< Revelation 4 >

1 After these things I saw, and lo, a door opened in the heaven, and the first voice that I heard [is] as of a trumpet speaking with me, saying, 'Come up hither, and I will shew thee what it behoveth to come to pass after these things;'
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio ngĩrora, na rĩrĩ, hau mbere yakwa haarĩ na mũrango warĩ mũhingũre kũu igũrũ. Naguo mũgambo ũrĩa ndaiguĩte mbere ĩyo ũkĩnjarĩria, ũrĩa wagambaga ta coro, ũkiuga atĩrĩ, “Ambata, ũũke haha, na nĩngũkuonia maũndũ marĩa arĩ o nginya mageekĩka thuutha wa maũndũ maya.”
2 and immediately I was in the Spirit, and lo, a throne was set in the heaven, and upon the throne is [one] sitting,
O rĩmwe ngĩkorwo ndĩ thĩinĩ wa Roho, na rĩrĩ, hau mbere yakwa harĩ na gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene kũu igũrũ, na nĩ harĩ na mũndũ wagĩikarĩire.
3 and He who is sitting was in sight like a stone, jasper and sardine: and a rainbow was round the throne in sight like an emerald.
Nake ũcio wagĩikarĩire onekaga atariĩ ta ihiga rĩa mũthemba wa njathibi na wakiki. Naguo mũkũnga-mbura ũrĩa wonekaga ũhaana ta kahiga karĩa getagwo thumarati, nĩguo warigiicĩirie gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene.
4 And around the throne [are] thrones twenty and four, and upon the thrones I saw the twenty and four elders sitting, clothed in white garments, and they had upon their heads crowns of gold;
Nakĩo gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene nĩkĩarigiicĩirio nĩ itĩ ingĩ cia ũnene mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na inya, nacio ciaikarĩirwo nĩ athuuri mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ana. Athuuri acio meehumbĩte nguo njerũ na magekĩra thũmbĩ cia thahabu mĩtwe.
5 and out of the throne proceed do lightnings, and thunders, and voices; and seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the Seven Spirits of God,
Hau gĩtĩ-inĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene nĩhoimaga heni, na ngwa, na marurumĩ. Mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene haarĩ matawa mũgwanja maakanaga. Matawa macio nĩmo maroho marĩa mũgwanja ma Ngai.
6 and before the throne [is] a sea of glass like to crystal, and in the midst of the throne, and round the throne, [are] four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind;
Ningĩ hau mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene nĩ haarĩ kĩndũ kĩahaanaga ta iria rĩa gĩcicio, narĩo rĩarĩ ikembu mũno, rĩkahaana o ta gĩcicio. Ningĩ hau gatagatĩ, gũthiũrũrũkĩria gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene, haarĩ na ciũmbe inya irĩ muoyo, nacio ciaiyũrĩtwo nĩ maitho mwena wa mbere, na wa na thuutha.
7 and the first living creature [is] like a lion, and the second living creature [is] like a calf, and the third living creature hath the face as a man, and the fourth living creature [is] like an eagle flying.
Nakĩo kĩũmbe kĩa mbere kĩahaanaga ta mũrũũthi, na gĩa keerĩ kĩahaanaga ta ndegwa, na gĩa gatatũ kĩarĩ na ũthiũ watariĩ ta wa mũndũ, nakĩo gĩa kana gĩatariĩ ta nderi ĩkĩrera.
8 And the four living creatures, each by itself severally, had six wings, around and within [are] full of eyes, and rest they have not day and night, saying, 'Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, who was, and who is, and who is coming;'
O kĩũmbe kĩmwe gĩa ciũmbe icio inya irĩ muoyo kĩarĩ na mathagu matandatũ, nakĩo kĩaiyũrĩtwo nĩ maitho mwĩrĩ wothe o nginya rungu rwa mathagu ma kĩo. Mũthenya na ũtukũ itiatigithagĩria kuuga atĩrĩ:
9 and when the living creatures do give glory, and honour, and thanks, to Him who is sitting upon the throne, who is living to the ages of the ages, (aiōn g165)
Rĩrĩa rĩothe ciũmbe icio irĩ muoyo ikũgooca, na igekĩrĩra, na igacookeria ngaatho ũcio ũikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, o ũcio ũtũũraga tene na tene-rĩ, (aiōn g165)
10 fall down do the twenty and four elders before Him who is sitting upon the throne, and bow before Him who is living to the ages of the ages, and they cast their crowns before the throne, saying, (aiōn g165)
nao athuuri acio mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ na ana megũithagia thĩ mbere ya ũcio ũikarĩire gĩtĩ kĩa ũnene, na makahooya ũcio ũtũũraga muoyo tene na tene. Maigaga thũmbĩ ciao mbere ya gĩtĩ kĩu kĩa ũnene, makoiga atĩrĩ: (aiōn g165)
11 'Worthy art Thou, O Lord, to receive the glory, and the honour, and the power, because Thou — Thou didst create the all things, and because of Thy will are they, and they were created.'
“Wee Mwathani na Ngai witũ-rĩ, nĩwagĩrĩire kũgoocagwo, na gũtĩĩo, na kũgĩa na ũhoti, nĩgũkorwo nĩwe wombire indo ciothe, nacio ciombirwo na ũndũ wa kwenda gwaku, na ikĩgĩa na muoyo.”
