< Revelation 1 >

1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
Nyaa nga cha umukulilwe Yesu Kirisitu ambao Nnungu apelwe kualangya abandu bake makowew ambago lazima ga pa pilya karibuni. Apangite gatanganikwe kwabkumtuma malaika wake kwa mbanda wake Yohana.
2 Who bare record of the word (logos) of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
Yohana apiya ushuhuda wa kila kilibe cha kibweni usiana na likowe lya Nnungu ni kwa ushuhuda wa upiite husu Yesu Kirisitu.
3 Blessed is he that reads, and they that hear the words (logos) of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.
Abalikiwe ywembe ywa soma kwa lilobe na balu babayua maneno ga unabii gano na kugatii chakiandikilwe muno, kitumbu muda uti karibia.
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits (pneuma) which are before his throne;
Yohana kwa makanisa saba ga gabile Asia: neema ibe kwinu na amani buka kwa ywabile, ywapabaa, na ywapaicha na buka kwa Roho saba bababile nnongi ya kitigo chake cha enzi.
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the First-Born of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
Na buka kwa Yesu Kirisitu ambeye nga shahidi mwaminifu mmelkekwa wa kwanza ba bawile, na ntawala wa mfalme dunia yino, kwa ywembe ywatupendile na atubikite huru buka mmalau gitu kwa damu yake.
6 And has made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (aiōn g165)
Atupangite panga ufalme wa makuhani wa Nnungu na Tate bake kwake panga tukuka na ngupu milelebdaima. Amina. (aiōn g165)
7 Behold, he comes with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all families of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
Linga andaicha na maunde kila lio lipakumwona pamoja boti babamwomite. Na kabila yoti ya dunia bapakukulika kwake. Ndiyo, Amina.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, says the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Nenga nga Alfa na Omega abaya Ngwana Nnungu, ywembe ywabile na ywapabaa, na ambaye andaicha mwene ngupu.
9 I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word (logos) of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Nenga Yohana nuna winu na kati yinu ywa shiriki mateso na ufalme na uvumumilia thabiti wa ubile katika Yesu; nabile pa kisiwa cha kikemelwa Patimo kitumbu cha neno la Nnungu na ushuhuda usu Yesu.
10 I was in the Spirit (pneuma) on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,
Nabile katika Roho lichuba la Ngwana, nayuwine nchugu yangu lilobe la kunani kati ya tarumbeta,
11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What you see, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.
Yaibaya, uandike katika kitabu ga ugabona na ugatume kwa makanisa saba yenda Efeso, yenda Smima, yenda Pergamo, yenda Thiatira, yenda Sardi, yenda Philadelphia na yenda Laodikia.
12 And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks;
Nitigalambuka linga ni lilobe lya nyai ywabile kalongela na nee, na panigalambwike nabweni kinara cha dhahabu cha taa saba.
13 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the breast with a golden girdle.
Pakatikati ya kinara cha taa abile yumo kati mwana wa Adamu, aweti ngamu ndacho yaukite pai ya magulu gake, na mkanda wa dhahabu tindia pa kiuba.
14 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire;
Mtwe wakwe na nywili yake yai uu kati pamba kati barafu na minyo gake gabi mwali wa mwoto.
15 And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
Njayo yake yabi kati shaba yahikutilwe sana, kati shaba yaipitile katika mwoto, na lilobe lyake yabi kati machi maingi gaga yenda kwa haraka.
16 And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword: and his countenance was as the sun shines in his strength.
Abi akamwi ndondwa saba katika luboko lwake wa mmalyo, na buka mukano wake mwabi na lipanga likale wene makale kuno na kuno. Kuminyo yake kwende ng'araa kati mwenga nkalee walichuba.
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Pamweni, natitumbuka pamagulu gake kati mundu nywa wile. Abikite luboko lwake mmalyo panani yangu na baya “Kana uyogope” Ninga na wa kwanza na wa mwisho.
18 I am he that lives, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
Na ambaye nenda ishi. Nati waa, lakini linga nenda ishi bila waa! Na nibile na funguo ya mautiu na kuzimu. (aiōn g165, Hadēs g86)
19 Write the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;
Kwaiyo ugaaandike ga ugabweni nambiambi, na galo gagapita baadaye,
20 The mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which you saw are the seven churches.
kwa maana yaiyubite husu ndondwa saba yauibweni katika luboko lwangu lwa mmalyo, na chilo kinara kinara cha dhahabu cha taa saba: ndondwa saba nga malaika wa makanisa saba, na kinara cha taa saba nga galo makanisa saba.
