Mkpughe 8
1 Mgbe o meghere akara nke asaa, akụkụ niile nke eluigwe dara jụụ ruo ihe dị ka iri nkeji atọ.
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 Ahụrụ m ndị mmụọ ozi asaa, ndị na-eguzo nʼihu Chineke. E nyere ha opi ike nʼotu nʼotu.
And I saw the seven angels that stood before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 Mmụọ ozi ọzọ nke ji ite igwe ntakịrị e ji ọlaedo kpụọ bịara guzo nʼihu ebe ịchụ aja. E nyere ya ọtụtụ ụda na-esi isi ụtọ ka o jiri chụọ aja, ya na ekpere ndị nsọ niile, nʼebe ịchụ aja e jiri ọlaedo wuo, nʼihu ocheeze ahụ.
And another angel came, and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, that he might offer it with the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar that is before the throne.
4 Anwụrụ ọkụ nke ihe ahụ na-esi isi ụtọ, ya na ekpere ndị nsọ sitere nʼaka mmụọ ozi ahụ rigoo elu nʼihu Chineke.
And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God out of the hand of the angel.
5 Mgbe ahụ kwa, mmụọ ozi ahụ weere ọkụ sitere nʼebe ịchụ aja ahụ tinye ya nʼime ite igwe ntakịrị ahụ, tụda ya, ka ọ danye nʼime ụwa. Mgbe o mere nke a, ụzụ egbe eluigwe dara, amụma gbukwara nʼụzọ dị oke egwu. Ala ọma jijiji dakwasịkwara ebe niile nʼụwa.
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it into the earth; and there were voices and thunderings and lightnings and an earthquake.
6 Mgbe ahụ, ndị mmụọ ozi asaa ahụ ndị ji opi asaa ahụ jikeere onwe ha ịfụ opi ike ahụ.
And the seven angels that had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.
7 Mgbe mmụọ ozi nke mbụ fụrụ opi ike ya, a tụdara mkpụrụ mmiri na ọkụ a gwakọtara ya na ọbara nʼime ụwa. Nke a mere ka otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ nke osisi rechapụrụ ọkụ, e rechapụkwara ahịhịa ndụ niile ọkụ.
And the first angel sounded; and there were hail and fire mingled with blood, and they were thrown into the earth: and the third part of the earth was burned up, and the third part of the trees was burned up, and all the green grass was burned up.
8 Mgbe mmụọ ozi nke abụọ fụkwara opi ike ya, a tụdara ihe yiri ugwu dị ukwuu na-enwu ọkụ nʼime osimiri. Nke a mere ka otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ e kere osimiri niile chagharịa ghọọ ọbara.
And the second angel sounded; and, as it were, a great mountain, burning with fire, was thrown into the sea: and the third part of the sea became blood.
9 Otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ nke ihe niile dị ndụ dị nʼime osimiri nwụrụ. Otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ e kere ụgbọ mmiri niile dị nʼelu osimiri lara nʼiyi.
And the third part of the creatures that were in the sea, that had life, died: and the third part of the ships was destroyed.
10 Mgbe mmụọ ozi nke atọ fụrụ opi ike ya, otu kpakpando dịkarịsịrị ukwuu nke na-enwu dị ka ọwaọkụ sitere na mbara eluigwe danye nʼime otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ e kere iyi niile na isi iyi niile.
And the third angel sounded; and there fell from heaven a great star, that burned as a lamp; and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters.
11 Aha kpakpando ahụ bụ Ilu ilu. Otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ nke mmiri malitere ilu ilu, ọtụtụ mmadụ nwụrụ nʼihi mmiri a na-elu ilu.
And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and the third part of the waters became wormwood: and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 Mgbe mmụọ ozi nke anọ fụrụ opi ike ya, e mere ka otu akụkụ nʼime akụkụ atọ e kere anyanwụ gbaa ọchịchịrị. Otu a kwa, otu akụkụ nʼime akụkụ atọ e kere ọnwa gbara ọchịchịrị. Ya na otu akụkụ nʼime atọ e kere kpakpando niile. Nke a mere ka anyanwụ hapụ inyekwa ìhè ya nʼuju dịka o si eme na mbụ. Otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ atọ e kere ehihie ghọkwara oke ọchịchịrị, ọ dịkwa otu a nʼoge anyasị.
And the fourth angel sounded; and the third part of the sun, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars was smitten, that the third part might be darkened, and that the day might not shine for the third part of it, and the night in like manner.
13 Elere m anya, hụ ma nụkwa otu ugo ka ọ na-efegharị nʼetiti mbara eluigwe na-eti mkpu nʼolu ike na-asị, “Ahụhụ! Ahụhụ! Ahụhụ dịrị mmadụ niile bi nʼụwa nʼihi ụda opi ike nke ndị mmụọ ozi atọ ndị a ga-afụ.”
And I saw, and heard an eagle, as he flew in mid-heaven, saying, with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe to the inhabitants of the earth, because of the remaining voices of the trumpets of the three angels which are yet to sound.
