1 “To the messenger of the church in Ephesus write: “These things says He who holds the seven stars on His right hand, who walks about in the midst of the seven golden lampstands:
ⲁ̅ⲥϩⲁⲓ ⲙⲡⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⲛⲧⲉⲕⲕⲗⲏⲥⲓⲁ ⲉⲧϩⲛ ⲉⲫⲉⲥⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲛⲉⲧⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡϫⲟⲉⲓⲥ ⲡⲉⲧⲁⲙⲁϩⲧⲉ ⲙⲡⲥⲁϣϥ ⲛⲥⲓⲟⲩ ϩⲛ ⲧⲉϥϭⲓϫ ⲛⲟⲩⲛⲁⲙ ⲡⲉⲧⲙⲟⲟϣⲉ ϩⲛ ⲧⲙⲏⲧⲉ ⲛⲧⲥⲁϣϥⲉ ⲛⲗⲩⲭⲛⲓⲁ ⲛⲛⲟⲩⲃ
2 ‘I know your works, yes the labor, and your endurance, and that you cannot stand those who are evil. And you have tested those who claim to be apostles and are not, and found them to be liars;

5 So think about from where you have drifted and repent, and do the first works, or else I will come at you swiftly and remove your lampstand out of its place—unless you do repent.

10 Do not fear any of the things that you are about to suffer: Take note, the devil is really about to throw some of you into prison, so that you may be tested, and you will have an affliction of ten days. Stay faithful until death and I will give you the crown of life.’
