Revelation 12
1 And a greet signe apperide in heuene; a womman clothid with the sunne, and the moone vndur hir feet, and in the heed of hir a coroun of twelue sterris.
Ishara kuu ilionekana mbinguni: mwanamke aliyefunikwa na jua, na akiwa na mwezi chini ya miguu yake; na taji ya nyota kumi na mbili ilikuwa juu ya kichwa chake.
2 And sche hadde in wombe, and sche crieth, trauelynge of child, and is turmentid, that sche bere child.
Alikuwa na mimba na alikuwa analia kwa ajili ya maumivu ya kuzaa—katika uchungu wa kujifungua.
3 And another signe was seyn in heuene; and lo! a greet reede dragoun, that hadde seuene heedis, and ten hornes, and in the heedis of hym seuene diademes.
Na ishara nyingine ilionekana mbinguni: Tazama! Kulikuwa na joka mwekundu mkubwa ambaye alikuwa na vichwa saba na pembe kumi, na kulikuwa na taji saba kwenye vichwa vyake.
4 And the tail of hym drow the thridde part of sterris of heuene, and sente hem in to the erthe. And the dragoun stood bifore the womman, that was to berynge child, that whanne sche hadde borun child, he schulde deuoure hir sone.
Mkia wake ulikokota theluthi moja ya nyota mbinguni na kuzitupa chini duniani. Joka alisimama mbele ya mwanamke aliyekuwa anakaribia kuzaa, ili kwamba wakati anazaa, apate kummeza mtoto wake.
5 And sche bar a knaue child, that was to reulinge alle folkis in an yrun yerde; and hir sone was rauyschid to God, and to his trone.
Alimzaa mwana, mtoto wa kiume, ambaye atayatawala mataifa yote kwa fimbo ya chuma. Mtoto wake alinyakuliwa juu kwa Mungu na kwenye kiti chake cha enzi,
6 And the womman flei in to wildirnesse, where sche hath a place maad redi of God, that he fede hir there a thousynde daies two hundrid and sixti.
na mwanamke alikimbilia nyikani, mahali ambapo Mungu alikuwa ameandaa eneo kwa ajili yake, ili aweze kuhudumiwa kwa siku 1, 260.
7 And a greet batel was maad in heuene, and Myyhel and hise aungels fouyten with the dragoun. And the dragoun fauyt, and hise aungels;
Sasa kulikuwa na vita mbinguni. Mikaeli na malaika zake wakapigana na yule joka; naye joka mkubwa na malaika zake wakapigana nao.
8 and thei hadden not myyt, nether the place of hem was foundun more in heuene.
Lakini joka hakuwa na nguvu za kutosha kushinda. Kwa hiyo haikuwepo tena nafasi mbinguni kwa ajili yake na malaika zake.
9 And thilke dragoun was cast doun, the greet elde serpent, that is clepid the Deuel, and Sathanas, that disseyueth al the world; he was cast doun in to the erthe, and hise aungels weren sent with hym.
Joka mkubwa—yule nyoka wa zamani aitwaye ibilisi au Shetani ambaye hudanganya - dunia nzima akatupwa chini katika dunia, na malaika zake wakatupwa chini pamoja naye.
10 And Y herde a greet vois in heuene, seiynge, Now is maad helthe, and vertu, and kyngdom of oure God, and the power of his Crist; for the accuser of oure britheren is cast doun, which accuside hem bifor the siyte of oure God dai and nyyt.
Kisha nikasikia sauti kubwa kutoka mbinguni: “Sasa wokovu umekuja, nguvu—na ufalme wa Mungu wetu, na mamlaka ya Kristo wake. Kwa kuwa mshitaki wa ndugu zetu ametupwa chini—ambaye aliwashitaki mbele za Mungu wetu mchana na usiku.
11 And thei ouercamen hym for the blood of the lomb, and for the word of his witnessing; and thei louyden not her lyues til to deth.
Walimshinda kwa damu ya Mwanakondoo na kwa neno la ushuhuda wao, kwa maana hawakupenda sana maisha yao, hata kufa.
12 Therfor, ye heuenes, be ye glad, and ye that dwellen in hem. Wo to the erthe, and to the see; for the fend is come doun to you, and hath greet wraththe, witynge that he hath litil tyme.
Kwa hiyo, shangilieni, ninyi mbingu, na wote mnaokaa ndani yake. Lakini ole wa nchi na bahari kwa sababu mwovu ameshuka kwenu. Amejawa na hasira kali, kwa sababu anajua kwamba ana muda mchache tu.
13 And after that the dragoun sai, that he was cast doun to the erthe, he pursuede the womman, that bare the knaue child.
Wakati joka alipotambua kuwa ametupwa chini kwenye nchi, alimfuata mwanamke ambaye alikuwa amezaa mtoto wa kiume.
14 And twei wengis of a greet egle weren youun to the womman, that sche schulde flee in to deseert, in to hir place, where sche is fed by tyme, and tymes, and half a tyme, fro the face of the serpent.
Lakini mwanamke alipewa mabawa mawili ya tai mkubwa, ili kwamba aweze kuruka hadi kwenye eneo lililoandaliwa kwa ajili yake kule jangwani, eneo ambalo angeweza kutunzwa, kwa wakati, nyakati na nusu wakati-mahali asipoweza kupafikia huyo nyoka.
15 And the serpent sente out of his mouth aftir the womman watir as a flood, that he schulde make hir to be drawun of the flood.
Nyoka alimwaga maji kutoka mdomoni mwake kama mto, ili afanye gharika ya kumgharikisha.
16 And the erthe helpide the womman, and the erthe openyde his mouth, and soop up the flood, that the dragoun sente of his mouth.
Lakini ardhi ilimsaidia mwanamke. Ilifunua kinywa chake na kuumeza mto alioutema joka kutoka kinywani mwake.
17 And the dragoun was wrooth ayens the womman, and he wente to make batel with othere of hir seed, that kepen the maundementis of God, and han the witnessing of Jhesu Crist.
Kisha joka akamkasirikia mwanamke naye aliondoka na kufanya vita na uzao wake wote—wale wanaotii amri za Mungu na kushikilia ushuhuda kuhusu Yesu.
