Nyaɖeɖefia 10

1 Tete mekpɔ mawudɔla triakɔ bubu wòtso dziƒo gbɔna. Lilikpo nye awu ʋlaya wòdo, eye anyieʋɔ le eƒe ta dzi, eƒe mo le abe ɣe ene, eye eƒe afɔwo le abe dzosɔtiwo ene.

And I saw another mighty angel coming down out of the heaven, encircled with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was like the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire:

2 Elé agbalẽ sue aɖe ɖe asi, esi le ʋuʋu le eƒe asiƒome. Etsɔ eƒe ɖusifɔ da ɖe atsiaƒu me, tsɔ eƒe miafɔ da ɖe anyigba dzi,

and having in his hand a little open book. And he placed his right foot upon the sea, and his left upon the earth,

3 eye wòdo ɣli sesẽ aɖe abe dzata ƒe gbeɖeɖe ene. Esi wòdo ɣlia la, dziɖegbe adreawo ƒe gbe ɖi.

and he cried with a loud voice, as a lion roars. And when he cried the seven thunders uttered their voices.

4 Esi dziɖegbe adreawo ƒo nu la, menɔ klalo be maŋlɔ nu, gake mese gbe aɖe tso dziƒo gblɔ nam be, “Tre nu si dziɖegbe adreawo gblɔ la nu, eye mègaŋlɔe da ɖi o.”

And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write: and I heard a voice speaking from the heaven, Seal those things which the seven thunders spoke, and write them not.

5 Ke mawudɔla si mekpɔ wònɔ tsitre ɖe atsiaƒu me kple anyigba dzi la do eƒe ɖusibɔ ɖe dziƒo,

And the angel, which I saw standing upon the sea and upon the land lifted up his right hand to the heaven,

6 eye wòyɔ eya ame si nɔ agbe tegbetegbe, ame si wɔ dziƒowo kple nu siwo katã le wo me, anyigba kple nu siwo le edzi kple atsiaƒu kple nu siwo katã le eme la ƒe ŋkɔ heka atam be, “Heheɖemegbe aɖeke maganɔ anyi o! (aiōn g165)

and he swore by him that liveth unto the ages of the ages, who created the heaven, and the things in it, and the earth, and the things in it, and the sea, and the things in it, that there shall be time no longer: (aiōn g165)

7 Gake le ŋkeke siwo me mawudɔla adrelia aku eƒe kpẽa la, Mawu ƒe nu ɣaɣla la ava eme abe ale si wòɖe gbeƒã na eƒe dɔla nyagblɔɖilawoe ene.”

but in the day of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound, and the mystery of God may be finished, when he has preached the gospel to his servants the prophets.

8 Esi gbe si mese tso dziƒo gaƒo nu nam la, egblɔ nam be, “Heyi nàxɔ agbalẽ si le ʋuʋu le mawudɔla si le tsitre ɖe atsiaƒu me kple anyigba dzi la ƒe asi me.”

And the voice which I heard from the heaven again speaking with me, and saying, Go, take the little book which is open in the hands of the angel who stands upon the sea and upon the land.

9 Ale meyi ɖe mawudɔla la gbɔ, eye mebiae be wòatsɔ agbalẽ sue la nam. Egblɔ nam be, “Xɔe, eye nàɖui. Atrɔ azu nu veve le wò dɔ me, gake le wò nu me ya la, avivi abe anyitsi ene.”

And I went away to the angel, saying to him, to give me the little book. He says to me, Take it, and eat it up; and it will make your stomach bitter, but in your mouth it will be sweet as honey.

10 Mexɔ agbalẽ sue la le mawudɔla la si, eye meɖui. Evivi le nye nu me abe anyitsi ene, ke esi meɖui vɔ la, etrɔ zu nu veve le nye dɔ me.

And I took the little book out of the hand of the angel, and I ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and when I ate it, my stomach was bitter.

11 Eyi edzi gblɔ nam be, “Ele na wò be nàgagblɔ nya ɖi tso ame geɖewo, dukɔwo, gbegbɔgblɔwo kple fiawo ŋuti.”

And they say to me, It behooves you again to prophesy before the many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.
