Ufunuo 20

1 Kisha niliona malaika akishuka kutoka mbinguni, akiwa na ufunguo wa shimo lisilo na mwisho na mnyororo mkubwa mkononi mwake. (Abyssos g12)

Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven with the key to the Abyss, holding in his hand a great chain. (Abyssos g12)

2 Alimshika yule joka, nyoka wa zamani, ambaye ni ibilisi au Shetani, na kumfunga miaka elfu.

He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years.

3 Alimtupa kwenye shimo lisilo na mwisho, akalifunga na kulitia mhuri juu yake. Hii ilikuwa hivyo ili kwamba asiwadanganye mataifa tena mpaka miaka elfu itakapoisha. Baada ya hapo, ataachiwa huru kwa muda mchache. (Abyssos g12)

And he threw him into the Abyss, shut it, and sealed it over him, so that he could not deceive the nations until the thousand years were complete. After that, he must be released for a brief period of time. (Abyssos g12)

4 Kisha niliona viti vya enzi. Waliokuwa wamevikalia ni wale ambao walikuwa wamepewa mamlaka ya kuhukumu. Vilevile niliona nafsi za wale ambao walikuwa wamekatwa vichwa kwa ajili ya ushuhuda kuhusu Yesu na kwa neno la Mungu. Walikuwa hawajamwabudu mnyama au sanamu yake, na walikataa kupokea alama juu ya paji za nyuso zao au mkono. Walikuja uzimani, na wakatawala pamoja na Kristo kwa miaka elfu.

Then I saw the thrones, and those seated on them had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image, and had not received its mark on their foreheads or hands. And they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

5 Wafu waliobaki hawakuja uzimani mpaka miaka elfu ilipokuwa imeisha. Huu ndio ufufuo wa kwanza.

The rest of the dead did not come back to life until the thousand years were complete. This is the first resurrection.

6 Mbarikiwa na mtakatifu ni mtu yeyote ambaye achukua nafasi katika ufufuo wa kwanza! Mauti ya pili haina nguvu juu ya watu kama hawa. Patakuwa na makuhani wa Mungu na wa Kristo na watatawala na yeye kwa miaka elfu.

Blessed and holy are those who share in the first resurrection! The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with Him for a thousand years.

7 Wakati miaka elfu itakapofikia mwisho, Shetani atafunguliwa kutoka gerezani mwake.

When the thousand years are complete, Satan will be released from his prison,

8 Atakwenda nje kuwadanganya mataifa katika kona nne za dunia -Gogu na Magogu - kuwaleta pamoja kwa ajili ya vita. Watakuwa wengi kama mchanga wa bahari.

and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—to assemble them for battle. Their number is like the sand of the seashore.

9 Walikwenda juu kwenye tambarare ya nchi nao walizunguka kambi ya waumini, mji upendwao. Lakini moto ulikuja kutoka mbinguni na kuwaangamiza.

And they marched across the broad expanse of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. But fire came down from heaven and consumed them.

10 Shetani, ambaye aliwadanganya, alitupwa ndani ya ziwa liwakalo kiberiti, ambamo mnyama na nabii wa uongo walikuwa wameshatupwa. Watateswa mchana na usiku milele na milele. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)

And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)

11 Kisha niliona kiti cha enzi kikubwa cheupe na yule ambaye alikaa juu yake. Dunia na mbingu zilikimbia mbali kutoka katika uwepo wake, lakini hapakuwako nafasi ya wao kwenda.

Then I saw a great white throne and the One seated on it. Earth and heaven fled from His presence, and no place was found for them.

12 Niliwaona waliokufa - hodari na wasio wa muhimu wamesimama katika kiti cha enzi, na vitabu vilifunuliwa. Kisha kitabu kingine kilifunguliwa - Kitabu cha Uzima. Wafu walihukumiwa kwa kile kilichoandikwa ndani ya vitabu, matokeo ya kile walichokifanya.

And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne. And there were open books, and one of them was the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their deeds, as recorded in the books.

13 Bahari iliwatoa wafu ambao walikuwa ndani yake. Kifo na kuzimu viliwatoa wafu ambao walikuwa ndani yake, na wafu walihukumiwa kulingana na walichofanya. (Hadēs g86)

The sea gave up its dead, and Death and Hades gave up their dead, and each one was judged according to his deeds. (Hadēs g86)

14 Kifo na kuzimu zilitupwa ndani ya ziwa la moto. Hii ni mauti ya pili - ziwa la moto. (Hadēs g86, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)

Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death—the lake of fire. (Hadēs g86, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)

15 Kama jina la yeyote halikupatikana limeandikwa ndani ya Kitabu cha Uzima, alitupwa ndani ya ziwa la moto. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)

And if anyone was found whose name was not written in the Book of Life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
