Revelation 12
1 Then something very unusual appeared in the sky. It was a woman, whose [appearance and] clothing were [MET] as bright as the sun. The moon was under her feet. On her head was a crown [that was made] of twelve stars.
Ikivalilo ikivaha kikavoneka kukyanya: un'dala juno aluafwikilue nulujuva, akale nu mwesi psi pamaghulu gha mwene; ni ngeela ija nondue kijigho ni fivili sikale pakyanya pa muutu ghwa mwene.
2 She was pregnant. Then, as she was about to give birth, she cried out because she was suffering pain.
Alyale namimba kange akalilagha vwimila vwa vuvafi vwa kuhola nuvuvafi uvwa kukufungula.
3 Something else very unusual appeared in the sky. It was a huge red dragon. It had seven heads and ten horns. On each of its heads was a royal crown.
Likivalilo ikinge kikavoneka kukyanya: Lolagha! Kulyale ni njooka indangali imbaha jino jilyale na maatu lekela lubale na mapembe kijigho kimo kange pe kulyale ni ngigha lekela lubale mumatue gha seene.
4 The dragon’s tail dragged a third of the stars from the sky and threw them to the earth. The dragon set himself in front of the woman who was about to give birth, in order that he might eat her child as soon as it was born.
Unkila ghwa jeene ghukasyolagha ikighavo kimo ikya nondue ku kyanya nakutagha pasi pa iisi. Injoka jikima pavulongolo pa mama juno akale pipi kuhola, ulwakuuti unsiki ghuno ihola, apate kukun'kulubika umwana ghwa mweene.
5 The woman gave birth to a son, who [is destined] to rule all the nations with [complete authority as if he was using] [MET] an iron rod [MET]. [God] snatched away her child and took him to [rule from] his throne.
Alyamuholile umwana, umwana juno ilikufitema ifipelela fyooni mu lukwegho ulwa kyuma. Umwana ghwa mwene alya tomolilue ku kyanya kwa Nguluve ku kitengo ikya mwene ikya vutua,
6 The woman fled to a desert. She has a place there that God has prepared for her, in order that [the angels] may take care of her for 1,260 days.
naju mama alyakimbilile kulukuve pala pano u Nguluve alyapaling'anisie kuva apuo kulwa mweene, ulwakuuti atanguie ifighono mbilima jimo nifughono ntanda.
7 [In the vision I saw that] there was a battle in heaven. Michael and the angels that he [commanded] fought against the dragon. The dragon and his angels fought back [against Michael and his angels].
Lino kwelilyale ililugu kukyanya. U Mikaeli na vanyamola vake vakalwisagha ni njooka imbaha na vanyamola va mweene vakalwisagha na voope.
8 But the dragon did not win the battle, so [God] did not allow the dragon and his angels to stay in heaven any longer.
Looli injoka najilyale ni ngufu sino sikwiline kulefia. Pa uluo na pwevulyale kange uvwelefu kukyanya kwa mwene na vanyamola va mwene.
9 The huge dragon was thrown {[Michael and his angels] threw the huge dragon} out [of heaven]. The dragon is the ancient serpent, [the one] who is called the Devil and Satan. He is the one who deceives [people all over] the earth. He was thrown down to the earth, along with all his angels.
Injoka im'baha injoka jila ja pakali jino jitambulivua ibilisi nambe usetano juno isyanga - iisi jooni akataghua paasi pa iisi, nava vanyamola va mwene vakataghua paasi palikimo nu mweene.
10 Then I heard [someone] in heaven shout loudly, saying, Now our God has saved his people by his power, and he rules everyone! Now the Messiah, the one who is the supreme ruler whom God appointed, has authority to rule all people, because our God has thrown out of heaven the one who accuses our fellow believers! The dragon is the one who accuses them day and night before our God, saying that they have sinned and that God ought to punish them.
Kange pe nikapulika ilisio ilivaha kuhuma ku kyanya: “Lino uvupoki vwisile, ningufu nu vutua vwa Nguluve ghwitu, nuvutavulilua vwa kilisite ghwa mweene. Ulwakuva umwoheesi ghwa nyalukolo vitu ataghilue pasi–– juno avaholagha pavulongolo pa Nguluve ghwiitu pamwisi na pakilo.
11 Our fellow believers overcame the dragon because they never stopped trusting (OR, never stopped telling people about) Jesus, and because they trusted in what Jesus, the one who is like a lamb, accomplished when his blood flowed when he died. Even though those believers wanted to live, they were willing to let people kill them for speaking the truth about him.
Valyan'tolile ni danda ja mwanang'olo na kulisio lya vwolesi vuvanave, ulwakuva navalighanile fiijo uvukalo vuvanave, nambe kufua.
12 So, all you angels living [MTY] in heaven, rejoice! But terrible things will happen to you ungodly people who [MTY] live on the earth and on the ocean, because the devil has come down to you! He is very angry because he knows that he has only a short time during which he can harm people.
Pauluo, lulutilagha, umue kukyanya, numue mwevano mukukala mun'kate mu jeene. Looli iiga ku iisi na kunyanja ulwakuva umosi ikile kulyumue. Amemile ing'alasi, ulwakuva akagwile kuuti alinu nsiiki n'debe.
13 When the dragon realized that he had been thrown {that [the angels] had thrown him} down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to a son.
Un'siki injoka pano jikakagwile kuuti jitaghilue pasii pa iisi, akamfuata u mwana mama juno alyaholile umwana un'dimi.
14 But the woman was given two wings like the wings of a very large eagle, in order that she might fly to a desolate place. That is a place [that God] has prepared for her. There she was taken care of {[God’s angels] took care of her} for three and a half years. The serpent, [that is, the dragon], was not able to reach her there.
Looli umwana mama alyapelilue amapika gha vavili agha masimula ing'ome, ulwakuti akagule ku pululuka kufika pala pano pakaling'anisivue jujuo ku lukuve, pala pano panoghile kulolua nu mwene, kunsiiki, amasiki kukimenyule kya nsiinki - pano najinoghile pikupafikila injoka jiila.
15 The serpent spewed water like a river from his mouth in the direction of the woman, in order that the water might sweep her away.
Injoka jikakung'a amalenga kuhuma mumulomo ghwa jene ndavule ikikogha, ulwa kuuti jivombeke ghonsyole.
16 But the ground helped the woman [by] opening up and swallowing the river that the dragon spewed out from his mouth!
Looli iisi jikatanga umwana mama. Jikahaama umulomo ghwa jene na pigulubika ikikogja kino jikafunyile injokabkuhuma mumulomo ghwa jene.
17 Then the dragon was very angry with the woman, so he went away to fight against [the people who are like] the rest of her descendants. They are the people who obey God’s commandments and who tell other people about Jesus (OR, hold fast to what Jesus taught them).
Pe injoka jikan'alalila u mama jula ghwope pe akavuka na pivomba uvulugu nikipelela kya mwene kyooni vala vano vileva ku ndaghilo sa Nguluve na pigadilila uvuhosi vwimila u Yesu.
