Revelation 4
1 After these things, I looked and lo, a door was open in heaven. And the first voice which I heard, was as of a trumpet talking with me. It said, Come up hither; and I will show thee the things that must occur hereafter.
Pa cindici ndalabona cimboni mboni nacimbi, ndalabona cishinga ca kwilu cacaluka. Maswi alikunyumfwiketi kulila kwa tolompita ngondali kunyumfwa kamba kuli njameti, “Kwesa kuno ndikuleshe bintu byeti bitatike kwinshika panyuma pa ibi.”
2 Instantly, I was in the Spirit: and lo, a throne was placed in heaven; and there was one seated on the throne.
Mushimu wa Lesa mpowalamfukata, ndalabona cipuna ca Bwami kwilu ne uyo walikuba wekalapo.
3 And he who sat, was like the appearance of a jasper-stone, and of a sardine sard, and of a rainbow of the clouds, round about the throne, in form as the appearance of emeralds.
Uyo walikuba wekala pa cipuna cinso cakendi calikubeketi mabwe akute kukwiweti Yasipi ne Kolinali. Ico cipuna calikuba cashingulukwa ne nkongolo yabeketi mabwe akute kukwiweti Emalodi.
4 Around the throne were twenty and four seats; and upon those seats sat twenty and four Elders, who were clothed in white robes, and on whose heads were coronets of gold.
Cipuna cabwami ico calikuba cashingulukwa nebipuna nabimbi makumi abili ne bina apo palikuba pekala bamakulene bali makumi abili ne bana bafwala minjila ituba ne ngowani sha bwami.
5 And from the throne proceeded lightnings, and the sound of thunders; and seven lamps of fire were burning before his throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
Kubyasha kwali kufuma ku cipuna, nako kwilu kwalatatala ne kukunkuma. Pantangu pa cipuna palikuba malampi asanu ne abili alikubangila, iyi emishimu isanu ne ibili ikute kusebensela Lesa.
6 And before the throne, as it were a sea of glass like crystal; and in the midst of the throne, and around it, and before the throne, were four Animals, full of eyes in their front and in their rear.
Kayi pantangu pa cipuna palikuboneketi lwenje lwabeketi gilasi lwalikubangileti libwe likute kukwiweti Kulistali. Pakati kati kushinguluka cipuna ca bwami cisa, palikuba bya buyumi bina byalikukute menso angi kuntangu ne kunyuma.
7 And the first Animal resembled a lion; and the second Animal resembled a calf; and the third Animal had a face like a man; and the fourth Animal resembled an eagle when flying.
Cabuyumi cakutanguna calikuboneketi inkalamu, catubili eti ng'ombe, cabutatu calikukute cinso cilyeti muntu, kayi ca cina calikuboneketi cikumbula laulukunga mwilu.
8 And these four Animals had, each of them, six wings around it: and within they were full of eyes: and they have no cessation, day or night, from saying: Holy, Holy, Holy, the Lord God, the Omnipotent, who was, and is, and is to come.
Cili conse ca bya buyumi bina ibi, calikukute mapepe asanu ne limo alikukute menso paliponse mukati ne kunsa. Munshi ne mashiku kwakubula kulekesha bikute kabimbileti, “Waswepa, waswepa, waswepa ni Mwami Lesa wa Ngofu shonse, ewalikubako, euliko kayi elesanga.”
9 And when these Animals give glory and honor and praise to him that sitteth on the throne, to him who liveth for ever and ever, (aiōn g165)
Bya buyumi ibi bina, bikute kwimbila nyimbo shabulemeneno shakulemekesha kayi ne kulumbanya uyo wekala pa cipuna muyumi kwamuyayaya. (aiōn g165)
10 the twenty and four Elders fall down before him who sitteth on the throne, and they worship him who liveth for ever and ever; and they cast their coronets before the throne, saying, (aiōn g165)
Mpobyalikwimbila, bamakulene makumi abili ne bana, balawa panshi pantangu pa uyo wekala pa cipuna ne kumukambilila, uyo ukute buyumi bwamuyayaya. Kabawala ngowani shabo pantangu pa cipuna ca bwami kabambeti, (aiōn g165)
11 Worthy art thou, O Lord our God, the Holy, to receive glory and honor and power; for thou hast created all things, and by thee they exist; and because of thy pleasure they had being and were created.
“O Mwami Lesa wetu! Mwelela kupewa bulemeneno kulemekeshewa ne kushikayishiwa cebo ca ngofu shenu, Pakwinga mwalabumba bintu byonse, Kayi cebo ca kuyanda kwenu byonse mpobili ni biyumi.”
