< Revelation 3 >
1 And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.
Sardis khaw awhkaw khan ceityih a venawh qee lah: Vawhkaw awikhqi vetaw Khawsa Myihla khqih ingkaw aihchi khqih ak bawmkung ak awikhqi ni. Na ik-oeih sainaak ce sim nyng, ak hqing a myihna tyk hlai hyk ti thi hyk ti.
2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.
Tho lah! ak thi tawm na pum ce tha awm sak lah, ka Khawsa a mik huh awh na ik-oeih sainaak ak soep te am hu nyng.
3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
Cedawngawh, ik-oeih na huh ingkaw nang zaak ce poek lah, ce ak awi ce ngai nawhtaw zut lah. Cehlai amna thawh awhtaw, quk-ai a myihna law kawng nyng, ityk awh na venawh ka law tice am sim kawp ti.
4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.
Cehlai bainaak amak kawlh thlang a khoeh Sardis khaw awh awm hyn hy. Ce mihkhqi cetaw hik bawk bai kawm usaw kai ing cet haih kawng unyng, cekkhqi cetaw kai mi ceh aham ak tyng khqi ni.
5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.
Cekkhqi myihna ak noeng thlangkhqi taw hik bawk bai lawt kawm uh. Anih ang ming ce ityk awh awm hqingnaak cabu khui awhkawng am hqe pe kawng, ka Pa ingqawi khan ceityih haiawh ang ming ce kai ing simpyi lawt kawng.
6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
U awm haa ak ta ingtaw, Myihla ing thlangboelkhqi venawh ak kqawn peek awi ce za seh.
7 And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth;
Philadelphia khaw awhkaw thlangboel khan ceityih a venawh qee lah: Ve ak awikhqi vetaw a kut awh David a cabi ak awm, thlakciim ingkaw ak thym ak awi ni. Anih ing am awng ce u ingawm am khai thai kawmsaw, a khaih ce u ingawm am awng thai kaw.
8 I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name.
Na ik-oeih sainaak ce sim nyng. Toek lah, U ingawm ama khaih thai chawh ak awng qu ce na haiawh ta law nyng. Nak tha am awm hlai hy, kak awi ce khoem tiksaw kang ming ce am oelh hyk ti.
9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.
Setan a sinakawk na ak awmkhqi, Juda thlang na am awm loei saw ak sa qu thlangkhqi qaai ak kqawnkhqi ce – nangmih a venawh law sak kawng nyngsaw nangmih a khawkung awh khuk sym sak kawng, nangmih kai ing ni lungna nyng tice cekkhqi ing sim kawm uh.
10 Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.
Kak awipeek ce kawdungnaak ing nami yh a dawngawh kai ingawm khawmdek pum khanawh ak awm thlangkhqi noekdak aham ak law hly kawi kyinaak khuiawh kawng ni hoep khqi kawng.
11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.
Law nai hawh kawng. U ingawm boei lumyk ce ama ni qawtnaak aham na taak ce ak cakna tu khak lah.
12 Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, [which is] new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and [I will write upon him] my new name.
Ak noeng thlang cetaw ka Khawsa a tempul ak tung na sai kawng nyng. Cawhkawng ityk awh awm am cehta voel kaw. Anih a dawngawh ka Khawsang ming ing ka Khawsa a khawk bau ming ce qee pe kawng nyngsaw; kang ming thai ce awm qee pe kawng.
13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
U awm haa ak ta ingtaw, thlangboelkhqi venawh Myihla ing ak kqawn peek awi ce za seh.
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
Laodicea khaw awhkaw thlangboel khan ceityih a venawh awh qee lah: Ve ak awikhqi taw Amen, ypawm ingkaw dyihthing thym, Khawsa ik-oeih sai ak ukkung ak awikhqi ni.
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
Na bibinaak ce sim nyng, ding awm am ding tiksaw ling awm am ling hyk ti. Pynoet na na awm qep aham ngaih hlai nyng!
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Na oih kqoeng a dawngawh – ling awm am ling hyk ti, ding awm am ding hyk ti – kam khak khuiawh kawng ni sa tawm hawh nyng.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
Namah ingtaw, ‘boei nyng, khawhthem awm ta nyng ikaw awm am ngoe voel nyng,’ tihyk ti. Ngaihak khawbing, qeen ak kap, khawdeng, mikhyp ingkaw ak pum a zal na na awm ce am sim hyk ti.
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and [that] the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
Na boeinaak aham kai a venawh kaw sui mai awh a hloei ce ve thlai lah; chahnaak ak awm ak pum a zal na na awmnaak ce na singdahnaak aham hik bawk ve thlai lah; khaw na huhnaak thai aham miksi ve sak lah.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Ka lungnaak thlang ce toel nyngsaw cuk am kik nyng. Cedawngawh ak thym na awm nawh zut lah.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Ngai lah chawmkeng awh dyi nyng saw khoek nyng. U ingawm kak awi ce za nawh chawh ce am awng awhtaw, kun kawng nyng saw anih ing buh ai haih kawng nyng, anih awm kai a venawh awm lawt kaw.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Kai ing ka noeng a dawngawh ka Pa a ngawihdoelh awh ka ning ngawih haih amyihna, ak noeng thlang cetaw boei ngawihdoelh awh kai ing ngawih haih thainaak ce pe kawng.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
U awm haa ak ta ingtaw, Myihla ing thlangboelkhqi venawh ak kqawn peek awi ce za seh.
