¹Zvino shure kwezvinhu izvi ndakanzwa inzwi guru revanhu vazhinji-zhinji kudenga, richiti: Hareruya! Ruponeso nekubwinya, nerukudzo nesimba kuna Ishe Mwari wedu;

¹And after these things I heard a great voice of a great multitude in the heaven, saying, `Alleluia! the salvation, and the glory, and the honour, and the power, [is] to the Lord our God;

²Nekuti mitongo yake ndeyechokwadi yakarurama; nekuti wakatonga mhombwe huru yakaodza nyika neupombwe hwayo, akatsiva ropa revaranda vake paruoko rwayo.

²because true and righteous [are] His judgments, because He did judge the great whore who did corrupt the earth in her whoredom, and He did avenge the blood of His servants at her hand;`

³Ndokuti rwechipiri: Hareruya! Neutsi hwaro hwunokwira kusvikira rinhi narinhi.

³and a second time they said, `Alleluia;` and her smoke doth come up — to the ages of the ages!

⁴Zvino Vakuru makumi maviri nevana vakawira pasi nezvisikwa zvipenyu zvina vakanamata Mwari wakange agere pachigaro cheushe vachiti: Ameni, Hareruya!

⁴And fall down did the elders — the twenty and four — and the four living creatures, and they did bow before God who is sitting upon the throne, saying, `Amen, Alleluia.`

⁵Inzwi ndokubuda pachigaro cheushe, richiti: Rumbidzai Mwari wedu, imwi mose varanda vake, nemwi munomutya, zvose vaduku nevakuru.

⁵And a voice out of the throne did come forth, saying, `Praise our God, all ye His servants, and those fearing Him, both the small and the great;`

⁶Zvino ndakanzwa senzwi rechaunga chikuru, uye senzwi remvura zhinji, uye senzwi rekutinhira kukuru richiti: Hareruya! Nekuti Ishe Mwari Wemasimbaose unotonga.

⁶and I heard as the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, `Alleluia! because reign did the Lord God — the Almighty!

⁷Ngatifare, tipembere, tipe rukudzo kwaari; nekuti muchato weGwayana wasvika, mukadzi waro wazvigadzira.

⁷may we rejoice and exult, and give the glory to Him, because come did the marriage of the Lamb, and his wife did make herself ready;

⁸Kwaari kwakapiwa kuti apfeke rineni yakapfava, inopenya, yakachena; nekuti rineni yakapfava ndiyo kururama kwevatsvene.

⁸and there was given to her that she may be arrayed with fine linen, pure and shining, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.`

⁹Zvino akati kwandiri: Nyora, uti: Vakaropfadzwa vakakokerwa kuchirayiro chemuchato weGwayana. Akati kwandiri: Awa mashoko aMwari echokwadi.

⁹And he saith to me, `Write: Happy [are] they who to the supper of the marriage of the Lamb have been called;` and he saith to me, `These [are] the true words of God;`

¹⁰Zvino ndakawira patsoka dzake kuti ndimunamate; akati kwandiri: Chenjera usadaro; ndiri muranda pamwe newe nehama dzako dzine uchapupu hwaJesu; namata Mwari, nekuti uchapupu hwaJesu mweya wechiporofita.

¹⁰and I fell before his feet, to bow before him, and he saith to me, `See — not! fellow servant of thee am I, and of thy brethren, those having the testimony of Jesus; bow before God, for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of the prophecy.`

¹¹Zvino ndakaona denga rakazarurwa, zvino tarira, bhiza jena, naiye wakange agere pamusoro paro unonzi Wakatendeka neWechokwadi, uye pakururama unotonga nekuita hondo.

¹¹And I saw the heaven having been opened, and lo, a white horse, and he who is sitting upon it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness doth he judge and war,

¹²Meso ake akaita semurazvo wemoto; nemusoro une korona zhinji, uye wakange ane zita rakanyorwa, risina kuzikamwa nemunhu, asi naiye amene.

¹²and his eyes [are] as a flame of fire, and upon his head [are] many diadems — having a name written that no one hath known, except himself,

¹³Zvino wkapfeka nguvo yakanyikwa muropa; uye zita rake rinonzi Shoko raMwari.

¹³and he is arrayed with a garment covered with blood, and his name is called, The Word of God.

¹⁴Uye hondo dzaiva kudenga dzakamutevera dzakatasva mabhizha machena, dzakapfeka rineni yakapfava chena isina tsvina.

¹⁴And the armies in the heaven were following him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen — white and pure;

¹⁵Mumuromo make makabva mabuda munondo unopinza, kuti nawo arove marudzi; uye uchaatonga netsvimbo yedare; unotsika chisviniro chewaini chehasha dzekutsamwa kwaMwari Wemasimbaose.

¹⁵and out of his mouth doth proceed a sharp sword, that with it he may smite the nations, and he shall rule them with a rod of iron, and he doth tread the press of the wine of the wrath and the anger of God the Almighty,

¹⁶Uye panguvo yake nepachidzva chake pakange pane zita rinoti: MAMBO WAMADZIMAMBO naIshe WAMADZISHE.

¹⁶and he hath upon the garment and upon his thigh the name written, `King of kings, and Lord of lords.`

¹⁷Zvino ndakaona mutumwa amire muzuva; akadanidzira nenzwi guru, achiti kushiri dzose dzinobhururuka pakati pedenga: Uyai, muungane pamwe pachirayiro chaMwari mukuru.

¹⁷And I saw one messenger standing in the sun, and he cried, a great voice, saying to all the birds that are flying in mid-heaven, `Come and be gathered together to the supper of the great God,

¹⁸kuti mudye nyama yemadzimambo, nenyama yevakuru vezvuru zvemazana, nenyama yevanhu vane simba, nenyama yemabhiza, neyavatasvi vawo, nenyama yose, zvose vakasununguka nevakasungwa, zvose vaduku nevakuru.

¹⁸that ye may eat flesh of kings, and flesh of chiefs of thousands, and flesh of strong men, and flesh of horses, and of those sitting on them, and the flesh of all — freemen and servants — both small and great.`

¹⁹Zvino ndakaona chikara chiya nemadzimambo enyika nehondo dzavo, vakaungana pamwe kuti vaite hondo naiye wakange akatasva bhiza uye kumirisana nehondo yake.

¹⁹And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, having been gathered together to make war with him who is sitting upon the horse, and with his army;

²⁰Zvino chikara chakabatwa, uye pamwe naye nemuporofita wenhema wakaita zvishamiso pamberi pacho, zvaakanyengera nazvo vaya vakagamuchira mucherechedzo wechikara, nevakanamata mufananidzo wacho. Ava vose vakakandirwa vari vapenyu mugomba remoto unopfuta nesarufa.

²⁰and the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who did the signs before him, in which he led astray those who did receive the mark of the beast, and those who did bow before his image; living they were cast — the two — to the lake of the fire, that is burning with brimstone;

²¹Uye vakasara vakashinjwa nemunondo waiye wakange akatasva bhizha, wakabuda mumuromo make; neshiri dzose dzikagutiswa nenyama yavo.

²¹and the rest were killed with the sword of him who is sitting on the horse, which [sword] is proceeding out of his mouth, and all the birds were filled out of their flesh.
