Insinulo 17
1 Limwina iñiloi ku a kwana iyanza ni lyonke libakwete tuhambwe tukwana iyanza ni tobele imi nikuti kwangu, “Wize, Kani kutondenze kunyanseha kwa musangu mukando yo wikele ha menzi mangi.
One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, “Come here. I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters,
2 Njikwali uko ba busi be inkanda ba bapangi busangu. Nji waine ya kwe ya busangu kuti bantu be inkanda bakolwa.”
with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality. Those who dwell in the earth were made drunken with the wine of her sexual immorality.”
3 Linu iñiloi chilya ni hinda Muluhuho kwi halaupa, imi chinabona mwanakazi wikele ha chibatana chisubila chibe zwile mazina abulyansi. Chibatana chibena mitwi ikwana iyanza ni wonke ni maziya akwana ikumi.
He carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 Mwanakizi aba zwete mwa pepulu ni kusubila aba kabiswe nigauda, mabwe asepahala, ni bulungu. Aba kwete mwiyanza lyakwe inkomoki yegauda izwile zintu zisazuweki sinte ni kusajolola kwa busangu bwakwe.
The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of the sexual immorality of the earth.
5 He impata yakwe haba ñoletwe izina lina intoloko ye inkunutu: “Babilona mukando, nyina wa busangu ni zintu zisazuweki za hansi.”
And on her forehead a name was written, “MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.”
6 China bona kuti mwanakazi aba koletwe cha malaha aba zumine imi ni malaha abo ba basukulukili Jesu. Hani mubona, nibakomokwa kukando.
I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. When I saw her, I wondered with great amazement.
7 Kono iñiloi chilyati kwatu, “Chinzi hokomokwa? Kani kutolekele intaluso ya mwanakazi ni chibatana chi muhindite, chibatana china mitwi ikwana iyaza ni yobele ni maziya e ikumi.
The angel said to me, “Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.
8 Chibatana cho baboni ku chibali kwina, hanu kachikwina, kono chihafuhi nikwiza kuzwililila mwilindi lisena manimani. Linu ka chizwile habusu ni kusinya. Abo bahala hansi, nabo mazina abo kana aba ñolwa Mwimbuka ya Buhalo kuzwa matangilo e inkanda-kabakomokwe chiba bona chibatana chibali kwinako, ka chikwina hanu, kono chi china hafuhi ni kwiza. (Abyssos g12)
The beast that you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss and to go into destruction. Those who dwell on the earth and whose names have not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world will marvel when they see that the beast was, and is not, and shall be present. (Abyssos g12)
9 Iyi i sumpa munahano wina butali. Mitwi ikwana iyanza lyonke ni yobele ziwulu zikwana iyanza nizobele hekele mwanaki.
Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits.
10 Kwina hape ba babusi bakwana iyanza ni bobele. Ba busi bakwana iyanza ba bawi, yenke kwena, imi zumwi keni kwiza; chinasika, uwola kushala bulyo inako zana.
They are seven kings. Five have fallen, the one is, and the other has not yet come. When he comes, he must continue a little while.
11 Chibatana chi balikwina kwateni, kono ka chikwina hanu, nacho bulyo chibusi chikwana iyanza ni zotatwe, kono nachocha zimwi zibusi zikwana iyanza ni zobele, imi chikaya ku kusinyeha.
The beast that was, and is not, is himself also an eighth, and is of the seven; and he goes to destruction.
12 Maziya akwana ikumi obani ba busi baseni kutambula mubuso, kono ka batambule buyendisi cha bu busi che inhola hamwina ni chibatana.
The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour.
13 Izi zina muzezo wonke, imi zitambika kukola ni buyendisi kuchibatana.
These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
14 Kaba buse inkondo kulwisanisa Ingu, kono Ingu kazikome kakuti njiye Simwine uba simwine ni Mubusi wa babusi-imi iye wina niba sumpitwe, baketetwe, ni basepahala.”
These will war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them, for he is Lord of lords and King of kings; and those who are with him are called, chosen, and faithful.”
15 Iñiloi chilyati kwangu, Menzi obaboni, aho hekele ihule, bantu, inkunga, inkanda, ni mishobo.
He said to me, “The waters which you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.
16 Maziya ene ikumi oba boni-izo ni chibatana kazi holofaze ihule, kazi mushubule ni mapunu, kaba sinye inyama yakwe, kaba muhise ni kumanisiliza cha mulilo.
The ten horns which you saw, they and the beast will hate the prostitute, will make her desolate, will strip her naked, will eat her flesh, and will burn her utterly with fire.
17 Kakuti Ireeza aba zibiki muinkulo zabo kuhinda mulelo wakwe cha kuzuminzana kuha ziho kuchibatana kuti manzwi a Ireeza ezuzilizwe.
For God has put in their hearts to do what he has in mind, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God should be accomplished.
18 Mwanaki yoba boni nji itolopo inkando iyendisa hewulu lya babusi bahansi.”
The woman whom you saw is the great city which reigns over the kings of the earth.”
