To the angel who is in the church at Ephesus write; The one holding the seven stars in his right hand, the one walking about in the midst of the golden candlesticks, says these things;
2 I know thy works and [thy] labour, and thine endurance, and that thou canst not bear evil [men]; and thou hast tried them who say that themselves [are] apostles and are not, and hast found them liars;
I know your works, and your labor, and your patience, and that you are not able to bear the wicked; and you have tried those who say they are apostles, and are not, and have found them to be liars:
3 and endurest, and hast borne for my name's sake, and hast not wearied:
and you have patience and have borne with them for my name's sake, and have not fainted.
4 but I have against thee, that thou hast left thy first love.
But I have something against you, because you have left your first love.
5 Remember therefore whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works: but if not, I am coming to thee, and I will remove thy lamp out of its place, except thou shalt repent.
Remember therefore whence you have fallen, and repent, and do your first works; lest I come to you, and shall move your candlestick out of its place, if you do not repent.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the works of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
But you have this, that you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.
7 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him that overcomes, I will give to him to eat of the tree of life which is in the paradise of God.
Let the one having ears, hear what the Spirit says to the churches; to him who conquers I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God.
8 And to the angel of the assembly in Smyrna write: These things says the first and the last, who became dead, and lived:
And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write; The first and the last, who was dead, and is alive, says these things:
9 I know thy tribulation and thy poverty; but thou art rich; and the railing of those who say that they themselves are Jews, and are not, but a synagogue of Satan.
I know your tribulations, and your poverty, but you are rich; and I know the blasphemy of those who say they are Jews, and they are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
10 Fear nothing [of] what thou art about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days. Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give to thee the crown of life.
Fear not those things which you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to cast some of you into prison, that you may be tested; and you shall have tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you a crown of life.

Let the one having ears, hear what the Spirit says to the churches; The one conquering can never be hurt by the second death.
12 And to the angel of the assembly in Pergamos write: These things says he that has the sharp two-edged sword:
To the angel of the church in Pergamum write; The one having the sharp, two-edged sword says these things;
13 I know where thou dwellest, where the throne of Satan [is]; and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in the days in which Antipas my faithful witness [was], who was slain among you, where Satan dwells.
I know where you dwell, where the throne of Satan is: and you are holding fast my name, and did not deny my faith, in the days when Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwells.
14 But I have a few things against thee: that thou hast there those who hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a snare before the sons of Israel, to eat [of] idol sacrifices and commit fornication.
But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there those holding the teachings of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumblingblock before the sons of Israel, and to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication.
15 So thou also hast those who hold the doctrine of Nicolaitanes in like manner.
So you also have those in a similar manner holding the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
16 Repent therefore: but if not, I come to thee quickly, and I will make war with them with the sword of my mouth.
Repent; otherwise I am coming to you quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
17 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him that overcomes, to him will I give of the hidden manna; and I will give to him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no one knows but he that receives [it].
Let the one having ears hear what the Spirit says to the churches; unto the one conquering will I give to him of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone my new name having been written, which no one knows but the one receiving it.

I know your works, and your divine love, and faith, and ministry, and patience, and your works: the last more than the first.
20 But I have against thee that thou permittest the woman Jezebel, she who calls herself prophetess, and she teaches and leads astray my servants to commit fornication and eat of idol sacrifices.
But I have it against you, that you suffer the woman Jezebel, who says herself to be a prophet, and teaches and deceives my servants to commit fornication, and to cat things sacrificed to idols.
21 And I gave her time that she should repent, and she will not repent of her fornication.
And I gave her time that she might repent, and she does not wish to repent of her fornication.
22 Behold, I cast her into a bed, and those that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of her works,
Behold, I cast her on a bed, and those who commit fornication along with her into great tribulation, until they shall repent of her works.
23 and her children will I kill with death; and all the assemblies shall know that I am he that searches [the] reins and [the] hearts; and I will give to you each according to your works.
And I will slay her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am the one searching the reins and the hearts: and I will give to you each according to your works.
24 But to you I say, the rest who [are] in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say, I do not cast upon you any other burden;
But I say to you, the rest who are among the Thyatireans, so many as have not this teaching, whosoever have not known the depth of Satan, as they say; I cast upon you no other burden.
25 but what ye have hold fast till I shall come.
Moreover hold fast that which you have, until I shall come.
26 And he that overcomes, and he that keeps unto the end my works, to him will I give authority over the nations,
And the one conquering and holding my works until the end, I will give unto him authority over the nations:
27 and he shall shepherd them with an iron rod; as vessels of pottery are they broken in pieces, as I also have received from my Father;
and he will shepherdize them with an iron rod: as the potter's vessels are broken to pieces; as I have received of my Father:
28 and I will give to him the morning star.
and I will give unto him the morning star.
29 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
