And oon of the seuene aungels cam, that hadde seuene viols, and spak with me, and seide, Come thou, Y schal schewe to thee the dampnacioun of the greet hoore, that sittith on many watris, with which kyngis of erthe diden fornicacioun;
2 Anyigbadzifiawo wɔ ahasi kplii, eye anyigbadzitɔwo no eƒe ahasiwɔwɔ ƒe wain mu.”
and thei that dwellen in the erthe ben maad drunkun of the wyn of her letcherie.
3 Tete mawudɔla la kɔm le gbɔgbɔ me yi gbedzi. Afi ma mekpɔ nyɔnu aɖe si nɔ anyi ɖe lã dzĩ aɖe dzi, esi ŋu busuŋkɔwo le la. Lã la to ta adre kple dzo ewo.
And he took me in to desert in spirit. And Y say a womman sittynge on a reed beeste, ful of names of blasfemye, hauynge seuene heedis, and ten hornes.
4 Nyɔnu la do awu legbe si wotɔ kple avɔ blɔ kple avɔ dzĩ, eye wòde sikakɔga keklẽwo, kpe xɔasi dzonuwo kple dzonu bubuwo kɔ. Sikakplu si yɔ fũu kple ŋunyɔnuwo kple eƒe ahasiwɔwɔ ƒe ŋunyɔnu la le esi.
And the womman was enuyround with purpur, and reed, and ouergild with gold, and preciouse stoon, and peerls, hauynge a goldun cuppe in hir hoond, ful of abhomynaciouns and vnclennesse of her fornycacioun.
5 Woŋlɔ ŋkɔ si nye nya ɣaɣla la ɖe eƒe ŋgonu be: Babilonia gã la, gbolowo kple anyigbadziŋunyɔnuwo dada.
And a name writun in the forheed of hir, Mysterie, Babiloyn the greet, modir of fornycaciouns, and of abhomynaciouns of erthe.
6 Mekpɔ be nyɔnu la mu ame kɔkɔewo kple ame siwo ɖi ɖase le Yesu ŋuti la ƒe ʋu. Esi mekpɔe la, nye mo wɔ yaa.
And Y say a womman drunkun of the blood of seyntis, and of the blood of martris of Jhesu. And whanne Y say hir, Y wondride with greet wondryng.
7 Tete mawudɔla la biam be, “Nu ka ta wò mo wɔ yaa ɖo? Maɖe nyɔnu la kple lã si dom wòle, lã si to ta adre kple dzo ewo la ƒe nu ɣaɣla me na wò.
And the aungel seide to me, Whi wondrist thou? I schal seie to thee the sacrament yf the womman, and of the beeste that berith hir, that hath seuene heedis and ten hornes.
8 Lã si nèkpɔ la nɔ anyi tsã, gake megali fifia o, eye ado tso ʋe globo la me ayi eƒe tsɔtsrɔ̃ la me. Anyigbadzitɔ siwo ƒe ŋkɔwo womeŋlɔ ɖe agbegbalẽ la me tso xexea me ƒe gɔmedzedzea me o la ƒe mo awɔ yaa ne wokpɔ lã la, elabena enɔ anyi tsã, ke megali fifia o, gake agatrɔ ava. (Abyssos g12)
The beeste which thou seist, was, and is not; and sche schal stie fro depnesse, and sche schal go `in to perisching. And men dwellinge in erthe schulen wondre, whos names ben not writun in the book of lijf fro the makinge of the world, seynge the beeste, that was, and is not. (Abyssos g12)
9 “Nya sia hiã na susu si me nunya le. Ta adreawo nye togbɛ adre siwo dzi nyɔnu la nɔ anyi ɖo la. Woganye fia adrewo hã.
And this is the witt, who that hath wisdom. The seuene heedis ben seuene hillis, on whiche the womman sittith, and kyngis seuene ben.
10 Wo ame atɔ̃ dze anyi, ɖeka li fifia, eye ɖeka mekpɔ va haɖe o. Ke ne eva la, anɔ anyi hena ɣeyiɣi kpui aɖe ko.
Fyue han feld doun, oon is, and anothir cometh not yit. And whanne he schal come, it bihoueth hym to dwelle a schort tyme.
11 Lã si nɔ anyi kpɔ, eye megali fifia o lae nye fia enyilia. Enye fia adreawo dometɔ ɖeka, eye wòyina ɖe eƒe tsɔtsrɔ̃ la me.
And the beeste that was, and is not, and sche is the eiytthe, and is of the seuene, and schal go in to perischyng.
12 “Dzo ewo siwo nèkpɔ la nye fia ewo siwo si fiaɖuƒe mesu haɖe o la, gake woana dziɖuɖuŋusẽ wo abe fiawo ene, kpe ɖe lã la ŋu hena gaƒoƒo ɖeka.
And the ten hornes whiche thou hast seyn, ben ten kyngis, that yit han not take kyngdom; but thei schulen take power as kingis, oon our after the beeste.
13 Taɖodzinu ɖeka le wo si, eye woatsɔ woƒe ŋusẽ kple dziɖuɖuŋusẽ ana lã la.
These han a counsel, and schulen bitake her vertu and power to the beeste.
14 Woawɔ aʋa kple Alẽvi la, gake Alẽvi la aɖu wo dzi, elabena eyae nye aƒetɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ kple fiawo ƒe Fia la, eye eƒe ame tiatiawo, ame siwo wòyɔ kple ame siwo dze eyome le anukware me la anɔ egbɔ.”
These schulen fiyte with the lomb, and the lomb schal ouercome hem; for he is Lord of lordis, and kyng of kyngis; and thei that ben with hym, ben clepid, chosun, and feithful.
15 Mawudɔla la yi edzi gblɔ nam be, “Tsi siwo nèkpɔ, esiwo dzi gbolo la nɔ anyi ɖo la nye amewo, amehawo, dukɔwo kple gbegbɔgblɔwo.
And he seide to me, The watris whiche thou hast seyn, where the hoore sittith, ben puplis, and folkis, and langagis.
16 Lã la kple eƒe dzo ewo siwo nèkpɔ la alé fu gbolo la, woahee va gbegblẽ me, eye woagblẽe ɖi amamae; woaɖu eƒe lã, eye woatɔ dzoe,
And the ten hornes that thou hast seyn in the beeste, these schulen make hir desolat and nakid, and schulen ete the fleischis of hir, and schulen brenne togidere hir with fier.
17 elabena Mawu tsɔe de woƒe dzi me be woana eƒe tameɖoɖo nava eme ne woalɔ̃ atsɔ woƒe ŋusẽ ana lã la ne wòatsɔ aɖu dzii va se ɖe esime Mawu ƒe nyawo nava eme.
For God yaf in to the hertis of hem, that thei do that that is pleasaunt to hym, that thei yyue her kyngdom to the beeste, til the wordis of God ben endid.
18 Nyɔnu si nèkpɔ la, eyae nye du gã si le anyigbadzifiawo dzi ɖum.”
And the womman whom thou hast seyn, is the greet citee, that hath kingdom on kyngis of the erthe.
