Revelation 1
1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to shew unto his servants, [even] the things which must shortly come to pass: and he sent and signified [it] by his angel unto his servant John;
Lokwalo lo lo senola ditiro dingwe tse di tlaa akofang di diragala ka lobaka lo lo tlang mo botshelong jwa ga Jesu Keresete. Modimo o mo letlile go senolela motlhanka wa gagwe Johane dilo tse mo ponatshegelong; mme moengele a romelwa a tswa legodimong go tlhalosa gore ponatshegelo e raya eng.
2 who bare witness of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, [even] of all things that he saw.
Johane a kwala gotlhe mo, ebong Mafoko a Modimo le a ga Jesu Keresete le sengwe se a se utlwileng le se a se bonyeng.
3 Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
Fa o balela phuthego polelo pele e, o tlaa amogela lesego le le faphegileng le le tswang mo Moreneng. Ba ba e reetsang fa e balwa ba bo ba dira se e se bolelang, le bone ba tlaa segofala. Gonne lobaka lo atametse lo dilo tse di tlaa diragalang ka lone.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from him which is and which was and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
Lo ke lokwalo lo lo tswang kwa go: Johane A kwalela: Diphuthego tse supa mo Asia. Ditsala tse di rategang: A tshegofatso le kagiso tse di tswang mo Modimong di nne le lona. Yo o leng teng, le yo o neng a le teng le yoo tlang! Le mo meweng e e supang e e fa pele ga setilo sa gagwe sa Bogosi;
5 and from Jesus Christ, [who is] the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loveth us, and loosed us from our sins by his blood;
le mo go Jesu Keresete yo ka go ikanyega a re senolelang boammaaruri jotlhe. Ke ene wa ntlha go tsoga mo baswing, le go sa tlholeng a a swa. O mogolo go feta kgosi nngwe le nngwe mo lefatsheng lotlhe. A a bakwe yo o re ratang ka metlha yotlhe le yo o re gololang mo dibeng tsa rona ka go re tshololela madi a gagwe a botshelo.
6 and he made us [to be] a kingdom, [to be] priests unto his God and Father; to him [be] the glory and the dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
O re phuthetse mo Bogosing jwa gagwe a bo a re dira baperesiti ba Modimo Rraagwe. Mo neeng kgalalelo ka go sa feleng! o busa ka bosakhutleng! Amen. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he cometh with the clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they which pierced him; and all the tribes of the earth shall mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
Bonang! O e tla, a dikaganyeditswe ke maru; mme matlho otlhe a tlaa mmona, ee, le ba ba mo tlhabileng. Le dichaba di tlaa lela ka khutsafalo le ka poifo fa a tla, Ee! Amen!
8 I am the Alpha and the Omega, saith the Lord God, which is and which was and which is to come, the Almighty.
“Ke nna Alefa le Omeka, Tshimologo le Bokhutlo jwa dilo tsotlhe,” go bua jalo Modimo, yo e leng Morena, yo e leng Mothatayotlhe yo o leng teng, le yo o neng a le teng le yo o tlang gape!
9 I John, your brother and partaker with you in the tribulation and kingdom and patience [which are] in Jesus, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus.
Ke nna, mokaulengwe wa lona Johane, yo ke tlhakanetseng pitlagano le lona, yo ke lo kwalelang lokwalo lo. Le nna ke abalana le lona bopelotelele jo Jesu o re bo nayang, ebile re tlaa tlhakanela Bogosi jwa gagwe! Ke ne ke le mo setlhaketlhakeng sa Patemosa, ke kobetswe teng ka ntlha ya go rera Lefoko la Modimo, le go bolela se ke se itseng kaga Jesu Keresete.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet
E ne e le ka letsatsi la Morena mme ebile ke ne ke obama, fa ka tshoganetso ke utlwa lentswe le le tsholetsegileng fa morago ga me, lentswe le le neng le utlwala jaaka tumo ya torompeta.
11 saying, What thou seest, write in a book, and send [it] to the seven churches; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
Le re, “Ke nna Alefa le Omega, Tshimologo le Bokhutlo!” Mme ka mo utlwa a re, “Kwala sengwe le sengwe se o se bonang, mme o romele lokwalo lwa gago mo diphuthegong di supa tse di mo Asia: mo phuthegong e e mo Efeso, e e mo Semerena, tse di mo Peregamose, Thiatira, Seredisa, Filadelefia mo Laodisia.”
12 And I turned to see the voice which spake with me. And having turned I saw seven golden candlesticks;
Erile fa ke retologa bona yo o neng a bua le nna, teng fa morago ga me ga bo go le dipone di supa tsa gauta.
13 and in the midst of the candlesticks one like unto a son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about at the breasts with a golden girdle.
Mme mo gare ga tsone ga bo go eme mongwe yo o neng a tshwana le Jesu yo o neng a ipitsa Morwa Motho, a apere kobo e telele a itlamile ka moitlamo wa gauta go kgabaganya sehuba sa gagwe.
14 And his head and his hair were white as white wool, [white] as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
Moriri wa gagwe o ne o le mosweu jaaka bobowa kgotsa kapoko, le matlho a gagwe a ntse jaaka kgabo ya molelo.
15 and his feet like unto burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace; and his voice as the voice of many waters.
Dinao tsa gagwe di ne di phatsima jaaka kgotlho e e ntlafaditsweng mo leubelong le lentswe la gagwe la gagwe le Suma jaaka makhubu a lewatle a itaaka lotshitshi.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength.
O ne a tshotse dinaledi di supa mo seatleng sa gagwe se segolo le chaka e e lootsegileng e e ntlha pedi mo molomong wa gagwe, le sefatlhogo sa gagwe se phatshima jaaka nonofo ya letsatsi mo go senang maru.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as one dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying, Fear not; I am the first and the last,
Erile ke mmona, ka wela fa dinaong tsa gagwe jaaka ekete ke sule; mme a baya seatla sa gagwe se segolo mo go nna a re, “Se boife! Le fa ke le wa Ntlha le wa Bofelo,
19 Write therefore the things which thou sawest, and the things which are, and the things which shall come to pass hereafter;
“Kwala se o ntseng o se bona, le se o tlaa tlogang o se supegediwa.
20 the mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks are seven churches.
Se ke tlhaloso ya dinaledi tse di supang tse o di bonyeng mo seatleng sa me se segolo, le dipone tse di supang tsa gauta: dinaledi tse di supang ke baeteledipele ba diphuthego di supa, mme ditlhomo tse di supang ke diphuthego ka bo tsone.
