Revelation 12
1 A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
Zvino kwakaonekwa chiratidzo chikuru kudenga, mukadzi akapfeka zuva, nemwedzi uri pasi petsoka dzake, nepamusoro wake korona yenyeredzi gumi nembiri;
2 She was with child. She cried out in pain, laboring to give birth.
uye wakange ane pamuviri, akadanidzira achirwadziwa nemimba, uye achitambudzwa kupona.
3 Another sign was seen in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
Zvino kwakaonekwa chimwe chiratidzo kudenga, tarirawo, zibukanana ziguru zidzvuku, rine misoro minomwe nenyanga gumi, nepamisoro yaro korona nomwe.
4 His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
Zvino muswe waro wakakweva chetatu chenyeredzi dzekudenga, ndokudzikandira panyika; zibukanana ndokumira pamberi pemukadzi wakange oda kupona, kuti kana apona, agoparadza mwana wake.
5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God and to his throne.
Zvino wakapona mwana mukomana, wakange oda kufudza marudzi ese netsvimbo yedare; mwana wake ndokubvutirwa kuna Mwari nekuchigaro chake cheushe.
6 The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand two hundred sixty days.
Zvino mukadzi akatizira kurenje, kwaakange ane nzvimbo yakagadzirwa kubva kuna Mwari, kuti vamuriritira ipapo mazuva churu nemazana maviri nemakumi matanhatu.
7 There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the dragon. The dragon and his angels made war.
Zvino kukava nehondo kudenga; Mikaeri nevatumwa vake vakarwa nezibukanana, zibukanana ndokurwa rine vatumwa varo;
8 They didn’t prevail. No place was found for them any more in heaven.
asi havana kukunda, uye nzvimbo yaro haina kuzowanikwa zvekare kudenga.
9 The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
Zvino zibukanana ziguru rakakandwa, nyoka yekare, inonzi Dhiabhorosi uye Satani, anonyengera nyika yese; wakakandirwa panyika, nevatumwa vake vakakandwa pamwe naye.
10 I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ has come; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
Zvino ndakanzwa inzwi guru richiti kudenga: Ikozvino ruponeso rwasvika, nesimba, neushe hwaMwari wedu, neumambo hwaKristu wake; nokuti mupomeri wehama dzedu wakandirwa pasi, anovapomera pamberi paMwari wedu masikati neusiku.
11 They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They didn’t love their life, even to death.
Zvino ivo vakamukunda neropa reGwayana, uye neshoko reuchapupu hwavo, uye havana kuda upenyu hwavo kusvikira parufu.
12 Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time.”
Naizvozvi farai, matenga nemwi munogara maari. Mune nhamo vagari venyika negungwa, nokuti dhiabhorosi wakaburukira kwamuri ane kutsamwa kukuru, nokuti anoziva kuti ane nguva diki.
13 When the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
Zvino zibukanana rakati raona kuti rakandirwa panyika, rakashusha mukadzi wakapona murume.
14 Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
Zvino kumukadzi kwakapiwa mapapiro maviri egondo guru, kuti abhururukire kurenje kunzvimbo yake, kwaanonoriritirwa kwenguva nedzimwe nguva nehafu yenguva, abve pauso hwenyoka.
15 The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
Zvino nyoka yakabudisa mvura mumuromo mayo yakaita serwizi shure kwemukadzi kuti imukonzerese kukukurwa nerwizi.
16 The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon spewed out of his mouth.
Zvino nyika yakabatsira mukadzi, nyika ndokushamisa muromo wayo, ikamedza rwizi zibukanana rwarakabudisa mumuromo maro.
17 The dragon grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God’s commandments and hold Jesus’ testimony.
Zvino zibukanana rakatsamwira mukadzi, rikaenda kunoita hondo nevakasara vembeu yake, vanochengeta mirairo yaMwari, vane uchapupu hwaJesu Kristu.
