< Revelation 17 >
1 One of the seven angels, who had [one of] the seven bowls, came to me. He said to me, “Come [with me], and I will show you how [God] will punish the very evil [city that is represented by] [SYM] a prostitute, a city in which there are many canals [of] water.
Sama tunno anyimo ibeu inu sanare andesa wa inta muso monu sunare mo ē magun “Aye inbezewe uweki utize udandang tuka dura uginome sama ciki azesere ma ē gbardang.
2 [It is as though] the rulers of earth have acted immorally [and idolatrously] with the people of that city [MET], and they [have persuaded people] who live on the earth to act immorally [and idolatrously] with them [MET], [just like a prostitute persuades men to drink] the [strong] wine [she gives them, resulting in their] becoming drunk [and] then committing sexual immorality. with her.”
Ahira me ani agomo unee wa wuzi timumu ti madini nan ma nyimo utarsa umeme umadini mani wa wuna ti cukum tu nee wa humza”
3 Then, as [God’s] Spirit [controlled me], the angel carried me away to a desolate area. There I saw a woman who was sitting on a red beast. The beast had names [written] all over itself. They were names that (insulted/spoke evil against) [God]. The beast had seven heads and ten horns.
Ine ini bibeu bi kadura ka Asere bizikum anyimo abibeu bidusani ani ja, manno ma iri vannu eh ma ciki azesere abi nama ba'iro bivo mazin tize timadini. bina ma ba'iro me bazin tiye tinu sunare nan na hure anu kirau.
4 The woman [that I saw] was wearing purple and red [clothes]; and gold, precious stones, and pearls were fastened to her [clothes and her body]. She held in her hand a golden cup. The cup was full of [a liquid that represents] [SYM] the detestable/disgusting, idolatrous things and filthy immoral things that she [does].
Uneme ma soki uzo wapo awalwalnan napo ina ma yaironan na azuma awal-wal. ma inta. iso yapo iwalwal atari tumeme nan timumu tizenzen gbardang nan tige sa anyara me tiniba nan madini mutarsa aneh.
5 This name, that has a hidden/secret [meaning], was written on her forehead: “[This woman is] Babylon, the very evil [city! She acts like] the mother of the prostitutes on the earth. She teaches them to [act] immorally and to worship idols.”
Abi timime anitiki nire niza anyimo ani hunzi “Ubabila nanu, a'ino amakaruwa nan nimum izenzen unēe.
6 I saw that the woman had become drunk as a result of drinking the blood of God’s people, those who had told others about Jesus. When I saw her, I was very bewildered/perplexed.
Ma ira vana u ehme anyimo amaye ma desa wa nyara kadure nan maye mandesa a huza we a nyimo aniza ni Yeso, sa ma iri me, innu kunna biyau kang.
7 The angel said to me, “Do not be bewildered [RHQ]! I will explain to you the hidden/secret meaning of the woman and of the beast on which she rides, the beast that has the seven heads and the ten horns.
Ine ini bibeume bagunmi, “Barki nyanizi ukunna biyau? inde bukiwe nigburang nu neh ugenome sa ma zen tiye usunare nan na hare anu kiraume.
8 The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos )
Biname be iro sawa hiri datti, aname biraniba, aname birani upuru aniwa nige sa nizome nubinani ba. Madi kunna iwano. Yan desa wa rani uneē, an desa a nyetike tiza tuwe me anyimo utakarda uvengize ba dati innu tuba unē-wade kunna biyau barki, uzetu ira ubi nama ba iro sawa rani datti ineni aname birani aname ba, aname ba aye ma mu aye. (Abyssos )
9 Those who [think] wisely [can understand] this: The seven heads [of the beast] on which the woman sits [symbolize] the seven hills [of the city that the woman represents]. They also [symbolize] seven rulers.
Imum iginome i nyara urusa, tiye sunare, tihira ti kon koron tinu sunare tini vanu eh me ma chikin.
10 Five [of those rulers] have died. One is [still alive]. The seventh [ruler] has not yet come. When he comes, he must remain on earth for [only] a short [time].
We agomo anu sunare wani, agomo ucibi warezi, unu inde marani unu inde mamu aye ba, inka ma aye madi wuzi tichukum tu ganiya uhem.
11 The beast that [lived] before and then was not [alive] will be the eighth [ruler]. He will be [evil like] the seven [rulers were, but God] will surely destroy him.
Iname ya iro sa ya rani datti, ine ini aname iraniba, mema ugomo mani unitutari me ugomo mani anyimo agomo sunare, madi dusa ma ka huza we.
12 The ten horns that you saw [represent] ten rulers who have not yet begun to rule. They, together with the beast, will be authorized to rule [people for only a short time, as if it were] [MET] for one hour.
Ahure anu kirau sawa ira ahira agomo kirau wani andesa daki amu nyawe ba, wadi kabi ubari kasi agomo uganiya uginome anni nama ya iro.
13 Those [rulers] will all agree to do the same thing. [As a result] they will give to the beast their power [to rule people] as well as their authority [to rule people] [DOU].
Iriba iwe inde ini, wadi nya tigomo tuweme innu bezi iname yairo me.
14 The rulers and the beast will fight against [Jesus], the [one who is like a] lamb. He will defeat them, because he is Lord [who rules over all other] lords and the King [who rules over all other] kings. Those [people] who are with [and helping him] are the ones whom [God] has chosen, and who keep [serving him] faithfully.”
Wadi wuzi nikono nan vana ubitam ba Asere vana ubitam ba Asere madi reje ahira awe me barki me Ugomo Asere anko co wani ugomo agomo nan desa atitame, nannu zauka”.
15 Then the angel said to me, “The waters that you saw in the city where the prostitute sits represent people-[groups], multitudes [of people], nations, and [speakers of many languages] [MTY].
Bibeu me ba gunme, “Me sawa ira, ahira me sa ukaruwa me sama cikin me, anabu wani, nanni gura nigbardang, nan na nabu ati tem sasas.
16 The ten horns that you saw [represent rulers] [SYM]. They and the beast will hate [the people in the city] [MTY] that the prostitute [represents]. As a result, they will [take away everything that is in the city, as if] they were [MET] leaving it naked. They will [destroy it as if] [MET] devouring flesh/meat, and they will burn it with fire.
Ahure aginome sawa ira we nan ni nama yairome wadi nyari me ukaruwame, wadi samirka me wa ceki me nyenperen, wadi lenbika inama imeme, wadi punsime vat innura.
17 They will do that because God has caused them to decide to do what he wants them to do. As a result, they will let the beast have their power to rule until what God has said is fulfilled {until [they] fulfill what God has said} [MTY].
Ugomo Asere ma wuu amu ruba muweme wa wuzi ivai usuro uhem umeme, waweki urusa umeme wa wuzi uti gomo anicce nibi nama ba iro uhana uganiyame sa Ugomo Asere madi buki tize.
18 The prostitute that you saw [represents] the very evil city [whose leaders] [MTY] rule over the kings of the earth.”
Uneme sa wa ira memani nipin nidandang me sama zin tigomo acce agomo unēe.
