< Nyaɖeɖefia 14 >
1 Kasia mekpɔ Alẽvi la le ŋkunyeme. Enɔ tsitre ɖe Zion to la dzi, eye ame akpe alafa ɖeka blaene-vɔ-ene, ame siwo ƒe ŋgowo nu woŋlɔ eŋkɔ kple Fofoa tɔ ɖo la nɔ tsitre ɖe egbɔ.
And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
2 Mese gbe aɖe tso dziƒo abe tsi geɖewo ƒe hoowɔwɔ alo dzi ƒe gbeɖeɖe ene. Gbe si mese la nɔ abe kasaŋkuƒolawoe nɔ woƒe kasaŋkuwo ƒom ene.
And I heard a voice from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
3 Tete wodzi ha yeye le fiazikpui la ŋgɔ kple nu gbagbe eneawo kpakple amegãxoxoawo ƒe ŋkume. Ame aɖeke mete ŋu srɔ̃ ha la o, negbe ame akpe alafa ɖeka blaene-vɔ-ene, ame siwo woɖe tso anyigba dzi la ko.
And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
4 Ame siawoe nye ame siwo meƒo ɖi wo ɖokuiwo kple nyɔnunya o, elabena wowɔ wo ɖokuiwo kɔkɔe. Wokplɔa Alẽvi la ɖo yia afi sia afi si wòyina la. Woƒle wo tso amegbetɔwo dome, eye wotsɔ wo na Mawu kple Alẽvi la abe nukuwo ƒe gbãtɔwo ene.
These are they which were not defiled with women; for they are virgins. These are they which follow the Lamb anywhere he goes. These were redeemed from among men, being the first-fruits unto God and to the Lamb.
5 Womekpɔ alakpa aɖeke le woƒe nu me o, elabena wonye mokakamanɔŋutɔwo.
And in their mouth was found no guile: for they are without fault before the throne of God.
6 Tete mekpɔ mawudɔla bubu wònɔ dzodzom le yame, eye nyanyui mavɔ la le esi ne wòaɖe gbeƒãe na ame siwo le anyigba dzi, na dukɔ ɖe sia ɖe, to ɖe sia ɖe, gbegbɔgblɔ ɖe sia ɖe kple ƒome ɖe sia ɖe. (aiōnios )
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, (aiōnios )
7 Egblɔ kple gbe gã aɖe be, “Mivɔ̃ Mawu, eye mitsɔ ŋutikɔkɔe nɛ, elabena eƒe ʋɔnudɔdrɔ̃ ƒe gaƒoƒo la va ɖo. Misubɔ eya ame si wɔ dziƒowo, anyigba, atsiaƒu kple tsi dzidziwo.”
Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment has come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
8 Mawudɔla evelia kplɔe ɖo le ɣli dom be, “Womui! Womu Babilonia Gã la, Babilonia si na dukɔwo no eƒe ahasiwɔwɔ ƒe dɔmedzoewain la.”
And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
9 Mawudɔla etɔ̃lia kplɔ wo ɖo le gbɔgblɔm kple gbe gã aɖe be, “Ne ame aɖe asubɔ lã wɔadã la kple eƒe legba, eye wòaxɔ eƒe dzesi ɖe ŋgonu alo eƒe asi ŋuti la,
And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand,
10 eya hã ano Mawu ƒe dɔmedzoe ƒe wain si wokɔ ɖe Mawu ƒe dziku helĩhelĩ ƒe kplu la me wòyɔ banaa la. Woawɔ funyafunyae kple aŋɔdzo le mawudɔla kɔkɔeawo kple Alẽvi la ŋkume,
The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb:
11 eye woƒe fuwɔame ƒe dzudzɔ atu ayi dziƒo tso mavɔ me yi mavɔ me. Dzudzɔ aɖeke meli na ame siwo subɔ lã wɔadã la kple eƒe legba la zã kple keli, alo na ame si xɔ eƒe ŋkɔ ƒe dzesi ɖe eƒe ŋgonu o.” (aiōn )
And the smoke of their torment ascends up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receives the mark of his name. (aiōn )
12 Esia hiã dzigbɔɖi le dzidodo me le ame kɔkɔeawo ƒe akpa dzi, ame siwo wɔa Mawu ƒe sededewo dzi, eye wonɔa nuteƒewɔwɔ dzi na Yesu.
Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
13 Ke mese gbe aɖe tso dziƒo le gbɔgblɔm be, “Ŋlɔ agbalẽ be: Woayra ame siwo ku le Aƒetɔ la me tso azɔ dzi heyina.” “Ɛ̃,” Gbɔgbɔ la le gbɔgblɔm be, “Woadzudzɔ tso woƒe dɔwɔwɔwo me, elabena woƒe nuwɔnawo adze wo yome.”
And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, says the Spirit, (pneuma) that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.
14 Tete mekpɔ lilikpo ɣi aɖe le nye ŋkume, eye ame aɖe si le abe Amegbetɔ Vi la ene la nɔ anyi ɖe lilikpo la dzi. Sikafiakuku le ta nɛ, eye wòlé nuxahɛ gobɛ ɖaɖɛ ɖe asi.
And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
15 Kasia mawudɔla bubu do tso gbedoxɔ la me, eye wòdo ɣli kple gbe sesẽ gblɔ na ame si nɔ anyi ɖe lilikpo la dzi be, “Tsɔ wò nuxahɛ gobɛ la, eye nàxa nu, elabena nuŋeɣi ɖo, eye anyigba ƒe nukuwo ɖi hena xaxa.”
And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in your sickle, and reap: for the time has come for you to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.
16 Ale ame si nɔ lilikpoa dzi la nye eƒe nuxahɛ gobɛ la ɖe anyigba blibo la tame, ale wòxa nukuwo le anyigba la dzi.
And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
17 Mawudɔla bubu do tso gbedoxɔ si le dziƒo la me. Nuxahɛ gobɛ ɖaɖɛ nɔ eya hã ƒe asi me.
And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.
18 Mawudɔla bubu kplɔ eya hã ɖo; eyae nye ame si kpɔa dzo la dzi. Edo tso vɔsamlekpui la me, eye wògblɔ na ame si lé nuxahɛ gobɛ ɖaɖɛ la ɖe asi la kple gbe sesẽ aɖe be, “Tsɔ wò hɛ gobɛ ɖaɖɛ la, eye nàxa wainkpo siwo le anyigba ƒe wainkawo ŋu, elabena eƒe waintsetseawo ɖi.”
And another angel came out from the altar, which had power over fire; and cried with a loud cry to him that had the sharp sickle, saying, Thrust in your sharp sickle, and gather the clusters of the vine of the earth; for her grapes are fully ripe.
19 Mawudɔla la nye eƒe nuxahɛ gobɛ la ɖe anyigba dzi, eye wòxa eƒe wain tsetsewo hetsɔ wo trɔ ɖe Mawu ƒe dɔmedzoe ƒe wainfiaƒe gã la.
And the angel thrust in his sickle into the earth, and gathered the vine of the earth, and cast it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
20 Wonya avuzi le wo dzi le wainfiaƒe la le du la godo; ʋu si do le wainfiaƒe la me le ɖɔɖɔm va se ɖe sɔwo ƒe numegawo ŋuti ke; afi si wòsi ɖo la anɔ abe kilomita alafa etɔ̃ ene.
And the winepress was trodden without the city, and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand and six hundred furlongs.
