Tshenolo 12
1 Mme ga bonala sesupo se segolo mo legodimong, se supa dilo tse di tlaa tlang, ka bona mosadi a apere letsatsi, go na le ngwedi ka fa tlase ga dinao tsa gagwe, le serwalo sa dinaledi di le lesome le bobedi mo tlhogong ya gagwe.
And there appeared a great sign in heaven, a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars.
2 O ne a le moimana mme a lediwa ke ditlhabi tsa pelegi ya gagwe, a letetse go belega.
And being with child, she cried out in travail, labouring to be delivered.
3 Ka tshoganetso ga bonala kgogela e khibidu, e na le ditlhogo di supa le dinaka di le lesome, le dirwalo di supa mo tlhogong ya bone.
And there appeared another sign in heaven, and behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns; and upon his heads seven crowns.
4 Mogatla wa yone o ne o goga karolo ya boraro ya dinaledi, tse e neng ya di latlhela mo lefatsheng. Ya ema fa pele ga mosadi jaaka a ne a tloga a belega, e ipaakanyeditse go kometsa losea fa lo tsholwa.
And his tail drew a third part of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman, who was ready to bring forth, that when she was delivered, he might devour her child.
5 Mme a tshola ngwana wa mosimane yo o neng a tshwanetse go busa dichaba tsotlhe ka letsogo le le bokete, mme a phamolelwa kwa Modimong le kwa setilong sa one sa bogosi.
And she brought forth a male child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
6 Mosadi a siela mo sekakeng, kwa Modimo o neng o mmaakanyeditse bonno teng, go mo tlhokomela selekanyo sa malatsi a le sekete le makgolo a mabedi le borataro.
And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they might nourish her there a thousand two hundred and sixty days.
7 Mme ga nna ntwa mo legodimong; Mikaele le baengele ba gagwe ba lwantsha kgogela le baengele ba yone ba ba neng ba digelwa mo lefatsheng.
And there was war in heaven, Michael and his angels fought against the dragon: and the dragon fought, and his angels;
8 Mme kgogela ya fenngwa ya lelekwa kwa legodimong.
but these prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 Kgogela e kgolo e, ebong noga ya bogologolo e e bidiwang diabolo, kgotsa Satane, ene yo o tsietsang lefatshe lotlhe, o ne a latlhelwa mo lefatsheng le mophato wa gagwe otlhe.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the devil and Satan, who deceiveth the whole world: he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him.
10 Mme ka utlwa lentswe le goela kwa godimo le kgabaganya magodimo le re, “Go diragetse kwa bofelong! Poloko ya Modimo le nonofo le puso, le taolo ya ga Keresete Morwa one gompieno di tsile; gonne mopateletsi wa bakaulengwe ba rona o latlhetswe kwa lefatsheng a tswa mo legodimong, yo o ntseng a ba pateletsa bosigo le motshegare fa pele ga Modimo wa rona.
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accused them before our God day and night.
11 Ba mo fentse ka madi a Kwana, le ka bosupi jwa bone; gonne ga ba a ka ba rata matshelo a bone mme ba a itatola ka ntlha ya gagwe.
And they have overcome him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their life unto the death.
12 Ke gone ipeleng, magodimo! Lona banni ba legodimo, ipeleng! Itumeleng! Mme a bo go latlhega lona batho ba lefatshe, gonne diabolo o tsile mo go lona ka bogale jo bogolo, a itse gore o na le nako e nnye.”
Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them: but wo to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea; for the devil is come down to you, in great rage, knowing that he hath but a short time.
13 Mme erile fa kgogela e bona e latlhetswe mo lefatsheng, ya bogisa mosadi yo o tshotseng ngwana wa mosimane.
Now when the dragon saw that he was cast down to the earth, he persecuted the woman that brought forth the male-child:
14 Mme mosadi a bo a neilwe diphuka tse pedi tse di tshwanang le tsa ntsu yo mo tona, go fofela kwa sekakeng kwa lefelong le a le baakanyeditsweng kwa o neng a tlhokomelwa teng a bo a sirelediwa mo nogeng, ebong kgogela, selekanyo sa dingwaga tse tharo le sephatlo.
and there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, where she is to be nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 Mme mo leganong la noga metse a mantsi a hulegela kwa mosading e le go leka go mo tsaya;
And the serpent threw water out of his mouth, like a river, after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood.
16 mme lefatshe la mo thusa ka go atlhamologa la metsa metse otlhe a a tswang mo kgogeleng.
But the earth helped the woman, and opened it's mouth, and swallowed up the flood, which the dragon threw out of his mouth.
17 Hong kgogela e e gaketseng ya bolola go ya go tlhasela bana ba mosadi ba ba setseng, botlhe ba ba neng ba tshegeditse ditaolo tsa Modimo le go ipolela gore ke ba ga Jesu. Ya ema e letile mo moshaweng wa lewatle.
Then the dragon was enraged against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and who have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
