Okubikkulirwa 4
1 Laba, oluvannyuma lw’ebyo ne ndaba oluggi oluggule mu ggulu, era ne mpulira n’eddoboozi lye limu lye nawulira olubereberye eryali livuga ng’eryekkondere nga liŋŋamba nti, “Yambuka wano nkulage ebyo ebiteekwa okubaawo oluvannyuma lwa biri.”
After these things I saw, and behold, a door was opened in the heaven: and the first voice I heard was as of a trumpet speaking with me; saying; Come up hither, and I will show thee the things which it behooves to come to pass after these.
2 Amangwago, nga ndi mu mwoyo, laba, ne ndaba entebe ey’obwakabaka ng’etegekeddwa mu ggulu, ne ku ntebe eyo nga kuliko atuddeko.
Immediately I was in the Spirit: and behold, a throne was set in the heaven, and on the throne one sitting,
3 Eyali agituddeko yali ayakaayakana ng’amayinja ag’omuwendo omungi aga yasepi ne sadio; era ng’entebe eyo yeetooloddwa musoke ng’ayakaayakana nga zumaliidi.
and the one sitting was in appearance like unto a jasper and a sardius stone: and a rainbow was around about the throne, in appearance like unto an emerald.
4 Entebe ey’obwakabaka yali yeetooloddwa entebe endala amakumi abiri mu nnya nga zituuliddwako abakadde amakumi abiri mu bana, bonna nga bambadde engoye enjeru nga balina engule eza zaabu ku mitwe gyabwe.
And around about the throne were twenty-four thrones: and on the thrones twenty-four elders are sitting, clothed in white garments; and upon their heads golden crowns.
5 Mu ntebe eyo ey’obwakabaka ne muvaamu okumyansa n’amaloboozi n’okubwatuka. Mu maaso g’entebe eyo waaliwo ettabaaza ezaaka musanvu, nga gy’emyoyo omusanvu egya Katonda.
And from the throne lightnings and voices and thunders are going out; and seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God:
6 Ne mu maaso g’entebe eyo waaliwo ekiri ng’ennyanja ey’endabirwamu, ekifaanana nga kulusitalo. Waaliwo ebiramu bina ebijjudde amaaso mu bwenyi n’emabega waabyo nga biri wakati w’entebe ey’obwakabaka n’okugyetooloola.
and before the throne a glassy sea like crystal; and in the midst of the throne, and round about the throne, are four living creatures filled with eyes in front and in the rear.
7 Ekisooka ku biramu bino kyali ng’empologoma, ekyokubiri nga kifaanana ng’ennyana, n’ekyokusatu kyalina amaaso ng’ag’omuntu, n’ekyokuna kyali ng’empungu, ebuuka.
And the first living creature was like unto a lion, and the second living creature was like unto a bullock, and the third living creature having the face as of a man, and the fourth living creature was like unto a flying eagle.
8 Buli kimu ku biramu bino ebina kyalina ebiwaawaatiro mukaaga nga bijjudde amaaso enjuuyi zonna ne wansi. Era buli lunaku emisana n’ekiro, awatali kuwummula, nga bigamba nti,
And the four living creatures having six wings, one opposite one of them; filled with eyes without and within; and they cease not day and night, saying; Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Omnipotent, who was, and who is, and who is the one coming.
9 Era ebiramu ebyo ebina, buli lwe byawanga ekitiibwa n’ettendo n’okwebaza, Oyo atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka, abeera omulamu emirembe gyonna, (aiōn g165)
And when the living creatures shall give glory and honor and thanksgiving to the one sitting upon the throne, who lives unto the ages of the ages, (aiōn g165)
10 abakadde amakumi abiri mu abana ne bavuunama mu maaso g’Oyo atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka, omulamu emirembe n’emirembe, ne bamusinza. Ne bateeka engule zaabwe mu maaso g’entebe eyo, nga bwe bagamba nti, (aiōn g165)
the twenty-four elders will fall down before the one sitting upon the throne, and will worship Him who lives unto the ages of the ages, and will cast their crowns before the throne, (aiōn g165)
11 “Mukama waffe era Katonda waffe, osaanidde okuweebwanga ekitiibwa n’ettendo n’obuyinza, kubanga gwe watonda ebintu byonna era byonna byatondebwa ku lulwo era gwe wasiima okubiteekawo.”
saying, Thou art worthy, O Lord truly our God, to receive glory and honor and power: because thou hast created all things, and through thy will they were, and were created.
