Revelation 20
1 I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. (Abyssos g12)
Zvino ndakaona mutumwa achiburuka kubva kudenga, ane kiyi yegomba risina chigadziko, neketani huru muruoko rwake. (Abyssos g12)
2 He seized the dragon, the old serpent, who is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years,
Zvino akabata zibukanana, nyoka yakare, ndiye Dhiabhorosi naSatani, akamusunga makore churu,
3 and cast him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time. (Abyssos g12)
ndokumukandira mugomba risina chigadziko, ndokumupfigira, ndokuisa mucherechedzo pamusoro pake kuti arege kuzonyengerazve marudzi, kusvikira makore churu apera; zvino shure kweizvozvo anofanira kusunungurwa chinguva chidiki. (Abyssos g12)
4 I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and such as didn’t worship the beast nor his image, and didn’t receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
Zvino ndakaona zvigaro zveushe, uye vakagara pamusoro pazvo, kutonga ndokupiwa kwavari; ndikaona nemweya yevakange vagurwa misoro nekuda kweuchapupu hwaJesu, uye nekuda kweshoko raMwari, nevasina kunamata chikara kana mufananidzo wacho, kana kugamuchira mucherechedzo pahuma yavo, neparuoko rwavo; zvino vakararama vakabata ushe pamwe naKristu makore churu.
5 The rest of the dead didn’t live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Asi vakasara vevakafa havana kuraramazve kusvikira makore churu apera. Uku kumuka kwekutanga.
6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him one thousand years.
Wakaropafadzwa uye mutsvene ane mugove pakumuka kwekutanga; pane ava rufu rwechipiri harwuna simba; asi vachava vapristi vaMwari nevaKristu, uye vachabata ushe pamwe naye makore churu.
7 And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison
Zvino panopera makore churu, Satani achasunungurwa kubva mutirongo rake,
8 and he will come out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, whose number is as the sand of the sea.
zvino uchabuda kutsausa marudzi ari kumativi mana enyika, ivo Gogi naMagogi, avaunganidzire hondo; uwandu hwavo hwakaita sejecha regungwa.
9 They went up over the width of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. Fire came down out of heaven from God and devoured them.
Vakakwira pakufara kwenyika, vakakomba musasa wevatsvene neguta rinodikanwa; moto ndokuburuka kubva kuna Mwari uchibva kudenga ndokuvamedza.
11 I saw a great white throne and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. There was found no place for them.
Zvino ndakaona chigaro cheushe chikuru chichena, newakange agere pamusoro pacho, iye nyika nedenga zvakatiza pachiso chake, zvikasawanirwa nzvimbo.
12 I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works.
Uye ndakaona vakafa, vadiki nevakuru, vamire pamberi paMwari, mabhuku ndokuzarurwa, nerimwe bhuku rikazarurwa, rinova reupenyu; vakafa vakatongwa kubva pane zvakange zvakanyorwa mumabhuku, zvichienderana nemabasa avo.
13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works. (Hadēs g86)
Zvino gungwa rakapa vakafa vakange vari mariri; nerufu negehena zvikapa vakafa vakange vari mazviri; umwe neumwe akatongwa zvichienderana nemabasa avo. (Hadēs g86)
