĩ rwa kũgetha na mũgambo mũnene, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya rũhiũ rũu rwaku rũũgĩ rwa kũgetha, na ũcookanĩrĩrie imanjĩka cia thabibũ kuuma harĩ mũthabibũ ũrĩa wa thĩ tondũ thabibũ ciayo nĩ njĩru.”
19 The angel brought his sickle down on the earth and gathered the fruit of the vine of Earth, and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
Nake mũraika ũcio akĩhiũrĩria rũhiũ rwake thĩ, agĩcookereria thabibũ ciayo, na agĩcooka agĩciikia kĩhihĩro-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩnene kĩa mangʼũrĩ ma Ngai.
20 The grapes were trodden in the press outside the city; and blood came out of the press, rising as high as the bridles of the horses for a distance of two hundred miles.
Nacio ikĩrangĩrĩrio kĩhihĩro-inĩ kĩrĩa kĩarĩ nja ya itũũra inene, nayo thakame ĩgĩtherera yumĩte kĩhihĩro-inĩ, ĩgĩkinya handũ ha itĩĩna rĩa mairũ ta igana rĩa mĩrongo ĩnana, na ĩkĩambata o nginya ĩgĩkinya mĩkwa-inĩ ĩrĩa yohaga mbarathi tũnua.
