Nyaɖeɖefia 4
1 Le esia megbe la, mekpɔ ʋɔtru aɖe le ʋuʋu le dziƒo le nye ŋkume, eye gbe si mese gbã wònɔ nu ƒom nam abe kpẽ ƒe ɖiɖi ene la gblɔ be, “Va dziƒo afii, eye mafia nu si ava adzɔ le etsɔ me la wò.”
After these things I looked and saw a door opened in heaven, and the first voice that I heard, like a trumpet speaking with me, was one saying, "Come up here, and I will show you the things which must happen after this."
2 Tete menɔ Gbɔgbɔ la me, eye fiazikpui aɖe si le dziƒo la nɔ nye ŋkume, eye ame aɖe nɔ edzi.
Immediately I was in the Spirit; and look, there was a throne set in heaven, and one sitting on the throne.
3 Ame si nɔ fiazikpuia dzi la ƒe dzedzeme le abe kpe xɔasiwo, yaspa kple kanelia ene. Anyieʋɔ si le abe kpe xɔasi emerald ene la ƒo xlã fiazikpui la.
And the one who sat there looked like a jasper stone and a sardius. There was a rainbow around the throne, like an emerald to look at.
4 Fiazikpui sue blaeve-vɔ-ene ƒo xlã fiazikpui gãtɔ la, eye amegãxoxo blaeve-vɔ-ene nɔ wo dzi. Wo katã wodo awu ɣiwo, eye woɖɔ sikafiakukuwo.
Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads.
5 Dzikedzo, dziɖegbe kple sokpewo le dodom tso fiazikpui la me. Akaɖi adre nɔ bibim le fiazikpui la ŋgɔ. Esiawoe nye Mawu ƒe gbɔgbɔ adreawo.
And from the throne came flashes of lightning and sounds and peals of thunder. And there were seven torches of fire burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God.
6 Nane si le abe atsiaƒu ene, esi me kɔ abe kristalokpe ene la hã nɔ fiazikpui la ŋgɔ le afi ma. Nu gbagbe ene nɔ titina ƒo xlã fiazikpui la, eye woƒe ŋkuwo ƒo xlã wo, le ŋgɔ kple megbe siaa.
Before the throne was something like a sea of glass, similar to crystal. In the midst of the throne, and around the throne were four living creatures full of eyes before and behind.
7 Nu gbagbe siawo dometɔ gbãtɔ ɖi dzata. Evelia ɖi nyitsu. Etɔ̃lia ƒe mo ɖi amegbetɔ tɔ, eye enelia le abe hɔ̃ si keke eƒe aʋalawo abe dzodzom wòle ene.
The first living creature was like a lion, and the second living creature like a calf, and the third living creature had a face like a man, and the fourth living creature was like a flying eagle.
8 Aʋala ade nɔ nu gbagbe eneawo dometɔ ɖe sia ɖe si, woto ŋku ɖe aʋalawo ŋu kpe ɖo, eye woto ŋku ɖe woƒe aʋalawo te gɔ̃ hã. Wonɔ ha dzim madzudzɔmadzudzɔe zã kple keli be,
The four living creatures, each one of them having six wings, are full of eyes around and within. They have no rest day and night, saying, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come."
9 Ne nu gbagbeawo le ŋutikɔkɔe, bubu kple akpedada tsɔm na ame si nɔ fiazikpui la dzi, eye wòle agbe tegbetegbe la, (aiōn g165)
And when the living creatures give glory and honor and thanks to him who sits on the throne, to him who lives forever and ever, (aiōn g165)
10 ekema amegãxoxo blaeve-vɔ-eneawo yia klo dzi hetsyɔa mo anyi ɖe eya ame si nɔ anyi ɖe fiazikpui la dzi la ŋgɔ, eye wosubɔa eya ame si le agbe tegbetegbe la. Woɖea woƒe fiakukuwo dana ɖe fiazikpui la ŋgɔ henɔa ha dzim be, (aiōn g165)
the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying, (aiōn g165)
11 “Míaƒe Aƒetɔ kple Mawu, wòe dze be nàxɔ ŋutikɔkɔe, bubu kple ŋusẽ, elabena wòe wɔ nuwo katã; wò lɔlɔ̃nue nètsɔ wɔ woe, eye wò lɔlɔ̃nue na be wole agbe.”
"Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive the glory, the honor, and the power, for you created all things, and because of your desire they existed, and were created."
