< Revelation 13 >

1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea; and I saw a beast rising out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and upon its horns ten diadems, and upon its heads names of blasphemy.
Zvino ndakamira pamusoro pejecha regungwa, ndokuona chikara chichibuda mugungwa, chine misoro minomwe nenyanga gumi, nepamusoro penyanga dzacho korona gumi, nepamusoro pemisoro yacho zita rekunyomba.
2 And the beast which I saw was like to a leopardess, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth as a lion's mouth; and the dragon gave to it his power, and his throne, and great authority;
Zvino chikara ichi chandakaona chakange chakaita sengwe, netsoka dzacho sedzebheya, nemuromo wacho semuromo weshumba. Zibukanana rikapa kwachiri simba raro, nechigaro charo cheushe, nemasimba makuru.
3 and one of his heads [was] as slain to death, and his wound of death had been healed: and the whole earth wondered after the beast.
Zvino ndakaona umwe wemisoro yacho wakaita sewakaurawa kusvika parufu; asi vanga racho rekufa rakange rapodzwa; nyika yese ikashamisika shure kwechikara.
4 And they did homage to the dragon, because he gave the authority to the beast; and they did homage to the beast, saying, Who [is] like to the beast? and who can make war with it?
Vakanamata zibukanana rakapa simba kuchikara, vakanamata chikara, vachiti: Ndiani wakafanana nechikara? Ndiani anogona kuita hondo nacho?
5 And there was given to it a mouth, speaking great things and blasphemies; and there was given to it authority to pursue its career forty-two months.
Zvino kukapiwa kwachiri muromo unotaura zvinhu zvikuru nekunyomba; kukapiwawo kwachiri simba rekubata mwedzi makumi mana nemiviri.
6 And it opened its mouth for blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle, and those who have their tabernacle in the heaven.
Ndokushamisa muromo wacho kuti chinyombe Mwari, nekunyomba zita rake, netabhenakeri yake, neavo vanogara kudenga.
7 And there was given to it to make war with the saints, and to overcome them; and there was given to it authority over every tribe, and people, and tongue, and nation;
Zvino kwakapiwa kwachiri kuita hondo nevatsvene, nekuvakunda; kukapiwawo kwachiri masimba pamusoro perudzi rwese nerurimi nerudzi.
8 and all that dwell on the earth shall do it homage, [every one] whose name had not been written from [the] founding of [the] world in the book of life of the slain Lamb.
Uye vese vanogara panyika vachachinamata, vane mazita asina kunyorwa mubhuku reupenyu reGwayana rakabaiwa kubva pakuvambwa kwenyika.
9 If any one has an ear, let him hear.
Kana umwe ane nzeve, ngaanzwe.
10 If any one [leads] into captivity, he goes into captivity. If any one shall kill with [the] sword, he must with [the] sword be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.
Kana umwe achiunganidza muutapwa, anoenda muutapwa; kana umwe achiuraya nemunondo, zvakamufanira kuurawa nemunondo. Ndipo pane kutsungirira nerutendo rwevatsvene.
11 And I saw another beast rising out of the earth; and it had two horns like to a lamb, and spake as a dragon;
Zvino ndakaona chimwe chikara chichikwira kubva panyika; uye chakange chine nyanga mbiri segwayana, ndokutaura sezibukanana.
12 and it exercises all the authority of the first beast before it, and causes the earth and those that dwell in it to do homage to the first beast, whose wound of death was healed.
Uye chakashandisa simba rese rechikara chekutanga pamberi pacho uye chinoita kuti nyika nevagere mukati mayo kuti vanamate chikara chekutanga, chiya chine vanga rinouraya rakaporeswa.
13 And it works great signs, that it should cause even fire to come down from heaven to the earth before men.
Chinoitawo zviratidzo zvikuru, kuti nemoto chinoita kuti uburuke kubva kudenga kuuya panyika pamberi pevanhu.
14 And it deceives those that dwell upon the earth by reason of the signs which it was given to it to work before the beast, saying to those that dwell upon the earth to make an image to the beast, which has the wound of the sword, and lived.
Zvino chinonyengera avo vanogara panyika nezviratidzo zvakapiwa kwachiri kuti chiite pamberi pechikara, chichiti kune vanogara panyika, ngavaitire mufananidzo chikara chakange chine vanga remunondo, chikararama.
15 And it was given to it to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should also speak, and should cause that as many as should not do homage to the image of the beast should be killed.
Zvino kwakapiwa kwachiri kupa mweya kumufananidzo wechikara, kutiwo mufananidzo wechikara utaure, chigoita kuti vese vasinganamati mufananidzo wechikara vaurawe.
16 And it causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free and the bondmen, that they should give them a mark upon their right hand or upon their forehead;
Chinoitawo vese, vadiki nevakuru, uye vafumi nevarombo, uye vakasununguka nevaranda, kuti vapiwe mucherechedzo muruoko rwavo rwerudyi, kana pahuma dzavo,
17 and that no one should be able to buy or sell save he that had the mark, the name of the beast, or the number of its name.
uye kuti kusava neumwe anogona kutenga kana kutengesa, kunze kwaiye ane mucherechedzo, kana zita rechikara kana nhamba yezita racho.
18 Here is wisdom. He that has understanding let him count the number of the beast: for it is a man's number; and its number [is] six hundred [and] sixty-six.
Hehuno uchenjeri. Ane kunzwisisa ngaaverenge nhamba yechikara; nokuti inhamba yemunhu; uye nhamba yacho ndimazana matanhatu nemakumi matanhatu nenhanhatu.
