1 Nuuko malayika wa gataanu avuza impanda ye. Mbona inyenyeeri yari yamanutse mu ijuru ikagwa ku isi, maze ihaabwa igishumuruzo co kuugurura ikuzimu. 2 Iyo nyenyeeri ko yuuguruye umuhonga*, hacucumukamo umwotsi mwinshi, nk'umwotsi uva mu tanuura nini, maze izuuba n'ikireere bizimiishwa n'uwo mwotsi w'ikuzimu. 3 Nuuko muri uwo mwotsi havamo inzige zija ku isi, maze zihaabwa ububaasha nk'ubw'indyaniishamiriizo yo ku isi. 4 Zaabwiwe kutoonoona ibyatsi, ibimera bibisi, cangwa ibiti byo ku isi, keretse abo bantu batagira ikimenyeetso c'Imaana ku ruhanga rwabo boonyine.

5 Izo nzige zaahaawe ububaasha bwo kubababaza kumara ameezi ataanu, ariko ntizeemererwa kubiica, kandi uko kubababaza kwari nk'uko indyaniishamiriizo ibabaza umuntu iyo imurumye. 6 Muri iyo minsi, abantu bazaashaaka urupfu ariko ntibazaarubona, baziifuuza gupfa, ariko urupfu ruzaabahunga.

7 Izo nzige zaari zimeze nk'ifaraashi zambariye urugamba. Ku mitwe yaazo haari igisa nk'ikamba ya zaahabu, naho mu maaso haazo haasaga nk'ah'abantu. 8 Ubwoya bwazo bwasaga nk'umusatsi w'abagore, naho ameenyo yaazo akamera nk'ay'intare. 9 Ibituuza byazo byari bikingirijwe n'igisa nk'icuuma, naho urusaku rw'amababa yaazo rwari rumeze nk'urusaku rw'amagaare y'amafaraashi menshi agiiye ku rugamba. 10 Zaari zifite imiriizo isa nk'iy'indyaniishamiriizo n'imbuuri mu miriizo yaazo, kandi muri iyo miriizo hakabamo ububaasha bwo kugirira naabi abantu kumara ameezi ataanu. 11 Zifite umwami uzitegeka, ari we malayika ukuriye umuhonga, mu Ruheburaayo yiitwa Abadoni* naho mu Rugiriki akiitwa Apoliyoni.*

12 Icaago ca mbere kirarangiye. Dore hagiiye gukurikiraho ibindi byago bibiri.

13 Nuuko malayika wa gatandatu avuza impanda ye, maze numva ijwi riturutse mu mahembe ane y'itambiro rya zaahabu riri imbere y'Imaana. 14 Iryo jwi ribwira malayika wa gatandatu riti, "Rekura abaamalayika bane babohewe ku ruuzi runini rwa Efurate." 15 Nuuko ba baamalayika bane bararekurwa, kuko kuri iyo saaha, uwo munsi, uko kwezi, n'uwo mwaka, baari abo kwica kimwe ca gatatu c'abantu. 16 Nabwiwe yuuko umubare w'abasirikare barwanira ku mafaraashi baari miliyoni magana abiri. 17 Dore uku ni ko neeretswe mu nzozi, ayo mafaraashi n'abayagenderagaho. Abaayagenderagaho baari bambaye ibyuma bikingira igituuza bisa n'umuriro, n'ubururu nka safiro n'umuhondo nk'amazuuku. Imitwe y'ayo mafaraashi yari imeze nk'imitwe y'intare, kandi mu kanwa kaayo haavagamo umuriro, umwotsi, n'amazuuku. 18 Kimwe ca gatatu c'abantu ciicwa n'ibyo byorezo bitatu, ari byo umuriro, umwotsi n'amazuuku bivuuye mu kanwa k'ayo mafaraashi. 19 Kuko imbaraga z'ayo mafaraashi zaaturukaga mu minwa no mu miriizo yaayo, imiriizo yaayo yasaga n'inzoka ifite imitwe yo yakoreeshaga kugirira abantu naabi.

20 Abantu baari basigaye batiishwe n'ibyo byorezo, ntibaaretse kuramya ibyo biikoreye n'intoki zaabo cangwa ngo bareke kuramya abadayimooni n'ibishushaanyo bikozwe mu izaahabu no mu ifeeza, no mu miringa no mu mabuye no mu biti, bitabaasha kureeba cangwa kumva cangwa kugenda. 21 Maze banga no kwihana ibyaha byabo by'ubwicanyi no kuroga, hamwe n'ubusambanyi n'ubujuura.
