1 Na Mwanakondolu pakagubanduriti mfindiku gwa saba, kuweriti jiii kumpindi kwa shipindi sha nusu saa.
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 Shakapanu, nuwawoniti wantumintumi wa kumpindi saba walii wagoloka palongolu pa Mlungu wapananitwi mimbalapi saba.
And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and seven trumpets were given to them.
3 Ntumintumi gwa kumpindi yumonga kasokiti, katola shetezu sha zaabu, kagoloka palongolu pa shitalawanda sha kutambikira pa kutumisiya ubani. Nayomberi wampananiti ubani uvuwa kawutumisiyi pamuhera na maluwa ga wantu woseri wa Mlungu pashitalawanda sha kutambikira sha zaabu yayiweriti palongolu pa shibanta sha ufalumi.
And another angel came, and stood before the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given to him much incense, that he might present it with the prayers of all the saints, upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
4 Lyosi lya ubani pamuhera na maluwa ga wantu wa Mlungu, vikweniti kunani kulawa mumawoku mwakuwi ulii ntumintumi gwa kumpindi yakaweriti palongolu pa Mlungu.
And the smoke of the perfumes went up, with the prayers of the saints, from the hand of the angel, before God.
5 Shakapanu ntumintumi gwa kumpindi katola shetezu shilii, kashimemiziya motu kulawa pashitalawanda sha kutambikira, kashiyasa pasipanu. Paweriti na mpanta na lirindimiru na mimeta na libegiziwu lya isi.
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with the fire of the altar, and threw it upon the earth; and there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
6 Shakapanu wantumintumi wa kumpindi saba walii, yawaweriti na mimbalapi saba walituliti kala kugagomba mimbalapi.
And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets, prepared themselves to sound.
7 Ntumintumi gwa kwanja gwa kumpindi kagombiti mbalapi yakuwi. Mhanganyiku gwa vula ya mabuwi na motu pamuhera na mwazi gwitikitwi pasipanu. Selusi yimu ya isi ilunguliti na selusi yimu ya mitera ilunguliti na mihamba yoseri miwisi ilunguliti.
And the first sounded; and there hail and fire, mingled with blood, and it was cast down upon the earth; and a third part of the trees was burnt up, and all the herbage was burnt up.
8 Shakapanu ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa pili kagombiti mbalapi yakuwi na shintu gambira lugongu lukulu lwaluwaka motu luwasitwi mubahali. Selusi yimu ya ibahali igalambukiti kuwera mwazi,
And the second angel sounded; and it was as if a great mountain, burning with fire, was cast into the sea;
9 selusi yimu ya viwumbi vyavilikala mubahali vifuwiti na selusi yimu ya mitumbwi ihalibisitwi.
and a third part of the creatures which had life in the sea, died; and a third part of the ships were destroyed.
10 Shakapanu ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa tatu kagombiti mbalapi yakuwi. Na ntondu nkulu yakiti gambira lisukuruwa lya motu iguwiti kulawa kumpindi na kutulukira muselusi yimu ya nshemba na mbwiru zya mashi.
And the third angel sounded; and there fell from heaven a great star, blazing like a torch; and fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters:
11 Ntondu ayi ishemwa “Ukalipa.” Su selusi yimu ya mashi gaweriti gakalipa, wantu wavuwa wahowiti toziya ya mashi aga, toziya gagalambukiti gaweriti gakalipa.
and the name of the star was called Wormwood, and a third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were become bitter.
12 Shakapanu ntumintumi gwa kumpindi gwa msheshi kagombiti mbalapi yakuwi. Su selusi yimu ya mshenji ikomitwi na selusi yimu ya lyezi ikomitwi na selusi yimu ya ntondu ikomitwi, su selusi ya vyoseri avi viwera liwindu. Selusi yimu ya paliwala yaheriti uweru, vilaa na selusi yimu ya pashiru.
And the fourth angel sounded; and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars, so that the third part of them was darkened, and the day was obscured for a third part, and the night also.
13 Shakapanu ndoliti, mpikaniriti mpongu kapungu pakaguluka kumpindi nentu kuliyera pakalonga kwa liziwu likulu, “Shodi, oli, oli, kwa yawalikala pasipanu shipindi wantumintumi wa kumpindi watatu yagasigaliti hawagombi mbalapi zyawu!”
And I beheld, and heard one of the angels flying in the midst of heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to those who dwell upon the earth, for the remaining sounds of the trumpets of the three angels, which are yet to sound!
