< Revelation 1 >
1 This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John,
Obho ndo ufunuo bhwa Yesu Kristu ambabho K'yara ampelili ili kubhalasya bhatumishi bha muene mambo ambagho lazima ghah'omelayi karibuni. Akhetili ghamanyikanayi kwa kundaghisya malaika ghwa muene kwa n'tumishi ghwa muene Yohana.
2 who testified to God’s word and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.
Yohana ah'omisye bhushuhuda bhwa khila khenu kyaabhuene kuhusiana ni lilobhi lya K'yara ni bhushuhuda bhwa bhwapisibhu kuhusu Yesu Kristu.
3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is near.
Abarikibhu muene jhaisoma kwa sauti ni bhala bhoha bhabhakaghap'el'eka malobhi gha unabii obho ni kutii kya kilembibhu omu, kwa ndabha muda bhukaribili.
4 John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;
Yohana, kwa makanisa saba ghaghajhele Asia: neema jhijhiaghe kwa muenga ni amani kuhomela kwa muene jhaajhele, a'ajhele, ni jhaibeta kuhida ni kuhomela kwa roho saba bhabhajhele palongolo pa kiti kya muene kya enzi,
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood—
Ni kuhoma kwa Yesu Kristu ambajhe ndo shahidi mwaminifu, mzabhwa bhwa kuanda ghwa bhafu ili, ni mtawala ghwa bhafalme bha dunia ejhe. kwa muene jha atuganili ni kutubheka huru kuhoma mu dhambi sya jhotu kwa damu jha muene,
6 and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father—to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
atubhombili kujha ufalme, makuhani bha K'yara ni Dadimunu kwa muene kujha utukufu ni nghofu milele daima. Amina. (aiōn )
7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
Langayi, ihida ni mabhengu; khila lihu libeta kumbona, pamonga ni bhoha bhabhan'homili. Ni makabila ghoha gha dunia bhibeta kuomboleza kwa muene. Ena, Amina.
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
“Nene ndo Alfa ni Omega,” ijobha Bwana K'yara, “Muene jhe ajhele ni jhaihida, jhaajhe ni nghofu.”
9 I John, your brother and partner with you in the oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God’s Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Nene Yohana- ndongo bhinu na mmonga jhaishiriki pamonga namu mu malombosi ni ufalme ni uvumilivu thabiti bhabhujhele mwa Yesu; Najhele mu kisiwa kya kukutibhwa patimo kwandabha jha lilobhi lya K'yara ni bhushuhuda kuhusu Yesu.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet
Najhele mu Roho ligono lya Bwana. Nap'eliki kunyumba jha nene sauti mbaha kama jha tarumbeta,
11 saying, “What you see, write in a book and send to the seven assemblies: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”
j'hijobha, “jhandikayi mu kitabu gha mkaghabhona na ughatumayi ku makanisa saba, kulota Efeso, kulota Smirna, kulota Pergamo, kulota Thiatira, kulota Sardi, kulota Philadelphia, ni kulota Laodikia.”
12 I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lamp stands.
Nageuki kulola sauti jha niani jha alongeleghe ni nene, na bho nigeuke na bhuene kinara kya dhahabu kya taa saba.
13 And amongst the lamp stands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.
Pagati pa kinara kya taa ajhele mmonga kama mwana ghwa Adamu, afwalili likanzu litali jhajhifikili pasi pa magolo gha muene, ni n'kanda bhwa dhahabu kusyongoka kifua kya muene.
14 His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.
Mutu ni njwili sya muene syajhele sibhalafu kama safu sibhalafu kama theluji, ni mihu gha muene kama mwali ghwa muoto.
15 His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.
Njayu sya muene syajhele kama shaba jhejhisugulibhu nesu, kama shaba jhajhipetesibhu pa muoto, ni sauti jhiake jhajhele kama sauti jha masi mingi ghaghitiririka kwa kasi.
16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
Akamulili mat'ondo saba mu kibhoko kya muene kya kuume, ni kuhoma mu ndomo ghwa muene kwajhele ni bhupanga ukali ghwaghujhele ni makali kubhele. Pamihu pa muene pang'areghe kama mwanga n'kali bhwa lijobha.
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, “Don’t be afraid. I am the first and the last,
Bho nimbhwene, nabinili pamagolo gha muene kama munu jhaafuili. Abhekili kibhoko kya muene kya kulia panani pa nene ni kujobha, “Usitili! Nene ndo ghwa kuanda ni ghwa mwishu,
18 and the Living one. I was dead, and behold, I am alive forever and ever. Amen. I have the keys of Death and of Hades. (aiōn , Hadēs )
na jhanitama. Nafwili, lakini langayi, nitama milele! Na nijhele ni fungulu sya mauti ni kuzimu. (aiōn , Hadēs )
19 Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter.
Kwa hiyo, ghalembayi gha ughabhwene, ghaghajhele henu, ni ghala ghaghibeta kutokela baada jha agha.
20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lamp stands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lamp stands are seven assemblies.
Kwandabha jhajhikifighili kuhusu matondo saba gha ughabhwene mu kibhoko kyangu kya kuume, ni khela kinara kya dhahabu Kya taa saba; Matondo saba ndo malaika ghwa ghala makanisa saba ni kinara kya taa saba ndo ghala makanisa saba.”
