John, to the seven congregations in Asia: Grace to you and peace from God, who is and who was and who is coming, and from the seven Spirits that are before his throne,

7 “Lee, ọ na-abịa ya na igwe ojii. Anya niile ga-ahụkwa ya, ọ bụladị ndị ahụ niile mapuru ya ahụ, ha ga-ahụ ya.” Mmadụ niile nọ nʼụwa “ga-erukwa ụjụ nʼihi ya.”
Behold, he comes with the clouds and every eye will see him, even the men who pierced him. And all the tribes of the earth will wail against him. Yea, Truly.

I John, your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and perseverance in Christ Jesus, happened to be on the isle that is called Patmos because of the word of God, and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ.
10 Nʼụbọchị Onyenwe anyị, anọ m nʼime Mmụọ ma nụ otu oke olu dara ụda dị ka opi ike nʼazụ m,
I became in spirit on the Lord's day and I heard behind me a great voice like a trumpet
11 na-ekwu, “Dee ihe ị na-ahụ ugbu a nʼakwụkwọ zigara ya nzukọ asaa dị nʼEfesọs na Smyrna na Pegamọm na Tiatira na Sardis, na Filadelfia na Laodisia.”
saying, What thou see, write in a book and send to the seven congregations: to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamos, and to Thyatira, and to Sardis, and to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.
12 Mgbe m chigharịrị, lee anya ịhụ onye na-agwa m okwu, ahụrụ m ihe ịdọba oriọna asaa e ji ọlaedo kpụọ.
And I turned there to see the voice that spoke with me. And having turned I saw seven golden lampstands.
13 Nʼetiti ihe ịdọba oriọna ndị a, ahụrụ m otu onye yiri nwa nke mmadụ, ka o guzo. O yikwasịrị onwe ya uwe mwụda. Ma o nwere ihe okike na-acha ọlaedo e ji kee gburugburu obi ya.
And in the midst of the seven lampstands, resembling a son of man, he who was clothed down to the foot, and girded about with a golden belt at the breasts.
14 Isi ya na agịrị isi ya na-acha vaa dịka ogho ọcha, dịka akụmmiri igwe. Anya ya abụọ yiri ire ọkụ na-enwusi ike.
And his head and hair were white as wool, white as snow, and his eyes as a flame of fire,
15 Ụkwụ ya abụọ dị ka bronz a nụchasịrị nnọọ nke ọma hichapụkwa ya. Olu okwu ya na-ada dị ka ụzụ mmiri na-achị achị.
and his feet resembling highly refined metal, as in a furnace having been fiery hot, and his voice as the sound of many waters,
16 O jidere kpakpando asaa nʼaka nri ya, mma agha dị nkọ nwere ihu abụọ sikwa nʼọnụ ya na-apụta. Ihu ya na-egbu maramara dịka anyanwụ na-acha nʼike ya niile.
and having in his right hand seven stars, and a sharp two-edged sword coming out of his mouth. And the sight of him was as the sun shines in its strength.
17 Mgbe m hụrụ ya, adara m nʼala nʼụkwụ ya dịka onye nwụrụ anwụ. Ma o weere aka nri ya metụ m nʼahụ na-ekwu sị, “Atụla egwu. Abụ m Mmalite na Ọgwụgwụ.
And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying, Fear not, I am the first and the last,
18 Abụ m onye ahụ na-adị ndụ. Anwụrụ m anwụ, ma lee, ana m adị ndụ ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi. Ọ bụkwa m ji ọtụghe igodo nke ọnwụ na nke ọkụ ala mmụọ. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
and he who lives. And I became dead, and behold, I am living into the ages of the ages. Truly. And I have the keys of death and of Hades. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
19 “Ya mere, detuo ihe niile ị hụrụla, ihe dị ugbu a na ihe gaje ime na mgbe na adịghị anya.
Therefore write the things that thou saw, and things that are, and things that are going to happen after these things.
20 Nke a bụ ihe omimi nke kpakpando asaa ahụ ị hụrụ nʼaka nri m, na ihe ịdọba oriọna asaa ndị ahụ pụtara. Kpakpando asaa ahụ bụ ndị mmụọ ozi ụlọ nzukọ asaa ahụ. Osisi oriọna asaa ahụ bụ ụlọ nzukọ ndị ahụ nʼonwe ha.
The mystery of the seven stars that thou saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands: the seven stars are agents of the seven congregations, and the seven lampstands that thou saw are the seven congregations.
