Zvakazarurwa 16

¹Zvino ndakanzwa inzwi guru richibva mutembere, richiti kuvatumwa vanomwe: Endai, mundodurura panyika ndiro nomwe dzokutsamwa dzaMwari.And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.

²Wokutanga akaenda, akadurura ndiro yake panyika; ronda rakaipa rinorwadza rikavapo pavanhu vakanga vanechiratidzo chechikara, vakanamata mufananidzo wacho.And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there fell a noisome and grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the beast, and upon them which worshipped his image.

³Wechipiri akadurura ndiro yake pagungwa; rikashanduka ropa seromunhu wakafa; nezvipenyu zvose zvakanga zviri mugungwa zvikafa.And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as the blood of a dead man: and every living soul died in the sea.

⁴Wechitatu akadurura ndiro yake panzizi nomumatsime emvura, ikashanduka ropa.And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they became blood.

⁵Ndikanzwa mutumwa wemvura achiti: makarurama imwi Ishe, muripo makanga muripo nouchazovapo nokuti makatonga saizvozvo.And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord, which art, and wast, and shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.

⁶Nokuti vakadurura ropa ravatsvene neravaporofita, mukavapa ropa, kuti vanwe; vakafanirwa naizvozvo.For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given them blood to drink; for they are worthy.

⁷Ndikanzwa mumwe ari muaritari achiti: Hongo, Ishe, Mwari wamasimba ose, kutonga kwenyu ndokwazvokwadi kwakarurama.And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments.

⁸Zvino wechina akadurura ndiro yake pamusoro pezuva, rikapiwa simba kuti ripise vanhu nomoto.And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire.

⁹Vanhu vakapiswa nokupisa kukuru, vakamhura zita raMwari, unesimba pamsoro pamambudziko awa; havana kutendevuka, kuti vamukudze.And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

¹⁰Wechishanu akadurura ndiro yake pamusoro pechigaro chovushe chechikara; vushe bwacho bwukasvibiswa, vakatsenga marimi avo nokurwadzwa;And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and his kingdom was full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,

¹¹vakamhura Mwari wokudenga pamsoro pokurwadzwa kwavo namaronda avo; asi havana kutendevuka pamabasa avo.And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores, and repented not of their deeds.

¹²Zvino wechitanhatu akadurura ndiro yake pamsoro porwizi rukuru, runonzi Yufratesi; mvura yarwo ikapwa, kuti nzira dzamadzimambo anobva kumabvazuva dzigadzirwe.And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates; and the water thereof was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east might be prepared.

¹³Ipapo ndakavona mweya yetsvina mitatu yakaita samatafi ichibva mumuromo weshato nomumuromo wechikara, nomumuromo womuporofita wenhema;And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet.

¹⁴Nokuti ndiyo mweya yakaipa inoita zviratidzo inoenda kumadzimambo enyika yose, kuvakokera kukurwa pazuva iro guru raMwari wamasimba ose.For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

¹⁵Tarira ndinovuya sembavha. Wakaropafadzwa unorinda, unochengeta nguvo dzake kuti arege kufamba asina kupfeka, vavone nyadzi dzake.Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.

¹⁶Akavavunganidzira panzvimbo inonzi Hamagedhoni nechiHebheru.And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.

¹⁷Zvino wechinomwe akadurura ndiro yake mudenga, inzwi guru rikabuda mutembere yokudenga muchigaro chovushe, richiti: Zvapera!And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.

¹⁸Ipapo mheni yakavapo, namanzwi nokutinhira; nokudengenyika kwenyika kukuru kwakavapo; kudengenyika kwenyika kwakakura kura kukadai hakuna kumbovapo kubva pakusikwa kwevanhu panyika.And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, so mighty an earthquake, and so great.

¹⁹Guta guru rikakamurwa rikaita zvikamu zvitatu, maguta amarudzi akaputsika; Bhabhironi guta guru rikarangarirwa pamberi paMwari, kuti ripiwe mukombe wewaini yokutsamwa kwehasha dzake.And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

²⁰Zviwi zvose zvikatiza, namakomo haana kuwanikwa.And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

²¹Chimvuramabwe chikuru, chinobva kudenga, chikawira pamusoro pavanhu, kurema kwebwe rimwe nerimwe kukaita setarenta*; vanhu vakamhura Mwari nokuda kwedamabudziko rechimvuramambwe, nokuti dambudziko racho raiva guru kwazvo.And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.
