Nyaa nga cha umukulilwe Yesu Kirisitu ambao Nnungu apelwe kualangya abandu bake makowew ambago lazima ga pa pilya karibuni. Apangite gatanganikwe kwabkumtuma malaika wake kwa mbanda wake Yohana.
2 who testified to God’s word and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.
Yohana apiya ushuhuda wa kila kilibe cha kibweni usiana na likowe lya Nnungu ni kwa ushuhuda wa upiite husu Yesu Kirisitu.
3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is near.
Abalikiwe ywembe ywa soma kwa lilobe na balu babayua maneno ga unabii gano na kugatii chakiandikilwe muno, kitumbu muda uti karibia.
4 John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;
Yohana kwa makanisa saba ga gabile Asia: neema ibe kwinu na amani buka kwa ywabile, ywapabaa, na ywapaicha na buka kwa Roho saba bababile nnongi ya kitigo chake cha enzi.
5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood—
Na buka kwa Yesu Kirisitu ambeye nga shahidi mwaminifu mmelkekwa wa kwanza ba bawile, na ntawala wa mfalme dunia yino, kwa ywembe ywatupendile na atubikite huru buka mmalau gitu kwa damu yake.
6 and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father—to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Atupangite panga ufalme wa makuhani wa Nnungu na Tate bake kwake panga tukuka na ngupu milelebdaima. Amina. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.
Linga andaicha na maunde kila lio lipakumwona pamoja boti babamwomite. Na kabila yoti ya dunia bapakukulika kwake. Ndiyo, Amina.
8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
Nenga nga Alfa na Omega abaya Ngwana Nnungu, ywembe ywabile na ywapabaa, na ambaye andaicha mwene ngupu.
9 I John, your brother and partner with you in the oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God’s Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Nenga Yohana nuna winu na kati yinu ywa shiriki mateso na ufalme na uvumumilia thabiti wa ubile katika Yesu; nabile pa kisiwa cha kikemelwa Patimo kitumbu cha neno la Nnungu na ushuhuda usu Yesu.
10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet
Nabile katika Roho lichuba la Ngwana, nayuwine nchugu yangu lilobe la kunani kati ya tarumbeta,
11 saying, “What you see, write in a book and send to the seven assemblies: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”
Yaibaya, uandike katika kitabu ga ugabona na ugatume kwa makanisa saba yenda Efeso, yenda Smima, yenda Pergamo, yenda Thiatira, yenda Sardi, yenda Philadelphia na yenda Laodikia.
12 I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lamp stands.
Nitigalambuka linga ni lilobe lya nyai ywabile kalongela na nee, na panigalambwike nabweni kinara cha dhahabu cha taa saba.
13 And among the lamp stands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.
Pakatikati ya kinara cha taa abile yumo kati mwana wa Adamu, aweti ngamu ndacho yaukite pai ya magulu gake, na mkanda wa dhahabu tindia pa kiuba.
14 His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.
Mtwe wakwe na nywili yake yai uu kati pamba kati barafu na minyo gake gabi mwali wa mwoto.
15 His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.
Njayo yake yabi kati shaba yahikutilwe sana, kati shaba yaipitile katika mwoto, na lilobe lyake yabi kati machi maingi gaga yenda kwa haraka.
16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
Abi akamwi ndondwa saba katika luboko lwake wa mmalyo, na buka mukano wake mwabi na lipanga likale wene makale kuno na kuno. Kuminyo yake kwende ng'araa kati mwenga nkalee walichuba.
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, “Don’t be afraid. I am the first and the last,
Pamweni, natitumbuka pamagulu gake kati mundu nywa wile. Abikite luboko lwake mmalyo panani yangu na baya “Kana uyogope” Ninga na wa kwanza na wa mwisho.
19 Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter.
Kwaiyo ugaaandike ga ugabweni nambiambi, na galo gagapita baadaye,
20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lamp stands is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lamp stands are seven assemblies.
kwa maana yaiyubite husu ndondwa saba yauibweni katika luboko lwangu lwa mmalyo, na chilo kinara kinara cha dhahabu cha taa saba: ndondwa saba nga malaika wa makanisa saba, na kinara cha taa saba nga galo makanisa saba.
