Revelation 3
1 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Sardis write: These things says He who is having the Seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars: I have known your works, and that you have the name that you live, and you are dead;
Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Sad la. Di l' konsa: Men sa moun ki gen sèt Lespri Bondye yo ak sèt zetwal yo voye di ou: Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè. Mwen konnen tout moun konprann ou vivan. Men, ou mouri.
2 be watching, and strengthen the rest of the things that are about to die, for I have not found your works fulfilled before God.
Souke kò ou, bay ti rès lavi ou rete a fòs anvan ou fin mouri nèt. Paske, mwen wè sa w'ap fè a pa fin kòrèk devan Bondye mwen an.
3 Remember, then, what you have received and heard, and keep [it] and convert: if, then, you may not watch, I will come on you as a thief, and you may not know what hour I will come on you.
Chonje sa yo te moutre ou la. Chonje jan ou te resevwa li. Obeyi l', tounen vin jwenn Bondye. Si ou pa sispann dòmi, m'ap vini sou ou tankou yon vòlè, san ou pa atann.
4 You have a few names even in Sardis who did not defile their garments, and they will walk with Me in white, because they are worthy.
Men, gen kèk moun nan nou nan lavil Sad la ki te kenbe rad yo pwòp. Y'a mache ansanm avè m' ak rad blan yo, paske yo merite sa.
5 The [one] thus overcoming will be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Scroll of Life, and I will confess his name before My Father, and before His messengers.
Tout moun ki goumen jouk yo genyen batay la pral mete rad blan an sou yo. Mwen p'ap wete non yo nan liv ki gen non moun ki gen lavi a. M'ap rekonèt yo pou moun pa m' devan Papa mwen ak devan zanj li yo.
6 He who is having an ear—let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo.
7 And to the messenger of the assembly in Philadelphia write: These things says the Holy [One], the True [One], having the key of David, the [One] opening and no one will shut, and shutting and no one opens:
Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Filadèlfi a. Di l' konsa: Moun ki sen an, moun k'ap di verite a, moun ki gen kle wa David la nan men l' lan, moun ki lè li louvri pesonn pa ka fèmen, lè l' fèmen pesonn pa ka louvri a, men sa l' voye di ou:
8 I have known your works; behold, I have set before you a door having been opened, which no one is able to shut it, because you have little power, and yet have kept My word, and have not denied My Name;
Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè. Mwen konnen ou pa gen anpil kouraj. Malgre sa, w'ap kenbe pawòl mwen. Ou pa lage mwen. Mwen louvri yon pòt devan ou, pesonn p'ap ka fèmen li.
9 behold, I give from the synagogue of Satan—those saying themselves to be Jews, and are not, but lie—behold, I will make them that they may come and prostrate before your feet, and may know that I loved you.
Men, pou moun ki fè pati gwoup Satan an, bann mantò sa yo k'ap pran pòz jwif yo men ki pa jwif, m'ap fòse yo vin mete ajenou devan ou pou yo ka respekte ou. Se pou yo rekonèt se ou menm mwen renmen.
10 Because you kept the word of My endurance, I also will keep you from the hour of the trial that is about to come on all the world, to try those dwelling on the earth.
Menm jan ou te kenbe lòd mwen te ba ou lè m' te mande ou pou te pran pasians lan, konsa tou, m'a kenbe ou, m'a pwoteje ou nan malè ki pral vin sou tout latè a. Se va yon gwo eprèv pou tout moun ki sou latè.
11 Behold, I come quickly, be holding fast that which you have, that no one may receive your garland.
Anvan lontan mapral vini. Kenbe sa ou genyen an fèm pou pesonn pa wete rekonpans ou nan men ou.
12 He who is overcoming—I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he may not go outside anymore, and I will write on him the Name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, that comes down out of Heaven from My God—also My new Name.
Tout moun ki va goumen jouk yo genyen batay la, m'ap fè yo tounen yon gwo poto nan kay Bondye a. Apre sa, yo p'ap janm soti. M'a make non Bondye ansanm ak non lavil Bondye a, lòt Jerizalèm k'ap desann sot nan sièl la, sou yo. M'ap make lòt non mwen an sou yo tou.
13 He who is having an ear—let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Se pou tout moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo.
14 And to the messenger of the assembly of the Laodiceans write: These things says the Amen, the Witness—the Faithful and True—the Chief of the creation of God:
Ekri zanj legliz ki nan lavil Lawodise a. Di l' konsa: Moun ki verite a, moun k'ap di verite a jan l' ye a san bay manti, li menm ki sous tou sa Bondye kreye a, men sa li voye di ou:
15 I have known your works, that you are neither cold nor hot; I wish you were cold or hot.
Mwen konnen tou sa w'ap fè. Mwen konnen ou pa ni cho ni frèt. Pito ou te cho osinon ou te frèt.
16 So—because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am about to vomit you out of My mouth;
Men, ou kièd, ou pa cho, ou pa frèt. Mwen pral vonmi ou soti nan bouch mwen.
17 because you say—I am rich, and have grown rich, and have need of nothing, and have not known that you are the wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked;
W'ap plede di: Mwen rich, zafè m' ap mache byen. Mwen pa manke anyen. Pòdiab! Konnen ou pa konnen jan ou malere, jan ou nan gwo nesesite, jan ou pòv, toutoni ak tou de je ou yo pete!
18 I counsel you to buy from Me gold fired by fire, that you may be rich, and white garments that you may be clothed, and the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed, and with eye-salve anoint your eyes, that you may see.
Se poutèt sa, mwen ta ba ou konsèy achte nan men m' bon lò san melanj ki pase nan dife. Konsa ou va rich tout bon. Achte nan men m' tou rad blan pou mete sou ou pou moun pa wè jan ou toutouni. Sa se yon wont pou ou. Achte nan men m' tou renmèd pou mete nan je ou pou ou ka wè.
19 As many as I cherish, I convict and discipline; be zealous, then, and convert;
Moun mwen renmen se yo mwen korije, se yo mwen peni. Mete plis aktivite nan sèvis ou. Tounen vin jwenn Bondye.
20 behold, I have stood at the door, and I knock; if anyone may hear My voice, and may open the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me.
Koute. Men mwen kanpe la devan pòt la, m'ap frape. Si yon moun tande vwa m', si l' louvri pòt la ban mwen, m'a antre lakay li, m'a manje ansanm avè l', la manje ansanm avèk mwen.
21 He who is overcoming—I will give to him to sit with Me in My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father in His throne.
Tout moun ki goumen jouk yo genyen batay la, m'ap ba yo dwa chita bò kote m' lè m'a sou fòtèy mwen an, menm jan mwen menm mwen te goumen jouk mwen te genyen batay la, pou koulye a mwen chita bò kot Papa m' ki chita sou fòtèy li a.
22 He who is having an ear—let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.”
Se pou moun ki gen zòrèy pou yo tande tande sa Lespri Bondye a ap di legliz yo.
