Ufunuo 14
1 Nilitazama na nikaona Mwana Kondoo amesimama mbele yangu juu ya Mlima Sayuni. Pamoja naye walikuwa 144, 000 wenye jina lake na jina la Baba yake limeandikwa katika vipaji vya nyuso zao.
And wow, I saw a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His name and His Father's name written on their foreheads.
2 Nikasikia sauti kutoka mbinguni ikisikika kama ngurumo za maji mengi na sauti kubwa ya radi. Sauti niliyoisikia ni kama wapiga vinubi wapigao vinubi vyao.
And I heard a sound from the sky, like the sound of many waters, and like the sound of loud thunder; and the sound that I heard was like harpists playing on their harps.
3 Wakiimba wimbo mpya mbele za kiti cha enzi na mbele za wenye uhai wanne na wazee. Hakuna hata mwenye uwezo wa kujifunza huo wimbo isipokuwa kwa 144, 000 ambao wamekombolewa kutoka duniani.
And they sing a new song before the Throne, and before the four living beings and the elders; and no one was able to learn the song except the 144 thousand, who had been redeemed from the earth.
4 Hawa ni wale ambao hawakujichafua wenyewe kwa wanawake, maana walijitunza wenyewe dhidi ya matendo ya zinaa. Ni hawa ambao walimfuata Mwana Kondoo popote alipoenda. Hawa walikombolewa kutoka kwa wanadamu wakiwa matunda ya kwanza kwa Mungu na kwa Mwana Kondoo.
These are the ones not defiled with women, for they are virgins; these are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He may go. These were redeemed by Jesus from among men, firstfruits for God and for the Lamb;
5 Hakuna uongo uliopatikana katika vinywa vyao; hawalaumiwi.
no lie was found in their mouth, for they are blameless.
6 Nikaona malaika mwingine akiruka katikati ya mbingu, ambaye mwenye ujumbe wa mbinguni wa habari njema kwa kuwatangazia wenye kuishi duniani kwa kila taifa, kabila, lugha, na watu. (aiōnios g166)
And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, having an eternal gospel to be proclaimed to those who reside on the earth—to every ethnic nation and tribe and language and people— (aiōnios g166)
7 Akawaita kwa sauti kuu, “Mwogopeni Mungu na mpeni utukufu. Kwa maana muda wa hukumu umekaribia. Mwabuduni yeye, yeye aliyeumba mbingu, na dunia, na bahari, na chemchemi za maji.”
saying with a loud voice, “Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judging has come, and do obeisance to Him who made heaven and earth, the ocean and springs of water.”
8 Malaika mwingine - malaika wa pili - akafuata akisema, “Umeanguka, umeanguka Babeli mkuu, ambaye uliwanywesha mataifa divai ya ukahaba, divai ambayo ilileta ghadhabu juu yake.”
And another, a second, angel followed, saying: “It fell, it fell, Babylon the great!—she made all the nations drink of the wine of the rage of her fornication.”
9 Malaika mwingine - malaika wa tatu - aliwafuata, akasema kwa sauti kuu, “Yeyote atakayemwabudu huyo mnyama na sanamu yake, na kupokea alama katika paji lake la uso au mkononi,
And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a loud voice: “If anyone worships the Beast and his image, and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand,
10 yeye pia atakunywa divai ya ghadhabu ya Mungu, divai ambayo imeandaliwa na kumwagwa bila kuchanganywa katika kikombe cha hasira yake. Mtu atakayekunywa atateswa kwa moto na moto wa kiberiti mbele za malaika zake watakatifu na mbele za Mwana Kondoo.
really, he will drink of the wine of the fury of God, mixed at full strength in the cup of His wrath. In fact, he will be tormented with fire and sulfur before the holy angels and before the Lamb.”
11 Na moshi wa maumivu yao ukaenda milele na milele, na hawakuwa na mapumziko mchana au usiku - hao waabuduo mnyama na sanamu yake, na kila mtu aliyepokea alama ya jina lake. (aiōn g165)
So the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever, and they have no rest day or night, those who worship the Beast and his image, and whoever receives the mark of his name. (aiōn g165)
12 Huu ni wito wa subira na uvumilivu kwa waamini, wale ambao hutii amri za Mungu na imani katika Yesu.”
Here is the endurance of the saints, here those who keep the commands of God and the faith of Jesus.
13 Nilisikia sauti kutoka mbinguni ikisema, “Andika haya: Heri wafu wafao katika Bwana.” “Ndiyo,” asema Roho, “ili waweze kupumzika kutoka kwenye kazi zao, maana matendo yao yatawafuata.”
I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on’ (“Yes” says the Spirit), ‘so that they may rest from their labors, and their works follow along with them.’”
14 Nilitazama na nikaona kulikuwa na wingu jeupe, na aliyeketi kwenye wingu ni mmoja aliyekuwa na mfano wa Mwana wa Mtu. Alikuwa na taji ya dhahabu katika kichwa chake na mundu mkali katika mkono wake.
And wow, I saw a white cloud, and someone like a son of man was sitting on the cloud, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
15 Malaika mwingine tena alikuja kutoka kwenye hekalu na aliita kwa sauti kuu kwenda kwa yule aliyekaa katika wingu: “Chukua mundu wako na uanze kuvuna. Kwa kuwa muda wa mavuno umeshawadia, maana mavuno yaliyo katika dunia yameshaiva.”
And another angel came out of the temple crying out with a loud voice to the one sitting on the cloud, “Thrust in your sickle and reap, for the time to reap has come, because the harvest of the earth is dry.”
16 Tena yule aliyekuwa kwenye wingu aliupitisha mundu wake juu ya dunia, na dunia ikavunwa.
So the one sitting on the cloud swung his sickle upon the earth, and the earth was harvested.
17 Na malaika mwingine akaja kutoka kwenye hekalu la mbinguni; naye alikuwa na mundu mkali.
Then another angel came out of the temple (the one in heaven), he too having a sharp sickle.
18 Na bado malaika mwingine akaja kutoka kwenye madhabahu, na malaika aliyekuwa na mamlaka juu ya moto. Akamwita kwa sauti kuu malaika ambaye alikuwa na mundu mkali, “Chukua mundu mkali na uyakusanye matawi ya mzabibu kutoka kwenye mzabibu wa nchi, kwa kuwa zabibu sasa zimeiva.”
And another angel came out from the altar (having authority over the fire), and he called out with a loud cry to the one having the sharp sickle saying, “Thrust in your sharp sickle and gather the grape clusters of the vine of the earth, because her grapes are ripe.”
19 Malaika alipeleka mundu wake katika dunia na alikusanya mavuno ya zabibu ya dunia na alirusha katika pipa kubwa la divai ya ghadhabu ya Mungu.
So the angel swung his sickle at the earth and gathered the vine of the earth and threw it into the winepress of God's terrible fury.
20 Chujio la divai lilipondwapondwa nje ya mji na damu ikamwagika kutoka katika hicho kimo cha hatamu ya farasi, kwa stadia 1, 600.
And the winepress was trampled outside the city, and blood came out of the winepress up to the horses' bridles, for a thousand six hundred stadia.
