< Okubikkulirwa 13 >
1 Ne guyimirira ku lubalama lw’ennyanja. Awo ne ndaba ekisolo ekikambwe nga kiva mu nnyanja, nga kirina emitwe musanvu n’amayembe kkumi era nga kirina engule kkumi ku mayembe gaakyo, era ku buli mutwe nga kuwandiikiddwako amannya agavvoola Katonda.
And he took his place on the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns ten crowns, and on his heads unholy names.
2 Ekisolo ekyo kye nalaba kyali kifaanana ng’engo naye ng’ebigere byakyo biri ng’eby’eddubu, kyokka ng’akamwa kaakyo kali ng’ak’empologoma. Ogusota ne guwa ekisolo ekyo amaanyi gaagwo awamu n’entebe yaakyo ey’obufuzi era n’obuyinza bungi.
And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power and his seat and great authority.
3 Awo ogumu ku mitwe gyagwo gwali gufumitiddwa nga gufunye ekiwundu ekyali kigenda okugutta, naye ekiwundu ekyali kigenda okugutta ne kiwona. Ensi yonna ne yeewuunya era abantu ne bagoberera ekisolo ekyo.
And I saw one of his heads as if it had been given a death-wound; and his death-wound was made well: and all the earth was wondering at the beast.
4 Ne basinza ogusota olw’okuwa ekisolo ekikambwe obuyinza obwenkaniddaawo, era n’ekisolo ne bakisinza, nga bagamba nti, “Ani akisinga amaanyi era ani ayinza okulwana nakyo?”
And they gave worship to the dragon, because he gave authority to the beast; and worshipping the beast, they said, Who is like the beast? and who is able to go to war with him?
5 Awo ekisolo ne kikkirizibwa okwogera ebintu eby’okwegulumiza n’eby’obuvvoozi era ne kiweebwa n’obuyinza okumala emyezi amakumi ana mu ebiri.
And there was given to him a mouth to say words of pride against God; and there was given to him authority to go on for forty-two months.
6 Ekisolo ne kitandika okuvvoola Katonda n’obutayogera birungi ku linnya lye, ne ku kifo kye mw’abeera, ne kivuma n’abo ababeera mu ggulu.
And his mouth was open to say evil against God, and against his name and his Tent, even against those who are in heaven.
7 Ne kiweebwa obuyinza okulwanyisa abatukuvu n’okubawangula era n’okufuga buli kika, na buli ggwanga, na buli lulimi, na buli nsi.
And it was given to him to make war on the saints and to overcome them: and there was given to him authority over every tribe and people and language and nation.
8 Era abantu bonna abaaliwo okuva ku kutondebwa kw’ensi, abatawandiikiddwa mu kitabo eky’Obulamu eky’Omwana gw’Endiga eyattibwa balisinza ekisolo ekyo.
And all who are on the earth will give him worship, everyone whose name has not been from the first in the book of life of the Lamb who was put to death.
If any man has ears, let him give ear.
10 Buli ow’okutwalibwa mu busibe wa kusiba. Era buli ow’okuttibwa n’ekitala, wa kuttibwa na kitala. Kubanga awo okugumiikiriza n’okukkiriza kw’abatukuvu we kutegeererwa.
If any man sends others into prison, into prison he will go: if any man puts to death with the sword, with the sword will he be put to death. Here is the quiet strength and the faith of the saints.
11 Awo ne ndyoka ndaba ekisolo ekikambwe ekirala nga kiva mu ttaka, nga kirina amayembe abiri agali ng’ag’akaliga akato naye ng’eddoboozi lyakyo liri ng’ery’ogusota.
And I saw another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and his voice was like that of a dragon.
12 Ekisolo ekyo ne kikozesa obuyinza obwa kiri ekyasooka ekyalina ekiwundu ekyawonyezebwa era ekyasinzibwa ensi yonna.
And he makes use of all the authority of the first beast before his eyes. And he makes the earth and those who are in it give worship to the first beast, whose death-wound was made well.
13 Ne kikola ebyamagero ebyewuunyisa, gamba ng’okuwandula ennimi ez’omuliro ku nsi nga ziva mu bbanga nga buli omu alaba.
And he does great signs, even making fire come down from heaven on the earth before the eyes of men.
14 Olw’okuweebwa obuyinza okukola ebyamagero ebyo mu linnya ly’ekisolo kiri ekyasooka, abantu bangi baalimbibwalimbibwa. Ekisolo ekyo ne kiragira abantu ab’oku nsi okukola ekifaananyi eky’ekisolo kiri ekyasooka ekyalina ekiwundu eky’ekitala ekyawona.
And those who are on the earth are turned from the true way by him through the signs which he was given power to do before the beast; giving orders to those who are on the earth to make an image to the beast, who was wounded by the sword, and came to life.
15 Ekisolo ekyo ne kiweebwa okufuuwa omukka ogw’obulamu mu kifaananyi ky’ekisolo ekyo kyogere, era ekifaananyi ekyo ne kittisa abantu bangi abaagaana okukisinza.
And he had power to give breath to the image of the beast, so that words might come from the image of the beast, and that he might have all those who did not give worship to the image of the beast put to death.
16 Awo ekisolo ne kiragira bonna, abakulu n’abato, abagagga n’abaavu, ab’eddembe n’abaddu, bateekebweko akabonero ku mukono ogwa ddyo oba mu kyenyi,
And he gives to all, small and great, the poor and those who have wealth, the free and those who are not free, a mark on their right hand or on their brows;
17 nga tewali n’omu akkirizibwa okugula oba okutunda ekintu kyonna, nga talina kabonero ak’erinnya ly’ekisolo ekyo oba ennamba yaakyo.
So that no man might be able to do trade but he who has the mark, even the name of the beast or the number of his name.
18 Ekyo kyetaaga amagezi: abo abasobola okutegeera amakulu g’omuwendo guno babale ennamba eri ku kisolo kubanga gwe muwendo gw’omuntu. Omuwendo ogwo guli lukaaga mu nkaaga mu mukaaga.
Here is wisdom. He who has knowledge let him get the number of the beast; because it is the number of a man: and his number is Six hundred and sixty-six.
