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,
And after these things I heard a great voice of many people in heaven, saying, Alleluia: Salvation, and glory, and honor, and power, to 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 hath judged the great harlot, who corrupted the earth with her lewdness, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
3 Wakasema tena kwa nguvu: “Haleluya! Moshi wake huyo kahaba unapanda juu milele na milele.” (aiōn g165)
And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose up for ever 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!”
And the four and twenty elders and the four living beings fell down and worshiped God who sat on the throne, saying, Amen; Alleluia.
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 out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both 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 as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
7 Tufurahi, tushangilie na kumpa utukufu! Kwa maana arusi ya Mwana-Kondoo imewadia na bibi arusi wake amejiweka tayari.
Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honor to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8 Akapewa kitani safi, nyeupe inayongʼaa, ili avae.” (Hiyo kitani safi inawakilisha matendo ya haki ya watakatifu.)
And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of 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 saith to me, Write, Blessed [are] they who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith to me, These are the true sayings 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 at his feet to worship him. And he said to me, See [thou do it] not: I am thy fellow-servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit 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 behold, a white horse; and he that sat upon him [was] called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth 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 [were] as a flame of fire, and on his head [were] many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
13 Amevaa joho lililochoviwa katika damu, na Jina lake ni “Neno la Mungu.”
And he [was] clothed with 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 [which were] in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
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 out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the wine-press of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
16 Kwenye joho lake na paja lake pameandikwa jina hili: Mfalme wa wafalme, na Bwana wa mabwana.
And he hath on [his] vesture and on his thigh 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; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come, and assemble yourselves to the supper of the great 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.”
That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all [men], [both] free and bond, both 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, assembled to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against 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 remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which [sword] proceedeth out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.
