< Revelation 6 >
1 And I saw, when the Lamb opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures saying, as with a voice of thunder—Go!
Zvino ndakaona Gwayana parakazarura chimwe chemicherechedzo, ndokunzwa chimwe chezvisikwa zvipenyu zvina chichiti, senzwi remutinhiro: Uya uone.
2 And I saw, and lo! a white horse, —and he that was sitting thereon holding a bow; and there was given unto him a crown, and he went forth conquering, and that he might conquer.
Zvino ndakaona, uye tarira, bhiza jena, naiye wakaritasva wakange ane uta; korona ndokupiwa kwaari, zvino akabuda achikunda, uye kuti akunde.
3 And, when he opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature, saying—Go!
Zvino rakati razarura mucherechedzo wechipiri, ndakanzwa chisikwa chipenyu chechipiri chichiti: Uya uone.
4 And there went forth another, a red horse, —and, unto him that was sitting thereon, it was given, [unto him], to take away peace from the earth, and that, one another, they should slay; and there was given unto him a great sword.
Zvino kwakabuda rimwe bhiza dzvuku; newakaritasva akapiwa simba kuti abvise rugare panyika, nokuti vaurayane; ndokupiwa kwaari munondo mukuru.
5 And, when he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature, saying—Go! And I saw, and lo! a black horse, and he that was sitting thereon holding a pair of balances in his hand.
Zvino rakati razarura mucherechedzo wechitatu, ndakanzwa chisikwa chipenyu chechitatu chichiti: Uya uone. Zvino ndikaona, uye tarira, bhiza dema, newakange akaritasva wakange ane chiyereso muruoko rwake.
6 And I heard as a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying—A quart of wheat for, a denary, and three quarts of barley, for a denary, —and, the oil and the wine, do not wrong.
Zvino ndakanzwa inzwi pakati pezvisikwa zvipenyu zvina richiti: Chiyero chezviyo nedhenario, nezviyero zvitatu zvebhari nedhenario; nemafuta newaini usazvitadzira.
7 And, when he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature, saying—Go!
Zvino rakati razarura mucherechedzo wechina, ndakanzwa inzwi rechisikwa chipenyu chechina richiti: Uya uone.
8 And I saw, and lo! a livid horse, —and he that was sitting thereupon had for a name, Death, and, Hades, was following with him; and there was given unto them authority over the fourth of the earth, to slay with sword, and with famine, and with death, and by the wild beasts of the earth. (Hadēs )
Zvino ndakaona, uye tarira, bhiza rakachenuruka, newakange akaritasva zita rake Rufu; uye hadhesi rakateverana naye. Simba ndokupiwa kwazviri kuuraya kusvika pane chechina chenyika, nemunondo, uye nenzara, uye nerufu, uye nezvikara zvenyika. (Hadēs )
9 And, when he opened the fifth seal, I saw, beneath the altar, the souls of them who had been slain because of the word of God and because of the witness which they held.
Zvino rakati razarura mucherechedzo wechishanu, ndakaona pasi pearitari mweya yevakange vaurawa nekuda kweshoko raMwari, uye nekuda kweuchapupu hwavaiva nahwo.
10 And they cried out with a loud voice, saying—How long, O Sovereign, the Holy and True, dost thou not vindicate and avenge our blood from them that dwell upon the earth?
Zvino vakadana nenzwi guru vachiti: Kusvikira rinhi, Tenzi, mutsvene uye wechokwadi, regai kutonga nekutsiva ropa redu pane vanogara panyika?
11 And there was given to them, each one, a white robe, and it was bidden them, that they should rest yet a little while—until the number should be made full of their fellow-servants also, and their brethren, who were about to be slain as even, they.
Zvino kwakapiwa umwe neumwe nguvo refu chena, zvikanzi kwavari vambozorora chinguva chidiki kusvikira vamwewo varanda pamwe navo nehama dzavo dzaiva dzoda kuurawa saivowo vakwaniswa.
12 And I saw, when he opened the sixth seal, that a, great earthquake, took place; and, the sun, became black as sackcloth of hair, and, the full moon, became as blood,
Zvino ndakaona parakange razarura mucherechedzo wechitanhatu, uye tarira, kwakava nekudengenyeka kwenyika kukuru, uye zuva rakasviba sesaga remvere, nemwedzi ukaita seropa;
13 and, the stars of heaven, fell to the earth, as, a fig-tree, sheddeth her winter figs, when, by a great wind, it is shaken,
nenyeredzi dzedenga dzakawira panyika, semuonde unowisa maonde awo eshure, uchizuzwa nemhepo huru.
14 and, the heaven, was withdrawn, as a scroll rolling itself up, and, every mountain and island, out of their places, were shaken.
Zvino denga rakabva serugwaro rwakapetwa; negomo rega-rega nechiwi zvakabviswa panzvimbo dzazvo.
15 And, the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rulers of thousands, and the rich, and the mighty, and every bondman and freeman, hid themselves within the caves and within the rocks of the mountains;
Nemadzimambo enyika, nevanhu vakuru, nevafumi, nevatungamiriri vehondo, nevane simba, nevaranda vese, nevakasununguka vese vakanozvivanza mumapako nemumabwe emakomo,
16 and they say, unto the mountains and unto the rocks—Fall upon us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth upon the throne, and from the anger of the Lamb;
zvino vakati kumakomo nekumabwe: Wirai pamusoro pedu, mutivige pachiso chaiye anogara pachigaro cheushe, nepakutsamwa kweGwayana;
17 Because the great day of their anger is come, and who is able to stand?
nokuti zuva guru rekutsamwa kwaro rasvika; zvino ndiani anogona kumira?
