Ufunuo 12
1 Ishara ngolo yaibonekine kumaunde: nwawa yayobikwe ni lumu, ni mwei pae ya magolo yabe; ni taji lya ndondwa komi ni ibele yabile kunani ya mtwe wabe.
And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 Abile ni ndumbo ni abile kalela kwaajili ya maumivu ya papa-katika uchungu wa beleka.
And she being with child, cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
3 Ni ishara yenge yabonekine kumaunde: Lola! Pabile ni ling'ambo likele nkolo abile ni mitwe saba ni mbembe komi, ni yabile mataji saba pamutwe yabe.
And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
4 Nkela wabe utikokota theluthi jimo ya ndondwa kumaunde ni kuitoikwa pae mukilambo. Lingambo latiyema nnonge ya mwana nnwawa ywa karibie beleka, lenga wakati wabeleka, apale kummeza mwana wake.
And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to be delivered, to devour her child as soon as it was born.
5 Atibeleka mwana, mwana nnalome, ywapala tawala mataifa yoti kwa imba ya kiuma. Mwana wake atikakatuliwa kunani ya Nnongo ni pa iteo ya enzi.
And she brought forth a male child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up to God, and [to] his throne.
6 Ni nnwawa atibutukiya nyikani, mahali ambapo Nnongo atiandaa eneo kwa ajili yake, lenga aweche hudumiwa kwa machoba 1,260.
And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred [and] sixty days.
7 Na mbeyambe yabile ni vita kumaunde. Mikaeli ni malaika zake batikombwana ni yolo ling'ambo; ni ywembe ling'ambo likolo ni malaika bake batikombwana nabo.
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 Lakini ling'ambo labile ntopo ni ngupu yatosha shinda. Kwanyoo yabile ntopo nafasi kae kumaunde kwaajili yake ni malaika bake.
And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 Ling'ambo likolo -ling'ambo lelo lya kunchogo lyakemelwa ibilisi ama nchela ambalo libaya ubocho-kilambo sote latitaikuliwa pae mukilambo, ni malaika bake bataikulilwe pae pamope ni ywembe.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out upon the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 Boka po nayowine lilobe likolo boka kumaunde: “Nambeambe wokovu uichile, ngupu-ni ufalme wa Nnongo witu, ni mamlaka ya Kristo wabe, Kwa kuwa mshitaki wa anuna bitu ataikulilwe pae-anda kubashitaki nnonge ya Nnongo witu mutwekati ni kilo.
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, who accused them before our God day and night.
11 Batikumshinda kwa damu ya mwana ngondolo ni kwa neno lya ushuhuda wabe, kwa maana bapendile kwa muno maisha yabe, hata waa.
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives to the death.
12 Kwa nyoo, mushangilie, mwenga kumaunde, ni boti mwamutama nkati yabe, Lakini ole wa kilambo ni bahari kwa sababu mwovu atiuluka kwinu atwelile ni hasira kali, kwa mana atangite kwamba abii ni muda nchunu.
Therefore rejoice, [ye] heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth, and of the sea! for the devil is come down to you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
13 Wakati ling'ambo lyatangite panga lateikulilwe pae pakilambo, latikunkengama nnwawa ywa atibeleka mwana nnalome.
And when the dragon saw that he was cast to the earth, he persecuted the woman who brought forth the male -[child].
14 Lakini nnwawa apeilwe mabawa abele ya tai nkolo, lenga kwamba aweche goroka hadi ku'lieneo lya liandaliwe kwa ajili yake kolyo ku'jangwa, eneo ambalo aweza kuitunza mwene, nyakati ni nusu wakati-mahali pawecha kwaa kaa yolo ling'ambo.
And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 Ling'ambo lyatipengana mache boka pankano wake kati libende, lenga apange gharika ya kumgharikisha.
And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood.
16 Lakini mbwee itikunyangatia nnwawa, Itiumukwa nkano wake ni milalibende launile ling'ambo boka pankano wake.
And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 Boka po ling'ambo atikumkachilikia nnwawa naywembe atiboka ni panga vita ni uzao wabe woti-balo babamtii amri ya Nnongo ni shirikiana ushuhuda kuhusu. Yesu.
And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
