1 Ye fikilile fyoni ifi nikabwene umunyamola ujunge ikwika paasi kuhuma kukyanya. Umwene alyale nuvutavulilua uvuvaha, na ji iisi jikamulikue nhu vwimike vwaa mwene.
And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
2 Alyalilile nilisio ilivaha, akajova, “Ghughwile, ghughwile, ilikaja ilivaha ilya Babeli! Ulivukale vwa Mipepo, kange panosikukala imhepo indamafu soni, kange napano vikukala avanyali voni nikijuni kino kikalasia.
And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 Ulwakuva ifisina fyooni finywile uluhuje nhuvunoghelua vwea vuvwafu vwamweene vuno vukum'pelelela ing'alasi. Avatua va mu iisi va vwafuike naghwoope. Navanyaduka vooni vooni va mu iisi vakavile uvuvwafu ku ngufu sa mikalile gha mwene gha vunoghelua.”
For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4 Kange nikapulika ilisio ilinge kuhuma kukyanya liiti, “Vukagha kwa mwene mwe vaanhu vango, ulwakuuti mulihasing'ana mumakole gha mwene, ulwakuuti muleke pikuvupila imumuko sa mwene sooni.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.
5 Inyali sa mwene simemeleng'ine kukyanya heene vulanga, naju Nguluve asikumbwike imbombo sa mwene imbivi.
For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
6 Mumombaghe ndavule akavahombile avange, kange muhombaghe mugomokaghe kaviili ndavule akavombile; mukikombe kino akahasing'inie, mumanikiiaghe kaviili ulwa mweene.
Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double to her double according to her works: in the cup which she has filled fill to her double.
7 Ndavule akighinisie jujuo mwene, kange akikalile nulunomo, mum'pelaghe imumuko nyinga na kusukunala. Ulwakuva ijova mu mwoojo ghwa mwene, nikalile hwene minja Ntua; kange nanilimfwile, nambe na kwande nikukwagha kulila.'
How much she has glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8 Pa uluobmu n'kate mukighono kimo imumuko sa mwene sikumulemagha: Vufue, ikililo, nhi njala, itangukagha nu mwooto, ulwakuva u Mutwa u Nguluve ghwe nyangufu, kange ghwe mighi ghwa mwene.”
Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her.
9 Avatua va iisi vano vakavwafwike na kuhasiling'ana palikimo nu mwene viliilagha na pikung'ulasia pano kwande vikulivona ilyosi ilyakupia umweene.
And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall mourn her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,
10 Vikwima patali numwene, ku vwoghofi vwa vuvafi vwa mwene vitisagha, “Iiga, iiga kulikaja ilivaha, Babeli, ilikaja ilinyangufu! Ku kivalilo kimo uluhighilo lwako lwisile.”
Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is your judgment come.
11 Vanyaduka va iisi mulilaghe na pikung'ulasia vwimila u mwene, ulwakuva nakwale nambe jumo juno ighula ifinu fya mwene kange -
And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man buys their merchandise any more:
12 ifiinu ifya sahabu, indalama, amavue agha lutogo, lulu, ugolole um'balafu, izambalau, umwene nda ghuno ghutetema, ndangali, amapiki ghoni ghono ghinukila vunofu, ifivombelo fyoni ifya mapembe gha jungua, ifyombo fyoni fino fitendilue namapiki gha lutogo, shahaba, kyuma, ilivue,
The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble,
13 Mdalasini, ifilungo, vufumba, manemane, vubani, uluhuje, amafuta, uvutine uvunono, ingano, ing'ombe ni ng'olo, ifarasi ni gale, na vakami, ni numbula sa vaanhu.
And cinnamon, and odors, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
14 Imeke sino ukasinoghilue ni ngufu saako sivukile kuhuma kulyuve. Uvunoghelua vwaako vwooni nhu vunonofivikile, nafilavoneka kange.
And the fruits that your soul lusted after are departed from you, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed from you, and you shall find them no more at all.
15 Vano vighusia ifiinu ifi vano vakavile uvumofu muvughane vwamwene vikwimagha kuvutali kuhuma kwa mwene vwimila vwa vwoghofi vwa mumuko saa mwene, vilila nilisio lya kung'ulasia.
The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,
16 Viiti, “Iga, iga kulikaja ilivaha ghwe juno ifwikilue ugolole unono, sambalau, ni ndangali, na kunosevua ni sahabu, ni finu ifya lutogo ni lulu!”
And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
17 Mun'kate mu sala jimo uvumofu vwooni uvuo vukikalile. Avaghendesia meli vooni, kange avoghelelelaji va mubahari na vooni vano vivomba imbombo mu nyanja, valyimile patali.
For in one hour so great riches is come to nothing. And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar off,
18 Valyalilile ye vikulivona ilyosi ilyakupia umwene. Vakaati, “Likaja liliku lino liwanana nilikaja iili ilivaha?”
And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is like to this great city!
19 Vakitaghile iling'undi pa matu gha vanave, pe vakalila, vakahumagha amahosi na pikung'ulisia, “Iiga, iiga ghwelikaja ilivaha mwonimwoni vano valyale ni meli saave mu nyanja valyale vamofu vwimila vwa kyuma kya mwene. Mun'kate mu sala jimo vitipulue.”
And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
20 “Mukelaghe khu lwa mwene, vulanga, umwue vitiki, mweva sun'gua navavili, ulwakuva u Nguluve aletile uluhighilo lwa mwene pa ulu!”
Rejoice over her, you heaven, and you holy apostles and prophets; for God has avenged you on her.
21 Umunyamola unyangufu alyanyanywile ilivue hweene livuhe ilivaha ilya kuhavulila kange akatagha mu nyanja, akaatisagha, “Kusila iiji, Babeli, ilikaja ilivaha liila, ghutaghua pasi kuvu lefi nulavoneka kange.
And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
22 Amasio gha finanda, avanyanyimbo, avaseja pilimbi, nulu kelema navalapulika kange kulyumue. Nambe avamang'ani vooni navalavoneka kulyumue. Nambe ilitavua lya lituule nalilapulikika kange kulyumue.
And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in you; and no craftsman, of whatever craft he be, shall be found any more in you; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in you;
23 Ulumuli lwa tala nalulamulika mulyuve. Ilisio lya nyavutolani umughosi nu nyavutolani umu mama nalilapulikika kange mulyuve, ulwakuuva avaghusia fiinu vako valyale vavaha va mu iisi, kange vafisikina, vasyangilue nuvuhavi vwako.
And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in you; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in you: for your merchants were the great men of the earth; for by your sorceries were all nations deceived.
24 Mun'kate mwa mwene idanda ja vaviili na vitiki jilya vonike, ni danda ja vooni vano valya m'budilue mu iisi.”
And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain on the earth.
