< Mkpughe 4 >
1 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, eleliri m anya m hụ ọnụ ụzọ dị nʼeluigwe ka e meghere ya. Ụda olu ahụ m nụrụ na mmalite dara ọzọ, dị ka ụda opi ike sị m, “Bịa, gbagota nʼebe a, ka m gosi gị ihe ga-emezuriri mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị.”
After these things I saw, and behold, a door was opened in the heaven: and the first voice I heard was as of a trumpet speaking with me; saying; Come up hither, and I will show thee the things which it behooves to come to pass after these.
2 Nʼotu oge ahụ, e mere ka m nọọ nʼime mmụọ, ma lee, ahụrụ m onwe m nʼeluigwe, hụkwa ka e debere otu ocheeze nke otu onye na-anọkwasị nʼelu ya.
Immediately I was in the Spirit: and behold, a throne was set in the heaven, and on the throne one sitting,
3 Ụdịdị onye nọkwasịrị nʼocheeze ahụ na-egbu nweghenweghe dịka nkume dị oke ọnụahịa a na-akpọ jaspa na kanelian. Eke na egwurugwu dịka nkume oke ọnụahịa. Emeralụdụ gbara ocheeze ahụ gburugburu.
and the one sitting was in appearance like unto a jasper and a sardius stone: and a rainbow was around about the throne, in appearance like unto an emerald.
4 Iri ocheeze abụọ na anọ ọzọ, gbara ocheeze ukwu ahụ gburugburu. Ndị nọkwasịrị nʼocheeze ndị a bụ iri ndị okenye abụọ na anọ, ndị yi uwe ọcha. Ha kpukwa okpueze e ji ọlaedo kpụọ nʼisi ha.
And around about the throne were twenty-four thrones: and on the thrones twenty-four elders are sitting, clothed in white garments; and upon their heads golden crowns.
5 Mgbe ahụ, ụda dịka ụda egbe eluigwe, ya na amụma na-egbuke sitere nʼocheeze ukwu ahụ na-ada na-achapụtakwa. Nʼihu ocheeze ukwu ahụ, e nwere oriọna asaa na-enwu ọkụ. Oriọna ndị a bụ mmụọ asaa nke Chineke.
And from the throne lightnings and voices and thunders are going out; and seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God:
6 Nʼihu ocheeze ahụ e nwere ihe dịka oke osimiri e ji enyo mee, nke na-enwu dịka kristal. Nʼetiti ihu ocheeze ahụ na gburugburu ya, e nwere anụ anọ dị ndụ nwere anya nʼakụkụ ahụ ha niile, ihu na azụ.
and before the throne a glassy sea like crystal; and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, are four living creatures filled with eyes in front and in the rear.
7 Nke mbụ nʼime anụ ndị ahụ dị ndụ nwere oyiyi dịka ọdụm. Nke abụọ dịka ehi. Nke atọ nwere ihu yiri nke mmadụ. Nke anọ dịka ugo gbasapụrụ nku ya na-efe efe.
And the first living creature was like unto a lion, and the second living creature was like unto a bullock, and the third living creature having the face as of a man, and the fourth living creature was like unto a flying eagle.
8 Nke ọbụla nʼime ihe anọ ndị a dị ndụ nwere nku isii. Anya jupụtara nʼahụ ha niile na nʼime ha, ọ bụladị nʼokpuru nku ha. Ehihie na abalị niile, ọrụ ha bụ iti mkpu na-asị,
And the four living creatures having six wings, one opposite one of them; filled with eyes without and within; and they cease not day and night, saying; Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Omnipotent, who was, and who is, and who is the one coming.
9 Mgbe ọbụla anụ ndị ahụ dị ndụ na-enye onye ahụ na-anọkwasị nʼelu ocheeze ahụ na-adị ndụ ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi otuto na nsọpụrụ na ekele, (aiōn )
And when the living creatures shall give glory and honor and thanksgiving to the one sitting upon the throne, who lives unto the ages of the ages, (aiōn )
10 iri ndị okenye abụọ na anọ ahụ na-adakwa nʼala nʼihu onye ahụ nọ nʼocheeze na-efe ya ofufe, bụ onye ahụ na-adị ndụ ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi. Ha niile nʼotu nʼotu na-atụda okpueze ha nʼihu ya na-abụ abụ na-asị, (aiōn )
the twenty-four elders will fall down before the one sitting upon the throne, and will worship Him who lives unto the ages of the ages, and will cast their crowns before the throne, (aiōn )
11 “Gị, Onyenwe anyị na Chineke anyị, kwesiri ịnara otuto, na nsọpụrụ, na ike. Nʼihi na gị onwe gị kere ihe niile, ọ bụkwa site nʼọchịchọ gị ka e ji kee ha, ma meekwa ka ha dịrị ndụ.”
saying, Thou art worthy, O Lord truly our God, to receive glory and honor and power: because thou hast created all things, and through thy will they were, and were created.
