1Baada ya hayo nikawaona malaika wanne wamesimama katika pembe nne za dunia wakishika pepo nne za dunia ili upepo usivume hata kidogo: wala katika nchi, wala baharini, wala kwenye miti.
1⸀Μετὰ τοῦτο εἶδον τέσσαρας ἀγγέλους ἑστῶτας ἐπὶ τὰς τέσσαρας γωνίας τῆς γῆς, κρατοῦντας τοὺς τέσσαρας ἀνέμους τῆς γῆς, ἵνα μὴ πνέῃ ἄνεμος ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς μήτε ἐπὶ τῆς θαλάσσης μήτε ἐπὶ ⸀πᾶν δένδρον.
2Kisha nikamwona malaika mwingine akipanda juu kutoka mashariki akiwa na mhuri wa Mungu aliye hai. Akapaaza sauti na kuwaambia hao malaika wanne waliokabidhiwa jukumu la kuiharibu nchi na bahari,
2καὶ εἶδον ἄλλον ἄγγελον ἀναβαίνοντα ἀπὸ ἀνατολῆς ἡλίου, ἔχοντα σφραγῖδα θεοῦ ζῶντος, καὶ ἔκραξεν φωνῇ μεγάλῃ τοῖς τέσσαρσιν ἀγγέλοις οἷς ἐδόθη αὐτοῖς ἀδικῆσαι τὴν γῆν καὶ τὴν θάλασσαν,
3“Msiharibu nchi, wala bahari, wala miti, mpaka tutakapokwisha wapiga mhuri watumishi wa Mungu wetu katika paji la uso.”
3λέγων· Μὴ ἀδικήσητε τὴν γῆν μήτε τὴν θάλασσαν μήτε τὰ δένδρα, ⸀ἄχρι σφραγίσωμεν τοὺς δούλους τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν ἐπὶ τῶν μετώπων αὐτῶν.
4Kisha nikasikia idadi ya hao waliopigwa mhuri: Watu mia moja arobaini na nne elfu wa makabila yote ya watu wa Israeli.
4Καὶ ἤκουσα τὸν ἀριθμὸν τῶν ἐσφραγισμένων, ⸀ἑκατὸν τεσσεράκοντα τέσσαρες χιλιάδες, ⸀ἐσφραγισμένοι ἐκ πάσης φυλῆς υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ·
5Kabila la Yuda walikuwa watu kumi na mbili elfu; kabila la Reubeni, kumi na mbili elfu, kabila la Gadi, kumi na mbili elfu;
5ἐκ φυλῆς Ἰούδα δώδεκα χιλιάδες ⸀ἐσφραγισμένοι, ἐκ φυλῆς Ῥουβὴν δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Γὰδ δώδεκα χιλιάδες,
6Kabila la Asheri, kumi na mbili elfu; kabila la Naftali, kumi na mbili elfu; kabila la Manase, kumi na mbili elfu;
6ἐκ φυλῆς Ἀσὴρ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Νεφθαλὶμ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Μανασσῆ δώδεκα χιλιάδες,
7kabila la Simeoni, kumi na mbili elfu, kabila la Lawi, kumi na mbili elfu, kabila la Isakari, kumi na mbili elfu;
7ἐκ φυλῆς Συμεὼν δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Λευὶ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Ἰσσαχὰρ δώδεκα χιλιάδες,
8kabila la Zabuloni, kumi na mbili elfu; kabila la Yosefu, kumi na mbili elfu, na kabila la Benyamini, kumi na mbili elfu.
8ἐκ φυλῆς Ζαβουλὼν δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Ἰωσὴφ δώδεκα χιλιάδες, ἐκ φυλῆς Βενιαμὶν δώδεκα χιλιάδες ⸀ἐσφραγισμένοι.
9Kisha nikatazama, nikaona umati mkubwa wa watu wasiohesabika: watu wa kila taifa, ukoo, jamaa na lugha. Nao walikuwa wamesimama mbele ya kiti cha enzi na mbele ya Mwanakondoo, wakiwa wamevaa mavazi meupe na kushika matawi ya mitende mikononi mwao.
9Μετὰ ταῦτα εἶδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ ὄχλος πολύς, ὃν ἀριθμῆσαι ⸀αὐτὸν οὐδεὶς ἐδύνατο, ἐκ παντὸς ἔθνους καὶ φυλῶν καὶ λαῶν καὶ γλωσσῶν, ⸀ἑστῶτες ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου καὶ ἐνώπιον τοῦ ἀρνίου, περιβεβλημένους στολὰς λευκάς, καὶ ⸀φοίνικες ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν·
10Wakapaaza sauti: “Ukombozi wetu watoka kwa Mungu wetu aketiye juu ya kiti cha enzi, na kutoka kwa Mwanakondoo!”
10καὶ κράζουσι φωνῇ μεγάλῃ λέγοντες· Ἡ σωτηρία τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν τῷ καθημένῳ ἐπὶ τῷ θρόνῳ καὶ τῷ ἀρνίῳ.
11Malaika wote wakasimama kukizunguka kiti cha enzi, wazee na vile viumbe hai vinne. Wakaanguka kifudifudi mbele ya kiti cha enzi, wakamwabudu Mungu,
11καὶ πάντες οἱ ἄγγελοι εἱστήκεισαν κύκλῳ τοῦ θρόνου καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων καὶ τῶν τεσσάρων ζῴων, καὶ ἔπεσαν ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου ἐπὶ τὰ πρόσωπα αὐτῶν καὶ προσεκύνησαν τῷ θεῷ,
12wakisema, “Amina! Sifa, utukufu, hekima, shukrani, heshima, uwezo na nguvu viwe kwa Mungu wetu, milele na milele! Amina!”
12λέγοντες· Ἀμήν· ἡ εὐλογία καὶ ἡ δόξα καὶ ἡ σοφία καὶ ἡ εὐχαριστία καὶ ἡ τιμὴ καὶ ἡ δύναμις καὶ ἡ ἰσχὺς τῷ θεῷ ἡμῶν εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων· ἀμήν.
13Mmoja wa hao wazee akaniuliza, “Hawa waliovaa mavazi meupe ni watu gani? Na wametoka wapi?”
13Καὶ ἀπεκρίθη εἷς ἐκ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων λέγων μοι· Οὗτοι οἱ περιβεβλημένοι τὰς στολὰς τὰς λευκὰς τίνες εἰσὶν καὶ πόθεν ἦλθον;
14Nami nikamjibu, “Mheshimiwa, wewe wajua!” Naye akaniambia, “Hawa ni wale waliopita salama katika ule udhalimu mkuu. Waliyaosha mavazi yao katika damu ya Mwanakondoo, yakawa meupe kabisa.
14καὶ ⸀εἴρηκα αὐτῷ· Κύριέ μου, σὺ οἶδας. καὶ εἶπέν μοι· Οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ ἐρχόμενοι ἐκ τῆς θλίψεως τῆς μεγάλης, καὶ ἔπλυναν τὰς στολὰς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐλεύκαναν ⸀αὐτὰς ἐν τῷ αἵματι τοῦ ἀρνίου.
15Ndiyo maana wako mbele ya kiti cha enzi cha Mungu. Humtumikia Mungu mchana na usiku katika Hekalu lake; naye aketiye juu ya kiti cha enzi atatandaza hema lake juu yao kuwalinda.
15διὰ τοῦτό εἰσιν ἐνώπιον τοῦ θρόνου τοῦ θεοῦ, καὶ λατρεύουσιν αὐτῷ ἡμέρας καὶ νυκτὸς ἐν τῷ ναῷ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὁ καθήμενος ἐπὶ ⸂τοῦ θρόνου⸃ σκηνώσει ἐπʼ αὐτούς.
16Hawataona tena njaa wala kiu; jua wala joto kali halitawachoma tena,
16οὐ πεινάσουσιν ἔτι ⸀οὐδὲ διψήσουσιν ἔτι, οὐδὲ μὴ πέσῃ ἐπʼ αὐτοὺς ὁ ἥλιος οὐδὲ πᾶν καῦμα,
17kwa sababu Mwanakondoo aliye katikati ya kiti cha enzi atakuwa mchungaji wao, naye atawaongoza kwenye chemchemi za maji ya uzima. Naye Mungu atayafuta machozi yote machoni mwao.”
17ὅτι τὸ ἀρνίον τὸ ἀνὰ μέσον τοῦ θρόνου ⸀ποιμανεῖ αὐτούς, καὶ ⸀ὁδηγήσει αὐτοὺς ἐπὶ ζωῆς πηγὰς ὑδάτων· καὶ ἐξαλείψει ὁ θεὸς πᾶν δάκρυον ἐκ τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτῶν.
