Uruyan Yuhana 17
1 Warum nanya nono kadura Kutelle ule na a wadi nin kukurum kun zur ada adworiyi, “Da, ima dursufe ucan mmolu nkaruwa udiya ule na a sosin kitene myein gbardan,
And one of the seven Angels, those who hold the seven bowls, approached and spoke with me, saying: “Come, I will show you the condemnation of the great harlot, who sits upon many waters.
2 Ame ule na Ago nyii na su uzina nan ghe, kitane ntoro in zina mye anang lisosin nanyan nyie na so bolm.”
With her, the kings of the earth have fornicated. And those who inhabit the earth have been inebriated by the wine of her prostitution.”
3 Gono kadura Kutelle yerai nanyan Ruhu udu kusho, inin yene uwani sosin kitene nfon funanan tene a wa kulung nin tizogo tisa. Finawe wadi ni nati kuzur nin na wulu.
And he carried me away in spirit to the desert. And I saw a woman sitting upon a scarlet beast, filled with names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.
4 Uwane wa shon imoon nmyein nafa, nin myein mi shine nwoltu anin su kuyok nin nizinariya, atala a ciine, nin natan luu luu. A wa myein ncara mye ka kuk nizinariya ka kuluno nin nimoon izenzen, nin dinong nzwa mye.
And the woman was clothed all around with purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, holding a golden cup in her hand, filled with the abomination and with the filth of her fornication.
5 Kitenemye i wa yertin imemong na iwa nyeshin: “UBABILA UDIYA, UNAH NA KARUWA NIN NIMON IZEMZEM NYII ULELE.”
And a name was written upon her forehead: Mystery, Babylon the great, the mother of the fornications and the abominations of the earth.
6 Nwa yene uwanii une nta bomn nin myii nanit alau nin myii nanan nizi iban Yesu. Kubi ko nanyene ghe nwa su umamaki kan.
And I saw that the woman was inebriated from the blood of the saints and from the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. And I was amazed, when I had seen her, with a great wonder.
7 Unan kadura Kutelle woroi, “Bara iyanghai usu umamaki? Mma belen fi umaana inwane nin funawan tine nan ayonghe (finawan tene fo na fidi nin nati kuzur nin nawulu kuzur).
And the Angel said to me: “Why do you wonder? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has seven heads and ten horns.
8 Fina nawan tene na uyene fiwan duku, fiduku nene ba, bara nani fidin cinu unuzu nanyan kuwu ku cancam sa ligang. Ama li ubun mmolsu. Alenge na isosin nyei, alenge na ina yertin tisamene nanya kubaga nlai ba uwaaru ukyen nye-iwa yene finawa fone bara na awa diku na aduku nene ba adin cinu. (Abyssos g12)
The beast that you saw, was, and is not, and is soon to ascend from the abyss. And he goes forth unto destruction. And the inhabitants upon the earth (those whose names have not been written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world) shall be amazed upon seeing the beast who was and is not. (Abyssos g12)
9 Nene kitin nan kpilizu ujinjin. Kuzure titudu kuzurari alenge na uwane sosin ku.
And this is for one who understands, who has wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains, upon which the woman sits, and they are seven kings.
10 Inan ago kuzurari tutung. Ago afaun namalu diyu, warun duku, na umong nsa da ba; a wadak, ama yiti na nin damdaunu ba.
Five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet arrived. And when he arrives, he must remain for a brief time.
11 Finawan tene fo na fiduku, na fiduku nene ba, amere litime ugo unlir; bara nani adi nanya nago kuzure, amanin du nmulsu nanit.
And the beast who was, and is not, the same is also the eighth, and he is of the seven, and he goes forth unto destruction.
12 Awulu likure na uwa yene ago likure na uwa yene ago likurari alenge na isa sere kipin tigo mene ba, bara na ima seru likara nafo ago nanya kube kurun ligowe nin finawantene.
And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings; these have not yet received a kingdom, but they shall receive authority, as if they were kings, for one hour, after the beast.
13 Alele dinin kibinai kirum inin naa likara tigo mene kiti finawan tene.
These hold to one plan, and they shall hand over their power and authority to the beast.
14 Ima su likum nin kukame. Bara nani ku kame ma li nani nin likum bara na ame Cikilari nilariari nin go nago-ligowe ninghe alenge na ina fere nani, anang yenu sa uyenu.”
These shall fight against the Lamb, and the Lamb shall conquer them. For he is the Lord of lords and the King of kings. And those who are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.”
15 Unan kadura Kutelle wa woroi, “Nmyene na uyene, kikaa na ukaruwe sosinku, anitari, ligozin nanit, nipinpin, nin tilem tilem.
And he said to me: “The waters that you saw, where the harlot sits, are peoples and nations and languages.
16 Awulu likure na uyene-unung nan finawan tene ma nari ukaruwe, utighe aso usane nin fisere, ima li inawamye ima jujughe nin nla.
And the ten horns that you saw on the beast, these shall hate the woman who fornicates, and they shall make her desolate and naked, and they shall chew her flesh, and they shall burn her completely with fire.
17 Kutelle nati nanya nayii mene iyeru unufe mye nyenu ine likara udu funawan tene asu tigo udu kubi ko na uliru Kutelle nkulu.
For God has granted to their hearts that they may do to her whatever is pleasing, so that they may give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God may be completed.
18 Uwane na uyene, kipin kidyawari na kidi tigo kitene nago nyii vat.”
And the woman that you saw is the great City, which holds a kingdom above that of the kings of the earth.”
