< Revelation 18 >

1 After these things I saw another angel descending out of the heaven, having great authority: and the earth was lightened with his glory.
Baada jha fenu efe nambwene malaika iselela pasi kuhoma mu mabhengu. Muene ajhe ni mamlaka mabhaha, ni nchi jhamulikibhu kwa bhutukufu bhwa muene.
2 And he cried with a strong voice, saying, Great Babylon has fallen, has fallen, and has become the habitation of demons, and a hold of every unclean spirit, and a hold of every unclean and hated bird;
Alelili kwa sauti mbaha, akajobha, “Ubinili, ubinili, bhola mji mbaha Babeli! magono agha ndo sehemu jhajhitama mapepo, ni sehemu jhajhitama khila roho chafu, ni sehemu paitama khila roho chafu, ni sehemu paitama khila nchafu ni kidege Kya kidadisya.
3 because all the nations have drunk of the wine of the fury of her fornication; and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have been enriched through the might of her luxury.
Kwakujha mataifa ghoha ghanywili mvinyo jha tamaa jha uasherati bha muene ambajho jhikandetela ghadhabu. Bhafalme bha nchi bhezinili naku. Bhabhomba biashara bha nchi bhajhe matajiri kwa nghofu jha maisha gha muene gha anasa.”
4 And I heard another voice out of the heaven saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye have not fellowship in her sins, and that ye do not receive of her plagues:
Kabhele napeliki sauti jhenge kuhoma kumbinguni jhijobha, “mubhokayi kwa muene bhanu bha nene, ili musihidi kushifiki mu dhambi sya muene, na ili musihidi kujhambelela mapigo gha muene ghoha.
5 for her sins have been heaped on one another up to the heaven, and God has remembered her unrighteousnesses.
Dhambi sya muene sikorondiki panani kama mbingu, ni K'yara aghakhombuiki matendo gha muene maovu.
6 Recompense her even as she has recompensed; and double [to her] double, according to her works. In the cup which she has mixed, mix to her double.
Mundepayi kama kya abhalepili bhamana, na mukandepayi mara sibhele kwa kya abhombili; mu kikombi kya akichangenye munchanganyilayi mara mbili kwandabha jha muene.
7 So much as she has glorified herself and lived luxuriously, so much torment and grief give to her. Because she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and I am not a widow; and I shall in no wise see grief:
Kama kyaakitukuisi muene, na atamili kwa anasa, mumpelayi malombosi ghamehele ni huzuni. Kwa kujha ijobha mu ndumbula jha muene, 'Nitamili kama malkia; Wala mjane lepi, na nibeta lepi kubhona maombolezo.'
8 for this reason in one day shall her plagues come, death and grief and famine, and she shall be burnt with fire; for strong [is the] Lord God who has judged her.
Kwa hiyo muligono limonga mapigo gha muene ghibeta kun'sindwa: Kifu, maombolesu, ni njala. Ibetakupya ni muoto, kwa kujha Bwana K'yara ajhe ni nghofu, na ndo mhukumu ghwa muene.”
9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication, and lived luxuriously with her, shall weep and wail over her, when they see the smoke of her burning,
Bhafalme bha nchi syasihongene ni kuchanyikibhwa pamonga ni muene bhibeta kulela ni kuombolesela pabhibeta kubhubhona lyosi lya kupya kwa muene.
10 standing afar off, through fear of her torment, saying, Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! for in one hour thy judgment is come.
Bhibeta kujhema patali naku, kwa hofu jha maumivu gha muene ni kujobha, “Ole, ole kwa mji mbaha, Babeli, mji bhwa bhujhe ni nghofu! kwa lisaa limonga hukumu jha jhobhi j'hidhidili.”
11 And the merchants of the earth weep and grieve over her, because no one buys their lading any more;
Bhabhomba biashara bha nchi mulelayi ni kuombolesya kwa ndabha jha muene kwakujha ajhelepi hata mmonga jhaihemela bidhaa sya muene kabhele
12 lading of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and pearl, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet dye, and all thyine wood, and every article in ivory, and every article in most precious wood, and in brass, and in iron, and in marble,
- bidhaa sya dhahabu, fedha, maganga gha thamani, lulu, kitani jhinofu, zambarau, hariri, jhidung'u aina syoha sya mabehe jha harufu jhinofu, kila khenu kya mang'eru gha ndovu, khila ambakyo khenu kyatengenesibhu kwa mabehe gha thamani, shaba, lichuma, liganga,
13 and cinnamon, and amomum, and incense, and unguent, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and of horses, and of chariots, and of bodies, and souls of men.
Mdalasini, fiungu, uvumba, manemane, ubani, mvinyo, mafuta, sembe unofu, ngano ng'ombi ni likondoo, farasi ni magari, ni bhatumwa, ni roho jha bhanu.
14 And the ripe fruits which were the lust of thy soul have departed from thee, and all fair and splendid things have perished from thee, and they shall not find them any more at all.
Matunda gha ughanogheleghe kwa nghofu sya jhobhi ghabhokili kuhoma kwa bhebhe. Anasa sya jhobhi syoha ni mapambanu ghabhokili, ghibeta lepi kubhoneka kabhele.
15 The merchants of these things, who had been enriched through her, shall stand afar off through fear of her torment, weeping and grieving,
Bhabhomba biashara bha fenu efe bho bhakabhili utajiri kwa mapenzi gha muene bhibeta jhema patali kuhoma kwa muene kwa ndabha jha hofu jha maumivu gha muene, bhibeta lela ni sauti jha maombolesu.
16 saying, Woe, woe, the great city, which [was] clothed with fine linen and purple and scarlet, and had ornaments of gold and precious stones and pearls!
Bhakajobha, “Ole, ole mji bhola mbaha bhwa bhufwekibhu kitani kinofu, zambarau, ni jhidung'u, ni kupambibhwa kwa dhahabu ni vito fya thamani ni lulu!”
17 for in one hour so great riches has been made desolate. And every steersman, and every one who sailed to any place, and sailors, and all who exercise their calling on the sea, stood afar off,
Mu lisaa limonga utajiri bhuoha obho bhwa bhokili. Khila nahodha ghwa meli, khila baharia, ni bhoha bhamasi ni bhoha bhabhibhomba mbombo mu bahari, bhajhemili patali.
18 and cried, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying, What [city] is like to the great city?
Bhalelili bho bhalibhuene lyosi lya kupya kwa muene. Bhakajobha, ndo mji bhaloki bhwiwaningana ni mji obho mbaha?”
19 and cast dust upon their heads, and cried, weeping and grieving, saying, Woe, woe, the great city, in which all that had ships in the sea were enriched through her costliness! for in one hour she has been made desolate.
Bhataghili bhalelili, bhahomisi mahosi ni kuombolesya, “Ole, ole mji mbaha mahali poha pajhele ni meli sya bhene mu bahari bhajhele matajiri kutokani ni mali sya muene. Mu lisaa limonga bhujhangamili.”
20 Rejoice over her, heaven, and [ye] saints and apostles and prophets; for God has judged your judgment upon her.
“Muhobhokayi panani pa muene, mbingu, muenga bhaumini, mitume ni manabii kwandabha K'yara aletili hukumu jha muenga panani pa muene!”
21 And a strong angel took up a stone, as a great millstone, and cast [it] into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall Babylon the great city be cast down, and shall be found no more at all;
Malaika bhenye nghofu ajhinuili liganga kama liganga libhaha lya kusyaghila ni kulitagha mu bahari, akajobha, “Kwa njela ajhe, Babeli, bhola mji mbaha bhwibeta kutaghibhwa pasi kwa ukatili na wibeta lepi kubhoneka kabhele.
22 and voice of harp-singers and musicians and flute-players and trumpeters shall not be heard any more at all in thee, and no artificer of any art shall be found any more at all in thee, and voice of millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee,
Sauti jha finanda, bhanamuziki, bhakina filimbi, tarumbeta bhibeta lepi kup'el'eka kwa muenga kabhele.
23 and light of lamp shall shine no more at all in thee, and voice of bridegroom and bride shall be heard no more at all in thee; for thy merchants were the great ones of the earth; for by thy sorcery have all the nations been deceived.
Mwanga ghwa taa wibeta lepi kuangasya mugati mwa bhebhe. Sauti jha Bwana harusi ni bibi harusi sibetalepi kupelikibhwa mugati mwa bhebhe ndabha bhabhomba biashara bha jhobhi bhajhele bhabhaha bha nchi ni bha mataifa bhakofibhu kwa uhabi bhwa jhobhi.
24 And in her was found [the] blood of prophets and saints, and of all the slain upon the earth.
Mugati mwa muene damu jha manabii ni bhaamini jhabhonekene, ni damu jha bhoha bhabhakomibhu panani pa nchi.”
