Ufunuo 19
1 Baada ya haya nikasikia sauti kama ya umati mkubwa mbinguni wakipiga kelele wakisema: “Haleluya! Wokovu na utukufu na uweza ni vya Mungu wetu,
After this I heard the semblance of the mighty voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying. "Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power Unto the Lord our God!
2 kwa maana hukumu zake ni za kweli na za haki. Amemhukumu yule kahaba mkuu aliyeuharibu ulimwengu kwa uzinzi wake. Mungu amemlipiza kisasi kwa ajili ya damu ya watumishi wake.”
For true and righteous are his judgments; For he has judged the great harlot Who was corrupting the earth with her fornication. On her he has avenged the blood of his slaves."
3 Wakasema tena kwa nguvu: “Haleluya! Moshi wake huyo kahaba unapanda juu milele na milele.” (aiōn g165)
And a second time they said. "Allelulia! For the smoke of her torment goes up forever and ever!" (aiōn g165)
4 Wale wazee ishirini na wanne pamoja na wale viumbe wanne wenye uhai wakaanguka kifudifudi, wakamwabudu Mungu, aliyekuwa ameketi kwenye kile kiti cha enzi. Wakasema kwa sauti kuu: “Amen, Haleluya!”
Then the four and twenty Elders and the four beasts fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne, saying, "Amen, Hallelujah!"
5 Kisha sauti ikatoka katika kile kiti cha enzi, ikisema: “Msifuni Mungu wetu, ninyi watumishi wake wote, ninyi nyote mnaomcha, wadogo kwa wakubwa!”
And a voice came forth from the throne, saying, "Praise our God, all you his slaves, All you who fear him, small and great!"
6 Kisha nikasikia sauti kama ya umati mkubwa, kama sauti ya maji mengi yaendayo kasi na kama ngurumo kubwa ya radi wakipiga kelele wakisema: “Haleluya! Kwa maana Bwana Mungu wetu Mwenyezi anatawala.
And I heard a sound like the voice of a great multitude, and like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of mighty thunderings, saying. "Alleluia, for the Lord God omnipotent reigns!
7 Tufurahi, tushangilie na kumpa utukufu! Kwa maana arusi ya Mwana-Kondoo imewadia na bibi arusi wake amejiweka tayari.
Let us rejoice and triumph and give him the glory; For the marriage of the Lamb is come, And his bride has made herself ready,
8 Akapewa kitani safi, nyeupe inayongʼaa, ili avae.” (Hiyo kitani safi inawakilisha matendo ya haki ya watakatifu.)
And it has been granted to her to array herself in fine linen, bright and pure; For the fine linen is the righteous deeds of the saints."
9 Ndipo malaika akaniambia, “Andika: ‘Wamebarikiwa wale walioalikwa kwenye karamu ya arusi ya Mwana-Kondoo!’” Naye akaongeza kusema, “Haya ndiyo maneno ya kweli ya Mungu.”
And he said to me, Write, "Blessed are those who have been bidden to the marriage supper of the Lamb." And he said to me, "These are true words of God."
10 Ndipo nikaanguka kifudifudi miguuni pake ili kumwabudu, lakini yeye akaniambia, “Usifanye hivyo! Mimi pia ni mtumishi mwenzako pamoja na ndugu zako walio na ushuhuda wa Yesu. Mwabudu Mungu! Maana ushuhuda wa Yesu ndio roho ya unabii.”
And I fell down at his feet to worship him, and he said to me. "See that you do it not. I am a fellow slave of yours and of your brothers who hold the testimony of Jesus; for the testimony of Jesus is the vital breath of prophecy."
11 Kisha nikaona mbingu imefunguka na hapo mbele yangu akiwepo farasi mweupe, ambaye yeye aliyempanda aliitwa Mwaminifu na Kweli. Yeye huhukumu kwa haki na kufanya vita.
And I saw heaven opened, and lo! a white horse; and he who sat upon him was named "Faithful and True"; and in righteousness does he judge and make war.
12 Macho yake ni kama miali ya moto na juu ya kichwa chake kuna taji nyingi. Ana jina lililoandikwa ambalo hakuna mtu yeyote anayelijua isipokuwa yeye mwenyewe.
His eyes are a flame of fire, and upon his head are many diadems; and he has a name written, which none knows but himself.
13 Amevaa joho lililochoviwa katika damu, na Jina lake ni “Neno la Mungu.”
He is clothed in a vesture dipped in blood; and his name is called, THE WORD OF GOD
14 Majeshi ya mbinguni walikuwa wakimfuata, wakiwa wamepanda farasi weupe, hali wamevaa mavazi ya kitani safi, nyeupe na nzuri.
And the armies of heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and pure.
15 Kinywani mwake hutoka upanga mkali ambao kwa huo atayaangusha mataifa. “Atayatawala kwa fimbo yake ya utawala ya chuma.” Hulikanyaga shinikizo la mvinyo wa ghadhabu ya Mungu Mwenyezi.
And there issues from his lips a sharp sword with which to smite the nations. He shall shepherd them with a rod of iron. And he treads the winepress of the passion of the anger of Almighty God.
16 Kwenye joho lake na paja lake pameandikwa jina hili: Mfalme wa wafalme, na Bwana wa mabwana.
And on his robe and on his thigh he has a name written, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS
17 Nami nikamwona malaika amesimama ndani kwenye jua, akaita ndege wote warukao angani kwa sauti kuu, “Njooni, kusanyikeni kwa ajili ya karamu kubwa ya Mungu,
And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who shouted in a loud voice to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven, "Come, gather yourselves together to the great supper of God,
18 ili mpate kula nyama ya wafalme na ya majemadari, ya mashujaa, ya farasi na ya wapanda farasi, nyama ya wanadamu, wote walio huru na watumwa, wadogo na wakubwa.”
to eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of generals, the flesh of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all men, bond and free, small and great."
19 Kisha nikamwona yule mnyama na wafalme wa dunia pamoja na majeshi yao wakiwa wamekusanyika pamoja ili kufanya vita dhidi ya yule aliyempanda farasi pamoja na jeshi lake.
And I saw the beast and the kings of the earth and their armies gathered together to make war on him who sat on the horse and on his army.
20 Lakini yule mnyama akakamatwa pamoja na huyo nabii wa uongo ambaye alikuwa amefanya ishara kwa niaba ya huyo mnyama, ambaye kwa ishara hizi aliwadanganya wale waliopokea chapa ya huyo mnyama na kuiabudu sanamu yake. Hawa wawili wakatupwa wakiwa hai ndani ya ziwa la moto liwakalo kwa kiberiti. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
21 Wale waliosalia waliuawa kwa upanga uliotoka kinywani mwa yule aliyekuwa amempanda farasi nao ndege wote wakajishibisha kwa nyama yao.
And the rest were slain with the sword of him who sat on the horse, that sword which issued from his lips. And all the birds gorged themselves with their flesh.
