The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
2 onye a gbara ama banyere ihe niile ọ hụrụ, okwu Chineke, na ọgbụgba ama Jisọs Kraịst.
Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that 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.
Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
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 Assemblies which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which 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, and the first begotten of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. Unto 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 )
And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn )
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 cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of 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 Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which 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 also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for 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,
I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great 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 Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven Assemblies which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto 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 with me. And being 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 one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps 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 wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were 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 unto fine brass, as if they burned 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 twoedged sword: and his countenance was as the sun 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, saying unto me, 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 , Hadēs )
I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. (aiōn , Hadēs )
19 “Ya mere, detuo ihe niile ị hụrụla, ihe dị ugbu a na ihe gaje ime na mgbe na adịghị anya.
Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall 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.
The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven Assemblies: and the seven lampstands which thou sawest are the seven Assemblies.
