Okubikkulirwa 22
1 Awo malayika n’andaga omugga ogw’amazzi ag’obulamu agamasamasa ng’endabirwamu, nga gukulukuta okuva mu ntebe ey’obwakabaka eya Katonda, n’ey’Omwana gw’Endiga,
Then the angel showed me a pure river of the water of life, as bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 nga gukulukutira wakati mu luguudo olunene. Ku mbalama zombi ez’omugga kwaliko emiti egy’obulamu, gumu ku buli ludda, egibala ebibala ekkumi n’ebibiri era nga buli mwezi kubeerako ebibala eby’engeri endala; n’amakoola gaagwo nga gakozesebwa ng’eddagala okuwonya amawanga.
In the middle of the city street, and on each side of the river, is the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.
3 Mu kibuga ekyo tewalibaayo kikolimo nate. Entebe ey’obwakabaka eya Katonda n’ey’Omwana gw’Endiga ziribeera eyo, n’abaddu be balimuweereza,
No longer will there be anything accursed, but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him.
4 era banaalabanga amaaso ge, n’erinnya lye liriwandiikibwa mu byenyi byabwe.
They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.
5 Teribaayo kiro, noolwekyo ettabaaza oba enjuba tebiryetaagibwa, kubanga Mukama Katonda y’anaabaakiranga era banaafuganga emirembe n’emirembe. (aiōn g165)
There will be no night there, and they will not need any lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light, and they will reign forever and ever. (aiōn g165)
6 Awo malayika n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ebigambo bino bituufu, bya mazima. Era Katonda w’emyoyo gya bannabbi, atumye malayika we okulaga abaddu be ebyo ebiteekwa okubaawo amangu.”
Then the angel said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his servants what must soon take place.
7 “Era laba, nzija mangu. Alina omukisa oyo akwata ebigambo by’obunnabbi ebiri mu kitabo kino.”
“Behold, I am coming quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.”
8 Nze Yokaana nalaba era ne mpulira ebintu ebyo. Era bwe nabiraba ne mbiwulira ne ngwa wansi okusinza malayika oyo eyabindaga;
I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me.
9 kyokka ye n’aŋŋamba nti, “Tokola kintu ekyo kubanga nange ndi muddu nga ggwe era nga baganda bo bannabbi bwe bali, awamu n’abo bonna abakwata ebigambo ebiwandiikiddwa mu kitabo kino. Ssinza Katonda.”
But he said to me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant of yoʋrs, and of yoʋr brothers the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.”
10 Awo n’aŋŋamba nti, “Ebyo by’owandiise eby’obunnabbi tobikuuma nga bya kyama kubanga biri kumpi okutuukirira.
Then he said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is near.
11 Era ekiseera ekyo bwe kirituuka, buli akola ebitali bya butuukirivu alyeyongera okukola ebitali bya butuukirivu, era n’omugwagwa alyeyongera okugwagwawala, kyokka abatuukirivu balyeyongera okuba abatuukirivu, n’abatukuvu balyeyongera okuba abatukuvu.
Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy.”
12 “Laba, nzija mangu nsasule buli omu ng’ebikolwa bye bwe biri.
“Behold, I am coming quickly, and my reward is with me, to repay each person according to their works.
13 Nze Alufa era nze Omega, Owoolubereberye era Asembayo, Entandikwa era Enkomerero.
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”
14 “Balina omukisa abo abayoza ebyambalo byabwe, baliweebwa obuyinza okuyingira mu miryango gy’ekibuga ne balya ne ku bibala ebiva ku muti ogw’obulamu.
Blessed are those who keep his commandments, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter the city by its gates.
15 Ebweru w’ekibuga y’ebeera embwa, n’abalogo, n’abenzi, n’abassi, n’abasinza bakatonda abalala n’abo bonna abaagala era abakola eby’obulimba.
Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the fornicators, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
16 “Nze Yesu, ow’omu kikolo era ow’omu lulyo lwa Dawudi, ntumye malayika wange gye muli okubuulira Ekkanisa ebigambo bino. Nze Mmunyeenye eyaka ey’Enkya.”
“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, the bright morning star.”
17 Omwoyo n’Omugole boogera nti, “Jjangu.” Na buli awulira ayogere nti, “Jjangu.” Buli alumwa ennyonta ajje, buli ayagala ajje anywe ku mazzi ag’obulamu ag’obuwa.
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” Let anyone who hears say, “Come.” Let anyone who is thirsty come. And let anyone who wishes to do so take the water of life freely.
18 Ntegeeza buli omu awulira ebigambo eby’obunnabbi ebiri mu kitabo: Omuntu yenna alibyongerako, Katonda alimwongerako ebibonoobono ebiwandiikiddwa mu kitabo kino.
I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to them, may God add to him the plagues that are written in this book.
19 Era omuntu yenna alikendeeza ku bigambo by’obunnabbi ebiri mu kitabo kino, Mukama alimuggyako omugabo gwe ku muti ogw’obulamu ne mu kibuga ekyo ekitukuvu ekiwandiikiddwako mu kitabo kino.
If anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, may God take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are written about in this book.
20 Oyo ayogedde ebintu bino agamba nti, “Weewaawo nzija mangu!” Amiina! Jjangu Mukama waffe Yesu!
He who testifies to these things says, “Surely I am coming quickly.” Amen. So shall it be. Come, Lord Jesus!
21 Ekisa kya Mukama waffe Yesu Kristo kibeerenga ne bonna. Amiina.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with all the saints. Amen.
