< Kũguũrĩrio 7 >
1 Thuutha wa ũguo ngĩona araika ana marũgamĩte ituri-inĩ iria inya cia thĩ, marigĩrĩirie huho iria inya cia thĩ nĩgeetha rũhuho o ruothe rũtikahurutane gũkũ thĩ, kana iria-inĩ rĩrĩa inene, o na kana mũtĩ-inĩ o wothe.
And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2 Ngĩcooka ngĩona mũraika ũngĩ akĩambata oimĩte mwena wa irathĩro, arĩ na mũhũri wa Ngai ũrĩa ũrĩ muoyo. Nake agĩĩta araika acio ana na mũgambo mũnene, acio maaheetwo ũhoti mathũkie thĩ na iria rĩrĩa inene, akĩmeera atĩrĩ:
And I saw another angel ascending from the east, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3 “Mũtigathũkie thĩ, kana iria, o na kana mĩtĩ, nginya tũkorwo tũrĩkĩtie gwĩkĩra ndungata cia Ngai witũ rũũri ithiithi-inĩ ciao.”
Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads.
4 Ningĩ ngĩigua mũigana wa arĩa meekĩrirwo rũũri, nao maarĩ: 144,000 kuuma mĩhĩrĩga yothe ya Isiraeli.
And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed an hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel.
5 A mũhĩrĩga wa Juda arĩa meekĩrirwo rũũri maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Rubeni maarĩ 12,000, na a mũhĩrĩga wa Gadi maarĩ 12,000,

9 Thuutha wa maũndũ macio ngĩcooka ngĩrora, na hau mbere yakwa-rĩ, ngĩona kĩrĩndĩ kĩnene gĩtangĩtarĩka nĩ mũndũ, kĩa andũ moimĩte ndũrĩrĩ-inĩ ciothe, na maarĩ a mĩhĩrĩga yothe, na iruka ciothe, na thiomi ciothe, marũgamĩte mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, na mbere ya Gatũrũme. Nao meehumbĩte nguo ndaaya cia rangi mwerũ, na makanyiita makĩndũ na moko.
After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and families, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
10 Nao maanagĩrĩra na mũgambo mũnene makoiga atĩrĩ: “Kũhonokania nĩ kwa Ngai witũ, ũrĩa ũikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, na gwa Gatũrũme.”
And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sits upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 Nao araika acio othe maarũgamĩte mathiũrũrũkĩirie gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene, na magathiũrũrũkĩria athuuri acio na ciũmbe icio inya irĩ muoyo. Nao magĩturumithia mothiũ mao thĩ hau mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, makĩhooya Ngai,
And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Makiugaga atĩrĩ: “Ameni! Ũgooci, na riiri, na ũũgĩ, na ngaatho, na gĩtĩĩo na ũhoti, na hinya, irotũũra na Ngai witũ tene na tene. Ameni!” (aiōn )
Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
13 Na rĩrĩ, ũmwe wa athuuri acio akĩnjũũria atĩrĩ, “Andũ aya mehumbĩte nguo ndaaya cia rangi mwerũ nĩ a, na moimĩte kũ?”
And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14 Na niĩ ngĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Mũthuuri ũyũ, nĩwe ũũĩ.” Nake akĩnjĩĩra atĩrĩ, “Aya nĩ arĩa moimĩte mĩnyamaro-inĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene; nao nĩmathambĩtie nguo ciao na magacierũhia na thakame ya Gatũrũme.
And I said unto him, Sir, you know. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, “rĩu maikaraga mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kĩa Ngai, na mamũtungatagĩra mũthenya na ũtukũ thĩinĩ wa hekarũ yake; nake ũrĩa ũikaragĩra gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene egũtũũra atambũrũkĩtie hema yake igũrũ rĩao.
Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sits on the throne shall dwell among them.
16 Gũtirĩ hĩndĩ magaacooka kũhũũta; na matigacooka kũnyoota. Matigacinwo rĩngĩ nĩ riũa, o na kana nĩ ũrugarĩ mũhiũ o na ũrĩkũ.
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 Nĩgũkorwo Gatũrũme ũrĩa ũrĩ gatagatĩ ga gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene nĩwe ũgaatuĩka mũrĩithi wao; nĩakamatongoria, amakinyie ithima-inĩ cia maaĩ ma muoyo. Nake Ngai nĩakamagiria maithori mothe mathire maitho-inĩ mao.”
For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
