Nng'ibhulo 7
1 Gakapiteje genega, gunaabhweninji ashimalaika nsheshe bhali bhajimingenenje nndumba nsheshe ya shilambolyo, bhaliibhilanga mbungo nsheshe ya shilambolyo, nkupinga panapagwe mbungo ja puga pa shilambolyo, na pantundu bhaali, wala panani nkongo gogowe.
And after this I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, so that no wind should blow upon the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
2 Nigunimmwene malaika juna aliikwela kukopoka kulikoposhela lyubha, ali na lulembo lwa a Nnungu bhakwete gumi. Nigwabhashemilenje kwa lilobhe lya utiya ashimalaika nsheshe bhapegwilwenje mashili ga kushiangabhanya shilambolyo na bhaali alinkuti,
And I saw another angel ascending from the sun's rising, having the seal of the Living God. And he cried out with a loud voice to the four angels, to whom it had been granted to harm the earth and the sea,
3 “Nnashiangabhanyanje shilambolyo wala bhaali, na wala mikongo, mpaka pushitubhishe lulembo pa shenyi sha kila ntumishi jwa a Nnungu bhetu.”
saying: “Do not harm the earth, nor the sea nor the trees, until we have sealed the slaves of our God on their foreheads.”
4 Penepo nigumbilikene ishabhu ja bhabhishilwenje lulembo, yani bhandunji 144,000 kukoposhela ku makabhila gowe ga Ishilaeli.
And I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred and forty four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the sons of Israel:
5 Kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Yuda bhandunji 12,000, kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Lubheni bhandunji 12,000, kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Gadi bhandunji 12,000,
From the tribe of Judah twelve thousand were sealed, from the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, from the tribe of Gad twelve thousand,
6 kukoposhela kulikabhila lya a Asheli bhandunji 12,000, kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Naputali bhandunji 12,000, kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Menashi bhandunji 12,000,
from the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, from the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, from the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand,
7 kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Shimoni bhandunji 12,000, kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Lawi bhandunji 12,000, kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Ishakali bhandunji 12,000,
from the tribe of Simeon twelve thousand, from the tribe of Levi twelve thousand, from the tribe of Issachar twelve thousand,
8 kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Shabhuloni bhandunji 12,000, kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Yoshepu bhandunji 12,000, na kukoposhela ku likabhila lya a Bhenjamini bhandunji 12,000.
from the tribe of Zebulun twelve thousand, from the tribe of Joseph twelve thousand, from the tribe of Benjamin twelve thousand were sealed.
9 Gakapiteje genega, gunilibhweni likuga lya bhandunji lyangakombola mundu kubhalanganya. Bhandunji kukoposhela kila shilambo, na bha kila likabhila, na bha kila shipinga, na bhandunji bha kila ulongo, na bha kila shibheleketi. Bhajimingenenje mmujo ja shitengu sha upalume, na mmujo jika Mwana Ngondolo, bhali bhawetenje nngubho yanawe na bhali bhakamwilenje maagala ga mitende mmakono gabhonji.
After these things I looked, and wow, a great multitude that no one could number, from all ethnic nations and tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the Throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes and having palm branches in their hands.
10 Na bhene bhanganyabho bhatendaga utiyanga lilobhe bhalinkutinji, “Ntapulo ukoposhela kwa a Nnungu bhetu, bhaatama pa shitengu sha upalume na kuka Mwana Ngondolo!”
And they shouted with a loud voice saying, “Saved by our God who sits on the throne, and by the Lamb!”
11 Na ashimalaika bhowe, gubhajimingenenje kutimbilila shitengu sha upalume shila, na bhanangulungwa makumi gabhili na nsheshe, na yene iumbe nsheshe ikwete gumi ila. Nigubhagwilenje namanguku mmujo ja shene shitengu sha upalume nikwaatindibhalila a Nnungu,
And all the angels stood around the Throne, and the elders and the four living beings, and they fell down before the Throne, on their faces, and worshiped God,
12 bhalinkutinji, Amina, yani Nneyo Peyo! Kuiniywa, na ukonjelo, na lunda, na tenda eja, na ishima, na kukombola, na mashili, ibhe kwa a Nnungu bhetu piti piti Amina. (aiōn g165)
saying: “Amen! The blessing and the glory and the wisdom and the thanksgiving and the honor and the power and the strength to our God for ever and ever! Amen.” (aiōn g165)
13 Penepo jumo munkumbi gwa bhene makumi gabhili na nsheshe bhala, nigubhamushiye, bhene bhawetenje nngubho yanawebha ni ashi gani, na bhaakoposhelanga kwei?
And one of the elders reacted, saying to me, “Who are these that are clothed in the white robes, and where did they come from?”
14 Nigunaajangwile, “Mmakulungwa, mmwe mmumanyi.” Na bhalabho nigubhamalanjile, “Bhanganyabha ni bhakoposhelenje nshilaje sha punda, na bhashapilenje nngubho yabhonji mminyai jika Mwana Ngondolo, nikuitenda ibhe yanawe kaje.
So I said to him, “My lord, you know.” So he said to me: “These are those who come out of the Great Tribulation—they washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Kwa nneyo, bhanajimangana mmujo ja shitengu sha upalume, nkwaakamulila a Nnungu maengo, shilo na mui Nniekalu lyabho. Na bhene bhaatama pa shitengu sha upalume, shibhaabhikanje muulinda kwa kwaunishilanga liema lyabho.
Therefore they are before the throne of God, and they serve Him day and night in His sanctuary. And He who sits on the throne will shelter them.
16 Bhakakolanga shibhanga kabhili, wala nnjota. Lyubha likaabhalilanga, na wala lyoto likaabhabhulilanga.
They shall not hunger anymore, nor thirst anymore; the sun will absolutely not strike them, nor any heat;
17 Pabha Mwana Ngondolo ali pakatipakati shitengu sha upalume shaabhe nshunga jwabhonji, jwalakwe shaabhalongoyanje ku shinjweshwe sha mashi gakwete gumi. Na a Nnungu shibhaaungutanje minyoi jowe mmeyo gabhonji.”
because the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne shepherds them and leads them to springs of waters of life. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
