Ufunuo 16
1 Kisha nikasikia sauti kubwa kutoka Hekaluni ikiwaambia wale malaika saba, “Nendeni mkamwage mabakuli hayo saba ya ghadhabu ya Mungu duniani.”
Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, “Go pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.”
2 Basi, malaika wa kwanza akaenda akamwaga bakuli lake juu ya nchi. Mara madonda mabaya na ya kuumiza sana yakawapata wote waliokuwa na alama ya yule mnyama, na wale walioiabudu sanamu yake.
So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth. Then harmful and painful sores came upon the people who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his image.
3 Kisha malaika wa pili akamwaga bakuli lake baharini. Nayo bahari ikawa damu tupu kama damu ya mtu aliyekufa, na viumbe vyote hai baharini vikafa.
The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it turned into blood, like that of a dead person, and every living creature in the sea died.
4 Malaika wa tatu akamwaga bakuli lake katika mito na chemchemi za maji, navyo vikageuka damu.
The third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood.
5 Nikamsikia malaika msimamizi wa maji akisema, “Ewe mtakatifu, Uliyeko na uliyekuwako! Wewe ni mwenye haki katika hukumu hii uliyotoa.
And I heard the angel of the waters say, “Yoʋ are just, O Holy One, who is and who was, for yoʋ have brought these judgments.
6 Maana waliimwaga damu ya watu wako na ya manabii, nawe umewapa damu wainywe; wamestahili hivyo!”
For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and yoʋ have given them blood to drink; it is what they deserve.”
7 Kisha nikasikia sauti madhabahuni ikisema, “Naam, Bwana Mungu Mwenye Uwezo! Hukumu zako ni za kweli na haki!”
And I heard the altar say, “Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and just are yoʋr judgments.”
8 Kisha malaika wa nne akamwaga bakuli lake juu ya jua. Jua likapewa nguvu ya kuwachoma watu kwa moto wake.
The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and the sun was permitted to scorch people with fire.
9 Basi, watu wakaunguzwa vibaya sana; wakamtukana Mungu aliye na uwezo juu ya mabaa hayo makubwa. Lakini hawakuziacha dhambi zao na kumtukuza Mungu.
People were scorched with intense heat, and they blasphemed the name of God, who had authority over these plagues, but they did not repent and give him glory.
10 Kisha malaika wa tano akamwaga bakuli lake juu ya makao makuu ya yule mnyama. Giza likauvamia utawala wake, watu wakauma ndimi zao kwa sababu za maumivu,
The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and the beast's kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in agony
11 wakamtukana Mungu wa mbinguni kwa sababu ya maumivu yao na madonda yao. Lakini hawakuyaacha matendo yao mabaya.
and blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and sores, but they did not repent of their works.
12 Kisha malaika wa sita akamwaga bakuli lake juu ya mto mkubwa uitwao Eufrate. Maji yake yakakauka, na hivyo njia ilitengenezwa kwa ajili ya wafalme wa mashariki.
The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up to prepare the way for the kings of the east.
13 Kisha nikaona pepo wabaya watatu walio kama vyura, wakitoka kinywani mwa yule joka, kinywani mwa yule mnyama, na kinywani mwa yule nabii wa uongo.
Then I saw three unclean spirits that looked like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.
14 Hawa ndio roho za pepo wafanyao miujiza. Ndio wanaokwenda kwa wafalme wa ulimwengu wote na kuwakusanya pamoja kwa ajili ya vita kuu Siku ile ya Mungu Mwenye Uwezo.
They are demonic spirits performing signs, who go out to the kings of the whole world to assemble them for battle on that great day of God, the Almighty.
15 “Sikiliza! Mimi naja kama mwizi! Heri mtu akeshaye na kuvaa nguo zake ili asije akaenda uchi huko na huko mbele ya watu.”
(“Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is he who stays awake and keeps his garments on, so that he will not walk around naked and have people see his shame.”)
16 Basi, roho hao wakawakusanya hao wafalme mahali paitwapo kwa Kiebrania Harmagedoni.
Then they assembled the kings at the place called in Hebrew, Armageddon.
17 Kisha malaika wa saba akamwaga bakuli lake hewani. Sauti kubwa ikasikika kutoka kwenye kiti cha enzi, Hekaluni, ikisema, “Mwisho umefika!”
The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came from the throne of the temple of heaven, saying, “It is done!”
18 Kukatokea umeme, kelele, ngurumo na tetemeko kubwa la ardhi ambalo halijapata kutokea tangu Mungu alipomuumba mtu.
Then there were flashes of lightning, peals of thunder, rumblings, and a great earthquake such as had not occurred since men have been on the earth, so great was the quake.
19 Mji ule mkuu ukapasuliwa sehemu tatu, nayo miji ya mataifa ikateketea. Babuloni, mji mkuu, haukusahauliwa na Mungu. Aliunywesha kikombe cha divai ya ghadhabu yake kuu.
The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. God remembered Babylon the great and gave her the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath.
20 Visiwa vyote vikatoweka, nayo milima haikuonekena tena.
Every island fled, and no mountain could be found.
21 Mvua ya mawe makubwa yenye uzito wa kama kilo hamsini kila moja, ikawanyeshea watu. Nao wakamtukana Mungu kwa sababu ya mapigo ya mvua hiyo ya mawe. Naam, pigo la mvua hiyo ya mawe lilikuwa kubwa mno.
And great hailstones, about the weight of a talent, fell on people from heaven, and they blasphemed God for the plague of the hail, because the plague was so severe.
