Kũguũrĩrio 21
1 Ngĩcooka ngĩona igũrũ rĩerũ na thĩ njerũ, tondũ igũrũ rĩrĩa rĩa mbere na thĩ ĩrĩa ya mbere nĩcieherete igathira, narĩo iria rĩrĩa inene rĩtiarĩ ho.
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no more.
2 Ngĩona Itũũra rĩrĩa Itheru, Jerusalemu ĩrĩa njerũ, rĩgĩikũrũka riumĩte igũrũ kwa Ngai, rĩhaarĩirio ta mũhiki agemeirio mũthuuriwe.
And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 Ningĩ ngĩigua mũgambo mũnene uumĩte gĩtĩ-inĩ-kĩa-ũnene, ũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu gĩikaro kĩa Ngai kĩrĩ hamwe na andũ, nake nĩegũtũũrania nao. Megũtuĩka andũ ake, nake Ngai we Mwene arĩkoragwo hamwe nao, na atuĩke Ngai wao.
And I heard a great voice out of the throne saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall dwell with them, and they shall be his peoples, and God himself shall be with them, [and be] their God:
4 Nake nĩakamagiria maithori mothe mathire maitho-inĩ mao. Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ ĩngĩ gũgaakorwo na gĩkuũ, o na kana gũcakaya, kana kĩrĩro, kana ruo, nĩgũkorwo maũndũ marĩa ma mbere nĩmeherete magathira.”
and he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more; neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more: the first things are passed away.
5 Nake ũrĩa waikarĩire gĩtĩ-kĩa-ũnene akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kwerũhia ndĩrerũhia maũndũ mothe!” Agĩcooka akiuga atĩrĩ, “Andĩka ũndũ ũyũ, nĩgũkorwo ciugo ici nĩ cia kwĩhokwo, na nĩ cia ma.”
And he that sitteth on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he saith, Write: for these words are faithful and true.
6 Agĩcooka akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ: “Maũndũ nĩmahingu. Niĩ nĩ niĩ Alifa o na Omega, Kĩambĩrĩria o na Kĩrĩkĩro. Ũrĩa mũnyootu nĩngamũhe maaĩ anyue kuuma gĩthima kĩa maaĩ ma muoyo, anyue o ũguo tũhũ atekũgũra.
And he said unto me, They are come to pass. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũgũtoorania nĩwe ũkaagaya maũndũ macio mothe, na niĩ nĩngatuĩka Ngai wake, nake atuĩke mũrũ wakwa.
He that overcometh shall inherit these things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
9 Ũmwe wa araika acio mũgwanja arĩa maarĩ na mbakũri mũgwanja iria ciaiyũrĩte mĩthiro ĩrĩa mũgwanja ya kũrigĩrĩria agĩũka, akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka, nĩngũkuonia mũhiki, na nĩwe mũtumia wa Gatũrũme.”
And there came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls, who were laden with the seven last plagues; and he spake with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the bride, the wife of the Lamb.
10 Nake akĩnguua ndĩ thĩinĩ wa Roho, akĩndwara kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩarĩ kĩnene kĩraaya na igũrũ, akĩnyonia Jerusalemu, Itũũra rĩu inene Itheru rĩgĩikũrũka riumĩte igũrũ kwa Ngai.
And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 Itũũra rĩu rĩarĩ na riiri wa Ngai, naguo ũkengi warĩo wahaanaga ta wa kahiga ka goro mũno, o ta kahiga karĩa getagwo njathibi, gakengu o ta gĩcicio.
having the glory of God: her light was like unto a stone most precious, as it were a jasper stone, clear as crystal:
12 Narĩo rĩarĩ na rũthingo rũnene, rũraihu na igũrũ, rwarĩ na ihingo ikũmi na igĩrĩ, na araika ikũmi na eerĩ ihingo-inĩ icio. Nacio ihingo icio nĩciandĩkĩtwo marĩĩtwa ma mĩhĩrĩga ĩrĩa ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ ya ciana cia Isiraeli.
having a wall great and high; having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names written thereon, which are [the names] of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
13 Mwena wa irathĩro warĩ na ihingo ithatũ, na mwena wa gathigathini ihingo ithatũ, na mwena wa gũthini ihingo ithatũ, na mwena wa ithũĩro ihingo ithatũ.
on the east were three gates; and on the north three gates; and on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 Naruo rũthingo rwa itũũra rĩu inene rwarĩ na mĩthingi ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ, na igũrũ rĩayo ĩkaandĩkwo marĩĩtwa ma atũmwo arĩa ikũmi na eerĩ a Gatũrũme.
And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 Nake mũraika ũcio wanjarĩirie aarĩ na rũthanju rwa thahabu rwa gũthima itũũra rĩu inene, o na ihingo ciarĩo, na thingo ciarĩo.
And he that spake with me had for a measure a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 Narĩo itũũra rĩu inene rĩakĩtwo rĩiganaine mĩena yothe, ũraihu warĩo ũkaiganana na wariĩ warĩo. Nĩathimire itũũra rĩu inene na rũthanju rũu, na akĩona atĩ rĩarĩ na ũraihu wa kilomita ta 2,200, ũkaiganana na wariĩ warĩo, na kwambata na igũrũ kwarĩo.
And the city lieth foursquare, and the length thereof is as great as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs: the length and the breadth and the height thereof are equal.
17 Ningĩ agĩthima rũthingo rwarĩo, na ũtungu waruo ũgĩkorwo warĩ mĩkono igana rĩmwe na mĩrongo ĩna na ĩna, rũthimĩtwo na gĩthimi kĩa mũndũ, na no kĩo mũraika aahũthagĩra.
And he measured the wall thereof, a hundred and forty and four cubits, [according to] the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.
18 Rũthingo rũu rwakĩtwo na njathibi, narĩo itũũra rĩu inene rĩakĩĩtwo na thahabu ĩrĩa therie, ĩgathera o ta gĩcicio.
And the building of the wall thereof was jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto pure glass.
19 Nayo mĩthingi ĩyo ya thingo cia itũũra rĩu inene yagemetio na mĩthemba yothe ya mahiga ma goro. Mũthingi wa mbere warĩ wa njathibi, na wa keerĩ warĩ wa yakuti ĩrĩa ya bururu, na wa gatatũ warĩ wa yacimu, na wa kana warĩ wa thumarati,
The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;
20 na wa gatano warĩ wa onigithi, na wa gatandatũ warĩ wa wakiki ũrĩa mũtune, na wa mũgwanja warĩ wa yakuti ĩrĩa ĩhaana thahabu, na wa kanana warĩ wa thabaricandi, na wa kenda warĩ wa yakuti ĩrĩa ĩhaana ngoikoni, na wa ikũmi warĩ wa wakiki ũrĩa ũhaana nyeki nduru, na wa ikũmi na ĩmwe warĩ wa wakiki ũrĩa wa bururu, na wa ikũmi na igĩrĩ warĩ wa amethuthito.
the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
21 Nacio ihingo iria ikũmi na igĩrĩ nĩ ruru ikũmi na igĩrĩ, o kĩhingo gĩathondeketwo na ruru ĩmwe. Nayo njĩra ĩrĩa nene ya itũũra rĩu inene yarĩ ya thahabu therie, yonithanagia mwena ũrĩa ũngĩ ta gĩcicio.
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each one of the several gates was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 Na gũtirĩ hekarũ ndonire kũu itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene, tondũ Mwathani Ngai Mwene-Hinya-Wothe na Gatũrũme nĩo hekarũ yakuo.
And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God the Almighty, and the Lamb, are the temple thereof.
23 Itũũra rĩu inene rĩtibataire nĩ kwarĩrwo nĩ riũa kana mweri, nĩgũkorwo riiri wa Ngai nĩũrĩheaga ũtheri, nake Gatũrũme nĩwe tawa warĩo.
And the city hath no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine upon it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the lamp thereof [is] the Lamb.
24 Nacio ndũrĩrĩ igaathiiaga na ũtheri warĩo, nao athamaki a thĩ marehe riiri wao thĩinĩ warĩo.
And the nations shall walk amidst the light thereof: and the kings of the earth bring their glory into it.
25 Gũtirĩ mũthenya o na ũmwe ihingo ciarĩo ikaahingwo, nĩgũkorwo kũu gũtigakorwo na ũtukũ.
And the gates thereof shall in no wise be shut by day (for there shall be no night there):
26 Na nĩkuo makaarehe riiri na gĩtĩĩo cia ndũrĩrĩ.
and they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it:
27 Gũtirĩ kĩndũ gĩtarĩ gĩtheru gĩgaatoonya itũũra rĩu o narĩ, o na kana mũndũ o wothe ũrĩa wĩkaga maũndũ ma njono kana ma maheeni. O tiga arĩa marĩĩtwa mao mandĩkĩtwo ibuku-inĩ rĩrĩa rĩa Gatũrũme rĩa muoyo.
and there shall in no wise enter into it anything unclean, or he that maketh an abomination and a lie: but only they that are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
