Revelation

16

1Zvino ndakanzwa inzwi guru richibva mutembere richiti kuvatumwa vanomwe: Endai munodurura ndiro nomwe dzehasha dzaMwari panyika.
1I heard a loud voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels, “Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth!”
2Zvino wekutanga wakaenda, akadurura ndiro yake panyika; neronda rakaipa rinorwadza rikawira pavanhu vakange vane mucherechedzo wechikara nevakanamata mufananidzo wacho.
2The first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth, and it became a harmful and evil sore on the people who had the mark of the beast, and who worshiped his image.
3Zvino mutumwa wechipiri akadurura ndiro yake pamusoro pegungwa; rikava seropa rewakafa; mweya mupenyu woga woga ukafa mugungwa.
3The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood as of a dead man. Every living thing in the sea died.
4Zvino mutumwa wechitatu akadurura ndiro yake pamusoro penzizi nezvitubu zvemvura ndokuva ropa.
4The third poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood.
5Zvino ndakanzwa mutumwa wemvura achiti: Makarurama imwi Ishe, uripo newakange aripo neuchazovapo nekuti makatonga saizvozvi.
5I heard the angel of the waters saying, “You are righteous, who are and who were, you Holy One, because you have judged these things.
6Nekuti vakadurura ropa revatsvene nevaporofita, uye makavapa ropa kuti vamwe; nekuti vakafanira.
6For they poured out the blood of the saints and the prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. They deserve this.”
7Zvino ndakanzwa umwe muaritari achiti: Hongu, Ishe Mwari Wamasimbaose, kutonga kwenyu ndekwechokwadi kwakarurama.
7I heard the altar saying, “Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments.”
8Zvino mutumwa wechina akadurura ndiro yake pamusoro pezuva, nesimba rakapiwa kwariri kupisa vanhu nemoto.
8The fourth poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was given to him to scorch men with fire.
9Zvino vanhu vakapiswa nekupisa kukuru, vakanyomba zita raMwari une simba pamusoro pematambudziko awa; vakasatendevuka kuti vamupe rukudzo.
9People were scorched with great heat, and people blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues. They didn’t repent and give him glory.
10Zvino mutumwa wechishanu wakadurura ndiro yake pamusoro pechigaro cheushe chechikara; ushe hwacho ndokuzadzwa nerima, vakatsenga marimi avo nekurwadzwa;
10The fifth poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was darkened. They gnawed their tongues because of the pain,
11vakanyomba Mwari wekudenga nekuda kwemarwadzo avo nemaronda avo; asi havana kutendeuka pamabasa avo.
11and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores. They didn’t repent of their works.
12Zvino mutumwa wechitanhatu akadurura ndiro yake pamusoro perwizi rukuru, Yufratesi; mvura yarwo ndokupwa, kuti nzira yemadzimambo anobva kumabvazuva igadzirwe.
12The sixth poured out his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates. Its water was dried up, that the way might be prepared for the kings that come from the sunrise.
13Ipapo ndakaona mweya yetsvina mitatu sematafi ichibva mumuromo wezibukanana nemumuromo wechikara, nemumuromo wemuporofita wenhema;
13I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, something like frogs;
14Nekuti ndiyo mweya yemadhimoni inoita zviratidzo inobudira kumadzimambo enyika nepanyika yose, kuvakokera kuhondo yezuva iro guru raMwari Wamasimbaose.
14for they are spirits of demons, performing signs; which go forth to the kings of the whole inhabited earth, to gather them together for the war of that great day of God, the Almighty.
15Tarira, ndinouya sembavha. Wakaropafadzwa uyo unorinda, achichengeta nguvo dzake kuti arege kufamba akashama, vaone nyadzi dzake.
15 “Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his clothes, so that he doesn’t walk naked, and they see his shame.”
16Zvino wakavaunganidza panzvimbo inonzi nechiHebheru Hamagedhoni.
16He gathered them together into the place which is called in Hebrew, Megiddo.
17Zvino mutumwa wechinomwe akadurura ndiro yake mumhepo, kukabuda inzwi guru kubva mutembere yekudenga, pachigaro cheushe, richiti: Zvaitika!
17The seventh poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came forth out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, “It is done!”
18Zvino kwakava nemanzwi nemitinhiro nemheni; uye kukava nokudengenyika kwenyika kukuru kusina kumbovapo kubva kuvapo kwakaita vanhu panyika, kudengenyeka kwenyika kune simba kwakakura kudai.
18There were lightnings, sounds, and thunders; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since there were men on the earth, so great an earthquake, so mighty.
19Zvino guta guru rikakamurwa kuita zvikamu zvitatu, maguta emarudzi akawa; uye Bhabhironi guru rikarangarirwa pamberi paMwari, kuti ripiwe mukombe wewaini yekutsamwa kwehasha dzake.
19The great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. Babylon the great was remembered in the sight of God, to give to her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
20Zvino chiwi choga choga chikatiza, nemakomo akasawanikwa.
20Every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.
21Chimvuramabwe chikuru chinorema setarenda*, chikawira pamusoro pevanhu chichibva kudenga; vanhu vakanyomba Mwari nekuda kwedamabudziko rechimvuramambwe, nekuti dambudziko racho raiva gurusa kwazvo.
21Great hailstones, about the weight of a talent, came down out of the sky on people. People blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, for this plague is exceedingly severe.
