Revelation 2
1 “Write this to the angel of the Ephesus church: This is what the one who holds the seven stars in his right hand says, the one who walks among the seven golden candlesticks:
Diani Kilisiti n yini yaaba, yaaba n ye Efesa po yaa maleko po ki yedi o: diidi ki le yua n muubi a ŋmabileleeda o najienu nni, ki go cuoni wula fidisantuan-kaani lelee siiga yeni yedi:
2 I know what you've accomplished, your hard work and perseverance. I know you can't tolerate evil people, and how you investigated those who claimed to be apostles but are not, and discovered they were frauds.
N bani a bontienkaala, leni a tuona, leni a juunli; n bani ke a kan tuo bi nibiadiba po. A den biigi yaaba n tua ke bi tie tondiba kinaa tie yeni, ki sua ke bi tie tuofadanba.
3 I know about your patience, and what you endured for my sake—and that you didn't give up!
A pia li juunli, a laa fala kelima n yeli po, ki naa den cedi baa waamu.
4 But I have something against you: you have neglected your first love.
Ama min fu leni a yaala, tie ke a ŋa a buakpiama.
5 So remember how far you've fallen—repent and go back to what you were doing at first. Otherwise I'll come to you and I will remove your candlestick from where it is—unless you repent.
Lanwani ŋan tiadi ŋan baa naani, ki lebidi a yama, ki go ya tiendi nani ŋan den kpa tiendi maama. Lani yaaka, n baa cua a kani ki tuadi a fidisantuankaanu ki ñani u u kaanu, hali a yaa lebidi a yama.
6 However, you do have this to your credit: you hate the actions of the Nicolaitans, just as I do.
Baa yeni, a pia line wani, kelima a nani nikolasa ŋoadikaaba bontienkaala, mini moko n nani yaala.
7 If you have ears, listen to what the Spirit is telling the churches. I will give to those who are victorious the privilege of eating from the tree of life, which stands in the Paradise of God.
Yua n pia a tuba, wan cengi mi Fuoma n tua Kilisiti n yini yaaba nitaana yaala. Yua n koani mi jama ki paadi n baa pa o wan ya ti di li miali tibu, yaabu n ye U Tienu ŋalijani diema nni bonluonkaala.
8 Write this to the angel of the Smyrna church: This is what the first and last says, the one who was dead and came back to life:
Diani Kilisitin yini yaaba similina po ya maleki po ki yedi o: Diidi ki le o kpialo leni o juodikoa, wani yua n den kpe, ki go ye ki fo yedi line:
9 I know the troubles you are going through, and how poor you are (but you are rich), and the abuse from those who say they are Jews but are not, but belong to Satan's synagogue.
N bani ŋan ye leni ya fala leni a luoma (ba ke a pia) n go bani yaaba n tua ke bi tie jufinba ki naa tie yeni, n maadi yi po tuofamaama, bi tie sutaani nitaanli yaaba.
10 Don't be afraid about what you are going to suffer. Yes, the devil will throw some of you into prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten days. Just remain faithful, even if it means death, and I will give you the crown of life!
Han da jie, ŋan baa le ya fala diidi sutaani baa kuani yi siiga bi nitianba li kadidieli nni lani ki biigi yi, bi baa waani yi fala dana piiga. ya tie nidugika, hali mi kuuma lani n baa pa ŋa li miali ya badifogiliga.
11 If you have ears, listen to what the Spirit is telling the churches. The second death will not harm those who are victorious.
Yua n pia a tuba, wan cengi mi fuoma n tua Kilisiti n yini yaaba nitaana yaala yua n koani mi jama ki paadi, mi kuliedima fala kan pundi o.
12 Write this to the angel of the Pergamum church: This is what the one holding the sharp two-edged sword says:
Diani Kilisiti n yini yaaba peligama po, ya maleki po ki yedi o: diidi yua n kubi ki jugisieñoaliedi manga n yedi line:
13 I know you're living where Satan has his throne, and that you have stayed true to me. You have not denied your trust in me, even when my faithful witness Antipas was killed right among you there where Satan lives!
N bani a ye kaanu, likani tie Sutaani balikalikaanu n ye naani, a kubi n yeli, ŋaa nia li dandanli, baa ban den kpa n nidugika anti pasa ya dana nni yi dogu nni Sutaani n ye naani.
14 But I have a few things against you: There are some among you who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak how to entrap the children of Israel by means of eating food sacrificed to idols and committing sexual sins.
Ama a pia min nani yaala a kani, li tie ke a pia a kani yaaba n ŋua balaama bangima, yua n den bangi balaaka ke o tulini isalele yaaba ke bi ŋmani ti padi nandi ki go conbi.
15 Similarly you also have some who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
Li go tie yeni, ke a moko pia a kani yaaba moko n ŋua nikolasa bangima.
16 So repent, or soon I will come to you and fight against them using the sword of my mouth.
Han lebidi a yama, lani yaaka, n baa cua a kani ke li kan waagi, ki koani leni laa niba leni n ñoabu jugisiega.
17 If you have ears, listen to what the Spirit is telling the churches. I will give the hidden manna to those who are victorious. I will give them a white stone with a new name written on it that nobody knows except those who receive it.
Yua n pia a tuba, wan cengi mi Fuoma n tua Kilisiti n yini yaaba nitaana yaala. Yua n koani mi jama ki paadi, n baa pa o ya mana n wuo, ki go pa o li tanpienli, ban diani li yepanli yaali ya po, oba kuli ki bani li kali yua n baa litanpienli bebe.
18 Write this to the angel of the Thyatira church: This is what the Son of God says, the one who has eyes like flaming fire and feet like polished brass.
Diani Kilisiti n yini yaaba tiatila po, ya maleki po ki yedi o: Utienu Bijua, yua ya nuni n nani u mupienu yeni, ke o taana mo tie nani ya kumoandi n ñuliti yeni, n yedi yaala n te na.
19 I know what you have accomplished, your love and faithfulness and service and perseverance, and that you are doing more now than when you first believed.
n bani a bontienkaala, leni a buama, a dandanli leni a todima nitoaba po, leni a juunli. ŋan go yuandi ki tieni ya tuonŋama yabi ki cie, a kpiala.
20 But I have something against you: you are allowing the woman called Jezebel who calls herself a prophetess to teach my followers, leading them astray into sexual sins, and to eat food sacrificed to idols.
Ama min fu leni a yaala yaapo tie a cedi ke ya pua n yi Jesabela, yua n tua ke o tie sawalipoalo, bangi n naacenba ki tulini ba, ke bi tiendi mi conconma, ki go ŋmani ti padinandi.
21 I gave her time to repent of her sexual sins, but she's not willing to repent.
N den puni o u yogunu wan lebidi o yama o conconma po.
22 So I'm throwing her into a bed together with her adulterous partners and they will suffer terribly unless they repent of what they have done with her.
Diidi, n baa lu o u duanu po, ki taani leni yaaba n conbi leni o kuli, ki waani ba o falabiado, kali bi lebidi bi yama bi tuona po.
23 I will put her children to death. Then all the churches will know that I am the one who examines thoughts and motives. I will repay each of you according to what you've done.
N ba cedi mi kuuma n kpa o bila, lani kilisiti n yini yaaba nitaana kuli baa bandi ke n tie yua n bigidi bi niba yantiana leni bi pala kuli, ki go baa pa yi siiga yua kuli o panpaani nani yi tuona n tie maama.
24 For the rest of you there in Thyatira who don't follow this teaching, who have not learned Satan's ‘deep depravities’ as they are called, I don't place on you any other burden. I say to you,
Yinba, leni Tiatila yaaba, yaaba n sieni kaa ŋoadi laa bangima, kaa bandi Sutaani ŋasiili, nani ban yi ba maama n yedi yi: N kan tuni yi tugitoali,
25 ‘Just hold on to what you have until I come.’
kali yin yaa kubi yin kubi yaala bonŋanla, hali min baa cua.
26 I will give authority over the nations to those who are victorious and who do what I say until the end.
Yua n koani mi jama ki paadi, ki kubi n tuona hali mi juodima, n baa dini o li bali, wan yaa die i nibuoli.
27 He will rule the nations with an iron rod, breaking them into pieces like clay pots. In the same way that I received authority from my Father,
O ba ti yaa gobidiba leni ti kudi yaa badi- gbianu, nani ban mudi ti tandi tiadi maama yeni. nani mini n ba, min ba li bali n Baa kani maama yeni.
28 I will give them the morning star.
n go ba ti pa o ki taŋaŋmabiga.
29 If you have ears, listen to what the Spirit is telling the churches.”
Yua n pia a tuba, wan cengi mi Fuoma n tua Kilisiti n yini yaaba nitaana yaala.
