< Nng'ibhulo 21 >
1 Alapu, gunikubhwene kunnungu kwa ambi, na shilambolyo sha ambi. Kunnungu kwa bhukala kula, na shilambolyo sha bhukala shila iobhile, wala bhaali jikapaliji kabhili.
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 Gunishibhwene shilambo sha ukonjelo, ku Yelushalemu kwa ambi, kulituluka kukopoka kunnungu kwa a Nnungu, shieleywe ukoto mbuti mwali jwa shilombani, awashiywe kupinga aimane naka mbujegwe.
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 Na gumbilikene lilobhe likulungwa kukopoka ku shitengu sha ukulungwa lilinkuti, “Nnole! Ndamo ja a Nnungu jili pamo na bhandunji. Shibhatende ndamo jabho pamo na bhanganyabho, shibhabhanganje bhandu bhabho, nabhalabho shibhabhe a Nnungu bhabhonji.
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 Bhenebho shibhaaungutanje minyoi jabhonji jowe, pabha shiwo shikapagwa kabhili, wala kwiigutanjila, wala ililo wala mboteko, pabha ga bhukala gapitile.”
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things have passed away.
5 Na bhene bhatemi pa shitengu sha ukulungwa bhala gubhashite, “Nnole, ngunaatenda yowe kubha ya ambi.” Kabhili gubhamalanjile, “Nnjandishe kuti, gene malobhe gano, ni gaakulupalika na ga kweli!”
And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said to me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6 Kungai gubhamalanjile, Gamaliile! Nne Alpha na Omega, yani, Nantando na Mpelo. Akwete nnjotajo, shinimpe mashi ga papila, ga shinyenyei sha mashi ga gumi, gwayoyo.
And he said to me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to him that is thirsty of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 Jwene shaakombolejo, shaapate yene mboka yowei, na nne shimme a Nnungu bhakwe, na jwalakwe shaabhe mwanangu.
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 Ikabheje bhandunji bha bhoga na bhakaakulupalilanga, na bhaatendanga ya nnjimwa, na bhaabhulaganga, na bha labhalabha, na bhaabhi, na bhakwiitindibhalilanga yanamu, na bha unami bhowe, ndamo jabhonji shijibhe nnitanda likolela moto gwa bhonga, shenesho ni shiwo sha bhili. (Limnē Pyr )
But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and immoral persons, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. (Limnē Pyr )
9 Na malaika jumo, munkumbi gwa shabha bhakwetenje mikungu shabha, jagumbele mambukute shabha ga kumpelo bhala, nigwajile malanjila, “Nnjiye akuno, ninnangule mwali nkulombwa, nkagwe Mwana Ngondolo!”
And there came to me one of the seven angels who had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come, I will show thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife.
10 Bhai nili Mmbumu, malaika jula gwambeleshe kuntundu shitumbi shikulungwa shashileu. Gwanangwile shilambo sha ukonjelo Yelushalemu, shilituluka kukopoka kunnungu, ku bhakulungwa a Nnungu,
And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 shiling'anyima kwa ukonjelo gwa a Nnungu. Shilangaya shakwe pushaliji mbuti sha liganga lya mmbiya yaigwinji, mbuti yashipi ja takata malinga shiyoo.
Having the glory of God: and her light was like a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 Shashinkukola lugwani lukulungwa lwaluleu lwa matopali, na milango likumi limo na jibhili, na mmilango mula bhashinkupagwanga ashimalaika bha a Nnungu, likumi limo na bhabhili. Na kila pantundu nnango lyashinkujandikwa lina limo, lya munkumbi gwa mena ga makabhila likumi limo na gabhili, ga Ishilaeli.
And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
13 Kila mmbali jashinkupagwa milango jitatu, kulikopoka lyubha milango jitatu, na kuliwila lyubha milango jitatu, na kuntundu jakwe, milango jitatu, na kwibhanda jakwe, milango jitatu.
On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.
14 Makumba ga lugwani lwa shene shilambosho, gashinkushengwa mmaganga ga tandubhila likumi limo na gabhili, na kila liganga pantundu jakwe, pashinkujandikwa lina limo, lya munkumbi gwa mena ga mitume likumi limo na bhabhili, bhaka Mwana Ngondolo bhala.
And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 Na malaika abheleketaga na nne jula, ashinkukola imbo ja pimila ja shaabhu, nkupinga apime shene shilambosho, na milango jakwe, na makumba ga lugwani lwakwe.
And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and its gates, and its wall.
16 Shilambo shiyene pushaliji sha ndumba nsheshe ya lingana kila upande. Bhai, nigwapimile shilambo shila kwa imbo jakwe, shashinkukola uleu, na shannyenje, na shipunda, puyaliji kilometa elupu mbili, na mmia pasheshe.
And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and its height are equal.
17 Gwapimile na likumba lya lugwani lwakwe, pulyaaliji shipunda mita makumi shita kwa shipimilo sha meyo ga shigundu, shapimile malaika jula.
And he measured its wall, an hundred and forty four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
18 Lwene lugwanilo lwashinkushengwa kwa maganga ga mmbiya yaigwinji ga yashipi, shilambo shiyene shashinkushengwa kwa shaabhu ja takata, ja mbuti shiyoo.
And the building of its wall was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like clear glass.
19 Kila liganga lya tandubhila lya lwene lugwanilo, lyashinkukelengelelwa na maganga ga mmbiya yaigwinji, ga kila namuna. Liganga lya ntai lya tandubhila pulyaaliji lya yashipi, na lya bhili yakuti shamawi, na lya tatu kalikedoni, na lya nsheshe shumalidi,
And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 na lya nng'ano shadoniki, na lya shita akiki, na lya shabha kilisholito, na lya nane shabalajadi, na lya tisha yakuti ja lindani, na lya kumi kilishopulasho, na lya kumi na limo iakinto, na lya kumi na gabhili ametishito.
The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
21 Na milango kumi na jibhili jila, pujaliji lulu kumi na ibhili. Kila nnango gwashinkualaywa na lulu jimo. Mpanda njindo gwa shilambo, gwashinkualaywa na shaabhu ja takata mbuti shiyoo.
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; each one of the gates was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 Nangalibhona liekalu shene shilambosho, pabha Bhakulungwa a Nnungu Bhakwete Mashili gowe naka Mwana Ngondolo jula, ni liekalu lyakwe.
And I saw no temple in it: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
23 Na shene shilambosho shikaalolela shilangaya sha lyubha wala sha lwei, pabha ukonjelo gwa a Nnungu unalangaya, na kandili jakwe ni Mwana Ngondolo jula.
And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God lightened it, and the Lamb is its lamp.
24 Bhandunji bha ilambo ina, shibhaowanje nshilangaya shakwe, na bhapalume bha pa shilambolyo shibhapelekanje ukonjelo gwabhonji mwenemo.
And the nations of them who are saved shall walk in its light: and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honour into it.
25 Milango jakwe jikaugalwa mui gowe, pabha mwenemo shikapagwa shilo.
And its gates shall not be shut by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 Ukonjelo na ishima ya bhandunji bha ilambo ina shiipelekwe mwenemo.
And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27 Ikabheje shakwa shoshowe sha nyata shipinga jinjila mwenemo, wala mundu jojowe atenda indu yangali ya mmbone, eu ya unami akajinjila mwenemo. Ikabheje bhene bhajandikwenje nshitabhu sha gumi, shika Mwana Ngondolo ni shibhajinjilangane mwenemo.
And there shall by no means enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
