¹Wakati azarura chisimbiso chichinomwe, kunyarara kukavapo kudenga kunenge sehafu yeora.

¹And when it opened the seventh seal, there was silence in the heaven about half an hour.

²Ipapo ndakaona vatumwa vanomwe vamire pamberi paMwari; kukapiwa kwaari hwamanda nomwe.

²And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and seven trumpets were given to them.

³Zvino mumwe mutumwa wakauya, akamira paaritari, ane mudziyo wezvinonhuhwira wendarama; kukapiwa kwaari zvinonhuhwira zvizhinji kuti azvipe pamwe neminyengetero yavatsvene vose pamusoro pearitari yendarama, yakange iri pamberi pechigaro cheushe.

³And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and much incense was given to him, that he might give [efficacy] to the prayers of all saints at the golden altar which [was] before the throne.

⁴Uye utsi hwezvinonhuhwira hwakakwira pamberi paMwari hwuchibva muruoko rwomutumwa pamwe neminyengetero yavatsvene.

⁴And the smoke of the incense went up with the prayers of the saints, out of the hand of the angel before God.

⁵Mutumwa akatora mudziyo wezvinonhuhwira, akauzadza nomoto wearitari, akaukandira panyika; ipapo kukavapo namanzwi nekutinhira nemheni nokudengenyeka kwenyika.

⁵And the angel took the censer, and filled it from the fire of the altar, and cast [it] on the earth: and there were voices, and thunders and lightnings, and an earthquake.

⁶Ipapo vatumwa vanomwe vakange vane hwamanda nomwe vakazvigadzirira kuridza.

⁶And the seven angels who had the seven trumpets prepared themselves that they might sound with [their] trumpets.

⁷Mutumwa wekutanga wakaridza, kukauya chimvuramabwe nemoto zvakavhenganiswa neropa, zvikakandirwa panyika; nechetatu chemiti chikatsva, neuswa unyoro hwose hwakapiswa.

⁷And the first sounded [his] trumpet: and there was hail and fire, mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth; and the third part of the earth was burnt up, and the third part of the trees was burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

⁸Zvino mutumwa wechipiri wakaridza, chimwe segomo guru rinopfuta nemoto chikakandwa mugungwa. chetatu chegungwa ndokuva ropa;

⁸And the second angel sounded [his] trumpet: and as a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea, and the third part of the sea became blood;

⁹uye chetatu chezvisikwa zvakange zviri zvipenyu mugungwa chikafa, nechetatu chezvikepe chikaparadzwa.

⁹and the third part of the creatures which were in the sea which had life died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.

¹⁰Zvino mutumwa wechitatu wakaridza, kukawa nyeredzi huru kubva kudenga, ichipfuta semwenje, ikawira pamusoro pechetatu chenzizi nepamusoro pezvitubu zvemvura.

¹⁰And the third angel sounded [his] trumpet: and there fell out of the heaven a great star, burning as a torch, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters.

¹¹Zvino zita renyeredzi rakange richinzi, Gavakava; chetatu chemvura ndokuva gavakava, nevanhu vazhinji vakafa nemvura, nekuti yakange yavaviswa.

¹¹And the name of the star is called Wormwood; and the third part of the waters became wormwood, and many of the men died of the waters because they were made bitter.

¹²Zvino mutumwa wechina wakaridza, chetatu chezuva chikarohwa, nechetatu chemwedzi, nechetatu chenyeredzi, kuti chetatu chazvo chisvibiswe, uye kuti chetatu chemasikati chirege kuvhenekera, neusiku saizvozvo.

¹²And the fourth angel sounded [his] trumpet: and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so that the third part of them should be darkened, and that the day should not appear [for] the third part of it, and the night the same.

¹³Zvino ndakatarira, ndikanzwa mutumwa achibhururuka nepakati pedenga, achiti nenzwi guru: Mune nhamo, Mune nhamo, Mune nhamo, vagari vepanyika, nekuda kwemamwe manzwi ehwamanda evatumwa vatatu vachazoridza!

¹³And I saw, and I heard an eagle flying in mid-heaven, saying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe, to them that dwell upon the earth, for the remaining voices of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound.
