< Revelation 21 >

1 I saw the new heaven and the new earth. For the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and the sea is no more.
Nipele nakuweni kwinani kwa sambano ni chilambo cha sambano. Pakuŵa kwinani kwaandanda ni chilambo cha ndanda ipiite, ni bahali nganijipagwa sooni.
2 And I, John, saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
None nauweni musi wauswela, Yelusalemu ja sambano, uchitulukaga kutyochela kwinani kwa Akunnungu uli uŵichikwe chile, mpela mwali jwaulombela jwaŵichikwe chile kwa ŵankwakwe.
3 And I heard a great voice from the throne, saying: “Behold the tabernacle of God with men. And he will dwell with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be their God with them.
Napilikene liloŵe lyekulungwa kutyochela pa chitengu cha umwenye lichitiji, “Nnole! Kumusi kwa Akunnungu kuli pasikati ja ŵandu! Nombewo chatame pasikati ja ŵanyawo nombe ŵanyawo chaaŵe ŵandu ŵakwe. Akunnungu asyene chatame nawo ni chaaŵe Akunnungu ŵao.
4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes. And death shall be no more. And neither mourning, nor crying out, nor grief shall be anymore. For the first things have passed away.”
Ŵelewo chiŵasyule misosi jao jose. Chiwa ngachipagwa sooni, atamuno ngaipagwa ipetesi, atamuno kulila, atamuno masauko sooni, pakuŵa indu yose ya kalakala ipiite!”
5 And the One who was sitting upon the throne, said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And he said to me, “Write, for these words are entirely faithful and true.”
Nipele jwakutama pa chitengu cha umwenye jula ŵaŵechete, “Nnole! Yose nguipanganya ya sambano.” Sooni ŵasalile, “Nnembe indu yi, pakuŵa aga maloŵe gali gakukulupilichika ni gasyene!”
6 And he said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To those who thirst, I will give freely from the fountain of the water of life.
Nipele ŵasalile, “Gamasile! Une ndili Alufa ni Omega, yaani, Jwakuitandisya indu yose ni Jwakumalichisya indu yose. Jwakwete njota chinaape meesi ga kung'wa kutyochela mu uliŵa wa meesi ga umi pangali malipilo.
7 Whoever prevails shall possess these things. And I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
Juchapunde chapochele gelega, ni une chime Akunnungu jwao, nombejo chaaŵe mwanangu.
8 But the fearful, and the unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and drug users, and idolaters, and all liars, these shall be a part of the pool burning with fire and sulphur, which is the second death.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
Nambo ŵandu ŵa woga ni ŵandu ŵangakukulupilila ni ŵandu ŵa wamba ni ŵa kuulaga ni ŵandu ŵa chigwagwa ni ŵandu ŵa usaŵi ni ŵandu ŵakuchipopelela chinyago ni ŵandu ŵa umani wose, liuto lyao lili litanda lya maganga gaakukolela mooto, chele chili chiwa chaaŵili.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
9 And one of the seven Angels, those holding the bowls filled with the seven last afflictions, approached and spoke with me, saying: “Come, and I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
Nipele jumo jwa achikatumetume ŵa kwinani saba jwali ni mbale saba syasigumbele iputiko saba ya mbesi ŵaiche ni kuusalila, “Njise! Ni une chinannosye mwali jwaulombela, ŵankwakwe Mwanangondolo.”
10 And he took me up in spirit to a great and high mountain. And he showed me the Holy City Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
Nipele Mbumu jwa Akunnungu ŵanongwesye ni katumetume jwa kwinani jo ŵanyigele mpaka kuchikwesya chachileu. Ŵanosisye musi weswela yaani Yelusalemu uchitulukaga kutyochela kwinani kwa Akunnungu,
11 having the glory of God. And its light was like that of a precious stone, even like that of the jasper stone or like crystal.
uching'alimaga kwa ukulu wa Akunnungu. Musi wo kung'alima kwakwe kukulandana ni lilanguka lya liganga lya ndalama jekulungwa lyalikuŵilanjikwa yaspi, lyalikuchenga mpela lindala.
12 And it had a wall, great and high, having twelve gates. And at the gates were twelve Angels. And names were written upon them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel.
Sooni musi wo waliji ni likumba lyalileu ni lyalikulungwa, lilyaliji ni minango kumi na mbili, ni kila nnango umo wagosekwe ni katumetume jwa kwinani. Ni pachanya pa kila nnango palembekwe liina limo mwa meena ga ngosyo kumi na mbili sya ŵandu ŵa ku Isilaeli.
13 On the East were three gates, and on the North were three gates, and on the South were three gates, and on the West were three gates.
Mbande syose syaliji ni minango jitatu, kulikukopoka lyuŵa kwana minango jitatu ni kumpoto kwana minango jitatu ni kulikutiŵila lyuŵa kwana minango jitatu ni kulujenda kwana minango jitatu.
14 And the wall of the City had twelve foundations. And upon them were the twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
Likumba lya wele musi lyataŵikwe pachanya misingi ja maganga kumi na mbili ni pa misingi jo galembekwe meena ga achinduna kumi na mbili ŵa Mwanangondolo.
15 And he who was speaking with me was holding a golden measuring reed, in order to measure the City, and its gates and wall.
Katumetume jwa kwinani juŵaŵechetaga none ŵaliji ni chitela cha kupimila chachikolochekwe ni sahabu, kuti akombole kuupima musi ni minango jakwe ni makumba gakwe.
16 And the city is laid out as a square, and so its length is as great as the width. And he measured the city with the golden reed for twelve thousand stadia, and its length and height and breadth were equal.
Nipele musi ula waliji ni mbande ncheche syakulandana, uleu ni mapana gakwe yalandene, ŵaupimile musi ula kwa chitela chakwe, uleu ni wipi ni lisusa, mpela maili elufu moja na mia tano.
17 And he measured its wall as one hundred and forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, which is of an Angel.
Katumetume jwa kwinani jula ŵapimile likumba lya musi ula, lyaliji makono sitini kwa chipimo chiŵasyoŵelele ŵandu.
18 And the structure of its wall was of jasper stone. Yet truly, the city itself was of pure gold, similar to pure glass.
Lyele likumba lyaliji litaŵikwe kwa maganga gamachejeu ga ndalama jekulungwa gagakuŵilanjikwa yasipi ni musi usyene waliji utaŵikwe ni sahabu jambone, jajikuchenga mpela lindala.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was of jasper, the second was of sapphire, the third was of chalcedony, the fourth was of emerald,
Maganga gagataŵile nsingi wa likumba lyo kusyungula musi gakolochekwe ni maganga ga ndalama. Nsingi waandanda wataŵikwe kwa maganga gamachejeu gagali mpela maganga ga yasipi, ni nsingi waŵili waliji wa maganga ga safilo ni nsingi waatatu wa maganga ga kalikedoni ni nsingi waancheche wa maganga ga sumalidi,
20 the fifth was of sardonyx, the sixth was of sardius, the seventh was of chrysolite, the eighth was of beryl, the ninth was of topaz, the tenth was of chrysoprasus, the eleventh was of jacinth, the twelfth was of amethyst.
nsingi wa nsano waliji wa salidoniki ni nsingi wa sita waliji wa akiki ni nsingi wa saba waliji wa kilisolito ni nsingi wa nane waliji wa sabalajadi ni nsingi wa tisa waliji wa manjano ni nsingi wa kumi waliji wa kilisopiloso ni nsingi wa kumi na moja waliji wa yasinto ni nsingi wa kumi na mbili waliji wa ametisito.
21 And the twelve gates are twelve pearls, one for each, so that each gate was made from a single pearl. And the main street of the city was of pure gold, similar to transparent glass.
Ni minango jajikulungwa kumi na mbili jila, kila umo wakolochekwe kwa lulu jimo. Litala lyekulungwa lya musi lyakolochekwe kwa sahabu jambone jajikuchenga mpela lindala.
22 And I saw no temple in it. For the Lord God Almighty is its temple, and the Lamb.
Mmusi ula nganinajiwona Nyuumba ja Akunnungu, pakuŵa Ambuje Akunnungu ŵa Ukombole ni Mwanangondolo alinji pelepo, kwayele Nyuumba ja Akunnungu ngajikusachilwa.
23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine in it. For the glory of God has illuminated it, and the Lamb is its lamp.
Nipele mu musi mo ngamukusachilwa lyuŵa liŵale atamuno lwesi, pakuŵa ukulu wa Akunnungu ukwalanguchisya kwa lumuli lwakwe lwaluli Mwanangondolo.
24 And the nations shall walk by its light. And the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honor into it.
Ŵandu ŵa ilambo chatame mu lyele lilanguka ni mamwenye ŵa ilambo yose chauichisye musi wo ukulu.
25 And its gates shall not be closed throughout the day, for there shall be no night in that place.
Minango jekulungwa ja musi ula ngajiugalikwa kose, pakuŵa ngachipagwa chilo.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
Ŵandu wose ŵa ilambo chaiichisye ukulu ni luchimbichimbi mmusi mo.
27 There shall not enter into it anything defiled, nor anything causing an abomination, nor anything false, but only those who have been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb.
Nambo chachili chose chakunyakala ngachijinjila mwelemo ng'o, atamuno mundu jwalijose jwakuintendekanya yakuchima pane ya unami. Nambo chajinjile aŵala pe ŵaŵalembekwe meena gao mu chitabu cha umi cha Mwanangondolo.
