Okubikkulirwa 21
1 Awo ne ndaba eggulu eriggya n’ensi empya. Eggulu eryasooka n’ensi eyasooka byali biweddewo nga n’ennyanja tekyaliwo.
And I saw a heaven new and an earth new. for the first heaven and the first earth (had passed away, *N(k)O*) and the sea not is any longer.
2 Ne ndaba ekibuga ekitukuvu Yerusaalemi ekiggya nga kikka okuva ewa Katonda mu ggulu, nga kiri ng’omugole bw’abeera ku mbaga ey’obugole bwe, ng’ayonjereddwa bbaawe.
And (I myself John *K*) the city holy Jerusalem new I saw coming down out of heaven from God prepared as a bride adorned for the husband of her.
3 Ne mpulira eddoboozi ery’omwanguka nga lyogera okuva mu ntebe ey’obwakabaka nti, “Laba eyeekaalu ya Katonda kaakano eri mu bantu, anaabeeranga nabo era banaabeeranga bantu be, Katonda yennyini anaaberanga nabo, era anaabeeranga Katonda waabwe.
And I heard a voice great from the (throne *N(K)O*) saying: Behold the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and He will tabernacle with them. and they themselves (peoples *NK(o)*) of Him will be, and Himself God with them will be [as] their God.
4 Alisangula amaziga mu maaso gaabwe, olwo nga tewakyali kufa, wadde ennaku, wadde okukaaba, wadde okulumwa kubanga byonna ebyasooka nga biweddewo.”
And He will wipe away (the God *K*) every tear (from *N(k)O*) the eyes of them, and death not will be any longer nor mourning nor crying nor pain not they will be any longer; because the former things have passed away.
5 Oyo eyali atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka n’agamba nti, “Laba, ebintu byonna mbizzizza buggya.” Era n’aŋŋamba nti, “Wandiika bino, kubanga bigambo bya bwesigwa era bya mazima!”
And said the [One] sitting on (the throne; *N(k)O*) Behold new I make all things. And He says (to me: *KO*) do write [this] because these the words faithful and true are.
6 N’aŋŋamba nti, “Bituukiridde, Nze Alufa era nze Omega, Entandikwa era Enkomerero. Buli alumwa ennyonta ndimuwa okunywa ku nsulo ez’amazzi amalamu, ag’obuwa.
And He said to me; (It has been done! *N(k)O*) I myself (am *NK(o)*) the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I myself to the [one] thirsting I will give of the spring of the water of life freely.
7 Buli awangula alifuna ebyo byonna ng’omugabo, era nze nnaaberanga Katonda we, naye anaabanga mwana wange.
The [one] overcoming he will inherit (these [things], *N(k)O*) and I will be to him God, and he himself will be My (*k*) son.
8 Naye abo ababi n’abatakkiriza n’abagwagwa, n’abassi, n’abenzi, n’abalogo n’abasinza ebifaananyi, n’abalimba bonna, omugabo gwabwe kuliba kuzikirizibwa mu nnyanja ey’omuliro ogwaka ne salufa. Okwo kwe kufa okwokubiri.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
(*no*) But to [the] cowardly and to [the] unbelieving (and to sinners *O*) and having made themselves abominable and to murderers and to the sexually immoral and (to sorcerers *N(k)O*) and to idolaters and to all liars, the portion of them [is] in the lake which is burning with fire and with brimstone, which is the death second. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
9 Awo omu ku bamalayika omusanvu abaali bamaze okuyiwa ebibya ebyalimu ebibonoobono omusanvu eby’enkomerero n’ajja n’aŋŋamba nti, “Jjangu nkulage omugole w’Omwana gw’Endiga.”
And came (to me *K*) one of the seven angels who are having the seven bowls (which are being full *N(k)O*) of the seven plagues last and spoke with me saying; Come here, I will show you the bride the wife of the Lamb.
10 N’antwala ku ntikko y’olusozi olunene era oluwanvu mu kwolesebwa; n’andaga ekibuga Yerusaalemi ekitukuvu nga kikka okuva mu ggulu ewa Katonda,
And he carried away me in [the] Spirit to a mountain great and high and he showed me the city (great *K*) holy Jerusalem descending out of heaven from God,
11 nga kyonna kijjudde ekitiibwa kya Katonda era nga kimasamasa ng’ejjinja ery’omuwendo omungi, erya yasepi, eritangalijja.
having the glory of God. (and *k*) The radiance of it [was] like as a stone most precious like as a stone jasper being clear as crystal
12 Bbugwe waakyo yali mugazi era nga mugulumivu, ng’aliko emiryango kkumi n’ebiri era nga gikuumibwa bamalayika kkumi na babiri, n’amannya g’ebika ekkumi n’ebibiri ebya Isirayiri nga gawandiikibbwa ku miryango egyo.
having (then *k*) a wall great and high, (having *N(k)O*) gates twelve and at (the gates *NK(o)*) angels twelve, and names inscribed, which are the names of the twelve tribes (of the *k*) of [the] sons of Israel;
13 Ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba kwaliko emiryango esatu, ne ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono nga kuliko emiryango esatu, ne ku luuyi olw’obukiikaddyo nga kuliko emiryango esatu, era ne ku luuyi olw’obugwanjuba nga kuliko emiryango esatu.
On ([the] east *NK(o)*) [were] gates three, (and *no*) on [the] north gates three, (and *no*) on [the] south gates three, and on [the] west gates three.
14 Bbugwe yaliko amayinja ag’omusingi kkumi n’abiri ag’abatume b’Omwana gw’Endiga.
And the wall of the city (had *N(k)O*) foundations twelve and (on them *N(k)O*) (twelve *no*) names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 Malayika eyali ayogera nange yali akutte mu mukono gwe omuggo ogwa zaabu ogupimisibwa, apime ekibuga, emiryango gyakyo era ne bbugwe waakyo.
And the [one] speaking with me he had (a measuring *NO*) reed golden so that he may measure the city and the gates of it and the wall of it.
16 Ekibuga kyali kyenkanankana enjuuyi zonna, n’obuwanvu nabwo nga bwenkana n’obugazi awamu n’obukiika. Byonna byali bipima kilomita enkumi bbiri mu ebikumi bina, buli kimu nga kyenkanankana ne kinnaakyo.
And the city foursquare lies, and the length of it (so great is *K*) [the] same as also the width. And he measured the city with the reed at (stadia *NK(o)*) twelve thousand (twelve [was] *O*) the length and the breadth and the height of it equal are.
17 Ate n’apima ne bbugwe waakyo ne kiweza mita nkaaga mu mukaaga ng’ekipimo ky’omuntu bwe kiri ng’apimye, awamu n’eky’abamalayika.
And he measured the wall of it (one hundred forty four *NK(o)*) cubits, [the] measure of man that is of the angel.
18 Bbugwe waakyo yali azimbiddwa n’amayinja agayesipi nga n’ekibuga kya zaabu omulongoose nga kitangalijja ng’endabirwamu ennungi.
And (was *ko*) the structure of the wall of it [was] jasper, and the city gold pure (like *N(k)O*) as glass clear.
19 Emisingi gya bbugwe w’ekibuga nga giyooyooteddwa n’amayinja ag’omuwendo omungi ennyo aga buli ngeri. Omusingi ogusooka gwayooyootebwa n’amayinja aga yasepi, ogwokubiri aga safiro, ogwokusatu aga kalukedoni, ogwokuna aga nnawandagala,
(and *ko*) the foundations of the wall of the city with every stone precious adorned. the foundation first jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
20 ogwokutaano aga sadonukisi, ogw’omukaaga sadiyo, ogw’omusanvu aga kerusoliso, ogw’omunaana aga berulo, ogw’omwenda aga topazi, ogw’ekkumi aga kerusoperaso, ogw’ekkumi n’ogumu aga kuwakinso, n’ogw’ekkumi n’ebiri aga amesusito.
the fifth sardonyx, the sixth (sardius, *N(k)O*) the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.
21 Ate emiryango ekkumi n’ebiri gyakolebwa n’amayinja ag’omuwendo aga luulu ennungi kkumi n’abiri, nga buli mulyango gukoleddwa n’ejjinja lya luulu limu. Ate lwo oluguudo olunene olw’ekibuga lwali lwa zaabu ennungi etangalijja ng’endabirwamu.
And the twelve gates [were] twelve pearls. each one each of the gates was of one pearl. and the street of the city gold pure as glass (translucent. *N(k)O*)
22 Mu kibuga ekyo saalabamu yeekaalu, Mukama Katonda Ayinzabyonna awamu n’Omwana gw’Endiga, bo ye yeekaalu yaakyo.
And temple not I saw in it; for the Lord God Almighty temple of it is and the Lamb.
23 Era ekibuga ekyo tekyetaaga njuba wadde omwezi okukyakira, kubanga ekitiibwa kya Katonda kye kikimulisa, era Omwana gw’Endiga ye ttabaaza yaakyo.
And the city no need has of the sun nor of the moon that they may shine (in *k*) in it; the for glory of God enlightened it, and the lamp of it [is] the Lamb.
24 Ekitangaala kyakyo kye kinaamulisanga amawanga ag’omu nsi, era abafuzi ab’omu nsi balijja ne bakireetera ekitiibwa.
And will walk the nations (those being saved *K*) (through the light *N(k)O*) of it and the kings of the earth bring (the *NK(O)*) glory (and the honor *K*) (of them *NK(O)*) into it.
25 Emiryango gyakyo tegiggalwenga emisana, era yo teriba kiro.
And the gates of it certainly not may be shut by day; night for not will be there.
26 Kirifuna ekitiibwa n’ettendo eby’amawanga.
And they will bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it.
27 Tewali ekitali kirongoofu ekirikkirizibwa okuyingira mu kyo, wadde abo abatambulira mu mpisa ezitali nnongoofu oba abalimba, wabula abalikibeeramu, beebo bokka, amannya gaabwe agaawandiikibwa mu kitabo eky’obulamu eky’Omwana gw’Endiga.
And certainly not may enter into it anything (unsanctified *N(k)O*) and (the [one] *no*) (practicing *N(k)O*) abomination and a lie only except those written in the book of life of the Lamb.
