Ufunuo 10
1 Kisha nikaona malaika mwingine mkuu akishuka chini kutoka mbinguni. Alikuwa amefungwa katika wingu, na kulikuwa na upinde wa mvua juu ya kichwa chake. Uso wake ulikuwa kama jua na miguu yake ilikuwa kama nguzo za moto.
And I saw another strong angel coming down out of the heaven, clothed with a cloud, and the rainbow upon his head, and his countenance as the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire,
2 Alishikilia gombo dogo katika mkono wake lililokuwa limefunuliwa, naye aliweka mguu wake wa kulia juu ya bahari na mguu wake wa kushoto juu ya nchi kavu.
and having in his hand a little opened book. And he set his right foot on the sea, and the left upon the earth,
3 Kisha alipaza sauti ya juu kama simba aungurumapo, na wakati alipopaza sauti radi saba ziliunguruma.
and cried with a loud voice as a lion roars. And when he cried, the seven thunders uttered their own voices.
4 Wakati radi saba zilipounguruma, nilikuwa nakaribia kuandika, lakini nilisikia sauti kutoka mbinguni ikisema, “Tunza iwe siri kile ambacho radi saba zimesema. Usiiandike.”
And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write: and I heard a voice out of the heaven saying, Seal the things which the seven thunders have spoken, and write them not.
5 Kisha malaika niliyemwona amesimama juu ya bahari na nchi kavu, aliinua mkono wake juu mbinguni
And the angel whom I saw stand on the sea and on the earth lifted up his right hand to the heaven,
6 na kuapa kwa yule aishiye milele na milele —aliyeumba mbingu na vyote vilivyomo, dunia na vyote vilivyomo, na bahari na vyote vilivyomo: “Hakutakuwepo kuchelewa tena. (aiōn g165)
and swore by him that lives to the ages of ages, who created the heaven and the things that are in it, and the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there should be no longer delay; (aiōn g165)
7 Lakini katika siku ile, wakati malaika wa saba atakapokaribia kupiga tarumbeta yake, ndipo siri ya Mungu itakuwa imetimizwa, kama alivyotangaza kwa watumishi wake manabii.”
but in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he is about to sound the trumpet, the mystery of God also shall be completed, as he has made known the glad tidings to his own bondmen the prophets.
8 Sauti niliyosikia kutoka mbinguni iliniambia tena: “Nenda, chukua gombo dogo lililofunuliwa ambalo kiko katika mkono wa malaika aliyesimama juu ya bahari na juu ya nchi kavu.”
And the voice which I heard out of the heaven [was] again speaking with me, and saying, Go, take the little book which is opened in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the earth.
9 Kisha nilikwenda kwa malaika na kumwambia anipe gombo dogo. Aliniambia, “Chukua gombo na ule. Litalifanya tumbo lako liwe na uchungu, lakini katika mdomo wako litakuwa tamu kama asali.”
And I went to the angel, saying to him to give me the little book. And he says to me, Take and eat it up: and it shall make thy belly bitter, but in thy mouth it shall be sweet as honey.
10 Nilichukua gombo dogo kutoka mkononi mwa malaika na kulila. Lilikuwa kitamu kama asali katika mdomo wangu, lakini baada ya kula, tumbo langu lilikuwa na uchungu.
And I took the little book out of the hand of the angel, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth as honey, sweet; and when I had eaten it my belly was made bitter.
11 Kisha baadhi ya sauti ziliniambia, “Unapaswa kutabiri tena kuhusu watu wengi, mataifa, lugha, na wafalme.”
And it was said to me, Thou must prophesy again as to peoples and nations and tongues and many kings.
