Okuswelulwa 8
1 Wejile Omwana wa Inama achisulumula echibhoyelo cha musanju, ni kabhao akajibhi-jibhi Mulwile kuti mwanya gwa inusu ya saa.
As soon as the Lamb had broken the seventh seal, there was silence in Heaven for, it might be, half-an-hour.
2 Okumala nindola bhamalaika musanju bhanu bhemeleguyu imbele ya Nyamuanga, na nibhayanwa ganyawegona musanju.
Then I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 Malaika oundi naja, agwatiliye imbakuli ya ijaabhu inu ili no muchumulilo emeleguyu ku bhigabhilo. Hahahaha emichumulilo myafu koleleki ati agusoshe amwi na lisabhwa lya bhekilisha bhona mu bhigabhilo bhya jijaabhu imbele ye chitebhe cho bhutungi.
Next, another angel came and stood at the altar with a golden censer in his hand; and a great quantity of incense was given to him, to mingle with the prayers of all Christ’s People upon the golden altar before the throne.
4 Mbe ingesi Ilya eyo muchumulilo amwi na lisabhwa lya bhekilisha, nililinya ingulu imbele ya Nyamuanga okusoka mu kubhoko kwa malaika.
The smoke of the incense ascended, with the prayers of Christ’s People, from the hand of the angel before God.
5 Malaika nagega imbakuli yo muchumulilo na nejusha omulilo okusoka ku bhigabhilo. Okumala nalyesa kunsi, na nibhubhonekana obhulaka bhwa kubhakumanya, jimbesi ja libhaluka na linyamutikima lye chalo.
Then the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire from the altar, and threw it down upon the earth; and there followed ‘peals of thunder, cries, flashes of lightning,’ and an earthquake.
6 Bhamalaika bhalya musanju bhanu bhaliga bhali na jinyawegona musanju nibhelabha okujimbuma.
Then the seven angels holding the seven trumpets prepared to blow their blasts.
7 Mbe Malaika wo kwamba naimbuma inyawegona yaye, mbe nibhonekana ing'ubha ya mabhui no mulilo bhinu bhyaliga bhisasikene na isagama. nibhyeswa emwalo ye chalo koleleki ati akainju Kaye kalungule, akainju ka mati na mwanyasi gona ganu galiga gachali mabhisi gone nigalungula.
The first blew; and there came hail and fire mixed with blood, and it fell upon the earth. A third part of the earth was burnt up, and a third of the trees, and every blade of grass.
8 Malaika wa kabhili one naimbuma inyawegona yaye, ne chinu kuti ebhanga enene one lyaliga nililungula kwo mulilo nilyeswa munyanja. Akainju ka inyanja nibha insagama,
Then the second angel blew; and what appeared to be a great mountain, burning, was hurled into the sea. A third of the sea became blood,
9 akainju ke bhimogwa bhinu bhili bhianga mu Nyamuanga nibhifwa, na akainju ka jimeli nijinyamulwa.
and a third part of all created things that are in the sea — that is, of all living things — died, and a third of the ships was destroyed.
10 Malaika wa kasatu naibhuma inyawegona yaye, mbe injota inene niigwa okusoka Mulwile, muyala wo lumuli, ingulu ya kainju ke migela na majibha ga maji.
Then the third angel blew; and there fell from the heavens a great star, burning like a torch. It fell upon a third of the rivers and upon the springs.
11 Lisina elya Injota eyo ni Nyabhusungu. Liinju Lya maji one nigalula, mbe abhanu bhafu nibhateo okulubhana na maji ago galiga malulu.
(The star is called ‘Wormwood.’) A third of the water became bitter as wormwood, and so bitter was the water that many died from drinking it.
12 Malaika wa kana naibhuma inyawegona yaye, na liinju Lya lisubha nilibhumwa, amwi na kainju ko kwesi na kainju ka jinyota. kulwejo akainju ka bhyona nibhiinduka nichibha chisute; akainju ka mumwisi na akainju ka mungeta bhyona bhitabhee na bhwelu.
Then the fourth angel blew; and a third of the sun and a third of the moon and a third of the stars were blasted, so that a third of them was eclipsed, and for a third part of the day there was no light, and at night it was the same.
13 Nindola, na ninungwa inkona inu yaliga niguluka ili agati-gati ya mulutumba, nibhilikila kwo bhulaka bhwa ingulu ati, Jabhabhona, jabhabhona, jabhabhona, ku bhanu bhekaye mu Chalo, kunsonga yo bhulaka bhunene obhwa nyawegona inu isagile inu Ili yei okubhumwa na Malaika wa kasatu.”
And, in my vision, I heard an eagle flying in mid-heaven and crying in a loud voice — ‘Woe, woe, woe for all who live on the earth, at the other trumpet-blasts of the three angels who have yet to blow.’
