Ugubutulu 22
1 Shakapanu ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kananguziya lushemba lwa mashi ga ukomu galangala gambira gametameta, pagalawa mushibanta sha ufalumi sha Mlungu na Mwanakondolu.
Then he showed me the river of the Water of Life, bright as crystal, issuing from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 Lushemba alu lunyililikiti kupitira pakati pa njira nkulu ya lushi. Pampeku pa lushemba alu kila uwega paweriti na mtera wa ukomu yagulera mabwajubwaju mala lilongu na mbili kila mwezi. Na mahamba gakuwi ndo mgota gwa kuwaponiziya wantu wa maisi goseri.
On either side of the river, midway between it and the main street of the city, was the Tree of Life. It produced twelve kinds of fruit, yielding a fresh crop month by month, and the leaves of the tree served as medicine for the nations.
3 Kwahera shintu shoseri shashipangiliritwi hashiweri mulushi alu. Shibanta sha ufalumi sha Mlungu na sha Mwanakondolu hashiweri mulushi alu na wantumintumi wakuwi hawamguwira.
"In future there will be no curse," he said, "but the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in that city. And His servants will render Him holy service and will see His face,
4 Hawashiwoni sheni shakuwi na litawu lyakuwi halilembwi muvyeni vyawu.
and His name will be on their foreheads.
5 Pashiru hapeni paweri kayi na hapeni wafiri gulangala gwa shikoluboyi ama gulangala gwa mshenji, toziya Mtuwa Mlungu hakawalangaliri, hawakolimlima gambira wafulumi mashaka goseri. (aiōn g165)
And there will be no night there; and they have no need of lamplight or sunlight, for the Lord God will shine upon them, and they will be kings until the Ages of the Ages." (aiōn g165)
6 Shakapanu ntumintumi gwa kumpindi kang'ambira, “Visoweru avi ndo vyanakaka na vya kujimilika. Mtuwa Mlungu yakawapanana wambuyi wakuwi Rohu gwakuwi, kamtumiti ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwakuwi kawalanguziyi wantumintumi wakuwi vitwatira vyeni mpaka vilawiri kanongola.”
And he said to me, "These words are trustworthy and true; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the Prophets, sent His angel to make known to His servants the things which must soon happen.
7 Yesu kalonga, “Gupikaniri! Niza kanongola. Mbaka yakuwi yakavitenda visoweru vya umbuyi wa Mlungu yaviwera mushintola ashi.”
'I am coming quickly.' Blessed is he who is mindful of the predictions contained in this book."
8 Neni Yohani, yanuviwoniti na kuvipikinira vitwatira avi. Pampikaniriti kala na kuwona, numsuntamaliriti makukama kulongolu kwa magulu ga ntumintumi gwa kumpindi ayu yakananguziyiti vitwatira avi, nfiriti kumguwira.
I John heard and saw these things; and when I had heard and seen them, I fell at the feet of the angel who was showing me them--to worship him.
9 Kumbiti yomberi kang'ambira, “Guleki! Neni ndo ntumintumi hera gambira gwenga na walongu waku wambuyi wa Mlungu na woseri yawagajimira malagaliru yagawera mushintola ashi. Gumguwiri Mlungu!”
But he said to me, "Oh, do not do that. I am a fellow bondservant of yours, and a fellow bondservant of your brethren the Prophets and of those who are mindful of the teachings of this book. Worship God."
10 Kayi kang'ambira, “Nagutula mfindiku visoweru vya umbuyi wa Mlungu yauwera mushintola ashi, toziya shipindi shapakwegera.
"Make no secret," he added, "of the meaning of the predictions contained in this book; for the time for their fulfillment is now close at hand.
11 Su yakatenda ukondola na kendereyi kutenda ukondola na yakawera mdoda kendereyi kuwera mdoda, yakatenda maheri na kongeri kutenda maheri na yakawera mnanagala na kongeri kuwera mnanagala.”
Let the dishonest man act dishonestly still; let the filthy make himself filthy still; let the righteous practise righteousness still; and let the holy be made holy still."
12 Yesu kalonga, “Gupikaniri! Nankwiza kanongola na lifupu mmawoku mwangu lyakumpanana kila yumu kulawirana na matendu gakuwi.
"I am coming quickly; and My reward is with Me, that I may requite every man in accordance with what his conduct has been.
13 Neni Alufa na Omega, gwa kwanja na gwa upeleru, yomberi mwanjiru gwa vintu vyoseri na yakavimalira vintu vyoseri.”
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
14 Mbaka yawu walii yawagulula nguwu zyawu, wapati kuwera na ukamilika ya kuliya libwajubwaju lya mtera gwa ukomu na kwingira mlushi kwa kupitira mumilyangu yakuwi.
Blessed are those who wash their robes clean, that they may have a right to the Tree of Life, and may go through the gates into the city.
15 Aku kunja kwana wantu wana matendu madoda kumbiti wang'ang'a na wahawi na wahumba na walaga na yawaviguwira vinyagu na woseri yawafira kulonga upaya, hawalikali kunja lwa lushi.
The unclean are shut out, and so are all who practise magic, all fornicators, all murderers, and those who worship idols, and every one who loves falsehood and tells lies.
16 “Neni Yesu, numtuma ntumintumi gwangu gwa kumpindi kawagambiziyi ukapitawu wa vitwatira avi muvipinga vya wantu vyavimjimira Yesu. Neni ndo mwiwuka gwa lukolu lwa Dawudi. Neni ndo ntondu ya mandawira!”
"I Jesus have sent My angel for him solemnly to declare these things to you among the Churches. I am the Root and the offspring of David, the bright Morning Star.
17 Rohu wa Mlungu na Mdala gwa ndowa wankulonga, “Gwizi!” Kila muntu yakapikanira aga na kalongi, “Gwizi!” Yakawera na yumiluwa na kizi, yakafira na katoli mashi ga ukomu hera.
The Spirit and the Bride say, 'Come;' and whoever hears, let him say, 'Come;' and let those who are thirsty come. Whoever will, let him take the Water of Life, without payment.
18 Neni Yohani nuwaberiziya woseri yawapikanira visoweru vya umbuyi wa Mlungu vyaviwera mushintola ashi, Muntu yoseri pakongera shoseri muvitwatira avi, Mlungu hakamtendi katabiki kwa makomangu yagalembitwi mushintola ashi.
"I solemnly declare to every one who hears the words of the prophecy contained in this book, that if any one adds to those words, God will add to him the plagues spoken of in this book;
19 Na muntu yoseri pakapungula shoseri muvisoweru vya umbuyi awu wa Mlungu yawuwera mushintola ashi, Mlungu hakampoki lifungu lyakuwi mumtera gwa ukomu na semu yakuwi mulushi lunanagala, vilii vyavilembitwi mushintola ashi.
and that if any one takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take from him his share in the Tree of Life and in the holy city--the things described in this book.
20 Nayomberi yakalaviya ukapitawu kuusu vitwatira avi kalonga, “Nakaka nankwiza kanongola.” Yina hangu. Gwizi Mtuwa Yesu!
"He who solemnly declares all this says, "'Yes, I am coming quickly.'" Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.
21 Manemu ga Mtuwa Yesu, gaweri pamuhera na mwenga. Yina hangu.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with God's people.
