1 Na ile imone wakat vat uwa yene kan gono kadura Kutelle ntulsu cin dak nnuzu kitene kani. A wa di nin likara lidya, uye wa li kanang nin gongon mye.
After these things, I saw another messenger, coming down out of heaven, —having great authority; and, the earth, was illumined with his glory.
2 A taa ntyet nin liwui lidya, abenle, “Udewu, udewu ubabalila udiyai a so kitin lisosin na gbergenu, kiti lisosin vat ti ruhu ti nanzang nin kiti lisosin vat kijin kuzenzen.
And he cried out, with a mighty voice, saying—Fallen! fallen! is Babylon the Great, and hath become a habitation of demons, and a prison of every impure spirit, and a prison of every impure and hated bird;
3 Nipinpin ne vat nsono ntoro nzina mye na mina da ninghe tinana nayi. Ago nyii nasu uzina ninghe. Anan malesulesa nanya nyii so anan nimon na cara bara likara lisosin limang mye.”
Because, by reason [of the wine] of the wrath of her lewdness, have all the nations fallen, and, the kings of the earth, with her, did commit lewdness, and, the merchants of the earth, by reason of the power of her wantonness, waxed rich.
4 Nlanza nlon liwui nnuzu ketene kani nworo, “Nuzun nanya mene, anit ning, bara i wa seru imemun inanzan mye.
And I heard another voice out of heaven, saying—Come forth, my people, out of her, —that ye may have no fellowship with her sins, and, of her plagues, that ye may not receive;
5 Alapi mye malkulu udu kitene kani, Kutelle nin katwa ka nanzan mye.
because her sins were joined together as far as heaven, and God hath remembered her unrighteous deeds.
6 Kurtunghe ku imon na ame na su anite, kurtwaghe ku tiba iman ile na ana kurtuz anite ku; nanya kakup ka na awa ketelin, ketelenghe ti ba.
Render ye unto her, as, she also, rendered, and double [the] double, according to her works, —in the cup wherein she mixed, mix, unto her, double, —
7 Nafo na ana ghantin liti mye anin su mang, naghe gbardang uniu nin tunana naye. A woro nanya kibinai mye, 'Nsosin nafo ushono ngo; Na meng unan diru nlisari ba, na iwa yenu kibinai kisirnebai.
As much as she glorified herself, and waxed wanton, so much give, unto her, torment and grief: —because, in her heart, she saith—I sit a Queen, and, widow, am I not, and, grief, in nowise shall I see!
8 Bara nani imon inanzan mye ma se ghe: ukull, lisosin nayi asirne, nin kukpon. Ula ma liighe.”
Therefore, in one day, shall have come her plagues, —death and grief and famine; and, with fire, shall she be burned up; —because, mighty, is the [Lord] God who hath judged her.
9 Agon yee na ina su uzina ninghe inani na nuzu insalin lanzun niliru ninghe ima gilu nin ghe i wa yene mcin nli nla mye din ghanju.
And they shall weep and wail over her—shall the kings of the earth who, with her, committed lewdness and waxed wanton, —as soon as they see the smoke of her burning, —
10 I ma yisinupiit, idin lanzu fiyu nniyu mye, mbenlu, “Kash, kash udu kipin ki diya, Babila, kipin llikara! Nanyan kube kurun uniu fe ndaa.”
afar off, standing, because of their fear of her torment, saying—Alas! alas! the great city! Babylon, the mighty city! That, in one hour, hath come thy judgment.
11 Anan malesulesu nye gila nin lisosin nayi asirne bara ame, bara na umong ma kuru asere imon nlesu mye tutung ba-
And, the merchants of the earth, weep and grieve over her, because, their cargo, no one, buyeth any more:
12 Imon lesu ni zinariyanin, nin nazurfa, nin natola nikurfung, nin luu-luu, nin liniw ukpekpet, nin nimon nmyein nafo, nin siliki, nin malufi vat nin naca nikurfuung, nin vat nishik nicaut, nin fikoro fishine, nin fikoro fisirne nin mabil,
cargo of gold, and silver, and precious stone, and pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and every article of ivory, and every article of wood most precious, and of copper, and of iron, and of marble,
13 nin fikoro, nin animon, nin turare, nin mai kuya kunang, nin lubar, nin alkama, nin nina, nin nakam, nin nibark, nin karusa, nin nacin, nin ti lai na nit.
and cinnamon, and spice, and incense, and unguent, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and [cargo] of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies, and lives of men.
14 Ku mat na ca ko na una din nin serwe i wulu fi. Vat mmang fe nin nimon fo figiri i nana kiti fe, na ima kuru ise inin tutung ba.
And, the fruit of the coveting of thy soul, hath departed from thee, and, all things rich and bright, have perished from thee; and, no more, in anywise, for them, shall they seek.
15 Ale na i wa din nlesu nile imone se ikurfung kang bara usu mye yisina piit ninghe bara fiiyu nniyu mye, kuculu nin tiit nayi asirne.
The merchants of these things, who were enriched by her, afar off, shall stand, because of their fear of her torment, weeping, and grieving,
16 I ma woro, “Kash, kash nin kipin ki diya kane na ki wa su kuyuk nin ni ninoon icene, nanya nimon nmyein nafa, nin kye kidowome nin nizinariya, nin nimoon natuf nikurfung nin luu-luu.”
as they say—Alas! alas! the great city! She that was arrayed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and precious stone, and pearl, —
17 Nanya kube kurum vat nilele imoon nikurfunghe nana. Vat nanan con njirgi myeen, vat nanang cin nanya njirgi myeen, nin na le na i din sessu imonli nanyan kurawa ku dundya we, yisina piit.
That, in one hour, hath been laid waste, such great wealth as this! And, every pilot, and every passenger, and mariners, and as many as, by the sea, carry on traffic, afar off did stand,
18 I taa ntest na iyene incin nli nla mye. I woro, “Kiyeme kipinari masin fo ka kipin ki dya?”
and they cried out, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying—What city is like unto the great city?
19 i tiza lidao nidowo mene, inin taa nteet, ning myiziin mi gbagbai nin lisosin tiyoom, “Kash, kash udu kipin kidya kane ki kaa na vat nale na i di nin tijirgin myen kurawa kudin dya nda se ikurfun ku unuzun dukiya mye. Bara na nanya kubi kurum ida nanza ghe.”
And they cast dust upon their heads, and cried out, weeping and grieving, saying—Alas! alas! the great city! Whereby were made rich all that had ships in the sea, by reason of her costliness, —that, in one hour, she hath been laid waste!
20 “Taan liburi liboo bara ameh, kitene kani, anung anit alau, anang kaduran Yesu, nin nanan liru nin nuu Kutelle, bara na Kutelle nda nin mawucu wuce mye lite mye!”
Be glad over her, thou heaven! And ye saints, and ye apostles, and ye prophets! For that God hath exacted your vindication from her.
21 Unan katwa Kutelle yira litala nafo litala tiyazung a too linin nanya kurawa kudya we, a benle, “Nanya nlo libau ule, uBabila, kipin kidya, i ma fillu kutyein nin tinana nayi na i ma kuru i yene tutung ba.
And one mighty messenger lifted a stone, as it were a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying—Thus, with main force, shall be cast down, Babylon the great city, —and in nowise be found any more;
22 Ti wui nanang foo nidowo, anang navu, anan pee nishiriya, nin nanang wulsu na langtung na i ma kuru ilanza nani. Nanya fe ba na i ma kuru i se anang makeke nimon nanya fe tutung ba. Na ima kuru i lanzan tiyazun nanya fe tutung ba.
And sound of harp-singers, and musicians, and flute-players, and trumpeters, —in nowise be heard in thee any more; and any artisan [of any art], —in nowise be found in thee any more; and sound of millstone, —in nowise be found in thee any more;
23 Nkanan nla ma bicu na ima kuru iyene mining tutung ba. Liwui na wanlapese nang na lese na ima kuru ilanza tutun ba, bara na imoon nlesu fe wadi ashoono na goo nyii, nin myin uwa rusuzu nani ning niyuu fe.
And light of lamp, —in nowise shine in thee any more; and voice of bridegroom and bride, —in nowise be heard in thee any more; because, thy merchants, were the great ones of the earth, because, with thy sorcery, were all the nations deceived:
24 Nanya mye i wa se nmyii nanang liru ning nuu Kutelle nin nanit a lau, ning myii na le na i wa mulsu nani nanya nyii.”
And, in her, blood of prophets and saints, was found, —and of all who had been slain upon the earth.
