< Muujintii 17 >

1 Markaasaa waxaa timid toddobadii malaa'igood oo toddobada fijaan haystay middood, oo way ila hadashay, waxayna igu tidhi, Kaalay halkan, waxaan ku tusi doonaa xukunka dhillada weyn oo biyaha badan ku dul fadhida,
One of the seven angels, who had [one of] the seven bowls, came to me. He said to me, “Come [with me], and I will show you how [God] will punish the very evil [city that is represented by] [SYM] a prostitute, a city in which there are many canals [of] water.
2 taasoo boqorrada dunidu ay ka sinaysteen, oo kuwa dunida degganuna ay khamrigii sinadeeda ku sakhraameen.
[It is as though] the rulers of earth have acted immorally [and idolatrously] with the people of that city [MET], and they [have persuaded people] who live on the earth to act immorally [and idolatrously] with them [MET], [just like a prostitute persuades men to drink] the [strong] wine [she gives them, resulting in their] becoming drunk [and] then committing sexual immorality. with her.”
3 Markaasay waxay igu qaadday Ruuxa, oo waxay i geeysay cidlada; markaasaan arkay naag fuushan bahal guduudan oo ay ka buuxaan magacyo cay ahu, oo wuxuu lahaa toddoba madax iyo toban gees.
Then, as [God’s] Spirit [controlled me], the angel carried me away to a desolate area. There I saw a woman who was sitting on a red beast. The beast had names [written] all over itself. They were names that (insulted/spoke evil against) [God]. The beast had seven heads and ten horns.
4 Oo naagtuna waxay qabtay dhar midabkiisu yahay casaan iyo guduud, oo waxaa kaloo ay ku sharraxnayd dahab iyo dhagaxyo qaali ah iyo luul, oo waxay gacanta ku haysatay koob dahab ah oo waxyaalihii karaahiyada ahaa ka buuxaan, kuwaas oo ahaa waxyaalihii nijaasta ahaa oo sinadeeda,
The woman [that I saw] was wearing purple and red [clothes]; and gold, precious stones, and pearls were fastened to her [clothes and her body]. She held in her hand a golden cup. The cup was full of [a liquid that represents] [SYM] the detestable/disgusting, idolatrous things and filthy immoral things that she [does].
5 oo waxaa wejiga ugu qornaa magac ah qarsoodi, oo ah Baabuloonta weyn ee hooyada u ah dhillooyinka iyo waxyaalaha karaahiyada ah oo dunida.
This name, that has a hidden/secret [meaning], was written on her forehead: “[This woman is] Babylon, the very evil [city! She acts like] the mother of the prostitutes on the earth. She teaches them to [act] immorally and to worship idols.”
6 Markaasaan arkay naagtii oo ku sakhraantay dhiiggii quduusiinta iyo dhiiggii kuwii Ciise u markhaati furay. Oo markaan iyadii arkay ayaan aad ula yaabay.
I saw that the woman had become drunk as a result of drinking the blood of God’s people, those who had told others about Jesus. When I saw her, I was very bewildered/perplexed.
7 Markaasaa malaa'igtii waxay igu tidhi, War, maxaad u yaabtay? Waxaan kuu sheegi doonaa qarsoodiga naagta iyo bahalka iyada sida oo leh toddobada madax iyo tobanka gees.
The angel said to me, “Do not be bewildered [RHQ]! I will explain to you the hidden/secret meaning of the woman and of the beast on which she rides, the beast that has the seven heads and the ten horns.
8 Bahalkii aad aragtay wuu jiray, haddase ma jiro; oo wuxuu dhowaan ka soo bixi doonaa yamayska, oo wuxuu tegi doonaa halaag. Oo kuwa dhulka jooga oo aan magacooda lagu qorin kitaabka nolosha waagii dunida la aasaasay, markay bahalka arkaan waxay la yaabi doonaan siduu markii hore u jiray, oo uusan haatan u jirin, oo uu hadda ka dib u jiri doono. (Abyssos g12)
The beast that you saw [lived] previously. Eventually God will destroy him, but now he is dead. He is [about to] come up (from the underworld/from the deep dark pit). [When] the beast who had previously lived, and who then had died, reappears, the people who live on the earth will be amazed. [They are people whose] names were not in the book in which are written the names of people [who will] have eternal life. [The angels have been writing those names in a list] (from the beginning of the world/from the time when the world began). (Abyssos g12)
9 Waa kan maanka xigmadda lihi. Toddobada madax waa toddoba buurood oo ay naagtu ku fadhiisato; oo iyagu waxa weeyaan toddoba boqor;
Those who [think] wisely [can understand] this: The seven heads [of the beast] on which the woman sits [symbolize] the seven hills [of the city that the woman represents]. They also [symbolize] seven rulers.
10 shantood way dhaceen, midna wuu joogaa, midkii kalena weli ma iman; oo markuu yimaado, in yar buu sii jiri doonaa.
Five [of those rulers] have died. One is [still alive]. The seventh [ruler] has not yet come. When he comes, he must remain on earth for [only] a short [time].
11 Oo bahalkii markii hore jiray oo aan haatan jirin, isaga qudhiisuna waa mid siddeedaad oo toddobaduu ka mid yahay; oo wuxuu tegi doonaa halaag.
The beast that [lived] before and then was not [alive] will be the eighth [ruler]. He will be [evil like] the seven [rulers were, but God] will surely destroy him.
12 Oo tobankii gees oo aad aragtay waa toban boqor, oo aan weli helin boqortooyo; laakiinse intii saacad ah waxay amar la heleen bahalka sida boqorro oo kale.
The ten horns that you saw [represent] ten rulers who have not yet begun to rule. They, together with the beast, will be authorized to rule [people for only a short time, as if it were] [MET] for one hour.
13 Kuwanu waa isku maan, oo iyagu xooggooda iyo amarkooda waxay siiyeen bahalka.
Those [rulers] will all agree to do the same thing. [As a result] they will give to the beast their power [to rule people] as well as their authority [to rule people] [DOU].
14 Kuwaasu waxay la diriri doonaan Wanka, oo Wankuna wuu ka adkaan doonaa, maxaa yeelay, isagu waa Sayidka sayidyada iyo Boqorka boqorrada; oo haddana kuwa isaga la jira waa kuwa loo yeedhay, oo la doortay, oo aaminiinta ah.
The rulers and the beast will fight against [Jesus], the [one who is like a] lamb. He will defeat them, because he is Lord [who rules over all other] lords and the King [who rules over all other] kings. Those [people] who are with [and helping him] are the ones whom [God] has chosen, and who keep [serving him] faithfully.”
15 Markaasay waxay igu tidhi, Biyihii aad aragtay oo ay dhilladu ku dul fadhiday waxa weeyaan dadad iyo maqluuqyo iyo quruumo iyo afaf.
Then the angel said to me, “The waters that you saw in the city where the prostitute sits represent people-[groups], multitudes [of people], nations, and [speakers of many languages] [MTY].
16 Oo tobankii gees oo aad aragtay iyo bahalkii waxay nebcaan doonaan dhillada, oo iyada way bi'in doonaan oo qaawin doonaan, oo hilibkeedana way cuni doonaan, oo kulligeedna waxay ku gubi doonaan dab.
The ten horns that you saw [represent rulers] [SYM]. They and the beast will hate [the people in the city] [MTY] that the prostitute [represents]. As a result, they will [take away everything that is in the city, as if] they were [MET] leaving it naked. They will [destroy it as if] [MET] devouring flesh/meat, and they will burn it with fire.
17 Waayo, Ilaah wuxuu qalbigooda geliyey inay yeelaan fikirkiisa, oo ay isku maan ahaadaan, oo ay boqortooyadooda bahalka siiyaan ilamaa erayada Ilaah ay kaamil noqdaan.
They will do that because God has caused them to decide to do what he wants them to do. As a result, they will let the beast have their power to rule until what God has said is fulfilled {until [they] fulfill what God has said} [MTY].
18 Oo naagtii aad aragtayna waxa weeye magaalada weyn oo u talisa boqorrada dhulka.
The prostitute that you saw [represents] the very evil city [whose leaders] [MTY] rule over the kings of the earth.”
