1 Sardis hlangboel kah puencawn te khaw daek pah. He rhoek he Pathen kah Mueihla parhih neh aisi parhih aka khueh loh a thui. Na khoboe te ka ming. Na hing ham ming na khueh dae aka duek la na om coeng te.
And to the angel of the church in Sardis write, These things saith He that hath the seven spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead:
2 Aka hak la om lamtah duek dalh la aka hoei rhoek te duel lah. Na khoboe te ka Pathen hmaiah a soep la ka hmuh moenih.
be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die; for I have not found thy works perfect in the sight of God.
3 Na dang neh na yaak te poek tangloeng laeh. Te phoeiah tuem lamtah yut laeh. Na sap uh tangloeng pawt koinih hlanghuen bangla ka pawk vetih nang taengla ka pawk tue te na ming loengloeng mahpawh.
Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent: for if thou be not watchful, I will come upon thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come upon thee.
4 Tedae a himbai te aka tii sak mueh te Sardis ah a ming bet na om uh. A tingtawk la a om uh dongah kai taengah a bok la pongpa uh ni.
Thou hast a few names even in Sardis, which have not defiled their garments, and they shall walk with me in white; for they are worthy.
5 Aka noeng tah himbai bok neh a bai sak van. Te dongah a ming te hingnah cabu lamkah ka phaeh loengloeng mahpawh. Te vaengah a pa hmai neh a puencawn rhoek hmaiah anih ming te ka phoe ni.
He that overcometh shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name from the book of life; but I will own his name before my Father, and before his angels.
6 Mueihla loh hlangboel rhoek taengah a thui te hna aka khueh loh ya saeh.
Let him, that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
7 Philadelphia hlangboel kah puencawn te khaw daek pah. Hlangcim loh he rhoek he a thui. Oltak, David kah cabi aka pom loh a ong phoeiah khai mahpawh. A khaih vaengah ong pah mahpawh.
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write, These things saith the holy One, He that is true, He that hath the key of David, He that openeth and no one shutteth, and shutteth and no one openeth:
8 Na khoboe te ka ming, na hmaiah ka khueh thohka te ong uh coeng he. Thaomnah” ayol na khueh dongah te te khaih ham a coeng moenih te. Tedae ka ol te kuem lamtah ka ming te basa tak boeh.
I know thy works, and behold I have given thee an open door, and no one shall be able to shut it; for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
9 Satan kah tunim lamloh kan saii ve he. Judah la om ham amah aka thui uh dae om uh pawt tih laithae uh. Amih te ha pawk uh vetih na kho hmaiah bakuep sak ham ka saii ni he. Te vaengah kai loh nang kan lungnah te a ming uh bitni.
Behold, I will give up those of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews, and are not, but speak falsely; behold, I will make them come and bow before thy feet, and they shall know that I have loved thee.
10 Kai kah uehnah olka te na kuem dongah kai khaw nang te diklai hmankah khosa rhoek te noemcai ham lunglai hman boeih ah aka pawk tom noemcainah tue lamkah kan hoep ni.
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which is to come upon the whole world, to try those that dwell upon the earth.
11 Ka pawk tonghnae coeng, na khueh te muk laeh. Na rhuisam te hang rhawt boel saeh.
Behold, I come quickly; hold fast what thou hast, that no one may take thy crown.
12 Aka noeng tah ka Pathen kah bawkim ah rhungsut la ka saii vetih poengla koep cet loengloeng mahpawh. Ka Pathen ming neh Jerusalem thai, ka Pathen kah khopuei, ka Pathen taengkah vaan lamkah aka suntla ming te khaw, kai kah ming thai khaw anih soah ka daek ni.
Him, that overcometh, I will make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go out no more: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, (the new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God, ) and my own new name.
13 Mueihla loh hlangboel rhoek taengah a thui te hna aka khueh loh ya saeh.
Let him, that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
14 “Laodicea kah hlangboel puencawn te khaw daek pah. Uepom neh oltak laipai, Pathen kah suentae a tongnah loh Amen ti saeh.
And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot:
15 Nang kah khoboe te ka ming. A ding la na om pawt tih na ling bal moenih. A ding mai, a ling mai lam khaw na om te ka ngaih.
I wish thou wert cold or hot.
16 Te vanbanglapol-awp la na om dongah na ling pawt tih na ding bal moenih. Ka ka lamloh nang thaa ham ka cai coeng.
So then, because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will cast thee out of my mouth:
17 Kuirhang la ka om tih ka khuehtawn coeng dongah ka ngoe pawh tila na thui. Tedae ngaidaeng ngaikha neh lungmasingta la, khodaeng mikdael neh a tlingyal la na om te na ming moenih.
because thou sayst, I am rich, and wealthy, and have want of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked.
18 Hmai loh a rhoh sui te lai hamla kamah lamloh nang kang uen. Te daengah ni na khuehtawn thai eh. Himbai bok neh na khuk daengah ni na tlingyal kah yahpohnah te a phoe pawt eh. Na mik te miksi han toi daengah ni na hmuh thai eh.
I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayst be rich; and white raiment that thou mayst be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness may not appear: and anoint thine eyes with eye-salve, that thou mayst see.
19 Kai loh ka lungnah atah muep ka toeltham tih ka ueih sak. Thatlai tangloeng lamtah yut laeh.
Whomsoever I love, I reprove and chasten: be zealous therefore and repent.
20 Thohka ah ka pai tih ka khoek coeng he. Khat khat loh ka ol te a yaak tih thohka te a ong atah anih taengla rhep ka kun vetih anih taengah buh ka vael ni. Anih khaw kai taengah a vael ni.
Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if any one hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 Kai khaw ka noeng tih amah kah ngolkhoel dongkah a pa taengah ka ngol bangla aka noeng long tah ka ngolkhoel sokah kamah taengah ngol ham ka paek ni.
To him that overcometh I will grant to sit with me on my throne, as I also have overcome, and am set down with my Father on his throne.
22 Mueihla loh hlangboel taengah a thui te hna aka khueh loh ya saeh,” a ti.
Let him, that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
