Tshenolo 19
1 Mme morago ga mo ka utlwa loshalaba lologolo lwa batho mo legodimong ba re, “Halleluja! Go bakwe Morena! Poloko e tswa mo Modimong wa rona. Tlotlo le taolo ke tsa one o le esi;
After these things I heard as it were the voice of much people in heaven, saying: Alleluia. Salvation, and glory, and power is to our God.
2 gonne dikatlholo tsa one di siame ebile di boammaaruri. O otlhaile seaka se segolo se se bodisitseng polao ya batlhanka ba one.”
For true and just are his judgments, who hath judged the great harlot which corrupted the earth with her fornication, and hath revenged the blood of his servants, at her hands.
3 Ba bua gangwe le gape, ba re, “A go bakwe Morena! Mme mosi wa go fisiwa ga gagwe o ne wa tlhatloga ka bosakhutleng!” (aiōn g165)
And again they said: Alleluia. And her smoke ascendeth for ever and ever. (aiōn g165)
4 Mme bagolwane ba ba masome a mabedi le bone le ditshedi tse nne ba wela fa fatshe ba obamela Modimo, o o neng o ntse mo setilong sa bogosi, ba re, “Amen! Halleluja! Go bakwe Morena!”
And the four and twenty ancients, and the four living creatures fell down and adored God that sitteth upon the throne, saying: Amen; Alleluia.
5 Mme mo setilong sa bogosi ga tswa lentswe le le reng, “Bakang Modimo wa rona, lona lotlhe batlhanka ba One, bannye le bagolo, ba ba o boifang.”
And a voice came out from the throne, saying: Give praise to our God, all ye his servants; and you that fear him, little and great.
6 Mme ka utlwa gape se se neng se utlwala jaaka loshalaba lwa batho ba bantsi kgotsa jaaka makhubu a lewatle a le lekgolo a phachegela mo lotshitshing kgotsa jaaka tumo e kgolo ya maru, ba re, “Go bakwe Morena. Gonne Morena Modimo wa rona, Mothatayotlhe, o a busa.
And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of great thunders, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord our God the Almighty hath reigned.
7 A re itumeleng re bo re ipele re mo tlotle; gonne lobaka lo fitlhile lwa modiro wa lonyalo lwa Kwana, mme monyadi wa gagwe o ipaakantse.
Let us be glad and rejoice, and give glory to him; for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath prepared herself.
8 O letleletswe go apara matsela a a phepa a masweu a a borethe.” (Letsela le le borethe le raya ditiro tse di molemo tse di dirilweng ke batho ba Modimo).
And it is granted to her that she should clothe herself with fine linen, glittering and white. For the fine linen are the justifications of saints.
9 Mme moengele a nthaya mafoko a: “Go sego ba ba laleditsweng modiro wa nyalo ya Kwana.” Mme a tlatsa a re, “Modimo ka boone o buile se.”
And he said to me: Write: Blessed are they that are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith to me: These words of God are true.
10 Mme ka wela fa dinaong tsa gagwe go mo obamela, mme a re, “Nnyaa! o se ka wa nkobamela! Gonne ke motlhanka wa Modimo fela jaaka wena, le jaaka bakaulengwe ba gago ba ntse mo Moreneng, ba ba supang ka tumelo ya bone mo go Jesu. Maikaelelo a seporofeso sotlhe le a gotlhe mo ke go go supegeditseng ke go bolela kaga Jesu.”
And I fell down before his feet, to adore him. And he saith to me: See thou do it not: I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren, who have the testimony of Jesus. Adore God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11 Mme ka bona legodimo le bulegile mme pitse e tshweu e eme gone; Mme leina la yo o neng a palame pitse e ne e le “Boikanyego le Boammaaruri”, ene yo o atlholang a bo a dira ntwa ka tshiamo.
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called faithful and true, and with justice doth he judge and fight.
12 Matlho a gagwe a ne a tshwana le dikgabo tsa molelo, mme mo tlhogong ya gagwe ga bo go le dirwalo tse dintsi. Leina le ne le kwadilwe mo phatleng ya gagwe, mme ya bo e le ene fela yo o itseng tlhaloso ya lone.
And his eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many diadems, and he had a name written, which no man knoweth but himself.
13 O ne a apere diaparo tse di innweng mo mading, mme leina la gagwe e ne e le “Lefoko la Modimo.”
And he was clothed with a garment sprinkled with blood; and his name is called, THE WORD OF GOD.
14 Mme dintwa tsa legodimo, di apere letsela le le borethe, le le phepa le le sweu, tsa mo sala morago di palame dipitse tse di tshweu.
And the armies that are in heaven followed him on white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 Mo molomong wa gagwe a bo a tshotse chaka e e bogale go kgemetha dichaba; o ne a di busa ka thobane ya tshipi; mme a gataka segatisetso sa mofine sa bogale jwa Modimo Mothata-yotlhe.
And out of his mouth proceedeth a sharp two edged sword; that with it he may strike the nations. And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness of the wrath of God the Almighty.
16 Mo kobong ya gagwe le mo seruping ga bo go kwadilwe mokwalo o: “KGOSI YA DIKGOSI LE MORENA WA BARENA.”
And he hath on his garment, and on his thigh written: KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
17 Mme ka bona moengele a eme mo letsatsing, mme a kua dinonyane ka lentswe le legolo a re, “Tlang! Phuthaganelang selalelo sa Modimo o mogolo!
And I saw an angel standing in the sun, and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that did fly through the midst of heaven: Come, gather yourselves together to the great supper of God:
18 Tlang lo jeng nama ya dikgosi, le balaodi; le banna ba ba thata; ya dipitse le bapalami; le batho botlhe, ba bannye le bagolo, batlhanka le ba ba golotsweng.”
That you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of tribunes, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all freemen and bondmen, and of little and of great.
19 Mme ka bona sebatana se se bosula se phuthile mebuso ya lefatshe le masole a yone go tlhabantsha yo o palameng pitse le masole a gagwe.
And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies gathered together to make war with him that sat upon the horse, and with his army.
20 Mme sebatana se se bosula sa tshwarwa, mmogo le Moporofiti wa tsietso, yo o neng a dira dikgakgamatso tse dikgolo fela fa sebatana se se bosula se ne se le teng, dikgakgamatso tse di tsieditseng botlhe ba ba amogetseng lotshwao lwa sebatana, le ba ba obametseng setshwantsho sa sone sa leje. Ka bobedi jwa bone, Sebatana le Moporofiti wa tsietso, ba ne ba latlhelwa mo lecheng la molelo le le tukang ka sebabole. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
21 Mme mophato otlhe wa masole wa bolawa ka chaka e e bogale e e neng e le mo molomong wa yo o palameng pitse e tshweu, le dinonyane tsotlhe tsa loapi tsa kgora nama ya bone.
And the rest were slain by the sword of him that sitteth upon the horse, which proceedeth out of his mouth; and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
