< Oufunuo 14 >
1 Ehenyizye nawenye Mwana Ngole ayemeleye hwitagalila lyane pamwanya Pigamba Sayuni. Pandwemo no mwene bhali 144, 000 abhetawa lyakwe ni tawa lya Baba wakwe lisimbiwe humaso gabho.
Then, in my vision, I saw the Lamb standing on Mount Zion. With him were a hundred and forty-four thousand, with his name and the name of his Father written on their foreheads.
2 Novwa esauti afume amwanya yonwehwa nashi enshinto eyemenze minji nesauti engosi yendapusi. Esauti yenonwezye nashi bhabhakhoma enonji bhabhakhoma enonji zyabho.
And I heard a sound from heaven, like the sound of many waters, and like the sound of a loud peal of thunder; the sound that I heard was like the music of harpers playing on their harps.
3 Bhatela engoma empya hwitagalila hwitengo elyeshimwene nahwitagalila hwa anesho womi bhane nagogolo. Nomo hata yalinouwezo owamanyile olwo ong'oma kabhala 144, 000 bhashele bhabhuliwe afume mnsi.
They are singing what seems to be a new song, before the throne, and before the four creatures and the elders; and no one was able to learn that song except the hundred and forty-four thousand who had been redeemed from earth.
4 Bhala bhabhala sebhahwiilufisye bhene hubhashe manabha hwihwutile bhene humbombo eyemalaya. Bhabhebha bhalondozezye Omwana Ngole paponti pahenda. Ebha madondo aya hwande hwa Ngolobhe nahwa Mwana Ngole.
These are the men who never defiled themselves in their intercourse with women; they are as pure as virgins. These are the men who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They were redeemed as the first-fruits of mankind for God and for the Lamb.
5 Nalimo ilenka lyalyabhoneshe wilomu lyabho; sebhalawumiwa.
No lie was ever heard on their lips. They are beyond reach of blame.
6 Nalola ontumi owa mwabho aluha pahati eyemwanya, yashele aliakhete enongwa ezyamwanya owenongwa enyinza abhatangazizye bhabhakhala mnsi shila litaifa, ikabela, enjango, na bhantu. (aiōnios )
Then I saw another angel, flying in mid-heaven. He had the good news, decreed from eternity, to announce to those who live on the earth – to men of every nation, and tribe, and language, and people; (aiōnios )
7 Wabhakwizya hu sauti engosi, “Mwogopi Ongolobhe mpele owuzuvyo. Afwatanaje isiku elyalongwe lipalamie. Putaji omwene, omwene yabhombele emwanya, ne nsi, ne nsombi, na matoto ege menze.”
and he cried in a loud voice – ‘Reverence God, and give him praise (for the hour of his judgment has come) and worship him who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and all springs of water.’
8 Ontumi owamwabho - ontumi owa bhele - walondozya wayanga, “Ogwiye, ogwiye Babeli wogosi, washele ohabhamwelezezye eshikholwe eshe umalaya neshikholwe shashele shaletile ilyoyo pamwanya pakwe.”
Then a second angel followed, crying – ‘She has fallen! She has fallen – Babylon the Great, who has made all the nations drink the maddening wine of her licentiousness!’
9 Ontumi owamwabho - ontumi owatatu - abhalondozezye, ayanjile husauti ngosi, “Wawonti yabhahupute oyo omnyama nesanamu yakwe, naposhele eshilanjizo shapamaso gakwe namakhono,
Then a third angel followed them, crying in a loud voice – ‘Whoever worships the Beast and its image, and receives its brand on his forehead or on his hand,
10 wope nantele abhamwele eshikholweshe ilyoyo lya Ngolobhe, eshikholwe shashele shashilenganyiziwe na hwitwe nantele adibhanye hu shikombe shelyoyo lyakwe. Omntu yashele abhamwele abhalabhe humwoto no mwoto oweshibiliti pitagalila pantumi bhakwe abhinza napitagalila pa Mwana Ngole.
that person will drink the maddening wine of God that has been poured unmixed into the cup of his wrath, and they will be tortured with fire and sulfur before the eyes of the holy angels and before the eyes of the Lamb.
11 Ni lyosi elya bhabhe hwabho wabhala wilawila nasebhali notoyo pasanya no siku - ebho bhabhahuputa omnyama ne sanamu yakwe, na shila mntu yaposheye eshilanjizyo eshitawa lyakwe. (aiōn )
The smoke from their torture rises for ever and ever, and they have no rest day nor night – those who worship the Beast and its image, and all who are branded with its name.’ (aiōn )
12 Owu wito wagolele na jimbe hwa bhelweteho bhala bha whogopa endajizyo ezya Ngolobhe no lweteho hwa Yesu.”
(Here there is need for endurance on the part of Christ’s people – those who lay to heart the commands of God and the faith of Jesus.)
13 Nonvwa esauti afume amwanya iyanga, “Simba ega: Nahwashi abhafwe bhabhafwashe Gosi.” “Shashesho,” ayanga Ompepo, “aje bhawezye atoye afume humbombo zyabho, maana embombo zyabho zyaibhalondozya.”
Then I heard a voice from heaven saying ‘Write: “Blessed are the dead who from this hour die in union with the Lord.”’ “Yes,” answers the Spirit, “that they may rest from their toil. Their good deeds go with them.”
14 Nahenyizye nalola hwalini bhengo izelu nayakheye pibhengo aliomo yali nashi Omwana wa Mntu. Ali ne taji eye dhahabu hwitwe lyakwe ne nsengo enyoji hukhono gwakwe.
Then, in my vision, I saw a white cloud, and on the cloud there was sitting one like a man. On his head he had a crown of gold, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
15 Ontumi owamwabho nantele ahenzele afume hu hekalu akwizizye hu sauti ngosi abhale hwola yakheye pibhengo: “Ega ensengo yaho oyande avune. Afwatanaje omda ogwa vunile gufishile, manaa mavuno gagali mnsi gakhomile.”
Then another angel came out from the Temple, crying in a loud voice to him who was sitting on the cloud – ‘Take your sickle and reap, for the time to reap has come; the Harvest of Earth is ready.’
16 Nantele ola yali pibhengo ashizizye ensengo yakwe pamwanya pansi nesi yavunwa.
He who was sitting on the cloud brought his sickle down on the earth, and the Harvest of Earth was reaped.
17 No ntumi owa mwabho wenza afume hu hekalu elya mwanya; wape alinensengo enyoji.
Then another angel came out of the Temple in heaven; he, also, had a sharp sickle.
18 Na asele ontumi owamwabho wenza afume humadhabahu, no ntumi yali na madalaka pamwanya pa mwoto. Wakwizya husauti engosi ontumi yali nensengo enyoji, “Ega ensengo enyoji naogabhonganye amasamba ege mzabibu afume hu mazabibu owa pansi, afatanaje ozabibu eshi gutonile.”
Then another angel came out of the altar; he had power over fire, and he called in a loud voice to the angel that had the sharp sickle – ‘Take your sharp sickle, and gather the bunches from the vine of Earth, for its grapes are ripe.’
19 Ontumi atwalile ensengo yakwe hunsi nabhonganye amayabhililo ege zabibu egeensi naagalisizye mwipipa igosi elye shimwelo yilyoyo lya Ngolobhe.
The angel brought his sickle down on the earth and gathered the fruit of the vine of Earth, and threw it into the great winepress of the wrath of God.
20 Izubhulilo elye shimwelo lya polelwe lya polelwe hwonze yemenze ni danda litiha afume hwelo hwikhalilo lye falasi, hushinza 1, 600.
The grapes were trodden in the press outside the city; and blood came out of the press, rising as high as the bridles of the horses for a distance of two hundred miles.
