Ugubutulu 8
1 Na Mwanakondolu pakagubanduriti mfindiku gwa saba, kuweriti jiii kumpindi kwa shipindi sha nusu saa.
When the Lamb opened the seventh seal, there was a silence in heaven for about half an hour.
2 Shakapanu, nuwawoniti wantumintumi wa kumpindi saba walii wagoloka palongolu pa Mlungu wapananitwi mimbalapi saba.
Then I saw the seven angels who stand 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.
Another angel came, holding a golden incense bowl, standing at the incense altar. Much incense was given to him so that he would offer it with the prayers of all the saints on the golden incense altar 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.
The smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, rose up before God from the angel's hand.
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.
The angel took the incense bowl and filled it with fire from the altar. Then he threw it down to the earth, and there were crashes of thunder, rumblings, flashes of lightning, and an earthquake.
6 Shakapanu wantumintumi wa kumpindi saba walii, yawaweriti na mimbalapi saba walituliti kala kugagomba mimbalapi.
The seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared to sound them.
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.
The first angel sounded his trumpet, and there was hail and fire mixed with blood. It was thrown down onto the earth so that a third of it was burned up, a third of the trees were burned up, and all the green grass was burned 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,
The second angel sounded his trumpet, and something like a great mountain burning with fire was thrown into the sea. A third of the sea became blood,
9 selusi yimu ya viwumbi vyavilikala mubahali vifuwiti na selusi yimu ya mitumbwi ihalibisitwi.
a third of the living creatures in the sea died, and a third 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.
The third angel sounded his trumpet, and a huge star fell from the sky, blazing like a torch, on a third of the rivers and springs of water.
11 Ntondu ayi ishemwa “Ukalipa.” Su selusi yimu ya mashi gaweriti gakalipa, wantu wavuwa wahowiti toziya ya mashi aga, toziya gagalambukiti gaweriti gakalipa.
The name of the star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many people died from the waters that became 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.
The fourth angel sounded his trumpet, and a third of the sun was struck, as well as a third of the moon and a third of the stars. So a third of them turned dark; a third of the day and a third of the night had no light.
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!”
I looked, and I heard an eagle that was flying overhead calling out with a loud voice, “Woe, woe, woe, to those who live on the earth, because of the remaining trumpet blasts that are about to be sounded by the three angels.”
