Ufunuo 18
1 Baada jha fenu efe nambwene malaika iselela pasi kuhoma mu mabhengu. Muene ajhe ni mamlaka mabhaha, ni nchi jhamulikibhu kwa bhutukufu bhwa muene.
After these things, I saw another angel coming down out of the sky, having great authority. The earth was illuminated with his glory.
2 Alelili kwa sauti mbaha, akajobha, “Ubinili, ubinili, bhola mji mbaha Babeli! magono agha ndo sehemu jhajhitama mapepo, ni sehemu jhajhitama khila roho chafu, ni sehemu paitama khila roho chafu, ni sehemu paitama khila nchafu ni kidege Kya kidadisya.
He cried with a mighty voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and she has become a habitation of demons, a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hated bird!
3 Kwakujha mataifa ghoha ghanywili mvinyo jha tamaa jha uasherati bha muene ambajho jhikandetela ghadhabu. Bhafalme bha nchi bhezinili naku. Bhabhomba biashara bha nchi bhajhe matajiri kwa nghofu jha maisha gha muene gha anasa.”
For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality, the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from the abundance of her luxury.”
4 Kabhele napeliki sauti jhenge kuhoma kumbinguni jhijobha, “mubhokayi kwa muene bhanu bha nene, ili musihidi kushifiki mu dhambi sya muene, na ili musihidi kujhambelela mapigo gha muene ghoha.
I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, my people, that you have no participation in her sins, and that you don’t receive of her plagues,
5 Dhambi sya muene sikorondiki panani kama mbingu, ni K'yara aghakhombuiki matendo gha muene maovu.
for her sins have reached to the sky, and God has remembered her iniquities.
6 Mundepayi kama kya abhalepili bhamana, na mukandepayi mara sibhele kwa kya abhombili; mu kikombi kya akichangenye munchanganyilayi mara mbili kwandabha jha muene.
Return to her just as she returned, and repay her double as she did, and according to her works. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.
7 Kama kyaakitukuisi muene, na atamili kwa anasa, mumpelayi malombosi ghamehele ni huzuni. Kwa kujha ijobha mu ndumbula jha muene, 'Nitamili kama malkia; Wala mjane lepi, na nibeta lepi kubhona maombolezo.'
However much she glorified herself and grew wanton, so much give her of torment and mourning. For she says in her heart, ‘I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see mourning.’
8 Kwa hiyo muligono limonga mapigo gha muene ghibeta kun'sindwa: Kifu, maombolesu, ni njala. Ibetakupya ni muoto, kwa kujha Bwana K'yara ajhe ni nghofu, na ndo mhukumu ghwa muene.”
Therefore in one day her plagues will come: death, mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire, for the Lord God who has judged her is strong.
9 Bhafalme bha nchi syasihongene ni kuchanyikibhwa pamonga ni muene bhibeta kulela ni kuombolesela pabhibeta kubhubhona lyosi lya kupya kwa muene.
The kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived wantonly with her will weep and wail over her, when they look at the smoke of her burning,
10 Bhibeta kujhema patali naku, kwa hofu jha maumivu gha muene ni kujobha, “Ole, ole kwa mji mbaha, Babeli, mji bhwa bhujhe ni nghofu! kwa lisaa limonga hukumu jha jhobhi j'hidhidili.”
standing far away for the fear of her torment, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For your judgment has come in one hour.’
11 Bhabhomba biashara bha nchi mulelayi ni kuombolesya kwa ndabha jha muene kwakujha ajhelepi hata mmonga jhaihemela bidhaa sya muene kabhele
The merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise any more:
12 - bidhaa sya dhahabu, fedha, maganga gha thamani, lulu, kitani jhinofu, zambarau, hariri, jhidung'u aina syoha sya mabehe jha harufu jhinofu, kila khenu kya mang'eru gha ndovu, khila ambakyo khenu kyatengenesibhu kwa mabehe gha thamani, shaba, lichuma, liganga,
merchandise of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet, all expensive wood, every vessel of ivory, every vessel made of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble;
13 Mdalasini, fiungu, uvumba, manemane, ubani, mvinyo, mafuta, sembe unofu, ngano ng'ombi ni likondoo, farasi ni magari, ni bhatumwa, ni roho jha bhanu.
and cinnamon, incense, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, cattle, sheep, horses, chariots, and people’s bodies and souls.
14 Matunda gha ughanogheleghe kwa nghofu sya jhobhi ghabhokili kuhoma kwa bhebhe. Anasa sya jhobhi syoha ni mapambanu ghabhokili, ghibeta lepi kubhoneka kabhele.
The fruits which your soul lusted after have been lost to you. All things that were dainty and sumptuous have perished from you, and you will find them no more at all.
15 Bhabhomba biashara bha fenu efe bho bhakabhili utajiri kwa mapenzi gha muene bhibeta jhema patali kuhoma kwa muene kwa ndabha jha hofu jha maumivu gha muene, bhibeta lela ni sauti jha maombolesu.
The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far away for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning,
16 Bhakajobha, “Ole, ole mji bhola mbaha bhwa bhufwekibhu kitani kinofu, zambarau, ni jhidung'u, ni kupambibhwa kwa dhahabu ni vito fya thamani ni lulu!”
saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, she who was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls!
17 Mu lisaa limonga utajiri bhuoha obho bhwa bhokili. Khila nahodha ghwa meli, khila baharia, ni bhoha bhamasi ni bhoha bhabhibhomba mbombo mu bahari, bhajhemili patali.
For in an hour such great riches are made desolate.’ Every ship master, and everyone who sails anywhere, and mariners, and as many as gain their living by sea, stood far away,
18 Bhalelili bho bhalibhuene lyosi lya kupya kwa muene. Bhakajobha, ndo mji bhaloki bhwiwaningana ni mji obho mbaha?”
and cried out as they looked at the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘What is like the great city?’
19 Bhataghili bhalelili, bhahomisi mahosi ni kuombolesya, “Ole, ole mji mbaha mahali poha pajhele ni meli sya bhene mu bahari bhajhele matajiri kutokani ni mali sya muene. Mu lisaa limonga bhujhangamili.”
They cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had their ships in the sea were made rich by reason of her great wealth!’ For she is made desolate in one hour.
20 “Muhobhokayi panani pa muene, mbingu, muenga bhaumini, mitume ni manabii kwandabha K'yara aletili hukumu jha muenga panani pa muene!”
“Rejoice over her, O heaven, you saints, apostles, and prophets, for God has judged your judgment on her.”
21 Malaika bhenye nghofu ajhinuili liganga kama liganga libhaha lya kusyaghila ni kulitagha mu bahari, akajobha, “Kwa njela ajhe, Babeli, bhola mji mbaha bhwibeta kutaghibhwa pasi kwa ukatili na wibeta lepi kubhoneka kabhele.
A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all.
22 Sauti jha finanda, bhanamuziki, bhakina filimbi, tarumbeta bhibeta lepi kup'el'eka kwa muenga kabhele.
The voice of harpists, minstrels, flute players, and trumpeters will be heard no more at all in you. No craftsman of whatever craft will be found any more at all in you. The sound of a mill will be heard no more at all in you.
23 Mwanga ghwa taa wibeta lepi kuangasya mugati mwa bhebhe. Sauti jha Bwana harusi ni bibi harusi sibetalepi kupelikibhwa mugati mwa bhebhe ndabha bhabhomba biashara bha jhobhi bhajhele bhabhaha bha nchi ni bha mataifa bhakofibhu kwa uhabi bhwa jhobhi.
The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you, for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived.
24 Mugati mwa muene damu jha manabii ni bhaamini jhabhonekene, ni damu jha bhoha bhabhakomibhu panani pa nchi.”
In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth.”
