The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto Him, to shew to his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and He sent and signified it by his angel to his servant John,
2 onye a gbara ama banyere ihe niile ọ hụrụ, okwu Chineke, na ọgbụgba ama Jisọs Kraịst.
who bare witness to the word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ, and to whatever He saw.
3 Ngọzị na-adịrị onye ahụ na-agụpụta okwu ndị a dị nʼamụma a. Ngọzị na-adịkwara ndị na-anụ ya, ma nabata ihe e dere nʼime ya nʼobi ha. Nʼihi na oge mmezu ha dị nso.
Happy is he that readeth, and those that hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written therein: for the time is near.
4 Ọ bụ m Jọn na-ede akwụkwọ a, Na-edere ya nzukọ asaa dị na mpaghara Eshịa: Ka amara na udo nke sitere na Onye ahụ na-adị, Onye ahụ dịkwaarị, na Onye ahụ na-aga ịbịa dịrị unu, sitekwa nʼebe Mmụọ asaa ahụ na-eguzo nʼihu ocheeze ya,
John to the seven churches in Asia---Grace and peace be to you, from Him who is, and who was, and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
5 sitekwa nʼaka Jisọs Kraịst, onye bụ onyeama kwesiri ntụkwasị obi, na onye mbụ sitere na ndị nwụrụ anwụ bilie, nakwa onye na-achị ndị eze niile nke ụwa. Nye onye ahụ hụrụ anyị nʼanya ma meekwa ka anyị site nʼọbara ya nwere onwe anyị pụọ na mmehie.
and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first-born from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
6 O mere ka anyị bụrụ alaeze, ndị nchụaja nye Nna ya bụ Chineke. Ọ bụ ya ka otuto niile na ike niile dịịrị ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi. Amen. (aiōn g165)
and hath made us kings and priests to his God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
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 is coming with the clouds, and every eye shall see Him, even they that pierced Him: and all the tribes of the earth shall lament before Him. Even so, Amen!
8 Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị Chineke kwuru, “Abụ m Alfa na Omega, onye na-adị, onye ahụ dịkwaarị, na onye ahụ na-aga ịbịa, bụ onye pụrụ ime ihe niile.”
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord, who is, and who was, and who is to come, the Almighty.
9 Mụ onwe m, Jọn, nwanne unu nwoke, onye unu na ya na-enwekọ ahụhụ na nʼalaeze, na ntachiobi nke bụ oke anyị nʼime Jisọs. Anọ m nʼogbe ala ntakịrị mmiri gbara gburugburu a na-akpọ Patmọs nʼihi okwu Chineke na-agba ama banyere Kraịst.
I John, who am also your brother, and companion in the affliction, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the island called Patmos, for the sake of the word of God, and for 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,
Here I was in the Spirit on the Lord's-day: and heard behind me a loud voice, as of 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, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last; and, What thou seest write in a book, and send it to the seven churches in Asia, 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 to see the voice that spake to me: and when I turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
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 candlesticks one like the Son of man, clothed with a long robe, and girded about the breasts with a golden girdle.
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.
His head and his hairs were white like white wool, as 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 like fine brass, as if they were glowing in a furnace: 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 He had in his right hand seven stars, and out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun when he shineth in his 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, and said to me, "Fear not,
19 “Ya mere, detuo ihe niile ị hụrụla, ihe dị ugbu a na ihe gaje ime na mgbe na adịghị anya.
Write what thou hast seen, the things which are, and which are to be hereafter."
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.
As to the mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks; the seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
