< Revelation 3 >
1 ANd write vnto the Angel of the Church which is at Sardis, These things saith he that hath the seuen Spirits of God, and the seuen starres, I knowe thy workes: for thou hast a name that thou liuest, but thou art dead.
»In angelu cerkve v Sardah piši: ›Te besede govori on, ki ima sedem Božjih Duhov in sedem zvezd; poznam tvoja dela, da imaš ime, da živiš, pa si mrtev.
2 Be awake, and strengthen the things which remaine, that are readie to die: for I haue not found thy workes perfite before God.
Bodi oprezen in okrépi stvari, ki ostanejo, ki so pripravljene, da umro, kajti tvojih del nisem našel popolnih pred Bogom.
3 Remember therefore, how thou hast receiued and heard, and hold fast and repent. If therefore thou wilt not watch, I will come on thee as a thiefe, and thou shalt not know what houre I wil come vpon thee.
Spomni se torej, kako si prejel in slišal in trdno drži ter se pokesaj. Če torej ne boš stražil, bom prišel nadte kakor tat in ne boš vedel, katero uro bom prišel nadte.
4 Notwithstanding thou hast a few names yet in Sardis, which haue not defiled their garments: and they shall walke with me in white: for they are worthy.
Nekaj imen imaš celó v Sardah, ki si niso omadeževali svojih oblek; in ti bodo hodili z menoj v belem, kajti vredni so.
5 He that ouercommeth, shalbe clothed in white araye, and I will not put out his name out of the booke of life, but I will confesse his name before my Father, and before his Angels.
Kdor premaga, ta isti bo oblečen v belo oblačilo in njegovega imena ne bom izbrisal iz knjige življenja, temveč bom njegovo ime priznal pred svojim Očetom in pred njegovimi angeli.
6 Let him that hath an eare, heare, what the Spirite saith vnto the Churches.
Kdor ima uho, naj sliši, kaj Duh govori cerkvam.‹«
7 And write vnto ye Angel of ye Church which is of Philadelphia, These things saith he that is Holy, and True, which hath ye keye of Dauid, which openeth and no man shutteth, and shutteth and no man openeth,
»In angelu cerkve v Filadelfiji piši: ›Te besede govori tisti, ki je svét, tisti, ki je resničen, tisti, ki ima Davidov ključ, tisti, ki odpira in noben človek ne zapira; in zapira, pa noben človek ne odpira.
8 I knowe thy workes: beholde, I haue set before thee an open doore, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a litle strength and hast kept my worde, and hast not denied my Name.
Poznam tvoja dela. Glej, pred teboj sem postavil odprta vrata in noben človek jih ne more zapreti, kajti majhno moč imaš in ohranil si mojo besedo in nisi zanikal mojega imena.
9 Behold, I will make them of the Synagogue of Satan, which call themselues Iewes, and are not, but doe lye: beholde, I say, I will make them, that they shall come and worship before thy feete, and shall knowe that I haue loued thee.
Glej, prisilil bom te, iz Satanove shodnice, ki pravijo, da so Judje, pa niso, temveč lažejo; glej, prisilil jih bom, da pridejo in obožujejo pred tvojimi stopali in da spoznajo, da sem te vzljubil.
10 Because thou hast kept the woorde of my patience, therefore I wil deliuer thee from the houre of tentation, which will come vpon all the world, to trie them that dwell vpon the earth.
Ker si ohranil besedo moje potrpežljivosti, bom tudi jaz tebe obvaroval pred uro preizkušnje, ki bo prišla nad ves svet, da preizkusi tiste, ki prebivajo na zemlji.
11 Beholde, I come shortly: holde that which thou hast, that no man take thy crowne.
Glej, pridem hitro. Trdno drži to, kar imaš, da ti noben človek ne odvzame tvoje krone.
12 Him that ouercommeth, will I make a pillar in the Temple of my God, and he shall goe no more out: and I will write vpon him the Name of my God, and the name of the citie of my God, which is the newe Hierusalem, which commeth downe out of heauen from my God, and I will write vpon him my newe Name.
Tistega, ki premaga, bom naredil [za] steber v templju svojega Boga in ne bo več šel ven; in nanj bom napisal ime svojega Boga in ime mesta svojega Boga, ki je novi Jeruzalem, ki prihaja dol z neba od mojega Boga in nanj bom napisal svoje novo ime.
13 Let him that hath an eare, heare what ye Spirit saith vnto the Churches.
Kdor ima uho, naj sliši, kaj Duh govori cerkvam.‹«
14 And vnto the Angell of the Church of the Laodiceans write, These things saieth Amen, the faithfull and true witnesse, that beginning of the creatures of God.
»In angelu cerkve Laodikejcev piši: ›Te besede govori Amen, zvesta in resnična priča, začetek Božjega stvarstva;
15 I knowe thy woorkes, that thou art neither colde nor hote: I woulde thou werest colde or hote.
poznam tvoja dela, da nisi niti mrzel niti vroč. Želim si, da bi bil mrzel ali vroč.
16 Therefore, because thou art luke warme, and neither colde nor hote, it will come to passe, that I shall spewe thee out of my mouth.
Zaradi tega, ker si mlačen in nisi niti mrzel niti vroč, te bom izpljunil iz svojih ust.‹
17 For thou saiest, I am rich and increased with goods, and haue neede of nothing, and knowest not howe thou art wretched and miserable, and poore, and blinde, and naked.
Ker praviš: ›Bogat sem in okrepil sem se z dobrinami in ne potrebujem ničesar; ‹ pa ne veš, da si pomilovanja vreden in beden in reven in slep ter nag,
18 I counsell thee to bye of me gold tried by the fire, that thou maiest bee made rich: and white raiment, that thou maiest be clothed, and that thy filthie nakednesse doe not appeare: and anoynt thine eyes with eye salue, that thou maiest see.
ti svetujem, da kupiš od mene zlata, prečiščenega v ognju, da boš lahko bogat in belo oblačilo, da boš lahko oblečen in da se ne prikaže sramota tvoje nagote in svoje oči mazili z mazilom za oči, da boš lahko videl.
19 As many as I loue, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore and amend.
Kolikor jih imam rad, oštevam in karam. Bodi torej goreč in se pokesaj.
20 Behold, I stand at the doore, and knocke. If any man heare my voice and open ye doore, I wil come in vnto him, and will suppe with him, and he with me.
Glej, stojim pred vrati in trkam. Če katerikoli človek sliši moj glas in odpre vrata, bom vstopil k njemu in bom večerjal z njim in on z menoj.
21 To him that ouercommeth, will I graunt to sit with me in my throne, euen as I ouercame, and sit with my Father in his throne.
Tistemu, ki premaga, bom zagotovil, da sede z menoj na moj prestol, celo kakor sem tudi sam zmagal in sem s svojim Očetom poseden na njegovem prestolu.
22 Let him that hath an eare, heare what the Spirit saieth vnto the Churches.
Kdor ima uho, naj sliši, kaj Duh govori cerkvam.‹«
