< Okuswelulwa 13 >

1 Okumala lijoka nilimelegulu ingulu yo musango kunjejekela ya ku mwalo. Okumala nindola ityanyi nisoka mu nyanja. Yaliga ili na mayembe ekumi ne mitwe musanju. Mu mayembe gajo jaliga jilimo jitenga ekumi, na mumutwe gwaye galiga galimo na masango go kumufuma Nyamuanga.
And he stood upon the sand of the sea. And I saw a beast ascending from the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon its horns were ten diadems, and upon its heads were names of blasphemy.
2 Ityanyi inu nalolele ili lwa Indala. Amagulu gayo galiga gali uti Talago, no munwa gwalyo guli lwa Intale. Lijoka lilya nilimuyana amanaga, na ku chitebhe chaye echo bhutungi, no bhuyinga obhwa managa muno ago bhutungi.
And the beast that I saw was similar to a leopard, and its feet were like the feet of a bear, and its mouth was like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave his own power and great authority to it.
3 Ku imwi ya jityanyi ejo omutwe gwayo gwaliga nigubhonekana guli na liuta enene elyo lyakaletelee olufu lwalyo. Mbe nawe liuta lyaye niliulila, ne chalo chona nichilugusibhwa na nichiilubha intyanyi.
And I saw that one of its heads seemed to be slain unto death, but his deadly wound was healed. And the entire world was in wonder following the beast.
4 One nibhalilamya lijoka, kulwo kubha aiyanile obhutungi Intyanyi Ilya. One nibhalilamya Intyanyi, na nibhagendelela okwaika ati, “niga unu ali nka Intyanyi? “Na niga unu katula okulama nayo?”
And they worshiped the dragon, who gave authority to the beast. And they worshiped the beast, saying: “Who is like the beast? And who would be able to fight with it?”
5 Mbe Intyanyi niyanwa omunwa koleleki yaike emisango jo kwikuya ne bhifumi. Ekilisibhwe okubha no bhutungi kwa mesi makumi gana na gabhili.
And there was given to it a mouth, speaking great things and blasphemies. And authority was given to him to act for forty-two months.
6 Kwibhyo lityanyi elyo nilyasama omunwa gwalyo nilyaika ebhifumi ebhyo kumufuma Nyamuanga, nilifuma lisina lyaye, na nibhala linu aliga ekaye na bhaliya bhanu bhekaye Mulwile.
And he opened his mouth in blasphemies against God, to blaspheme his name and his tabernacle and those who dwell in heaven.
7 Lityanyi elyo nilikilisibhwa okukola lilemo na bhekilisha no kubhaiga. One, niliyanwa obhutungi ku bhuli luganda, bhuli bhanu, bhuli nyaika na bhuli Eyanga.
And it was given to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them. And authority was given to him over every tribe and people and language and nation.
8 Bhona bhanu bhekaye muchalo mbalililamya lyenene, bhuli umwi unu lisina lyaye lichaliga kwandikwa, kusokelela kumogwa kwe Chalo, mu chitabho cho bhuanga, chinu chili cho mwana wa Inama unu etilwe.
And all who inhabit the earth worshiped the beast, those whose names have not been written, from the origin of the world, in the Book of Life of the Lamb who was slain.
9 Omunu wone wone akabha ali no kutwi kwo kungwa, nongwe.
If anyone has an ear, let him hear.
10 Akabha oumwi wabho akenda okugwatwa no kugegwa, mbe kagwatwa no kusilwa. Akabha oumwi wabho aketa kwa lipanga, one ketibhwa kwa lipanga. Bhunu ni bhubhilikisi bhwo bhucholele no bhwigumilisha ne likilisha kwabho bhanu bhali bhalengelesi.
Whoever will be led into captivity, into captivity he goes. Whoever will kill with the sword, with the sword he must be killed. Here is the patient endurance and faith of the Saints.
11 Lindi nindola Intyanyi eindi niija okusoka mu Chalo. Yaliga ili na mayembe gabhili kuti Inyabhalega na niyaika kuti njoka.
And I saw another beast ascending from the land. And she had two horns like the Lamb, but she was speaking like the dragon.
12 Nelesha obhutungi bhona ku ntyanyi ilya eyo kwamba mu kubhao kwayo, no kukola mu chalo na bhalya bhanu bhaliga bhekaye nibhailamya Intyanyi ilya eyo kwamba, uliya unu liuta lyaye lyeuliye.
And she acted with all the authority of the first beast in his sight. And she caused the earth, and those dwelling in it, to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
13 Nakola ebhilugusho ebhya managa, kukingila nakola omulilo nigwika mu chalo okusoka Mulwile imbele ya bhanu,
And she accomplished great signs, even so that she would cause fire to descend from the sky to the earth in the sight of men.
14 na kwe chibhalikisho nekilisibhwa okukola, nabhajiga-jiga abho bhekaye mu Chalo, nabhabhwila okukonja ebhisusano kwe chibhalo Cha Intyanyi inu yaliga iutasibhwe kwa lipanga, mbe nawe achalamile.
And she seduced those living on the earth, by means of the signs that were given to her to perform in the sight of the beast, saying to those dwelling on the earth that they should make an image of the beast who had a wound of the sword and yet lived.
15 Ekilisibhwe okusosha omwika mu chisusano chilya echa Intyanyi koleleki echisusano chitule okwaika no kuletelela bhaliya bhona bhanu bhalemele okuilamya Intyanyi bhetwe.
And it was given to her to give a spirit to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast would speak. And she acted so that whoever would not worship the image of the beast would be slain.
16 One nasinyilisha bhuli umwi, unu atana chibhalo na managa, obhubhibhi no bhutaka, okusulumulwa no bhugaya, okulamila olunyamo mu kubhoko kwaye okwebhulyo amwi ku chisusu cho bhusu bhwaye.
And she will cause everyone, small and great, wealthy and poor, free and servant, to have a character on their right hand or on their foreheads,
17 Yaliga ili ati itakutulikana ku bhuli munu okugusha amwi kugula akabha atali owo lunyamo lwa Intyanyi, na bhunu ni bhwo obhukumi bhunu obhusilisha lisina lyaye.
so that no one may buy or sell, unless he has the character, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Chinu echenda obhumenyi. Akabha wone wone ali no bhusombokeywe, musige atule okubhala obhukumi bhwa Intyanyi. kulwo kubha ni bhukumi bhwe chinya-munu. No bhukumi bhwajo ni 666 (magana mukaga na makumi mukaga na mukaga.)
Here is wisdom. Whoever has intelligence, let him determine the number of the beast. For it is the number of a man, and his number is six hundred and sixty-six.
