Ufunuo 21
1 Kabhele nikabhona mbingu mpya ni nchi nyipya, ku kujha mbingu jha kuanza ni nchi jha kuanza simalikulota, ni bahari jhajhelepi kabhele.
I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.
2 Nabhwene mji mtakatifu, Yerusalemu nyipya ambabho bhwahidili pasi kuhoma kumbinguni kwa K'yara, bhwabhwajhendalibhu kama bibi harusi jhaapambibhu kwandabha jha n'gosi munu.
I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
3 Napeliki sauti mbaha kuhoma kiti kya enzi jhijobha, “Langayi! Makao gha K'yara ghajhele pamonga ni gha bhanadamu, ni muene ibeta kutama pamonga nabhu. Bhibeta kujha bhanu bha muene, ni K'yara muene ibetakujha nabhu na ibetakujha K'yara ghwa bhene.
I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with people; and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.
4 Ibetakupolosya khila lihosi kuhoma mu mihu gha bhene, na Pibetalepi kujhe ni kifo kabhele, au kuombolesya, au kulela, au maumivu. Mambo gha muandi ghamalikup'eta.
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more. The first things have passed away.”
5 Muene jhaatamili panani pa kiti kya enzi ajobhili, “Langayi! Nibhomba mambo ghoha agha kujha mapya.” Ajobhili, “Jhandikayi agha kwandabha malobhi agha ndo gha uhakika ni kweli.”
He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” He said, “Write, for these words of God are faithful and true.”
6 Anijobhili, “Mambo agha ghamalili kup'eta! Nene ndo Alfa ni Omega, mwanzo ni mwishu kwa jhejhioha jhaibetakubhona kiu nibeta kumpela kinywaji bila gharama kuhoma mu chemichemi jha masi gha uzima.
He said to me, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the water of life.
7 Muene jhaibeta kushinda ibeta kugharithi mambo agha, na nibetakujha K'yara kwa muene, ni muene ibeta kujha mwanabhangu.
He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.
9 Mmonga ghwa malaika saba ahidili kwa nene, mmonga ambajhe ajhe ni mabakuli saba ghaghamemili mapigo saba gha mwishu na ajobhili, “Hidayi apa. Nibetakulasya bibi harusi, n'dala ghwa mwanakondoo.
One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls which were loaded with the seven last plagues came, and he spoke with me, saying, “Come here. I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.”
10 “Kabhele anitolili patali mu Roho mu kidonda kibhaha ni kitali na anilasili mji mtakatifu, Yerusalemu, wiselela pasi kuhoma kumbinguni kwa K'yara.
He carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 Yerusalemu bhwajhele ni utukufu bhwa K'yara, ni unofu bhwuake bhwajhele kama kito kya thamani, kama liganga lya kiobho kinofu kya Yaspi.
having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 Ghwajhele ni lubhomba lubhaha, lutali leave lujhele ni miliangu kumi ni mibhele, pamonga ni malaika kumi ni bhabhele pandiangu. Panani pa ndiangu pajhandikibhu mahina gha makabila kumi ni mabhele gha bhana bha Israel.
having a great and high wall with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 Lubhafu lwa mashariki pajhele ni miliangu midatu, lubhafu lwa kusini miliangu midatu lubhafu lwa kusini miliangu midatu lubhafu lwa kaskazini ni miliangu midatu, ni lubhafu lwa magharibi miliangu midatu.
On the east were three gates, and on the north three gates, and on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.
14 Lubhomba leave mji kwajhele ni misingi kumi ni mibhele, ni panani pake pajhele ni mahina kumi ni mabhele gha mitume ni bhabhele bha mwanakondoo.
The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
15 Mmonga jha alongili ni nene ajhele ni kip'emu Kya ndonga jha jhitengenesibhu kwa dhahabu kwandabha jha kup'ema mji, miliangu ghiake ni lubhomba luake.
He who spoke with me had for a measure a golden reed to measure the city, its gates, and its walls.
16 Mji ghwa bhekibhu mgati mu mraba; utali bhwake bhwajhele sawa ni upana bhuake. Ap'emili mji kwa kip'emu kya ndonga stadia 12, 000 kwa utali (utali bhuake, upana, ni kimo fyawaningene).
The city is square. Its length is as great as its width. He measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand twelve stadia. Its length, width, and height are equal.
17 Fela fela ap'emili lubhomba lwa muene, unene bhwake bhwajhele dhiraa 144 kwa fipemu fya kibinadamu (ambafyo kabhele ndo fip'emu fya malaika).
Its wall is one hundred forty-four cubits, by the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.
18 Lubhomba lwajengibhu kwa Yaspi ni masi ghenye dhahabu jhinofu, kama kiobho kinofu.
The construction of its wall was jasper. The city was pure gold, like pure glass.
19 Misingi jha lubhomba jhapambibhu ni khila aina jha liganga lya thamani. Lya kuanza lyajhele yaspi, lya pili lyajhele yakuti samawi, lya tatu lyajhele kalkedon, lya nne Zumaridi,
The foundations of the city’s wall were adorned with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire; the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
20 lya tano sardoniki, lya sita akiki, lya saba krisolitho, lya nane zabarajadi, lya tisa yakuti jha manjano, lya kumi krisopraso, lya kumi na moja hiakintho, lya kumi na mbili amethisto.
the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.
21 Miliangu kumi ni mibhele jhajhele lulu kumi ni sibhele, khila ndiangu bhwatengenesibhu kuhoma mu lulu jhimonga. Mitaa jha mji jhajhele dhahabu jhinofu jhabhoniki kama kiibho safi.
The twelve gates were twelve pearls. Each one of the gates was made of one pearl. The street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
22 Nabhuenelepi hekalu lyolyoha mugati mu mji kwakujha Bwana K'yara, ambajhe itawala panani pa fyoha, ni mwanakondoo ndo hekalu lya muene.
I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
23 Mji ulondeghelepi lijobha wala muesi ili kulangasya panani pake kwandabha utukufu bhwa K'yara bhwalangesye panani pake, ni taa jha muene ndo mwanakondoo.
The city has no need for the sun or moon to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it and its lamp is the Lamb.
24 Mataifa bhibeta kugenda kwa mwanga bhwa mji obhu. Bhafalme bha dunia bhibeta kuleta fahari sya bhene mugati muake.
The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
25 Miliangu jhiake pamusi, na pibetalepi kudendibhwa wakati bhwa pamusi, na pibetalepi kujha ni pakilu pala.
Its gates will in no way be shut by day (for there will be no night there),
26 Bhibeta kuleta fahari ni heshima jha mataifa mugati mwa muene,
and they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it so that they may enter.
27 na kijhelepi kichafu kya kibeta kujhingila mugati mwa muene. Wala jhejhioha jha ibeta kubhomba lijambo lyolioha lya soni au udesi ibeta lepi kujhingila, bali ndo bhala tu ambabho mahina gha bhene ghajhandikibhu mu kitabu kya uzima kya mwanakondoo.
There will in no way enter into it anything profane, or one who causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
