Aleruuya

19 (A)Oluvannyuma lw’ebyo ne mpulira oluyoogaano lw’abantu abangi mu ggulu nga bagamba nti,

“Aleruuya!
Obulokozi n’ekitiibwa n’amaanyi bya Katonda waffe.
    (B)Kubanga ensala ye ey’emisango ya mazima era ya butuukirivu.
Yabonereza malaaya omukulu
    eyayonoona ensi n’obwenzi bwe.
Era yawoolera eggwanga ku mwenzi oyo olw’omusaayi gw’abaweereza be.”

(C)Ate ne boogera ogwokubiri mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka nti,

“Aleruuya!
Omukka ogw’okwokebwa kwe n’omuliro, gunyooka emirembe n’emirembe!”

(D)Awo ebiramu ebina n’abakadde amakumi abiri mu abana ne basinza Katonda eyali atudde ku ntebe ey’obwakabaka, nga bagamba nti,

“Amiina. Aleruuya.”

(E)Awo eddoboozi ne liva mu ntebe ey’obwakabaka nga ligamba nti:

“Mumutendereze Katonda waffe,
    mmwe abaddu be mwenna
abamutya
    abeekitiibwa n’abatali baakitiibwa.”

(F)Ate ne mpulira oluyoogaano lw’abantu abangi olwawulikika ng’amayengo ag’ennyanja ennene, oba ng’eddoboozi ery’okubwatuka, ne boogera nti,

“Aleruuya,
    kubanga Mukama Katonda waffe Ayinzabyonna y’afuga.
(G)Ka tusanyuke, tujaguze,
    era tumugulumize,
kubanga ekiseera kituuse eky’embaga ey’obugole ey’Omwana gw’Endiga,
    era n’omugole we yeeteeseteese.
(H)Omugole n’ayambazibwa olugoye olwa linena omulungi ennyo,
    olunekaaneka era olusingayo okutukula.”

(Linena omulungi ennyo by’ebikolwa eby’obutuukirivu eby’abatukuvu.)

(I)Malayika n’aŋŋamba nti, “Wandiika nti balina omukisa abo abayitiddwa ku kijjulo ky’embaga ey’obugole ey’Omwana gw’Endiga.” N’ayongerako na kino nti, “Katonda yennyini ye yakyogera.”

10 (J)Ne ndyoka ngwa wansi ku bigere bye okumusinza naye ye n’aŋŋamba nti, “Tokikola! Kubanga nange ndi muddu wa Katonda nga ggwe era ng’abooluganda abalala abanywerera ku ebyo Yesu bye yatumanyisa! Ssinza Katonda. Okutegeeza kwa Yesu gwe mwoyo gw’obunnabbi.”

Eyeebagadde Embalaasi Enjeru

11 (K)Ne ndaba eggulu nga libikkuse era laba embalaasi enjeru ng’agyebagadde ayitibwa Omwesigwa era Ow’amazima, asala omusango mu butuukirivu era mulwanyi wa kitalo mu ntalo. 12 (L)Amaaso ge gaali ng’olulimi lw’omuliro ogwaka, era nga yeetikkidde engule nnyingi ku mutwe gwe, ng’alina erinnya eriwandiikiddwa, kyokka ye yekka nga y’alimanyi. 13 (M)Yali ayambadde ekyambalo ekyali kinnyikiddwa mu musaayi era ng’erinnya lye ye Kigambo wa Katonda. 14 (N)Ab’eggye ery’omu ggulu abaali bambadde engoye eza linena omulungi ennyo enjeru, nabo ne bamugoberera nga beebagadde embalaasi enjeru. 15 (O)Mu kamwa ke mwavaamu ekitala eky’obwogi eky’okutemesa amawanga. “Alibafuga n’omuggo ogw’ekyuma.” Alirinnya ku ssogolero ly’omwenge ogw’obusungu bwe, kye kiruyi kya Katonda Ayinzabyonna. 16 (P)Ku kyambalo kye ne ku kisambi kye kwali kuwandiikiddwako nti:

“Kabaka wa Bakabaka era Mukama wa bakama.”

17 (Q)Awo ne ndaba malayika omu ng’ayimiridde mu njuba ng’ayogera mu ddoboozi ery’omwanguka ng’agamba ebinyonyi nti, “Mujje mukuŋŋaane ku kijjulo kya Katonda omukulu, 18 (R)mulye ennyama y’emirambo gya bakabaka, abakulu b’amaggye n’abasajja ab’amaanyi, n’egy’embalaasi n’egy’abo abazeebagala, era n’egy’abantu bonna abaddu n’ab’eddembe, abeekitiibwa n’abatali baakitiibwa.”

19 (S)Awo ne ndyoka ndaba ekisolo n’abafuzi ab’omu nsi n’amaggye gaabwe nga bakuŋŋaanye balwanyise oyo eyali yeebagadde embalaasi, awamu n’eggye lye. 20 (T)Ekisolo ne kiwambibwa awamu ne nnabbi ow’obulimba eyakolanga ebyamagero ng’ekisolo kiraba; bye yakola ng’alimbalimba abo abakkiriza akabonero k’ekisolo era abasinza ekifaananyi kyakyo. Awo ekisolo ne nnabbi ow’obulimba ne basuulibwa nga balamu, mu nnyanja ey’omuliro eyaka ne salufa. 21 (U)Abaasigalawo ne battibwa n’obwogi bw’ekitala ekyava mu kamwa k’oyo eyeebagadde embalaasi. Ennyonyi zonna ez’omu bbanga ne zirya ne zekkutira emirambo gyabwe.

Threefold Hallelujah Over Babylon’s Fall

19 After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude(A) in heaven shouting:

“Hallelujah!(B)
Salvation(C) and glory and power(D) belong to our God,
    for true and just are his judgments.(E)
He has condemned the great prostitute(F)
    who corrupted the earth by her adulteries.
He has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”(G)

And again they shouted:

“Hallelujah!(H)
The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever.”(I)

The twenty-four elders(J) and the four living creatures(K) fell down(L) and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne. And they cried:

“Amen, Hallelujah!”(M)

Then a voice came from the throne, saying:

“Praise our God,
    all you his servants,(N)
you who fear him,
    both great and small!”(O)

Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude,(P) like the roar of rushing waters(Q) and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:

“Hallelujah!(R)
    For our Lord God Almighty(S) reigns.(T)
Let us rejoice and be glad
    and give him glory!(U)
For the wedding of the Lamb(V) has come,
    and his bride(W) has made herself ready.
Fine linen,(X) bright and clean,
    was given her to wear.”

(Fine linen stands for the righteous acts(Y) of God’s holy people.)

Then the angel said to me,(Z) “Write this:(AA) Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!”(AB) And he added, “These are the true words of God.”(AC)

10 At this I fell at his feet to worship him.(AD) But he said to me, “Don’t do that! I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers and sisters who hold to the testimony of Jesus. Worship God!(AE) For it is the Spirit of prophecy who bears testimony to Jesus.”(AF)

The Heavenly Warrior Defeats the Beast

11 I saw heaven standing open(AG) and there before me was a white horse, whose rider(AH) is called Faithful and True.(AI) With justice he judges and wages war.(AJ) 12 His eyes are like blazing fire,(AK) and on his head are many crowns.(AL) He has a name written on him(AM) that no one knows but he himself.(AN) 13 He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood,(AO) and his name is the Word of God.(AP) 14 The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen,(AQ) white(AR) and clean. 15 Coming out of his mouth is a sharp sword(AS) with which to strike down(AT) the nations. “He will rule them with an iron scepter.”[a](AU) He treads the winepress(AV) of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. 16 On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written:(AW)

king of kings and lord of lords.(AX)

17 And I saw an angel standing in the sun, who cried in a loud voice to all the birds(AY) flying in midair,(AZ) “Come,(BA) gather together for the great supper of God,(BB) 18 so that you may eat the flesh of kings, generals, and the mighty, of horses and their riders, and the flesh of all people,(BC) free and slave,(BD) great and small.”(BE)

19 Then I saw the beast(BF) and the kings of the earth(BG) and their armies gathered together to wage war against the rider on the horse(BH) and his army. 20 But the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet(BI) who had performed the signs(BJ) on its behalf.(BK) With these signs he had deluded(BL) those who had received the mark of the beast(BM) and worshiped its image.(BN) The two of them were thrown alive into the fiery lake(BO) of burning sulfur.(BP) 21 The rest were killed with the sword(BQ) coming out of the mouth of the rider on the horse,(BR) and all the birds(BS) gorged themselves on their flesh.
