¹Zvino ndakaona mutumwa achiburuka kubva kudenga ane kiyi yegomba risina chigadziko, neketani huru muruoko rwake.

¹And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.

²Zvino akabata zibukanana, nyoka yakare, ndiye Dhiabhorosi naSatani, akamusunga makore churu,

²And he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,

³akamukandira mugomba risina chigadziko, akamupfigira, akaisa mucherechedzo pamusoro pake kuti arege kuzonyengerazve marudzi, kusvikira makore churu apera; shure kweizvozvo unofanira kusunungurwa chinguva chiduku.

³and cast him into the abyss, and shut [it], and sealed [it] over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be finished: after this he must be loosed for a little time.

⁴Zvino ndakaona zvigaro zveushe, vakagara pamusoro pazvo, kutonga ndokupiwa kwaari; ndikaona mweya yevakange vagurwa misoro nekuda kweuchapupu hwaJesu, nekweshoko raMwari, nevasina kunamata chikara kana mufananidzo wacho, kana kugamuchira mucherechedzo pahuma dzavo, nepamaoko avo; vakararama vakabata ushe pamwe naKristu makore churu.

⁴And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and [I saw] the souls of them that had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as worshipped not the beast, neither his image, and received not the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand; and they lived, and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

⁵Asi vakasara vevakafa havana kuraramazve kusvikira makore churu apera. Uku kumuka kwekutanga.

⁵The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand years should be finished. This is the first resurrection.

⁶Wakaropafadzwa uye mutsvene une mugove pakumuka kwekutanga, uye pana ivava rufu rwechipiri haruna simba; asi vachava vapristi vaMwari navaKristu, vachabata ushe pamwe naye makore churu.

⁶Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: over these the second death hath no power; but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

⁷Zvino kana makore churu apera, Satani uchasunungurwa mutirongo rake,

⁷And when the thousand years are finished, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

⁸zvino uchabuda kunonyengera marudzi ari kumativi mana enyika, ivo Gogi naMagogi, aavunganidzire kundorwa; uwandu hwakaita sejecha regungwa.

⁸and shall come forth to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

⁹Vakakwira pakufara kwenyika, vakakomba misasa yevatsvene neguta rinodikamwa; moto ndokuburuka uchibva kuna Mwari uchibuda kudenga ukavaroromesa.

⁹And they went up over the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down out of heaven, and devoured them.

¹⁰Zvino dhiabhorosi wakavanyengera akakandwa mudziva remoto nesarufa, pane chikara nemuporofita wenhema, uye vacharwadziwa masikati neusiku kusvikira rinhi narinhi.

¹⁰And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the beast and the false prophet; and they shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

¹¹Zvino ndakaona chigaro cheushe chikuru chichena, naiye wakange agere pamusoro pacho, iye nyika nedenga zvakatiza pachiso chake, zvikasawanirwa nzvimbo.

¹¹And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

¹²Uye ndakaona vakafa vaduku nevakuru, vamire pamberi paMwari, zvino mabhuku akazarurwa, nerimwe bhuku rikazarurwa, rinova reupenyu, vakafa vakatongwa nezvakange zvakanyorwa mumabhuku, zvichienderana nemabasa avo.

¹²And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne; and books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works.

¹³Gungwa rikabudisa vakafa vakange vari mariri; nerufu neguva zvikabudisa vakafa vakange vari mazviri; umwe neumwe akatongwa zvichienderana nemabasa avo.

¹³And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

¹⁴Zvino rufu negehena zvakakandirwa mudziva remoto; urwu rufu rwechipiri.

¹⁴And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, [even] the lake of fire.

¹⁵Zvino kana aripo asina kuwanikwa akanyorwa mubhuku reupenyu wakakandirwa mudziva remoto.

¹⁵And if any was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.
