As we begin to consider the typification of the time of the end in 1989, by the prophetic history of verse ten, it is necessary to drop back into the history of the third generation of both horns of the earth beast. In 1913, the earth beast’s horn of Republicanism began its generation of compromise with the globalist banking system, and in 1919, the horn of true Protestantism began its generation of compromise with the theologians of apostate Protestantism and also the American Medical Association as it surrendered the accreditation of its educational system to the world. Both horns began a compromised relationship with the world that would change the direction of their respective messages from that point onward.

Tunapoanza kuzingatia uoneshaji wa mfano wa wakati wa mwisho mwaka 1989, kupitia historia ya kinabii ya aya ya kumi, ni lazima turudi nyuma katika historia ya kizazi cha tatu cha pembe zote mbili za mnyama wa nchi. Mnamo 1913, pembe ya itikadi ya Kirepublikani ya mnyama wa nchi ilianza kizazi chake cha kufanya maridhiano na mfumo wa mabenki wa kimataifa, na mnamo 1919, pembe ya Uprotestanti wa kweli ilianza kizazi chake cha kufanya maridhiano na wanatheolojia wa Uprotestanti uliopotoka na pia na Chama cha Madaktari wa Marekani, iliposalimisha mamlaka ya uidhinishaji wa mfumo wake wa elimu kwa dunia. Pembe zote mbili zilianza uhusiano wa maridhiano na dunia ambao ungebadili mwelekeo wa ujumbe wao husika kuanzia wakati huo na kuendelea.

In that history the starting point for the king of the north, and the king of the south of the last days also reached a turning point. The Miracle of Fatima occurred on October 13, 1917, in Fatima, Portugal. It was the culmination of a series of Marian apparitions witnessed by three young shepherd children: Lucia dos Santos and her cousins Francisco and Jacinta Marto. According to the accounts provided by the children, the Virgin Mary, identified as Our Lady of Fatima, appeared to them on the 13th day of each month from May to October 1917.

Katika historia hiyo, mwanzo wa mfalme wa kaskazini na mfalme wa kusini wa siku za mwisho pia ulifikia hatua ya mgeuko. Muujiza wa Fatima ulitokea tarehe 13 Oktoba 1917, huko Fatima, Ureno. Ulikuwa kilele cha mfululizo wa kuonekana kwa Bikira Maria kulikoshuhudiwa na watoto wachungaji watatu wadogo: Lucia dos Santos na binamu zake Francisco na Jacinta Marto. Kulingana na simulizi zilizotolewa na watoto, Bikira Maria, aliyejulikana kama Mama Yetu wa Fatima, aliwatokea siku ya 13 ya kila mwezi kuanzia Mei hadi Oktoba 1917.

During the final apparition on October 13, 1917, tens of thousands of people gathered at the Cova da Iria, near Fatima, expecting to witness a miracle as predicted by the children. According to the witnesses, the sun appeared to change colors, spin, and dance in the sky. This event came to be known as the Miracle of the Sun or the Miracle of Fatima.

Wakati wa kuonekana kwa mwisho tarehe 13 Oktoba 1917, makumi ya maelfu ya watu walikusanyika katika Cova da Iria, karibu na Fatima, wakitarajia kushuhudia muujiza kama ulivyotabiriwa na watoto. Kwa mujibu wa mashahidi, jua lilionekana kubadilisha rangi, kuzunguka na kucheza angani. Tukio hili likaja kujulikana kama Muujiza wa Jua au Muujiza wa Fatima.

The Miracle of Fatima is a significant event in Catholic history and devotion, and it has been the subject of much study, debate, and religious interpretation over the years. The events at Fatima have had a lasting impact on popular piety, Marian devotion, and the interpretation of apocalyptic themes within the Catholic Church.

Muujiza wa Fatima ni tukio muhimu katika historia na ibada ya Kanisa Katoliki, na umekuwa mada ya utafiti mwingi, mijadala, na tafsiri za kidini kwa miaka mingi. Matukio huko Fatima yamekuwa na athari ya kudumu kwa uchaji wa kidini wa watu wa kawaida, ibada ya Bikira Maria, na tafsiri ya mada za kiapokaliptiki ndani ya Kanisa Katoliki.

The Bolshevik Revolution occurred in Russia on November 7, 1917, when Bolshevik forces, led by Vladimir Lenin and the Bolshevik Party, seized key government buildings and infrastructure in Petrograd (now Saint Petersburg). This event marked the culmination of the Russian Revolution of 1917, which had begun with the February Revolution earlier in the year that led to the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II and the establishment of a provisional government.

Mapinduzi ya Bolshevik yalitokea nchini Urusi tarehe 7 Novemba 1917, wakati vikosi vya Bolshevik, vikiongozwa na Vladimir Lenin na Chama cha Bolshevik, viliteka majengo muhimu ya serikali na miundombinu muhimu huko Petrograd (sasa Saint Petersburg). Tukio hili liliashiria kilele cha Mapinduzi ya Urusi ya 1917, ambayo yalianza na Mapinduzi ya Februari mapema mwaka huo, yaliyosababisha kung'atuka kwa Tsar Nicholas II na kuanzishwa kwa serikali ya mpito.

During the Revolution, the Bolsheviks successfully overthrew the provisional government and established Soviet control over Russia. The Bolsheviks proclaimed the establishment of a socialist state and began implementing their revolutionary program, including the nationalization of industry, land redistribution, and the withdrawal of Russia from World War I. The October Revolution ultimately led to the creation of the Soviet Union and had profound and far-reaching consequences for Russia and the world, shaping the course of 20th-century history.

Wakati wa Mapinduzi, Wabolsheviki waliipindua kwa mafanikio serikali ya mpito na kuanzisha udhibiti wa Kisovieti nchini Urusi. Wabolsheviki walitangaza kuanzishwa kwa dola ya kisoshalisti na wakaanza kutekeleza mpango wao wa kimapinduzi, ikiwemo utaifishaji wa viwanda, ugawaji upya wa ardhi, na kujiondoa kwa Urusi katika Vita vya Kwanza vya Dunia. Mapinduzi ya Oktoba hatimaye yalisababisha kuundwa kwa Umoja wa Kisovieti na yalikuwa na athari za kina na za mbali kwa Urusi na dunia, yakaunda mkondo wa historia ya karne ya 20.

Jesus illustrates the end with the beginning, and in order to fully see the king of the north and the king of the south of the last days, it is necessary to understand their beginnings. The literal kings of the south and the north that are identified in Daniel chapter eleven are defined as the power that rules the literal area of Egypt as the king of the south, and the power that rules the literal geographical area associated with Babylon as the king of the north.

Yesu anaonyesha mwisho kwa kutumia mwanzo, na ili kuwaona kikamilifu mfalme wa kaskazini na mfalme wa kusini wa siku za mwisho, ni lazima kuelewa mwanzo wao. Wafalme halisi wa kusini na wa kaskazini wanaotambuliwa katika sura ya kumi na moja ya Danieli hufafanuliwa kama mamlaka inayotawala eneo halisi la Misri kama mfalme wa kusini, na mamlaka inayotawala eneo halisi la kijiografia linalohusishwa na Babeli kama mfalme wa kaskazini.

Literal prophecy transitioned to spiritual prophecy in the time of the cross, when ancient literal Israel was transitioning to modern spiritual Israel. Literal pagan Rome trampled down literal Jerusalem for three and a half literal years from 67 AD unto 70 AD, and spiritual papal Rome trampled down spiritual Jerusalem for three and a half spiritual years.

Unabii wa halisi uligeuka na kuwa unabii wa kiroho wakati wa msalaba, wakati Israeli ya kale ya halisi ilipokuwa ikibadilika na kuwa Israeli ya kisasa ya kiroho. Rumi ya kipagani ya halisi ilikanyaga-kanyaga Yerusalemu ya halisi kwa miaka mitatu na nusu ya halisi tangu mwaka 67 BK hata mwaka 70 BK, na Rumi ya kipapa ya kiroho ilikanyaga-kanyaga Yerusalemu ya kiroho kwa miaka mitatu na nusu ya kiroho.

Spiritual Babylon is identified in Revelation chapter seventeen, as the whore who commits fornication with the kings of the earth. Spiritual Egypt is identified in Revelation chapter eleven as atheistic France. The modern manifestations of the spiritual king of the north, that received its deadly wound at the time of the end in 1798 and then retaliated against the modern manifestation of the spiritual king of the south at the time of the end in 1989, are both represented in verse forty of Daniel eleven. Both powers have their origins in their last day manifestation in the 1917 to 1918 time frame, which is the same time frame as the generation of compromise for both horns of the earth beast. Those beginnings must be recognized to rightly apply the endings. The beginnings of the last day kings of the north and south both start at the French Revolution.

Babeli ya kiroho inatambulishwa katika Ufunuo sura ya kumi na saba kama kahaba anayezini na wafalme wa dunia. Misri ya kiroho inatambulishwa katika Ufunuo sura ya kumi na moja kama Ufaransa isiyoamini Mungu. Maonyesho ya kisasa ya mfalme wa kaskazini wa kiroho—aliyepokea jeraha la mauti wakati wa mwisho mnamo 1798 na kisha kulipiza kisasi dhidi ya maonyesho ya kisasa ya mfalme wa kusini wa kiroho wakati wa mwisho mnamo 1989—na ya mfalme wa kusini wa kiroho, yote mawili yamewakilishwa katika mstari wa arobaini wa Danieli kumi na moja. Nguvu zote mbili zina chimbuko katika maonyesho yao ya siku za mwisho katika kipindi cha 1917 hadi 1918, ambacho ni kipindi kilekile cha kizazi cha maridhiano kwa pembe zote mbili za mnyama wa nchi. Mianzo hiyo lazima itambuliwe ili kuhusisha kwa usahihi mahitimisho. Mianzo ya wafalme wa siku za mwisho wa kaskazini na wa kusini yote huanza katika Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa.

> “In the sixteenth century the Reformation, presenting an open Bible to the people, had sought admission to all the countries of Europe. Some nations welcomed it with gladness, as a messenger of Heaven. In other lands the papacy succeeded to a great extent in preventing its entrance; and the light of Bible knowledge, with its elevating influences, was almost wholly excluded. In one country, though the light found entrance, it was not comprehended by the darkness. For centuries, truth and error struggled for the mastery. At last the evil triumphed, and the truth of Heaven was thrust out. ‘This is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light.’ John 3:19. The nation was left to reap the results of the course which she had chosen. The restraint of God’s Spirit was removed from a people that had despised the gift of His grace. Evil was permitted to come to maturity. And all the world saw the fruit of willful rejection of the light.

> Katika karne ya kumi na sita, Matengenezo, yakiwasilisha Biblia iliyo wazi kwa watu, yalitafuta kupokelewa katika nchi zote za Ulaya. Baadhi ya mataifa yalipokea kwa furaha, kama mjumbe wa Mbinguni. Katika nchi nyingine, upapa ulifanikiwa kwa kiasi kikubwa kuzuia kuingia kwake; na mwanga wa maarifa ya Biblia, pamoja na mvuto wake wa kuinua, ulifungiwa nje karibu kabisa. Katika nchi moja, ijapokuwa mwanga ulipata kuingia, giza halikuuelewa. Kwa karne nyingi, kweli na uongo vilipambana kwa ajili ya kutawala. Hatimaye uovu ukashinda, na kweli ya Mbinguni ikatupwa nje. 'Hukumu ndiyo hii, ya kwamba nuru imekuja ulimwenguni, na watu wakapenda giza kuliko nuru.' Yohana 3:19. Taifa liliachwa kuvuna matokeo ya njia ambayo lilikuwa limeichagua. Kizuizi cha Roho wa Mungu kikaondolewa kutoka kwa watu waliokuwa wametharau zawadi ya neema Yake. Uovu ukaachiwa ukomae. Na ulimwengu wote ukaona matunda ya kukataa kwa makusudi nuru.

> “The war against the Bible, carried forward for so many centuries in France, culminated in the scenes of the Revolution. That terrible outbreaking was but the legitimate result of Rome’s suppression of the Scriptures. It presented the most striking illustration which the world has ever witnessed of the working out of the papal policy—an illustration of the results to which for more than a thousand years the teaching of the Roman Church had been tending.

> Vita dhidi ya Biblia, vilivyoendelezwa kwa karne nyingi sana nchini Ufaransa, vilifikia kilele katika matukio ya Mapinduzi. Mlipuko ule wa kutisha haukuwa ila matokeo ya lazima ya kukandamizwa kwa Maandiko kulikofanywa na Roma. Uliwasilisha mfano ulio dhahiri zaidi ambao dunia imewahi kushuhudia wa utekelezaji wa sera ya kipapa—mfano wa matokeo ambayo, kwa zaidi ya miaka elfu moja, mafundisho ya Kanisa la Roma yalikuwa yakielekea.

> “The suppression of the Scriptures during the period of papal supremacy was foretold by the prophets; and the Revelator points also to the terrible results that were to accrue especially to France from the domination of the ‘man of sin.’” The Great Controversy, 265, 266.

> Kukandamizwa kwa Maandiko Matakatifu katika kipindi cha ukuu wa kipapa kulitabiriwa na manabii; na mwandishi wa Ufunuo pia anaonyesha matokeo ya kutisha ambayo yangetokea hasa nchini Ufaransa kutokana na utawala wa ‘mtu wa dhambi’. Pambano Kuu, 265, 266.

The French Revolution was produced by the suppression of the Scriptures “during the period of papal supremacy.” The birth of atheism, which was to become the archenemy of the papacy, was brought about by the papacy itself. The French Revolution took place from 1789 to 1799, but the atheistic revolutionary spirit that began in France continued to spread across Europe and beyond. One-hundred eighteen years after the end of the revolution in France, the Russian Revolution began in Russia. The revolution of atheism that began in France, ended in Russia, and in 1917 Russia became the prophetic representative of the nation symbolized by the atheism of Egypt. The dragon power represented as the king of the south had migrated from France to Russia.

Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa yalizalishwa na kukandamizwa kwa Maandiko “katika kipindi cha ukuu wa upapa.” Kuzaliwa kwa ukana-Mungu, ambao ungekuwa adui mkuu wa upapa, kulisababishwa na upapa wenyewe. Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa yalitukia kuanzia mwaka 1789 hadi 1799, lakini roho ya kimapinduzi ya ukana-Mungu iliyoanza nchini Ufaransa iliendelea kuenea kote Ulaya na hata kwingineko. Miaka mia moja na kumi na minane baada ya mwisho wa mapinduzi nchini Ufaransa, Mapinduzi ya Urusi yalianza nchini Urusi. Mapinduzi ya ukana-Mungu yaliyoanza nchini Ufaransa, yaliishia nchini Urusi, na mwaka 1917 Urusi ikawa mwakilishi wa kiunabii wa taifa lililoonyeshwa kwa ishara ya ukana-Mungu wa Misri. Uwezo wa joka uliowakilishwa kama mfalme wa kusini ulikuwa umehama kutoka Ufaransa kwenda Urusi.

The revolution in France was represented politically and prophetically by Napoleon Bonaparte, and in that sense, Napoleon represents the first leader of a nation established in a revolution brought about by the atheism of Egypt. The narcissism of Napoleon is fitly repeated by the narcissism of Putin.

Mapinduzi nchini Ufaransa yaliwakilishwa kisiasa na kiunabii na Napoleon Bonaparte, na kwa maana hiyo, Napoleon anawakilisha kiongozi wa kwanza wa taifa lililoanzishwa kwa mapinduzi yaliyosababishwa na ukanamungu wa Misri. Kujipenda kupita kiasi kwa Napoleon kunarudiwa ipasavyo na kujipenda kupita kiasi kwa Putin.

Napoleon was keenly aware of the power of imagery and propaganda, as is Putin, who was a former KGB officer. The KGB specializes in propaganda. Napoleon used portraiture as a means of projecting his authority, power, and image of leadership to the public. He commissioned portraits from some of the most celebrated artists of his time, including Jacques-Louis David, Antoine-Jean Gros, and Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, among others.

Napoleon alikuwa na ufahamu mkubwa kuhusu nguvu ya taswira na propaganda, kama alivyo Putin, aliyewahi kuwa afisa wa KGB. KGB inabobea katika propaganda. Napoleon alitumia sanaa ya potreti kama njia ya kuonyesha mamlaka yake, nguvu zake, na taswira ya uongozi wake kwa umma. Aliagiza picha zichorwe na baadhi ya wasanii waliotukuka zaidi wa wakati wake, akiwemo Jacques-Louis David, Antoine-Jean Gros, na Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, miongoni mwa wengine.

These portraits depicted Napoleon in various poses and settings, ranging from official state portraits to more informal scenes. They served not only as personal mementos for Napoleon himself but also as tools for spreading his image and influence both domestically and internationally. Putin has accomplished the identical work for himself, with a multitude of pictures of himself in settings that rival any of the modern influencers on the Internet.

Taswira hizi zilimwonyesha Napoleon katika mikao na mazingira mbalimbali, kuanzia taswira rasmi za kiserikali hadi mandhari zisizo rasmi zaidi. Zilitumika si tu kama kumbukumbu binafsi kwa Napoleon mwenyewe bali pia kama nyenzo za kueneza taswira na ushawishi wake ndani ya nchi na kimataifa. Putin ametekeleza kazi ileile kwa ajili yake mwenyewe, akiwa na picha nyingi zake mwenyewe katika mazingira yanayoshindana na yale ya washawishi wa kisasa mtandaoni.

At the beginning of the French Revolution the king, his family and staff were overthrown and executed. At the beginning of the Russian Revolution the Czar, his family and staff were overthrown and executed. The revolution that began in France culminated in Russia. The French Revolution is the subject of the prophecy of chapter eleven of Revelation, and therefore the French Revolution is subject to the rules of prophetic interpretation. Jesus always illustrates the end of a thing with the beginning of a thing, so the Russian Revolution is the end of the French Revolution.

Mwanzoni mwa Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa, mfalme, familia yake na watumishi wake walipinduliwa na kuuawa. Mwanzoni mwa Mapinduzi ya Urusi, Tsari, familia yake na watumishi wake walipinduliwa na kuuawa. Mapinduzi yaliyoanza Ufaransa yalihitimia Urusi. Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa ndiyo somo la unabii wa sura ya kumi na moja ya Ufunuo, na kwa hiyo Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa yako chini ya kanuni za tafsiri ya kinabii. Yesu siku zote huonyesha mwisho wa jambo kwa mwanzo wa jambo, kwa hiyo Mapinduzi ya Urusi ndiyo mwisho wa Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa.

Vladimir Putin represents the last leader of a nation established in a revolution brought about with the atheism of Egypt. The first leader of Russia was Vladimir Lenin. The name “Vladimir” is of Slavic origin and is composed of two elements: “vlad” and “mir.” “Vlad” is derived from the Slavic root “vladeti,” which means “to rule” or to wield power. “Mir” means “world”. The first Vladimir (Lenin) typifies the last Vladimir (Putin), who is also typified by the first leader of the revolution of atheism (Napoleon).

Vladimir Putin anawakilisha kiongozi wa mwisho wa taifa lililoanzishwa katika mapinduzi yaliyoletwa na uateisti wa Misri. Kiongozi wa kwanza wa Urusi alikuwa Vladimir Lenin. Jina "Vladimir" lina asili ya Waslavi na linaundwa na vipengele viwili: "vlad" na "mir." "Vlad" linatokana na mzizi wa Kislavoni "vladeti," ambalo humaanisha "kutawala" au "kushikilia madaraka." "Mir" humaanisha "dunia". Vladimir wa kwanza (Lenin) ni kielelezo cha Vladimir wa mwisho (Putin), ambaye pia anaakisiwa na kiongozi wa kwanza wa mapinduzi ya uateisti (Napoleon).

After Napoleon’s defeat in the War of the Sixth Coalition and the Treaty of Fontainebleau in April 1814, he abdicated the throne of France and was exiled to the Mediterranean island of Elba. He was granted sovereignty over the island and allowed to retain the title of Emperor, albeit in a much-reduced capacity. Napoleon spent around ten months on Elba, during which he made plans to return to power in France. Following his escape from Elba and his brief return to power in France during the Hundred Days, Napoleon was decisively defeated at the Battle of Waterloo in June 1815. After this defeat the Allied powers, particularly Great Britain, were determined to prevent Napoleon from causing any further trouble. Consequently, he was exiled again, this time to the remote island of Saint Helena in the South Atlantic. Napoleon spent the remainder of his life in exile on Saint Helena until his death in 1821.

Baada ya kushindwa kwa Napoleon katika Vita vya Muungano wa Sita na Mkataba wa Fontainebleau mnamo Aprili 1814, aliacha kiti cha enzi cha Ufaransa na akawekwa uhamishoni katika kisiwa cha Elba kilicho katika Bahari ya Mediterania. Alikabidhiwa ukuu juu ya kisiwa hicho na kuruhusiwa kubaki na cheo cha Kaizari, ingawa kwa uwezo uliopunguzwa sana. Napoleon alikaa takribani miezi kumi huko Elba, kipindi ambacho alipanga kurejea madarakani nchini Ufaransa. Baada ya kutoroka kutoka Elba na kurejea kwake kwa muda mfupi madarakani nchini Ufaransa wakati wa Siku Mia, Napoleon alishindwa kwa kishindo katika Vita vya Waterloo mnamo Juni 1815. Baada ya kushindwa huku, madola washirika, hasa Uingereza, waliamua kumzuia Napoleon asilete usumbufu zaidi. Hivyo, akawekwa tena uhamishoni, safari hii kwenye kisiwa cha mbali cha Santa Helena katika Atlantiki ya Kusini. Napoleon alitumia kipindi kilichosalia cha maisha yake uhamishoni Santa Helena hadi kifo chake mwaka 1821.

Putin is a representative of the old guard KGB. The KGB was the main security agency and intelligence agency of the Soviet Union from 1954 until its dissolution in 1991. It was responsible for internal security, counterintelligence, and intelligence gathering, both domestically and internationally. The KGB was known for its extensive network of spies, surveillance operations, and its role in maintaining the Communist regime’s control over the population. Vladimir Putin was a member of the KGB (Committee for State Security), the main security and intelligence agency of the Soviet Union.

Putin ni mwakilishi wa kizazi cha zamani cha KGB. KGB ilikuwa wakala mkuu wa usalama na ujasusi wa Muungano wa Kisovieti kuanzia 1954 hadi Muungano huo ulipovunjika mwaka 1991. Ilikuwa na wajibu wa usalama wa ndani, kupambana na ujasusi, na ukusanyaji wa taarifa za kijasusi, ndani ya nchi na kimataifa. KGB ilikuwa ikijulikana kwa mtandao wake mpana wa wapelelezi, shughuli za ufuatiliaji, na jukumu lake katika kudumisha udhibiti wa utawala wa Kikomunisti juu ya wananchi. Vladimir Putin alikuwa mwanachama wa KGB (Kamati ya Usalama wa Taifa), wakala mkuu wa usalama na ujasusi wa Muungano wa Kisovieti.

Putin joined the KGB in 1975 after graduating from Leningrad State University. Putin worked for the KGB until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, after which he entered politics and eventually became the President of Russia in 2000. His background in the KGB has had a significant influence on his approach to governance and foreign policy. Napoleon’s first exile on the Island of Elba, represents the history of 1991 until the year 2000, when the philosophy of the KGB returned. When Putin is eventually defeated, as represented in verses thirteen to fifteen, that second defeat (the first being 1989), is typified by Waterloo and Napoleon’s second exile, where he died.

Putin alijiunga na KGB mwaka 1975 baada ya kuhitimu kutoka Chuo Kikuu cha Jimbo la Leningrad. Putin alifanya kazi kwa KGB hadi kusambaratika kwa Umoja wa Kisovieti mwaka 1991, baada ya hapo akaingia katika siasa na hatimaye akawa Rais wa Urusi mwaka 2000. Historia yake katika KGB imekuwa na ushawishi mkubwa katika mbinu yake ya utawala na sera za nje. Uhamisho wa kwanza wa Napoleon kwenye Kisiwa cha Elba unaashiria kipindi cha 1991 hadi mwaka 2000, wakati falsafa ya KGB iliporejea. Putin atakaposhindwa hatimaye, kama kunavyoakisiwa katika mistari ya kumi na tatu hadi kumi na tano, kushindwa huko kwa pili (la kwanza likiwa 1989) kunafananishwa na Waterloo na uhamisho wa pili wa Napoleon, ambako alikufa.

Napoleon delivered the deadly wound to the papacy in 1798 and 1799. In 1799 the French Revolution ended in France, but by 1917 it had reached Russia in the Bolshevik Revolution. In 1917 the miracle of Fatima took place in Portugal, and the three children who supposedly communicated with Mary and Joseph were given three secret messages. The three messages were secret in the sense they were only to be read by the pope, the king of the north. The messages directed the pope to call a special meeting with the leaders of the Catholic Church and hold a special ceremony in order to dedicate Russia, which had just become communist Russia the year before, to the virgin Mary.

Napoleon aliupiga upapa jeraha la mauti mnamo 1798 na 1799. Mwaka 1799 Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa yalimalizika nchini Ufaransa, lakini kufikia mwaka 1917 yalikuwa yamefika Urusi kupitia Mapinduzi ya Bolshevik. Mwaka 1917 muujiza wa Fatima ulitokea nchini Ureno, na watoto watatu wanaodaiwa kuwasiliana na Maria na Yosefu walipewa taarifa tatu za siri. Taarifa hizo tatu zilikuwa za siri kwa maana zilipaswa kusomwa na papa tu, mfalme wa kaskazini. Taarifa hizo zilimwelekeza papa aitishe mkutano maalum pamoja na viongozi wa Kanisa Katoliki na kufanya sherehe maalum ili kuiweka wakfu Urusi, ambayo mwaka uliotangulia tu ilikuwa imekuwa Urusi ya Kikomunisti, kwa Bikira Maria.

The messages contained a warning that if the pope refused to follow through on the command to dedicate Russia to Mary, the world would suffer another world war (the first world war was to end the month after the miracle). The messages of Fatima became a structure for conservative Catholic prophetic interpretation. It identified a struggle within the Catholic church between conservative Catholicism, represented by pope John Paul II and the first Vatican council, and Liberal Catholicism represented by the current “woke-pope” and the second Vatican council.

Ujumbe huo ulijumuisha onyo kwamba ikiwa Papa angekataa kutekeleza amri ya kuiweka wakfu Urusi kwa Maria, dunia ingekumbwa na vita vingine vya dunia (Vita vya Kwanza vya Dunia vilikuwa vimalizike mwezi mmoja baada ya muujiza). Ujumbe wa Fatima ukawa muundo wa tafsiri ya kinabii ya Wakatoliki wahafidhina. Ulitambua kuwepo kwa mapambano ndani ya Kanisa Katoliki kati ya Ukatoliki wa kihafidhina, unaowakilishwa na Papa Yohane Paulo wa Pili na Baraza la Kwanza la Vatikani, na Ukatoliki wa kiliberali unaowakilishwa na papa “woke-pope” wa sasa na Baraza la Pili la Vatikani.

In the messages of Fatima the “good pope”, was the “white pope”, and the “bad pope”, was the “black pope”. The good pope, Pope John Paul II, was the conservative pope who identified the Virgin of Fatima as his guiding idol, and the bad pope is the woke-pope, who also rejects any messages from the so-called virgin Mary. When you visit the shrine in Fatima, Portugal as you enter the premises the entrance is set between two giant statues of a black pope on one side and a white pope on the other side, thus representing the internal struggle identified in the Fatima prophecies.

Katika ujumbe wa Fatima, "papa mwema" alikuwa "papa mweupe", na "papa mbaya" alikuwa "papa mweusi". Papa mwema, Papa Yohane Paulo wa Pili, alikuwa papa wa mrengo wa kihafidhina ambaye alimbainisha Bikira wa Fatima kama sanamu yake ya kumwongoza, na papa mbaya ni papa "woke", ambaye pia anakataa ujumbe wowote kutoka kwa anayeitwa Bikira Maria. Unapotembelea mahali patakatifu huko Fatima, Ureno, unapoingia katika eneo hilo, mlango upo kati ya sanamu mbili kubwa za papa mweusi upande mmoja na papa mweupe upande mwingine, hivyo kuwakilisha mapambano ya ndani yaliyotambuliwa katika unabii wa Fatima.

The other element of the three secret messages of Fatima was its emphasis on the warfare of Catholicism (the king of the north), and atheism (the king of the south). Without recognizing that the warfare of Catholicism and atheistic Russia is a subject of the satanic prophecy, which directs a large percentage of Catholicism, it is difficult, if not impossible to understand the support which the Catholic church provided to Nazi Germany during World War Two.

Kipengele kingine cha Siri Tatu za Fatima kilikuwa msisitizo wake juu ya vita kati ya Ukatoliki (mfalme wa kaskazini) na uateisti (mfalme wa kusini). Bila kutambua kwamba vita kati ya Ukatoliki na Urusi ya kiateisti ni mada ya unabii wa kishetani unaoelekeza sehemu kubwa ya Ukatoliki, ni vigumu, ikiwa si kutowezekana, kuelewa msaada ambao Kanisa Katoliki lilitoa kwa Ujerumani wa Nazi wakati wa Vita vya Pili vya Dunia.

The Battle of Leningrad, which lasted from September 8, 1941 to January 27, 1944 during World War Two, was one of the longest and most brutal sieges in history. The Battle of Stalingrad, which occurred from August 23, 1942 to February 2, 1943, is often regarded as the bloodiest and most significant battle of World War Two. It resulted in immense casualties on both sides, with estimates of over 2 million total casualties, including deaths, wounded, and captured soldiers. The Battle of Stalingrad also marked a turning point in the war, as it resulted in a decisive Soviet victory over the German Army and led to the eventual defeat of Nazi Germany.

Mzingiro wa Leningrad, uliodumu kuanzia Septemba 8, 1941 hadi Januari 27, 1944 wakati wa Vita Kuu ya Pili ya Dunia, ulikuwa miongoni mwa mizingiro mirefu na ya kikatili zaidi katika historia. Vita vya Stalingrad, vilivyotokea kuanzia Agosti 23, 1942 hadi Februari 2, 1943, mara nyingi vinachukuliwa kuwa vita vya umwagaji damu zaidi na muhimu zaidi vya Vita Kuu ya Pili ya Dunia. Vilisababisha hasara kubwa sana kwa pande zote mbili, kwa makadirio ya jumla ya wahanga zaidi ya milioni 2, wakiwemo vifo, majeruhi, na askari waliotekwa. Vita vya Stalingrad pia viliashiria mgeuko muhimu katika vita, kwani vilisababisha ushindi wa wazi wa Muungano wa Kisovieti dhidi ya Jeshi la Ujerumani na hatimaye vikapelekea kushindwa kwa Ujerumani wa Nazi.

Without recognizing that Nazi Germany’s warfare against Russia, particularly in the two battles just cited, it is difficult to understand the role of Germany as the secret ally of the Catholic Church. Without the understanding of the premises of a spiritual war between Catholicism that was motivated by the satanic prophecy of Mary of Fatima, against the atheism of Russia, and thereafter the Communist Soviet Union, the logic for Catholicism secretly hiding and then transporting Nazi war criminals around the globe post-World War Two is missed. The Nazi’s were Catholicism’s proxy army in their struggle against Russia.

Bila kutambua kwamba vita vya Ujerumani wa Nazi dhidi ya Urusi, hasa katika mapigano mawili yaliyotajwa hivi punde, ni vigumu kuelewa jukumu la Ujerumani kama mshirika wa siri wa Kanisa Katoliki. Bila kuelewa misingi ya vita ya kiroho baina ya Ukatoliki, uliotiwa msukumo na unabii wa kishetani wa Maria wa Fatima, dhidi ya uateisti wa Urusi, na baadaye Umoja wa Kisovyeti wa Kikomunisti, mantiki ya Ukatoliki kuwaficha kwa siri kisha kuwasafirisha wahalifu wa kivita wa Wanazi kote ulimwenguni baada ya Vita ya Pili ya Dunia hukosa kueleweka. Wanazi walikuwa jeshi la niaba la Ukatoliki katika mapambano yake dhidi ya Urusi.

It is in this prophetic logic that Putin, the head of atheistic Russia, is involved in a war in the Ukraine, whose leaders are openly known to be Nazi’s. The ground troops of Fatima’s war against atheism from World War Two and onward is fascism, and Nazism. Of course, even though this reality of the leaders of the Ukrainian government is well-documented, the modern manifestation of Hitler’s Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda (the mainstream media), has covered these facts as best they could.

Ni katika mantiki hii ya kinabii kwamba Putin, kiongozi wa Urusi isiyoamini Mungu, anahusika katika vita nchini Ukraine, ambayo viongozi wake wanajulikana waziwazi kuwa Wanazi. Majeshi ya ardhini ya vita vya Fatima dhidi ya ukanamungu tangu Vita vya Pili vya Dunia na kuendelea ni ufashisti na ukanazi. Bila shaka, ijapokuwa uhalisia huu kuhusu viongozi wa serikali ya Ukraine umerekodiwa vyema, udhihirisho wa kisasa wa Wizara ya Uelimishaji wa Umma na Propaganda ya Reich ya Hitler (vyombo vya habari vya mkondo mkuu) umeficha ukweli huu kadiri ulivyoweza.

The name “Ukraine” is derived from the Slavic word “ukraina,” which means “borderland” or “the edge.” The term historically referred to the border regions of the Kievan Rus’, the medieval state that preceded modern-day Ukraine, and is situated on the crossroads between Eastern Europe and Eurasia. Throughout history, it has served as a meeting point between various cultures, civilizations, and empires, including the Byzantine Empire, the Ottoman Empire, the Russian Empire, and others. Its strategic location made it a frontier region that experienced significant cultural, political, and military interactions. During the medieval period, Ukraine was the border region of the Kievan Rus’, which was a powerful state that encompassed parts of modern-day Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus. As the Kievan Rus’ expanded and contracted over time, its borders often shifted, and Ukraine remained on the periphery of the state.

Jina "Ukraina" linatokana na neno la Kislavoni "ukraina," linalomaanisha "eneo la mpakani" au "ukingo." Neno hilo kihistoria lilirejelea maeneo ya mpakani ya Kievan Rus', dola ya Zama za Kati iliyotangulia Ukraina ya kisasa, ambayo iko katika makutano kati ya Ulaya ya Mashariki na Eurasia. Katika historia yote, imekuwa mahali pa kukutana kwa tamaduni, ustaarabu, na himaya mbalimbali, zikiwemo Himaya ya Bizanti, Himaya ya Ottoman, Himaya ya Urusi, na nyinginezo. Mahali pake pa kimkakati palifanya iwe eneo la mpakani lililokumbwa na mwingiliano mkubwa wa kitamaduni, kisiasa, na kijeshi. Wakati wa Zama za Kati, Ukraina ilikuwa eneo la mpakani la Kievan Rus', ambayo ilikuwa dola yenye nguvu iliyojumuisha sehemu za Ukraina, Urusi, na Belarusi za leo. Kadiri Kievan Rus' ilivyopanuka na kupungua kwa muda, mipaka yake mara nyingi ilihama, na Ukraina ilisalia pembezoni mwa dola hiyo.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989, as represented in verse ten, verses eleven and twelve identify a battle where the king of the south retaliates and prevails over the king of the north. That battle was fought at Raphia, which was the borderline of the domains of the king of the south and the king of the north.

Baada ya kusambaratika kwa Umoja wa Kisovieti mwaka 1989, kama inavyoonyeshwa katika aya ya kumi, aya ya kumi na moja na ya kumi na mbili zinabainisha vita ambavyo mfalme wa kusini anajibu mashambulizi na kumshinda mfalme wa kaskazini. Vita hivyo vilipiganwa huko Raphia, ambayo ilikuwa mpaka kati ya maeneo ya utawala ya mfalme wa kusini na ya mfalme wa kaskazini.

The Battle of Raphia, which took place in 217 BC, comes from the name of the town near which the battle occurred. Raphia was a town located in the coastal region of ancient Palestine, near the border between the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt and the Seleucid Empire. At the time of the battle the border between the Ptolemaic Kingdom of Egypt, ruled by King Ptolemy IV Philopator, and the Seleucid Empire, ruled by King Antiochus III, was located in the vicinity of Raphia. The battle was fought near this border region as both sides sought to assert control over strategic territories in the Levant.

Vita vya Raphia, vilivyotokea mwaka 217 KK, vinatokana na jina la mji ambao ulikuwa karibu na mahali pambano hilo lilipotokea. Raphia ulikuwa mji uliokuwa katika eneo la pwani la Palestina ya kale, karibu na mpaka kati ya Ufalme wa Ptolemy wa Misri na Milki ya Seleuki. Wakati wa pambano hilo, mpaka kati ya Ufalme wa Ptolemy wa Misri, uliotawaliwa na Mfalme Ptolemy IV Philopator, na Milki ya Seleuki, iliyotawaliwa na Mfalme Antiochus III, ulikuwa katika maeneo ya karibu na Raphia. Vita hivyo vilipiganwa karibu na eneo hili la mpaka, huku pande zote mbili zikitafuta kuthibitisha udhibiti juu ya maeneo ya kimkakati katika Levanti.

The ancient town of Raphia, is located near the modern city of Rafah. Rafah is a city situated in the southern Gaza Strip, which is part of the Palestinian territories. After Ptolemy’s victory at Raphia in 217 BC, he initiated persecutions against the Jews in Jerusalem, and also in Egypt. The victory was short-lived and he met his Waterloo, so to speak, in the next three verses. In verse thirteen, the previously defeated king of the north returns and by verse fifteen he overwhelms the king of the south.

Mji wa kale wa Raphia uko karibu na mji wa kisasa wa Rafah. Rafah ni mji ulioko kusini mwa Ukanda wa Gaza, ambao ni sehemu ya maeneo ya Palestina. Baada ya ushindi wa Ptolemy huko Raphia mnamo 217 K.K., alianza mateso dhidi ya Wayahudi huko Yerusalemu, na pia nchini Misri. Ushindi huo haukudumu, na kama wanavyosema, alipata pigo lake kuu katika mistari mitatu inayofuata. Katika mstari wa kumi na tatu, mfalme wa kaskazini aliyekuwa ameshindwa hapo awali anarudi, na kufikia mstari wa kumi na tano anamlemea mfalme wa kusini.

The victory of Putin in the Ukraine will be used by Putin, a former KGB officer who specialized in propaganda, to most likely expose the Nazi roots of the Ukrainian leadership, and also expose those in the Western World who supported the regime for economic greed, and no doubt also expose the hidden black-sites and bio-labs employed by the globalists, which have been funded by the taxpayers of the United States.

Putin, afisa wa zamani wa KGB aliyebobea katika propaganda, ana uwezekano mkubwa wa kuutumia ushindi wake nchini Ukraine kufichua mizizi ya kinazi ya uongozi wa Ukraine, na pia kuwafichua wale katika Ulimwengu wa Magharibi waliounga mkono utawala huo kwa ulafi wa kiuchumi, na bila shaka pia kufichua black-sites zilizofichwa na maabara za kibiolojia zinazotumiwa na waglobalisti, ambazo zimefadhiliwa na walipa kodi wa Marekani.

Those revelations will destroy the current talking points of the world globalists, and also of the Democratic talking heads in the United States. That victory for Putin will provide the mandate for the eighth President, that is of the seven, to take his role as the prophetic despot that arrives into history just before verse sixteen; and verse sixteen is the soon coming Sunday law.

Mafunuo hayo yatabomoa hoja za mazungumzo za sasa za wafuasi wa utandawazi duniani, na pia za wasemaji wa Chama cha Democratic nchini Marekani. Ushindi huo wa Putin utatoa ridhaa kwa Rais wa nane, ambaye ni wa wale saba, kuchukua nafasi yake kama mtawala dhalimu wa kinabii anayeingia katika historia kabla tu ya mstari wa kumi na sita; na mstari wa kumi na sita ni sheria ya Jumapili inayokuja hivi karibuni.

In verse thirteen, the king of the north regroups his army, and in verse fourteen, pagan Rome is introduced into history for the first time, though it is not yet the king of the north. It is there identified as the symbol which “establishes the vision”, and as the power who exalts himself and then falls. After the victory of Putin in the war in the Ukraine, the papacy will begin to lift itself up into world politics, just in advance of the Sunday law in verse sixteen.

Katika aya ya kumi na tatu, mfalme wa kaskazini anakusanya upya jeshi lake, na katika aya ya kumi na nne, Roma ya kipagani inaletwa katika historia kwa mara ya kwanza, ingawa bado si mfalme wa kaskazini. Hapo inatambulishwa kama ishara ambayo "inathibitisha maono", na kama nguvu inayojitukuza kisha inaanguka. Baada ya ushindi wa Putin katika vita nchini Ukraina, upapa utaanza kujinua katika siasa za dunia, muda mfupi kabla ya sheria ya Jumapili katika aya ya kumi na sita.

The French Revolution, and its connection with the Russian Revolution; Napoleon and Putin; the miracle of Fatima, and its three secrets; the secret alliance between the Vatican and Hitler, the secret alliance between the Vatican and Reagan, are all prophetic “wheels” that intersect in the history of verses eleven through fifteen, which occur during the history of September 11, 2001 until the Sunday law in the United States. It was important to provide a brief summary of these prophetic “wheels” before we take up verse ten.

Mapinduzi ya Ufaransa, na uhusiano wake na Mapinduzi ya Urusi; Napoleon na Putin; muujiza wa Fatima, na siri zake tatu; muungano wa siri kati ya Vatikani na Hitler, muungano wa siri kati ya Vatikani na Reagan, yote ni "magurudumu" ya kinabii yanayokutana katika historia ya mistari ya kumi na moja hadi kumi na tano, historia inayojiri katika kipindi kinachoanzia Septemba 11, 2001 hadi sheria ya Jumapili nchini Marekani. Ilikuwa muhimu kutoa muhtasari mfupi wa "magurudumu" haya ya kinabii kabla ya kuujadili mstari wa kumi.

The following article is taken from “NBC news,” which is as “Main Stream Media,” as it gets, and the “MSM” is the modern version of Hitler’s World War Two propaganda machine. The article is of course anti-Putin, anti-Russian, and pro-Ukraine, but that is not the point. As citizens of the heavenly kingdom, God’s people should not endorse either side of a satanic work, and all warfare is a satanic work.

Makala ifuatayo imetolewa kutoka "NBC news," ambayo ndiyo hasa "Vyombo vya Habari vya Mkondo Mkuu," na "MSM" ni toleo la kisasa la mashine ya propaganda ya Hitler ya Vita vya Pili vya Dunia. Bila shaka makala hiyo ni ya kumpinga Putin, ya kupinga Urusi, na ya kuunga mkono Ukraine, lakini hilo si hoja. Kama raia wa ufalme wa mbinguni, watu wa Mungu hawapaswi kuunga mkono upande wowote wa kazi ya kishetani, na vita vyote ni kazi ya kishetani.

The purpose of this article is to allow those who are unfamiliar with the prophetic warfare between Catholicism (the king of the north) and atheism (the king of the south), and the fact that in the warfare of those two prophetic powers, Naziism has been employed as Catholicism’s proxy army (just as the United States was used in 1989). Students of prophecy need to have enough evidence to see that the background history of World War Two, and of the Cold War, are represented in the current war in Ukraine, as it fulfills verses eleven and twelve, of chapter eleven of Daniel.

Madhumuni ya makala hii ni kuwawezesha wale wasiofahamu vita vya kinabii kati ya Ukatoliki (mfalme wa kaskazini) na Uateisti (mfalme wa kusini), pamoja na ukweli kwamba katika vita vya nguvu hizo mbili za kinabii, Ukanazi umetumiwa kama jeshi linalopigana kwa niaba ya Ukatoliki (kama vile Marekani ilivyotumiwa mwaka 1989). Wanafunzi wa unabii wanapaswa kuwa na ushahidi wa kutosha kuona kwamba historia ya usuli ya Vita vya Pili vya Dunia, na ya Vita Baridi, zimewakilishwa katika vita vya sasa nchini Ukraina, vinapotimiza aya za kumi na moja na kumi na mbili za sura ya kumi na moja ya Danieli.

NBC News Article: “Ukraine’s Nazi problem is real, even if Putin’s ‘denazification’ claim isn’t”

Makala ya NBC News: “Tatizo la Wanazi wa Ukraine ni la kweli, hata kama dai la Putin la ‘kuondoa Unazi’ si la kweli”

> Of the many distortions manufactured by Russian President Vladimir Putin to justify Russia’s assault on Ukraine, perhaps the most bizarre is his claim that the action was taken to “denazify” the country and its leadership. In making his case for entering his neighbor’s territory with armored tanks and fighter jets, Putin has stated that the move was undertaken “to protect people” who have been “subjected to bullying and genocide,” and that Russia “will strive for the demilitarization and denazification of Ukraine.”

> Miongoni mwa upotoshaji mwingi uliobuniwa na Rais wa Urusi Vladimir Putin ili kuhalalisha shambulio la Urusi dhidi ya Ukraine, labda la ajabu zaidi ni dai lake kwamba hatua hiyo ilichukuliwa ili "kuondoa unazi" nchini humo na katika uongozi wake. Katika kuwasilisha hoja yake ya kuingia katika eneo la jirani yake kwa kutumia vifaru na ndege za kivita, Putin amesema kwamba hatua hiyo ilichukuliwa "kulinda watu" ambao "wamekuwa wakinyanyaswa na kufanyiwa mauaji ya kimbari," na kwamba Urusi "itajitahidi kuondoa uwezo wa kijeshi na unazi nchini Ukraine."

> Putin’s destructive actions — among them the devastation of Jewish communities — make clear that he’s lying when he says his goal is to ensure anyone’s welfare.

> Vitendo vya uharibifu vya Putin - miongoni mwao uharibifu mkubwa wa jamii za Wayahudi - vinaonyesha wazi kwamba anadanganya anaposema lengo lake ni kuhakikisha ustawi wa mtu yeyote.

> On its face, Putin’s smear is absurd, not least because Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is Jewish and has said that members of his family were killed during World War II. There is also no evidence of recent mass killings or ethnic purges taking place in Ukraine. Moreover, labeling enemies Nazis is a common political ploy in Russia, especially from a leader who favors disinformation campaigns and wants to stir up feelings of national vengeance against a WWII foe to justify conquest.

> Kwa kuangalia tu, uchafuzi wa sifa unaofanywa na Putin ni wa kipuuzi, si haba kwa sababu Rais wa Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, ni Myahudi na amesema kwamba baadhi ya jamaa zake waliuawa wakati wa Vita vya Pili vya Dunia. Pia hakuna ushahidi wa mauaji ya halaiki ya hivi karibuni au utakaso wa kikabila unaotokea nchini Ukraine. Zaidi ya hayo, kuwaita maadui Wanazi ni hila ya kawaida ya kisiasa nchini Urusi, hasa kutoka kwa kiongozi anayependelea kampeni za upotoshaji na anayetaka kuchochea hisia za kisasi cha kitaifa dhidi ya hasimu wa Vita vya Pili vya Dunia ili kuhalalisha unyakuzi wa maeneo.

> But even though Putin is engaging in propaganda, it’s also true that Ukraine has a genuine Nazi problem — both past and present. Putin’s destructive actions — among them the devastation of Jewish communities — make clear that he’s lying when he says his goal is to ensure anyone’s welfare. But important as it is to defend the yellow-and-blue flag against the Kremlin’s brutal aggression, it would be a dangerous oversight to deny Ukraine’s antisemitic history and collaboration with Hitler’s Nazis, as well as the latter-day embrace of neo-Nazi factions in some quarters.

> Lakini, japokuwa Putin anajihusisha na propaganda, pia ni kweli kwamba Ukraine ina tatizo halisi la Wanazi — la zamani na la sasa. Vitendo vya uharibifu vya Putin — vikiwemo uharibifu mkubwa wa jamii za Kiyahudi — vinaweka wazi kwamba anaposema lengo lake ni kuhakikisha ustawi wa mtu yeyote, anasema uongo. Hata hivyo, ingawa ni muhimu kuitetea bendera ya njano na buluu dhidi ya uchokozi wa kikatili wa Kremlin, itakuwa uzembe hatari kupuuza historia ya Ukraine ya chuki dhidi ya Wayahudi na ushirikiano wake na Wanazi wa Hitler, pamoja na kukumbatiwa kwa siku za karibuni kwa vikundi vya neo-Nazi katika baadhi ya sehemu.

> Why are fleeing Ukrainians being talked about with such sympathy? They are white.

> Kwa nini Waukraine wanaokimbia wanazungumziwa kwa huruma kubwa kiasi hiki? Wao ni weupe.

> On the eve of World War II, Ukraine was home to one the largest Jewish communities in Europe, with estimates as high as 2.7 million, a remarkable number considering the territory’s long record of antisemitism and pogroms. By the end, more than half would perish. When German troops took control of Kyiv in 1941, they were welcomed by “Heil Hitler” banners. Soon after, nearly 34,000 Jews — along with Roma and other “undesirables” — were rounded up and marched to fields outside the city on the pretext of resettlement only to be massacred in what became known as the “Holocaust by bullets.”

> Kabla ya kuanza kwa Vita vya Pili vya Dunia, Ukraine ilikuwa makazi ya mojawapo ya jamii kubwa zaidi za Wayahudi barani Ulaya, kwa makadirio ya hadi watu milioni 2.7, idadi ya kushangaza ikizingatiwa historia ndefu ya eneo hilo ya chuki dhidi ya Wayahudi na mapogromu. Mwishoni mwa vita, zaidi ya nusu walipoteza maisha. Vikosi vya Kijerumani vilipochukua udhibiti wa Kyiv mwaka 1941, vilikaribishwa na mabango ya "Heil Hitler". Si muda mrefu baadaye, takriban Wayahudi 34,000 - pamoja na Waroma na wengine waliotajwa kuwa "wasiotakiwa" - walikusanywa na kulazimishwa kutembea hadi kwenye mashamba yaliyo nje ya jiji kwa kisingizio cha kuhamishwa upya, kisha wakauawa kikatili katika kile kilichokuja kujulikana kama "mauaji ya halaiki kwa risasi".

> The Babyn Yar ravine continued to fill up as a mass grave for two years. With as many as 100,000 murdered there, it became one of the largest single killing sites of the Holocaust outside of Auschwitz and other death camps. Researchers have noted the key role locals played in fulfilling Nazi kill orders at the site.

> Korongo la Babyn Yar liliendelea kujazwa kama kaburi la halaiki kwa miaka miwili. Kwa hadi watu 100,000 waliouawa huko, likawa mojawapo ya maeneo makubwa zaidi ya mauaji katika mahali pamoja wakati wa Holocaust nje ya Auschwitz na kambi nyingine za mauti. Watafiti wamebainisha jukumu muhimu walilocheza wenyeji katika kutekeleza amri za mauaji zilizotolewa na Wanazi katika eneo hilo.

> Nowadays, Ukraine counts between 56,000 to 140,000 Jews, who enjoy freedoms and protections never imagined by their grandparents. That includes an updated law passed last month criminalizing antisemitic acts. Unfortunately, the law was intended to address a pronounced uptick in public displays of bigotry, including swastika-laden vandalism of synagogues and Jewish memorials, and eerie marches in Kyiv and other cities that celebrated the Waffen SS.

> Siku hizi, Ukraina ina kati ya Wayahudi 56,000 na 140,000, ambao wanafurahia uhuru na ulinzi ambao babu na nyanya zao hawakuwahi hata kufikiria. Hiyo inajumuisha sheria iliyosasishwa iliyopitishwa mwezi uliopita inayofanya matendo ya chuki dhidi ya Wayahudi kuwa kosa la jinai. Kwa bahati mbaya, sheria hiyo ilikusudiwa kushughulikia ongezeko kubwa la maonyesho ya hadharani ya chuki za kibaguzi, yakiwemo uharibifu wa masinagogi na maeneo ya kumbukumbu ya Wayahudi uliotapakizwa alama za swastika, na maandamano ya kutisha mjini Kyiv na miji mingine yaliyoyaenzi Waffen SS.

> In another ominous development, Ukraine has in recent years erected a glut of statues honoring Ukrainian nationalists whose legacies are tainted by their indisputable record as Nazi proxies. The Forward newspaper cataloged some of these deplorables, including Stepan Bandera, leader of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), whose followers acted as local militia members for the SS and German army. “Ukraine has several dozen monuments and scores of street names glorifying this Nazi collaborator, enough to require two separate Wikipedia pages,” the Forward wrote.

> Katika maendeleo mengine ya kutia wasiwasi, katika miaka ya hivi karibuni Ukraine imejenga wingi mkubwa wa sanamu zinazowaenzi wafuasi wa utaifa wa Ukraine ambao urithi wao umechafuliwa na rekodi yao isiyopingika ya kuwa vibaraka wa Wanazi. Gazeti la The Forward liliweka orodha ya baadhi ya hawa wanaostahili kulaaniwa, akiwemo Stepan Bandera, kiongozi wa Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN), ambaye wafuasi wake walihudumu kama wanamgambo wa wenyeji kwa ajili ya SS na jeshi la Ujerumani. "Ukraine ina makumi kadhaa ya minara ya kumbukumbu na makumi ya majina ya barabara yanayomtukuza mshirika huyu wa Wanazi, kiasi cha kuhitaji kurasa mbili tofauti za Wikipedia," liliandika gazeti la The Forward.

> Another frequent honoree is Roman Shukhevych, revered as a Ukrainian freedom fighter but also the leader of a feared Nazi auxiliary police unit that the Forward notes was “responsible for butchering thousands of Jews and … Poles.” Statues have also been raised for Yaroslav Stetsko, a one-time chair of the OUN, who wrote “I insist on the extermination of the Jews in Ukraine.”

> Mwingine anayeheshimiwa mara kwa mara ni Roman Shukhevych, anayeheshimiwa kama mpigania uhuru wa Ukraine lakini pia alikuwa kiongozi wa kikosi cha polisi msaidizi cha Wanazi kinachoogopwa ambacho Forward inabainisha kilihusika katika kuchinja maelfu ya Wayahudi na ... Wapolandia. Sanamu pia zimejengwa kwa heshima ya Yaroslav Stetsko, aliyewahi kuwa mwenyekiti wa OUN, ambaye aliandika “Nasisitiza kuangamizwa kwa Wayahudi nchini Ukraine.”

> Far-right groups have also gained political currency in the past decade, none more chilling than Svoboda (formerly the Social National Party of Ukraine), whose leader claimed the country was controlled by a “Muscovite-Jewish mafia” and whose deputy used an antisemitic slur to describe Ukrainian-born Jewish actor Mila Kunis. Svoboda has sent several members to Ukraine’s Parliament, including one who called the Holocaust a “bright period” in human history, according to Foreign Policy.

> Makundi ya mrengo mkali wa kulia pia yamepata ushawishi wa kisiasa katika muongo uliopita; miongoni mwao, la kutisha zaidi ni Svoboda (zamani ikiitwa Chama cha Kitaifa cha Kijamii cha Ukraine), ambayo kiongozi wake alidai kwamba nchi inadhibitiwa na 'mafia ya Wamoscow-Wayahudi' na naibu wake alitumia tusi la chuki dhidi ya Wayahudi kumwelezea mwigizaji Myahudi aliyezaliwa Ukraine, Mila Kunis. Svoboda imetuma wanachama kadhaa katika Bunge la Ukraine, akiwemo mmoja ambaye aliita Mauaji ya Kimbari ya Wayahudi 'kipindi angavu' katika historia ya binadamu, kwa mujibu wa Foreign Policy.

> Just as disturbing, neo-Nazis are part of some of Ukraine’s growing ranks of volunteer battalions. They are battle-hardened after waging some of the toughest street fighting against Moscow-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine following Putin’s Crimean invasion in 2014. One is the Azov Battalion, founded by an avowed white supremacist who claimed Ukraine’s national purpose was to rid the country of Jews and other inferior races. In 2018, the U.S. Congress stipulated that its aid to Ukraine couldn’t be used “to provide arms, training or other assistance to the Azov Battalion.” Even so, Azov is now an official member of the Ukraine National Guard.

> Cha kusikitisha vilevile, wanazi wapya ni sehemu ya baadhi ya mabatalioni ya kujitolea yanayoongezeka nchini Ukraine. Wamekomaa vitani baada ya kupigana baadhi ya mapigano ya mitaani magumu zaidi dhidi ya wanajitenga wanaoungwa mkono na Moscow huko mashariki mwa Ukraine kufuatia uvamizi wa Putin wa Crimea mwaka 2014. Mmoja wao ni Batalioni ya Azov, iliyoanzishwa na mtetezi wa ubora wa wazungu aliyejitangaza hadharani ambaye alidai kuwa kusudi la kitaifa la Ukraine lilikuwa kuwaondoa nchini Wayahudi na mbari nyingine duni. Mnamo 2018, Bunge la Marekani liliweka masharti kwamba msaada wake kwa Ukraine usingeweza kutumiwa "kutoa silaha, mafunzo au msaada mwingine kwa Batalioni ya Azov." Hata hivyo, Azov sasa ni mwanachama rasmi wa Walinzi wa Kitaifa wa Ukraine.

> For sure, none of this disturbing context justifies the misery that has befallen Ukrainians over the past several weeks — and it’s unlikely that Putin was motivated by any of it when he launched his invasion. Indeed, thanks to Putin, Jews living in Odessa, Kharkiv and other eastern cities are under extreme duress. While many have taken refuge in local synagogues and Jewish centers, others have fled to foreign countries, including Israel, which has urged all Jews to leave Ukraine.

> Hakika, hakuna chochote katika muktadha huu unaotia wasiwasi kinachoweza kuhalalisha mateso yaliyowakumba Waukraine katika wiki kadhaa zilizopita - na kuna uwezekano mdogo kwamba Putin alichochewa na lolote kati ya hayo alipoanzisha uvamizi wake. Kwa kweli, kutokana na Putin, Wayahudi wanaoishi Odessa, Kharkiv na miji mingine ya mashariki wako chini ya shinikizo kubwa sana. Wakati wengi wamepata hifadhi katika masinagogi na vituo vya Wayahudi vya eneo hilo, wengine wamekimbilia nchi za kigeni, zikiwemo Israeli, ambayo imewasihi Wayahudi wote waondoke Ukraine.

> My own grandparents themselves had to flee western Ukraine to escape persecution, and it is tragic to see this cycle continue. If the country devolves into chaos and insurgency, Jews could once again be at risk from some of their fellow citizens. Not acknowledging this threat means that little is being done to guard against it.

> Babu na bibi zangu wenyewe walilazimika kukimbia kutoka magharibi mwa Ukraine ili kukwepa mateso, na ni jambo la kusikitisha kuona mzunguko huu ukiendelea. Iwapo nchi itaangukia katika machafuko na uasi, Wayahudi wanaweza tena kuwa hatarini kutokana na baadhi ya raia wenzao. Kutoitambua hatari hii kunamaanisha kwamba kuna juhudi chache sana zinazofanywa kujikinga dhidi yake.

> But even if some elements of the country have been entangled with one of history’s most loathsome movements, standing with Ukraine is without doubt the honorable posture to take in this drama. Right now, every day that Putin ratchets up his assault against the Ukrainian people with scorched-earth zeal, it’s hard not to see who truly deserves the N-word.

> Lakini hata kama makundi fulani nchini yamejihusisha na moja ya harakati za kuchukiza zaidi katika historia, kuiunga mkono Ukraine bila shaka ndiyo msimamo wa heshima wa kuchukua katika mzozo huu. Hivi sasa, kila siku ambayo Putin anazidisha shambulio lake dhidi ya watu wa Ukraine kwa ari ya sera ya kuunguza ardhi yote, ni vigumu kutokuona ni nani anayestahili kweli kuitwa N-word.

> Katika historia na unabii, Neno la Mungu linaonyesha mzozo uliodumu kwa muda mrefu kati ya kweli na upotovu. Mzozo huo bado unaendelea. Mambo yale yaliyokuwapo yatajirejea. Mabishano ya kale yatafufuliwa, na nadharia mpya zitaendelea kujitokeza. Lakini watu wa Mungu, ambao katika imani yao na katika utimizaji wa unabii wamechukua sehemu katika kutangaza ujumbe wa malaika wa kwanza, wa pili, na wa tatu, wanajua mahali waliposimama. Wana uzoefu ulio wa thamani zaidi kuliko dhahabu safi. Wanapaswa kusimama imara kama mwamba, wakishikilia kwa uthabiti tumaini waliloanza nalo hadi mwisho. Selected Messages, kitabu cha 2, 109.
