Revelation 18
1 Lẹ́yìn nǹkan wọ̀nyí mo sì rí angẹli mìíràn, ó ń ti ọ̀run sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá ti òun ti agbára ńlá; ilẹ̀ ayé sì ti ipa ògo rẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀.
After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory.
2 Ó sì kígbe ní ohùn rara, wí pé: “Babeli ńlá ṣubú! Ó ṣubú! Ó sì di ibùjókòó àwọn ẹ̀mí èṣù, àti ihò fún ẹ̀mí àìmọ́ gbogbo, àti ilé fún ẹyẹ àìmọ́ gbogbo, ilé fún ẹranko ìríra àti àìmọ́ gbogbo.
He cried out with a mighty voice, “Fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place for demons, a haunt for every unclean spirit, and a haunt for every unclean and hated bird.
3 Nítorí nípa ọtí wáìnì ìrunú àgbèrè rẹ̀ ni gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè ṣubú. Àwọn ọba ayé sì ti bá a ṣe àgbèrè, àti àwọn oníṣòwò ayé sì di ọlọ́rọ̀ nípa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ wọ̀bìà rẹ̀.”
For all the nations have fallen because of the wine of the wrath of her fornication. The kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich from the power of her luxury.”
4 Mo sì gbọ́ ohùn mìíràn láti ọ̀run wá, wí pé: “‘Ẹ ti inú rẹ̀ jáde, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn mi,’ kí ẹ ma bá a ṣe alábápín nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀, kí ẹ ma bà á sì ṣe gbà nínú ìyọnu rẹ̀.
Then I heard another voice from heaven say, “Come out of her, my people, so that you do not participate in her sins, and so that you do not receive any of her plagues;
5 Nítorí àwọn ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ ga títí dé ọ̀run, Ọlọ́run sì ti rántí àìṣedéédéé rẹ̀.
for her sins are heaped as high as heaven, and God has remembered her unrighteous acts.
6 San an fún un, àní bí òun tí san án fún ní, kí ó sì ṣe e ni ìlọ́po méjì fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bí iṣẹ́ rẹ̀, nínú ago náà tí o ti kún, òun ni kí ẹ sì kún fún un ni méjì.
Render to her as she herself has rendered; repay her double according to her works. Mix a double portion for her in the cup she has mixed.
7 Níwọ́n bí o ti yin ara rẹ̀ lógo tó, tí ó sì hùwà wọ̀bìà, níwọ̀n bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ẹ dá a lóró kí ẹ sì fún un ní ìbànújẹ́; nítorí tí ó wí ní ọkàn rẹ̀ pé, ‘Mo jókòó bí ọbabìnrin, èmi kì sì í ṣe opó, èmí kì yóò sì rí ìbànújẹ́ láé.’
As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury, give her the same amount of torment and mourning, for in her heart she says, ‘I sit enthroned as a queen; I am not a widow and will never see mourning.’
8 Nítorí náà, ní ọjọ́ kan ni ìyọnu rẹ̀ yóò dé, ikú, àti ìbìnújẹ́, àti ìyàn; a ó sì fi iná sun ún pátápátá: nítorí pé alágbára ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run tí ń ṣe ìdájọ́ rẹ̀.
Therefore her plagues will come in a single day— death, mourning, and famine. She will be burned up with fire, for mighty is the Lord God who has judged her.”
9 “Àti àwọn ọba ayé, tí ó ti ń bá a ṣe àgbèrè, tiwọn sì ń hùwà wọ̀bìà, yóò sì pohùnréré ẹkún lé e lórí, nígbà tí wọn bá wo èéfín ìjóná rẹ̀.
The kings of the earth who have committed fornication with her and lived in luxury with her will weep and wail over her when they see the smoke of her burning.
10 Wọ́n ó dúró ní òkèrè réré nítorí ìbẹ̀rù iṣẹ́ oró rẹ̀, wọn ó máa wí pé: “‘Ègbé! Ègbé, ni fún ìlú ńlá náà, Babeli ìlú alágbára nì! Nítorí ní wákàtí kan ni ìdájọ́ rẹ dé!’
In fear of her torment they will stand at a distance and say, “Alas, alas, for the great city, Babylon, the mighty city! For in a single hour yoʋr judgment has come.”
11 “Àwọn oníṣòwò ayé sì ń sọkún, wọn sì ń ṣọ̀fọ̀ lórí rẹ̀, nítorí pé ẹnikẹ́ni kò rà ọjà wọn mọ́.
The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, because no one buys their cargo anymore,
12 Ọjà wúrà, àti ti fàdákà, àti ti òkúta iyebíye, àti ti perli, àti ti aṣọ ọ̀gbọ̀ wíwẹ́, àti tí elése àlùkò, àti ti ṣẹ́dà, àti ti òdòdó, àti ti gbogbo igi olóòórùn dídùn, àti ti olúkúlùkù ohun èlò tí a fi igi iyebíye ṣe, àti ti idẹ, àti ti irin, àti ti òkúta mabu.
cargo of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple cloth, silk, scarlet cloth, all kinds of citron wood, all kinds of articles made of ivory, all kinds of articles made of costly wood, bronze, iron, and marble;
13 Àti ti Kinamoni, àti ti onírúurú ohun olóòórùn dídùn, àti ti ohun ìkunra, àti tí tùràrí, àti ti ọtí wáìnì, àti ti òróró, àti ti ìyẹ̀fun dáradára, àti ti alikama, àti ti ẹran ńlá, àti ti àgùntàn, àti ti ẹṣin, àti ti kẹ̀kẹ́, àti ti ẹrú, àti ti ọkàn ènìyàn.
cargo of cinnamon, incense, myrrh, frankincense, wine, oil, fine flour, wheat, sheep, cattle, horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men.
14 “Àti àwọn èso tí ọkàn rẹ̀ ń ṣe. Ìfẹ́kúfẹ̀ẹ́ sí, si lọ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ, àti ohun gbogbo tí ó dùn tí ó sì dára ṣègbé mọ́ ọ lójú, kì yóò sì tún rí wọn mọ́ láé.
“The ripe fruit that was the desire of yoʋr soul has gone from yoʋ, and all yoʋr delicacies and splendors are lost to yoʋ; yoʋ will never find them again!”
15 Àwọn oníṣòwò nǹkan wọ̀nyí, tí a ti ipa rẹ̀ sọ di ọlọ́rọ̀, yóò dúró ní òkèrè réré nítorí ìbẹ̀rù iṣẹ́ oró rẹ̀, wọn o máa sọkún, wọ́n ó sì máa ṣọ̀fọ̀,
The merchants of these wares, who became rich from her, will stand at a distance in fear of her torment, weeping and mourning aloud,
16 wí pé: “‘Ègbé! Ègbé, ni fún ìlú ńlá nì, tí a wọ̀ ní aṣọ ọ̀gbọ̀ wíwẹ́, àti ti elése àlùkò, àti ti òdòdó, àti ti a sì fi wúrà ṣe ní ọ̀ṣọ́, pẹ̀lú òkúta iyebíye àti peali!
“Alas, alas, for the great city that was clothed in fine linen, in purple and scarlet, adorned with gold, with precious stone and pearls!
17 Nítorí pé ní wákàtí kan ni ọrọ̀ ti o pọ̀ tó bẹ́ẹ̀ di asán!’ “Àti olúkúlùkù ẹni tí ń rin ojú omi lọ sí ibikíbi, àti àwọn ti ń ṣiṣẹ́ nínú ọkọ àwọn ti ń ṣòwò ojú Òkun dúró ní òkèrè réré,
For in a single hour such great wealth has been laid waste!” And every shipmaster and seafaring man, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood at a distance
18 wọ́n sì kígbe nígbà tí wọ́n rí èéfín jíjóná rẹ́, wí pé, ‘Ìlú wo ni o dàbí ìlú yìí?’
and cried out as they saw the smoke of her burning, “What city is like the great city?”
19 Wọ́n sì kú ekuru sí orí wọn, wọ́n kígbe, wọ́n sọkún, wọn sì ń ṣọ̀fọ̀, wí pé: “‘Ègbé! Ègbé, ni fún ìlú ńlá náà, nínú èyí tí a sọ gbogbo àwọn tí ó ni ọkọ̀ ní Òkun di ọlọ́rọ̀ nípa ohun iyebíye rẹ̀! Nítorí pé ni wákàtí kan, a sọ ọ́ di ahoro.’
They threw dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and mourning aloud, “Alas, alas, for the great city, where all who had ships at sea grew rich from her valuable merchandise! For in a single hour she has been laid waste.
20 “Yọ̀ lórí rẹ̀, ìwọ ọ̀run! Ẹ yọ̀, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Ọlọ́run! Ẹ yọ̀, ẹ̀yin aposteli mímọ́ àti wòlíì! Nítorí Ọlọ́run ti gbẹ̀san yín lára rẹ̀ nítorí ìdájọ́ tí ó gbé ka orí rẹ.”
Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you saints, apostles, and prophets, for God has given judgment for you against her.”
21 Angẹli alágbára kan sì gbé òkúta kan sókè, ó dàbí ọlọ ńlá, ó sì jù ú sínú Òkun, wí pé: “Báyìí ní a ó fi agbára ńlá bí i Babeli ìlú ńlá ni wó, a kì yóò sì rí i mọ́ láé.
Then a mighty angel picked up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, and said, “With such violence Babylon the great city will be thrown down, never to be found again.
22 Àti ohùn àwọn aludùùrù, àti ti àwọn olórin, àti ti àwọn afunfèrè, àti ti àwọn afùnpè, ni a kì yóò sì gbọ́ nínú rẹ mọ́ rara; àti olúkúlùkù oníṣọ̀nà ohunkóhun ni a kì yóò sì rí nínú rẹ mọ́ láé. Àti ìró ọlọ ní a kì yóò sì gbọ́ mọ̀ nínú rẹ láé;
The sound of harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters will never be heard in yoʋ again. No craftsman of any trade will ever be found in yoʋ again. The sound of a mill will never be heard in yoʋ again.
23 Àti ìmọ́lẹ̀ fìtílà ni kì yóò sì tàn nínú rẹ̀ mọ́ láé; a kì yóò sì gbọ́ ohùn ọkọ ìyàwó àti ti ìyàwó nínú rẹ mọ́ láé: nítorí pé àwọn oníṣòwò rẹ̀ ni àwọn ẹni ńlá ayé; nítorí pé nípa ọ̀ṣọ́ rẹ̀ ní a fi tàn orílẹ̀-èdè gbogbo jẹ.
The light of a lamp will never shine in yoʋ again. The voice of bridegroom and bride will never be heard in yoʋ again. For yoʋr merchants were the magnates of the earth, and all the nations were deceived by yoʋr sorcery.”
24 Àti nínú rẹ̀ ní a gbé ri ẹ̀jẹ̀ àwọn wòlíì, àti ti àwọn ènìyàn mímọ́, àti ti gbogbo àwọn tí a pa lórí ilẹ̀ ayé.”
And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth.
