< Revelation 14 >

1 Then I looked, and behold, the Lamb was standing on Mount Zion, and with him was a multitude numbering one hundred forty-four thousand, who had 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 voice from heaven like the roar of many waters and like the sound of great thunder. The voice I heard was like the sound of harpists playing 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 were singing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from the 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 ones who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They have been redeemed by Jesus from among men as firstfruits to God and 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 found in their mouths, for they are blameless.
Matirĩ hĩndĩ marĩ maheenania; o na matirĩ ũcuuke.
6 Then I saw an angel flying directly overhead, with an eternal gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth, to every nation, tribe, tongue, 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 He said with a loud voice, “Fear the Lord and give him glory, because the hour of his judgment has come. Worship him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the 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 A second angel followed, saying, “Fallen is Babylon the great! She has made all the nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.”
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 A third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or 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 he too will drink of the wine of the wrath of God that has been mixed undiluted in the cup of his anger. He will be tormented with fire and sulfur in the presence of the holy angels and in the presence 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 And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. There is no rest day or night for those who worship the beast and his image or for anyone who receives the mark of his 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 This calls for the endurance of the saints, those who keep the commandments of God and hold fast to their faith in 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 die in the Lord from now on.’” “Yes,” says the Spirit, “that they may rest from their labors, and their works will follow 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 I looked, and behold, there was a white cloud, and sitting on the cloud was one like a son of man, with a golden crown on his head and a sharp sickle in his hand.
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 And another angel came out of the temple, crying out with a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud, “Take yoʋr sickle and reap, because the hour to reap has come, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.”
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 So he who was sitting on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the 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 too had a sharp sickle.
Nake mũraika ũngĩ akiuma thĩinĩ wa hekarũ kũu igũrũ, o nake aarĩ na rũhiũ rũũgĩ rwa kũgetha.
18 And another angel, who had authority over the fire, came out from the altar and called out with a loud cry to the angel who had the sharp sickle, “Take yoʋr sharp sickle and gather the clusters from the vintage of the earth, for the grapes of the earth 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 So the angel swung his sickle across the earth, gathered the vintage of the 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 Then the winepress was trodden outside the city, and blood came out of the winepress, as high as a horse's bridle, for one thousand six hundred stadia.
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.
