Kwa iye amene amatikonda+ komanso amene anatimasula ku machimo athu pogwiritsa ntchito magazi ake,+

10 Nditadzazidwa ndi mzimu woyera ndinapezeka kuti ndili mʼtsiku la Ambuye, ndipo kumbuyo kwanga ndinamva mawu amphamvu ngati kulira kwa lipenga.
11 Mawuwo anali akuti: “Zimene ukuona, uzilembe mumpukutu ndi kuutumiza kumipingo 7 yotsatirayi: wa ku Efeso,+ ku Simuna,+ ku Pegamo,+ ku Tiyatira,+ ku Sade,+ ku Filadefiya+ ndi wa ku Laodikaya.”+
12 Ndinacheuka kuti ndione kuti ndi ndani amene ankandilankhula. Nditacheuka, ndinaona zoikapo nyale 7 zagolide.+
13 Pakati pa zoikapo nyalezo, panali wina wooneka ngati mwana wa munthu+ atavala chovala chofika kumapazi ndipo anali atamanga lamba wagolide pachifuwa.
14 Komanso, mutu ndi tsitsi lake zinali zoyera ngati ubweya woyera wa nkhosa, zinali zoyera kwambiri, ndipo maso ake anali ngati lawi la moto.+
15 Mapazi ake anali ngati kopa* woyengedwa bwino+ amene akunyezimira mʼngʼanjo ndipo mawu ake ankamveka ngati mkokomo wa madzi ambiri.
16 Mʼdzanja lake lamanja anali ndi nyenyezi 7.+ Mʼkamwa mwake munkatuluka lupanga lalitali, lakuthwa konsekonse.+ Nkhope yake inali yowala ngati dzuwa limene likuwala kwambiri.+
17 Nditamuona, ndinagwera pamapazi ake ngati kuti ndafa.
Ndipo anandigwira ndi dzanja lake lamanja nʼkundiuza kuti: “Usachite mantha. Ine ndine Woyamba+ ndi Womaliza,+
18 ndiponso wamoyo.+ Ndinali wakufa,+ koma taona, ndili ndi moyo ndipo ndidzakhala ndi moyo mpaka kalekale,+ komanso ndili ndi makiyi a imfa ndi a Manda.*+
19 Choncho lemba zimene waona, zimene zikuchitika panopa ndi zimene zichitike pambuyo pa zimenezi.
20 Koma za chinsinsi chopatulika cha nyenyezi 7 zimene waona mʼdzanja langa lamanja ndiponso za chinsinsi cha zoikapo nyale 7 zagolide, tanthauzo lake ndi ili: Nyenyezi 7 zikuimira angelo a mipingo 7, ndipo zoikapo nyale 7 zikuimira mipingo 7.”+
