Kunu ni kuswelulwa kwa Yesu Kristo kunu Nyamuanga amuyaye koleleki abheleshe abhakosi bhaye amisango jinu jili ja bhusi bhusi jibhonekane bhwangu. Agakolele gamenyekane kwo kumutuma malaika waye ku mukosi Yohana.
2 owafakaza ilizwi likaNkulunkulu, lobufakazi bukaJesu Kristu, lakho konke akubonayo.
Yohana asosishe obhubhambasi bhwa bhuli chinu chinu alolele okulubhana no omusango gwa Nyamuanga na ku bhubhambasi bhunu bhwasosibhwe ingulu ya Yesu Kristo.
3 Ubusisiwe ofunda, lalabo abezwa amazwi alesisiprofetho, besebegcina izinto ezilotshiweyo kuso; ngoba isikhathi siseduze.
Ana libhando unu kasoma kwo bhulaka na bhaliya bhona bhanu abhagendelela amasango go bhulagi bhunu no kuchikolela chinu chandikilwemo, kulwa insonga omwanya gweliye.
4 UJohane kumabandla ayisikhombisa aseAsiya: Umusa kawube kini lokuthula okuvela kuye okhona lowayekhona lozakuza; lakubomoya abayisikhombisa abaphambi kwesihlalo sakhe sobukhosi;
Yohana, ku makanisa musanju ganu gali Asia: echigongo chibhe kwemwe no mulembe okusoka ku mwene unu alio, unu aliga alio, na unu alija, no kusoka kwe myoyo musanju bhanu bhali imbele ye chitebhe chaye echo bhutungi,
5 lakuJesu Kristu, umfakazi othembekileyo, olizibulo kwabafileyo lombusi wamakhosi omhlaba. Kuye owasithandayo, wasigezisa ezonweni zethu egazini lakhe;
no kusoka ku Yesu Kristo unu ali mubhambasi mwiikanyibhwa, omwibhulwa wo kwamba wa bhanu bhafuye, no mutungi wa bhakama bha ku Chalo chinu. Ku mwene unu kachenda na achisulumuye okusoka mu bhibhibhi bhyeswe kwa insagama yaye,
6 owasenza saba ngamakhosi labapristi kuNkulunkulu uYise; kakube kuye ubukhosi lamandla kuze kube nini lanini. Ameni. (aiōn g165)
achikolele kubha bhukama, bhagabhisi bha Nyamuanga ne esemwene ku mwene libhe ekusho na amanaga kajanende kone. Amina. (aiōn g165)
7 Khangela uyeza kanye lamayezi, futhi lonke ilihlo lizambona, lalabo abamgwazayo; lezizwe zonke zomhlaba zizalila ngenxa yakhe. Yebo. Ameni.
Lola, kaja na mele; bhuli liso lilimulola, amwi na bhona bhanu bhamwitile. Na jinganda jona eje chalo ejilila kumwene. Yee, Amina.
8 Mina nginguAlfa loOmega, ukuqala lokucina, kutsho iNkosi, ekhona leyayikhona lezakuza, uSomandla.
“Nanye Alfa na Omega,” Kaika Latabhugenyi Nyamuanga, “Unu alio, na unu aliga alio, na unu kaja, unu ali na manage.”
9 Mina uJohane, longumzalwane wenu, lohlanganyela kanye lani ekuhluphekeni lembusweni lekubekezeleni kukaJesu Kristu, ngangisesihlengeni esithiwa yiPatmosi, ngenxa yelizwi likaNkulunkulu langenxa yobufakazi bukaJesu Kristu.
Anye, Yohana-owanyu no umwi unu kasangila amwi nemwe mu nyako no bhukama no by mu chimali bhunu bhuli mu Yesu.
10 NgangikuMoya ngosuku lweNkosi; futhi ngezwa ngemva kwami ilizwi elikhulu kungathi ngelophondo,
nalinga nili kwisinga linu elitongwa Patimo kulwa insonga yo musango gwa Nyamuanga no obhubhambasi okulubhana na Yesu. Naliga nili mu Mwoyo ku lusiku lwa Latabhugenyi. Ninungwa inyuma yani obhukama bhwa ingulu kuti litalumbeta,
11 lisithi: Mina nginguAlfa loOmega, ukuqala lokucina; lokuthi: Okubonayo kubhale encwadini, ukuthumele emabandleni ayisikhombisa aseAsiya, eEfesu, leSemerna, lePergamo, leTiyathira, leSardisi, leFiladelfiya, leLawodikeya.
nibhwaika, “Nuwandike mu chitabho jinu oulola, ujitume ku makanisa musanju, jije Efeso, jije Simurna, jije Pergamo, jije Thiatila, jije Sardi, jije Philadelphia, na jije Laodikia.”
12 Ngasengitshibilika ukuze ngibone ilizwi elikhuluma lami. Sengitshibilikile ngabona iziqobane zezibane zegolide eziyisikhombisa,
Ninikebhukila nilole ni bhukama bhwana bhunu obhwaika nanye, na nejile nekebhukila nindola ingujo ya ijaabhu ili na jitala musanju.
13 laphakathi kweziqobane zezibane eziyisikhombisa onjengeNdodana yomuntu, embethe isembatho esifika ezinyaweni futhi ezibophe ezithandele ngeqhele legolide emabeleni;
Agati-gati ya ingujo ya jitala aliga alimo umwi uti Mwana wo munu, afwaye ikanju ndela inu yaliga ikingile ku bhisesegela bhya amagulu gaye, na omuchipi ogwa ijaabhu okwiinda echifubha chaye.
14 njalo ikhanda lakhe lenwele zakhe kwakumhlophe njengoboya bezimvu, njengeliqhwa elikhithikileyo; lamehlo akhe enjengelangabi lomlilo,
Omutwe gwaye na jinfwili Jaye jaliga jelele uti magafu gamwela uti mabhui ga ing'ubha, na meso gaye galiga uti ebhesi lya mulilo.
15 lenyawo zakhe zazinjengethusi elikhazimulayo, njengelivutha esithandweni; lelizwi lakhe lalinjengenhlokomo yamanzi amanengi;
Ne bhigele bhyaye bhyaliga uti chuma chinu chikubhilwe muno, kuti chuma chinu chilabhile mu mulilo, no bhulaka bhwaye bhuli lwe chiulumo cha maji mafu ganu agetuluka kwa managa.
16 futhi elenkanyezi eziyisikhombisa esandleni sakhe sokunene, lemlonyeni wakhe kwaphuma inkemba ebukhali inhlangothi zombili; lobuso bakhe bunjengelanga elikhanya emandleni alo.
Aliga agwatiliye jinjota musanju mu kubhoko kwaye okwebhulyo, no okusoka mumunwa gwaye lyaliga lilimo lipanga linyamogi gabhili. Obhusu bhwaye bhwaliga ni bhulabhya lwa lisubha kutyo elisekana muno.
17 Njalo ngathi ngimbona, ngawela ngasezinyaweni zakhe njengofileyo; wasebeka isandla sakhe sokunene phezu kwami esithi kimi: Ungesabi; mina ngingowokuqala lowokucina,
Nejile namulola, Ningwa mumagulu gaye lwo munu unu aliga afuye. Natulilako okubhoko kwaye okwebhulyo ingulu yani no kwaika ati, “wasiga kubhaya! Anye ndi wo kwamba no wokumalisha,
19 Bhala izinto ozibonileyo, lezinto ezikhona, lezinto ezizakuba khona emva kwalezi:
Kulwejo, nujandike jinu walolele, jinu jilio woli na jinu jilibhonekana kukila jinu.
20 Imfihlo yenkanyezi eziyisikhombisa ozibonileyo esandleni sami sokunene, leziqobane zezibane zegolide eziyisikhombisa. Inkanyezi eziyisikhombisa ziyizithunywa zamabandla ayisikhombisa; leziqobane zezibane eziyisikhombisa ozibonileyo zingamabandla ayisikhombisa.
Kulwo kubha jinu jiselekele okulubhana na jinjota musanju jinu wabhwene ku kubhoko kwani okwebhulyo, inomyo eya ijaabhu eya tala musanju: Jinjota musanju mbe ni Malaika bha Makanisa galya musanju, na Inomyo ya tala musanju ni galiya makanisa musanju.”
