4 UYohane ubhalela amabandla asixhenxe akwelaseAsiya; uthi, Makube lubabalo kuni, noxolo oluvela kulowo ukhoyo, wayekho, uzayo; nakubo ooMoya abasixhenxe abaphambi kwetrone yakhe;
5 nakuYesu Kristu, oliNgqina elithembekileyo, Owamazibulo kubo abafileyo, uMphathi wookumkani bomhlaba.Kulowo wasithandayo, wasikhulula ezonweni zethu ngelilelakhe igazi,
6 wasenza ookumkani nababingeleli kuye uThixo uYise: kuye makubekho uzuko namandla, kuse emaphakadeni asemaphakadeni. Amen.
7 Yabonani, uza namafu; aye eya kumbona amehlo onke, kwanabo bamhlabáyo; zaye ziya kummbambazelela zonke izizwe zomhlaba. Ewe, amen.
8 Mna ndinguAlfa* no-Omega,* isiqalo nesiphelo; itsho iNkosi, leyo ikhoyo, yayikho, izayo, uSomandla.
9 Mna Yohane, endikwangumzalwana wenu, nedlelane nani ngayo imbandezelo, nangabo ubukumkani, nangonyamezelo lukaYesu Kristu, ndaye ndisesiqithini ekuthiwa yiPatmos, ngenxa yelizwi likaThixo, nangenxa yobungqina bukaYesu Kristu.
10 Ndaye ndikuMoya ngemini eyeyeNkosi; ndeva emva kwam izwi elikhulu, ngathi lelexilongo, lisithi,
