Ipinga chiweghe ne imnyama mkali
1 Kuya katsa malaika yumwe kulawa mna wamalaika wala saba wane tsibakuli saba, kanongela, “Utse nikulanguse, pfayatsohighighwa pinga yula chiweghe mkulu iyokala hambalimbali mwe ghamatsi mengi.
2 Wandewa iwali muisi tsawawasa naye, na iwanu iwokala muisi tsawapatika mbwali ya ughoni wake.”
3 Kuya Ghumuhe we Imulungu kanikinda, malaika kanongotsa mbaka kunyika. Hako nimwona ipinga iyakalile mchanya mwe imnyama mkali mdung'u, iyenele mataghwa gha ukumligha Imulungu, naye tsakana matwi saba na membe kumi.
4 Na pinga ayo tsakapfala maghwanda gha langi ya tsambalau na madung'u, tsakewamba kwa nzahabu na madini ighong'ala na tsilulu. Naye kakinda chikombe cha nzahabu mmoko mwake, ichimemile ghehile na ughoni wake.
5 Tsakandikighwa taghwa lya chipfiso mchihanga mwake, “Babeli mkulu, mai wa pfiweghe na pfinu pfihile ipfili muisi.”
6 Nimwona ipinga yula kapatika kwa idamu ye iwanu we Imulungu na idamu ye iwanu iwopeta imbuli ya Yesu.
Hanimwonile tsanikangawala ghendo.
7 Kuya malaika ayo kanighutsa, “Ule ukangawala? Nitsokulongela imbuli iipfisike ye ipinga yuno ne imnyama mkali iyomduta yane matwi saba na membe kumi.
8 Imnyama yula mkali yumonile, tsakakala mghima, lekeni sambi si mghima keli bae, ila kahabehi kutsa kulawa kune lipondo lilihela utsighilo, naye katsokomighwa. Na wanu iwokala muisi, awala mataghwa ghawo ng'ana ghandikighwe bae mne chitabu cha ughima kulawa isi hailumbighwe watsokangawala hawatsomwona imnyama ayo mkali, kwaapfila ghumwande tsakamghima, sambi si mghima bae, lekeni katsolawila keli.
9 “Hano hobamighwa mbutsi tsikengele! Agho matwi saba ipfo pfidunda saba pfayokala pinga ayo. Pfipfila matwi agho iwo wandewa saba.
10 Wandewa watano ma wakomighwa, yumwe yang'ali yotawala na yungi yang'ali kutsa, lekeni hayakutsa katsobamighwa yatawale chidogho.
11 Imnyama yula mkali iyakalile baho, na sambi ng'ali baha, ayo ka mndewa wa nane, yeye ka yumwe we awala saba, naye katsohinyighwa ghendo.
12 “Atsila membe kumi tsawonile iwo iwandewa kumi, nawo ng'ana watawale bae. Lekeni watsobokela ukulu wa kutawala chidogho hamwe ne imnyama yula mkali.
13 Wose wano tsawalangula chinu chimwe, nawo watsomwing'a imnyama yula mkali ingupfu na undewa wawo wose.
14 Watsetowa ne Mwanang'olo, lekeni Mwanang'olo hamwe na awala iyawakemile na iyawasaghule, awala iwotogholighwa, katsowahuma kwaapfila yeye ka Imtwatsa we iwatwatsa na Mndewa we iwandewa.”
15 Kuya malaika kanongela, “Ghamatsi ghala ghawonile hala hayokala pinga yula chiweghe, iyo mitingano ye iwanu we tsiisi tsose, kolo tsose na lugha tsose.
16 Imnyama mkali na membe tsila kumi tsawonile, tsitsomuhila chiweghe ayo. Tsitsomboka chila chinu chayali nacho na kumleka chidako, tsitsomja lukuli lwake na kumlakatsa kwa ghumoto.
17 Kwaapfila Imulungu keka mmoyo mwawo aghala ghayobama yeye waghatende, kwa ukwitogholela wawo kwa wawo kumwing'a imnyama ayo ingupfu yawo yo ukutawala, mbaka ghala ghayolongile Imulungu ghatimile.
18 “Ipinga yumwonile iyo ghumji mkulu ighuwatawala iwandewa wose iwali muisi.”
