< Revelation 11 >

1 [An angel gave] to me a reed similar to a measuring stick. He said [to me], “[Christ says this: ‘Go] to the temple [where people worship] God, measure it and the altar [in it], and count the people who worship there.
Bi den teni nni sabmuanu, ke min taa un tua bonbiigtiagu, ki yedi nni, “Fii ki biigi U Tienu jaandidiegu yeni li jaandbinbinli, yeni yaaba n pugi ku niinni.
2 But do not measure the courtyard outside [of the temple] [DOU], because [it] has been given {[God] has given it} to [the] non-Jewish [people. As a result], they will trample [Jerusalem city] for 42 months.
Ama, ŋan da biigi ku jaandidiegu cancanli, kelima bi cabi li bi nilanba. Bi ba ŋmaa ki fanbi u dogcianŋamu hali piina n ŋmaali lie (ŋm 42)
3 I will appoint my two (witnesses/men who will tell others about me). They will proclaim what I reveal to them for 1,260 days. They will wear [rough] clothes made from goat’s hair [to show that they are sad about people’s sin].’”
N ba puni n kasiedi tondba yaaba n laá ti pabɔntiadi yeni, u fidu ban ya pua sawali hali tudli n kobilie n dana piiluoba
4 Those [witnesses are the ones] that are represented by the two olive trees and the two lampstands that are in the presence of the Lord [who rules] the earth [SYM].
Lanya kasiedinba tie Olifie tiliedi yeni ya fidsantuankaanlieda yia n den seé ki tinga Diedo kani yeni.
5 If enemies try to harm those [witnesses], fire will come from the mouths of the witnesses and destroy them. If people want to harm them, [the two witnesses] will certainly kill them similarly.
Ya nilo bigni ke wan tieni ba yaali n bia, u ba ña bi ñɔbu nni ki biani bi yibalinba. Yua n bigni ke wan tieniyaali n bia kuli, o ba kpe yeni i.
6 Those [witnesses] will have authority to keep rain from falling during the time that they are proclaiming what God reveals to them. They also will have authority to cause water [everywhere] to become [red like] [MET] blood, and [authority] to cause all kinds of plagues to occur. They will do this as often as they want to.
Li kasiedinba pia u fidu yeni ban luoni ti taawalgbandi, ke taaga kan nii ya yogu ke bi pua sawali. Bi pia ya paalu ke bi ba cedi mi ñima ń tua sɔma, ki lu falaciamo janjanbuoli kuli ki tinga po, ban bua ya yognu kuli.
7 When they have finished proclaiming [to people the message from God], the beast that comes up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit) will attack them, overcome them, and kill them. (Abyssos g12)
Bi ya tieni bi kasiedi ki gbeni, ki yanbiadga yagi n ba ña ki kpientinga buoñuangu nni ba pua bu tɔbu yeni ba, ki paadi ba, ki kpa ba. (Abyssos g12)
8 The dead bodies of the [two] witnesses will lie in the street of the great city where their Lord was crucified, the city that is symbolically named Sodom or Egypt [because its people are very evil, like the people who lived in Sodom and Egypt].
Bi gbannandi baa bili u dogciamu sanciamu po (ban tieni nannanli ki yini yuu Sodoma yeni Ejipti), naani ke bi den kpaa ki tabni bi Diedo.
9 Individuals of many people-[groups], tribes, language [groups] [MTY], and nations will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days. But these individuals will not allow [anyone] to bury their bodies.
Ya niba n ñani i nibuoli kuli, i dogi kuli yeni i maalanbuoli kuli baa nua bi gbannandi hali dana taa yeni bɔgdima. Bi kan tuo ban pii ba kuli nni.
10 When the [rebellious] people who live on the earth [see that the witnesses are dead], they will rejoice and celebrate. They will send gifts to each other, because these two prophets had [caused plagues to occur which] tormented the [rebellious] people on the earth.
Yaaba n ye ki tinga po baa mangdi bipala, ki tiendi u badu bi kuuma po. Bi ba sɔni bi paabu ki teni biyaba kelima ya kasiedinba ne den wangi ki tinga po yaaba fala.
11 But after three and a half days, God will cause those two witnesses to breathe again and live. They will stand up, and those who see them will be terrified.
Ama dana taa yeni bɔgdima pendima, li miali faawaama ba ña U Tienu kani, ki kua bi niinni, ban fii ki sedi bi taana po. Ti jawaanciandi ba kua yaaba n ba la ba kuli.
12 The [two witnesses] will hear a loud voice which came from heaven saying to them: “Come up here!” Then they will go up to heaven in a cloud. Their enemies will see them [as they ascend].
Bi ba gbadi ke nialu ñani tanpoli, ki tándi ki yedi ba, “Do mani ki cua ne!” Lanwani ii, bi ba do tanpoli ti taawalgbandi nni, ke bi yibalinba nua ba.
13 At that same time there will be a terrible earthquake, which will cause a tenth of [the buildings in] [MTY] the city will collapse, and 7,000 people will die. The rest of the people will be afraid and [acknowledge] that the God [who rules in] heaven is awesome.
Lanyognu, mi tinjegicianma ba tieni, u dogciamu bɔgdima taalma piiga ba libi. Niba tuda lele ba kpe li tinjegibma nni, ti jawaanciandi ba kua yaaba tindi, ban kpiagi tanpoli Tienu yeli.
14 That will be the second terrible event. [Be aware that] the third tragic event will happen soon.
Falabiado janjanliema pendi n yeni. Diidi! O falabiadtaalo janjanma kan waagi yeni mi cuama.
15 Then the seventh angel blew [his trumpet]. Angels in heaven shouted loudly, “Our Lord [God] and the Messiah [whom he has appointed] can now govern [everyone in] [MTY] the world, and they will continue to rule people forever!” (aiōn g165)
O malekileleedo den piebi o naatunli, ke u nialciamu ñani tanpoli ki yedi, “Ki tinga badciamo diema ji tua ti Diedo yeni o Kiristi diema i. O baa diedi ma hali ya yognu n ki pia gbenma” (aiōn g165)
16 The 24 elders who sit on their thrones in God’s presence (prostrated themselves/bowed down low) and worshipped him.
Ke piilie n nikpenaadba yaaba n den kaa bi badigbandi po yeni baa ki labni. Bi den pugi U Tienu.
17 They said: Lord God, you are the Almighty One! You are the one who exists now! You are the one who has always existed! We thank you that you have defeated by your power everyone who has rebelled against you, and you now rule over everyone in the world.
Bi den yedi'”Ti jaandi a, ti Diedo U Tienu, u paaciamu daano, Yua ye, ki bo ye, kelima a taa a paaciamu fidu, ki cili ki diedi bonli kuli. Li bonli kuli yudaano, yua ye, ki bo ye, ki go ba cua,
18 The unbelieving people of [MTY] the nations were raging at you. As a result you have become very angry with them. You have decided that this is the appropriate time for you to judge all the dead people. You have also decided that it is the time for you to reward all your servants, both the prophets and the rest of your people who reverence you [MTY], whether they were considered socially significant/important or socially insignificant/unimportant. It is time for you to reward all of them! You have also decided it is the time for you to destroy the people who are destroying others on the earth.
Li gaadli den cuo ki tinga po yaaba, ama a pabienli jiidi ki cua. U yogu pundi bi kpienba po, ke ŋan jia bi buudi ki jaandi a tondba bi sawalpuaba yeni a paabu, bi dugkaaba, talginba yeni bi paatieba kuli yeni yaabi n den fangi a yeli. U yogu pundi ke ŋan biani yaaba n den biidi ki tinga.”
19 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened {was open} and [I] saw in the temple the sacred box/chest that contains God’s commandments. Lightning was flashing, it was thundering and rumbling, the earth shook, and large hailstones [fell from the sky].
U Tienu jaandidiegu tanpoli po den luodi, ke ŋantaadi lolma kpagu nua ku niinni. I taañigdi yenyenma, li taadunli, i taatantandi, mi tinjegibma yen ki taacianga yeni a taatana den tieni.
