< Revelation 21 >

1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea exists no more.
Mpawo ndakabona ijulu pya enyika mpya, nkambo ijulu lyakutanguna anyika yakusanguna zyakali zyfwa, alwizi telwakachiliwo.
2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of the heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
Ndakabona dolopo usalede iJelusalema impya, ilyakeza aansi kuzwa kujulu kuli Leza kalibambidwe mbuli mwinga mbabambila mulumi wakwe.
3 And I heard a loud voice out of the heaven, saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and he shall tabernacle with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, their God.
Ndakamvwa ijwi pati lizwa kuchuno chabulemu kaliti, “Boona! ibusena bwachikkalilo cha Leza buli mubantu, alimwi uyokkala ambabo. Byaoba bantu bakwe alimwi Leza lwakwe uyoba ambaabo alimwi uyoba Leza wabo.
4 And he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall not exist any more, nor grief, nor cry, nor distress shall exist any more, for the former things have passed away.
Uyosiinda misozi yonseni kumenso aabo, alimwi takuchikabi lufu, kana kuusa, kana kulila, naba machise. Izintu zyechiindi zyamana.
5 And he that sat on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he says [to me], Write, for these words are true and faithful.
Ooyo iwakakkede achuno chabwami wakati, “Boona! Ndichita zintu zyonse kuti zibe zipya.” Wakati, “Lemba zintu eezi aansi nkambo aaya majwi alasyomeka alimwimi ngakasimpe.”
6 And he said to me, It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to him that thirsts of the fountain of the water of life freely.
Wakandaambila kuti eezi zintu zyayinda! Ndendime Alufa a Omega, imatalikilo amagozezyo. Kuli ooyo uumvwa nyota, ndinomupa chakunywa kakutakwe muulo kuzwa kukasensa kamaanzi abuumi.
7 He that overcomes shall inherit these things, and I will be to him God, and he shall be to me son.
Ooyo uzunda uyokkona zintu eezi, alimwi ndiyoba Leza wakwe, alimwi uyoba mwana wangu.
8 But to the fearful and unbelieving, [and sinners], and those who make themselves abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part [is] in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone; which is the second death. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
Pesi kuli abo bayowa, batakwe lusyomo, abazumina masunko, abajayi abasibwamu, bakomba zikozyanisyo, ababeji boonse, busena bwabo buyooba kubbibi pati lyamulilo uuyaka. Oolo ndolufu lwabili.” (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
9 And there came one of the seven angels which had had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, and spoke with me, saying, Come here, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.
Umwi wangilozi izili musanu azibili, wakeza kuli ndime, oyo wakajisi insoosa zili musanu azibili izyakajisi michelo yamelelezyo ilimusanu azibili, alimwi wakati, “Kweza okuno! ndilakutondezya bwiinga, imukayintu wa Mwana wa Mbelele.
10 And he carried me away in [the] Spirit, [and set me] on a great and high mountain, and shewed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of the heaven from God,
Mpawo wakandibweza mumuunda wanditola kuchilundu ichipati chilamfu akuyonditondezya dolopo usalala Jelusalemu kaliza aansi kuzwa kujulu kuli Leza.
11 having the glory of God. Her shining [was] like a most precious stone, as a crystal-like jasper stone;
Jelusalemu yali abulemu bwa Leza, alimwi ibwebeesi bwayo bwali mbuli inchooko mbotu loko, mbuli ibbwe lyachimpanzi cha jasipa injoloma.
12 having a great and high wall; having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names inscribed, which are those of the twelve tribes of [the] sons of Israel.
Yali abupati, ibulambo bulamfu buli amilyango ili kkumi ayibili, kakuli zyooko zili kkumi azibili kumilyango. Amilyango kwakali lembedwe imazina alikkumi aabili aamisyobo yabana ba Izilayeli.
13 On [the] east three gates; and on [the] north three gates; and on [the] south three gates; and on [the] west three gates.
Kubuzwezuba kwakali milyango yotatwe, kumbo kwakali milyango yotatwe, kunsi kwakali milyango itaatu alimwi, akububbila kwakali milyango yotatwe.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
Ibulambo bwalubaya bwadolopo bwakali antalisyo zili kkumi azibili, alimwi antalisyo kwakali mazina aali kkumi aabili abasikwiiya ba Mwana wa Mbelele.
15 And he that spoke with me had a golden reed [as] a measure, that he might measure the city, and its gates, and its wall.
Ooyo wakaambuula andime wakajisi mweelo wakabulo kangolida wakweela idolopo, amilyango yalyo, abulambo bwalyo.
16 And the city lies four-square, and its length [is] as much as the breadth. And he measured the city with the reed — twelve thousand stadia: the length and the breadth and height of it are equal.
Idolopo lyakali tendebete bwelene mabbazu woonse, bulamfu bwalyo bwakalelene abwiinge bwalyo. Wakeela idolopo amweelo wakabulo, izyuulu ikkumi azibili zya sitadiya kumweelo wabulamfu ( bulamfu bwalyo, bwanda, abwiime mujulu zyakalelelene).
17 And he measured its wall, a hundred [and] forty-four cubits, [a] man's measure, that is, [the] angel's.
Wakeela alimwi ibwanda bwawo, wajana kuti buli azikokola zili mwanda amakumi aane azine, mbuli mumwelo wabuntu (kakuli alubo ngumweelo wendangilo).
18 And the building of its wall [was] jasper; and the city pure gold, like pure glass:
Bulambo bwakayakidwe ajasipa alimwimidolopo lyakayakidwe aangolide lwayolwayo, mbuli bunjoloma bbalabala.
19 the foundations of the wall of the city [were] adorned with every precious stone: the first foundation, jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;
Intalisyo zyabulambo zyakali bambikene abubotu bwamisyobo yoonse yamabwe mebeesi. Itaanzi yakali jasipa, lyabili lyakali safile, lyatatu lyakali ageti, lyaane lyakali emaludi. Lyasanu lyakali Onikisi,
20 the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprasus; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
lyamusanu alimwi lyakali koneliyeni, lyamusanu aabili lyakali kilayisolayiti, lyamusanu aane lyakali tofazi, alyekkumi lyakali kilayisofelusi, lyakkumi alimwi lyakali jasiniti, alyakkumi aabili lyakali ametiyisiti
21 And the twelve gates, twelve pearls; each one of the gates, respectively, was of one pearl; and the street of the city pure gold, as transparent glass.
Milyango ilikumi ayibili yakali ma piyeluzi aali kkumi aabili umwi awumwi mulyango wakabambidwe apiyeluzi yomwe. Migwagwa yedolopo yakali ngolida lwayo lwayo, mbuli bbalabal libalangala.
22 And I saw no temple in it; for the Lord God Almighty is its temple, and the Lamb.
Tendakabona chikombelo pe mudolopo, nkambo i Mwami Leza mupati kampatila a Mwana wa Mbelele mbabo chikombelo chedolopo.
23 And the city has no need of the sun nor of the moon, that they should shine for it; for the glory of God has enlightened it, and the lamp thereof [is] the Lamb.
Idolopo telyakali kuyanda kumunikwa aazuba kana mweezi pe nkambo busalali bwakali kumweka aalindilyo, alimwi itunga mulilo lyayo ngu Mwana waMbelele.
24 And the nations shall walk by its light; and the kings of the earth bring their glory to it.
Imanyika anoyoyenda amumuni wadolopo eelyo. Ibaami baansi bayoyeta bulemu bwabo muli ndilyo.
25 And its gates shall not be shut at all by day, for night shall not be there.
Milyango yalyo tayikoyojalwa pe chiindi chesikati, alimwi takukoyooba mansiku pe ooko.
26 And they shall bring the glory and the honour of the nations to it.
Bayoyeta ibulumbu abulemu bwamanyika muli ndilyo.
27 And nothing common, nor that maketh an abomination and a lie, shall at all enter into it; but those only who [are] written in the book of life of the Lamb.
Pesi takwe chisofweede pe chiyofwa chanjila muli ndilyo, nikuba umwi muntu uuchita chamasunko nakuti chakweneena, pesi aabo biyo bali amazina aalembedwe mubbuku lya Buumi lya Mamwana wa Mbelele.
