Revelation 2
1 “To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These are the words of Him who holds the seven stars in His right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands.
angelo Ephesi ecclesiae scribe haec dicit qui tenet septem stellas in dextera sua qui ambulat in medio septem candelabrorum aureorum
2 I know your deeds, your labor, and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate those who are evil, and you have tested and exposed as liars those who falsely claim to be apostles.
scio opera tua et laborem et patientiam tuam et quia non potes sustinere malos et temptasti eos qui se dicunt apostolos et non sunt et invenisti eos mendaces
3 Without growing weary, you have persevered and endured many things for the sake of My name.
et patientiam habes et sustinuisti propter nomen meum et non defecisti
4 But I have this against you: You have abandoned your first love.
sed habeo adversus te quod caritatem tuam primam reliquisti
5 Therefore, keep in mind how far you have fallen. Repent and perform the deeds you did at first. But if you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.
memor esto itaque unde excideris et age paenitentiam et prima opera fac sin autem venio tibi et movebo candelabrum tuum de loco suo nisi paenitentiam egeris
6 But you have this to your credit: You hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
sed hoc habes quia odisti facta Nicolaitarum quae et ego odi
7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who overcomes, I will grant the right to eat from the tree of life in the Paradise of God.
qui habet aurem audiat quid Spiritus dicat ecclesiis vincenti dabo ei edere de ligno vitae quod est in paradiso Dei mei
8 To the angel of the church in Smyrna write: These are the words of the First and the Last, who died and returned to life.
et angelo Zmyrnae ecclesiae scribe haec dicit primus et novissimus qui fuit mortuus et vivit
9 I know your affliction and your poverty—though you are rich! And I am aware of the slander of those who falsely claim to be Jews, but are in fact a synagogue of Satan.
scio tribulationem tuam et paupertatem tuam sed dives es et blasphemaris ab his qui se dicunt Iudaeos esse et non sunt sed sunt synagoga Satanae
10 Do not fear what you are about to suffer. Look, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison to test you, and you will suffer tribulation for ten days. Be faithful even unto death, and I will give you the crown of life.
nihil horum timeas quae passurus es ecce missurus est diabolus ex vobis in carcerem ut temptemini et habebitis tribulationem diebus decem esto fidelis usque ad mortem et dabo tibi coronam vitae
11 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who overcomes will not be harmed by the second death.
qui habet aurem audiat quid Spiritus dicat ecclesiis qui vicerit non laedetur a morte secunda
12 To the angel of the church in Pergamum write: These are the words of the One who holds the sharp, double-edged sword.
et angelo Pergami ecclesiae scribe haec dicit qui habet rompheam utraque parte acutam
13 I know where you live, where the throne of Satan sits. Yet you have held fast to My name and have not denied your faith in Me, even in the day when My faithful witness Antipas was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
scio ubi habitas ubi sedes est Satanae et tenes nomen meum et non negasti fidem meam et in diebus Antipas testis meus fidelis qui occisus est apud vos ubi Satanas habitat
14 But I have a few things against you, because some of you hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to place a stumbling block before the Israelites so they would eat food sacrificed to idols and commit sexual immorality.
sed habeo adversus te pauca quia habes illic tenentes doctrinam Balaam qui docebat Balac mittere scandalum coram filiis Israhel edere et fornicari
15 In the same way, some of you also hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
ita habes et tu tenentes doctrinam Nicolaitarum
16 Therefore repent! Otherwise I will come to you shortly and wage war against them with the sword of My mouth.
similiter paenitentiam age si quo minus venio tibi cito et pugnabo cum illis in gladio oris mei
17 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who overcomes, I will give the hidden manna. I will also give him a white stone inscribed with a new name, known only to the one who receives it.
qui habet aurem audiat quid Spiritus dicat ecclesiis vincenti dabo ei manna absconditum et dabo illi calculum candidum et in calculo nomen novum scriptum quod nemo scit nisi qui accipit
18 To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: These are the words of the Son of God, whose eyes are like a blazing fire and whose feet are like polished bronze.
et angelo Thyatirae ecclesiae scribe haec dicit Filius Dei qui habet oculos ut flammam ignis et pedes eius similes orichalco
19 I know your deeds—your love, your faith, your service, your perseverance—and your latter deeds are greater than your first.
novi opera tua et caritatem et fidem et ministerium et patientiam tuam et opera tua novissima plura prioribus
20 But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching she misleads My servants to be sexually immoral and to eat food sacrificed to idols.
sed habeo adversus te quia permittis mulierem Hiezabel quae se dicit propheten docere et seducere servos meos fornicari et manducare de idolothytis
21 Even though I have given her time to repent of her immorality, she is unwilling.
et dedi illi tempus ut paenitentiam ageret et non vult paeniteri a fornicatione sua
22 Behold, I will cast her onto a bed of sickness, and those who commit adultery with her will suffer great tribulation unless they repent of her deeds.
ecce mitto eam in lectum et qui moechantur cum ea in tribulationem maximam nisi paenitentiam egerint ab operibus eius
23 Then I will strike her children dead, and all the churches will know that I am the One who searches minds and hearts, and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.
et filios eius interficiam in morte et scient omnes ecclesiae quia ego sum scrutans renes et corda et dabo unicuique vestrum secundum opera vestra
24 But I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned the so-called deep things of Satan: I will place no further burden upon you.
vobis autem dico ceteris qui Thyatirae estis quicumque non habent doctrinam hanc qui non cognoverunt altitudines Satanae quemadmodum dicunt non mittam super vos aliud pondus
25 Nevertheless, hold fast to what you have until I come.
tamen id quod habetis tenete donec veniam
26 And to the one who overcomes and continues in My work until the end, I will give authority over the nations.
et qui vicerit et qui custodierit usque in finem opera mea dabo illi potestatem super gentes
27 He will rule them with an iron scepter and shatter them like pottery —just as I have received authority from My Father.
et reget illas in virga ferrea tamquam vas figuli confringentur
28 And I will give him the morning star.
sicut et ego accepi a Patre meo et dabo illi stellam matutinam
29 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
qui habet aurem audiat quid Spiritus dicat ecclesiis
