Ugubutulu 17
1 Yumu gwa wantumintumi wa kumpindi saba walii, yawaweriti na mabakuli saba kiziti na kang'ambiriti, “Gwizi na neni hanukulanguziyi utoza yakapananitwi mndiyandiya mkulu ulii, yakalivagiti pambeku na mashi gavuwa.
And one of the seven angels having the seven bowls, came and spoke with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the judgment of the great harlot, the one sitting upon many waters:
2 Wafalumi wa pasipanu watenditi uhumba pamuhera nayomberi na wantu yawalikala pasipanu walowera divayi ya uhumba wakuwi.”
with whom the kings of the earth committed fornication, and those dwelling upon the earth were made drunk from the wine of her fornication.
3 Shakapanu Rohu gwa Mlungu kanjegiti na ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kanjegiti kushiwara. Kweni aku numwona mdala kalivagiti pankanyama mkalipa msheri. Nkanyama mkalipa ayu kaweriti kalembwa kila pahala matawu ga kumwigilanga Mlungu, kaweriti na mituwi saba na magoli lilongu.
And he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast, having the names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 Mdala ayu kaweriti kavala nguwu langi ya zambalawu na nsheri, kaweriti kalihelipiziya kwa zaabu na vintu vinyawitwi kwa mabuwi ga beyi nkulu na mabuwi ga lulu. Mumawoku mwakuwi kaweriti na lutekeru lwa zaabu lwaluweliti lumema makalaliru na vitwatira vidoda vya uhumba wakuwi.
And the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and gilded with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and the impurities of her fornication:
5 Pashiwunji shakuwi palembitwi visoweru vya litawu lyana mana ya bada, “Babiloni mkulu, mawu gwa wandiyandiya na gwa vitwatira vyoseri vya kukalaziya nentu pasipanu.”
and upon her forehead her name was written; Mystery, Babylon The Great, The Mother of Harlots And The Abominations of The Earth.
6 Numwona mdala ayu kalowera mwazi gwa wantu wa Mlungu na mwazi gwa wantu yawalagitwi toziya ya kuwera wakapitawu kwa Yesu. Panumwoniti nulikangashiti nentu.
And I saw the woman drunken from the blood of the saints, and from the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and seeing her, I was astonished with great astonishment.
7 Kumbiti ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kang'ambira, “Iwera hashi gwankulikangasha. Neni hanukugambiri mana ya bada yaififikiti ya mdala ayu na nkanyama mkalipa ayu yakampapiti, nkanyama mkalipa yakawera na mituwi saba na magoli lilongu.
And the angel said to me, Wherefore wast thou astonished? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman and of the beast which carries her, having the seven heads and ten horns.
8 Nkanyama mkalipa ayu yagumwoniti, kaweriti mkomu pakwanja kumbiti vinu kahowa. Kayi kapakwegera kulawa mulirindi lyalihera upeleru kugenda kuharabisiwa. Wantu yawalikala pasipanu hawalikangashi, wantu woseri matawu gawu galembitwi ndiri mushintola sha ukomu kwanjira kunyawa kwa pasipanu, hawalikangashi kumwona nkanyama mkalipa ayu kwanja kalikaliti, shakapanu kafuwa na vinu hakalawili kayi. (Abyssos g12)
The beast which you saw was, and is not; and is about to come up out of the abyss, and go into perdition: and those dwelling upon the earth, whose name has not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, will be astonished, seeing the beast, because he was, and is not, and will be. (Abyssos g12)
9 “Panu pafiruwa mahala na luhala! Mituwi saba ayi ndo vigongu saba mdala ayu kalivagiti. Mituwi ayi viraa ndo wafalumi saba.
Here is a mind having wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, where the woman sits upon them,
10 Pakati pa wafalumi saba, wamhanu yawagamiliti kala, yumu kankali kankukolamlima na yumonga ulii kankali kwiza na pakasoka kafiruwa hakakolimlima kwa shipindi shididini.
and there are seven kings; five have fallen, one is, and another is not yet come; and when he may come it behooves him to remain a little while.
11 Na nkanyama mkalipa ayu yakaweriti kankulikala kwanja, kumbiti vinu kalikala ndiri kayi ndo mfalumi gwa nani na yomberi viraa ndo yumu gwawu gwa walii saba na kuharabisiwa.
The beast which was, and is not, and the same is the eighth, and is of the seven, and is going into perdition.
12 “Magoli galii lilongu yagugawoniti ndo wafalumi lilongu weni haweniyanji kukolamlima. Kumbiti hawapananwi uwezu wa kukolamlima kwa shipindi sha saa yimu pamuhera na nkanyama mkalipa ulii.
And the ten horns which you saw, are ten kings, who live not yet received a kingdom; but they receive authority as kings one hour with the beast.
13 Woseri awa lilongu wawera na nfiru yimu na hawamupanani nkanyama mkalipa ulii makakala na uwezu wawu.
These have one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
14 Hawalikomangi na Mwanakondolu na kumbiti Mwanakondolu pamuhera na walii yakawashemiti na kuwasyagula weni ndo waminika hakawakanki toziya yomberi ndo Mtuwa gwa watuwa na Mfalumi gwa wafalumi.”
These will make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall conquer them, because he is the Lord of lords, and King of kings: and with him are the called, and the elect, and the faithful.
15 Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kang'ambira vilaa, “Mashi galii yagugawoniti palii pakalivagiti mndiyandiya ulii, ndo mapinga ga wantu wa kulawa kila isi, ukowu na luga.
And he says to me, The waters which you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16 Na magoli lilongu galii gagugawoniti na nkanyama mkalipa ulii hawamkalalili mndiyandiya ulii. Hawatoli kila shintu shakawera nashu na kumleka shivula hera, hawalii vinofu vya nshimba yakuwi na kumlunguziya kwa motu.
And the ten horns which you saw and the beast, these will hate the harlot, and will make her desolate and naked, and eat her flesh, and burn her up with fire;
17 Toziya Mlungu kalekera mumyoyu mwawu nfiru ya kutenda mafiliru gakuwi, su walijimirani womberi kwa womberi na kumpanana nkanyama mkalipa ayu makakala ga kukolamlima mpaka galii gagatakuliti Mlungu pagatendeka.
for God has given it into their hearts to do his mind, and to have one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled.
18 “Na mdala ulii yagumwoniti ndo lushi lulii lukulu lwaluwera na ukukolamlima wawafalumi wa pasipanu.”
And the woman whom you saw is the great city, the one having dominion over the kings of the earth.
