< Revelation 18 >

1 After these things, I saw another angel coming down out of the sky, having great authority. The earth was illuminated with his glory.
Ye fikilile fyoni ifi nikabwene umunyamola ujunge ikwika paasi kuhuma kukyanya. Umwene alyale nuvutavulilua uvuvaha, na ji iisi jikamulikue nhu vwimike vwaa mwene.
2 He cried with a mighty voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great, and she has become a habitation of demons, a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hated bird!
Alyalilile nilisio ilivaha, akajova, “Ghughwile, ghughwile, ilikaja ilivaha ilya Babeli! Ulivukale vwa Mipepo, kange panosikukala imhepo indamafu soni, kange napano vikukala avanyali voni nikijuni kino kikalasia.
3 For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her sexual immorality, the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from the abundance of her luxury.”
Ulwakuva ifisina fyooni finywile uluhuje nhuvunoghelua vwea vuvwafu vwamweene vuno vukum'pelelela ing'alasi. Avatua va mu iisi va vwafuike naghwoope. Navanyaduka vooni vooni va mu iisi vakavile uvuvwafu ku ngufu sa mikalile gha mwene gha vunoghelua.”
4 I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “Come out of her, my people, that you have no participation in her sins, and that you don’t receive of her plagues,
Kange nikapulika ilisio ilinge kuhuma kukyanya liiti, “Vukagha kwa mwene mwe vaanhu vango, ulwakuuti mulihasing'ana mumakole gha mwene, ulwakuuti muleke pikuvupila imumuko sa mwene sooni.
5 for her sins have reached to the sky, and God has remembered her iniquities.
Inyali sa mwene simemeleng'ine kukyanya heene vulanga, naju Nguluve asikumbwike imbombo sa mwene imbivi.
6 Return to her just as she returned, and repay her double as she did, and according to her works. In the cup which she mixed, mix to her double.
Mumombaghe ndavule akavahombile avange, kange muhombaghe mugomokaghe kaviili ndavule akavombile; mukikombe kino akahasing'inie, mumanikiiaghe kaviili ulwa mweene.
7 However much she glorified herself and grew wanton, so much give her of torment and mourning. For she says in her heart, ‘I sit a queen, and am no widow, and will in no way see mourning.’
Ndavule akighinisie jujuo mwene, kange akikalile nulunomo, mum'pelaghe imumuko nyinga na kusukunala. Ulwakuva ijova mu mwoojo ghwa mwene, nikalile hwene minja Ntua; kange nanilimfwile, nambe na kwande nikukwagha kulila.'
8 Therefore in one day her plagues will come: death, mourning, and famine; and she will be utterly burned with fire, for the Lord God who has judged her is strong.
Pa uluobmu n'kate mukighono kimo imumuko sa mwene sikumulemagha: Vufue, ikililo, nhi njala, itangukagha nu mwooto, ulwakuva u Mutwa u Nguluve ghwe nyangufu, kange ghwe mighi ghwa mwene.”
9 The kings of the earth who committed sexual immorality and lived wantonly with her will weep and wail over her, when they look at the smoke of her burning,
Avatua va iisi vano vakavwafwike na kuhasiling'ana palikimo nu mwene viliilagha na pikung'ulasia pano kwande vikulivona ilyosi ilyakupia umweene.
10 standing far away for the fear of her torment, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For your judgment has come in one hour.’
Vikwima patali numwene, ku vwoghofi vwa vuvafi vwa mwene vitisagha, “Iiga, iiga kulikaja ilivaha, Babeli, ilikaja ilinyangufu! Ku kivalilo kimo uluhighilo lwako lwisile.”
11 The merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise any more:
Vanyaduka va iisi mulilaghe na pikung'ulasia vwimila u mwene, ulwakuva nakwale nambe jumo juno ighula ifinu fya mwene kange -
12 merchandise of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, scarlet, all expensive wood, every vessel of ivory, every vessel made of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble;
ifiinu ifya sahabu, indalama, amavue agha lutogo, lulu, ugolole um'balafu, izambalau, umwene nda ghuno ghutetema, ndangali, amapiki ghoni ghono ghinukila vunofu, ifivombelo fyoni ifya mapembe gha jungua, ifyombo fyoni fino fitendilue namapiki gha lutogo, shahaba, kyuma, ilivue,
13 and cinnamon, incense, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, fine flour, wheat, cattle, sheep, horses, chariots, and people’s bodies and souls.
Mdalasini, ifilungo, vufumba, manemane, vubani, uluhuje, amafuta, uvutine uvunono, ingano, ing'ombe ni ng'olo, ifarasi ni gale, na vakami, ni numbula sa vaanhu.
14 The fruits which your soul lusted after have been lost to you. All things that were dainty and sumptuous have perished from you, and you will find them no more at all.
Imeke sino ukasinoghilue ni ngufu saako sivukile kuhuma kulyuve. Uvunoghelua vwaako vwooni nhu vunonofivikile, nafilavoneka kange.
15 The merchants of these things, who were made rich by her, will stand far away for the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning,
Vano vighusia ifiinu ifi vano vakavile uvumofu muvughane vwamwene vikwimagha kuvutali kuhuma kwa mwene vwimila vwa vwoghofi vwa mumuko saa mwene, vilila nilisio lya kung'ulasia.
16 saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, she who was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls!
Viiti, “Iga, iga kulikaja ilivaha ghwe juno ifwikilue ugolole unono, sambalau, ni ndangali, na kunosevua ni sahabu, ni finu ifya lutogo ni lulu!”
17 For in an hour such great riches are made desolate.’ Every ship master, and everyone who sails anywhere, and mariners, and as many as gain their living by sea, stood far away,
Mun'kate mu sala jimo uvumofu vwooni uvuo vukikalile. Avaghendesia meli vooni, kange avoghelelelaji va mubahari na vooni vano vivomba imbombo mu nyanja, valyimile patali.
18 and cried out as they looked at the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘What is like the great city?’
Valyalilile ye vikulivona ilyosi ilyakupia umwene. Vakaati, “Likaja liliku lino liwanana nilikaja iili ilivaha?”
19 They cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had their ships in the sea were made rich by reason of her great wealth!’ For she is made desolate in one hour.
Vakitaghile iling'undi pa matu gha vanave, pe vakalila, vakahumagha amahosi na pikung'ulisia, “Iiga, iiga ghwelikaja ilivaha mwonimwoni vano valyale ni meli saave mu nyanja valyale vamofu vwimila vwa kyuma kya mwene. Mun'kate mu sala jimo vitipulue.”
20 “Rejoice over her, O heaven, you saints, apostles, and prophets, for God has judged your judgment on her.”
“Mukelaghe khu lwa mwene, vulanga, umwue vitiki, mweva sun'gua navavili, ulwakuva u Nguluve aletile uluhighilo lwa mwene pa ulu!”
21 A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all.
Umunyamola unyangufu alyanyanywile ilivue hweene livuhe ilivaha ilya kuhavulila kange akatagha mu nyanja, akaatisagha, “Kusila iiji, Babeli, ilikaja ilivaha liila, ghutaghua pasi kuvu lefi nulavoneka kange.
22 The voice of harpists, minstrels, flute players, and trumpeters will be heard no more at all in you. No craftsman of whatever craft will be found any more at all in you. The sound of a mill will be heard no more at all in you.
Amasio gha finanda, avanyanyimbo, avaseja pilimbi, nulu kelema navalapulika kange kulyumue. Nambe avamang'ani vooni navalavoneka kulyumue. Nambe ilitavua lya lituule nalilapulikika kange kulyumue.
23 The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you, for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived.
Ulumuli lwa tala nalulamulika mulyuve. Ilisio lya nyavutolani umughosi nu nyavutolani umu mama nalilapulikika kange mulyuve, ulwakuuva avaghusia fiinu vako valyale vavaha va mu iisi, kange vafisikina, vasyangilue nuvuhavi vwako.
24 In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth.”
Mun'kate mwa mwene idanda ja vaviili na vitiki jilya vonike, ni danda ja vooni vano valya m'budilue mu iisi.”
