< Revelation 1 >

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave to him, to point out unto his servants the things which must needs come to pass with speed, —and he shewed them by signs, sending through his messenger, unto his servant John;
Nyaa nga cha umukulilwe Yesu Kirisitu ambao Nnungu apelwe kualangya abandu bake makowew ambago lazima ga pa pilya karibuni. Apangite gatanganikwe kwabkumtuma malaika wake kwa mbanda wake Yohana.
2 who bare witness as to the word of God, and the witness of Jesus Christ, —whatsoever things he saw.
Yohana apiya ushuhuda wa kila kilibe cha kibweni usiana na likowe lya Nnungu ni kwa ushuhuda wa upiite husu Yesu Kirisitu.
3 Happy! he that readeth, and they who hear, the words of the prophecy, and keep the things, therein, written; for, the season, is, near.
Abalikiwe ywembe ywa soma kwa lilobe na balu babayua maneno ga unabii gano na kugatii chakiandikilwe muno, kitumbu muda uti karibia.
4 John, unto the Seven Assemblies which are in Asia, Favour to you, and peace, from—Him who Is, and who Was, and who is Coming, and from—The Seven Spirits which are before his throne,
Yohana kwa makanisa saba ga gabile Asia: neema ibe kwinu na amani buka kwa ywabile, ywapabaa, na ywapaicha na buka kwa Roho saba bababile nnongi ya kitigo chake cha enzi.
5 and from—Jesus Christ, —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 out of our sins with his blood, —
Na buka kwa Yesu Kirisitu ambeye nga shahidi mwaminifu mmelkekwa wa kwanza ba bawile, na ntawala wa mfalme dunia yino, kwa ywembe ywatupendile na atubikite huru buka mmalau gitu kwa damu yake.
6 and he hath made us [to be] a kingdom—priests unto his God and Father, Unto him, be the glory, and the dominion, unto the ages. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Atupangite panga ufalme wa makuhani wa Nnungu na Tate bake kwake panga tukuka na ngupu milelebdaima. Amina. (aiōn g165)
7 Lo! he cometh with the clouds, and every eye shall see him, such also as pierced him; and all the tribes of the land shall smite themselves for him. Yea! Amen.
Linga andaicha na maunde kila lio lipakumwona pamoja boti babamwomite. Na kabila yoti ya dunia bapakukulika kwake. Ndiyo, Amina.
8 I, am, the A, and, the Z, saith the Lord, —the, God who Is, and who Was, and who is Coming, The Almighty.
Nenga nga Alfa na Omega abaya Ngwana Nnungu, ywembe ywabile na ywapabaa, na ambaye andaicha mwene ngupu.
9 I, John, your brother, and partaker with you in the tribulation and kingdom and endurance in Jesus, came to be in the isle that is called Patmos, because of the word of God, and the witness of Jesus.
Nenga Yohana nuna winu na kati yinu ywa shiriki mateso na ufalme na uvumumilia thabiti wa ubile katika Yesu; nabile pa kisiwa cha kikemelwa Patimo kitumbu cha neno la Nnungu na ushuhuda usu Yesu.
10 I came to be, in Spirit, in the Lord’s Day, and heard, behind me, a loud voice, as of a trumpet,
Nabile katika Roho lichuba la Ngwana, nayuwine nchugu yangu lilobe la kunani kati ya tarumbeta,
11 saying—What thou seest, write in a scroll, and send unto the Seven Assemblies, —unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamum, —and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, —and unto Laodicea.
Yaibaya, uandike katika kitabu ga ugabona na ugatume kwa makanisa saba yenda Efeso, yenda Smima, yenda Pergamo, yenda Thiatira, yenda Sardi, yenda Philadelphia na yenda Laodikia.
12 And I turned round, to see the Voice which was speaking with me, and, having turned, I saw Seven Lamps of gold;
Nitigalambuka linga ni lilobe lya nyai ywabile kalongela na nee, na panigalambwike nabweni kinara cha dhahabu cha taa saba.
13 and, in the midst of the lamps, One like unto a Son of Man: —clothed with a robe, reaching to the feet, and girt about at the breasts with a girdle of gold,
Pakatikati ya kinara cha taa abile yumo kati mwana wa Adamu, aweti ngamu ndacho yaukite pai ya magulu gake, na mkanda wa dhahabu tindia pa kiuba.
14 And his head and hair, white, like white wool—like snow, and, his eyes, like a flame of fire,
Mtwe wakwe na nywili yake yai uu kati pamba kati barafu na minyo gake gabi mwali wa mwoto.
15 And, his feet, like unto glowing copper, as if in a furnace refined, and, his voice, like a sound of many waters,
Njayo yake yabi kati shaba yahikutilwe sana, kati shaba yaipitile katika mwoto, na lilobe lyake yabi kati machi maingi gaga yenda kwa haraka.
16 And, having in his right hand, seven stars, and, out of his mouth, a sharp, two-edged sword, going forth; and, his whole appearance, as when, the sun, shineth in its strength.
Abi akamwi ndondwa saba katika luboko lwake wa mmalyo, na buka mukano wake mwabi na lipanga likale wene makale kuno na kuno. Kuminyo yake kwende ng'araa kati mwenga nkalee walichuba.
17 And, when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead, and he laid his right hand upon me, saying—Do not fear! I, am the First, and the Last,
Pamweni, natitumbuka pamagulu gake kati mundu nywa wile. Abikite luboko lwake mmalyo panani yangu na baya “Kana uyogope” Ninga na wa kwanza na wa mwisho.
18 and the Living One, —and I became dead; —and lo! living, am I, unto the ages of ages, and have the keys of death and of hades. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
Na ambaye nenda ishi. Nati waa, lakini linga nenda ishi bila waa! Na nibile na funguo ya mautiu na kuzimu. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
19 Write, therefore—what things thou hast seen and what they are; and what things are about to come to pass, after these things:
Kwaiyo ugaaandike ga ugabweni nambiambi, na galo gagapita baadaye,
20 The sacred secret of the seven stars, which thou sawest upon my right hand, and the seven lamps of gold: —The seven stars, are, messengers of the seven assemblies, and, the seven lamps, are, seven assemblies
kwa maana yaiyubite husu ndondwa saba yauibweni katika luboko lwangu lwa mmalyo, na chilo kinara kinara cha dhahabu cha taa saba: ndondwa saba nga malaika wa makanisa saba, na kinara cha taa saba nga galo makanisa saba.
