1 Ishara mbaha jhabhonekene kumbinguni: N'dala jha afwekibhu ni lijobha, na ajhele ni muesi pasi pa magolo gha muene; ni taji jha matondo kumi ni mabhele jhajhele panani pa mutu ghwa muene.
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.
2 Ajhele ni luleme na aleleghe kwa ndabha jha maumivu gha kuhogola- mu uchungu bhwa kwifungula.
She was with child. She screamed out in pain, laboring to give birth.
3 Ni ishara jhenge jhabhonekene kumbinguni: Langayi! kwajhele ni liyoka lidung'u libhaha ambalo lyajhele ni mutu saba ni mang'eru kumi, na kwajhele ni taji saba mu mitu ghiake.
Another sign was seen in heaven. Look, a great fiery red serpent, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
4 N'kela ghuake ghwakokuili theluthi jhimonga jha matondo kumbinguni ni kusitagha pasi pa dunia. Lijhoka lyajhemili palongolo pa n'dala jhaakaribireghe kuhogola, ili kwamba wakati ihogola, abhwesiajhi kumila muana ghwa muene.
His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The serpent stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
5 An'hoguili muana, muana n'gosi, ambajhe ibeta kughatawala mataifa ghoha kwa ndonga jha chuma. Mwana munu anyakulibhu kunani kwa K'yara ni mu kiti kya enzi,
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with an iron scepter. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.
6 ni n'dala ajumbili munyika, mahali ambapo K'yara aandele lieneo kwa ndabha jha muene, ili abhwesiajhi kuhudumibhwa kwa magono 1, 260.
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.
7 Henu kwajhele ni vita kumbinguni. Mikaeli ni malaika bha muene bhakakomana ni lela lijhoka; Niliene lijhoka libhaha ni malaika bha muene bhakomene nabhu.
There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the serpent. The serpent and his angels made war.
8 Lakini lijhoka lyajhelepi ni nghofu sya kutosha kushinda. Henu jhajhelepi kabhele nafasi kumbinguni kwa ndabha jha muene ni malaika bha muene.
They did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any more in heaven.
9 Lijhoka libhaha - lela lijhoka lya muandi lyalikutibhweghe ibilisi au shetani ambajhe likofya - dunia jhioha ataghibhu pasi pa dunia ni malaika bha muene bhataghibhu pasi pamonga ni muene.
The great serpent was thrown down, the ancient 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.
10 Kisha napeliki sauti mbaha kuhoma kumbinguni: “Henu wokovu uhidili, nghofu - ni ufalme bhwa K'yara ghwitu, ni mamlaka jha Kristu ghwake kwa kujha mshitaki ghwa bhalongo bhitu bhataghibhu pasi- ambajhe abhatakili mbele sya K'yara ghwitu pamusi ni pakiru.
I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now is come the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
11 Bhan'shindili kwa damu jha mwanakondoo ni kwa lilobhi lya ushuhuda ghwa bhene, kwa ndabha bhalondeghe lepi sana maisha gha bhene, hata kufwa.
They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony. They did not love their life, even to death.
12 Kwa hiyo, muhobhokayi, muenga mbingu, na bhoha bhamwitama mugati mwake. Lakini ole bha nchi ni bahari kwa ndabha mwovu asilili kwa muenga. Amemili ni ligoga likali, kwa ndabha amanyili kujha ajhe ni muda udebe to.
Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the land and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time."
13 Wakati lijhoka limanyili kujha litaghibhu pasi pa nchi an'kesili n'dala ambajhe ahoguili muana n'gosi.
When the serpent saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
14 Lakini n'dala apelibhu mababatilu mabhele gha tai mbaha, ili abhwesiajhi kuruka hadi mu lieneo lya lyaandalibhu kwandabha jha muene k'ola ku jangwa lieneo ambalyo agalibhwesi kutunzibhwa kwa kwa wakati nyakati ni nusu wakati - mahali paabhwesilepi kupafikila lijhoka e'lu.
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, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 Lijhoka lyajhitisi masi kuhoma mu ndomo mwa muene kama kiholo ili akhetai gharika jha kun'gharikisha.
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.
16 Lakini ardhi jhan'tangatili n'dala. Jhafunuili kinywa kya muene ni kuumila kiholo kyalyafunyili lijhoka kuhoma mu kinywa kya muene.
The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the serpent spewed out of his mouth.
17 Kisha lijhoka likan'dadila n'dala ni muene akabhoka ni kukheta vita ni uzao bhwa muene bhuoha- bhala bhabhitii amri sya K'yara ni kukamulela ushuhuda kuhusu Yesu.
The serpent grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
