< Revelation 3 >

1 “To the angel of the church in Sardis write: These are the words of the One who holds the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation for being alive, yet you are dead.
“Kyerɛw krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfo a ɔwɔ asafo a ɛwɔ Sardi no se: Eyi ne asɛm a efi nea ɔwɔ Onyankopɔn ahonhom ason ne nsoromma ason no nkyɛn. Minim nea woreyɛ. Minim sɛ woagye din sɛ wote ase, nanso woawu.
2 Wake up and strengthen what remains, which was about to die; for I have found your deeds incomplete in the sight of My God.
Enti nyan, na kanyan nea aka wɔ wo nkyɛn no na anwu koraa. Efisɛ mahu sɛ nea woayɛ no nnya nnii mu wɔ Onyankopɔn anim ɛ.
3 Remember, then, what you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know the hour when I will come upon you.
Kae nea wɔkyerɛɛ wo no ne sɛnea wotee no. Di so na twe wo ho fi wo bɔne ho. Sɛ woankanyan wo ho a, mɛba wo so sɛ ɔkorɔmfo, na worenhu bere ko a mɛba.
4 But you do have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments, and because they are worthy, they will walk with Me in white.
Nanso mo mu kakraa bi a wɔwɔ Sardi no mfaa wiase nkekae nkekaa wɔn ntade mu ɛ. Wɔbɛhyɛ ntade fitaa na wɔne me anantew, efisɛ ɛsɛ, wɔfata sa.
5 Like them, he who overcomes will be dressed in white. And I will never blot out his name from the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels.
Nea obedi nkonim no bɛhyɛ atade fitaa sɛ wɔn ara, na merentwa ne din mfi ateasefo nhoma no mu da. Na mɛda ne din adi wɔ mʼAgya no ne nʼabɔfo anim sɛ ɔyɛ me dea.
6 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Nea ɔwɔ aso no ntie nea Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo no.
7 To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of the One who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What He opens no one can shut, and what He shuts no one can open.
“Kyerɛw krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfo a ɔwɔ asafo a ɛwɔ Filadelfia no se: Eyi ne asɛm a efi nea ɔyɛ kronkron na ɔyɛ nokware na okura Dawid safe no nkyɛn. Nea obue a, obi ntumi nto mu na sɛ ɔto mu nso a, obi ntumi mmue no.
8 I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door, which no one can shut. For you have only a little strength, yet you have kept My word and have not denied My name.
Minim nea woyɛ. Minim sɛ wowɔ tumi kakra. Woadi me nkyerɛkyerɛ no so, nam so adi me nokware. Mabue ɔpon bi wɔ wʼanim a obi ntumi nto mu.
9 Look at those who belong to the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews but are liars instead. I will make them come and bow down at your feet, and they will know that I love you.
Tie! Kuw a ɔbonsam afa wɔn no, saa atorofo a wɔka se wɔyɛ Yudafo nanso wɔnyɛ bi no, mɛma wɔaba wʼanim abebu wo nkotodwe. Wɔn nyinaa behu sɛ medɔ wo.
10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is about to come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.
Esiane sɛ woadi me mmara so anya boasetɔ nti, sɛ ɔhaw a ɛreba wiase nyinaa de bɛsɔ asase so nnipa nyinaa ahwɛ no ba a, megye wo afi mu.
11 I am coming soon. Hold fast to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.
Mereba nnansa yi ara. Kora wʼagyapade, na obi anwia wo nkonim abotiri no.
12 The one who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will never again leave it. Upon him I will write the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God (the new Jerusalem that comes down out of heaven from My God), and My new name.
Nea obedi nkonim no, mɛyɛ no odum wɔ me Nyankopɔn asɔredan mu, na ɔremfi mu bio da. Mɛkyerɛw me Nyankopɔn din ne me Nyankopɔn kurow din a ɛyɛ Yerusalem foforo a ebefi ɔsoro, me Nyankopɔn nkyɛn aba no agu ne ho. Bio, mɛkyerɛw me din foforo agu ne ho.
13 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
Nea ɔwɔ aso no ntie nea Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo no.
14 To the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Originator of God’s creation.
“Kyerɛw krataa yi kɔma ɔbɔfo a ɔwɔ Laodikea asafo mu no se: Eyi ne asɛm a efi Amen a ɔyɛ ɔdanseni nokwafo a ɔyɛ biribiara a Onyankopɔn bɔe no sodifo no nkyɛn.
15 I know your deeds; you are neither cold nor hot. How I wish you were one or the other!
Minim nea woayɛ. Minim sɛ wonyɛ nwini nso wonyɛ hyew. Me pɛ ne sɛ anka wobɛyɛ mu baako.
16 So because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to vomit you out of My mouth!
Nanso esiane sɛ woyɛ boturobodwo, na wonyɛ hyew na wonyɛ nwini nti, merebɛte wo sɛ ntasu afi mʼanom.
17 You say, ‘I am rich; I have grown wealthy and need nothing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked.
Woka se, ‘meyɛ ɔdefo na manya me ho na mewɔ nea ehia me nyinaa.’ Nanso, wunnim hia a ahia wo ne mmɔbɔ a woyɛ. Woyɛ ohiani. Woda adagyaw, na wʼani afura.
18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, white garments so that you may be clothed and your shameful nakedness not exposed, and salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see.
Enti mitu wo fo sɛ tɔ sikakɔkɔɔ, sikakɔkɔɔ ankasa, fi me nkyɛn, sɛnea ɛbɛma woayɛ ɔdefo. Afei, tɔ ntade fitaa hyɛ na fa kata wʼanimguase adagyaw no so. Afei tɔ aduru gu wʼani so, sɛnea wubehu ade.
19 Those I love, I rebuke and discipline. Therefore be earnest and repent.
Mekɔ so twe wɔn a medɔ wɔn no nyinaa aso. Enti bɔ mmɔden na twe wo ho fi bɔne ho.
20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in and dine with him, and he with Me.
Tie! Migyina ɔpon no akyi rebɔ mu; sɛ obi te me nne na obue ɔpon no a, mɛba mu na me ne no adidi na ɔno nso ne me adidi.
21 To the one who overcomes, I will grant the right to sit with Me on My throne, just as I overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
Mɛma nkonimdifo no atena mʼahengua no ho, sɛnea madi nkonim nti, mete mʼAgya ahengua ho mprempren no.
22 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.”
Sɛ wowɔ aso a, ɛno de tie nea Honhom no ka kyerɛ asafo no.”
