Nng'ibhulo 5
1 Bhai gunishibhweni shitabhu munkono gwa nnilo gwa bhene bhatemi pa shitengu sha ukulungwa, na shene shitabhusho shashinkujandikwa nkati na palanga na shashinkutabhwa iundo shabha.
And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
2 Kabhili gunimmweni malaika akwete mashili aliutiya lilobhe alinkuti. “Gani apinjikwa kugopola yene iundoi nikushiunukula shene shitabhu shino?”
And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
3 Ikabheje jwakwa mundu jojowe kunnungu, wala pa shilambolyo wala pai kubhawilenje, akombwele kuunukula shene shitabhusho eu kulola nkati.
And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
4 Bhai, nne gung'utile kaje pabha jwangabhoneka mundu apinjikwa kuunukula shene shitabhusho eu kulola nkati.
And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
5 Ikabheje bhamo munkumbi gwa bhanangulungwa bhala, gubhanugulile, “Unagute, lola, Imba jwa shipinga sha a Yuda, jwa lubheleko lwa a Daudi, akombwele. Jwenejo shaakombole kuigopola iundo shabhayo na kuunukula shene shitabhusho.”
And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 Na gunimweni Mwana Ngondolo ajimi pakati shitengu sha upalume, shitimbililwe kila mmbali na yene iumbe nsheshe ikwete gumi ila, na bhanangulungwa bhala. Jwene Mwana Ngondolo jula pabhonekaga mbuti ashiingwa. Ashinkukola mbembe shabha na meyo shabha na yeneyo ni ashi Mbumu shabha bha a Nnungu bhapelekwenje kila mmbali pa shilambolyo.
And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
7 Mwana Ngondolo nigwapite tola shene shitabhu shila, munkono nnilo gwa bhatemi pa shitengu sha upalume bhala.
And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
8 Shangupe akatoleje shene shitabhu shila, yene iumbe ikwete gumi ila, na bhene bhanangulungwa makumi gabhili na nsheshe bhala, gubhagwilenje namanguku mmujo jika Mwana Ngondolo jula. Kila shiumbe ashinkukamula shingushingushi na nkungu gwa shaabhu ugumbeywe lubhani, yani malobhe ga bhandunji bha ukonjelo nkwaajuganga a Nnungu.
And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four [and] twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
9 Na gubhajimbilenje lwimbo lwa ambi bhalinkutinji. “Mmwe ni nkupinjikwa kutola shene shitabhusho, na gopola iundo yakwe. Pabha mmwe nshiingwa, na kwa minyai jenu nshikwaumila a Nnungu bhetu bhandunji koposhela kila likabhila, na bha kila shibheleketi, na bha kila ulongo, na bha kila shilambo.
And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 Nshikwaatendanga bhabhe upalume gwa bhakulungwanji bha bhishila bhaatumishilanje a Nnungu bhetu, na shibhatagwalanje pa shilambolyo.”
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
11 Gunolile kabhili, gumbilikene malobhe ga a shimalaika bhabhagwinji kaje, maelupu na mamilioni, bhatimbililenje shitengu sha upalume, na yene iumbe nsheshe ikwete gumi ila, na bhanangulungwa bhala,
And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
12 kwa lilobhe lya utiya nigubhashitenje, “Mwana Ngondolo ainjilwe, jwenejo ni apinjikwa kuposhela mashili ga kombola, utajili, lunda, mashili, ukonjelo na iniywa.”
Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
13 Gumbilikene iumbe yowe kunnungu, na pa shilambolyo, na pai shilambo na mbhaali, iumbe yowe pa shilambolyo ilijimba. “Kwa bhene bhaatama pa shitengu sha upalume, na kuka Mwana Ngondolo, kupagwe kuiniywa na ishima na ukonjelo na ukulungwa piti piti.” (aiōn g165)
And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, [be] unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)
14 Na yene iumbe nsheshe ikwete gumi ila guishite, “Nneyo peyo.” Na bhanangulungwa bhala gubhagwilenje namanguku, nkwaatindibhalila.
And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four [and] twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
