Revelation 13
1 Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.
Na ɔwɔ no kɔgyinaa mpoano hɔ. Afei, mehunuu sɛ aboa bi apue ɛpo no mu reba. Na ɔwɔ mmɛn edu ne tire nson a na ahenkyɛ hyehyɛ mmɛn no biara so na edin a ɛgu Onyankopɔn ho fi bobɔ etire no ho.
2 The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
Aboa a mehunuu no no, na ɔte sɛ ɔsebɔ a ne nan te sɛ sisi, na nʼano nso te sɛ gyata. Ɔtweaseɛ no de ɔno ankasa ahoɔden ne nʼahennwa ne ne tumi nyinaa maa aboa no.
3 One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.
Mehunuu sɛ wɔapira ne tiri no baako a ayɛ sɛ wɔrentumi nkum kuro no, nanso na kuro no awu. Aboa no ho yɛɛ ewiasefoɔ nyinaa nwanwa, enti wɔtu dii nʼakyi.
4 They worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
Nnipa nyinaa somm ɔtweaseɛ no, ɛfiri sɛ, ɔde ne tumi nyinaa ama aboa no. Wɔsomm aboa no nso kaa sɛ, “Hwan na ɔte sɛ aboa no? Na hwan na ɔbɛtumi ne no ako?”
5 A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.
Wɔmaa aboa no kwan maa ɔkaa abususɛm akɛseakɛseɛ tiaa Onyankopɔn, na wɔmaa no tumi sɛ ɔnyɛ deɛ ɔpɛ biara abosome aduanan mmienu.
6 He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, his dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.
Ɔhyɛɛ aseɛ domee Onyankopɔn, ne din, baabi a ɔte ne wɔn a wɔte ɔsoro nyinaa.
7 It was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.
Wɔmaa no ɛkwan ma ɔne Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ koeɛ sɛ ɔbɛdi wɔn so. Na wɔmaa no aman ne mmusuakuo ne nkurɔfoɔ ne kasa nyinaa mu so tumi.
8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
Nnipa a wɔte asase so nyinaa bɛsom no: obiara a wantwerɛ ne din anhyɛ ateasefoɔ nwoma a ɛwɔ Odwammaa a wɔkumm no no mu ansa na wɔrebɔ ewiase.
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
“Tie, wo a wowɔ aso, bɛtie.
10 If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
“Obiara a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkyere no no, wɔbɛkyere no. Obiara a ɛsɛ sɛ wɔkum no akofena ano no, wɔbɛkum no.” Yei mu boasetɔ ne gyidie ho hia Onyankopɔn nkurɔfoɔ.
11 I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.
Afei, mehunuu aboa foforɔ a ɔrepue afiri asase mu. Na ɔwɔ mmɛn mmienu te sɛ nnwammaa, nanso na ɔkasa te sɛ ɔtweaseɛ no.
12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
Ɔsii aboa a ɔdi ɛkan no ananmu de ne tumi kɛseɛ no dii dwuma, na ɔhyɛɛ asase ne ɛso nnipa sɛ wɔnsom deɛ nʼapirakuro no awu no.
13 He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.
Aboa a ɔtɔ so mmienu yi yɛɛ anwanwadeɛ akɛseɛ bebree. Ɔmaa ogya firi ɔsoro baa asase so wɔ nnipa nyinaa anim.
14 He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast, saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.
Na ɔnam anwanwadeɛ a wɔmaa no ho ɛkwan yɛeɛ wɔ aboa a ɔdi ɛkan no anim no so daadaa nnipa a wɔte asase so nyinaa. Aboa no ka kyerɛɛ ewiase nnipa nyinaa sɛ, wɔnsi ohoni mfa nhyɛ aboa a wɔde akofena piraa no nanso nʼapirakuro no awu na ɔte ase no animuonyam.
15 It was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.
Wɔmaa aboa a ɔtɔ so mmienu no ɛkwan ma ɔhomee nkwa guu aboa a ɔdi ɛkan ohoni no mu, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a ohoni no bɛtumi akasa, na wakum obiara a ɔnsom no no.
16 He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands or on their foreheads;
Aboa no hyɛɛ nnipa nyinaa, nketewa ne akɛseɛ; adefoɔ ne ahiafoɔ, nkoa ne wɔn a wɔde wɔn ho sɛ wɔnhyɛ wɔn nsa nifa ho ne wɔn moma so agyiraeɛ.
17 and that no one would be able to buy or to sell unless he has that mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
Obiara nni ho ɛkwan sɛ ɔtɔ anaa ɔtɔn, gye sɛ wɔde aboa no din anaa nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɛgyina hɔ ma edin no hyɛ ne ho agyiraeɛ.
18 Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred sixty-six.
Yei hia ma nyansa. Obiara a ɔnim nyansa no bɛtumi ahunu nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ a ɛgyina hɔ ma aboa no ase, ɛfiri sɛ, nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ no gyina hɔ ma onipa edin. Ne nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ yɛ ahansia aduosia nsia.
