< Revelation 13 >

1 Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.
Ni lijoka lila lyajimi mmbwani mwa bahali. Nipele nachiweni chinyama chachikali chili nkukopoka mu bahali, chana mitwe saba ni misengo likumi ni pachanya pa kila msengo pana chindu mpela singwa. Ni pachanya pa jele mitwe paliji ni meena ga kwatukana Akunnungu.
2 The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.
Ni chinyama chachikali chinachiweni cho chalandene ni chisuŵi, ni sajo syakwe chisau chisuŵi ni kang'wa jakwe chisau kang'wa ja lisimba. Lijoka lyo lyachipele chinyama chachikali chila machili gakwe ni chitengu cha ulamusi ni ukombole waujinji.
3 One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.
Ntwe umo wa chinyama chachikali chila waoneche kuti waulele liŵanga lyakogoya nnope lilyatyochele ni kukapikwa ni lipanga, nambo liŵanga lyakogoya lyo lyaliji lilamile. Ŵandu wose ŵa pachilambo ŵachisimosile chinyama cho ni kuchikuya.
4 They worshiped the dragon because he gave his authority to the beast; and they worshiped the beast, saying, “Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?”
Ŵandu wose ŵalilambile lijoka lila ligongo lyachipele chinyama chachikali ukombole wakwe. Nombe ŵachipopelele chinyama achitiji, “Ana ŵaani ŵakulandana ni chinyama chi? Ana ŵaani ŵakukombola kumenyana nacho?”
5 A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.
Nipele chinyama chachikali chila chapegwile ukombole wa kuŵecheta maloŵe ga kuligamba ni ga kwatukana Akunnungu. Nombecho chapegwile ulamusi wa kupanganya masengo kwa miesi alobaini na mbili.
6 He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, his dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.
Nombe chinyama chachikali chila chatandite kwatukana Akunnungu ni kulitukana liina lyao ni liuto lyakutama Akunnungu ni wose ŵakutama kwinani.
7 It was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.
Sooni chapegwile machili ga kumenyana ngondo ni ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu ni kwapunda. Ŵapegwile ulamusi wa kwatawala ŵandu ŵa ngosyo ni kila chiŵecheto ni kila chilambo ni kila mitundu.
8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.
Ni ŵandu wose ŵakutama mu chilambo chaachipopelele chinyama chachikali cho, ikaŵe ŵeŵala pe ŵaŵalembekwe meena gao chitandilile kupagwa kwa chilambo mu chitabu cha umi cha Mwanangondolo juŵaulajikwe.
9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
“Ŵakwete mapikanilo, apikane!
10 If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
Iŵaga mundu akusachilwa kujigalikwa migole chajigalikwe migole. Iŵaga mundu akusachilwa aulajikwe ni lipanga chaulajikwe ni lipanga. Kwa yele ŵandu ŵa Akunnungu akusachilwa aŵeje ni upililiu ni chikulupi.”
11 I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and it spoke like a dragon.
Nipele nachiweni chinyama chine chachikali chili nkukopoka mu lisi. Chakwete misengo jiŵili jati mpela ja ngondolo ni chaŵechete mpela lijoka lyekulungwa lila.
12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.
Chinyama cho chaliji ni ukombole wemalile kutyochela kwa chinyama cha ndanda ni ŵautumiye ukombole ula paujo pa chinyama. Nombecho kwa machili ŵaatendaga ŵandu ŵa chilambo chose achipopelele achila chinyama chandanda chichaliji ni liŵanga lyakogoya lilyalamile.
13 He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.
Nipele, chinyama chachikali chaaŵili chatesile imanyisyo yekulungwa yakusimosya paujo pa ŵandu namose kuutenda mooto utuluche pachilambo kutyochela kwinani.
14 He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast, saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.
Kwa ukombole uŵapegwilwe wa kutendekanya imanyisyo yekulungwa yakusimosya paujo pa chinyama chandanda. Ŵalyungesye ŵandu ŵakutama pachilambo kwakwasalila akolosye chinyago chakulandana ni chinyama chichaliji ni liŵanga lilyatyochele ni kukapikwa ni lipanga ni kulama chila kuti achichimbichisye.
15 It was given to him to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn’t worship the image of the beast to be killed.
Chinyama chaaŵili chila chapegwile machili ga kuchitaga mbumu ja umi chinyago cha chinyama cha ndanda kuti chikombole kuŵecheta ni kwaulaga ŵandu wose ŵangakuchipopelela chinyago cho.
16 He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands or on their foreheads;
Nombe ŵaakanganichisye ŵandu wose, achanandi ni achakulungwa, ŵachipanje ni ŵakulaga, ŵanganaŵa achikapolo ni achikapolo, kuti atajikwe chimanyisyo pa nkono wao wa kundyo pane ku meeso kwao.
17 and that no one would be able to buy or to sell unless he has that mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.
Ŵakanyisye akapagwa mundu jwalijose juchasume pane kusumisya chindu chachili chose akaŵe jwakwete chimanyisyo, yaani liina lya chinyama chila pane uŵalanjikwe wa liina lyakwe.
18 Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred sixty-six.
Pelepa pakusachilwa lunda! Jwakwete umanyilisi akukombola kuŵalanga uŵalanje wa chele chinyama, pakuŵa namba jo jili liina lya mundu jumpepe. Syele namba sili mia sita, sitini na sita.
