Ufunuo 22
Biblia Takatifu (Swahili): New Testament portions
Berean Standard Bible
1Kisha malaika akanionyesha mto wa maji ya uzima maangavu kama kioo yakitoka kwenye kiti cha enzi cha Mungu na Mwanakondoo.
1Then the angel showed me a river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb
2Mto huo ulitiririka kupitia katikati ya barabara kuu ya mji. Kandokando ya mto huo kulikuwa na mti wa uzima unaozaa matunda mara kumi na mbili kwa mwaka, yaani kila mwezi; na majani yake ni dawa ya kuwaponya watu wa mataifa.
2down the middle of the main street of the city. On either side of the river stood a tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit and yielding a fresh crop for each month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.
3Hapana kitu chochote kilicholaaniwa kitakachokuwa katika mji huo. Kiti cha enzi cha Mungu na cha Mwanakondoo kitakuwa katika mji huo, na watumishi wake watamwabudu.
3No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be within the city, and His servants will worship Him.
4Watauona uso wake, na jina lake litaandikwa juu ya paji za nyuso zao.
4They will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads.
5Usiku hautakuwako tena, wala hawatahitaji mwanga wa taa au wa jua, maana Bwana Mungu atawaangazia, nao watatawala milele na milele.
5There will be no more night in the city, and they will have no need for the light of a lamp or of the sun. For the Lord God will shine on them, and they will reign forever and ever.
6Kisha malaika akaniambia, “Maneno haya ni ya kweli na ya kuaminika. Bwana Mungu ambaye huwapa manabii Roho wake, alimtuma malaika wake awaonyeshe watumishi wake mambo ambayo lazima yatukie punde.
6Then the angel said to me, “These words are faithful and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent His angel to show His servants what must soon take place.”
7“Sikiliza! Naja upesi. Heri yake anayeyazingatia maneno ya unabii yaliyo katika kitabu hiki.”
7“Behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of prophecy in this book.”
8Mimi Yohane, niliyaona na kusikia mambo haya. Nilipokwisha sikia na kuona nikajitupa chini mbele ya miguu ya huyo malaika aliyenionyesha mambo hayo, nikataka kumwabudu.
8And I am John, who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had shown me these things.
9Lakini yeye akaniambia, “Acha! Mimi ni mtumishi tu kama wewe na ndugu zako manabii na wote wanaoyatii maagizo yaliyomo katika kitabu hiki. Mwabudu Mungu!”
9But he said to me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!”
10Tena akaniambia, “Usiyafiche kama siri maneno ya unabii yaliyomo katika kitabu hiki, maana wakati wa kutimizwa kwake umekaribia.
10Then he told me, “Do not seal up the words of prophecy in this book, because the time is near.
11Kwa sasa anayetenda mabaya na aendelee kutenda mabaya, na aliye mchafu aendelee kuwa mchafu. Mwenye kutenda mema na azidi kutenda mema, na aliye mtakatifu na azidi kuwa mtakatifu.”
11Let the unrighteous continue to be unrighteous, and the vile continue to be vile; let the righteous continue to practice righteousness, and the holy continue to be holy.”
12“Sikiliza!” Asema Yesu, “Naja upesi, pamoja na tuzo nitakalompa kila mmoja kufuatana na matendo yake.
12“Behold, I am coming soon, and My reward is with Me, to give to each one according to what he has done.
13Mimi ni Alfa na Omega, Mwanzo na Mwisho, wa kwanza na wa mwisho.”
13I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.”
14Heri yao wale wanaoosha mavazi yao, kwani watakuwa na haki ya kula tunda la mti wa uzima, na haki ya kuingia mjini kwa kupitia milango yake.
14Blessed are those who wash their robes, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter the city by its gates.
15Lakini mbwa, wachawi, wazinzi, wauaji, waabudu sanamu na wote wanaopenda kusema uongo, watakaa nje ya mji.
15But outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
16“Mimi, Yesu, nimemtuma malaika wangu awathibitishieni mambo haya katika makanisa. Mimi ni mzawa wa ukoo wa Daudi. Mimi ni nyota angavu ya asubuhi!”
16“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the bright Morning Star.”
17Roho na Bibiarusi waseme, “Njoo!” Kila mtu asikiaye hili, na aseme, “Njoo!” Kisha, yeyote aliye na kiu na aje; anayetaka maji ya uzima na apokee bila malipo yoyote.
17The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” Let the one who hears say, “Come!” And let the one who is thirsty come, and the one who desires the water of life drink freely.
18Mimi Yohane nawapa onyo wote wanaosikia maneno ya unabii yaliyomo katika kitabu hiki: mtu yeyote akiongeza chochote katika mambo haya, Mungu atamwongezea mabaa yaliyoandikwa katika kitabu hiki.
18I testify to everyone who hears the words of prophecy in this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book.
19Na mtu yeyote akipunguza chochote katika maneno ya unabii yaliyomo katika kitabu hiki, Mungu atamnyang'anya sehemu yake katika ule mti wa uzima, na sehemu yake katika mji mtakatifu, ambavyo vimeelezwa katika kitabu hiki.
19And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and the holy city, which are described in this book.
20Naye anayetoa ushahidi wake juu ya mambo haya asema: “Naam! Naja upesi.” Amina. Na iwe hivyo! Njoo Bwana Yesu!
20He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
21Nawatakieni nyote neema ya Bwana Yesu. Amen.
21The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all the saints. Amen.
