Okubikkulirwa 7
1 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo, ne ndaba bamalayika bana nga bayimiridde ku njuyi ennya ez’ensi, nga bakutte empewo ennya ez’ensi zireme okukunta, waleme kubaawo mpewo ekunta ku nsi, wadde ku nnyanja wadde ku muti gwonna.
After this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that no wind should blow on the earth, or on the sea, or upon any tree.
2 Ne ndaba malayika omulala ng’ava ebuvanjuba ng’akutte akabonero k’envumbo aka Katonda omulamu, n’ayogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka ng’agamba bamalayika abana abaali baweereddwa obuyinza okwonoona ensi n’ennyanja nti,
And I saw another angel ascend from the sunrising, having the seal of the living God: and he cried with a great voice to the four angels, to whom it was given to hurt the earth and the sea,
3 “Temukola kintu kyonna, ekinaayonoona ensi, n’ennyanja oba emiti, okutuusa nga tumaze okuteeka akabonero k’envumbo ka Katonda akakulu ku byenyi by’abaweereza ba Katonda waffe.”
saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we shall have sealed the servants of our God on their foreheads.
4 Awo ne mpulira omuwendo gw’abo abaateekebwako akabonero k’envumbo nga baali emitwalo kkumi n’ena mu enkumi nnya okuva mu bika ekkumi n’ebibiri ebya Isirayiri.
And I heard the number of them which were sealed, a hundred and forty and four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel.
5 Ab’omu kika kya Yuda omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Lewubeeni omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Gaadi omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri,
Of the tribe of Judah [were] sealed twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand:
6 ab’omu kika kya Aseri omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Nafutaali omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Manaase omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri,
Of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand:

Of the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Levi twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand:
8 ab’omu kika kya Zebbulooni omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Yusufu omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri, ab’omu kika kya Benyamini omutwalo gumu mu enkumi bbiri. Abo be baateekebwako akabonero k’envumbo.
Of the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand: Of the tribe of Benjamin [were] sealed twelve thousand.
9 Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo ne ndaba, era laba, ekibiina ky’abantu ekinene ennyo nga tebasoboka na kubalika, nga bava mu buli nsi na buli kika, na buli ggwanga na buli lulimi, nga bayimiridde mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka ne mu maaso g’Omwana gw’Endiga nga bambadde ebyambalo ebyeru nga balina n’enkindu mu ngalo zaabwe.
After these things I saw, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could number, out of every nation and of [all] tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, arrayed in white robes, and palms in their hands;
10 Ne boogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nga bagamba nti, “Obulokozi bwa Katonda waffe atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka era bwa Mwana gw’Endiga.”
and they cry with a great voice, saying, Salvation unto our God which sitteth on the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 Awo bamalayika bonna ne bayimirira nga beetoolodde entebe ey’obwakabaka n’abakadde era n’ebiramu ebina, ne bavuunama mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka ng’ebyenyi byabwe biri wansi ne basinza Katonda.
And all the angels were standing round about the throne, and [about] the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Ne bayimba nti, “Amiina! Okutenderezebwa, n’ekitiibwa, n’amagezi, n’okwebazibwa, n’ettendo, n’obuyinza, n’amaanyi, bibe eri Katonda waffe emirembe n’emirembe. Amiina!” (aiōn g165)
saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, [be] unto our God for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
13 Awo omu ku bakadde n’ambuuza nti, “Bano abambadde ebyambalo ebyeru obamanyi, era omanyi gye bava?”
And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, These which are arrayed in the white robes, who are they, and whence came they?
14 Ne nziramu nti. “Mukama wange, gw’omanyi.” N’aŋŋamba nti, “Bano be baayita mu kubonaabona okunene, ne bayoza ebyambalo byabwe ne babitukuza mu musaayi gw’Omwana gw’Endiga.
And I say unto him, My lord, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which come out of the great tribulation, and they washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Kyebavudde “babeera wano mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka eya Katonda nga bamusinza emisana n’ekiro mu Yeekaalu ye. Oyo atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka, anaaberanga nabo ng’abalabirira.
Therefore are they before the throne of God; and they serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall spread his tabernacle over them.
16 Tebaliddayo kulumwa njala wadde ennyonta, newaakubadde omusana okubookya wadde ekyokya ekirala kyonna;
They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun strike upon them, nor any heat:
17 kubanga Omwana gw’Endiga ayimiridde mu maaso g’entebe ey’obwakabaka, y’anaabeeranga omusumba waabwe era y’anaabakulemberanga okubatwala eri ensulo ez’amazzi ag’obulamu. Era Katonda alisangula buli zziga mu maaso gaabwe.”
for the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall be their shepherd, and shall guide them unto fountains of waters of life: and God shall wipe away every tear from their eyes.
