Wolof: New Testament

King James Version

Revelation

5

1 Noonu ma gis ca loxol ndeyjooru ka toog ca gàngune ma téere bu ñu bind biir ak biti, tay ko juróom-ñaari yoon ak sondeel.
1And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
2 Noonu ma gis malaaka mu am doole, muy xaacu naan: «Ku yeyoo dindi tayu yi te ubbi téere bi?»
2And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
3 Te amul kenn, muy ci asamaan, muy ci kaw suuf, muy ci biir suuf, ku manoon a ubbi téere bi, mbaa mu xool ci biir.
3And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
4 Ma jooy jooy yu metti ndax li kenn yeyoowul woon a ubbi téere bi mbaa mu xool ko.
4And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
5 Noonu kenn ca mag ña ne ma: «Bul jooy. Xoolal, Gayndeg giiru Yuda, ki soqikoo ci Daawuda, daan na, ba am sañ-sañu dindi tayu yi te ubbi téere bi.»
5And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
6 Noonu ma gis Mbote mu mel ni dañu koo rendi woon, mu taxaw ca digg gàngune ma, ñeenti mbindeef ya séq ko, mag ña wër ko. Mbote ma amoon na juróom-ñaari béjjén ak juróom-ñaari bët, ñu di juróom-ñaari Xeli Yàlla, yi ñu yónni ci àddina sépp.
6And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
7 Mbote ma ñëw, jël téere, ba nekkoon ca loxol ndeyjooru ka toog ca gàngune ma.
7And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
8 Ba mu jëlee téere ba, ñeenti mbindeef ya ak ñaar-fukki mag ña ak ñeent daldi dëpp seen jë ca kanam Mbote ma, ku nekk yor xalam. Ñu yor it andi wurus yu fees ak cuuraay, yu doon misaal ñaani gaayi Yàlla ya.
8And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
9 Ñu daldi woy woy wu bees naan:«Yeyoo ngaa jël téere bite dindi tayu yi,ndaxte reyees na la,te jotal nga Yàlla ak sa deretay nit ñu bokk ci bépp giir,kàllaama, réew ak xeet.
9And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
10 Def nga leen askanu saraxalekatiBuur Yàlla sunu Boroom,di ko jaamu,te dinañu nguuru ci àddina.»
10And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
11 Ma xool noonu, dégg baatu malaaka yu bare yu ëppoon alfunniy alfunniy junniy junni. Malaaka ya wër gàngune ma ak mbindeef ya ak mag ña.
11And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
12 Ñuy xaacu naan:«Mbote ma ñu rendi woonyeyoo na kàttan, alal, xel,doole, teraanga, ndam ak cant.»
12Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
13 Ma dégg itam mbindeef, yi nekk ci asamaan, ci kaw suuf, ci biir suuf, ci géej gi, — mbindeef yépp naan:«Na cant, teraanga, ndam ak nguurféete ak ki toog ci gàngune mi,ak Mbote mi ba fàww.»
13And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.
14 Ñeenti mbindeef ya naan: «Amiin.» Mag ña sukk di màggal.
14And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.
