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 this I looked, and behold, a door was standing open in heaven! And the voice I had previously heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show yoʋ what must take place after this.”
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, there was a throne in heaven, with one sitting on the throne,
3 Eyali agituddeko yali ayakaayakana ng’amayinja ag’omuwendo omungi aga yasepi ne sadio; era ng’entebe eyo yeetooloddwa musoke ng’ayakaayakana nga zumaliidi.
like jasper and carnelian in appearance. And around the throne was a rainbow that looked like 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.
Surrounding the throne were twenty-four other thrones, and sitting on the thrones were the twenty-four elders. They were clothed in white garments and had golden crowns on their heads.
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.
From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder, and there were seven flaming torches burning before the throne; these 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.
Also before the throne was something like a sea of glass that looked like crystal. Around the throne on each side were four living creatures, full of eyes in front and in back.
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.
The first living creature was like a lion, the second living creature was like a calf, the third living creature had the face of a man, and the fourth living creature was like an eagle in flight.
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,
Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around and within. Day and night they never stop saying, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and who is and who is to come.”
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 whenever the living creatures give glory, honor, and thanks to him who sits on the throne, who lives forever and ever, (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 fall down before him who sits on the throne and worship him who lives forever and ever. They cast their crowns before the throne and say, (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.”
“Yoʋ are worthy, our Lord and God, the Holy One, to receive glory, honor, and power; for yoʋ created all things, and by yoʋr will they came into existence and were created.”
