Revelation 14
1 Then I looked and behold a Lamb standing on mount Sion, and with Him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written on their foreheads.
Nilitazama na nikaona Mwana Kondoo amesimama mbele yangu juu ya Mlima Sayuni. Pamoja naye walikuwa 144, 000 wenye jina lake na jina la Baba yake limeandikwa katika vipaji vya nyuso zao.
2 And I heard a voice from heaven, like the noise of many waters, and as the sound of great thunder; and I heard the sound of harpers playing on their harps:
Nikasikia sauti kutoka mbinguni ikisikika kama ngurumo za maji mengi na sauti kubwa ya radi. Sauti niliyoisikia ni kama wapiga vinubi wapigao vinubi vyao.
3 and they sung as it were a new song before the throne; and before the four living ones, and the elders: and none could learn the song, but the hundred and forty four thousand, who are redeemed from the earth.
Wakiimba wimbo mpya mbele za kiti cha enzi na mbele za wenye uhai wanne na wazee. Hakuna hata mwenye uwezo wa kujifunza huo wimbo isipokuwa kwa 144, 000 ambao wamekombolewa kutoka duniani.
4 These are they who were not defiled with women; for they are virgins: these are they who follow the Lamb whithersoever He goeth: these were redeemed from among men, as the first-fruits unto God and the Lamb.
Hawa ni wale ambao hawakujichafua wenyewe kwa wanawake, maana walijitunza wenyewe dhidi ya matendo ya zinaa. Ni hawa ambao walimfuata Mwana Kondoo popote alipoenda. Hawa walikombolewa kutoka kwa wanadamu wakiwa matunda ya kwanza kwa Mungu na kwa Mwana Kondoo.
5 And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are blameless before the throne of God.
Hakuna uongo uliopatikana katika vinywa vyao; hawalaumiwi.
6 And I saw another angel flying in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel, to preach to those that dwell upon the earth, to every nation, and tribe, and tongue, (aiōnios g166)
Nikaona malaika mwingine akiruka katikati ya mbingu, ambaye mwenye ujumbe wa mbinguni wa habari njema kwa kuwatangazia wenye kuishi duniani kwa kila taifa, kabila, lugha, na watu. (aiōnios g166)
7 and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the time of his judgement is come: and worship Him that made the heaven, and the earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Akawaita kwa sauti kuu, “Mwogopeni Mungu na mpeni utukufu. Kwa maana muda wa hukumu umekaribia. Mwabuduni yeye, yeye aliyeumba mbingu, na dunia, na bahari, na chemchemi za maji.”
8 And another angel followed, saying, Babylon the great city is fallen, is fallen; because she made all nations drink of the wine of her furious fornication.
Malaika mwingine - malaika wa pili - akafuata akisema, “Umeanguka, umeanguka Babeli mkuu, ambaye uliwanywesha mataifa divai ya ukahaba, divai ambayo ilileta ghadhabu juu yake.”
9 And a third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any one worship the beast and his image, and receive the mark on his forehead,
Malaika mwingine - malaika wa tatu - aliwafuata, akasema kwa sauti kuu, “Yeyote atakayemwabudu huyo mnyama na sanamu yake, na kupokea alama katika paji lake la uso au mkononi,
10 or on his hand, he also shall drink of the wine of God's indignation poured forth without mixture, in the cup of his wrath; and shall be tormented with fire and brimstone, in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb.
yeye pia atakunywa divai ya ghadhabu ya Mungu, divai ambayo imeandaliwa na kumwagwa bila kuchanganywa katika kikombe cha hasira yake. Mtu atakayekunywa atateswa kwa moto na moto wa kiberiti mbele za malaika zake watakatifu na mbele za Mwana Kondoo.
11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth for ever and ever: and they have no rest, day and night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. (aiōn g165)
Na moshi wa maumivu yao ukaenda milele na milele, na hawakuwa na mapumziko mchana au usiku - hao waabuduo mnyama na sanamu yake, na kila mtu aliyepokea alama ya jina lake. (aiōn g165)
12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Huu ni wito wa subira na uvumilivu kwa waamini, wale ambao hutii amri za Mungu na imani katika Yesu.”
13 And I heard a voice from heaven, saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead, that die in the Lord, from henceforth: yea, saith the Spirit, for they rest from their labors and their works do follow them.
Nilisikia sauti kutoka mbinguni ikisema, “Andika haya: Heri wafu wafao katika Bwana.” “Ndiyo,” asema Roho, “ili waweze kupumzika kutoka kwenye kazi zao, maana matendo yao yatawafuata.”
14 And I saw, and behold, a white cloud, and one sitting on the cloud like the Son of man; having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
Nilitazama na nikaona kulikuwa na wingu jeupe, na aliyeketi kwenye wingu ni mmoja aliyekuwa na mfano wa Mwana wa Mtu. Alikuwa na taji ya dhahabu katika kichwa chake na mundu mkali katika mkono wake.
15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to Him that sat upon the cloud, Put in thy sickle and reap; for the time to reap is come, for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
Malaika mwingine tena alikuja kutoka kwenye hekalu na aliita kwa sauti kuu kwenda kwa yule aliyekaa katika wingu: “Chukua mundu wako na uanze kuvuna. Kwa kuwa muda wa mavuno umeshawadia, maana mavuno yaliyo katika dunia yameshaiva.”
16 And He that sat upon the cloud put forth his sickle on the earth, and the earth was reaped.
Tena yule aliyekuwa kwenye wingu aliupitisha mundu wake juu ya dunia, na dunia ikavunwa.
17 And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle.
Na malaika mwingine akaja kutoka kwenye hekalu la mbinguni; naye alikuwa na mundu mkali.
18 And another angel came out from the altar, who had power over the fire; and he called out with a loud cry to Him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Put in thy sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth, for its grapes are ripe.
Na bado malaika mwingine akaja kutoka kwenye madhabahu, na malaika aliyekuwa na mamlaka juu ya moto. Akamwita kwa sauti kuu malaika ambaye alikuwa na mundu mkali, “Chukua mundu mkali na uyakusanye matawi ya mzabibu kutoka kwenye mzabibu wa nchi, kwa kuwa zabibu sasa zimeiva.”
19 And the angel put forth his sickle to the earth, and stript the vine of the earth, and cast the grapes into the great wine-press of God's wrath.
Malaika alipeleka mundu wake katika dunia na alikusanya mavuno ya zabibu ya dunia na alirusha katika pipa kubwa la divai ya ghadhabu ya Mungu.
20 And the wine-press was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the wine-press, even to the horses bridles, a thousand six hundred furlongs off.
Chujio la divai lilipondwapondwa nje ya mji na damu ikamwagika kutoka katika hicho kimo cha hatamu ya farasi, kwa stadia 1, 600.
