Mkpughe 7
1 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, ahụrụ m ndị mmụọ ozi anọ ka ha guzo nʼakụkụ anọ nke ụwa. Ha na-egbochikwa ka ifufe ọbụla ghara ife nʼelu ala, na nʼelu osimiri, na nʼelu osisi.
And after this, I saw four angels standing on the four quarters of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, so that no wind would blow on the earth, or on the sea, or on any tree.
2 Mgbe ahụ, ahụkwara m mmụọ ozi ọzọ ka o si nʼọwụwa anyanwụ na-apụta, akara Chineke dị ndụ dịkwa nʼaka ya. O tikuru ndị mmụọ ozi anọ ahụ mkpu, bụ ndị ahụ e nyere ike imekpa ụwa ahụ, ya na oke osimiri,
I saw another angel ascend from the sunrise, having the seal of the living God. He called out with a loud voice to the four angels to whom it was given to harm the earth and the sea,
3 na-asị, “Unu emebila ụwa maọbụ oke osimiri maọbụ osisi ọbụla tutu ruo mgbe anyị kachara ndị ohu niile nke Chineke anyị akara nʼegedege ihu ha.”
saying, "Do not harm the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, until we have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads."
4 Mgbe ahụ anụrụ m ọnụọgụgụ ndị a kara akara ahụ, ha dị narị puku mmadụ, na iri puku mmadụ anọ na anọ, bụ ndị sitere nʼebo niile nke Izrel.
I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:
5 Ndị a kara akara site nʼebo Juda dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. Ndị si nʼebo Ruben dịkwa puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. Ndị si nʼebo Gad dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ.
of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand, of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand,
6 E sitere nʼebo Asha họpụta puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. Ndị sitekwara nʼebo Naftalị dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. E sitere nʼebo Manase họpụta puku mmadụ iri na abụọ.
of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand,
7 Ndị si nʼebo Simiọn dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. Ndị sitere nʼebo Livayị dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. Ndị si nʼebo Isaka dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ.
of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand, of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand,
8 E sitere nʼebo Zebụlọn họpụta puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. Ndị si nʼebo Josef dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ. Ndị sikwa nʼebo Benjamin dị puku mmadụ iri na abụọ.
of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand, of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, of the tribe of Benjamin were sealed twelve thousand.
9 Mgbe ihe ndị a gasịrị, ahụrụ m oke igwe mmadụ, ndị dị ọtụtụ nʼọnụọgụgụ nke onye ọbụla na-apụghị ịgụta ọnụ. Ha sitere na mba dị iche iche na ebo dị iche iche na ndị niile na asụsụ dị iche iche, na-eguzo nʼihu ocheeze ahụ na nʼihu Nwa Atụrụ ahụ. Ha yikwasịrị onwe ha uwe ọcha, jirikwa igu nkwụ nʼaka ha.
After these things I looked, and suddenly there was a great multitude, which no one could number, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.
10 Ma ha ji oke olu na-eti mkpu na-asị, “Nzọpụta dịrị Chineke anyị, onye na-anọkwasị nʼocheeze ahụ, dịkwara Nwa atụrụ ahụ.”
They shouted with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb."
11 Ndị mmụọ ozi niile ahụ guzoro ocheeze ahụ gburugburu, ha na ndị okenye ahụ na anụ anọ ahụ dị ndụ. Ha dara, kpuo ihu ha nʼala nʼihu ocheeze ahụ feekwa Chineke ofufe,
All the angels were standing around the throne, the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before the throne, and worshiped God,
12 na-asị, “Amen! Ngọzị niile na otuto niile, na amamihe niile na ekele niile na nsọpụrụ niile na ike niile na ume niile, dịrị Chineke anyị ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi. Amen.” (aiōn g165)
saying, "Amen. Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever. Amen." (aiōn g165)
13 Mgbe ahụ, otu nʼime ndị okenye ahụ zara m sị, “Ị maara ndị ahụ, ndị a e gbokwasịrị uwe ọcha ahụ, ebee ka ha siri pụta?”
One of the elders answered, saying to me, "These who are arrayed in white robes, who are they, and from where did they come?"
14 Asịrị m, “Onyenwe m, ọ bụ gị maara.” Ọ sịrị m, “Ndị a bụ ndị sitere nʼime oke mkpagbu ahụ pụta. Ha bụ ndị sachara uwe ha, mee ha ka ha dịrị ọcha site nʼọbara Nwa Atụrụ ahụ.
So I said to him, "My lord, you know." He said to me, "These are the ones who came out of the great tribulation. They washed their robes, and made them white in the Lamb's blood.
15 Ọ bụ nke a mere, “ha ji guzoro nʼihu ocheeze Chineke na-efe ya ofufe ehihie na abalị nʼime ụlọnsọ ya. Onye ahụ na-anọkwasị nʼelu ocheeze ahụ ga-ekpuchikwa ha.
Therefore they are before the throne of God, they serve him day and night in his temple. He who sits on the throne will spread his tabernacle over them.
16 ‘Agụụ agaghị agụkwa ha ọzọ. Akpịrị agaghị akpọkwa ha nkụ mgbe ọbụla. Anyanwụ agaghị achakwa ha ọzọ,’ okpomọkụ ọbụla agaghị erute ebe ha nọ.
They will hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither will the sun beat on them, nor any heat;
17 Nʼihi na Nwa Atụrụ ahụ nke nọ nʼetiti ocheeze ahụ ga-abụ onye ọzụzụ atụrụ ha; ‘ọ ga-edurukwa ha jee nʼisi mmiri nke ndụ ahụ.’ ‘Chineke ga-ehichapụkwa anya mmiri ọbụla site nʼanya ha.’”
for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne shepherds them, and leads them to springs of waters of life. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes."
