1 Ejo jejile jawa nindola Bhamalaika bhana bhemeleguyu ku nsonde ena eje chalo, nibhaganya emiyaga ena eja insi kwa managa koleleki ati gwasiga kubhao muyaga gunu oguyemba ku nsi, ingulu ya inyanja amwi kwiti Lyona lyona.
Then I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth holding back the earth's four winds to prevent any wind from blowing on the earth, or over the sea, or against any tree.
2 Nindola Malaika oundi naja okusoka ebhutuluka esubha, unu aliga ane echibhoyelo echa Nyamuanga unu alamile. Nalila kwo bhulaka bhwa ingulu ku Bhamalaika bhana bhanu bhekilisibhwe okunyamula Insi na Inyanja:
I watched another angel rise up from the east, holding the seal of the living God. He shouted in a loud voice to the four angels who had been given the power to damage the earth and the sea,
3 “Mwasiga kunyamula Insi, Inyanja, amwi amati Kukingila anu chakateleko olunyamo ku bhusu bhwe mites ja abhakosi bha Nyamuanga weswe.”
“Don't hurt the earth or the sea or the trees until we have placed a seal on the foreheads of God's true followers!”
4 Ninungwa obhukumi bhwa bhaliya bhanu bhaliga bhateyweko olunyamo 144,000, bhanu bhateleyweko olunyamo okusoka ku bhuli luganda lwa bhanu bha Israel:
I was told the number of those who were sealed: one hundred and forty-four thousand. Those who were sealed came from every tribe of the children of Israel:
5 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Yuda bhateleyweko olunyamo, 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Leubheni, 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Gadi.
twelve thousand from the tribe of Judah, twelve thousand from the tribe of Reuben, twelve thousand from the tribe of Gad,
6 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Asheri, 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Naftali, 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Manase.
twelve thousand from the tribe of Asher, twelve thousand from the tribe of Naphtali, twelve thousand from the tribe of Manasseh,
7 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Simoni, 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Lawi, 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Isakari,
twelve thousand from the tribe of Simeon, twelve thousand from the tribe of Levi, twelve thousand from the tribe of Issachar,
8 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Jabhuloni, 12,000 okusoka mu luganda lwa Yusufu, na 12,000 okusoka muluganda lwa Bhejamini bhateleyweko olunyamo.
twelve thousand from the tribe of Zebulun, twelve thousand from the tribe of Joseph, twelve thousand from the tribe of Benjamin.
9 Emisango ejo jejile jawa mbe nindola ati, chaliga chilio chise chinene chinu atakabhonekene munu unu akatulile okuchibhala- okusoka ku bhuli Eyanga, ku luganda, ku bhanya -luganda, na ku ndimi bhemeleguyu imbele ye chitebhe Cha Ingoma na imbele ya omwana wa Inama. Bhaliga bhafwaye jinkanju jimwela kobho na bhana amatabhi ga amakinda mu mabhoko gebhwe,
After this I looked and saw a great crowd that nobody could count, made up of every nation, tribe, people and language. They were standing in front of the throne and the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands.
10 bhaliga nibhamubhilikila kwo bhulaka bhwa ingulu: “Omwelulo ni gwa Nyamuanga unu enyanjile ku chitebhe cha ingoma, na kwo Mwana wa inama!”
They gave a loud shout, “Salvation is from our God who sits on the throne, and from the Lamb.”
11 Bhamalaika bhona bhaliga bhemeleguyu bhasingiye echitebhe cha Ingoma na bhabhasingiye abhakaluka bhalya amwi na abho abhobhuanga bhana, nibhenama Kukinga ansi ku mayalu na nibhatayo obhusu bhwebhwe ingulu ya mayalu imbele ye chitebhe cha Ingoma no kumulamya Nyamuanga,
All the angels surrounding the throne, and the elders and the four living creatures, fell down on their faces before the throne, worshipping God.
12 nibhwaika ati, “Amina! unu kakuyibhwa, likusho, obhwengeso, isime, echibhalo obhutulo na amanaga bhibhe ku Nyamuanga weswe kajanende na kajanende! Amina!” (aiōn g165)
“Amen!” they said. “Blessing, glory, wisdom, gratitude, honor, power, and strength, be to God for ever and ever. Amen.” (aiōn g165)
13 Okumala oumwi wa bhaliya abhakaluka nambusha ati, “Kabhanu nibhaga bhanu bhafwaye jinkanju jimwela, na kabhasokele aki?
One of the elders spoke to me and asked, “Who are those who are dressed in white robes, and where have they come from?”
14 Mbe nimubhwila nti, “Latabhugenyi mkulu, awe umenyele,” Mbe nambwila ati, bhanu ni bhaliya bhanu bhasokele mu kunyasibhwa kunene. Bhajifulile jinkanju jebhwe no kujikola jibhe jimwela kwa insagama yo mwana wa Inama.
I replied, “My Lord, you know the answer.” He told me, “These are the ones who have passed through great persecution. They washed their robes, making them white through the blood of the Lamb.
15 Kunsonga inu, bhali ku chitebhe cha Ingoma echa Nyamuanga, na abhakola mwenene mugeta na mumwisi mu Yekalu yaye. Omwene unu aliga enyanjile ku chitebhe cha Ingoma kajokubhanyalaganyisha liyema lyaye ingulu yebhwe.
That's why they can stand in front of God's throne, and they serve him day and night in his Temple. The one who sits on the throne will protect them with his presence.
16 Bhatalisubha kulumwa njala lindi, nolwo kwitwa bhwilo. Lisubha litalibhocha, nolwo ebhila lwo kwocha.
They will never be hungry ever again, or thirsty; the sun will not beat down on them and they will not suffer scorching heat,
17 Kulwo kubha omwana wa Inama unu ali agati-gati ye chitebhe cha Ingoma Kabhanu mulefi webhwe, na alibhatangasha ku mifeleji me bhisima bhya Mami go bhuanga, na Nyamuanga alibheya bhuli esiga mu meso gebhwe.”
because the Lamb who is at the center of the throne will be their shepherd, and will lead them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
