Zvakazarurwa 9
1 Mutumwa wechishanu akaridza hwamanda yake, ndikaona nyeredzi yakanga yawira panyika ichibva kudenga. Nyeredzi yakapiwa kiyi yegomba rakadzika zvisina mugumo. (Abyssos g12)
And the fifth angel sounded; and I saw a Star fall from the heaven to the earth; and there was given to him the key of the bottomless pit. (Abyssos g12)
2 Akati azarura gomba rakadzika zvisina mugumo, utsi hwakabuda mariri soutsi hunobva muvira guru romoto. Zuva nomwedzi zvakasvibiswa noutsi hwaibva mugomba rakadzika zvisina mugumo. (Abyssos g12)
And he opened the bottomless pit, and smoke ascended from the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace: and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke of the pit. (Abyssos g12)
3 Uye muutsi makabuda mhashu dzikauya panyika uye dzikapiwa simba rakaita serezvinyavada zvenyika.
And out of the smoke there came locusts upon the earth; and power was given to them, as scorpions of the earth have power.
4 Dzakaudzwa kuti dzirege kuparadza uswa hwenyika kana zvirimwa, kana miti ipi zvayo, asi vanhu vaya chete vakanga vasina chisimbiso chaMwari pahuma dzavo.
And it was said to them that they should not injure the grass of the earth, nor any green thing, nor any tree; but the men who had not the seal of God in their foreheads.
5 Hadzina kupiwa simba rokuvauraya, asi kungovarwadzisa chete kwemwedzi mishanu. Uye kurwadziwa kwavo kwakanga kwakaita sokworumborera rwechinyavada pachinoruma munhu.
And it was not given to them to kill them, but to torment them five months: and their torment was like that of a scorpion when it stings a man.
6 Mumazuva iwayo vanhu vachatsvaka rufu, asi havangaruwani; vachashuva kufa asi kufa kuchavanzvenga.
And in these days men shall seek death, and shall not find it: and they shall desire to die, and death shall fly from them.
7 Mhashu dzakanga dzakaita samabhiza agadzirirwa kundorwa. Pamisoro yadzo dzakanga dzakapfeka zvinhu zvinenge korona yegoridhe, uye zviso zvadzo zvakaita sezvavanhu.
And the resemblance of the locusts was like horses prepared for war; and on their heads were, as it were, crowns of gold; and and their faces were like the faces of men:
8 Bvudzi radzo rakanga rakaita sebvudzi romukadzi, uye meno adzo akanga akaita semeno eshumba.
and they had tresses, like the tresses of women; and their teeth were like the teeth of lions.
9 Dzakanga dzine zvidzitiro zvechipfuva zvakaita sezvidzitiro zvesimbi, uye mubvumo wamapapiro wakanga wakaita sokutinhira kwengoro namabhiza mazhinji ari kumhanyira kundorwa.
And they had breastplates like breastplates of iron; and the noise of their wings was like the noise of chariots, and many horses rushing to war.
10 Dzakanga dzine miswe norumborera sorwezvinyavada, uye mumiswe yadzo dzakanga dzine simba rokurwadzisa vanhu kwemwedzi mishanu.
And they had tails like scorpions, and their stings were in their tails; and their power was to hurt men five months.
11 Dzakanga dzino mutumwa wegomba rakadzika zvisina mugumo, samambo wadzo, zita rake muchiHebheru ndiAbhadhoni, uye muchiGiriki, ndiAporioni. (Abyssos g12)
For they had a king over them, the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name, in the Hebrew language, is Abaddon; and in the Greek, he has the name Apollyon. (Abyssos g12)
12 Nhamo yokutanga yapfuura; dzimwe nhamo mbiri dziri kutevera.
One woe is gone, and behold other two woes, besides it, yet coming.
13 Mutumwa wechitanhatu akaridza hwamanda yake, ndikanzwa inzwi richibuda munyanga dzearitari yegoridhe iri pamberi paMwari.
And the sixth angel sounded; and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which was before God,
14 Rakati kumutumwa wechitanhatu akanga ane hwamanda, “Sunungura vatumwa vana, vakasungwa parwizi rukuru Yufuratesi.”
saying to the sixth angel, who had the trumpet, Loose the four angels who are bound by the great river Euphrates.
15 Uye vatumwa vana vakanga vakagadzirirwa zveawa yacho iyoyo, zuva iroro, mwedzi iwoyo, negore iroro, vakasunungurwa kuti vauraye chikamu chimwe chete muzvitatu chamarudzi avanhu.
And the four angels were loosed, who were prepared for an hour, and a day, and a month, and a year, to kill a third part of men.
16 Kuwanda kwavarwi vamabhiza kwaiva mamiriyoni mazana maviri. Ndakanzwa kuwanda kwavo.
And the number of the horsemen was two myriads of myriads: I heard the number of them.
17 Mabhiza navatasvi vandakaona muchiratidzo changu vakanga vakadai: Zvidzitiro zvavo zvechipfuva zvakanga zviri zvitsvuku, nezvitema, uye zviri yero sesafuri. Misoro yamabhiza yakanga yakafanana nemisoro yeshumba, uye mumuromo mazvo maibuda moto, noutsi nesafuri.
And I saw the horses, and those who sat upon them, thus in their appearance; having breastplates of fire, and hyacinth, and brimstone: and the heads of the horses were like the heads of lions, and out of their mouths went fire, and smoke, and brimstone.
18 Chikamu chimwe chete muzvitatu chamarudzi avanhu chakaurayiwa namatambudziko matatu omoto, utsi nesafuri zvakabuda mumiromo yawo.
With these three--by the fire, by the smoke, and by the brimstone--that went out of their mouths, they slew a third part of men.
19 Simba ramabhiza rakanga riri mumiromo yawo nomumiswe yawo; nokuti miswe yawo yakanga yakaita senyoka, ine misoro yaayiruma nayo.
And their powers are in their mouths, and in their tails; and their tails are like serpents, having heads, and with them they injure.
20 Vakasara vavanhu vasina kuurayiwa namatambudziko aya havana kutendeuka pabasa ramaoko avo; havana kurega kunamata madhimoni, nokunamata zvifananidzo zvegoridhe, sirivha, nendarira, matombo namatanda, zvifananidzo zvisingagoni kuona, kunzwa kana kufamba.
Yet the remainder of men, who died not by these plagues, did not reform from the works of their hands, that they might not worship demons, and idols of gold, and silver, and brass, and stone, and wood; which can neither see, nor hear, nor walk.
21 Uye havana kutendeuka muumhondi hwavo, pauroyi hwavo, napaupombwe hwavo, kana kuba kwavo.
And they reformed not from their murders, and their magical incantations; nor from their fornication, nor their thefts.
