Emoniseli 20
1 Bongo namonaki anjelu moko kokita wuta na Lola; asimbaki na loboko na ye fungola ya libulu ya monene mpe ya molili makasi mpe monyololo moko ya monene. (Abyssos g12)
I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. (Abyssos g12)
2 Akamataki dalagona, nyoka wana ya kala oyo azali zabolo to Satana; akangaki ye monyololo mpo na mibu nkoto moko.
He seized the dragon, the old serpent, who is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years,
3 Anjelu abwakaki ye kati na libulu wana ya monene mpe ya molili makasi; akangaki yango mpe abetaki kashe na likolo na yango mpo ete akosa lisusu bikolo te kino tango mibu nkoto moko ekokoka. Sima na yango, bakotika ye mpo na mwa tango moke. (Abyssos g12)
and cast him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time. (Abyssos g12)
4 Bongo namonaki bakiti ya bokonzi. Bato oyo bavandaki na bakiti yango bapesamelaki bokonzi ya kosambisa. Namonaki mpe milimo ya bato oyo bakataki bango mito mpo na litatoli na bango na tina na Yesu mpe na tina na Liloba na Nzambe, mpo ete bagumbamelaki te nyama mpe ekeko na yango mpe batiamaki te elembo na yango na bambunzu mpe na maboko na bango. Bazongaki na bomoi mpe bakonzaki elongo na Klisto mibu nkoto moko.
I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and such as didn’t worship the beast nor his image, and didn’t receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
5 Bato mosusu oyo bakufaki bazongaki na bomoi te liboso ete mibu nkoto moko esila. Yango nde lisekwa ya liboso.
The rest of the dead didn’t live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
6 Bato oyo bakosekwa na lisekwa ya liboso bazali bato ya esengo mpe basantu! Kufa ya mibale ezali na bokonzi te epai na bango, kasi bakozala Banganga-Nzambe ya Nzambe mpe ya Klisto, mpe bakokonza elongo na Ye mibu nkoto moko.
Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him one thousand years.
7 Tango mibu wana nkoto moko ekosila, bakobimisa Satana wuta na boloko na ye,
And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison
8 mpe akokende kokosa bikolo ya bangambo nyonso minei ya mokili mobimba, elingi koloba Gogi mpe Magogi. Akosangisa bango mpo na bitumba. Motango na bango ekozala lokola zelo ya ebale monene oyo bakoki kotanga te.
and he will come out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, whose number is as the sand of the sea.
9 Bapanzanaki na mokili mobimba, bazingelaki molako ya basantu mpe engumba oyo Nzambe alingaka. Kasi moto ekitaki longwa na likolo mpe ezikisaki bango.
They went up over the width of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. Fire came down out of heaven from God and devoured them.
11 Bongo namonaki Kiti monene ya Bokonzi, ya langi ya pembe elongo na Ye oyo avandaki na Kiti yango. Likolo mpe mabele ekimaki mosika na Ye mpe emonanaki lisusu te.
I saw a great white throne and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. There was found no place for them.
12 Namonaki lisusu bakufi, bato minene mpe bato pamba batelemi liboso ya Kiti ya Bokonzi. Babuku efungolamaki. Mpe buku mosusu efungolamaki, yango nde buku ya bomoi. Bongo bakufi basambisamaki kolanda misala na bango ndenge ekomama kati na babuku.
I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works.
13 Ebale monene esanzaki bakufi oyo bazalaki kati na yango; kufa elongo na mboka ya bakufi esanzaki mpe bakufi oyo bazalaki kati na yango. Mpe bato nyonso basambisamaki, moto na moto kolanda misala na ye. (Hadēs g86)
The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works. (Hadēs g86)
