Wolof: New Testament

Young`s Literal Translation

Revelation

8

1 Mbote ma dindi na juróom-ñaareelu tayu ga, asamaan ne selaw lu mat genn-wàllu waxtu.
1And when he openeth the seventh seal, there came silence in the heaven about half-an-hour,
2 Noonu ma gis juróom-ñaari malaaka, yi taxaw ca kanam Yàlla, ñu daldi leen jox juróom-ñaari liit.
2and I saw the seven messengers who before God have stood, and there were given to them seven trumpets,
3 Ba loolu amee meneen malaaka ñëw, taxaw ca wetu saraxalukaayu wurus, ba ñuy taal cuuraay ca kawam, yor andu cuuraayu wurus. Ñu jox ko cuuraay lu bare, ngir mu boole ko ak ñaani gaayi Yàlla yépp, joxe ko ci kaw saraxalukaayu wurus ba nekk ci kanam gàngune mi.
3and another messenger did come, and he stood at the altar, having a golden censer, and there was given to him much perfume, that he may give [it] to the prayers of all the saints upon the golden altar that [is] before the throne,
4 Noonu saxarus cuuraay li gillee ca loxob malaaka ma, ànd ak ñaani gaayi Yàlla ya, jëm ca kanam Yàlla.
4and go up did the smoke of the perfumes to the prayers of the saints out of the hand of the messenger, before God;
5 Malaaka ma jël andu cuuraay ba, duy ko ak ay xal ca saraxalukaay ba, daldi koy sànni ci àddina. Noonu mu am ay dënnu, ay riir, ay melax ak yengu-yengub suuf.
5and the messenger took the censer, and did fill it out of the fire of the altar, and did cast [it] to the earth, and there came voices, and thunders, and lightnings, and an earthquake.
6 Ba mu ko defee juróom-ñaari malaaka, ya yoroon juróom-ñaari liit ya, daldi defaru di waaj a liit.
6And the seven messengers who are having the seven trumpets did prepare themselves that they may sound;
7 Malaaka mu jëkk ma wol liitam. Noonu ñu sànni ci àddina yuur ak safara yu ñu boole ak deret, ba tax benn ci ñetti xaaju suuf si lakk, benn ci ñetti xaaju garab yi it lakk, te ñax mu naat mépp lakk.
7and the first messenger did sound, and there came hail and fire, mingled with blood, and it was cast to the land, and the third of the trees was burnt up, and all the green grass was burnt up.
8 Ñaareelu malaaka ma wol liitam. Noonu ñu sànni lu mel ni tundu safara wu réy, mu daanu ci géej gi, benn ci ñetti xaaju géej gi soppiku deret,
8And the second messenger did sound, and as it were a great mountain with fire burning was cast into the sea, and the third of the sea became blood,
9 benn ci ñetti xaaju mbindeef yi nekk ci géej gi dee, te benn ci ñetti xaaju gaal yi yàqu.
9and die did the third of the creatures that [are] in the sea, those having life, and the third of the ships were destroyed.
10 Ñetteelu malaaka ma wol liitam. Noonu biddiiw bu réy, yànj ni jum, xawee asamaan, daanu ci benn ci ñetti xaaju dex yi ak ci bëti ndox yi.
10And the third messenger did sound, and there fell out of the heaven a great star, burning as a lamp, and it did fall upon the third of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters,
11 Biddiiw boobu mi ngi tuddoon Wextan. Nit ñu bare naan ci ndox mi daldi dee, ndaxte ndox mi dafa daldi wex.
11and the name of the star is called Wormwood, and the third of the waters doth become wormwood, and many of the men did die of the waters, because they were made bitter.
12 Ñeenteelu malaaka ma wol liitam. Noonu dóorees benn ci ñetti xaaju jant bi, ak benn ci ñetti xaaju weer wi, ak benn ci ñetti xaaju biddiiw yi, ba tax benn ci ñetti xaaju leer gi lëndëm. Bëccëg bi ñàkk leer diirub benn ci ñetti xaajam, guddi gi ñàkk leer diirub benn ci ñetti xaajam.
12And the fourth messenger did sound, and smitten was the third of the sun, and the third of the moon, and the third of the stars, that darkened may be the third of them, and that the day may not shine — the third of it, and the night in like manner.
13 Ma xool noonu, dégg jaxaay juy naaw ci digg asamaan, naan ak baat bu xumb: «Musiba, musiba! Musibaa ngi ci kaw waa àddina, ndax liit yi yeneen ñetti malaaka yi di wol.»
13And I saw, and I heard one messenger, flying in the mid-heaven, saying with a great voice, `Wo, wo, wo, to those dwelling upon the land from the rest of the voices of the trumpet of the three messengers who are about to sound.`
