< Ufunuo 13 >
1 Kisha lijhoka likajhema panani pa n'sanga mu ufukwe bhwa bahari. Kisha nikabhona mnyama ihomela mu bahari. Ajhele ni mang'eru kumi ni mitu saba. Mu mang'eru ghake kwajhele ni taji kumi, ni pa mutu pake pajhele ni malobhi gha kufuru kwa K'yara.
Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.
2 Mnyama ojho jha nibwene ajhe kama s'obhi. Magolo ghake ghajhele kama dubu, ni ndomo bhwa muene bhwajhele kama simba. Lijhoka lela likampela nghofu, na pakiti kya enzi, ni mamlaka ghaghajhele ni nghofu nesu jha kutawala.
The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
3 Mutu ghwa mnyama mmojawapo kyabhoniki kujha ni lijeraha libhaha ambalyo ngalisababisi mauti gha muene. Lakini lijeraha lya muene lyaponili, ni dunia jhioha jhasyangesibhu ni kun'kesya mnyama.
One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.
4 Kabhele bhakaliabudu lijhoka, maana ampelili mamlaka jhola mnyama. Bhakamwabudu mnyama kabhele, na bhajhendelili kujobha, “Niani kama mnyama? na “Niani ibetakukomana naku?”
They worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
5 Mnyama akapelibhwa ndomo ili alongelayi malobhi gha kwisifila ni malighu. Aruhusibhu kujha ni mamlaka kwa miesi arobaini ni mibhele.
A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.
6 Hivyo mnyama adajhuili ndomo ghwa muene kulongela malighu dhidi jha K'yara, alilighili lihina lya muene, lieneo lya atameghe ni bhala bhabhitama kumbinguni.
He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, his dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.
7 Mnyama aruhusibhu kubhomba vita ni bhaamini ni kubhashinda. Kabhele, apelibhu mamlaka juu jha khila likabila, bhanu, lugha ni taifa.
It was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.
8 Bhoha bhatameghe paduniani bhibetakumwabudu muene, khila mmonga ambajhe lihina lya muene lijhandiki bhulepi, kuhoma uumbaji bhwa dunia, mu kitabu kya uzima, ambakyo ndo mwanakondoo, ambajhe achinjibhu.
All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
9 Ikajhiajhi muene ajhe ni mbol'okoto, na apelekesiajhi.
If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
10 Ikajhele mmojawapo atolibhu mateka, ni kumateka ilota. Ikajhiajhi mmojawapo ibeta kuhoma kwa upanga, kwa upanga ibetakukomibhwa. Obho ndo mwilota bhwa utulivu ni uvumilivu ni imani kwa abhu bhabhajhele bhatakatifu.
If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
11 Kabhele nabhwene mnyama jhongi ihida kuhoma mu nchi. Ajhele mwenye mang'eru mabhele kama likondoo na alongelili kama lijhoka.
I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.
12 Alasili mamlaka ghoha kwa mnyama jhola ghwa kuanza mu uwepo bhwa muene ni kukheta pa dunia ni bhala bhabhiishi kumwabudu jhola mnyama ghwa kuanza, jhola ambajhe jeraha lya muene lyaponili.
He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
13 Akabhomba miujiza jha jhijhele ni nghofu, hata akatengenesya muoto uselelayi pa dunia Kuhoma kumbinguni palongolo pa bhanu,
He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.
14 ni kwa ishara aruhusibhu kubhomba akabhakofya abhu bhabhitama mu dunia, akabhajobhela kutengenesya sanamu kwa heshima jha mnyama ambajhe ajeruhibhu kwa upanga, lakini bado akajhaiishi.
He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast, saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.
15 Aruhusibhu kupisya pumzi mu sanamu jhela jha mnyama ili sanamu jhibhwesiajhi kulongela ni kusababisya bhala bhoha bhabhabelili kumwabudu mnyama na bhakhomibhwayi.
It was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed.
16 Kabhele alasimisi khila mmonga jha abelikujha ni thamani ni mwenye nghofu, tajiri ni maskini, huru ni mtumwa, kupokela alama mu kibhokho Kya kuume au mu paji lya pamihu.
He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands or on their foreheads;
17 Jhikajha jhibhwesekana lepi kwa kila munu kugo'lesya au kutola isi mwenye alama jha mnyama, na e'j'he ndo namba jha kuwakilisya lihina lya muene.
and that no one would be able to buy or to sell unless he has that mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
18 Ejhe jhilonda busara. Ikajhiajhi jhejhioha ajhe ni ufahamu, ndekayi abhwesiajhi kubhomba. Maana ndo namba jha kibinadamu. Namba jha muene ndo 666.
Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred sixty-six.
