Αποκαλυψις Ιωαννου 5
1 Καὶ εἶδον ἐπὶ τὴν δεξιὰν τοῦ καθημένου ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου βιβλίον γεγραμμένον ἔσωθεν καὶ ὄπισθεν, κατεσφραγισμένον σφραγῖσιν ἑπτά.
Kisha nikaona katika mkono wa kulia wa yule aliyekuwa amekaa katika kiti cha enzi, gombo lililoandikwa mbele na nyuma, na lilikuwa limetiwa mihuri saba.
2 καὶ εἶδον ἄγγελον ἰσχυρὸν κηρύσσοντα ἐν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ, τίς ἄξιος ἀνοῖξαι τὸ βιβλίον καὶ λῦσαι τὰς σφραγῖδας αὐτοῦ;
Nilimwona malaika mwenye nguvu akihubiri kwa sauti kubwa, “Nani astahiliye kulifungua gombo na kuzivunja mihuri yake?”
3 καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐδύνατο ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ οὔτε ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς οὔτε ὑποκάτω τῆς γῆς ἀνοῖξαι τὸ βιβλίον οὔτε βλέπειν αὐτό.
Hakuna mtu mbinguni au duniani au chini ya dunia aliyeweza kulifungua gombo au kulisoma.
4 καὶ ἔκλαιον πολὺ ὅτι οὐδεὶς ἄξιος εὑρέθη ἀνοῖξαι τὸ βιβλίον οὔτε βλέπειν αὐτό.
Nililia kwa uchungu kwa kuwa hakupatikana yeyote aliyestahili kulifungua gombo au kulisoma.
5 καὶ εἷς ἐκ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων λέγει μοι, μὴ κλαῖε· ἰδοὺ ἐνίκησεν ὁ λέων ὁ ἐκ τῆς φυλῆς Ἰούδα, ἡ ῥίζα Δαυείδ, ἀνοῖξαι τὸ βιβλίον καὶ τὰς ἑπτὰ σφραγῖδας αὐτοῦ.
Lakini mmoja wa wazee akaniambia, “Usilie. Tazama! Simba wa kabila ya Yuda, shina la Daudi, ameshinda, na anaweza kulifungua gombo na mihuri yake saba.”
6 Καὶ εἶδον ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ τῶν τεσσάρων ζώων καὶ ἐν μέσῳ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων ἀρνίον ἑστηκὼς ὡς ἐσφαγμένον, ἔχων κέρατα ἑπτὰ καὶ ὀφθαλμοὺς ἑπτά, οἵ εἰσιν τὰ ἑπτὰ πνεύματα τοῦ θεοῦ ἀπεσταλμένα εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν.
Kati ya kiti cha enzi na wenye uhai wanne na miongoni mwa wazee, niliona mwanakondoo amesimama, akionekana kama aliye uawa. Alikuwa na pembe saba na macho saba - hizi ni roho saba za Mungu zilizotumwa duniani kote.
7 καὶ ἦλθεν καὶ εἴληφεν ἐκ τῆς δεξιᾶς τοῦ καθημένου ἐπὶ τοῦ θρόνου.
Akaenda akalichukua gombo kutoka katika mkono wa kuume wa yule aliye kaa katika kiti cha enzi.
8 καὶ ὅτε ἔλαβεν τὸ βιβλίον, τὰ τέσσερα ζῷα καὶ οἱ εἴκοσι τέσσαρες πρεσβύτεροι ἔπεσαν ἐνώπιον τοῦ ἀρνίου, ἔχοντες ἕκαστος κιθάραν καὶ φιάλας χρυσᾶς γεμούσας θυμιαμάτων, αἵ εἰσιν αἱ προσευχαὶ τῶν ἁγίων.
Alipolichukua gombo, wenye uhai wanne na wazee ishirini na wanne wakainama hadi nchi mbele ya mwanakondoo. Kila mmoja alikuwa na kinubi na bakuli ya dhahabu iliyojaa uvumba ambayo ni maombi ya waamini.
9 καὶ ᾄδουσιν ᾠδὴν καινὴν λέγοντες, ἄξιος εἶ λαβεῖν τὸ βιβλίον καὶ ἀνοῖξαι τὰς σφραγῖδας αὐτοῦ, ὅτι ἐσφάγης καὶ ἠγόρασας τῷ θεῷ ἐν τῷ αἵματί σου ἐκ πάσης φυλῆς καὶ γλώσσης καὶ λαοῦ καὶ ἔθνους,
Waliimba wimbo mpya: “Unastahili kulitwaa gombo na kuzifungua muhuri zake. Kwa kuwa ulichinjwa, na kwa damu yako ukamnunulia Mungu watu wa kila kabila, lugha, jamaa na taifa.
10 καὶ ἐποίησας αὐτοὺς τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν βασιλείαν καὶ ἱερεῖς, καὶ βασιλεύσουσιν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς.
Ukawafanya ufalme na makuhani kwa ajili ya kumtumikia Mungu wetu, nao watatawala juu ya nchi.”
11 καὶ εἶδον, καὶ ἤκουσα ὡς φωνὴν ἀγγέλων πολλῶν κύκλῳ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ τῶν ζώων καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων, καὶ ἦν ὁ ἀριθμὸς αὐτῶν μυριάδες μυριάδων καὶ χιλιάδες χιλιάδων,
Kisha nilitazama na nikasikia sauti ya malaika wengi kuzunguka kiti cha enzi - idadi yao ilikuwa 200, 000, 000 na wenye uhai na wazee.
12 λέγοντες φωνῇ μεγάλῃ, ἄξιός ἐστιν τὸ ἀρνίον τὸ ἐσφαγμένον λαβεῖν τὴν δύναμιν καὶ πλοῦτον καὶ σοφίαν καὶ ἰσχὺν καὶ τιμὴν καὶ δόξαν καὶ εὐλογίαν.
Wakasema kwa sauti kuu, “Astahili mwanakondoo ambaye amechinjwa kupokea uwezo, utajiri, hekima, nguvu, heshima, utukufu, na sifa.”
13 καὶ πᾶν κτίσμα ὃ ἐν τῷ οὐρανῷ καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς καὶ ὑποκάτω τῆς γῆς καὶ ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης, καὶ τὰ ἐν αὐτοῖς πάντα καὶ ἤκουσα λέγοντας, τῷ καθημένῳ ἐπὶ τῷ θρόνῳ καὶ τῷ ἀρνίῳ ἡ εὐλογία καὶ ἡ τιμὴ καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ τὸ κράτος εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων. (aiōn g165)
Nikasikia kila kilichoumbwa kilichokuwa mbinguni na duniani na chini ya nchi na juu ya bahari, kila kitu ndani yake kikisema, “Kwake yeye aketiye juu ya kiti cha enzi na kwa mwanakondoo, kuwe sifa, heshima, utukufu na nguvu ya kutawala milele na milele.” (aiōn g165)
14 καὶ τὰ τέσσερα ζῷα ἔλεγον, ἀμήν· καὶ οἱ πρεσβύτεροι ἔπεσαν καὶ προσεκύνησαν.
Wenye uhai wanne wakasema, “Amina!” na wazee wakainama chini na kuabudu.
