Revelation 9
1 The fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star from the sky which had fallen to the earth. The key to the pit of the Abyss (Abyssos g12) was given to him.
Awo malayika owookutaano n’afuuwa ekkondeere lye, ne ndaba emmunyeenye ng’eva mu ggulu ng’egwa ku nsi era n’eweebwa ekisumuluzo eky’obunnya obutakoma. (Abyssos g12)
2 He opened the pit of the Abyss (Abyssos g12), and smoke went up out of the pit, like the smoke from a burning furnace. The sun and the air were darkened because of the smoke from the pit.
Bwe yabusumulula, omukka ne gufubutuka okuvaamu ng’oguva mu kikoomi ekinene ennyo, era enjuba ne bbanga lyonna ne bibuna ekizikiza olw’omukka ogw’omu bunnya. (Abyssos g12)
3 Then out of the smoke came locusts on the earth, and power was given to them, as the scorpions of the earth have power.
Enzige ne ziva mu mukka ne zikka ku nsi ne ziweebwa obuyinza okuluma ng’enjaba ez’obusagwa.
4 They were told that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those people who do not have God’s seal on their foreheads.
Zaagambibwa obutakola ku muddo kabi konna, newaakubadde ebimera, wadde emiti; wabula zirumbe abantu abo abataalina kabonero ka Katonda mu byenyi byabwe.
5 They were given power, not to kill them, but to torment them for five months. Their torment was like the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a person.
Tezaagambibwa kubatta wabula okubabonyaabonya okumala emyezi etaano nga zibaluma bulumi, ng’obulumi bwazo buli ng’obuva mu kubojjebwa enjaba ez’obusagwa.
6 In those days people will seek death, and will in no way find it. They will desire to die, and death will flee from them.
Mu biro ebyo abantu balyagala okwetta naye tekirisoboka kubanga okufa kuliba kubeesamba; balyegomba okufa naye kwo, nga kubadduka buddusi!
7 The shapes of the locusts were like horses prepared for war. On their heads were something like golden crowns, and their faces were like people’s faces.
Enzige zino zaali zifaanana ng’embalaasi ezitegekeddwa okugenda ku lutalo okulwana, ne ku mitwe gyazo nga kuli ng’okutikkiddwa engule za zaabu ate ebyenyi byazo nga biri ng’eby’abantu.
8 They had hair like women’s hair, and their teeth were like those of lions.
Obwoya bwazo nga buli ng’enviiri z’abakazi, ate go amannyo gaazo gaali ng’ag’empologoma.
9 They had breastplates like breastplates of iron. The sound of their wings was like the sound of many chariots and horses rushing to war.
Zaali zambadde eby’omu bifuba ebiri ng’eby’ebyuma, nga n’ebiwaawaatiro byazo biwuluguma ng’eddoboozi lya nnamuziga w’amagaali, ag’embalaasi ennyingi nga zifubutuka okulaga mu lutalo.
10 They have tails like those of scorpions, with stingers. In their tails they have power to harm men for five months.
Zaalina emikira egibojja ng’egy’enjaba ez’obusagwa. N’obuyinza bwazo obw’okubonyaabonya obwaziweebwa obw’emyezi etaano bwali mu mikira omwo.
11 They have over them as king the angel of the Abyss (Abyssos g12). His name in Hebrew is "Abaddon", and in Greek, he has the name "Apollyon".
Kabaka waazo ye malayika ow’obunnya obutakoma, erinnya lye mu Lwebbulaniya ye Abadoni ate mu Luyonaani ye Apolwoni. (Abyssos g12)
12 The first woe is past. Behold, there are still two woes coming after this.
Eky’entiisa ekisooka ne kiyita, naye ng’ekyaliyo bya mirundi ebiri ebijja!
13 The sixth angel sounded. I heard a voice from the horns of the golden altar which is before God,
Awo malayika ow’omukaaga n’afuuwa ekkondeere lye, ne mpulira eddoboozi nga lyogera okuva mu mayembe ana agali ku kyoto ekya zaabu ekiri mu maaso ga Katonda,
14 saying to the sixth angel who had the trumpet, “Free the four angels who are bound at the great river Euphrates!”
nga ligamba malayika oyo ow’omukaaga nti, “Sumulula bamalayika abana abaasibirwa ku mugga omunene Fulaati.”
15 The four angels were freed who had been prepared for that hour and day and month and year, so that they might kill one third of mankind.
Bamalayika abana abaali basibiddwa nga balindirira omwaka n’omwezi ogwo, n’olunaku olwo, n’essaawa eyo, ne basumululwa okutta ekitundu ekimu ekyokusatu eky’abantu.
16 The number of the armies of the horsemen was two hundred million. I heard the number of them.
Ne mpulira omuwendo ogw’eggye ery’abaserikale nga bali obukadde ebikumi bibiri.
17 Thus I saw the horses in the vision and those who sat on them, having breastplates of fiery red, hyacinth blue, and sulfur yellow; and the horses’ heads resembled lions’ heads. Out of their mouths proceed fire, smoke, and sulfur.
Ne ndaba mu kwolesebwa, ng’embalaasi n’abaali bazeebagadde nga bambadde eby’omu bifuba ebimyufu, era mwalimu n’abambadde ebya bbululu n’ebya kyenvu. Emitwe gy’embalaasi gyali gifaanana ng’egy’empologoma, ne mu bumwa bwazo ne muvaamu omuliro n’omukka ne salufa.
18 By these three plagues, one third of mankind was killed: by the fire, the smoke, and the sulfur, which proceeded out of their mouths.
Ebibonyoobonyo ebyo ebisatu: Omukka n’omuliro n’obuganga ebyava mu bumwa bwazo ne bitta ekitundu ekimu ekyokusatu eky’abantu.
19 For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails are like serpents, and have heads; and with them they harm.
Amaanyi gaazo ag’okutta tegaali mu bumwa bwazo mwokka, naye gaali ne mu mikira gyazo, kubanga emikira egyo gyali ng’emitwe gy’emisota, nga gye zibojjesa.
20 The rest of mankind, who were not killed with these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, that they would not worship demons, and the idols of gold, and of silver, and of brass, and of stone, and of wood, which cannot see, hear, or walk.
Naye era abantu abaasigalawo nga balamu oluvannyuma lw’ebibonoobono bino ne bagaana okwenenya ebikolwa byabwe. Ne batalekaayo kusinza baddayimooni n’ebifaananyi ebyakolebwa n’emikono ebya zaabu n’ebya ffeeza, n’eby’ebikomo, n’eby’amayinja n’omuti, ebitalaba yadde okuwulira so n’okutambula tebitambula.
21 They did not repent of their murders, their sorceries, their sexual immorality, or their thefts.
Era tebeenenya butemu bwabwe, wadde obulogo, wadde obwenzi, wadde obubbi bye baakolanga.
