Ufunuo 10
1 Kisha nikamwona malaika mwingine mwenye nguvu akishuka kutoka mbinguni. Alikuwa amevikwa wingu na upinde wa mvua juu ya kichwa chake. Uso wake ulingʼaa kama jua na miguu yake ilikuwa kama nguzo za moto.
And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow [was] upon his head, and his face [was] as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
2 Mkononi mwake alikuwa ameshika kijitabu kilichokuwa kimefunguliwa. Akauweka mguu wake wa kuume juu ya bahari na mguu wake wa kushoto akauweka juu ya nchi kavu.
And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and [his] left [foot] on the earth,
3 Naye akapiga kelele kwa sauti kuu kama simba anayenguruma. Alipopiga kelele, zile radi saba zikatoa ngurumo zake.
And cried with a loud voice, as [when] a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
4 Nazo zile radi saba zilipotoa ngurumo, nilitaka kuanza kuandika, lakini nikasikia sauti kutoka mbinguni ikisema, “Yatie muhuri hayo yaliyosemwa na hizo radi saba na usiyaandike.”
And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.
5 Kisha yule malaika niliyekuwa nimemwona akiwa amesimama juu ya bahari na juu ya nchi akainua mkono wake wa kuume kuelekea mbinguni.
And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
6 Naye akaapa kwa Yule aishiye milele na milele, aliyeumba mbingu na vyote vilivyomo, dunia na vyote viijazavyo, pamoja na bahari na vyote vilivyomo ndani yake, akasema, “Hakuna kungoja tena! (aiōn g165)
And swore by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that are in it, and the earth, and the things that are in it, and the sea, and the things which are in it, that there should be time no longer: (aiōn g165)
7 Lakini katika siku zile ambazo huyo malaika wa saba atakapokaribia kuipiga hiyo tarumbeta yake, siri ya Mungu itatimizwa, kama vile alivyowatangazia watumishi wake manabii.”
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
8 Ndipo ile sauti niliyokuwa nimeisikia kutoka mbinguni ikasema nami tena ikaniambia, “Nenda, chukua kile kitabu kilichofunguliwa kilichoko mkononi mwa yule malaika aliyesimama juu ya bahari na juu ya nchi kavu.”
And the voice which I heard from heaven spoke to me again, and said, Go, [and] take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.
9 Basi nikamwendea nikamwomba yule malaika anipe kile kitabu kidogo. Akaniambia, “Chukua na ukile. Kitakuwa kichungu tumboni mwako, lakini kinywani mwako kitakuwa kitamu kama asali.”
And I went to the angel, and said to him, Give me the little book. And he said to me, Take [it], and eat it, and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.
10 Hivyo nikakichukua kile kitabu kidogo kutoka mkononi mwa yule malaika nikakila. Kilikuwa kitamu kama asali kinywani mwangu, lakini baada ya kukila, tumbo langu likatiwa uchungu.
And I took the little book out of the angel's hand, and ate it; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it my belly was bitter.
11 Kisha nikaambiwa, “Imekupasa kutoa unabii tena kuhusu makabila mengi, mataifa, lugha na wafalme.”
And he said to me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and languages, and kings.
