Revelation 13
1 And he took up a position upon the sands of the sea-shore. Then I saw a Wild Beast coming up out of the sea, and he had ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten kingly crowns, and inscribed on his heads were names full of blasphemy.
Agwọ ochie ahụ guzoro nʼakụkụ nʼọnụ oke osimiri ahụ. Ma ahụrụ m otu anụ ọhịa ka o si nʼime oke osimiri na-arịpụta. Anụ ọhịa a nwere isi asaa na mpi iri. Okpueze iri dịkwa nʼelu mpi ndị a. Aha e dekwasịrị nʼisi asaa ahụ nʼotu nʼotu bụ ikwutọ na ikwuhie Chineke.
2 The Wild Beast which I saw resembled a leopard, and had feet like the feet of a bear, and his mouth was like the mouth of a lion; and it was to the Dragon that he owed his power and his throne and his wide dominion.
Anụ ọhịa a m hụrụ dị ka agụ, ma ụkwụ ya dịka ụkwụ anụ ọhịa bịa. Ọnụ ya dịkwa ka nke ọdụm. Agwọ ochie ahụ nyere ya ike ya, na ocheeze ya na ikike dị ukwuu.
3 I saw that one of his heads seemed to have been mortally wounded; but his mortal wound was healed, and the whole world was amazed and followed him.
Otu nʼime isi ya nwere ọnya buru ibu, nke pụrụ iwetara ya ọnwụ, e mere ka ọnya ahụ laa. Ụwa niile sobere anụ ọhịa ahụ nʼazụ nʼịtụnanya.
4 And they offered worship to the Dragon, because it was to him that the Wild Beast owed his dominion; and they also offered worship to the Wild Beast, and said, "Who is there like him? And who is able to engage in battle with him?"
Ha kpọrọ isiala nye agwọ ochie ahụ nʼihi na o nyere anụ ọhịa ahụ ikike dị otu a. Ha bidokwara ịkpọ isiala nye anụ ọhịa ahụ, na-asị, “Ebee ka onye ahụ nọ, nke dị ukwuu karịa ya, onye pụkwara ibu agha megide ya?”
5 And there was given him a mouth full of boastful and blasphemous words; and liberty of action was granted him for forty-two months.
E nyekwara anụ ọhịa ahụ ọnụ na ike ikwu okwu mpako na ikike ikwulu ekwulu ọnwa iri anọ na abụọ.
6 And he opened his mouth to utter blasphemies against God, to speak evil of His name and of His dwelling-place--that is to say, of those who dwell in Heaven.
O meghere ọnụ ya malite ikwulu Chineke, na aha ya na ebe obibi ya, na ndụ ahụ bụ ndị bi nʼeluigwe.
7 And permission was given him to make war upon God's people and conquer them; and power was given him over every tribe, people, language and nation.
E nyere ya ike ibuso ndị nsọ agha na imeri ha. E nyekwara ya ikike ịchị agbụrụ niile, na ebo niile, na ndị niile, na mba niile na asụsụ niile.
8 And all the inhabitants of the earth will be found to be worshipping him: every one whose name is not recorded in the Book of Life--the Book of the Lamb who has been offered in sacrifice ever since the creation of the world.
Ndị niile bi nʼelu ụwa ga-akpọkwa isiala nye ya, bụ onye ọbụla a na-edeghị aha ya nʼime akwụkwọ nke ndụ nke Nwa atụrụ ahụ e gbururị, site nʼoge e kere ụwa.
9 Let all who have ears give heed.
Onye nwere ntị ya nụrụ.
10 If any one is eager to lead others into captivity, he must himself go into captivity. If any one is bent on killing with the sword, he must himself be killed by the sword. Here is an opportunity for endurance, and for the exercise of faith, on the part of God's people.
“Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị onye ọbụla a ga-adọta nʼagha, ọ bụ ha ka a ga-adọtakwa nʼagha. Ọ bụrụ na ọ dị onye ọbụla ga-anwụ site na mma agha, aghaghị iji mma agha gbuo ha.” Ka nke a bụrụ ihe ịgbaume na iguzosikwa ike nʼokwukwe nke ndị Chineke.
11 Then I saw another Wild Beast, coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like those of a lamb, but he spoke like a dragon.
Mgbe ahụ kwa, ahụrụ m anụ ọhịa ọzọ dị iche ka o si nʼala na-arịpụta. O nwere mpi nta abụọ dịka mpi Nwa atụrụ, kama ọ na-ekwu okwu dịka agwọ ochie ahụ.
12 And the authority of the first Wild Beast--the whole of that authority--he exercises in his presence, and he causes the earth and its inhabitants to worship the first Wild Beast, whose mortal wound had been healed.
Ọ na-achị isi nʼọnọdụ anụ ọhịa nke mbụ. Ọ bụkwa ike a ka o ji kwagide ụwa na ndị niile bi nʼime ya ka ha kpọọ isiala nye anụ ọhịa mbụ ahụ nke a gwọrọ ọnya ya na-eweta ọnwụ.
13 He also works great miracles, so as even to make fire come down from Heaven to earth in the presence of human beings.
Ọ na-emekwa ọtụtụ oke ihe ịrịbama dị iche iche. O mere ọbụladị ka ọkụ si na mbara eluigwe daa nʼụwa nʼihu mmadụ niile.
14 And his power of leading astray the inhabitants of the earth is due to the marvels which he has been permitted to work in the presence of the Wild Beast. And he told the inhabitants of the earth to erect a statue to the Wild Beast who had received the sword-stroke and yet had recovered.
O duhiekwara ndị mmadụ bi nʼụwa site nʼọrụ ịrịbama ya niile nke e nyere ya ike ịrụ nʼọnọdụ anụ ọhịa ahụ. Ọ gwakwara ndị niile bi nʼụwa ka ha kpụọ ihe oyiyi nke anụ ọhịa ahụ nke e jiri mma agha merụchaa ahụ, ma mechaa dị ndụ.
15 And power was granted him to give breath to the statue of the Wild Beast, so that the statue of the Wild Beast could even speak and cause all who refuse to worship it to be put to death.
E nyere ya ike ikunye ume ndụ nʼime oyiyi nke anụ ọhịa mbụ ahụ, ime ka ihe a kpụrụ akpụ kwuo okwu mekwa ka e gbuo ndị niile na-akpọghị isiala nye ya.
16 And he causes all, small and great, rich and poor, free men and slaves, to have stamped upon them a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads,
O nyere iwu ka onye ọbụla, onye ukwu na onye nta, ọgaranya na ogbenye, ohu na onye nwe onwe ya, nata akara nʼaka nri maọbụ nʼegedege ihu ha.
17 in order that no one should be allowed to buy or sell unless he had the mark--either the name of the Wild Beast or the number which his name represents.
Ya mere, ọ dịghị onye ọbụla nwere ike ịzụ ahịa maọbụ ree ahịa ma ọ bụrụ na onye ahụ enweghị akara a, nke bụ aha anụ ọhịa ahụ, maọbụ ihe e ji mara ya, maọbụ ọnụọgụgụ nọchiri aha ya.
18 Here is scope for ingenuity. Let people of shrewd intelligence calculate the number of the Wild Beast; for it indicates a certain man, and his number is 666.
Nke a ka chọrọ amamihe maka ịghọta ya. Ka onye ọbụla nwere ọgụgụisi, gụọ ọnụọgụgụ nke anụ ọhịa ahụ, nʼihi na ọ bụ ọnụọgụgụ mmadụ. Ọnụọgụgụ ahụ bụkwa narị isi na iri isi na isii, ya bụ 666.
