Oufunuo 12
1 Hwawabhaje hwabhoneha amwanya: ashe akwinshiwe nisanya, alinomwezi pansi yemanama gakwe; netaji eye ntondwe olingo limo nazibhele yali pamwanya pitwe lyakwe.
A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
2 Ali nolwanda na alialila nabhawa—aje apape akhetwe aje apape.
She was with child. She screamed out in pain, laboring to give birth.
3 Ohwabhele hwabha hwabhoneshe amwanya: Enya! Hwali noguzoha ogusha mwamu igosi lyashele lyali namatwe saba nempeta ilongo limo, hali netaji saba humatwe gakwe.
Another sign was seen in heaven. Look, a great fiery red serpent, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
4 Oswiha lwakwe lwakhete etheluthi emo eye ntondwe amwanya nazitaje pansi pensi. Oguzoha gwahemeleye witagalila, eyashe yali apalamiye apape, aje wakati na papa amile omwana wakwe.
His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The serpent stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
5 Apepe omwana, oweshi lume, yashele abha tabhale ensizyonti hundesa eijela. Omwana wakwe wavuutwa amwanya hwa Ngolobhe hwitengo elye umwene,
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with an iron scepter. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.
6 neshe anyililie huisengo, pashele Ongolobhe ali alengenye pieneo kwa sababu yamwene aje ahudumiwe ensiku 1, 260.
The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand two hundred sixty days.
7 Eshi hweli nibho amwanya. O Mikaeli na antumi bhakwe bhakhomene nola enzoha; wape onzola ogosi na antumi bhakwe bhakhomana nabho.
There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the serpent. The serpent and his angels made war.
8 Lelo onzoha sagaline nguvu. Ezyamene hagapahabha nenafasi amwanya kwaajili yakwe nantumi bhakwe.
They did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any more in heaven.
9 Joka mkubwa—yule nyoka hudanganya - dunia nzima akatupwa chini katika dunia, na malaika zake wakatupwa chini pamoja naye.
The great serpent was thrown down, the ancient serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 Shesho nonvwa esauti engosi afume amwanya: “Eshi olokoole wenzele, enguvu—no umwene wa Ngolobhe wetu, na madalaka ga Kilisiti wakwe. Afwatane oshitaka owaholo bhetu aponyizewe pansi —yashele abhatakile witagalila wa Ngolobhe wetu pasanya no siku.
I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now is come the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
11 Bhamenile hwidanda elya Mwanangole na hwizu elya ohushuda wabho, kwa maana sebhagene sana amaisha gabho, paka afwe.
They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony. They did not love their life, even to death.
12 Hwesho, shanjililaji, namwe emwanya, mwenti mwamkhala mhati yakwe. Lelo palwabho pansi ne nsumbi afwataneje obhibhi ayishila hulimwe. Ali ni lyoyo ikhali, afwatanaje amenye aje alinensiku ndodo wene.
Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the land and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time."
13 Nashele onzoha ahamanya aje atajilwe pansi pensi, alondozezye washe yashele aliapepe omwana oweshilume.
When the serpent saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
14 Lelo oshe apewilwe amapiho gabhele ege nsimla engosi, aje awezye alushe paka wieneo lyalya bhewelwe hani huji ya wene hula wisengo ieneo lyashele handawezize awutwe, hu wakati ne nyakati ne nusu wakati pamo pashele sawezizye afishe oyo onzoha.
Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 Onzoha ahitile amenze afume hwilamu lyakwe nashi isoho, aje abheshe amakhabha agahumwisye.
The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
16 Lelo inkondi lyamwavwizye oshe. Ehigue ilomu lyakwe na amile isoho lyaswiye onzoha afume mwilomu lyakwe.
The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the serpent spewed out of his mouth.
17 Shesho onzoha wavitiwa oshe wape asogoye abhombe ibho nabhe mpapo bhakwe bhonti—bhala bhabha hwogopa endajizyo ezya Ngolobhe na akhatalile endajizyo ezya Yesu.
The serpent grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
