Nng'ibhulo 9
1 Malaika jwa nng'ano gwagombile lipenga lyakwe, na gunilubhweni lutondwa lukulungwa lwagwile koposhela kumaunde mpaka ku litaka. Lwene lutondwalo lushinkupegwa upunguo gwa ku Jeanamu. (Abyssos g12)
So the fifth angel trumpeted, and I saw a ‘star’ that had fallen out of the sky to the earth. And to him was given the key to the shaft of the Abyss. (Abyssos g12)
2 Akaunukuleje ku Jeanamu, lyoi gulikwelile kukoposhela mwenemo, mbuti lyoi liikoposhela nnituto lyalikulungwa kaje. Kwa ligongo lya lyoi lyakoposhelaga mwenemo lyubha na liunde nibha lubhindu. (Abyssos g12)
So he opened the shaft of the Abyss and smoke went up out of the shaft, like the smoke of a burning furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the shaft. (Abyssos g12)
3 Nnyoimo gugakoposhele maije, gugapite kunani shilambo showe, na gene maije gala gashinkupegwa mashili mbuti ga ibhalabhala ya pa shilambo pano.
And ‘locusts’ exited from the smoke into the earth. And to them was given a capability just like the scorpions of the earth have capability.
4 Gubhalugulilwenje bhanaangabhanyanje manyai eu mikongo eu mitipo ja pa shilambo, ikabhe bhandu bhowe bhangalinginji shilangulo shoshowe sha a Nnungu pa shenyi.
And they were told not to harm the grass of the earth, nor any green plant, nor any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God on their foreheads.
5 Gubhalugulilwenje bhaapotekanje kwa miei nng'ano, ikabheje bhanaabhulaganje. Kupoteka kwakwe pukwaliji mbuti mundu alumilwe na shibhalabhala.
And it was designated to them [locusts], not to kill them [men] but, to torment them five months. And their torment is like the torment of a scorpion whenever it strikes a person.
6 Gene mobhago bhandunji bhaapinga kushiloleyanga shiwo ikabheje bhakashibhonanga, bhaapinga lokolilanga kuwa, ikabheje shiwo shiipinga kwaabhutukanga.
And in those days the people will seek death but not find it; they will want to die but death will run away from them.
7 Gene maije gala pugaaliji mbuti palashi, ibhishilwe ukoto ijende ku ngondo. Ku mitwe jabhonji bhashinkukolanga shindu mbuti shilemba sha shaabhu, na ku meyo kwabhonji pukwaaliji mbuti kuka mundu.
Now the appearance of the ‘locusts’ was like horses prepared for battle, and something like a golden crown was on their heads, and their faces were like human faces.
8 Bhashinkukolanga umbo ya manyololo mbuti ya bhanabhakongwe, na meno gabhonji pugaliji mbuti ga imba.
They had hair like a woman's and their teeth were like a lion's.
9 Bhashinkuwalanga shindu sha mbuti itale kuibhila pa ntima, na mapapiko gabhonji gatendaga ona mbuti nnindimo gwa mutuka yaigwinji ya palashi ibhutushila ku ngondo.
They had breastplates like breastplates of iron and the noise of their wings was like the noise of many chariots with horses rushing into battle.
10 Bhashinkukolanga mishila ja mibha ja lumila bhandu mbuti shibhalabhala. Mashili ga kwaapotekanga bhandu miei jowe nng'ano kugakoposhelaga mmishila jabhonjimo.
And, they have tails like scorpions and stingers precisely in those tails! They have the capability to hurt the populace five months,
11 Pubhalinginji naka mpalume, malaika koposhela ku Jeanamu, mpalume jwabhonji, jwenejo kwa Shiebhulania pashemwaga Abhadoni, na Shiyunani pashemwaga Apolioni. (Abyssos g12)
having as king over them the angel of the Abyss—his name in Hebrew is Abbaddon, while in Greek he has the name Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)
12 Limbukute lya ntai lipitile, gaigele mambukute gabhili na ganakwiya.
The first woe is past, but, two woes are still coming, after these things.
13 Malaika jwa shita gwagombile lipenga lyakwe, numbe nne gumbilikene lilobhe lilikoposhela nndumba nsheshe ja shitala sha shaabhu shaaliji mmujo ja a Nnungu.
So the sixth angel trumpeted, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar that is before God
14 Lyene lilobhelyo gulinnugulile jwene malaika jwa shita akwete lipenga jula, “Gwaugulilanje ashimalaika nsheshe bhala bhatabhilwenje nnushi lukulungwa lushemwa Pulateshi.”
saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Release the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates.”
15 Bhai bhene ashimalaika nsheshe bhala gubhaugulilwenje bhali bhabhishilwenje ukoto kwa gene malangago na lyene lyubhalyo na gwene mweigo na shene shakasho, bhandu bhowe nngabhanyaga patatu, lipungu limo bhaabhulaganje.
So the four angels were released—they had been prepared for the hour and the day and month and year—so that they might kill a third of mankind.
16 Manjola bhakwelilenje palashi pubhalinginji milioni mmia pa bhili.
And the number of the mounted troops was a hundred million (I heard their number).
17 Na nkulola kwangu, guniibhweni palashi na bhakwelilenje palashi. Bhakwelilenje palashi bhala bhashinkukolanga ngao ya itale ya langi janashe mbuti moto na ina ya langi ja buluu janapi na ja lindani. Mitwe jabhonji bhene ashipalashi bhala pujaaliji mbuti ja imba. Moto na lyoi na bhonga shilikoposhela nkang'wa yabhonji.
And in the vision I saw the horses like this: those who rode them had breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue and sulfur yellow; the heads of the horses were like lions' heads; out of their mouths came fire, smoke and brimstone.
18 Bhandu bhowe nngabhanyaga patatu, lipungu limo gubhabhulegwenje kwa ligongo lya mambukute gatatu, yani, moto, lyoi, na bhonga, yakoposhelaga nkang'wa ja ashipalashi.
By these three plagues a third of mankind was killed—by the fire and the smoke and the brimstone that came out of their mouths.
19 Mashili ga ashipalashi mugaaliji nkang'wa yabhonji na mmishila jabhonji. Mishila jabhonji pujaaliji mbuti mitwe ja lijoka, na kwa jene mishilajo, bhatendaga ulayanga bhandu.
For the capability of the horses is in their mouths—and in their tails, because their tails are like snakes, having heads, and with them they do harm.
20 Ikabheje, bhandu bhalepekenje gwangali kubhulagwa bhashinkukananga kuipeta na leka kuntindibhalila Lishetani na indu ibhaeleyenje kwa makono gabhonji yani, yanamu ya shaabhu, na ya ela, na ya shitale, na ya maganga, na ya mikongo, ikaakombola kulola, wala kupilikana, wala kujimajima.
Yet the rest of the people, those who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, so as to stop worshiping the demons, even the idols of gold, silver, bronze, stone and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk;
21 Bhangaipetanga nileka itendi yabhonji ya bhulaga, na ya uabhi, na ya labhalabha na wala ya gwii gwabhonji.
and they did not repent of their murders or their sorceries or their fornication or their thefts.
