< Kũguũrĩrio 12 >
1 Ningĩ kũu igũrũ gũkĩoneka ũrirũ mũnene wa kũgegania: gũkĩoneka mũndũ-wa-nja wehumbĩte riũa, agacooka agakinya mweri na magũrũ, na agekĩra thũmbĩ ya njata ikũmi na igĩrĩ mũtwe.
AND a great sign was seen in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon beneath her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.
2 Aarĩ na nda, na nĩakayaga nĩ ruo tondũ aarĩ hakuhĩ kũheo mwana.
And having in her womb, she cried, and was in travail, and was pained to give birth.
3 Ningĩ gũkĩoneka ũrirũ ũngĩ kũu igũrũ na atĩrĩ: nĩ ndamathia nene yarĩ ndune, na yarĩ na ciongo mũgwanja, na hĩa ikũmi, na thũmbĩ mũgwanja ciongo-inĩ ciayo.
And I saw another sign in heaven; and behold a great dragon of fire, which had seven heads and ten horns, and upon his heads seven diadems.
4 Naguo mũtingʼoe wayo ũkĩhaata gĩcunjĩ gĩa ithatũ kĩa njata cia igũrũ na ĩgĩcirekania thĩ. Ndamathia ĩyo ĩkĩrũgama mbere ya mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio warĩ hakuhĩ kũheo mwana, nĩguo ĩtambuure mwana ũcio aaciarwo o ũguo.
And his tail drew the third of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman when she was about to give birth, that when she had given birth he might devour her son.
5 Nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩgĩa mwana wa kahĩĩ, ũrĩa ũgaathaga ndũrĩrĩ ciothe na rũthanju rwa kĩgera. Nake mwana ũcio akĩhurio, agĩtwarwo igũrũ gĩtĩ-inĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Ngai.
And she gave birth to a male child, who is to rule all nations with a rod of iron; and her son was rapt unto Aloha and unto his throne.
6 Mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩũrĩra werũ-inĩ, handũ harĩa aathondekeirwo nĩ Ngai, harĩa aarĩ amenyererwo handũ ha ihinda rĩa matukũ 1,260.
And the woman fled into the desert, where she had a place prepared of Aloha, that there they might nourish her, DAYS A THOUSAND AND TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY.
7 Na rĩrĩ, kũu igũrũ gũkĩgĩa mbaara. Mikaeli na araika ake makĩrũa na ndamathia ĩyo, nayo ndamathia na araika ayo makĩrũa nao.
And there was war in heaven. And Mikoel and his angels to fight with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels warred.
8 No ndamathia ndĩarĩ na hinya wa kũigana, nayo hamwe na araika ayo makĩaga ũikaro kũu igũrũ.
And they could not prevail, and their place was found no more in heaven.
9 Nayo ndamathia ĩyo nene ĩkĩnyugutwo thĩ, na nĩyo nyoka ĩrĩa ya tene, o ĩrĩa ĩĩtagwo mũcukani, na ĩgeetwo Shaitani, ĩrĩa ĩhĩtithagia andũ a thĩ yothe. Nayo ĩkĩnyugutwo thĩ hamwe na araika ayo.
And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, who is called the Deceiver, and the Adversary, which seduceth the whole habitable world. And he was cast upon the earth, and his angels with him were cast.
10 Ningĩ ngĩcooka ngĩigua mũgambo mũnene kũu igũrũ, ũkiuga atĩrĩ: “Rĩu ũhonokio nĩ mũkinyu, na ũhoti, na ũthamaki wa Ngai witũ, o na wathani wa Kristũ wake. Nĩgũkorwo ũrĩa ũcuukaga ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ũrĩa ũmacuukaga mbere ya Ngai mũthenya na ũtukũ, nĩaharũrũkĩtio thĩ.
And I heard a great voice in heaven saying, Now is there salvation and strength, And the kingdom of our God, And the power of his Meshiha; Because the accuser of our brethren is cast down, Who accused them before Aloha day and night.
11 Nao nĩmamũtooririe na ũndũ wa thakame ya Gatũrũme, o na nĩ ũndũ wa kiugo kĩa ũira wao; na matiigana kwenda kũhonokia mĩoyo yao, o na maatuĩka a gũkua.
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, And by the word of his testimony. But they loved not their lives unto death.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, kenai inyuĩ igũrũ, o na inyuĩ arĩa mũtũũraga kuo! No kaĩ thĩ na iria rĩrĩa inene irĩ na haaro-ĩ, tondũ mũcukani nĩaikũrũkĩte kũrĩ inyuĩ! Nake aiyũrĩtwo nĩ marũrũ manene, tondũ nĩoĩ atĩ ihinda rĩake rĩrĩa rĩtigaire nĩ inyinyi.”
Wherefore let the heavens be glad, And those who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea! Because the deceiver hath gone down to you, Having great indignation, Knowing that little time is to him.
13 Rĩrĩa ndamathia ĩyo yoonire atĩ nĩyanyugutwo thĩ, ikĩambĩrĩria kũnyariira mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio waagĩĩte mwana wa kahĩĩ.
And when the dragon saw that he was cast down upon the earth, he pursued the woman which gave birth to the son.
14 Nake mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio akĩheo mathagu meerĩ ma nderi ĩrĩa nene nĩgeetha ombũke athiĩ werũ-inĩ handũ harĩa aathondekeirwo, harĩa aarĩ amenyererwo kwa ihinda, na kwa mahinda na nuthu ya ihinda, harĩa atangĩakinyĩrirwo nĩ nyoka ĩyo.
And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the desert unto her place, where she was to be nourished A TIME, AND TIMES, AND THE DIVIDING OF A TIME, from the face of the serpent.
15 Nayo nyoka ĩyo ĩkĩhorora maaĩ kuuma kanua kayo o ta rũũĩ, nĩgeetha ĩkinyĩrie mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio, ĩtũme atwarwo nĩ kĩguũ kĩu.
And the serpent cast forth from his mouth after the woman waters like a river, as that she might be carried off by the river which he would make.
16 No thĩ nayo ĩgĩteithĩrĩria mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio na ũndũ wa gwathamia kanua kayo, nayo ĩkĩmeria rũũĩ rũu rwahororetwo nĩ ndamathia ĩyo kuuma kanua kayo.
And the earth succoured the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed the river which the dragon had cast forth from his mouth.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩyo ndamathia ĩyo ĩkĩrakarĩra mũndũ-wa-nja ũcio mũno, nayo ĩgĩthiĩ kũrũa na ciana iria ingĩ ciake, na nĩo andũ arĩa maathĩkagĩra maathani ma Ngai, na makagwatĩria ũira wa Jesũ.
And the dragon raged against the woman, and went to make war with those of the rest of her seed which kept the commandments of Aloha, and had the testimony of Jeshu.
